from Saturday until Tuesday
taking the rating of our business
people. He reported most of the
business people of central Idaho
as being in very good financial
shape. This certainly speaks ex-
ceptionallv we'll for our country.
A trial was held at Grangeyille
Tuesday as result of one of A. c.
Gentry's boys being hit on the head
several weeks ago by a stone
thrown by Willie Schober. The
evidence introduced tended to show
that the boys injury was the result
of dn accident and the case was
dismissed. Quite a number of
witnesses were taken over to testify
i'll the case.
The drillers at the city we'll are
now down about I4o feet and are
still in the same hard rock they
encountered at the start. After

about 1870 feet OF water in it at
present. A new 5co-foot rope,
weighing 500 pounds and costing

enable them to go as deep as their
contract calls for.
George Hartman closed a deal
Monday for the purchase of the

adjoining his place south of town,
consideration being $500. Mr..
VonTersch bought the place two
years ago for $1,000 and cleared
about $500 from last years crop.
He also retains this years crop and
will have nice profit to show from
his investment. Because of its
location the farm will work in
admirably with Mr. Harman's
home place and will prove a very
good investment for him.

work Tuesday on the reservoir to
be constructed for the water
company just southwest of town.
He has several men at work with
teams and scrapers excavating for
the reservoir and Kaschmitter and
VonTersch are also working there
with their traction engine packing
down the dirt that is being deposit
ed on the lower side to bring the
embankment up to the proper
height. After the excavating is
completed the reservoir will be
bricked up and cemented inside
and covered with tight
roof, making it absolutely vermin

Fet Rhoades returned Tuesday
evening from Sites, to which place
he helped drive a bunch of fat
hogs, and informed us that this
trip he experienced one of the
worst hog stampedes he ever wit
messed. They had gotten just
fairly started down the Sites hill
when the stampede occurred. Dur
ing the drive one hog had caused
them much trouble and they finally
decided to tie it and put in the
wagon. When the hog started
squealing the other hogs stampeded
and in spite of all the herders
could do many of them scattered
and could not be fonnd until the
next day. Many of them run -four

Ii New Quarters

The growth of one local firm at least
is evident in the removal this week OF
the stock of Reed Bros. store from Sims
street to their new quarters in the Simp-
son block on Barnes street. The Barnes
street is called the daylight store and
Is 9 vast improvement over the old quar-
tiers. It is nov one Of the best in town
and is unusually light and airy. In the
front of the store is a big ransom OF
prism glass extending across the whole
front which makes the place as light as
day.
+ The floor area is almost four times as
great in the new store and the firm has
already added several new lines of goods,
including shoes, boys clothing, and
ladies' waists and skirts.
The interior is much improved with
new fixtures, including two large new
floor show cases of the latest pattern and
q new display grocery counter, the most
modern style of fixture out. Both win
dows are well lighted and roomy and
capable of displaying goods to the best
advantage. The entire basement is to
be occupied by Reed Bros. The rear part
will be used as q storero0m. It is their
plan to finish off the front part of the
basement as q ladies' rest room, an in
novation in Dickinson mercantile circles.
Such a place would be Greatly appre-
ciated, especially by ladies from the
country. It will be light and airy, with
comfortable chairs and furnishings and
made attractive as possible.
The store will be heated with central
heat and the fixtures are now being in
stalled. In every way it will be a most

Geological Study

Several weeks ago the Press published
an account of the work of the North Oak
ota geological survey the past season.
This week the department has issued a
bulletin giving the result Of the inves-
LEGATIONS. Most Of the facts were fore
casted in the columns Of this paper at
that time. but a few points are made
more clear and given in more detail. +
The principal work was in the coal
fields, especially in Billings county,
where at least 81 workable beds were dis
covered in the Bad Lands scattered in
almost as many different localities. One
bed was found with an extent of from
1, 600 to 1, 800 square miles, ranging in
thickness from 9 to IS feet, although
much of it has been burned out or re-
moved by erosion. 1t is interesting to
note that tits estimated that North Oak
ota has 500 billion tons of coal. or more
than any state in the union and the pur-
pose of this report is to make possible
the development Of. this great resource.
Important fossil discoveries were also
made near Marmarth. q. &
Considerable work Of importance was
done in the eastern part Of the state in
studying the Typographical features. The
gas wells Of Bottineau county were also
investigated and much data collected.
Already one well has been discovered
with q pressure sufficient to blow off at
least 3, 900, OO00 cubic feet of gas per day.

School Report

a report of the attendance at the pub
liz, schools of the city and other general
statistics for the month of September,
1908. as compared with the same period
of time last year, shows that the total en-
rollment is IA per cent mo for the month
this year than last year. In the high
school the attendance is 81 per cent
greater and it is most encouraging that
there are more boys enrolled than girls.
This is an exception as in very few
schools are such the conditions. The re-
port shows an improvement in some
ways and a drop in other lines. The per-
centaee of attendance is greater. the
average daily attendance higher and the
aggregate absences less. Fewer parents
have visited the schools in September
than last year:
