SHEDDING HIS SKIN.
Strange Freak Of Nature, Montana
Man Is the Victim

Philipsburg, Mont, Aug. 3.-John III
Price, superintendent of the Gold Reef
mines, has just finished shedding his
skin. 1t is very peculiar piece of ma
lures work, the cause of which the med
zeal profession has so far been unable
to explain.
Some years ago, by special request
Mr.. Price went to Chicago where emf
nent physicians from but no solution OF
the cause of the phenomenon process
at the Institute of Natural Sciences
went to Chicago, where eminent physi.
clans from was obtained.
The shedding of the skin of Mr.
Prices entire body is complete, including
the nails on his fingers and toes. The
process lasts from three to five days. At
its approach Mr.. Price becomes quite i'll,
has high fever and the skin over his
entire body apparently dries up.
AS soon as new skin formed under
meath which usually requires two days,
the old skin peels off and Mr.. Price feels
rejuvenated, with a skin as tender as
that of babe.
Until the new skin hardens, Mr. Price
is obliged to exercise much care to pre-
vent its breaking. Since coming to Mon.
tana over thirty years ago Mr. Price has
shed his skin annually at this time of
the wear.

is it not fact" asked Mr.. Mana
han, that in making an examination of
railroad accounts that lawyer or lay
mind as far as railroads are concerned,
needs the services of an expert account
ant in examining railroad records ?"
Attorney Severance, for the railroads,
objected to. the question, but Commits
sioner Mills overruled the objection.
"A lawyer in my Office" replied Mr..
Stickney, would have great difficulty in
finding anything unless directed to it.,
and an expert accountant would be of
little aid unless he were experienced in
railroad accounting"
1t is probable Mr.. Manahan will use
this statement of President Stickeny to
press his point that the commission
modify their original order for an exam
nation of railroad accounts to permit
him to have an experienced assistant.
L. a. Robinson, secretary and auditor
of the Minnesota Transfer company, sub
mitted statement which had been pre-
viously called for by Mr.. Manahan. 1t
showed the tonnage transferred during
the past year at the transfer and used
in dividing expenses among the ten
ant companies was S,737,2 tons. Ton
mage for the Northern Pacific was 2,203,-
SAG; expenses of the Northern Pacific.
$l4G,7 69.4S. Tonnage of st. Paul road,
| ,l6l ,993; st. Paul expenses, $S0,346.
The commissioner held long eXecu-
tive conference with the attorney gen
eral, at which the formal drafting of
more specific order relative to eXamin-
ing of railroad records was the subject.
1t is believed Mr. Manahan's desire for
an expert assistant and the commits
sion's legal right to make such a con-
cession is the sticking point" of the
question.

charges i'm one case the rebate amount
ing to $1,000 | believe the 1905 profits
of the Great Northern can be shown to
be three times as much as Mr.. Far
rington reported. l believe the same
is true of the Milwaukee road"
He then asked for an order that the
examinations of the railways be per-
mitted, which ORDER he said, was fully
within the powers of the commission
As to Mr. Stickney's offer to permit
the Gerat Western to be examined, he
asserted Mr.. Stickney had not word
to say, that he was but a witness, and
must consent to whatever the railroad
commission ordered. He was asked to
specify the books he wanted, but in
sisted this was an impossibility.
81 want every record which sustains
the figures offered in evidence" was the
answer. ''And, further, | frankly admit
that i will make it a point of issue,
if necessary, that do not have to speci-
fly the exact books"
Mr.. Severance then took the floor and
replied in biting language to the sharp
words Manahan had uttered. 81 ask, he
said, chat the dirty, low, slanderous
language used against Senator Davis,
who cannot speak for himself, being
dead, be struck from the record" CThe
stenographer informed him that the
words had not been reported.) "Coun-
sci has asserted that | am here in in
terests of the coal rates. If he has any
standing here, representing this nebulous
affair, called the Minnesota Shippers as
ISOLATION, he might as well confine HIM
self to the truth We will welcome a
proper examination by the railroad COM
mission.
Commissioner Mills then spoke. "The
commission is advised" he said, "by the
department of the attorney general that
it has no authority to send Mr. Mana.
han or anyone else outside of the COM
mission to make an examination OF the
railroad offices. But we think it proper
that the attorney for the associations
here have a right to examine the books
of the railroads to verify the figures
which have been offered. We therefore
order that Mr. Manahan be permitted
to make such examination in company
with our examiner, or in lien of grant
ing this, that the railroads produce all
their books here in evidence Aug. 6 to
support the evidence they have offered"
After some discussion the formal or
der was then drafted.
At about this stage of the proceed
ings Mr. Manahan took the floor and
apologized for his remarks about Senator
Davis. "But | wish what l said about
the attorney present" he concluded, "to
stand.'
''That suits me perfectly" responded
Mr.. Severance.
The commission adjourned to Satur-
day morning.

READY FOR USE.
Finishing Touches Being Put on New
Fair Grounds.

From Saturdays Daily.
The new fair. grounds will be ready for
use by Monday The track is receiv-
ing it's finishing and leveling up, and
work is being rushed on the grand stand
and stalls. Those of our citizens who
have not seen the grounds will certainly
be pleased with them when they do see
them. The plans were laid out on lib
eral scale, and the work has been well
done. Great credit for this is due to
the management, and especially to Presi-
dent Atchison, who has spent great
deal of time in looking after the de-
tails.
1t is the intention of the management
to plant a number of trees on the
grounds and place row of willows on
the northwest side. As the grounds are
practically treeless now, this will aid
much to the appearance.
1t is expected to put up floral hall this
year if enough money can be collected
for the purpose. If not, huge tent will
be used.
