Not As Dumb as He Looks and Pursues Wise
Course in Not Telling All lie Knows.
A good many editors are said not to
know much. The trouble is that they
know such lot of stuff they dare not
tell. They know who drinks the beer,
and they know the ladies who deviate
from the straight path of rectitude.
They know the boys who smoke in the
alleys and dark places, and the girls
who are out auto riding till the roosters
GROW for daylight. They know the fell
lows who are good to pay and they
know the fellow who cannot get trusted
for tobacco bag full of salt. They
could guess at once why some fellows
go to Rapid or Deadwood and they can
also guess pretty closely what they
would do when they got there. Even
in town like this they know enough
to make one of the ed-hottest, rip.
snorting, double. gesred, back action,
chain tightening editions you ever
read, but they also know it is best for
the community and themselves to let
the law take care of humanity's devil
ment and publish only such news as
will do to read at the freside and in
the Sunday school.

The money for the erection of this

portion, and the remainder will be as

be q credit to the efforts of Rev. Fr

one of the finest men and one Of the
best hustlers in this diocese.
In support of the last statement VIC
would say that the fact that he has un.

he fills regular appointments and
where he has built up the membership
to great extent should prove the
truth of our words. At present Hot

CHANGES in THE NATIONAL FOREST.

Considerable Changes in the National Forests
inMontana, Arizona, Nevada, and Utah.,
President Taft has just made consi.
dersble changes in National Forests in
Montana, Arizona, Nevada, Utah and
California through Presidential pro.
clamations modifying the boundary
lines. By these changes nearly 275,
600 acres of land are eliminated from
the Forests, about $1,000 are added,
and about 5000 acres are transferred
between two Forests, while new For
est is created by the division of an old
unit into two.
The net result is to bring down the
total gross area of the National Forests
to about 1877, 100000 acres, of which
nearly q, 100000 acres, are in Alaska.
To considerable extent, however, the
reductions, 80 far as land actually
owned by the Government is concern.
ed, are apparent rather than real, ow-
ing to heavy alienation in the tracts
eliminated. Some $4,000 600 acres of
the National Forest gross area are not
owned by the Government.
The high water mark of the National
Forest gross area was reached in 1909,
when the Forest boundaries included
over 1874, 100000 acres. It was then
realized, however, that in making the
examinations on which the Presidential
proclamstions creating the Forests
were based the work had been too rapid
to insure in all cases the best boun-
daries.. Sometimes land which should
have been included was left out, while
at other times land uas taken in which
was not best suited to Forest purposes.
Consequently complete overhaul
ing and rectificstion of the Forest
boundaries was planned, and has been
going on ever since. BIZ successive

Northfield, Vermont, where he went
eight weeks ago for visit with his
mother and to attend commencement
at Norwich University, where his son
Roy has been in attendance the past

They made the trip here from New
England in Model T Ford touring
car which Mr.. Juckett purchased from
Ted Hummel and had it shipped east
to him from Detroit The car registered
3175 miles when it arrived at Hot
Springs and they made this entire dis
tance without any repair bill whatever
The only trouble they encountered in
the whole distance was three punctures
and blow out, the total time of these
delays amounting to about an hour
One of the rear tires on this Ford has
not been even pumped up since it left
the factory. The record of the car is
regarded by automobile men as very re.
markable, and reflects credit to the
machine and to the manner in which
it has been driven.
MIR. Juckett kept on a schedule as

constant driving to reach here July 10

when they come here; the recoveries of
the patients treated, and the large
number of successful operations per.
formed, as shown by the annual report
now being prepared.
Capt. j. L. Denman, of Hot Springs,
known to everyone In the Black Hills
and who at one time was quartermaster
of this institution, is just recovering
from a very delicate operation per.
formed recently by Governor Mattison
and staff. In spite Of the captains age
he has gotten along splendidly and has
recovered sufficiently to return to his
home. He cannot get over praising
the sanitsrium for the fine treatment
he received.
The irrigation system on the grounds
has had an extention made to it this
season. This was done by means of
laying pipes along the roadways and
over the grounds in such manner that
every section of the large sodded lawn
can be reached and watered easily.
The extention is connected with the
new pump but lately installed. There
is no digging down into the ground IL
any part of the new system gets out Of
repair, as the piping is 90 laid that it is
easily ACCESSIBLE.
John 8. Ray, formerly q postmaster
in Nebraska, recently underwent q
difficult operation. He came here with
large tumor ON the back of his left
hand. Governor Mattison removed
this tumor, and, as the growth had
taken out SO much of the back Of the
hand, he sewed the back Of that hand
to the fleshy part Of the patients right
arm, and thus grated new flesh onto
the wounded hand. For ten days the
patients arms we're fastened together,
and he had to be fed, but the new flesh
was successfully grated from the right
arm to the left hand and the patient
is now doing nicely with almost new
hand.
Undoubtedly the best and most mod
ern X-ray machine of the country was
just received at Battle Mountain Sani-
tarium. It is the most complete and

process of being installed. With the
new machine it will be possible to take
X ray photographs of any fracture or
part of the body, or do any of the other
fests accomplished by a contrivance Of
this kind. The new machine Was
selected by Governor Mstteson during
his vacation trip, after having seen q
number of makes Of machines tested.
After a thorough try out this one was
chosen as the best.
George V. White, a Spanish American
soldier who was sent here from Cali

articular rheumatism in practically sll

made q splendid recovery from the
same. After getting rid Of the rheu.
matism, however, it was found that
several joints of his feet were drawn
out Of place, so it was necessary to re-
sort to surgical measures to correct
this condition. Parts of several bones
we're removed, new joints were made
and his toes were strsightened, this
being necessary to make It possible for
him to wear his shoes. It is quite
likely that he will return to California
