Washington, Jan. S.--The Senate for eign relations committee continued cons sideration of the Panama treaty to-day, reporting the fifteenth article in gen. eral discussion. of the convention.
 The amendments suggested by the Democrats provoked extended comment from Senators Morgan and Bacon. It became apparent in the course or the ses- sion that suggestions for alteration of the treaty would not be confined to the Democratic members of the committee.
 A purpose of strengthening the con yention was shown by number of Re- publicans, though no definite amend ments were offered. The effect of the dis cussion was to delay final action on the treaty without materially advancing the argument either for or against it.

Several Montana Irrigation Projects

Several Montana Irrigation Projects
 The government engineers have been ac- tive in studying the irrigation possibilities in Montana during the past season. Tn addition to the greah Milk River project. about which must has been written ana which will be taken up in this corres- pondence in detail later, investigations have been made of several other Montana projects. In the country south of the Milk River general reconnaissance has been in progress along the Sun River, the Musselshell River. and the Yellow stone, particularly near the mouth of the latter. It is. believed by the engineers, from the preliminary surveys accom- plished that lands can be reclaimed in eastern Montana and adjacent portions of North Dakota by diverting the waters of the Yellowstone River on the north bank in Montana. The Yellowstone is great stream, flowing nearly the entire length of Montana and emptying into the Missouri just after 1t crosses the Montana line in North Dakota.

officers of Calvary church asking him
to reconsider his decision declining
the call to the church. Mr. Lamson
said mo to all of these letters. For
several weeks he heard nothing more,
but last Wednesday he received an
other letter Offering him an increase

and unanimous invitations from the
church trustees, the deacons and the
church society, were also forwarded
to him. The church officials have
been unable to unite upon any other
man. In view of these facts Mr..
Lamson is again considering the call

well as the outsiders, have been wait
ing to learn the provisions of the
new deer law. The General Assemb.
ly, realizing that. the open season will
begin on Saturday, has rushed the
bill to it's enactment 1t had passed
both branches of the Legislature on
Wednesday. Owing to circumstances
relating tn time of passage the Gov
ernor could not sign the bill until
this morning. Game Commissioner,
II. G. Thomas, had his circular letters

be lost in informing the game wardens
and town clerks of the provisions of

to hunt deer in the State, and that
they shall take one deer only. No

circulation the older period Gals had

have watched it recently have noticed
an Improvement in its general charac-

number, two new departments have
been added.
One of these, THE World at

men and women and events of the
day, will be conducted, in the future.
by Alfred Henry Lewis, who is wide
ly known as writer of great strength
and virility. Mr.. Lewis ability tol
see things clearly is rivalled only by|
his knack of stating, in the simplest
and most direct fashion, the conclu \
sions he draws from them. This de-
partment is fully illustrated.
Another department, TO which ad !
ded attention seems to have beer
paid, deals with things theatrical and
dramatic. In this part Of the maya

Mr.. James Hrneker will predominate
There are also great number of full

UTAL WIFE BEA TING.

Elmira, N. Y, Oct. 22.-The worst
case of wife whipping in these parts
for long time occurred on Thursday
night when Joseph J. Riley, Draw
ny lather, brutally attacked his
wife, as result of dispute. He
knocked her down striking her with
his fists, then stripped off her cloth
ing and whipped her with heavy
whip into insensibility, using the
butt end of the implement. Her back
was badly cut by the whip. Not
satisfied with this torture he thrust a
red not iron into her mouth burning
out parts of the tongue. When she
was unconscious he left the house.
The woman now lies on hospital
cot suffering from her wounds and is
likely to die. The police did not
hear of the case until last night.
Riley is now in Jail and told his story
to the police and newspaper men,
City Physician Woodhouse says the
beating would have killed ar ordinary
man Riley is held to await tie
results of her injuries. The couple
had been married ten years. Mrs
Riley weighs about 100 pounds.
