PIONEER FARMER
 GETS TITLE

II. D. Clark, pioneer rancher of the skagway district. has received word trom the Juneau land office that he will receive title in fee simple to his homestead lands To- cated on the northwest side of Skagway river consisting Of forty four acres.
 MT. Clark located on the land in 1899. over sixteen years ago and has continued, to reside there since the date of first entry. The legal procedure for getting full titld from the government has been hanging fire for several years and the news of his receiving title is gratifying to not only to himself but to others in this district who are now home stealing.
 Al first 1t was Mir. Clarks h. tentiou to procure title to the land bv the use of additional soldiers script, which he purchased and hold until 1912. This plan was abandoned and Mi. Clark decided to get title to the land as an original home stead. The land has been sur veyed 6 number of times and each time some difficulty presented It. self owing to the improper survey or lack of those in charge to get the records on file.
 The homestead plot was located before the passage of the U. S Act requiring the lines of a home stead to belocated along the Car dinal lines and were not located along cardinal directions which has caused considerable difficulty with the laLd office in granting the title.
 During his uocupany Mir. Clark has erected a suitable dwelling house which has compared with any In this section of the country. Two greenhouses have been erected, barns and chicken houses and he has cleared practically all of the land for farming purposes, w. L. Lewis, special agent, in pre- senting the case of MT. Clark has informed the government, "It may be noted that he ia Q pioneer, whose | experiments have been in the main successful; and they are of no in- considerable public value, as demonstrating the agricultural pos sib1itIes Of the location. A slight realization O. the many problems to be met and solved in the origi- nal in Q pioneering proposition of this kind, In a new and agriculturai' ly unchartered country. will con vince that 1t requires personal char acterls1ics of a high order to achieve success. And the fact that man has demonstrated such sue ,ess and blazed he wtay for his fel- :ows, marks him as Q useful and IimEcrLant citizen. entitled to every courtesy that the government can extend to him under the laws" TNe homestead of MT. Clark Is joined by that of Mir. seeman, who Is contemplating proving up on his nlacp Tn the near future. Ar. Clarks farm has been the interest ing suot to show tourists and tray elers for several years.

CONFEDERATE REUNION AT
BIRMINGHAM, ALA, MAY 1919

|, Birmingham, Ala, April 27.-When
the remnant of the gallant confeder-
ate army marches in review before
General Bennett Young and his staff
at the reunion May IT, IS, and 10, it is
expected that 100000 enthusiastic
southerners will join in the applause.
! For this giant number of persons is
! expected to watch the veterans as
they are conveyed through the streets
during the reunion. When the reunion
was held in Birmingham in 1908, the
parade was cheered by 100000 on
lockers. lnasmuch as the indications
point to greater number of veterans
being preseht, and inasmuch as great
er interest is being indicated in other
ways, it is assumed that conservative
estimate for observers is 100000
The committee of business men in
charge of the plans for the reunion are
giving close attention to the parade
details. The parade is always a great
feature at reunions and the march at
the forthcoming reunion is expected
to be no exception. On the other hand
it is confidently believed that all pa
rade records will be smashed this year. |
1t is contemplated that all veterans
will be provided with seats on auto
mobile trucks or in automobiles thus
eXempting the heroes from the fatigue |
incident to long march. The com
mittee has taken up the matter of
with enthusiasm and
It is believed that provision will be
made for every veteran to ride during

ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVE TRIED
nIIT

The question whether electric pro
pulsion would be economical, and
in other ways desirable, on long
stretches of trunk railroad lines, has
been until quite recently a strictly
academic proposition. The electriti-
cation of 440 miles of the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul railroad, over
the Continental divide division, n
Montana, has now been completed,
and the experience there obtained,
under ideal "try-out" conditions, is
interesting to the travelling public
as well as to trunk line railway man
ayers. Under quite severe winter
conditions the electric locomotives
have, in the opinion of experts, fu!- |
filed all expectations. 1t is declared |
that it has been demonstrated, in the |
case of this mountain railroad, that |
one electric locomotive takes the
place of four ordinary steam locomo-
tiyes. 1t is only fair to say that
he term "ordinary" as here used is
in its meaning, as only the
most powerful and largest steam loco
motives could handle the traffic over
mountain grades. But it would surely
,e fair to assume that one electric
locomotive can at least do the work
If two large, high-grade steam-driven
machines. under these conditions,
even with this modification of claims |
made for the electric tractor, the
ayman can measurably appreciate its
dvantages. - Rochester Democrat !

Ash Wednesday UsheFs In Most Impress
SiVe Period For Catholics.

With the Carnival Festivities
with all its gaity ended, ash
| Wednesday ushered in the Lenten
peroid and the forty days fast
preceding Easter, recognized
and observed by all the Catholic
churches of Christendom. In the
different Catholic churches Of
this parish, this important retig-
iOus requirements imposed on all
the faithful were very carefully
carried out.
Ash Wednesday had its origin
in the Catholic church and has
an hon0red place in the customs
of that church. The rituals of the
latter church in celebrating this
day are varied and imbued with
particular spiritual significance.
In the early ages of the church
ash Wednesday rituals tarmina-
ted with a penitential procession
bat this practice now has become
obsolete.
The archdiocese Of New Or
leans has the same Lenten regu-
lations as were accorded by the
indult of Leo XIII on Angus l3, !
1887, and renewed for ten years |
by Plus X on March 15, 1908.
LentIs binding on all the faith
ful who are q years old an5
over unless they are excused for
some good cause or are dispensed :
from it, One full meal daily only ,
IS allowed Sunday excepted, bull
a slight meal, d sort Of collation., |
is permitted.
The church exempts from fast
ing all those under 21 years. the
sick and weak, women nursing
children and those engaged in
hard labor. Milk, butter, eggs
and cheese are permissible every
day in Lent and in the morning
One may take tea, coffee or thin
chocolate with bread thinly cut.
