Many will wonder where this new

continuance of the Phillips postotfice
the people living some distance have
petitioned the Fostotlice Department
at Washington, d c., for an office,
and the matter has been finally settled.
The office will be called Regina, and
the first letter was sent last week to
the new office. There is very large

A sudden idea hit Wallingford, and
the frowning crease that had been

appeared as if by magic. He chuckled,
his broad chest heaving and his big
shoulders shaking, his eyes closing and
his round, pink face wreathing itself
in a smile, which, as an evidence OF
friendly understanding, the Dougal-

"You must have had lot of eXpe-

Vienna, July 27.-The first encoun-
ter Of the threatened war between
Austria and Servia already has occur
red, according to a rumor from Semlin
that reached Vienna. The battle is
said to have taken place near Semen
dria on the Danube, twenty-four miles
southeast of Belgrade, but no details
of the engagement were contained in
the message.
The prospect of war is not regarded
| here as child's play. The Servians
put 100000 men into the field during
the Balkan wars. Both officers and
men are passionately patriotic.
1t is expected that Servia will at
tempt to hold the front along the
Danube and the Drina with only a
weak force, while the greater part Of
the army will be concentrated in the
central district, probably near Nish Or
Kraguyevetz, and another strong
force in Novipazar, which will be
destined for offensive operations
against Bosnia.
| No declaration of war has been is
sued and it is believed that none will
be, since Servia never subscribed to
The Hague convention. The sending
of his passports to the Servian minis
ter, M. Jovanovitch, by the Austrian
foreign office, however, is deemed
equivalent to declaration of war. This
action was taken. M. Jovanovitch
will leave Immediately. In his alb
sence the Russian ambassador will
take charge of Servian interests.
Patriotic Demonstra tions.
There were patriotic demonstra-
tions, although heavy rain was fall
ing. Great crowds gathered in front
of the war office and cheered the Off
GERS who appeared. Professions with
flags flying filled the streets.
A general mobilization in Montene-
gro is reported. Proclamations have
been posted ordering partial mobiliza-
ton.
Italy has informed Austria that in
event of armed conflict with Servia
she will adopt a friendly attitude in
the triple alliance.
The Neue Freie Presse says the
minister of finance will raise $50. 0OO,.
600 for the government and adds that
negotiations between the powers for
the localization of the conflict will
continue. In diplomatic circles there
is feeling of optimism that these ne
gotiations will be successful and it
was said by one diplomat that 'France
has no intention to expose herself too

This automobile, valued at $1,400,
will be given for the best five sheaves
of wheat and the best bushel of wheat
grown in Montana in the year 1914
and exhibited at the state fair. The
Cartercar, the car with the gearless
transmission, is considered the ideal
plicity of operation and reliability to
cover ground over all sorts of roads,
whether they be hilly, sandy or
muddy.
This huge offer by the state fair Is
recognition of Montana's great
prominence as the premier wheat
country of the world. Encouraged by
the first prizes awarded at the nation
all grain shows, the fair management
is influencing the farmers to prepare
early for their entries to the state
fair and is urging that the finest grain
be sent to the state. fair, from which
exposition they will be taken next
year by the Panama-Pacifc EXPOSE
tion commission to the International
Exposition at San Francisco.
The conditions for entrance for the
Cartercar are simple. Five sheaves
of wheat and one bushel of the
threshed grain are required, both to
come from the same field and to be
of the same variety. There are no
restrictions as to the variety, any
| type of wheat being eligible. The
winning of this prize will not only
| bring renown to the individual grow
er, but it will advertise his particular
county all over the country as being
the section where the finest wheat
can be grown. The entries close on
Sept 70, the award to be made dur
ing the week of the fair. Both the
contesting wheat and the prize auto
mobile will be on exhibition every
day of the fair, from the 21st to 26th
Of September.
