her shame on the witness stand, and

Just the other evening, after a long

Nobody knew that the bride was in
he shadow of crisis. They went
away to Benton County, Tennessee,
and there, August Is, their baby was
born.
They could not endure the confess
sion of shame so tardily rectifed.
So Arnold suggested that they leave
the infant somewhere for while and
claim it later. The bride-mother pro-
tested frantically, but at last yielded.
The baby was placed on the Paris
doorstep. And people wondered at
the brides wistfulness when the
honeymoon was hardly over.

Mrs. Arnold became worse. She

GOPHER DAY At JUDITH GAP.

A short time ago an old friend ask
ked, "What are we going to do about
the gochers; they are destroying my
grain. have shot away Il good deal
of ammunition, but it seems to do no
good. They are just as thick as ever
and are doing me lots of damage"
The live people Of the Judith Gap
country seeem to have solved the
question in Il practical way according
to al. article in the Judith Gap Jour
nal.
The citizens Of Judith Gap organ
lied committee, raised fund and
paid one cent piece for gopher tails
and an addition Of fine prizes for the
first, second. third and fourth highest
number Of tails brought in by any one
individual. One boy, Carl Heron.
brought in the astonishing number of
l,467 tails: and another boy, James
Lutz, brought in LOO. The grand
total of tails amounted to ~, $50 and
the journal estimates lnat 10000
gophers were killed in obtaining the
1879 tails.
We think the Journals estimate of
number killed, is fair estimate.
We have had some experience in
shooting gophers, and for two Oh
three springs have had to make Il
business of killing the pests. Unless
we made dead shot the gopher
would get into it's hole, rs they are
tenacious of life and shot through

The people Of Judith Gap have made

that the value of Montana's products

was sent to San Francisco by Mr.. J..

the cooperation of Governor S. v.

counties OF Montana toward raising

State Commissioner DR.. Scanland
visited San Francisco on special mis-
sion of investigation into the condi.

Z thoroughness and earnestness that
has greatly impressed the exposition
officials, DR.. Scanland has completed
his investigation and has declared
that the worlds fair of 1915 offers to
the state of Montana an opportunity
of proving to the world her great and
unbounded resources-an opportunity
such as she has never had before.
