FATHER TONDORF
SUPPORTSCAUSEOF OF
FORECASTER MOORE
Asserts the Weather Bureau
Should Be Supplied With
Seismograph.

''Seismology and meteorology are CO
related sciences and research into ont
is more or less related with research
into the other"
This is the opinion of the Rev Fran
els A. Tondorf, director of seismo
logical research at the Georgetown
University, who takes the held fol
Willis Moore, Weather Bureau director
In his chronological work. Father Ton
dorf believes the Weather Bureau
should have and operate a seismo
graph as a part of its weather investi
cations.
Father Tondorf also takes issue Will
Father Franckhauser, Of Loyola Uni
VersityI In the prediction that a biz
earthquake is due.
No Earthquake Brewing.
There is no great earthquake brew
Ing within the knowledge of Father
Franckhauser or any other man." said
Father Tondorf, this morning. The
microceismograms recorded by the 10y
ola instrument are natural phenomena
that presage nothing. Seismologists
are well agreed that the microceisms
are essentially due to meteorological
sures and to the accompanying gra-
Gients. Observations have shown that
the magnitude of these microceisms, or
grams, is entirely dependent on the
amount of barometric pressure.
Meteorological conditions that cause
these disturbances, are necessarily very
great in extent, as local variations In
barometric pressure, wind and fraction
al eXcitation of the earth's crust, count
for very little, If at all
Father Tondorf did not attempt tC
establish any direct connection between
the movements of the seismograpt
under pressure of meteorological con.
diuons, and the present generally un'
settled weather conditions. These
microceisms," he continued, which have
been noted at LoyOla, have been re-
corded continuously by our machine al
the observatory here for the last three
days. But this is not of rare occurrence
The months of October, November, and
December have always been especially
noted for these mircoceismograms. They
point only to the close bearing of the
science Of meteOrology on seismology.
Matter of Coincidence.
Consequently, they are not to be
looked upon as harbingers of severe
earthquakes. When they have preceded
severe shocks 1t has been a matter
of coincidence. When once these dis.
turbances have manifested themselves
they continue, even after the immediate
cause has been suspended
When the Weather Bureau seismo-
graph was installed a series of these
the machine was bothered by heavy
traffic on a nearby street, but il was
later found that local disturbances
counted for naught.

DR.. Wiley Back at Desk,
Says Fight Is Not Won

DR.. Harvey w. Wiley returned to
Washington this morning and at orce
resumed work DESPITE the fact his
leave Of absence on account of his vaca-
ton was not up, he was summoned
back here by Secretary Wilson. AT
noon he and the Secretary went into
conference with reference to the future
of the administration OF the pure food
and drugs act.
Until II is settled by direction Of
the Secretary what is 20 he the course
of things in the Department, and what
part he is to be allowed in the admin
istration of the pure food law, DIR.
Wiley will probably have no plans to
announce. 1t is well-known that Sec
retarv Wilson, bowling to che storm Of
public disapproval Of the past methods
of administering the law, is now willing
to leave DR.. Wiley a freer hand.
DIR. Wiley does not come back with
any illusions aoout the fight for pure
food being won.
"If anyone thinks the adulteration
snake is killed." said he, ''he is very
much mistaken. 1t is lying low inst at
present. The men who are responsible
, for food adulteration think the feelings
OF :he public will soon quiet dowI."
DR., Wiley believes eternal vigilance is
needed If the country is to get pure food
and drugs, and that public officials
must be required 20 enforce the laws
strictly.

Crowds in Its Entire History.

spoke Of the sweet pea as a flower
and OF the young Womanhood of the

At the close of the chancellor's
address the archbishop, Rev. O. P.
Bishop, addressed the queen and the

measures let the night be spent,
may tomorrow sun shine brightly
upon a joyous and happy throng and
let the hours be filled with music,
fun and frolic, amid scenes of floral
beauty. Greetings TO all our loyal
subjects My imperial edict will
now be proclaimed by the royal her
ald."
The ceremony was then closed by
short formal proclamation by the
herald. Then the queens party re-
paired to Elks' hall to open the car

tators dispersed.

