METEOR FALLS; JARS MONTANA.
Electrical Disturbance Extinguishes
Lights In Three Towns.

Missoula - The sudden flashing Of
brilliant meteor, having the appear
ance of a great ball of fire shooting
through the sky, spread panic over
western Montana. That it dashed into
the earth somewhere above Ravalli on
the Flathead reservation was the con-
clusion drawn from the distinct jar
felt throughout this section of the
country. The electrical disturbance
extinguished all lights in Dixon, Arlee
and Perma.
The Indians who witnessed the spec
tacle and felt the quake are in state
of terror. So brilliant was the meteor,
that an engineer on the Northern Pa
cific who was running out of Arlee,
threw on the airbrakes and stopped
his train, believing that he had missed
a block signal or that there was an
other train with electric headlight on
ahead.

Trunk Lines Proposed by Billings

Billings.-Two great trunk lines Of

Montana, one from east to west, the

ing approximately S4,500,0O0, are be.

and to the end that they be construct
ed the Chamber of Commerce will
labor assiduously from this time on
until the meeting of the good roads
convention in June.
Montana is sadly in need of i'm
proved roads," said P. B. Moss, at a
meeting Of the Chamber of Commerce,
"and nothing will be of greater bene-
fit to the commonwealth than their
construction in every part of it.
"The distance from Glendive to Mis-
soula is approximately 600 miles, and
consider for moment what contin-
uous highway, one that is built to q
high degree of perfection, would mean.
Automobiles and tourists of every
description would be attracted to this
section of the northwest, and aside
from the untold practical benefit to
the citizens themselves, the advertis-
ing the state would receive on account
of it's good roads can scarcely be over
estimated.
"a second great trunk line should
be built from Havre to Dillon, with
lateral roads, also as we'll built, radi-
ating from the main arteries wherever
needed"
Local men are enthusiastic over the
proposition, and every effort will be
