The new census which is now being

some startling facts.
II will show that the state il growing
faster at the present time than at any

that the land filings on homesteads alone

particularly in the northern part of the
state, that the machinery oi the govern
ment has been entirely unable TO handle
the business and the Glasgow, Great Falls

half OF the total OF more than 4. 900 settlers
who have invaded this state during the last
six or eight months have taken land within
the limits Of the territory covered by the
Great Falls land Office. Glasgow comes
second with little less than half as many
entries as the Cataract city and Miles City

One OF the interesting features OF the
settlements of the state is the enormous
influx OF settlers to Valley county. situated
in the extreme northeastern corner of the
state and IN area one OF the largest counties
in Montana. Within the last four months
more land filings have been recorded in the
land Office at Glasgow the county seat,
than the entire county contained people at

TRYING TO
PREVENT
A STRIKE

Cincinnati, March 25.-Represen-
tatives of the United Mine Workers
and operators from the Central Com
petitive district are endeavoring to
avert a strike of the coal miners of
Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania.
The miners and operators realize
that unless an agreement is reached
a great strike will be precipitated
which may spread throughout the
east and eventually tie up the mines
worked by members of the Western
Federation of Miners.
The questions involved are de-
mands by the men for an increase
in wages and a shorter work day. It
these demands are refused or no
compromise is reached the negotia
tions will be called off at once
Up to the present time the miners
representatives have predicted the
success of the negotiations. Today
they were not so sanguine. The op-
orators openly predict failure of the
present conference.
If the negotiations fall through it
is expected that the United Mine
Workers will be called into conven-
tion to decide upon a general strike
of the organization.
In accordance with announced
plans, committee of the miners will
call upon the Representatives of the
Western Federation of Miners to
urge that body to join the strike.
Recently the Western Federation
sent delegates to a me ting Of the
miners, at which representations
were made by both sides indicating
that a defensive alliance would be
entered into. President Lewis of the
United Miners and representatives
of the Federation are considering
plans. it is reported, for working
agreement between the two organi-
cations in the event that complete
working agreement cannot be ef-
fected.

A STUBBORN
CINDERELLA,
But SHE'S GAY

Mr.. Mort H. Singers Princess the
atre (Chicago) Company, supporting
Mr.. Homer B. Mason in the Hough,
Adams and Howard musical comedy,
"A Stubborn Cinderella" will DE
seen at the Grand Opera House on
Saturday, March 26. Although it is
by the authors of "The Goddess OF
Liberty" and The Golden Girl" it
is entirely different in class of enter
tainment from it's predecessors. The
characters are drawn from much
more pretentious walks of life. It's
scenes are laid in a different class
of society, and even its musical num-
bers are more ambitious than in any
of the former plays by these popr-
lar authors.
The fact that this Chicago produc.
ton ran fer over four hundred per-
formances at the Princess Theatre
in that c'ty and during all that time
never played TO a vacant seat at a
single performance, demonstrates
the appeal VIII 'ch this charming mus
ical play makes, not only to the or
chestTa patrons of the theatre, but
to those sitting in the balcony and
gallery as well.

Trapped by Telephone Girls.

Exasperated telephone subscrib-
ers who, unable to "get through
as quickly as they would like, in
dulge in harsh language toward the
girl clerks, have been cleverly
brought to book by the telephone ad-
ministration, says a Copenhagen
correspondent of the London Daily
Mail.
At first it was found difficult to
identify the offenders, so a gramo-
phone apparatus was installed at the
central exchange. The moment a
subscriber began to use unseemly
language, the girl would have it re-
corded on the gramophone.
Some of the worst offenders wer9
summoned to the directors Office
and when they denied their hasty re-
marks they we're convicted by an ex-
act reproduction in their own voice

result greatly improved.
