way to Windsor this morning a baby
boy was born. to Mrs. Mary Rosen-
bloom a Russian Jewish immigrant
on her way to the United States. The
mother was anxious that the child
be born in the United States, and
the engineer put on full speed at her
request, but the stork took matters
in his own hand, and the youngest
member of the Rosenbloom family
will have to claim the Dominion OF
Canada as the. land of his nativity.
He was born when the train was
near Tilbury, Ont. Members of the
train crew came to the rescue with
overcoats and other garments, and

MISS MARGARET TleRNEv

A large proportion of the operations
performed in our hospitals are upon
women and girls for some organic
trouble. 3v
Why should this be the case =?
Because they have neglected them
selves, as every one of these patients
IN the hospital beds had plenty OF
warning in those dragging sensations,
pains at left or right of abdomen,
bacl<aehes, nervous exhaustion, IN
iammation, liberation, displace-
ments, and other organic weaknesses.
All of these symptoms are indica-
lions of an unhealthy condition Of the
female system and IL not needed the
penalty has TO be paid by dangerous
operation. When these symptoms
manifest themselves, do not drag
along until you are obliged to go to
the hospital and submit to an opera
tion-but remember that Lydia II.
Pinlham's Vegetable Compound, made
from native roots and herbs, has saved
hundreds of women from surgical
operations.

Compound, has cured more cases of
feminine ills than any other one

Up To Byrd.

Trustee Karnes said he thought
Secretary Byrd, having invited Mr..
Dies here on his own authority, should
pay the expense account, If it was
paid at all. All the members of the
board thought the board could not
legally pay the claim. Mr. Dies in
terruptions and characterizations
were all made before the board had
taken any action whatever. As to the
facts in the case. It is evident that
Mr. Dies has Just grounds for COM

board admitted that fact, President
List saying that he was the victim of
gross negligence. The trouble arose
in this way.
AS many as 40 applications were
received for the position Of princi-
pal of the High school. and after an
examination the board decided to
limit the eligibles to local teachers.
No one but Secretary Byrd had in
vited any one to come to the city for
an examination and the credentials
were all returned to the out-of-town
applicants. His credentials did not
reach Mr.. Dies before he left for Pa

other notice, he presumed that he
was expected. Arriving here he
learned Of the decision of the board

in western Nebraska, and give him
$40 acres as a homestead. Just let
me quote you what has been done
under the Kinkaid act in western Ne
braska in the last twelve months.
The North Platte land district shows
that there has been 500, 900 acres of
land taken up under this act of Gao
acres as a homestead. This means
about 500 families.
More Babies and Fewer Lambs.
The president of the United States
and Mr.. Pinchot have stated that they
would rather see more babies raised
and less lambs. | will make you some
figures on the production of babies
and lambs-the method of doing bust
ness in the west-S00 families would
make an annual production of 200 ba-
bies, and with that 500, 900 acres of
land occupied by the 500 families, it
would support sheep enough to make
an annual production of 100, 900 lambs.
Work of Cheyenne District.
But what has the Cheyenne district
done in the last twelve months under
the 160-acre homestead law? With
better land, more productive, better
climate, much more and much better
water, there has been between $4,000
and 10000 acres taken up; in other
words, $50 families against the 500
families under the 640-acre homestead
law, n see what a falling off in the
production of babies and lambs.
Wants Larger Homesteads.
Mr.. President, Mr.. Pinchot and the
good people of Wyoming, with our
United States representatives and tax
payers, take a hint and get down to
business and quit this "folderoll" of
leasing the public domain-give us a
640-acre homestead law. This would
put the big cattle and sheepman in his
respective place and build mp our
country and state with homes and
thereby raise more babies, calves and
lambs, and lessen the taxation on us
all. A little awkward, but it is the
truth, Most sincerely,

A RESERVOIR
JUST SAVED
LEAK IN DYKE OF BIG WHEAT
LAND DAM DISCOVERED BY
COUPLE OF GIRLS.
Miss WiIburta Knight of This City
and Miss Helen McGiil Of McGiIi
Give Warning In Time to Avert
Catastrophe-Party Spent Night
Closing Leaks in Reservoir.

Miss Wilburta Knight of this city,
daughter of Mrs. Emma Howell
Knight, who is visiting Miss Helen
McGill at McGill. in a letter to her
mother this morning notes a thrilling
experience through which she and
Miss McGill passed a day or two ago.
They wer riding by the Wheatland
reservoir dam and noted hat the wa
ter had begun to break through the
dyke. The stream was small, but the
immense body of water was pressing
against the dam, making the opening
larger moment by moment. The girls
notified Mr.. Reed, the manager of the
reservoir, n he made a hasty ride
to Wheatland for help.
Hay and Dirt Used.
In the meantime the girls were
joined by Mrs. Reed and her daughter,
Miss Edna, and they spent the night
fighting the floods back, being joined
by a Mr.. Harvey, belonging to the
reservoir force. The party used eleven
loads of hay mixed with dirt in clos
ing the openings in the dyke, and it
was only after a whole night, when
Mr.. Reed returned from Wheatland
with help, that they left the scene for
a moment. The water had worked its
way through the small crevases and
was growing in volume, in spite of all
the girls and Mrs. Reed could do, when
help arrived.
Vast Damage Averted.
1t is awful to contemplate what
would have happened had the girls
not found the leaks in time. There
is an immense amount of water in the
dam, with an almost bankful river
above it, and the flood would have
wiped out many a promising farm and
ranch along the river. The Wheat
land flats, one of the garden spots of
the state, would have been inundated,
with a consequent loss of life and
thousands of dollars worth of prop
erty. Miss Wilburta, in writing here
mother, said the work done by the
women and Mr.. Harvey seems almost
beyond belief. There was not a mo-
ment's rest for any of them, and when
Mr.. Reed arrived with men from
Wheatland the most of them were on
the point of collapse.
