PaHsade
Not Satisfied

A delegation of Palisade citizens is
making things interesting for the
county commissioners this afternoon
and up to the time of going to press
no settlement had been reached.
The controversy is over the loca-
tion of the proposed wagon bridge
across the Grand river at Palisade,
bids for the construction of which
HSere opened this afternoon. No bids
were accepted on account of the pro-
test of the Palisade people. The bids
ran from $4,000 to $4,000 in
amount.
The Palisade people claim that the
proposed site, foot of East Fourth
street across to Nineland is insult
able. inconvenient and several other
things which a bridge site should not
be. and they want the location chang
ed to the foot of East Third street as
being better suited for the purpose.
If their protest is needed it will
require that new bids be advertised
for under new specifications

society, after a period of unprece-

don sackcloth and ashes for the Len

During the next forty days and forty

the way of social affairs.
Many events of more or less i'm

ing of these is the barefoot dance to

Lady Constance Richardson. Lady
Constance will show off her famous
feat of pirouetting with nude tootsies
at an entertainment to be given at
Sherry's this evening for the benefit
of the milk fund of the Society for
Improving the Condition of the Poor.
1t is said by those who have wit
messed it that Lady Constance's
dance. despite the baroness of the
feet. is extremely modest as well as
remarkably graceful. The visiting
noblewoman will be paid for her dis
play and will use the money she re-
ceives to aid in establishing a school

MILLIONS FOR GAS CONSUMERS.
(special to The Sentinel.l


New York, Feb. Distribution
of the SI2.0OO,0OO in rebates due the
gas consumers of New York, under
the order of the United States Su-
preme Court, was commenced today
and will probably be completed with
in two months. The auspicious day
was made a gala occasion by millions
of New Workers, since it marked the
final surrender of the vanquished
Gas Trust and the victory of the
common people" The decision of
the highest tribunal of the land in
this case will probably 20 down in
history as one of the most notable it
has ever rendered For the first
time a big combine has been forced
to disgorge, and practically every
householder in the city will share in
the proceeds of the disagreement. It
is estimated that there are about "A
million and a half claimants, who
have paid "A dollar for gas after the
passage of the SO-cent gas law. and
the work of settling all of these
claims will be a gigantic task. Expert
accountants have been employed and
the distribution viii go forward with
all possible facility. The test of the
SO-cent gas law began May /, 1906.
and ended with the recent decision
of the Supreme Court upholding its
constitutionality. and ordering the
return to consumers of any money
paid to the Gas Trust beyond the
legal rate while the court test was in
progress.

HOW TO FARM WITH

a.h heyenne, Wyo., Feb. 23.-With
nfS than coo delegates present and
hundreds more to arrive on belated
trains, the third Trans Missouri Dry
Farming Congress opened its sessions
here today. The sessions will con-
tinue for three days.
A blanket of snow more than a
foot deep greeted the delegates.
The streets of Cheyenne are elab-
orately decorated in honor of the Wis
itors, and a program of entertain
ment for every evening session mas
been arranged.
roday's program included an al al
dress by Governor B. B. Brooks, the
president of the congress, and the
reading of papers by state delegates
on various features of dry farming.
Governor Brooks spoke in part as
follows:
Under approved dry farming
methods, millions upon millions OF
acres of public land can and will be
settled, and this conquest is easy as
compared with the early settlement
of New England. There the pioneer
faced a rigorous climate and was
menaced by merciless savages. There
the forests had to be cleared, the un-
derbrush burnt. the stumps and the
stones hauled away. There the soil
was miserly. and the pumpkins on
the steep hillsides had to be braced
to keep them from rolling away; but,
despite adverse conditions, that New
England community, built solidly up
on the four cornerstones of justice,
learning. liberty ana law, grew and
prospered and became so powerful
that later on their ideas gave form
TO the national government and
r. Aome life to many of the great
Wtions of the west.
hen followed the conquest of
,iddle prairie states; but, mind
present day difficulties are as
lg compared to theirs; for dur
ne past 25 years the impulse
3ace of the world has marvellous
a 1ickened. The prairie schooner
