GRAY HAIRED
VETERANS IN Line
Forty-first Parade of the G. A. R.
in Saratoga a Stirring Sight.
AGED SOLDIERS MARCH IN RAIN
Traversed a Mile Through Village
Streets, While Thousands, With
Uncovered Heads, Watched the
FaIteringIines and Old Banners.

Saratoga, N. Y.-The Grand Army
of the Republic held it's parade-its
f~orty-frst. Ten thousand limping,
gray haired veterans, the remnant of
the army, whose scores of thousands
passed in review at the national capt.
tai when the war was, over, braved a
driving storm to march once more
beneath their battle flags. As UNI
mindful of the storm as in the days
of "'61," when youth and vigor and
love of the flag knew no physical
bounds, these dwindling thousands
passed once more in review.
While scores dropped out when the
rain began to fall the ranks held their
line and braved the driving storm as
If again going to their places in the
front of battle. The rain poured
with steadily increasing force as they
marched, but through the drenching
torrents they kept on. Few there
were who even held umbrellas. For
an hour and more the old soldiers
plodded on between lines of cheering
people as plucky as themselves, keep
ing step to the music.
Governor Charles E. Hughes, his
military staff, the national officers of
the Grand Army and distinguished
visitors stood On the reviewing stand,
poorly shielded from the driving
storm.
When the last rank had passed in
review the rain ceased, the skies
cleared and the u broke out. The
dripping but undaunted old soldiers
found their ways to lodging places,
satisfied that such a trife IS a driv-
ing rainstorm had no ore arrested
their onward march than it had in the
days of
The parading distance was reduced
to mile, the shortest ever fixed
for the national encampment. For
the first time the parade was limited
to members OF the Grand Army in
stead of being open to all survivors
of the war.
The village was ablaZe with the
national colors, covering the fronts
of buildings, festooned at every con
yenient point, strung in rows at short
intervals across the streets and COM
pletely covering the interior of the
great convention hall where the ses-
sions of the encampment ere held.
One of the features of the parade was
the presence Of a big flag which COW
cred the body of General Grant on
its way from Mount McGregor to the
tomb. { In custody of the Gren-
adler Guard, commanded by Colonel
A. s.. Fowler, of Little Rock, Ark,
of which every man was we six
feet tall, and each represented one
of the forty-fve departments of the
G. A. r., this old flag brought up the
rear.

MAY GET JAMESTOWN SITE.
Believed That Exposition Co. VIII
Fail to Repay Government Loan.

Norfolk, Va.-No statement was
forthcoming regarding the failure of
the jamestown Exposition Company
to remit to the Government an &C
count of its $1,000, 900 loan.
1t is a foregone conclusion in the
minds of many that the exposition
will neve be able to repay this loan
and that the Government will get the
site of the exposition for a naval
training station.
The exposition is now going along
with a good attendance, but the re-
ceipts are not up to what had been
expected. The explosion is having
trouble collecting concession money.

the greatest excitement at the Jap

are accepted as indicating that the

In San Francisco. The fact that
Baron Ishii, Director of the Bureau

had a narrow escape from a mob fred

much commented upon as indicating
the intensity of the bitterness in Can

anything manifested in the United

BREAK CANAL RECORD
Northern Pacific Engineers Move More
Material During October Than
Government Workers on

Much has been said recently as to wl,a,
is being done by the government, on the
Isthmus of Panama in the construction OF
the canal, and in an article which appear
ed a short time ago in the Literary Digest
under the caption, "Outdoing Expectations
at Panama." the writer referred, with {,
good deal OF proper pride, to the fact that
( 1868, 72o cubic yards OF material had been
moved during the month of October This
was, without doubt, credit to American
engineering ability and methods, and while
the writer of the article looked upon it as
representing stupendous task and an I'M
usual amount of excavation, it is not SO if
one stops to measure the feat by similar
feats performed on some American rail-
ways in these days of grade revision and
general reconstruction.
The reader need no, 90 far from home
to learn that during exactly the same period
the Northern Pacific railway moved .s,4s2,-
o2S cubic yards Of material almost double
tina, moved by the: Panama canal engineers
in new work now .under. way on 1that
great system.
While this work was going on the usual
heavy treigh, and passenger traffic was
moved without any serious inconvenience
from this cause The figures afford an en-
trenaely interesting comparison. and show
at single glance the tremendous volume
of work being done by the Northern Pacific
in improving its facilities to meet the new
conditions.
This work is not confined to any one
state, bu1 includes the entire Northern
Pacific country in the states of Wisconsin,
Minnesota, North Dakota Montana Idaho,
Washington and Oregon-from the Great
Lakes to Puget Sound and the Pacific
ocean--and includes double tracking, re-
construction OF single track to conform to
new and easier grades and curvatures. re-
placing old bridges with new and more
substantial ones of steel and concrete, en-
larging yards. new terminal facilities. etc.
Another item of interest is the fac, that
the Northern Pacific railway is carrying
over portions of its single track main line
as heavy freight tonnage as is handled
by many of the railways east of Chicago
over their double track lines.

possesses in sufficient degree the size

THE "oLD TIMERS" LAMENT
BY The Terry Tribune Poet

Been trying to study it out tout what
I'd better do
Stay RICH, here in OF Montan or Just pull
up and say skidoo
Had things fixed about to suit me fore this
homestead crowd came in;
Raisin dogies was pleasure fore they
narrowed up the range
But this row about the fences and this
blowing up for grain
Makes fellow think its needful to be
hunting up change.
Thought at frs, it wouldn't last long and
they'd sooh be getting out,
But some of these here fellows seem to
know what they're about.
There's some chaps up on the bench lands
with some rafting crops this year,
They keep fencing up their quarters and
blowing more and more
Spite of all man can tell EN- bout how
dry it is out here
And III swear ! don't see through it and
1t makesssa fellow sore.
And the price of land is rising getting
scanda)ously high.
That school section that I'm renting and
thought some day Id buy
Why they want fifteen an acre-more than
doubled in year.
Say its worth it for potatoes and wheat
and oats and rye.
And that dry land farming business'is rails
ing thunder here,
| Right here in or Montana where we
Thought it was too dry.
And SO I've been studyln out bout wha,
| I'd better do
like it here in or Montan and hate to
say skidoo.
The climate here is bully, weve~.'got the
water and the grass.
And all of us was dom we'll fore these
things come to pass,
But there's no place now for doges wher
they're cutting up the range
And it behooves a fellow to be thinking
Of a change
Last spring Old Bill Mckenna bought Z
pillow and harrow, too,
Said he thought he'd try it once, lust te
see what he could do
And they say he had a forty broke and pu
it into grain
And he got smashing crop with /;
mighty little rain
And SO he's sold his bronchos and is goin!
| to farm it. too.
Just the same as these bomesteaders arr
all starting in to do.
Wife says she thinks it wouldn't hurt if IL
give the thing round,
But I've been kicking bout it SO /, hat
to knuckle down.
And yet if Bill can raise crop I'm prett
sure can,
For my place is all creek bottom and hi
is all upland
So sometimes think III buy plow an,
give the thing a try,
But you see I've always told them as no,
it was too dry.
And it keeps fellow guessing. but sur
don't want to leave,
like my. bunch of dogies and it make
a fellow grieve
TO be starting in on something new ans
breaking up his plan;
Stead of riding to the rount-ups, jus
be breaking up the land.
And I'll swear can't see through it and
makes a fellow sore,
But guess we're coming to t--no fire.
