At the regular meeting of the
Elks lodge last night quite a jolli-
tication took place, when COM
mittee, consisting of z. j. Han
cock, w. A. Keelor, and Oscar
Dumont. was given the privilege
of tremendously burning $3.50
worth of bonds, the indebtedness
of the order to the amount of this
sum having been paid off within
the past year.
The Elks Club association elected
new officers. they being the same
men as are now in office in the reg
ular order.
Another interesting feature which
occurred at the meeting of Tuesday
night was the presentation of ar
elk tooth to John Mollard, who
Just finished his term as exalted
ruler. The presentation was made
by Geo. + McClelland in his usua
interesting manner, and was a gift
from twelve friends of Mr.. Mol.
lard, who are members of the

and has this inscription engraved
on the charm: Presented to John

TRAIN SERVICE
RESU NED HERE
First Mail Since Thursday
Came into Idaho Springs
Sunday Morning; Trains Now
Running on Schedule Time;
No Telephone Service Yet
with Denver.

The Colorado & Southern Rail-
way company gave very quick train
service after the big snow storm,
and while it was believed it would
be several days before train could
come thru from Denver, the time
was very much shorter.
The last train from Denver came
up on Thursday night, and went
back Friday morning, and in the
storm, it seemed doubtful if the
train could reach Denver. 1t did,
however, and was only few hours
later than usual
On Saturday evening about 7:30
o'clock, the train whistle, which
was very welcome sound, attract
ed the ears of the residents of the
city, and by the time the train
reached the depot, the platform
was pretty well filed with specta-
tors. This proved to be three
engines, the front one having a
snow plow, a coal car and a ca
boose, This broke the track, aAd
paved the way for the passenger
train which arrived in Idaho
Springs on Sunday morning forty
minutes later than schedule time.
There were number of passen.
gers on the train, including six
preachers, and many of the pas
sengers had been stalled away
from home on account of the heavy
snow and were very glad to get
back. Since that time the trains
have been running both ways, and
today the morning train was on
time.
1t surely seems good to be able
to get the mail regularly again,
and feel that one is not isolated
from the world. '
The telephone company has been
working diligently to get the lines
in shape, but storm like the last
one plays havoc with telephone
lines and the men have not yet
been able to get all of them fixed.
II is still useless to try to get
Denver, as the lines have not all
been repaired between here and
there. The main trouble seems to
be between Golden and Denver.
aud the linsmen are now working
on this line. hoping to have the
trouble fixed either today or to-
morrow. They are doing the best
they can under the circumstances,
and have all their men out work
ing on lines in various places, as
the lines were out in every COM

steamer from Nome to Seattle is reported to have brought 1000 car casses of reindeer, which average about 150 pounds each. Next year 1t is planneds to make regular ship ments on a considerably larger scale and with the rapid increase of the herds, shipments will continue to grow until reindeer meat from Al aska becomes recognized article of food throughout the country.
 Reindeer live on the treeless Are tic plains, where in summer they feed mainly on the abundant vege- tation which the short Arctic sum- mer produces, and in winter eat the lichen, commonly called reindeer moss, which covers great areas Of tundras, cover many millions of acres round the Boring Sea and Arctic coast of Alaska. The introduction of reindeer into Alaska has indicated that these arctic plains, which hither- to were considered desert wastes are really valuable grazing lands which will be sourcs> of new sup ply to meet the growing demands.
 In this connection, it is interest ing to know that the Canadian Gov. ernment last June leased great area of land in extreme northern Canada to Stefansson, the Arctic ex plorer, for the purpose of being stocked with reindeer The Cana dian Government is taking an active interest in the development of this novel industry.
