ROME. Jan. 5.-The harassment by
the Italian government as a suspect
ed military spy of Dorothea MacVane,
the American opera singer, is de-
scribed in a written statement by
Miss MacVane's sister. Edith. the
novelist. The statement is based on
letters received from Dorathea, who
sent them under cover to other per-
sons i'm order to insure their trans
mission. The statement says in part.
"The reason of the Italian govern
ments suspicious against my sister
was first of all her habits of an ath-
letic American girl. Ignorant of the

WITH HIGH OR NATURAL WAIST LIME.

The skirt in peg top style is an unqu,ess-
toned favorite. II gives the fashionable
effect of broad hips and it takes graceful
folds. This one consists of only one piece,
scanned at the center front, while the
closing is made invisibly at the left OF
the back. 1t can be put together in tho
shortest possible space of time and It can
be finished at the high waist line over
webbing or at the natural waist line with
a belt. skirts Of this kind are made from
suiting materials and fine serge and the
like and also from silks such as charmeuse
satin or Canton crepe for very dressy
occasions, so that the model serves many
uses. II is sufficiently drawn in at the

AUTO
TURNS TURTLE

Last Thursday night when
Commissioners Nelson and Finn
and County Surveyor Bonner, ac-
companied by E. H. Rathbone,
were returning to Ravalli from a
visit to the country west of Ro-
nan, they had very narrow es-
cape. Bert Ethel was driving
the car and when about one third
of the way down the Ravalli hill
the car commenced to skid and
turned the front end into the
bank. In less than a second the
car lay bottom side up crossways
of the road, with three of the
occupants Nelson, Finn and
Ethel underneat h. Without
knowing how it was done. Bon.
ner and Rathbone lit clear of the
wreck, but the former fell and
slightly bruised his right elbow
and forearm.
Finn and Nelson Immediately
extricated themselves from the
wreck, but Ethel was pinned
down by the steering wheel. He
was soon released and was
not seriously injured. Nelson
received a cut on the scalp that
bled freely but amounted to
nothing serious. Flinn's right
arm and shoulder was slightly
bruised.
After an inventory of all con-
cerned. hearty congratulations
were extended all around, each
one feeling that the escape from
serious injuries was nothing short
Of miraculous. The car was
travelling at about twenty miles
an hour, and just how all es-
capped, and especially those who
lit underneath the car, has not
at this writing been figured out.
Ihe occupants made it from
there into Ravalli on foot, ar
irving just in time to climb on
No. 6 as it was pulling out.

RESIDENTS or RESERVATION HEIRS
TO LARGE KANSAS CITY FORTUNE

Mrs. August Finley and sew
eral others living on the reser-
walton are heirs to a large estate
in Kansas City, which an at
torney in Butte is now engaged
in negotiating a settlement. 1t
seems that years ago a grand
father was given a tract of land
in Kansas City and afterward he
purchased more land and it be-
came part of the city limits.
Afterwards the grandfather died
and an effort was made to pro-
bate the estate and all the heirs
except those on the Flathead re-
ceived their share of the estate.
This knowledge came to Mike
Nice year or so ago and he has
been working in connection with
a Butte attorney on the matter
ever since. The Butte lawyer
has undertaken to force a new
settlement and to accomplish
this object has made several trips
to Kansas City and Washington
and has secured an abstract of
title and other data which forti-
fies him in his position and last
Sunday he was in Roman in COM
pany with Judge Clements of
Helena, and the heirs here were
in consultation over the matter.
1t is said that the department
of Indian affairs has taken an in
terest in the settlement and a
case will be filed in the u. S.
court at ap early date in their be-
half.
1t is estimated that the amount
due Mrs. Finley and her heirs is
around three million and that
much money would not be a bad
find for anybody.

take up collectively questions of
interest to the community, in
stead of struggling with them
individually.
Meetings should be held once
or twice a month during the
winter months and as frequently
as possible during the summer.
Meetings in the homes Of the
members have at least two ad-
vantages: (1) attendance is
stimulated by the feeling Of OBJ
legation to the host and hostess,
and (2) the knowledge that the
club is soon to meet on a given
farm or in it's home is a great
stimulus to housecleaning and
decoration and corresponding
outdoor activities. "A. D. Wilson,

