BROWNING.

Browning, Mont. is an Indian
agency town. There dwell the Black
feet, cousins to the Sioux, but their
hereditary enemies.
To the west of the town rises tnat
chaos of mountains into which the
Rockies break as they near the Ca
madam border. and which is now set
apart as Glacier National Park: Here
the BIackfeet have their fishing
streams, and to these solitudes they
repair for big game hunting.
But Browning is on the plains. For
a thousand miles to the east of 1T IS
the unbroken prairie. Here former
ly roams such buffalo herds as
would require days, in passing. BY
the door of Browning passes the OLD
Whiskey trail, an Indian roadway
which follows theScontinental divide
from Alaska to TERRA del FueGo and
is reputed to be the longest road In
the world.

Great White Father, all belonging TO

certainty from shore from the deck

Admiral Fiske fled his application
for a patent April 12. 1912, and the
patent was issued July 16. 1912. He
describes his inyention as certain
new and useful improvement In
methods Of, and apparatus for. de-
livering submarine torpedoes from
airships."
The following is Admiral Fiske's
specification, of, his torpedo boat:

p,ttshnrp to Florida Highway.

The idea is suggested that the coun-
Iry can soon have a fine highway
from Pittshurg to Florida. 1t may pc
a long time before it reaches al the
way to Florida. but 1t need not be
long before there is a fine highway
from Clarksburg to Pittsburg Har-
rison county has a permanent high
way started in that direction and 1t
need not take long to complete 1t to
the Marion county line. The latter
county's great road building move
ment will doubtless take, the good
road from Harrison county TO the
Monongalia county line, and the fol-
lowing taken from the Fairchance.
Pa, News describes an encouraging
situation on that end:
"The building OF modern roads con-
tinues through West Virginia at a
pace never before equalled in the
states history Morgan and Union
districts of Monongahela county viii
vote July 81 for the. issue of Sl70.0oO
bonds to put down fine highway from
Morgantown to the Pennsyl line,
which will be a prominent link in the
chain of good roads running north
and south through West Virginia.
The Monon gahela road will be com
pleted by the fall If the people vote
to issue the bonds, which they VIII
no doubt do"
The above is taken from the PITTS
burgh Dispatch of July 9. This bond
issue will be issued TO construct a road
from Morgantown to the Pennsylvania
state line near Springhill Furnace,
which is eight miles south of Fair
chance via Haydentown ,and nine
miles via. Smithfield.
Inasmuch as Georges township has
a good waterbound macadam road to
the Smithfield. Sproul road, and has
a brick road planned from Smithfield
to Ruble's Mill, the unimproved
stretches southwark will soon be from
Ruble's Mill to Smithfield, about four
miles. and from Samuel Moser's to
Smithfield, about two miles.
Northward we have the brick road
built by the county from Wynn to the
sycamore tree; and the state last
week began reconstructing the macad-
am from the sycamore tree to Union
town. This leaves us with bad con-
nection from the bank to Wynn, where
the brick road now ends. This con-
nection should be made. but we. as a
borough are not financially able to
do so. The frontage-for large part

Let it not be forgotten that the n,
nancial institutions of the on1leu
states weathered last year the Worsl
economic cyclone in history under the
old national banking system and pc
fore banking reform was estabiisheo.
TO supplement resources available IN
previous crises there was only the
emergency currency act, product OF
the practical genius of the late Sen
ator Nelson Wilmarth Aldrich for dis-
charging the chief task of government
which is to make the institutions OF a
country work. says the New York sun
Thanks also to the practical sagac-
ity of Senator Aldrich and the inde,
fatigable industry with which he paved
the way for banking and currency re-
form, the Aldrich-yreeland act can
now be allowed to lapse; but the hom.
age paid to the act by the present
secretary of the treasury in Demo
cratic administration is fitting COM
mentary on the political obloquy en-
countered by Senator Aldrich in the
later years of his life because of the
business conduct of government in ac-
cordance with the needs and nature
of business for which he had so long
commended.

the Indians.
In the summer Browning is most
populous. Then the red men come III
from their ranches and camps and
pitch their lodges in the circle about
the town. Then does the family
group itself about the open fire In
each lodge and cook its maize and
venison. Then does the native
dwelling hide the buildings of tho
agency and the whole scene take on
the look 1T bore when first the trap
pers came in those days before Custer
rode past here to his death.
And then are the sun dances cele-
brated. The medicine man performs
the rather remarkable feat of stand
ing for hours and gazing fxedly into
the very face of the sun and making
his medicine for the protection OF
his people. The whole tribe, decked
as on no other occasion In its, war
paint and feathers, awaits the selec-
ton of a woman as a sacrifice to the
sun. Since the establishment OF the
agency no worse fate awaits this
woman than she is condemned to
marry none but cripple.
with wferd incantations the sacri-
fee is made. while the tom toms
beat Enthusiastically. and the braves
dance enormously in huge circle
about them.
When night comes the tourist who
has thus seen the Indian in his ma
tive rites may dance the fox trot with
the belle of the tribe. clad in the
habilaments OF civilization, at the
fashionable hotel which stands at
the entrance of Glacier Park nearby.

II carry out my method preferably
in the following way by the following
means: The torpedo A, which may

plane. A strap D connected at one
end to the ship passes below the tor
pedo, and is provided at its other enc
with a ring received upon piyotes

which normally engages the latch E.

THE advantage of approaching

sible with present guns to hit an
object swiftly falling from height.
owing to the rapid resulting change
in range and consequent elevation OF
the guns. ~
The advantage Of proceeding to
the enemy is to increase the chances
OF the torpedo getting home and
also to enable the .airship to carry
torpedoes of lighter weight. since
torpedoes designed for long ranges
are necessarily much. heavier than
those Intended for short ranges. A
number of swift ]. aeroplanes. each
carrying light torpedo effective at
1850 yards, might be even more
than a large machine
specially built to transport a torpedo
effective at 5000 yards"
Admiral Fiske has taken out nifty
seven patents already and has three
more pending. In 1890 he invented
what has come to be known as the
Sir Percy, Scott method OF pointing
guns on shipboard, and in. 1904 he
invented the turret range finder.

becomes broken it can be slipped out
and a new one sprung into place. All
that is necessary is supply of these
specially designed ribs and the cor
responding sliding attachment to
hold them in place. A gust of wind
might turn your umbrella inside out;
yet with this device you could repair
it in five minutes.

much oil could occur in them and still
not leak out at the surface and form
