Livestock Receipts Decreased.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-There was
q notable decrease in the inbound
livestock movement in the IL months
ending with November, 1909, as meas.
ured by the number of livestock cars
unloaded at seven primary interior
markets, compared with the same per.
iod of the two previous years, accord
ing to bulletin issued by the bureau
of statistics. In 1909 this period reg.
istered 645, GA cars, $1,000 below the
record for the same period of 1908 and
more than rs, 600 cara below 1907.
Chicago was the heaviest loser,
having gradually declined In this
respect since 1905. OF packing house
products shipped from Chicago in
these IL months, beef was the only
item that increased over the cores
%pouding period of the preceding
years.
There was a marked depletion in
stocks of meat in the five principal
markets Of the country. Receipts OF
hogs in these markets decreased $40,
600 head.

Bridge Wrecked BY Ice Jam.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 31.-Three hundred
feet of false structure of the Mckinley
bridge, now under construction across
the Mississippi river, was knocked
out by an ice jam at s O'Clock tonight.
Sixty-nine men were thrown into the
river, and it is believed some have
been drowned.
One hundred and fifty men were at
work on the structure when the jam
began to nov Seventy heard the
warning snap OF the timbers in time to
escape to the steel work, but sixty
others went down In the twisting mass
Of timbers. Three hosting engines
and q traveller also went down, imper-
filing the lives of the struggling men
below.
Captain John Short. in charge of q
tug and two barges, picked up 40 men
and got them ashore after q two
hours battle with the ice, which is
jammed six feet high in many places.

The Good Dinner,

The successful ~housekeeper was
planning a dinner for a few of her
husbands friends.
II must have apple pie and cheese
for DESSERT" she remarked without a
flicker Of indecision.
But should think you would want
something more dainty this time of
year," suggested the woman who al
ways worried herself sick over a COM
pany dinner, 'an ice or a frozen pud-
ding"
"Oh. but apple pie is my husbands
favorite dish! When he has company
l always serve what he likes best;
then he thinks his guests have had
such a good dinner. and everybody
is happy. At least my husband and l
are happy, and if the guests aren't no
one is the wiser."-New York Press.

MASTERING A LION,
Exciting Experience Of 4 Famous AMI.
NAL Trainer.

"Show a lion that you are his master
and he will be submissive; once per-
NIT him to get the notion that you fear
him and his antipathy will increase"
said Frank c. Bostock, the famous an
final trainer.
In illustration Of the lengths to
which owners of wild beasts will go
In order to retain control Of them Bos-
took told the following story:
"Some years ago when we were at
the Hippodrome. in Paris. I decided as
a special attraction to 60 into the are
ma with Wallace. a huge African lion
that all our trainers had despaired Of.
The house was crowded. We placed
the lion in a cage sixteen feet square.
and this was put inside a twenty foot
ring. Two assistants were stationed in
the outer ring in case of accident. I
had scarcely got inside when the beast
leaped at me. 1t bit right through my
left hand and with one blow ripped
the flesh off my back. Clear outv l
shouted to the two men in the outer
ring. 4 am going to open the doors
and let him into the big ARENA
II was as furious as the lion. My
pride as a trainer was wounded deeper
than my back. I flung open the doors.
and the lion sprang out. The blood
was pouring from my wounds, but in
the excitement of the moment I felt
no pain-only a mad desire to be mas
ter. I picked up a property chair, and
when the beast came again I struck it
full across the muzzle; then, selling
my whip, I actually became the ag.
gressor.
"The audience was in something like
a panic. and loud cries Of Enough.
enough" We're raised. But I hadn't
finished. In ten minutes l had subju-
gated Wallace to such an extent that
he covered like a dog. I got out Of the
cage and just tainted away. From
that day no n attempted to teach
Wallace."-Pearson's Weekly.