Sorghum for Fodder

1t has been determined that
sorghum for fodder will yield the
best results of anything so far
tried in western Montana. A
small tract of land was expert
mented on last year in the Bitter
Root and it was found to yield
more tons per acre than either
alfalfa or other roughnass for
stock and a conservative esti-
mate fixed the amount at Is tons
per acre. Cattle and other live
stock eat it readily and it is ex-
cellent producer of milk, besides
is high in proetin or fat produc-
ing qualities.
1t is to be hoped that some of
our reservation farmers will try
it out this year and ascertain how
it will do here. One of the facts
so far made certain is that it is a
good yielder, as the plant stools
out prolifically and this makes it
fine and very excellent. feed.

VAN HOOK APPOINTED STATE
FORESTER BY GOV. STEWART

J. Fl. Van Hook, who was on
the commission which classified
and appraised the lands of the
Flathead during the years of
1912 and 13, and we'll known all
over the reservation, has been
appointed state forester by Gov
ernor Stewart. Mr.. Van Hook
has been connected with the sur
veyor generals office Of Montana
for several years, and aside from
his work on this reservation. has
always given satisfaction. Those
who had applied to homestead
the unappraised lands of the res
ervation feel that his work here
was not satisfactory and many
of them have appealed from the
appraisement made by the COM
mission.
The most censure of the COM
mission comes from those who
have improved the tracts Of
land they had applied for and
they charge that they are being
asked to pay an increased price
for the land because of the fact
that they have made it valuable
by their labor.

EVANS IS HELD UP
BY A M|u|T|AMAN

Representative John M. Evans
of Montana, who is on the COM
mittee appointed to investigate
the Colorado miners strike,
came near being arrested by the
provost guard at Trinidad on
Sunday evening last. 1t seems
the Hon. John M. was walking
about the city and became en-
gagged in conversation with one
of the sentries, when the ser
geant of the guard rode up and
after listening to the conversa-
tion he asked the name and ad-
dress of the stranger.
That is none of your bust
ness. F" replied Mr.. Evans.
You'll have to move on," or
dered the officer.
/ am on my own business and
| am attending to my own bust
ness, I" replied Mr.. Evans.
After some parleying, the Of
ficer rode to headquarters for in
structions, leaving another SOL
der at the place. During his
absence the soldier evidently
learned the identity of the dis
tinguished stranger, and gallop-
ing back saluted and said:
''That's all right, Mr.. Evans,
| owe you an apology" I"
II think you do owe me an
apology, - replied the congress-
man.
In protecting the weaker sex
in Washington and defying the
national guard in Colorado, our
member of congress will soon
have established a reputation for
doing exciting things which will
make him a respected figure in
the house.

HOW TO ORGANIZE
A FARMERS CLUB

The organization of club is
not complicated or difficult. A
good way to start the movement
is for some one in a community
who is interested to invite two or
more of his neighbors to meet at
his home or some other suitable
place. If an interesting program
including singing and speaking
by the young people can be ar
ranged, so much the better. A
dinner or supper should be pro-
vided, as eating together does
more than any one thing to break
down reserve, formality, and dis
trust. 1t is much easier to carry
out a movement of this kind after
a good meal has been served.
The proposition should be talked
over, and it is will if a, consider
able proportion of those present
have talked the matter over be-
forehand, in private conyersa-
ton. No one need have any
fear of joining the club, because
there is no stock sold and no pos
sibility of loss. 1t is simply a
mutual understanding that the
people in the community will

under the direction of the var.
ious agricultural colleges which
will create a demand for instruc..
tors that will be difficult to meet
during the next ten years. This
opens up wonderful possibilities
to teachers, who are prepared
along other lines of their pro-
fession, to spend one or more
years in institutions which they
will then be prepared to repre-
sent at a salary far in advance of
what they now command. Es-
pecially in the field of domestic
science are the opportunities
great for women who have had
teaching experience for they will
be preferred to the younger
graduates who lack both age and
experience.

