new COUNTY VOTED AT SlDlMS:
BY CANYON ROAD OPPONENTS
Sun River Division Endorsed by Communities at
Northwest Corner Of Cascade. and Dan
Mckay Ordered Hired to Carve It,

Much dissatisfaction was exp1 essed by
farmers who are assessed at the rate
Of $50 per. acre on their farm lands.
A number of others were opposed to
the building Of the Wolf Creek
Canyon road.
The canyon road matter was the de-
Gliding factor in causing the meeting
to 60 on record in favor of the forma-
ton Of Sun River county, as it was
matter of common knowledge that
the commercial clubs of both Great
Falls and Helena favor the building
of the road and the new county Of
Dearborn would also be in favor of the
proposition. Sun River county was
then the logical proposition, as the
people Of Sun River, Fort Shaw,
Simms. Rubbing, Augusta and Gilman
would not be interested in expending
thousands of dollars on tourist road
at this time.
A big public meeting will probably be
held sometime during the coming week.

Hidden Powder Blast
Injuries Two Miners

Special to The Tribune.
Havre, Sept. 26.-When second
blast of powder Of which they knew
nothing, exploded in the Station coal
mine, Orville Lucas, farmer, re-
ceived injuries that may lose him the
sight of an eye, and Arthur Station, of
Havre, was burned about the face.
One Of the workmen planted a
charge of blasting powder in the mine
Wednesday night when he quit work
for the day and did not notify the
other workmen. Lucas and Station en-
tered the mine next morning and plant
ed another charge to loosen the coal.
As soon as the blast was heard they
re- entered, not knowing Of the other
charge Of powder. 1t is supposed that
flame of coal gas ignited the second
charge, which exploded without warn
ing at the feet Of the two men.

proof are found in Mr.. Jones' little zoo.
He has, for example, eight lions, and
they are the latest, sickest- looking
lions in the world. At least, it is hard
to imagine any fatter or sicker. Two
Of these lions were bred and raised
by Mr.. Jones and have never known
any world except their cage. Mr.. Jones
employs a professional trainer to put
the lions through their tricks, but
upon special occasions he himself en-
ters the cage with them. Unlike any
other trained animal master, you can
see he carries no weapon, mot even a
whip, and yet his lions 90 through
their PAGES with perfect docility.
On one occasion one of the lions
uttered a few snarls but Mr.. Jones
explained that he had recently been
deprived Of his mate for a time and
was therefore in bad humor. One
of the tricks performed consisted in
making all Of the lions stand on row
of high stools, each one little higher
than the one behind it. Mr.. Jones
climbed to the highest stool and sat
down on the lions back.
Can a Lion Be Tanned?
Animal trainers will tell you that a
lion is never really tanned, that nothing
but fear keeps him in subsection, and
that sooner or later every hon rebels
against his trainer and is kept in con-
troll only by physical violence. Mr..
Jones, who has been going into the
lions den as unarmed as was Daniel,
for 90 years, seems to be living DEM
onstration that some lions are really
tame.
In his work about the zoo Mr.. Jones
wears q swallow tail coat and high
silk hat. It has been suggested by
some that the lions are completely
overawed by his dignity.
A more remarkable proof of Mr..
Jones influence over animals is the
way they respond to his voice. He ut
ters a strange call and seals scram-
Bile out Of the water at his feet, and
great peicans come Tapping down TO
him. He does not feed them anything
either. They seemingly come merely
to acknowledge his greeting and they
appear to take real pleasure in his
presence. An ourang- outang leaps
'nto his arms like happy child when
10 calls to it, and he pats tiger on
the head as you would house cat.
Mr.. Jones is great admirer OF
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. and has
named his ZOO Longfellow Gardens in
memory Of the poet. Their proximity
10 Minnehaha Falls makes the name
especially appropriate. A statue OF
I ongfellow in heroic size ornaments
the gardens. and was unveiled with ap-
nropriate ceremonies. The house m
which Mr.. Jones lives is replica OF
the Iongfellow house. and contains
collection of things owned and used by
Longfellow.
All in all, this is most unusual
ZOO, for it is no mere meaningless col
lection Of animals. but the expression
Of q human personality.

wardens. They evidently consid-
cred their office as political sine
cures. Jake DeHart's deputies may
have rendered some political SER
vices but he made them attend to
the business of the department al
so. In the last year Of Jake De-
Harris service as game warden
52,751 resident licenses were sold.
Up to the present moment only
about $4,000 have been sold. One
will hardly believe that fishing and
hunting are less common this year
than last. In fact twenty thousand
men are idle this year that were at
work last year, and it is natural to
expect that with rod and gun they
might seek mess of trout or ducks
to help out the kitchen larder when
they had nothing else to do. Jack
rabbits, bear and other eatable game
is plentiful this year. Yet the game
warden's department in spite Of its
higher fees is short Of money, a
thing unknown under the previous
administration, and it will be nee
essary to cut off some $4,000 in
salaries and expenses to avoid a
deficit. The surplus has disap-
peared. Sad news that to the Re-
publican politicians. But evidently
they have been loafing on the job.
No work no pay. Isn't it just aw-
full. ............. ........

Yet while he advocated thrift in his picturesque and

He was a statesman of the first order. No man did
more than he secure the independence of the colonies,
nor to provide them with workable plan of govern
ment. AS the representative of the United States in
France he established high degree Of respect for Am
erican diplomacy and set a high standard for all sub
sequent diplomats.
With the exception of Lincoln he was the greatest self
made man of modern times He presented the rare
ample of a sef-educatd man whose scholarship was
ripe well rounded and free from fads and crochets,
while his manners and address were such as 10 make

A striking evidence of the weakness of the police sys-

what was, which made these precautions necessary.
Some anonymous warnings, perhaps, from an I'M
known person. practical joke, possibly, set the whole
detective and police machinery Of New York into
culver of excitement and panic.
Nothing could forcibly illustrate the uncertainty
with which the officers move their lack of information as
to what going the underworld, their hep less

which they stampeded by the hint of bombs

But it will meet general public approval If there is
any special why this country should maintain
larger army the public does not know it, and if the mill
