"We are delighted with your beau

probable that when our pleasure tour
is completed, some of US will return
and make purchases. We are mostly
on pleasure bent now. however, and
intend to see every acre of the coun-
try over which we travel. Jamestown
is the prettiest place we have visited
thus far, and your citizens have every
reason to be proud of the city they =
havve reared. We leave on the morn

journey again tomorrow night at
Miles City. We are devoting three

the land, the local authorities say,

conditions relating to the road and
has since endea vored to do away with
the thorofare, and the matter has
been before the council on numerous
occasions.
This spring Capt. McGinnis p]owed
his land and included the obnoxious
road In the operation. Flax was sown
but the farmers journeying back and
forth ignored the fact and continued
to use the original course of the trail.
x For several days past Capt. Nc
Ginnis has had men busy carrying
lumter and boulders to points on the
hill.ssA formidable barricade was
constructed and a sign placed on the
bridge leading to the hill announcing
that the road was closed for public
traffic. The American flag was also
raised over the barricade. Upon
being Informed Of the barricade

tury. and half this flag has trium-
phantly floated in honor, beautiful
token of liberty. It has never been
borne on an oppressive mission, nor
ever lowered in disgrace. The de
tense of the flag was a soldiers mis-
sion, and the preservation Of it Is
the mission of every American citi-
zen. There Is perhaps no inanimate
object on the face of the globe with
more expressive life than the flag of
our country. 1t seems to be eloquent
that all may understand. When it

In 4 serial article on American auto
mobile construction The AutomOtor
Journal of England says in relation to
light steam vehicles: The light and
flexible frame of runabout, which
is all that is wanted OH smooth town

the only thing which will stand the
bad roads of the United States. 1t
does not follow that it is the best ar
rangement for English roads. Per-
haps it will be found that more

hard English road than would the

remarkable story concerning q goose
on his farm. He states that he is i'll
the habit of counting his geese and put

but on the night Of the great blizzard
one goose was missing and could not
be accounted for until few days ago,
when he was shoveling apple Of snow
out of his stable yard at the scar OF
his barn. AS lie reached the bottom
of the drift his shovel struck against
something soft. Upon investigation
he located his missing goose, which
had been covered up in the snow for
more than six weeks without anything
to eat or. drink. He states that the
goose was still alive, but very Saunt
and weak from the exposure and abb
stinence from food He took the goose
10 the house and cared for it day or
