Seven of the nine departments of the Federal gov ernment will participate in the Con- gress. Thirty-seyen of the State com mittees on tuberculosis are at work. and practically every foreign nation Is taking as.hand.

and the body was buried In the Gem
etery in this city. :
Last Saturday morning lad named
Mike Folk, who resides with his
parents south of the city, was play
ing with companion near the dump
ing grounds. They found an old pair
of trousers. and searching them dis
covered $130 in the lining. The mat
ter was reported to Judge Duell, the
administrator of the estate of the late
Pasquale DeFiore, and as DeFfore's
clothes had all been done away with
after his death to avoid contagion, it
was thought. that there was a prob
ability Of the money having belonged
to him, and therefore the Judge in
vestigated.
On arriving at the house, the lad
was closely questioned, whereupon
he produced the money, but said that
he could not find the trousers. The
rest Of the clothing, the coat, vest
and undergarments were found. They
were taken to Mrs. DeFoire who said
that they had not belonged to her
dead husband. Mr.. Gilbertson was
then notified, and he questioned the
lad also. He positively identified the
rest of the clothing as having belong
ed to Whitten, and therefore took
charge of the money. The lad was
renumerated for his find to the extent
of $50, and the rest of the money was
sent to Whitten's married daughter,
Mrs. Hooley, who resides at Wild
Horse, Colo.

q statue of the Sacred Heart, the
Blessed Virgin and SITS. Peter and

decoration: The baptismal font is Of
a composition known as terra dura,
and looks almost like marble.
The affairs, of which there are three,
are all finished in light oak, and, while
presenting beautiful appearance, are
also most durable. The main altar

Of a lady of the parish. The two side
affairs cost about $500 apiece. e.
The basement of the church is ten
feet deep, large and commodious in
every particular. A large sectional
boiler has been installed, and the fur
mace is capable of giving an immense
amount of heat, which insures warmth
for the interior of the church in the
coldest weather. Two large meeting
halls, kitchen, a smaller hall, a little
chapel and a lavatory, complete the

the intention for the ladies of the
parish to give suppers from time to

Young Couple Kept Weddiug Secret
+: for Two Weeks

The news of the wedding of Mr.. F..
H. Bates and Miss Ida Oleson, both
residing near Toxic, was made public
this week. It came as surprise to
many, who knowing that the event
was to take place soon were not aware
that 1t had already been solemnized.
The wedding bears somewhat on the
romantic line. Miss Oleson, who Is
the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Chas.
Oleson, living near Crary, took up a
homestead on the reservation at the
opening Of theSIand for settlement and
a couple of years ago commuted an
.S0-acre tract she then filed on SO acres
more about a mile from the station of
Toxic, which claim she proved up
about two weeks ago. =,
Mr.. Bates was at one time in charge
of the Standard Oil business in this
city under Ed. Routier and is well
known here. He fled on a claim near
Toxic last summer and is still holding
it$down. He has been waiting on Miss
oleson for some time and dame rurnor
had 1t that the wedding was to occur
soon, but when her house was moved
to Bates homestead the first Of the
week It was no longer possible to
keep the secret and they admitted that
the wedding occurred soon after the

indifferently well, and ut one time dur

money and that of seves.l eyewitness

an unprovoked assault on his helper
with "flatter'' hammer, an imple-
ment used by b1acksmiths, weighing
afout three pounds. John said he
didn't know how many times he was
hit on the head, as the first blow stun-

unable to count further. When the
state rested, no evidence was intro
