met with marked success. These
courses consist Of a series Of lectures
and instruction along practical lines
~ various subjects; the purpose of
these courses is for the convenience of
many people who are unable to avail
themselves Of the scholastic advanta-
ges afforded at the University. Stu
dents, who otherwise would be de-
MED the privilege, will now have the
opportunity to pursue a definite plan
of study. It has further been decided
to issue certificate Of proficiency to
those who comply with the various
requirements and pass a satisfactory
examination.
Arrangements have been completed
for courses to be given in Helena and
Missoula. The Extension work was
instituted in Helena on Friday by DR..
G. ID. Reynolds, Professor of English,
who spoke on the 'SShakespearian
Drama, = and will continue his lec-
lures for six successive weeks, one
each Friday. President Duniway lee
tured The following Monday on the
American Revolution. In Helena
the und ertaking was favorably receiv-
ed, and the residents of that city ex-
pressed their appreciation by attend
ing IN large numbers.
Plans are now nearing completion
whereby lectures may be given in
Butte and Billings similar to those
in Helena and Missoula. However,
definite arrangements have not yet
been made.
The initial lecture of the Univer-
sity Extension Courses at Missoula
was delivered Tuesday evening by DR..
q. P. Rowe, geologist at the Univer-
|sitg, IN the lecture room Of the Public
Library The opening was suspicious;
many were in attendance, and Of those
present forty-four have enrolled as
students to take the entire course of
six lectures. These are to be given on
Tuesday evenings of six successive
weeks. DR.. Rowe discussed in very
interesting manner thirty or forty of

NEW GLENDIVE CORPORATION
Glendive Land Company win Sell
Riveryiew Park Addition And
Transact General Real
Estate Business.
Begin Operations On Feb.

Articles Of incorporation Of the
Glendive Land company have been filed
in the county clerk s office. The new
corporation has capital stock of
$50, 900 all subscribed, and has opened
offices in the basement Of the First
National Bank building; will begin
operations on Feb. l, at which time
the new addition adjoining the original
townsite on the west will be placed
upon the market.
This addition has been very approp-
riately named Riverview Park, as it
lies higher than any other part Of the
city, and a splendid view of the Vel
lowstone river in the distance can be
had.
This desirable residence property,
which has been purchased by the Glen
dive Land company, will be exten-
sively improved as fast as the weather
permits. Twenty thousand dollars will
be spent in building modern residences,
concrete sidewalks, the laying out and
grading Of streets and alleys, and in
parking the principal streets with
shade trees. A thousand feet Of water
mains will be laid, and ornamental
electric light posts will be placed on
the principal boulevards.
4 number Of Glendive people have
already signifed their intention Of
buying and building on this property,
and it looks like Riverview Park is soon
to be thickly populated and beauti-
ful part Of our city.

and Butte commenced to report
broken rails from all sections of that
stretch Of the division. So thick and
fast were the reports received that
sweeping investigation, conducted
by an Inspector, resulted in the dis
covery of 265 broken rails between
the two places. AS all of the rails
were found along the north side Of
the westbound track, that track
was at once condemned and all Of
the traffic yesterday and today has
been handled over the single track.
The supposition here is that the
broken rails resulted from a fast
run of a passenger train Westbound
between Butte and Missoula Friday
night. The temperature was low
and it is thought that some car car
ried a fiat wheel which would oe-
casionally flop over with such force
as to crack the frosty steel. 1t is al
legged that no damage was found
west of Missoula to Paradise, which
is accounted for from the fact that
over this district the weather was
warmer and the rails would be less
easily affected.
Old railroad men here say that
they have never. before experienced
a similar circumstance of such
magnitude in all of their experience.

Senator Burkett Of Nebraska has

tivation for five years, the assignees

Burkett stated that such legislation
was necessary because Of conditions
made on reclamation projects by

mer.

of its members are in sympathy

Dakotans View Monster Meteor

Grand Forks, N. D., Jan. 15.-
Residentssof Foster county who had
occasionto be up at 2 a. M, today
were treated to spectacular exhi
bition. A monster meteor, sixty-five
inches in diameter and weighing
many tons, buried itself in the earth
to depth Of six feet about seven
miles northwest Of Darlington. The
attention Of observers was attract
ed by the dazzling light, which, for
full minute before it struck the
ground, Illuminated the entire coun-
try for many miles around.
The huge ball took on all the col
ors of the rainbow and travelled
with tremendous speed, but without
percentlble noise.
The conclusion when it struck the
ground, however, was terrific, there
being a heavy roar, rather than q
crash. The vibrations Of the earth,
occasioned by the collision, aWoke
many inhabitants Of the county,
who believed there was an earth
quake shock. The meteor kept hot
for more than tWenty-four hours
after its fall. It now has the ar-
.naaranca If dull red ore.
Hundreds Of residents Of the
county are driving to the scene
daily to inspect the curiosity.

Settlers May Secure Relief

Washington, Jan. Is, Settlers on
government irrigation projects IN
The west find themselves embarrassed
financially in their efforts to bring
their lands to state of cultivation,
and it is probable that legislation
toreieve them will be considered at
Tie present session. Statements
made tomembers of the senate COM
nittee on irrigation on their trip OF
Investigation last summer were to
the effect that there was a serious
error in the law, and that there was
Ho provision for giving settlers some
evidence Of title to their holdings,
which could be used for loan to
develop their lands.
Most Of the settlers went on the
lands as soon as the government an
nounced that irrigation works were
lobe constructed. It is true that
reclamation service officials did ev-
eFythmg they could, by posting
notices in postotices and through
0e newspapers, to discourage the
fasn' because Of the uncertainty as
VtAe time when water could be
furnished. These warnings were not
so'Ilcent to discourage settlers,
however, and most of them took up
lana before spade had been stuck
