essels, paper and crayons, but his ca
pacity and resourcefullness as q lee

Stockmen Fear Loss.

MILES CITY, Feb. 28.-Range con-
ditions in Custer county remain very
discouraging for the stockmeu, while
for the dry farmer they present just
the contrary aspect. The snow Ia the
Ekalaka country is reported as 10
inches deep on the level. This suow
has been on the ground ever since the
middle of December and is really in
the form of ice, from altern ately melt
ing and freezing. For the first time
IN the Ekalaka district in years bsled
hay is being hauled to stock growers.
In the Carlyle country conditions
are just as bad, as far as the stock
growers are concerned, the snow be.
ing from one to two feet deep. AS
the Carlyle country Is settled thickly
and principally by bomesteaders who
intend to try dry farming, however,
the snow is beneficial to them.

The Birth Of Blaine County.

HELENA, March 1.-Blaine county
spraug into existence at 5:25 o'clock
last evening, at which time the GER
tifcate from the county board of COM
m~issioners of Chouteau county, set
ting forth the vote had been canv ass
ed and that more than IS per cent OF
it was In favor of the creation of the
new county, was received and fled In
the Office of the secretary state. This
was the final step In the creation Of the
county.
The following proclamation was is-
sued today by Governor Norris:
"Whereas, Certi6cation has been
duly made to the secretary OF state,
in the manner and form prescribed by
law to the effect that at an election
held on the 10Th day of February, 1912.

GaIen lnterprets Laws.

HELENA, March LIN an opinion
given today by Attorney General
Galen to the state railway commits
sion he holds that sheriffs and their
deputies, when in pursuit OF GRIM
inals or upon other important Official
business, may ride on freight trains in
Montana when they have regular
transportation. In permitting these
officers to ride the railroads are
are not compelled to extend the same
privilege to other classes Of passen
gers, says the opinion.
In another opinion Mr.. Galen holds
that the boundaries of school districts
may not be changed between the 1st
day OF March and the 1st day of Sep
TENDER. He says the law does not
specifically forbid it but the law does
for bid the creation of new school dis.
tricts between the dates named. He
says If the law against the creation Of
new districts between the lst Of March
and the LIST OF September is to preven'
the alteration of district lines during
taxation and census periods, thel
that purpose and reason would appl!
with equal force to the alteration o
boundaries. The opinion has no re
lation to the correction OF errors o,
conflicts In the boundaries Of schoo
districts.

PredictsKWool Shortage.

BILLINGS, March 2.-As far as can
be ascertained, no wool has been sold
or contracted in this locality, and
eastern concerns have been on the
ground accommodating, they have
been unable to convince the grower
that the figures offered, II to Is cents
we're sufficient to purchase a single
pound of this seasons clip. The ma
jority of the lockmasters have been
advised of conditions as they actual
ly exist, and there is every Indication
tn at few, If any, will dispose of their
holdings for less than 20 cents.
"As q matter of fact said Will.
liam Rea, q local woolgrower,
"there is no reason why wool should
not be just as high during the ensu.
ing season as it has ever been.
"The price Of the commodity, the
same as that of any other commercial
article, is regulated by the law OF
supply and demand, and this year
the demand is as strong as ever be-
fore, but there Ia q shortage OF sup
ply. The London sales show the
American buyers are not getting any
thing in that quarter worth speaking
of and even when they turn to the
United States the amount in sight Is
below that OF last year.
"This is due to the fact that within
the last nine months from 100000 tt
1000, 900 sheep were driven to marke
on account of drouth, so this mean'

The Coolest Place On Earth.

What is said to be the coolest place
on the globe Is the region OF Verk-
holensk, Siberia. Here is q convict
station. but during most of the year
no guards are needed to keep the
prisoners from running away, for in
the more severe portions of the winter
no living creature can remain in the
p and during the three most severe
months when the temper ature some
times falls to IS degrees below zero,
no one dares to venture out for more
than q few minutes ut a time. Ordi-
nary steel tools will snap like glass.
and unseasoned wood becomes as hard
az steel. When n breathes q pow.
der like the very finest snow falls at
ones feet.
1t is said that there are less forms
of insect life here than elsewhere In
the world, and some OF those found
are not found elsewhere, seemingly
having been created especially to In
habit euch q frigid region. Some O.
the signal service officers declare tina
most OF the severe cold waves tina
sweep across the North American con
tinent have their origin in Verkho
lensk. The wind blows q perfect gall
almost all the time, and that discom
fort, added to the low temperature
would certainly make this q very un
pleasant place in which to spend th'
winter.

1t was a hot day in June and in
company with a friend who wished TO
learn something about the lives Of
the very poor | was visiting in the
worst quarter OF East London, writes
Thomas Holmes in "Londons Under
world.
As We moved from house TO house
the thick air of within and the dirt
within and without were almost too
much for us. The boX-like rooms. the
CRIME of the men, women and ch.l-
Gren. combined with the Filth in the
streets and cutters, made us sick and
faint. We asked ourselves whether
il was possible that anything decent
virmous or intelligent could live
under such conditions.
The place was dignifed by the
name OF street, although in reality
70 was blind alley for high wall
Closed one end Of IT, II was very
narrow, and while infants PLAYED in
the unclean cutters frowsy women
discussed domestic or more exciting
matters with women Oh the opposite
side.
