Special to The journal.
Butte, Mont, Jan. 19.-Raising alfalfa to
furnish winter feed for wild animals Is the
striking feature Of the report Of the acting
superintendent Of the Yellowstone National park
for the year 1905 just made public.
From aSfeld near the Gardiner arch 100 tons
of fine hay will feed the antelope and other
animals. The hay has been stacked near the
soldiers quarters .Three years ago deer was
seldom seen anywhere about the Mammoth Hot
Springs, and only occasionally few tracks
could be seen in the snow showing where they
had crossed over the parade ground OF Fort
Yellowstone during the night.
AS matter Of experiment, and with the hope
that some Of these animals that passed thru
the post might be induced to come around where
they could be seen, few bales Of alfalfa hay
were scattered about the parade ground. the
result was remarkable. From the second day
after the hay had been put out about dozen
was doubled and from day to day the number
increased until finally they numbered consider
ably over 100. 1t was extremely interesting 70
| Zee how quickly these animals lost all rear OF
human beings, and even when the evening gun
| is fred within 100 yards Of them they pay little
or no attention to it, but show much more
interest in the lowering Of the flag from the
staff. which is located in the center OF their
feeding ground.
| The mountain sheep, which are supposed to be
| the widest Of all western animals, have become
even tanner and more fearless than the deer.
Last year 26,1ss tourists visited the park.
/ Held on Murder Charge.
Developments indicate that James Moylan.
| mine boss at the Gem mine, whose dead body
was found on the trail leading to the mine or
the morning of Jan. 8, and who was at first
thought to have met his death by falling ano
striking his head against boulder, was II
fact murdered. Frank Il. Curran, engineer al
the mine, and Roy Phillips, top man, have
been arrested and charged with the murder.
! The complaint against the two men is signes
by brother Of Moylan, who has been carrying
on an investigation Of his death. According t
the alleged facts presented to the county at
torney, Moylan as boss had trouble with the me,
under him. The brother charges that Currai
on several occasions threatened to kill Jame
Moylan and his brother says that day or tw,
before his death James Moylan had write,
him that both Curran and Phillips had threat
ened to take his life at the first opportunity.
When asked for the letter, however, William
Moylan claimed that he had destroyed 1t.

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT LEAVES
COLON ON SPECIAL TRAIN
FOR PANAMA.

Colon, Nov. 16-President Roose-
welt left the flagship Louisiana at 7:30
a. m. and landed shortly afterwards.
He was met by Canal Commissioner
Shonts, Chief Engineer Stevens, Gen
eral Manager Bierd of the Panama
railroad and other high officials. All
the school children of Colon were as
sembled in groups about the pier
where the president landed and sang
the "Star Spangled Banner and
America.
Some time later President and Seno-
"a Amadcr and the bishop of Panama
reached the spot and greeted Mr..
Roosevelt. The entire party then
boarded special train decorated with
flags and left Colon at $40, steaming
slowly in the direction of Panama in
order to enable the presidential par
ty to have a good look at all the points
Of interest along the route.
In order to carry out the presidential

lon and the shipping in port were
decorated with flags in honor of Presi-
dent Roosevelt's visit, but there was

DECLARED DEAD By COURTS.
Minneapolis Man Returns Home After
LONG Absence.

Minneapolis, Nov. 16.-John Baxter,
at one time engineer at central high
school in this city and for the past
ten years supposed to be dead, has
returned to the home of his family in
Minneapolis after extensive wander
ings on two continents in search of
gold. Now the relatives of Baxter
and others who participated in fu-
neral in his memory are wondering
whose was the body that figured as
the chief feature of that ceremony. {,
Bakers return not only shows the
funeral Of ten years ago to have been
illtimed so far as he was concerned,
but also upsets the judgment of two
courts which have pronounced him
dead. In suit brought by the sup
posed widow to collect on life in
surance policy of $4,000 the district
court decided in favor of Mrs. Baxter.
On appeal by the insurance company
this judgment was affirmed by the
state supreme court and the proofs of
Bakers death were found to be suf-
ficient. # II 49, r