BRIDGE TAKES
TOLL OF LIFE
Ernest Harvey Killed and Two Of His Compan-
ions Later Receive Serious Injuries.

Ernest Miles Harvey, formerly OF
Danville, Va, employed on the new
railroad bridge being constructed over
the Yellowstone south of the city, was
SO badly injured last Friday afternoon
that he died at the Grace hospital,
where he was taken Immediately after
the accident. He passed away Sunday
morning.
It appears that while at work car
rying timbers on the structure, an
approaching engine knocked him be
tween the ties. Falling some fifty
feet, he landed in shallow water, where
he was picked up by his companions.
His injuries were so serious that no
hope was entertained from the first.
Deceased was about 81 years old, A

Rozeman, Aug, 29. Surrounded
hv throng estimated at about
Qooo-all loval subjects Of the realm
Miss Mildred Livingston was this
evening crowned queen of the sixth
annual sweetpea carnival and the
multitude voiced the declaration OF
the archbishop who, after placing
tbe crown on the royal head, ad-
dressed the sovereign as Queen Mil
dred |.
The scene was brilliant in every
particular. A myriad lights sur
rounded the spot. These seemed to
reflect the twinkling of the stars
above and the rising of the moon
before the ending Of the ceremony,
added to the splendor Of the scene.
The pavilion or royal bower was
mtcbed on the broad expanse OF
lawn that stretches between the high
school and the Irving school. From
the bower the lawn rises gently for
several hundred yards, forming q
natural amphitheater which held the
thousands of eager spectators and
afforded even the children present a
good view.
At8;3O o'clock sharp the sound of
the trumpet of the royal trumpeter
announced that the queen and her
party we're approaching. There was
no delay. Through the pathway
that had been ribboned off slowly
marched the cavalcade. First came
the trumpeter and then the Boston
& Montana band, playing a slow
march. Soon the queen and her at
tendants were in position in the pa
yilioH and then came the fanfare Of
trumpets. The herald then an
nounced that the ceremonies were
to open.
At this juncture the lord chaneel-
or addressed the subjects Of the
realm. The chancellor. Hon. John

G. |. A. Dance A Big Success.

About one Of the best social affairs
that has been given in Glendive for
some time was held on last Friday
evening at the Krug hall, when the
ladies auxiliary of the B. of L. Es
gave their annual dance. The ladies
feel proud Of their achievement and
they have every right to do SO as it
was success both socially and fnan-
cially. 14s dance tickets were sold for
the occasion. They wish to thank
the business men and everyone who
attended for their liberal patronage.
The Glendive orchestra furnished the
music and it was far above any past
endeavor.

music was furnished by selected
orchestra from the famous Black
Eagle band, and local ladies assisted
with splendid vocal selections dur
ing the hours of the evening.
The Rainbow hotel management
acted as hosts to the editors during
the meeting. This hotel, while not
comparatively large, having some
140 rooms. is said to be about the
finest between the Twin Cities and
the coast, having been lately com
pleted at a cost of S425, 900. 1t has
marble throughout and is supposed
to be absolutely freproof. The
Great Falls Townslte Co., are the
owners Of this magnificent hostelry.
Great credit for the success Of the
meeting must also be given to May

humane officer. and one of the
greatest boosters Great Falls ever
had, was also one Of those to whom
the success of the 1911 meeting is
largely due. Mr.. Schoenfeld is now
superintendent Of construction of
the immense power station being
constructed at the Great falls Of the
Missouri.
The date for the 1912 meeting was
left to the executive committee.