CAPITOL BUILDING MATTERS

The special session of the state leg.
islature failed to carry out the pro.
gram contemplated by those who
origin ated the idea of calling Mon.
tana lawmakers together-to provide
for the use of Columbus stone in the
construction of new wings to the CAPT.
tol-the assembly concluding, after
extended discussion, that Montana
granite is superior to any other
material available for the purpose
indicated. The desirability of using
Montana material in building addi.
lions to the capitol Is restricted to
stone. according to the views of Mon.
tana Legislators, no mention of any
other Montana material having devel.
oped while the matter was under con-
s%ideration.
The use of Montana granite in the
construction of the capitol wings be-
ing quite an expensive proposition,
the members of the legislature au.
thorized An issue of bonds to the am.
cunt OF $3.50, 600 to meet the increased
cost, making Q total of $3.50, 600 for
the estimated expense of building the
additions to the capitol. If this am.
cunt is insufficient, the state board is
authorized to disregard the Montana
stone requirements, and procure
building material OF some other kind.
It should be understood that the
funds for capitol building purposes
come from q land grant by the federal
government, amounting to some 1872, >
600 acres. The lease or sale of these
lands affords revenue with which to
construct buildings at the state capital
and the bonds heretofore issued, and
that may be sold at some later date,
ore . lien upon these lsnds.
According TO the last report OF the
register OF the state land Office, Issued
about . year ago, there was . bonded
indebtedness Of o350.000 against the
The river press. [volume] (Fort Benton, Mont.) 1880-current, 1910-01-05

public building land grant, with an
annual interest charge Of s2I, 900. The
additional bond issue of $3.50, 900 au.
thorized at the recent special session
OF the Legislature will increase the In.
debtedness to 81, 900, 600 with an in.
terest charge of over $685. 900 q year.
The report of the register Of state
lands shows q comparatively small
income from lease of capitol building
lands, the revenue from that source
being only s5,937 in 1907, and 6 1921
In 1908, which was about one.fourth
the amount necessary to meet the in.
terest due on bonds in the years
named. A considerable area of these
capitol building lands, however, was
cold by the state authorities, the sales
of such lands in 1907 amounting to
s155, SOS, and in 1908 to Gilt ,222-the
area involved in these trans actions
aggregating about 19, 900 acres.
There was q difference of opinion
among members of the legislature as
to the necessity for additions to the
capitol at this time, and the advisa-
bility of mourning the Indebtedness
against the land grant, and q similar
difference of opinion doubtless exists
among Montana citizens generally.
The state lands are ss valuable an
asset as cash in the treasury, and
should not be recklessly dissipated by
those who have control of the states
resources.

FOOLED THE CITY.
One Of the Hoaxes Perpetrated by
Theodore Hook.

Theodore Hook.
In the early part OF the nineteenth
century great preparations were made
in England to receive a Spanish ann
bassador who was expected to arrive
at Southampton. 4. mischievous idea
came into the head Of Theodore Hook
(born 1888, died 1871, novelist and
journalist and above all contriver of
that diversion known as the hoax. The
English feet was lying off Southamp-
ton. Hook. then a young man. knew
many of the younger officers. He
formed his scheme, and n morning
q launch set out from the feet and
drew up at the quay.
In this launch was he who purpOrted
to be the Spanish ambassador in al
most royal robes. arrived two days be-
fore the expected time. The mayor Of
Southampton. who vas to receive the
Spanish envoy, was greatly flustered.
It was all so sudden. He did the best
he could. Several companies of SOL
diers, some on foot, some mounted,
were called out. The bells were IN
The ambassador, accompanied by a
number of young officers of the fleet,
was escorted with much pomp to the
mayors palace. There was a banquet
and speechmaking, one Of the young
officers acting as interpreter for the
ambassador.
After it vas over and the Spanish
envoy was supposed to be on his way
to London the true ambassador arriv-
ed. There was but a sorry reception
for him. The other ambassador, who
was Theodore Hook, having perpetrat-
ed the greatest hoax ever known on
a mayor and a city, had exhausted
the hospitality Of the town. The scan
dial was 80 great, the mayor and the
people Of Southampton had been so
o%utrageously cold. that to make any
stir about the affair would only cause
them to be laughed at all the more.
With the exception of the dismissal
of some Of the naval officers who had
taken part in it little was done, and
the affair was allowed to blow over
