Military band last night. F. T. Roat,
who has acted very efficiently as Sec

Although Mr.. Roat's resignation is
somewhat of blow to the organiza-
ton, in George Chambers. appointed
by President Fegan to fill the unex-

Murdo to Have Saloons.

Murdo, August 10 Because the
town board refused to approve the
bonds of the saloon keepers whose
bonds the county commissioners OF
this Iyman county, approved, Muir
do has been without saloons since
July /. Under the new law Murdo
is entitled to but two saloons and
there had been four heretofore. 1t
was a matter of interest as to which
would be given the license. The
county commissioners approved the
bonds of Powell 6 Ellsworth and
Clyde M. Mcdonnell. When 1t came
to the point when the town board
was to approve the bonds it would
not accept the bonds of the two
above mentioned saloons unless the
county commissioners approved the
bonds Of AL Schrader. The rEsllt
was that on July 1, 1907, all five
saloons closed their doors and re-
manned closed. Mcdonnell finally Sc
secured the approval of his bonds by
the town board and opened for bust
ness. 1t is thought that the town
will approve the bonds of Powell &
Ellsworth before long.

New Designs for Coins.

Philadelphia anuminatists have nc
ceived with interest the announce
ment that new designs for United
States coins by the artist August st.
Gaudens, have been accepted by the
government. Three denominations
will be affected, the double eagle,
the eagle and the bronze cent. A
radical change is made in the de-
sign Of the cent, and though the In
dian head was retained it will bear
.;little resemblance to the old one
and it is expected to be more charac-
teristic of the head of an American
Indian with real head dress instead
of the present design.
The present Indian head is really
a Caucasion type, the face having
been posed for by a little daughter OF
James M Longacre, the engraver Of
the Philadelphia mint, who designed
the present penny in 1859.
On the diverse of the eagle anG
dougle eagle the head of liberty is
retained in idealiZed form. On the
reverse of the twenty dollar gold
piece which was also designed by Mr.
Longacre in 1S49 is an erect eagle
but of new design.
More radical changes are noted il
the design for the ten dollar gold
coin. While the diverse still shows
the head of liberty, on the reverse is
a flying eagle closely modelled after
the pattern Of the dollar and hall
dollars of 1886 and 1888.
Christian Gobrecht, who designed
these cdins, used his model, Peter
the live eagle, known as the min,
bird" which having it's home at the
mint in this city, flew all over town
returning each night to roost at the
mint, and which was afterward kill
ed by being caught in the machinery
of the plant.

ARE THE BEST
TIMBER TREES
How the Government Studies Them
for the Benefit of Forest Owners
and the Public.

Timber owners and manufacturers
will be interested in the results Of
the detailed studies of commercial
timber trees which he Forest Service
of the U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture is making. These studies are
not confined exclusively to the we'll
known trees of recognized value, but
owing to the rapid decrease in the
supply of our valuable woods, in
clude those cheaper woods whose
properties are impekfectly known.
Such studies of the tupelo gum and
overcome the common prejudice
against these species and have added
materially to their commercial i'm
portance.
Commercial tree studies begin will
the tree in the forest and follow i
all the way to the finished produc
in the market. The intermediate
steps are many and complex, but
little explanation of them may no
be amiss, since they typify the felt
methods Of a forest investigation.
The selection of a suitable plac'
is the first step. In this the aim !
to obtain average conditions as ia
as possible. When the range of TIL
species to be studied is small, on
locality may be sufficient, but gen
orally it is necessary to take at leas
two localities, the data from whic'
If similar, can be thrown togethe
or, if markedly unlike, kept separ
ate for different regions within tn
range Of the species. For example
the yellow poplar, or tulip-tree, ha
a very wide range, but a study OF it
growth and form would show yer
different results in tn North and i
the South.

Dcadwood Guys Are E-Z-Marks.

Deadwood, practically isolated
from civilization, is a harvest field
for sharks of all kinds. Having no
connection with the outside world
aside from a telephone line and once
in a while a train over the old Elk
Horn Railroad, the residents of the
Green Front" town in the gulch
fall easy prey to the Oldest kind of
graft and flim-1lam games.
The local paper published the fol-
lowing account of how near one of
their e-z-marks came to being
touched" 1t says:
"Old in the lore of the Hills, yet
young in the wiles Of a woman's
way, is a condition that almost cost
an oldtime prospector, who is we'll
known here, a pretty penny. He
was on his way home from Deadwood
where he just put through a deal for
some claims and received a cash per
cent, and, returning by way of a
gypsy camp, the fantastic dress of
the darkskinned m caught his
eye and he determined that his palm
must be read. Money was jinglins
pleasantly in his jeans and he crossed
the lot to the dirty camp. There was
a smile Oh the lips of the old man as
he held out a horny hand for the in
spection Of the rowing seeress, anc
he failed to catch the flash Of the

Wreck at Cottonwood.

The Bad River News says that a
wreck OF small proportions occurred
at Cottonwood last Friday. An emp
.ty gravel train backed down from
the west at full speed and struck
four empty gravel cars standing OF
the main track. Empty cars were
ditched and piled about in true
wreck-itke confusion, several being
reduced to kindling wood in the pro-
cess. The tender of the moving train
was thrown from the track and con-
siderabsy smashed up. Aside from the
damage done to the company's prop
erty, a brakeman was seriously in
jured, but the nature and extent of
his injuries have not yet been re-
ported.

EARLY NORTHWEST VOYAGES.
Some Account of the Arctic Trips
That Have Been Made.

Beginning with the American dis
coyeries of John Cabot in 1897, the
search for the northwest passage was
for many years the object of rival ex-
petitions from Denmark, England,
France and Portugal, says A. W.
Greedy, in the Century. It was Frobish-
er, however, who in 1576-7S first gave
a distinct national character to the
quest. John Davis of Davis strait,
followed in three voyages, 1858, and
then, in 1912, came the illustrious and
hapless Henry Hudson, whose motto
was that explorers should achieve
what they had undertaken or else give
reasons wherefore it will not be-"
