Bismarck Tribune: The Indian
dances at the third State Industrial
exposition, which commences Oct. T.,
are to be a distinct feature of enter
tainment. These dances will be unique
and spectacular. Many of them have
never been given off the tribal reser-
vations, and all of them have an indi-
vidual significance that is very inter-
esting to students of Indian folk lore.
Judge by our standards of the terpsi-
chorean art, the movements of the
participants seem weird and some
what labored, IN occasion, but there
Is a weight of legend and history back
of each figure that compels respect
and prompts inquiry from the most
injurious concerning the sometimes
tragic events OF which. the ceremonial
is symbolical. Contrast these stately
functions with the frivolous praneings
of the latest travesties that we white
people dignity with the name of dane
es and you will surely admit that
something can be learned from the
aboriginal Of the great plains.

the thousands Of children all over the
land. In large cities and in the coun-

carrying lunch is necessity.
IL anybody who has not prepared a
lunch basket two hundred days In the
year calls 1t an easy task, she has not
given the matter any thought.
II we could look into the lunch
baskets of our working people and re-

would not marvel at the inroads of dis
ease, divorce, suicide and crime. A
mans food largely determines what
he is.
Our boys, as well as our girls,
should be taught in the grades the
simple food principles how to arrange
a balanced meal and how to prepare
the common foods In an economical
and wholesome manner. Then II the

T.R. MAY GO BY AUTO.
Planning to Cross the Andes in a
Gasoline Wagon.

Buenos Aires, Oct. "a change is
contemplated in Colonel RooSevelt's S
program whereby he may cross the
Andes by automobile instead of by
train the latter part of next month.
While the Transandean railway af-
fords a novel journey, it is believed
that the trip by motor car would
prove still more interesting to the dis
tinguished American visitor, and it is
understood that he has already favor
ed the automobile trip over the noun
tains. 1t is probable he will go from
Buenos Aires to Mendoza by rail,
bringing him to the foothills of the
Andean range, and from there go by
automobile to Santiago de Chile and
Valparaiso IN which cities he has
planned to make stop of five days.
The trip across the Andes will prob
ably be made through the Uspallaspa
pass. In places the road is fine and
broad but in others narrow and runs
at a height of 1880 feet above sea
level. The pass is just to the south
of Mount Aconcagua which is 1898
feet high. Severe storms are common
over this route and as refuge for trav-
elers a number of small stone houses
have been scattered along the course.
In returning to Buenos Aires, Colonel
Roosevelt may use the TranSandean
tunnel which was completed in 1909

C0LDEST EVER.
All October Records Broken
When Needle Drops to 20.
1t Was % in 1SS7-The Biz
zard Has Passed On.

Kansas is in the grip of the most
severe cold wave ever recorded in the
month of October. The temperature
record was broken this morning at
Topeka when at six O'Clock the mer-
curry reached the twenty degree mark.
The former record was 22 degrees on
Oct. 26, 1887. Temperatures in Kan
sas ranged from fifteen to twenty five
degrees below normal this morning.
1t is a Christmas brand of weather
that is being experienced.
This is one of the few October cold
waves on record at the local govern
ment Office, and chances are that it
will be of but short duration. The
sky was clear this morning, but a
cold breeze blowing at the rate of
twenty mile an hour from the north
west is preventing the mercury from
rising with any great degree of rap
idity. The area of high pressure
that caused the drop in temperature
is rapidly moving eastward.
The drop in temperature from sew
en- o'clock Monday morning to seven
o'clock this morning was twenty de-
grees. There was a rise of two de-
grees from six O'Clock this morning
when the low mark was reached to
seven o'clock when the thermometer
reading was % degrees.
local weather man, but two other Oc-
tobers have equaled this month for
number of days on which snow fell
three. Snow fell on three days in
both 1898 and 1908.
There was a half inch Of ice on the
pools and ponds in and around To-
peka this morning.
The cold weather has made bust
ness brisk for the coal men and the
clothing stores.
1t Only Warmed Up a Little.
The weather moderated but little
today. The temperature at 2 o'clock
this afternoon was 33 degrees, and the
temperature for the "a hours ending
at that hour was "a degrees below
normal.
The mercury is expected to fall to
the vicinity of the 25A degree mark to-
night, but Thursday rise in tempera-
tufe is predicted. The forecast calls
for fair weather tonight with increas-
ing cloudinesS Thursday. The tenn
perature in Montana this morning was
higher than that of Topeka.

Meeting of Board of Directors
in New York.
MOORE-REID STILL In CONTROL
But Phelps-DOdge Man /
Chairman of Board.
Thomas Nj. Schumacher, New
Rock Island Factor.

