Remarkable Growth Of
Dry Farming Congress
Within One Year
NEXT SESSION IN BILLINGS

"The purpose Of the Congress
to extend knowledge Of the posi-
hilities Of agriculture without irri.
cation in the semi-arid regions of
the United States, promises tre-
mendous enlargement Of the area
for homes for small farmers and
consequent increase of the wealth
OF the country almost beyond com.
putation.
With this unqualified endorse
ment of the Dry Farming congress
and its work of promoting the de-
velcpment of the West, Mr.. H.
w. Holiday, one of the prominent
business men Of Larimie, Wyom-
ing, JOINS forces with other pro-
yressive citizens of the West in ad-
vancing the great movement.
That his opinion is shared by hun
dreds of others throughout the
country is shown by the tenor of
hundreds Of letters received by
Secretary Treasurer John T.
Burns Of the Dry Farming. Con-
gress. during and since the recent
convention at Cheyenne. The per-
manent headquarters Of the Dry
Farming Congress has been es-
tablished at Denver, where for the

WILL REPRESENT WIBAUX

A special session Of the Wibaux
Chamber Of Commerce was held III
the fire hall on Tuesday evening
to complete the unfinished bust
ness OF their regular session held
on the previous evening and as
result of the latter meeting two
appointments were made.
E. G. Jordan commented on the
good work of the Dry Farming
Congress, and informed the Cham
Ter that Wibaux was allowed one
representative on their Board of
Control, who was to elected by
the Chamber of Commerce, and on
motion Mr.. Jordan was unani-
mously elected to fill that particu-
lar position.
A rumor, bearing strong evil
dence of truth, having been circu-
lated in and abont Wibaux rela-
tive to discrimination in freight
rates-particularly on engines
making great difference in rates
from the east to Wibaux. in favor
of points in Western N. OAK,
and in accordance to an amend
ment to these unfavorable and un-
just circumstances, the board, on
motion. appointed Mr.. McFillin
to investigate and to take up the
matter with the railroad company.
Several letters wer4 read before
the Board by Secretary Bushell,
among which was reply from the
Continental Oil Company to the
Chambers request for a tank
at Wibaux, in which the latter was
advised that the tank proposition
had been carefully considered with
the result that no tank will be in
stalled at this time. However,
the oil company advised that a
lower rate TO Wibaux on all pro-
ducts handled by them would be
established enabling Wioaux mer-
chants to compete with points east
of here as soon q their new tank
was installed at Glendive.
On motion the board adjourned
to meet at next regular session on

ONCE NOTED CLOWN
DIES IN ASYLUM

KALAMAZOO, Mich, March "a
William III. Warner, a man who, in
the capacity OF circus clown, made
the millions laugh for many years.
died at the asylum here OF heart dis
ease.
A dozen years ago Warner with his
iibs and jingles. ami merry rhymes,
combined with the twanging OF his
banjo. brought laughter to the lips OF
thousands. He was one OF the most
popular circus men In the business
and travelled with several circuses at
different times.
So widely known was he that peo-
PIE would flock 10 his show for miles
around TO see the funny clown The
irony OF fate Is illustrated by his death
in an insane asylum, forgotten and
unwept for.
Warner was committed To the insti-
tuition from Jackson IN 1885. and had.
therefore. spent the past 10 years at
the asylum. His insanity. IL Is said.
was due to his advancing age, and the
strenuous life he had led. OF late
years he had been totally blind. but
in spite OF his many Affections had a
kindly and genial disposition. He was

THIEVES TAKE SI3,5oo

LONDON, March PA remarkable
robbery has startled the British home

OF the cruiser Indomitable OF their pay
for a month Thieves entered the
paymaster's room. which is guarded
by sentry, broke open the safe and
cleared away with its contents-Sl3.-

The ship was lying at the time off
Margate. and four miles from shore.
and it is not likely that land thieves
were responsible. Although detec-
tives were called On board at once.
no clue was discovered.
One theory is, that as the ship had
been coaling. some one had taken adj
vantage of the general confusion and
the griminess of everything and every
body on board. Every officer and man
is disguised in coal dust on these oc.
casions, and the paymaster himself
may have been impersonated by dar-

SKIRTS FULLER.

PARIS. March 24.-"No .crinolines"
is the final decree In Paris which has
been received with great relief by
fashionable women and which was the
result OF conclave OF dressmakers
In the Rue dc la Paix.
The manager of a great Paris firm
OF costumiers says:
Il do not believe the crinoline will
ever be revived. Women are too
proud OF their figures. They have
taken too much care of themselves for
long time, and it is not likely that
they will ever ruin the result by wear
ing the ungainly crinoline.
There is no doubt. however, that
the new skirts are fuller. and some OF
our models even define the original
waist line. The high-waisted effect
will still be seen at the back. but very
much modified"
The tunic will play very large part
in both evening and day gowns. An
exquisite evening model at Doeuillets
was made OF black satin yelled with
jetted tunic. The bodice consisted
OF cream lace embroidered in steel,
mounted over pink chiffon, and TWO
black tin bands crossed the front
OF the bodice In apron fashion. An
afternoon gown of green satin was
heavily embroidered in old gold, and
opened over a gold and ecru waist.
coat.
Pleated skirts will be seen In tailor
made costumes, but the loose braided
coat will still remain the popular de-
sign.
Coarse tussores, the softest satins,
and crepe de Chimes mounted over
muslins, will be the favorite materials.