GOOD ROADS BILL IS
PASSED BY HOUSE

The Shackleford bill, under
which the federal government
would distribute $25, 100000 for
good roads among the various
states, was passed by the house
on Feb. IL, by a vote of 2S2 to
AZ, and now awaits action by the
senate.
The bill appropriates $25, 000,-
600, to be divided, $65, 600 to
each state and the remainder
among the states on the basis of
population and the number of
miles of post roads Each state
must cooperate by appropriating
a dollar for every dollar furnish
ed by the federal government.
Democratic Leader Under
wood, Republican Leader Mann
and Representative Hinebaugh
of Illinois, the ranking progress
sive in the city, ali voted for the
measure. Representative Mann
declared the cities could we'll af-
ford from their wealth to con-
tribute taxes to aid the country
in construction of roads and other
improvements.

GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY Of
THE KNIGHTS OF PYTH|AS

Yesterday was a big day all
over the country and in every
section where lodges of the
order of Knights of Pythias have
been instituted. 1t marked the
golden anniversary of the estab-
lishment of the first lodge Of the
order. The first lodge was or
ganized in the city of Washing
ton, in 1864, and was intended
originally to include only clerks
of the department in Washing
ton. The scope was enlarged as
the teachings of the order be-
came known and the limitations
of membership was so arranged
that any white male person of
good moral character was eligible.
The growth was phenomenal and
today the membership numbers
over a million. It counts among
the active members many of the
most prominent citizens of the
country, and it's benefactions and
good work for the moral advance
ment of the human race has been
eXcelled by no other lodge.
The principal celebration oc-
Cured in Washington where the
officers of the supreme lodge and
many past officers of that order,
with other prominent men, as
sembled to listen to toasts and to
banquet in honor of the 5Oth
birthday. Secretary of State
Bryan, who is a past chancellor
of Lincoln, Nebr. lodge, was
one of the principal speakers.
There is probably no secret
society, strictly American in char
acter, such as the knights of
Pythias is, which has done more
good, advanced more men in
every way and been more bene-
fetal to civilization than this
same order, and so long as friend
ship, charity and benevolence are
the cardinal principles of the
human family, it will continue
50 to be.

building Of the Milwaukee would
hurry the Northern Pacific Won
derfully, as that road would not
relish the taking away of the
traffic which the reservation now
contributes to it's business. Be-
sides, the road which first builds
would have the advantage of
business connections with the
people who live here, and that is
an asset of value. However, the
people here are not concerned so
much over which one gets here
first, they are interested mostly
in having one or both build and
that at an.early date.

RAILROAD TALK
WHICH INTERESTS

There is a revival of talk in
railroad building which is becom-
ing interesting. The continued
good showing made by the re-
cent work on the mine near Eu-
dora, has increased the prospects
Of the Milwaukee building into
Flathead at an early date. The
mine near Eudora is owned by
the Amalgamated Copper Co.,
and the stockholders of the Am
algamated and the Milwaukee
are so closely allied as to make
both corporations almost identi-
cal and this fact leads a good
many to think that should the
mine turn out as it now gives
promise Of doing, that the COM
pany would prefer to ship the
ore on a railroad in which the
owners are also directly inter-
ested. This relationship points
strongly to the fact that the
Milwaukee is likely to be the
first road to throw dirt on the
Flathead after all. There is
strong talk in Missoula that the
Milwaukee will be the first to
build this way, and all this talk
may have some foundation.
A glance at a map will disclose
that the line would run almost
due north from Missoula, should
it follow the route which it is
said has already been prospected,
that is. via Grant creek, the
Jocko river and St. Mary's lake,
the Mission valley east
of St. 1gnatius, and thence di-
rectly north to Roman and Flat
head lake. To reach Eudora and,
the mine it is said that the road
could easily bridge the lake to
Idlewild island and from there to
the west shore of the lake, at
which point there is a fine grade
on to Big Arm, Eudora and the
mine. Such a route would be
inexpensive, as the grades could
easily be made and no difficult
feats would have to
be undertaken. There would be
no expensive tunnels, and be-
sides, the road would penetrate
all the profitable sections of the
reservation.
This route would be in close
proximity to the great timber re-
sources of the valley; would run
through the best agri-
cultural sections: and at the same
time would be a direct route from
Missoula northward to the mine
and on to the Canadian coal fields
which all the roads are so anX-
lous to touch.
The probabilities are that
should the Milwaukee show signs
IF activity in this respect that
the Northern Pacific would read +
ly find the money necessary to
their branch line from
Dixon northward and would not .
De slow in putting a force Of !
at the work. Such
;hings have been known to hap
zen. ..
There is no question but the
