Spotted Fever Again.

Ked Lodge, Mont, April 29.-The
Clarke Fork valley in the vicinity of
Bridger is evidently not to be free
from the scourge of the dreaded spot
ted fever this year. The first case has
appeared, the victim being rancher
named C. F. Peterson, who lives a
few miles south of Bridger. Mr.. Ped
erson, however, is not in serious
condition, and will doubtless recover.
He is attended by DIR. l.. A. Gates, of
Bridger, who has made careful study
OF the disease and who wrote an inter
esting article concerning his investi-
cation for the publication on spotted
fever issued by the United States ma
rine hospital corps a few months ago
In view of the fact that woodticks
are plentiful just now, the following
advice given in the above mentioned
publication seems timely: ''As soon
as person is bitten by tick, the IN
sect should be removed and the place
cauterized with 95 percent carbolic
acid. There is sometimes difficulty in
removing the tick, but by applying
ammonia, turpentine, kerosine or car
bolic acid and vaseline, it can usually
be detached without trouble.''

Actual cash balance. 81 500 So
The report shows that the finances
of the town are in gratifying condi-
tion. particularly in view of the fact
that during the past four months no
saloon licenses have been collected
which has entailed a loss of revenue
to the town of $3.50 per month or a
total of 500.
The regular salary bills and in
cidental expense bills were allowed
The bills for tree planting were not
presented to the old council. The
routine business having been des
patched the new mayor and aldermen
qualified and got right down to busi-
ness.
Mayor McMurry called for nomin-
ations for president of the council. J.
]. Howley, Louis Peterson and H. S.
Page were placed in nomination, MIR.
Howley being chosen. The mayor
then announced his appointments as
follows:

Kills the Birds, Too.

Helena, April 27.-"I am informed. -
said State Game Warden w. F. Scott
today, "that some of the people Of
Missoula and Ravalll counties. in their
efforts to rid themselves of the gopher
pest, are using poison known as
"Woodlark," or poison wheat. The
stuff is put up in cans and the ranch
ers sprinkle the deadly dose around
and near the earthly residence of the
gophers.
"The desired result is accomplished
where the gophers get hold Of the poi-;
son, but it has been found that thes
small birds and quail in the neighbor-$
hood where the stuff is used also, get s
hold of it and many of them have been
killed in this way. It is unlikely that !
the people who are using the poison
have any desire to kill the birds.
Rather, think, they have, in their,
zeal to rid themselves of the gophers. /.
left the birds out of their consider-s'
alton. should like to suggest that,
they confine the poison to the gopher,
burrows exclusively. In this way
they will undoubtedly accomplish the
same result and the birds will have,
been saved"

Has Spotted Fever.

Missoula, Mont, May 3.-John p.
Cleary. of Victor, arrived last night
from Anaconda, in response to a
message that his seven-year old
daughter, Esther. is seriously ill at
Victor with spotted fever. This is the
hrst case OF the kind to be reported in
the valley the present year. The child
will be brought to Missoula this morn
ing in the Bitter Root train and placed
in Saint Patrick's hospital. Doctor
Buckley will attend her.

Police Magistrate, c. G. Coulter. The
standing committees are:
Ways and Means-Howley, Coffey

On motion of Howley, April 80 being
the end of the fiscal year, the several
funds were transferred into a general
fund, from which $500 was re-trans-
ferred to the salary fund and $500 to
the street and alley fund, thus pro-
viding for the payment of all out
standing warrants.
AT this point the bills for trees and
labor incidental to planting and
|irrigating the same were presented
and referred to the auditing committee.
Chairman Howley footed them up and
found that the total was $166.5O. "A
discussion arose as to the advisa bility
of planting the trees, etc. Elk Alder
man Geo. Taylor addressed the coun-.
Gil. He favored disallowing the bills
and at some length and with consider
able heat stated the position of the
street and alley committee of the old
council which had so strenuously at
tempted to stop the work.
Alderman Howley presented the.
other side and declared that: "Never
before in the history of the town had
such sum of money been SO we'll
spent"
1t was pointed out that the trees had
been planted in conformance with a
resolution passed by the town council
last November anduwhich had never
been repealed; that trees had been an
issue in the spring campaign and that
the people had unmistakably expressed
themselves in favor of the project and
that the town council being legally
responsible there wasnothing else to
do but pay the bills.
Mayor McMurry thea, put the ques-
,tion as to whether or not the bills
should be allowed, theyvote resulting
as follows:
Ayes-Flaherty, CoHay, Howley and
Peterson.
Nays-Page.
The proposition was then declared
carried and warrants were ordered
drawn on the street and alley fund in
payne Mt of the same.
"A few ninItes later the council ad
5ourned.

RUr1ORED THAT BRANCH is To RE
EXTENDED TO Sites,
WILL PLACE HAMIL TON ON MAIN Line
Contract For Darby Extension Was
Let April 25-Dirt To Fly In
the Near Future.

The runor that the Northern Pacific
company is contemplating extending
the Bitter Root branch to the Clear
water country has it's latest revival
from story which was brought to
Mlssoula yesterday by one Of the we'll
known railroad contractors Of the
country who lives in Butte and who
does not want his name quoted. saws
the Missoulian. According to the story
OF this gentleman who has Just return
ed from an inspection of the ground
over which the new road will extend.
the Northern Pacific intends extend
ing the line distance of nine miles
further along the surveys which have
been made during the past year or so.
This is to be nomilally logging road,
but the specifications call for a road
bed Of full standard width and the
work will be done as we'll and with the
same care as is every mile Of road on
VIC bltlSI NOOl DTdnCN.
This Butte man gave it out that
nine miles is all of the roadbed which.
is subject to contract at the present,
out he left the impression that the
company may decide to extend the
road for considerable distance fur
ther before the snow is flying next
fall.
The general direction of the road
would indicate that the Northern Pa.
citic is gradually working toward the
Clearwater country and that it will
eventually build through the Nez Per-
ces pass and connect the rich district ,
surrounding Sites with the main line :.
of the Northern Pacific by means of
the Bitter Root branch and make Mis-
soula the central point from which I
that section is tapped, as is the case /,
with the Occur d'Alene branch. +
The fact that the road is being built |
as a logging spur" does not cool the
ardor or the enthusiastic people .of
this section who would hail with ioy
the completion Of the Sites branch,
1t is remembered by all of the oldtin-
ers that considerable part of. the.
road, which at present leads up the ],
valley, was built as logging groad.r
and from that it has developed antois
one of the very best feeders on THE en-.v
tire Northern Pacific systenf. ?ls %
AS it is at present the road Which !
the Northern Pacific has into Sites is
d round-a bout one and is not a desir-'
able one by any means. Should, thes
line in contemplation, whieh has ala.
ready been surveyed, be pushed Ito Il
reality it will mean that "a; country Il
rich in timber and mineral, with great q
agricultural possibilities as well, wilyt
be opened up and become directly trib. \
utary to this city, and Missoula would
have one more rich territory among :.
her natural tributaries. :.
Quite large number of the resi-.
ients of Missoula are of the opinion
hat the proposed extension is direct
result of President Elliott's visit to-
Missoula few weeks ago.
