What Is aims to be is a blood -curdline
tale Of the high seas, but even the
fury Of the elements, 8 mutiny, a

Helena to attend a mass meeting OF
property owners there, relative to the
formation of a district which antici-
pated the building Of forty miles of
macadam road south of Helena. This
road will be in the nature of loop,
the farthest point being about fifteen
miles from Helena. There is ques-
ton as to whether this district will be
organized under special act or the
legislature, or under the state road
law In either instance the property
owners will probably sign up suffi-
cient amount of the land value in the
district, to create the district at this
meeting. There will be little ahead
then before active construction can
begin.