New York, Oct. 29.-Daniel G. Reid,
retired today as chairman of the board
of directors of the Chicago Rock Is
land & Pacific Railway company in
favor of Thomas NJ. Schumacher, vice
president of the El Paso & Southwest
ern Railroad company which is con-
trolled by the banking firm of Phelps
Dodge & Co. Mr.. Schumacher was
elected to this new position at a meet
ing of the Rock Island directors and
was also chosen chairman of the roads
executive committee succeeding w. H.
Moore.
Although it is understood that Phelps,
Dodge & Co. has purchased a stock in
terest in the Rock Island it was an
nounced Mr.. Schumacher's election
did not indicate any change in the con-
troll of the system which, it was sta
ted, still lies with the Moore-Reid in
terests. The executive committee of
the road as constituted today consists
in addition to Mr.. Schumacher of W.
H Moore, D. G. Reid, Arthur C. James,
H. u Nudge, James Mclean, F. L.
Hine and Edward ). Moore.
Mr.. Nudge was reelected president
of the road.
The news of the reelection of H
U. Nudge as president of the Rock
Island Lines was greeted with great
satisfaction by Rock Island people
in Topeka this afternoon. The fact
that the man who has built up the
Rock Island in hard times has surviv-
ed a change in the directorate indf-
Gates that his services will be re-
tanned to carry out the expansion pol
icy of the road in the future 1t
means that the district organization
plan arranged by President Nudge a
few years ago will remain intact and
the second district headquarters un-
doubtedly will be retained in To-
peka.
1t was feared by some. on account
of unauthorized and wild rumors
printed by a morning paper in To-
peka, that President Nudge would be
removed from the presidency owing
to the retirement of Daniel G. Reid
and the immense block of stock
owned by the PhelpS-Do interests.
President Nudge was not removed. His
value to the road was recognized by
all interests.
In the meeting of directors today
it was announced that Thomas NJ.
vice president of the Ell
Paso & Southwestern, was elected
chairman of the board of directors to
succeed d. G. Reid as chairman of
the board and w. H. Moore as chair
man of the executive committee. This
gives the head of the Rock Island to
a Phelps-Dodge representative and
control in all but official designation.
There is no doubt now that the
Phelps-Dodge finances can be lined
up behind the Rock Island resulting in
an increased support to the improve
ment and betterment program out
lined some time ago.
The election today brings out
bright and rosy future to the extern
sion of the roads interests and its
place among the leaders in transcon-
traffic.

With William Sulzer
for His Pardon.
APPLICATION is MADE PUBLIC
In His Letter He Promised to
Expose Tammany.
To Be Held in Confidence Until
He Was Free.

New York, Oct. 29.-The letter of a
convict in Sing Sing, as given out by
William Sulzer, deposed governor and
present candidate for the state assem-
bly, on the Progressive ticket, was again
today the axis about which reVolVeo
the heated controversy of personality
and invective incident to New York
mayoralty campaign. From his cen
in Sing sing eX-State Senator Stephen
Stilwell repudiated the correctness OF
his written application for pardon as
made public by Sulzer. He was backed
up by James M. Clancy, warden of the
prison.
Standing by Stilwell, but denying
that he was attempting to shield
Tammany, Clancy promptly wrote out
his resignation and sent it to the state
department of prisons. The Stilwell
letter, as given out, was in brief an
application for a pardon in return for
an exposure of "boSS rule" in New
York City. StilwelIs alleged over
lures along this line were further de-
tailed by John Hennessy, campaigner
against Tammany. He told of con-
ference with Stilwell in prison; Of
Stilwells boast that he could put
Murphy in Jail and could intimidate
certain legislators and swing them
into line for Sulzer at the impeach-
ment proceedings. According to
Hennessy, Stilwell demanded his
pardon first, and no terms could be
agreed upon. The fact that Hennessy
even outlined what took place be-
tween them was credited today as
having brought about Warden
Clancy's resignation.
John B. Riley, state superintendent
of prisons, was quoted as follows:
Mr.. Clancy told me Monday that
the statements made by Stilwell to
Hennessy We're made with the distinct
understanding and agreement that they
should not be used under any circum-
stances until Stilwel was pardoned.
1t was agreed that Mr.. Hennessy should
be at liberty to use Stilwelrs statement
when the pardon had been granted.
and not before. Warden Clancy told
messy, should break his agreement with
Stilwell.''
Clancy Is Endorsed.

tendent Riley of the state prison de-
that it would not be accepted Mr.

Ossining, N. Y, Oct. 29.-Warden
left yesterday for New York to look
for a job This job, he said, he ex-
pected to find tonight. He reiterated
that he had no intention of reconsid-
ering his resignation as warden
Stilwell, he said, would say nothing
today. "He is a broken man." he
added.

recent order of the commissioner of
pensions that Civil war veterans seek

Many deserving veterans would suf-

would find it impossible to comply
with the requirements. This it was
pointed out was especially true of the
negro veterans, many of whom were
born in slavery

Chicago. Oct. 29--Suggestions for the
