WON'T USE ELK TEETH.
Butte Lodge Of Elks Refuses to En-
courage Slaughter.


A dispatch from Butte says in re-
gard to the movement among Elks'
lodges TO discourage the use of Elks'
teeth as emblems;
The Butte lodge of Elks is in re-
ceipt of a letter from Grand Exalted
Ruler Melvin, enclosing a copy of a
letter from President Roosevelt rela.
tive to reported destruction of elk
bv men gathering their teeth. Roose-
velt says 1t has been reported to him
that many elk had been slaughtered
for TO other purpose than to obtain
their teeth.
He expresses the hope that Elks
will take measures to discourage the
use of elk teeth as emblems. Mel
vim has taken the matter up with
the order throughout the country and
is urging the discontinuance of the
use Of teeth.
Many lodges have already taken
action, and the Butte lodge has
adopted resolution declaring against
the continuance of the use of teeth.
For several years hunters in tha
west have been making collections OF
elk teeth and holding them for an
advance in prices because of their
growing scarcity. One man at Bill
ings has collection of many thou
sands. The declaration Of the Elks
lodges against their continued use
may cause a drop in the market
price.