Another New Industry in the City

Another new industry was added
to Glendiye,s ever growing list of
business institutions last Tuesday,
when Messrs. Dow and 0'Connor, two
Young men arrived here from Miles

open up a first class tailor shop. To
say say the least this has been long
felt want here and they should be ac
corded d liberal patronage
Both the promoters are young men
and come to US highly recommended
as first class men in their profession.
They have already ordered large
stock Of fall and winter patterns and
expect to do all kinds Of tailoring
and guarantee every piece Of work
and that it is made IN Glendive
They cater to ladies and gentlemen
and when you want any cleaning or
repairing they are prepared to do it
in first class manner. The new es-
tablishment is located seven doors
east OF the Hotel Jordan, or 800 Mer-
rill avenue. Read their ad elsewhere

back to the old home for burial.
This morning two other employees
were seriously injured while working
on the structure
F. F. Lewis had his right leg
broken above the knee, while Il. E.
Cartee suffered fracture Of the left
arm and an injured jaw. Both are
being cared for at the Samaritan hos
pital.
It seems that human ingenuity has
not reached that refined state, where
it is often possible to erect huge en-
gineering enterprises without the toll
of human life being exacted. It has
ever been thus and doubtless will be
long time into the future. Familiar
ity breeds contempt of surrounding
danger in such conditions.

Government Loses Its N. P. Case

Helena, Aug. 28.-Through con-
gresslonal enactment of March 3,
1911, the government lost today in
the federal court a suit brought in
June, 1910, against the Northern
Pacific railway company and it's sub
sldlary, the Northwestern Improve
ment company, to have Cancelled
patents to approximately 1000 acres
Of land in eastern Montana.
At one time this land was in the
Gros Ventre, Piegan, Blood, Black
feet and River Grow Indian reserva-
tlons. An act Of May i, 1888, re-
stored it to the public domain, and
provided that it was open to entry
only under the mineral, coal, home
stead, desert and townsite laws Of
the United States. Through an er-
ror, the complaint alleged, the Nor
thern Pacific was allowed to select it
as lieu land under its second indem-
nifty grant. The contention of the
government was that under the law
restoring the land to the public do
main it could not be selected by the
railroad as part of its grant.
Judge Rasch found it unnecessary
to pass upon this question, In my
opinion, he says, the approved
selections of the lands in controver-
sY and patents issued therefor, now
sought to be annulled, were, if de-
fective at all. validated by the amen
datory legislation Of March 3, 1911" !"
In another memorandum opinion
in the suit Of Peter McDermott and
other members Of the Butte Teams
ters union against the American
Bonding company Of Baltimore
Judge Rasch held that the plaintiff
was entitled to judgment in the sum
of So, ,174.5G and costs. The union
sued to recover on the bond Of a
treasurer who appropriated moneys
of the union in the foregoing sum to
his own use. The bonding company
refused to pay because of some slip
in the payment Of the premium on
the bond.
Memorandum opinions in other
cases were as follows:
Tennie Greenough VS.. the Missou-
Ia Light and Water company. An
action to compel the defendant COM
pany to live up to an oral contract
to furnish lights for the plaintiff 5
residence at $3.50 per month, in

right to recover .overruled.

to the plaintiff complaint
on the ground that the
facts do not show negligence for
which the defendant company would
be responsible.

Evidently we are not ashamed of the title. but consider it great privilege to announce the glad tiaings of the coming King, but we are not time-setffhg Adyentlsts. Christ said no man knoweth the day or the hour. It is no new thing but A part of the cid. cid story that has been told and believed for thousands of years. It has bean the hope of Gods people throughout all ages People or God have looked forward to it wth the dead w1a be raised, sin will be banishea. safap destroyed and the kingdom of Christ established forever and ever. Chrastss second coming is an absolute necessity fer the compile tien of the plan of redemption. He must come the sscoHd time and make actual what His first coming made possible as He came the first time. He must come the second. Christ died to destroy sin to destroy the devil. to destroy sorrow, sickness, pains and death, but these things are not yet ae conPiished so the scriptures teach that He will come again to make actual what His death made possible. The second coming of Christ will be per senal and visible. the same Jesus that was once hsre Oa earth will be seen ceming in tHe clouds of heaxen with all the holy angels with Him as yari- ous scriptures teetify. The heavens shah depart as 8 scroll the earth will reel to and fire, f,e dead will be raised and caught up to me ct ,the Lord in he air with the righteous 5I3ping by the angels of God. There wifi be only two classes on the earth in that day, one class will call for the rocks and the mountains to fall onS them. the other class will say: .T,e. this is our God, we have waited for Him and He will save us''
