BIG WHEAT YIELD EXPECTED
Increase Acreage Indicated In Many
Sections-Bindcrs Begin Work
In Several Counties.

Helena.--Reports from many points
along the route of the Great Northern
railway show that winter wheat is be-
ing harvested in many sections OF
Montana. Station agents who send
weekly report to headquarters say
that the grain yield will be. greater
this year as there is a larger acre
age and an expected larger yield
than there was in 1914.
At most places the winter wheat
has headed out and is ready for cut
ting. The binder is already at work
in many counties. From Wolf Point
comes the news that wheat is going
30 to 40 bushels per acre and at
Cushman the claim is made that
wheat will run 80 to As bushels to
the acre.
The rains have been beneficial at
most places. While it is true it has
effected the hay and alfalfa crops
in number of points, no places of
agricultural consequence have re-
ported grain damages. At Tampico
and Chinook, rye is being harvested
with splendid prospects.

WEEDS In a Plaster Suit.

Miss Mary Elizabeth Seraner came
all the way to Saline county from
Fayetteville, o., to become the bride
Of Francis de Sales Schneider, a
young farmer near Saline, and even
then came near losing out for a delay
at least, but she was equal to the
occasion and is now Schneider's
bride, says a Saline (Kan.) dispatch
to the Kansas City Journal.
The promised delay in the nuptial
affairs of the young couple was
caused by Schneider getting into q
runaway accident and sustaining a
broken leg, fractured ribs and bruises
all over his body, and his sweetheart
found him bound in plaster of paris
casts 30 tight he could not move.
The situation was discussed, the
young lady hooked up the favorite
horse to buggy and came to Saline,
secured the marriage license, engaged
the preacher and returned to the
farm.

Logan.-The Northern Pacific pas
senger which runs between Whitehall
and Alder, while running at the re-

of the engine left the track first and
turned over and the rest of the train,
composed Of one combination car and
two coaches, followed the tender, all
leaving the track, but remaining up
right. Owing to the marshy condition
of the land, the trucks of the cars
were almost buried in the ground.

RISKS LIFE TO SEE DISPLAY.
Robert Woodward Throws Piece of
Wire Across Power Line Which
Carries 46,2OO Volts.

Anaconda.-In order to see the
electrical display that would follow
the contact of the two wires, Robert
Woodward threw a piece of wire at
the power line from the Madison river
dam at Butte, which carries 1920
volts. This resulted in an arc being
formed and the flash set fire to the
clothing of Woodward, who was only
few feet from the power line. Wood
ward was seriously burned before his
nephews, who were accompanying
him on his walk, were able to put out
the fire.
The accident occurred about 10
miles west of Renova. One of the
power wire insulators came loose
from the steel tower, allowing the
wire to hang toward the ground.
Woodward had picked up piece of
wire and when he saw the hanging
wire he threw the wire at the power
line. He was severely burned about
the body and also about the face.

PLAY NEVER REAL triumph"
Sheridan Knowles Widely Known
Drama of "virginius" Is Open
to Criticism.

James Sheridan Knowles, an Irish
schoolmaster, who had also been an
actor, whose father was first cousin
to Richard Brinsley Sheridan, brought
to Macready tragedy called "V1r-
ginius," widely proclaimed as a re-
turn to truth and to nature as against
artificialities of the times
"Virginius" is an admirable exam
pie of the ordinary bourgeois drama,
a bourgeois drama applied, unfortu-
nately, to Roman tragedy. Everyone
knows, of course, the story of the SOL
der Virginius, who killed his daugh-
ter rather than she should fall into
the hands of Appius.
When Shakespeare dealt with Ro-
man plays he made, it is true, his
characters Englishmen, but he made
them Of heroic mold. Brutus and
Julius Caesar, Mark Anthony and the
rest, are certainly not commonplace,
even though one can hardly describe
them as accurately drawn in accord
ance with their Latin types.
But of all the characters of Sheri-
dan Knowles play it can safely be
said that they are just mediocre, bour-
geois, commonplace Englishmen and
Englishwomen of the times.
Virginius, for instance, is an excel
lent father Of the middle class, whom
we could imagine going down to his
city office every day and returning to
the suburbs in the evening. Virginia,
the lovely heroine, is a simpering
schoolgirl virtuous idiot.
If this is what a return to nature
meant, 1t must be confessed that 1t
is kind of nature that we do not
want perpetuated.-Exc

up In the words of small boy, who
ventured this:
Anyway, it's only roughnecks who
