A New Melody-drama

Producers Of musical plays agree
that the situation music is the
most valuable for the success of the
production, but the hardest to get.
By situation music they mean the
melody suggested naturally by the
text, born and nurtured in the story.

Quite a number of Montana stock
men are planning to take in the Ma

the Oregon Short Line have put in
rate of one fare plus $500 for the
round trip, which rate will probably
be in effect on all lines in the State
to Denver and return.
The present condition of the cattle
industry is more or less confusing,
and many stockmen are going to Den
yer to get in line on the situation,
and find out what the prospects are
for the future. It looks at the pres
ent time as though prices would be
high for some years to come. It is
promised that the big show in Den

Mastodon Minstrels Many And
Much Mirth MuIcted

A packed house greeted the big
local rganization of Mastodon Min
strels last evening, and evidently all
got their moneys worth for many
and various were the expressions of
appr oval afterwards heard concern
ing the performance. The singers,
end men, interlocutor and speciality
artists were all good, and the new
crop Of jokes and hits on local
people were all far above the aver
age. Needless to say, the audience
was rather surprised at the excell-
ence Of the whole affair, and the
boys. will be congratulated On their
fine work in such short space of
time.
John Baer furnished some very
good cartoons in the longest inter-
val Of the show.
Last night the proceeds went to
st. Matthew's Club. By special re-
quest Of the business men the boys
have decided to repeat the perfor-
nance this evening and will give
the proceeds to the five ministers of
the city, for their own personal use
in their homes, outside of the
churches themselves. No doubt a
large house will again be out.

Statistics are a strong point with
government tax rates. About half of
the matter passing through the mails
is made up of public documents, ma
tional or state, and two-thlrds or more
of these documents -sonsist of Stats
ties. There are statistics of every
conceivable kind and the receiver of
them must pause to think how it is
possible to obtain these statistics
They know there is an army of

gather all of the statistics published
They would have to keep tab on every
man who shoulders fishpole ana

a days sport at angling.
These wonderful statistics not only
give you the number and kinds of fish
caught in every part of the country,
but will tell the number supposed to
remain in the streams and lakes. if
not on the seaooast. They will tell

WOULD BE A BLUNDER,

Congressman Thistlewood and
President Aisthorpe OF the Board Of
Trade have interested themselves in
the reported attempt by Missonrians
to divert President Taft from his river
trip between Cape Girardeau and
Cairo They have sent protests to
Congressman Rodenburg and to the
president OF the Deep Waterways AS
sociaton at st. Louis, who has the
arrangements In charge. ~
1t Is not believed that the pro-
posed change can be brought about
at this late date, when extensive ar.
engagements have been perfected for
the river trip from ST. Louis to this
icty The reason given for the pro.
posed change is that the president
may see the extensive drainage dis
tricts in Missouri No doubt these
are worth seeing but they are not of
as much Importance 20 the country as
the river and nothing can be gained
for them from the national govern
ment or from the presidents favor,
as In the case of the river. As the
main Ii not the only purpose of the
presidents river trip Is to show him
what the river needs, and its posi-
bilities. and to create sentiment In
favor of river Improvement. the
abandonment OF the river trip from
the Cape to Cairo would be a mani
fest blunder. to which the secretary
OF the deep Waterways Association
can not afford to commit himself.
In his letter to President Kava-
naugh, yesterday, MFR. Aisthorpe point
ed out the Importance of attention to
the stretch of river between Cape Cir
ardeau and Cairo, which is really the
worst part of the river from st. Louis
to Cairo. The niggardIiness Of congress
In setting aside very Inadequate
sum for the care of this piece OF river
is responsible for its miserable condi.
ton and for the great damage done at
various points, including the destruc-
ton Of Birds Point.
The president and his party should
by all means see this stretch of river
and be'Inade acquainted with its needs
in order that they may use their in
fluence with congress to give 1t more
Just treatment than 1t has hitherto re-.
ceiyed
