WILSON LINE TRAFFIC.
Record Breaking Number of Passen-
gers Carried This Week.

During the week ending today the
Wilson Line has broken all records
for carrying passengers outside of
holidays and special occasions and
even the special occasions had little
on the record. Perhaps the hot
weather was a special occasion how
ever The travel today also was
heavy for Saturday is a day upon
which a number of visitors come to
the parks. Tomorrow there will be
the usual park crowd. Except for the
fact that the line operates four big
boats and runs eleven trips each way
every day there would be a number
of pleasure seekers disappointed but
as it is the company can carry an i'm
mense number of people without the
slightest inconvenience.

Amidst this won derful scenery Mount Robson rises in titenic outline, the highest peak in the Rockies, probably between 1 300 and 15,000 feet high and surrounding it for,a distance of 50 miles in all direc- tions lies the field of the survey In this, wild and unclaimed country the party of naturalists remained nearly four months, protected by special per mits from the Canadian government.
 The natural history work was divided up, MT. Hollister and MT Riley collect ing the birds and small animals, while the other two collectors hunted big game. The collection includes some 900 specimens of birds and mammals, the latter ranging in size from tiny mole- like creatures, called "shrews," to full grown caribous and bears. One eronmous grizzly bear was obtained by fortunate shot. Much fine material for exhibition groups was secured, in- cluding a series of caribou mountain goats, mountain sheep. beavers and many verieties of smaller animals. Be- sides birds and mammals. large num- bers of plants and insects were col lected. All the specimens have been turned over to the National museum and when the collection is worked up, parts of it will be put on exhibition.

 the Rain

Albertvlle, October 17-- Especially .)-Mar- shall county's fair opened here at clock this afternon. The opening was signalled by the blowing of every steanli whistle in the city and ringing of bells. All the merchants, too, closed their doors for the occasion. A heavy rain fell dur ing the forenoon, but that did not keep the people from turning out in vast num- hers, 2000 being the estimated attendance for the opening day. The races were postponed on account of the rain, but, the midway furnished attractions for the crowd. Since early Saturday farmers and others have been visiting the grounds placing their products and live stock o,, exhibition. The Agricultural hall is especially fine, some of the finest cot ton and corn raised in, the south being exhibited.
 The boys corn club room deserves spe- cial mention, as well as the ladies' de- rartment and educational department. The live stock and poultry department are also very interesting. Tomorrow Wednesday, will be good roads day, and a large crowd will be on hand. The Ledger scouting party will arrive this afternoon, and will take part in the ex ercises tonight and Wednesday. A ban ouet will be rendered them tonight at the Albertville hotel. The management Of the fair Is highly elated at the opening. Tbe interest and cooperation being mani tested by the farmers throughout the county surpasses all expectations.
