The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1922-08-03

To say that the second annual
stampede was success would be put
ting it mildly indeed. 1t was more
than a success-it was a living ex-
ample of what enthusiasm, co-opera-
tion and punch will do. 1t was dis
play of the solidifed Wolf Point spirit
an exhibition without peer in
roundup and stampede circles.
The credit for the success of the
undertaking belongs to the entire
community practically everybody
contributed something, time, money,
brains, exhibits, and best of all the
supporting spirit that gets things.
The Officers
To the officers and members of the
various committees who gave un-
sparingly of their time and knowledge
goes the major portion of the credit.
President C. ]. Severson, Vice
president Andy Wigtill, Treasurer O..
T. Stennes and Secretary 0. G. john
son had charge Of the business man
agement and they proved themselves
worthy fnanciers. After erecting
the big grandstand, building the new
race track, fencing the entire grounds
and making many other minor inn
provements and defraying all Incl
dental expenses, there is but slight
deficit. This puts the permanent or
ganization in way to handle future
stampedes on even larger scale
than this year.
The Committees
Steve Marmon and Hank Cusker
comprised the stock committee and
they. did a wonderful piece of work
in selecting and gathering in stock
for the show, and as Sid Vollin said:
"They were wild as rabbits but maybe
not quits so fast"
The arena committee, Ray Mitchell
and VIM. Knorr, were on the job
early and late. Mr. Mitchell is one
of the best officials that ever set foot
in ali arena and to his efficient work
is due the smoothness and well timed
appearance of the many events.
Lloyd Montgomery and L. M.
Clayton did the work on the agri-
cultural exhibit committee. The dis
play they gathered and arranged was
credit to the county and the grow
ers. Grains, grasses and vegetables
were on exhibition and it was an ex-
hibit that brought expressions of
wonder and delight from visitors.
Chris Sorenson was in charge of
the concession privileges and the re-
turns to the committee from this
source prove that more efficient man
agement would have been difficult to
find.
The advertising was in the hands
of c. J. Severson and Andy Wigtil
and the daily attendance was testi-
monial to their efficiency in placing
the stampede before the public.

ed each evening.

Questions and Reports

Candidly Mr. Private Citizen and Taxpayer, what
would you think of a county treasurer who would pay
county warrants out of their regular registered order
favorng certain individuals and letting others wait in
allow him to do it?
Did anybody ever hear of common ordinary citizen
having interest money! which he owed and had paid long
after delinquency refunded to him? Now don't laugh
but, say did anybody ever hear of such thing?
Over in the east end of the county they tell about

MRS. KOLTSKI MOTTO BLAME

Orders She Gave Him.

Judge Oscar Hallam, in his address
before the South Dakota Bar associa-

Il recall a case of assault and bat
terry, against the Koltski family, and
in the course of the examination it
developed that the Koltski family dog

ski, when on the stand. was asked If
she didn't instigate the activities of
the dog. She insisted that she did not.
The attorney said; Didn't you say,
"Sic EN-, Caesar?" for that was the
dogs name. She said, No, l did not
THE attorney said. You said some
thing to the dogT
"She replied: We'll, what If I did?

HAS DISCOVERED NEW FORCE
Londoner Gives interesting Descrip-
ton of Manner in Which He Made
Important Find.

A simple carbon rod has been dis
covered by A. Z. Baines, a leading gal
vanometrist of London, which If held
in the hands five minutes will recharge
the human system with nerve energy
that lasts u hours. He says it is
nothing new, but, on the contrary, was
known to the ancient Egyptians. He
said the secret of it was lost many
centuries ago. Mr.. Baines said that
years ago while he was standing in the
British museum before 4 painted lime
stone sculpture of Kharfra, an Egyp-
tian king of the fourth dynasty, who
built the second of the great pyramids
of Gizeh, he noticed the figure was
holding two small rods shaped some
thing like the grip on a bicycle. There
after he began series of long ex-
periments to discover the substance
which the king held, but he failed in
his search until one day when he was
trying to improve the microphone, for
which he prepared several carbon pen
ellis which had been hardened by
special process of his own. He said
that quite accidentally he touched one
Of these carbon pencils and was sur
prised to find that his galyanic detiec-
ton swung from positive to negative
This led TO further experiments, and
he finally found that the ordinary arc
carbon, when hardened by his process,
gave out a force which could not be
distinguished from nerve force. The
bars are about six inches long and are
capped at the ends with celluIoid. Mr..
Baines asserted the carbon rods have
been of great aid in treating cases Of
nervous breakdown, deafness, anemia
and many other complaints. He de
clared he did not know what the new
force was.

on his knowledge by eliminating the
