More Walters Than Guests.

More Walters Than Guests
| There are at present more walters
than guests in the Swiss hotels situated
at high attitudes, as the result of the
continuous cold and rain during July
The hotels in the valleys, however, are
crowded with tourists, who have been
waiting for weeks for better weather
| to go up into the mountains.
| The first part of the summer season
has been complete failure, and it is
estimated that hotel proprietors, rail-
roads and storekeepers have lost over
| 81 100000. Climbing in the higher Alps
has been too dangerous this season, and
Lake Constance has overlooked in sew
eral parts, flooding number OF villages
and towns. As result the tourist trav-
el has been unusually light The wealth.
er now, however, shows signs of inn
proving and visitors probably soon will
begin to flock to the higher levels, but
| it is too late to prevent the season of
1913 from being one of the worst OF
many years.
France to Coin Gold Reserve.
The bank of France has decided to
strike into coin the whole OF its gold
metal reserve amounting to S600,000,000.
The decision of the bank was caused
by the recent gold crisis in Europe, and
the fact that foreign banks, in troub-
lous times, do not lik to take gold
in the form of bars. At the rate at
which the gold is being minted, about
$4,000 twenty franc gold pieces day,
it will take at least two years for the
whole of the reserve to be coined.
A Peculiar Congress.
A curious congress, that of the Tn
firm and Atrophied of France" will be
held in Paris during October.
The program of the congress has not
yet been made public, but among other
festivities will be a reception at the
Hotel de Vile which the municipal
councillors promised, without realizing
what it might entail. 1t has now been
pointed out to the councillors that the
legless and otherwise infirm delegates
viii have great difficulty in ascending
to the reception rooms, and the question
of installing an elevator for the occasion
is being discussed.
Ground for Acquittal.
The number of persons acquitted by
French jtiries on the ground OF partial
responsibility is growing to dangerous
proportions, and the question is likely
to be dealt with shortly by Parliament.
The urgency of the problem has been
brought up by resolution of the jury
at the Paris assizes, which points out
that the law, as it stands at present,
leaves them no alternative between out
right acquittai and the infection of pen
alties which, under the circumstances,
are excessive. The jury explains it has
to deal with persons who, while not en-
tirely responsible for their actions, are
yet sufficiently responsible to deserve
some punishment, instead of being al
lowed to go scotfree.
Special prison sanatoriums are advo-
Gated as the best means of dealing with
this class of prisoners.

Under the federal constitution the

wagon, well known as q rancher and
alfalfa grower, WIS in Philip today, and
gave a. talk to Is Business men, his
subject being the Bierwagen irriga-
ton project. A map had been pre-
reservoirs, bitches and portion Of the
lrrigable tracts. s. III. Lea, who was
South Dakotas state engineer until
the recent change of administration,
looked into this project carefully and
regarded is as feasible. Many of the
business men of this city, who at first
thought the plan wild one, were con-
WINGED by Mr. Bierwagen's talk that 1t
| Is practicable.
Congressman EbenS w. Martin has
given the project endorsement. stating
that IL 1t proves feasible after prelim-
mary survey, the development could
pc carried out by the federal govern
ment under the reclamation act.
The principal dam would be located
across the Cheyenne river near Buffalo
Gap, 40 miles south of Rapid City, this
lam to be constructed of masonry at
cost OF $2,50o.000 to 100000. A flood
gate would form part OF this dam and
when sand and sediment had collected
In the reservoir above the dam, the
foodgate could be opened and the
wand released, the current forcing 1t
down the channel of the river
A transmission ditch would convey
the water from the masonry dam to
point so miles northeast, emptying into
a basin in the Bad Lands which would
be formed by the construction of two
dams across outlets of an immense
natural reservoir. The capacity of this
basin. which is near the town of Quinn
has been estimated by engineers at
more than 100000 foot acres.
From this reservoir near Quinn,
which is 20 miles west of Philip and
about SO miles east of Rapid city, the
main ditch would carry the water
northeast to the Hardingrove flats, 25
miles north of here.
The business men of Philip will as
semble this evening to organize the
work of getting information as to the
irrigable area in this vicinity
reconnaissance survey has been
authorized by the state legislature, an
appropriation of $4,000 having been
made Mr. Bierwagen will assist State
Engineer Derr in this work. which will
start about May Is.
