On all the frontiers of the world bear are considered as being menace and a danger to the settler. They kill his pigs and calves; they rob his caches and his beehives, and do not at times, hesi tate to kill the owners. In Norway they have sought to eXterminate them for a thousand years and they are still found there. In Pennsylvania they have for two hundred years offered bounGies for their scalps and they are still extant there. la Alaska are the largest and most ferocious bears in the world. h. stead of the government offering a bounty for their scalps, they are pro- tected by law. If bear kills a settlers hogs there is no recourse: The owner can do nothing. No damages are pro- vided by law. If the bear kills the man there is no penalty. If the man kills the bear and it is out of season, he is fined for breaking the law.-EX.

Merchants of Nome, finding the sup. ply of home dust low and the prospect of local business slow, are out after the dust of the interior, says Fairbanks paper. They intend to get it without moving from their own firosides, and actually propose that the people of the interior bring it to them in caribou pokes. The success of the scheme de pends upon Ghe willingness of the steamship companies that take on pas sengers at St. Michael to land these passengers at Nome and leave them there for day or so among the crib. board and mucluc shops, the three meal cafes and the every-now and-then buffets. Against the hint of financial cannibaism, these Nome merchants shield themselves by laying claim to commendation for preparing the de- parting Alaskan gently for his recep- tion in Seattle. Besides, they say, the Seattle Spirit would absorb all the dust anyway.

PATH FINDERS WILL
Be GRANDFORKS
on FRIDAY
Tour From the Twin Cities to
Helena Is on-Mud Roads

II the pathfinders sent out by the
Minnesota Automobile association to
blaze the way for the tour from the
twin cities to Helena are able to face
the North Dakota rains and present
road conditions with any degree of
success, they will reach Grand Forks
some time tomo1 row. Leaving st.
Paul Wednesday morning, the party
reached Sank Center. MIMI, before
night.
This morning the pathfinder left
Sank Center in the face OF fifty
mile gale. but 1t was expected that
Fargo would be reached some time
this afternoon or evening. Tomor
row morning the pathfinder leaves
that city for Grand Forks.
With the present road conditions
existing the task of the pathfinder
is no mean one. Hitting the mud
roads Of the Red river valley will pro-
vide experience for the members Of
the pathflnding party such as they
will have reason to remember for
some time to come. From Grand
Forks the party works west to Rug
by, Minot, Williston, Glasgow, Havre,
Great Falls and Helena. It is ex-
pected that it will require all of two
weeks to make the run.
The car is equipped with rope,
block and tackle. axes and spades.
It is the one that acted as press
car in the 1910 Glidden and was
driven by George Daubner, who has
taken part in three Glidden tours and
drove last year in the Elgin races.
The machine was taken to Hastings
for a trial trip, after 1t arrived from
the factory to get the lay of the
northwestern roads,.
A. P. Heaney withdrew from the
trip and in his place went Eddie Ov-
enshire taking with him his bulldog
Mike, who has accompanied the driv-
err on former state runs. On board
also was Clyde e. Babcock, telegraph
operator, Secretary G. 8. Harrington,
official pathfinder and Howard Kahn,
the press representative.
Rueben Warner, president of the
state association and DR.. G. e. Dut-
ton, representing the American Auto
mobile association, started the car
off.

enas 4 Meet the twin city auto
lists III iontana capital. This car
will start so as to arrive In Helena
at the same time as the twin city
pathfinder.
One new idea in the pathfinding
trip is the camping equipment which
the car crew will utilize on the route
between hotel towns.
/ The car is equipped with right
I and left odometer, from which the
pathfinder takes rotations to be put
in the guide book next summer for
the use of the tourists.
The pathfinder probably will make
more than the 1880 miles in the aver
age distance to Helena, as the tenta-
tive route book which Mr.. Harring-
ton has contains several optional
runs and he will have to pick out
what in his judgment will be the most
feasible one for next July.

CARL BRUCKNER A VETERAN
Has Been 'Cellist With Chicago Or.
chestra for Years and Solo
Work Receives Praise

Carl Brueckner, 'cellist with the
Chicago orchestra, who gives the last
number of Wesley college artists
at the auditorium Friday evening is
considered a veteran in that organ
ization and Of recent appearance as
soloist the Chicago Record-Herald
speaks as follows:
"The soloist Of the afternoon was
Carl Brueckner, one of the veterans
among the violoncellists of the Or
chestra. This performer had not
found representation on programmes
he played in the season of 1904--and
his appearance-or temperance
testified to the remarkable material
that Is contained in the ranks of Mr..
Stocks musicians. Mr.. Brueckner
chose Lalo's violoncello concerto
wherewith to display his powers, and
in the Interpretation of this work he
made manifest the possession of con-
siderable technical maturity and a
tone, which, If it was not of uncom-
mon sorority, was colored with ap-
pealing qualities of poetry and charm.
"The concerto is not highly I'M
pressive work. Well put together,
neatly scored. effectively considered
from the standpoint Of solo artist,
the work yet fails to impress itself
upon the soul of a critical hearer.
Concertos for the violoncello are, per-
haps, never exceedingly convincing
works of art. The instrument is un-
fitted for the performance of brilliant
passage-work such as is considered
necessary to this form of compost
ton; and its first string is the only
one OF the four strings that is suit
able for such passages, or, indeed, for
the playing of expressive melody. That
Mr.. Brueckner made Lalo's work as
effective as he caused it to appear
was much to his artistic credit. In
response to general applause he in
terpreted an arrangement of noe
turne by Chopin"

may take advantage of the shopping
advantages offered in Grand Forks

that will be discussed.
