Manhattan and Three Forks
have contributed $4,000 to the
fund being raised to repair the
schOOlbOuse in the towns hit by
the recent earthquake, accord
ing to reports received this
morning by Chas. yandenhOOk,
county executive committeeman
for the statewide drive. Of this
amount Manhattan raised $2.5OO
and Three Forks $500.
This is considered an exceptionally

were in the center Of the disturbance
and consequently suffered most heav-
lily. It is hoped that other portions
of the county which escaped with lit
tie or no damage will do as well.
Up to GialIatin County.
"Gallatin county must contribute
literally to the fund with which to
place her school houses in condition
for use this fall and to repair the
damage done by the recent earth
quake" said Chas. VandenhoOk, coun-

morning.

Manhattan and Three Forks, de

Dayton, Tenn, Monday, July
27.-WiIliam Jennings Bryan,
who many years ago as "the boy
orator of the Platte" with his
Cross of Gold speech won DerE-
Ocratic presidential nomination
and a lasting place before the
American public, is dead.
The end came yesterday afternoon
while the "Commoner" was sleeping
in the house of Richard Rogers, which
had been assigned to him during his
stay here, when he came for the
Scopes trial. DR.. w. F. ThOmasOn
and DR.. A. c. Broyles, who examined
the body, stated death was caused by
q hemorrhage of the brain, resulting
in apoplexy. He was IS years old.
James Mccartney, family chalffeur,
was sent by Mrs. Bryan at 4:3O p. m,
to wake her husband. Mccartney
shook Mr.. Bryan twice in an attempt
to arouse him and then noticed he
was not breathing. Rushing to the
home of A. B. Andrews, a neighbor,
the chauffeur called for physicians,
who reached the home within a few
minutes. After an examination the
doctors said Mr.. Bryan probably had
been dead 30 or 40 minutes, before
they arrived.
Appeared in Good Health.
The "Commener" had been living
under a strenuous program since he
came here three weeks ago to assist
in the prosecution of John T. Scopes,
found guilty Of violating Tennessee's
anti-evolution law. He appeared IN
excellent health, however, and was
planning to launch a great campaign
this week in behalf Of fundamental
ism.
Mrs. Bryan, who has been an IN
valid a number of years, bravely
stood the shock Of her husbands un-
expected death. She Immediately took
charge Of funeral arrangements anC
received a few Of the hundreds o.
persons who called at the residence
to express sympathy.
Before he went to sleep, Mr.. Bryan
autographed two books for Judge JohI
T. Reulston, who presided at thr
Scopes trial. The books were 'Thr
Seven Questions IN Dispute" and "Il

SCOURED

FORBOZEMAN SHOW
More Untamed Cayuses Secured
for 1925 Roundup Than Ever
Took Part in Wild West Exhi-
bitiOn Here Before
Noted Buckaroos Will Pit Their
Skill Against These bad
Ones" Every Day

Manager Mullen of the BOze-
man Roundup has gathered up a
string Of bad horses such as was
never seen in a wild west show
in BOzeman before. He has comb
ed the COW country thoroughly
and has Investigated stories of
wild horses in many cOmmuni-
ties, purchasing the animals If
the yarns were substantiated.
But in the list that is already here
and now in the corrals or ranges
ready for the opening Of the show,
viii be found some that are known
to the followers Of the game for
years, as well as many new ones that
have just been discovered.
Two New Ones
Il think 'Glittering Glory and
Prison Bar are among the best
horses we have this year." said the
arena director. He calls them the
''best,' while the spectators refer to
them as the worst" fer they are
the most unmanageable animals that
can be found on a range. Tanning
them, or trying to tame them, is the
chief pleasure Of the cowboy.
Both OF the animals mentioned are
"sunfishers," and have been bought
this year to round OF a string Of
the best or worst, as the people
choose to call Their, that have ever
been seen in any roundup or wild
west show.
Among some of the other horses
that have regulations and which are
familiar to many Of the people Of
the west and in and around Gallatin
county are: Battle Mountain, rough
bucker; Filtration, spinner; Wildfire,
just q bad horse; MOonshine, getting
worse every year; Lightnin', Whiskey
iPete, Little Jesse James, Ball Hor-
net, Eddie McReynolds, and Deer
Lodge and Skyrocket, the last two
being also old favorites to roundup
audiences in this section.
Some Added Sports

ing contests. This is something new
= in the sport game, and is called team

 Fox Farming
 Fox farming is coming into the linneiight as profitable industry in the Seward Peninsula dis- this industry during the past year. In most the foxes for breeding are captured but in soms cases the animals have been imported from South eastern Alaska The greatest feature of fox farm. ing in this section is the fact that the fur which borne is of a very high quality and the animals thrive in this climate
 Reindeer
 During the decade 1SS2-1so2 the Federal Government imported 1.2so reindeer from Siberia to Alaska. the purpose of which to make of the Alaska Eskimos self-supportng people. By 1905 there were 10000 reindeer in the territory and during the succeeding twenty years increased fifty fold-to more than 100000 animals In addition to this number than 150.O0o have been but. chered for food and clothing. Shipments of ren-
 
 age capacity of the steamers running to Nome-in 1924 being about 375.oO0 pounds and will exceed 6Oo.O0O pounds in 1925
 Alaska contains some one hundred and thirty million of reindeer pasturage. sufficient to support permanently about four million reindeer. This number should be reached n less than gen. eration and when fully stocked Alaska will nually produce approximately million 75.00O tons.

Tin
 Alaska has produced about s72 of metallic tin. which has nearly all from the piacsrs of the York District at the west end of Seward Penn- sula. A number of discoveries of lode tin have been made in the York section. The only develop has been Lost River Mine The best hope of the continuation of Alaska tin mining is based the lode tin in the York District. The Lost River Mine is the only property udicently develop ed justify the belief that it will become producer: yet there other deposits u the region which deserve further prospecting

An analysis of samples from deposit showed fifty per of iron, titan ium and o.ls per cent of P-2 o-5 The surface evidences indicate that the mneralizirs agents have affected considerable areas.
 Graphite
 Graphite in considerable quantities has been found in the Keewalik Mountains, 70 miles north of Nome and accessible to the sea from Imaruk Basin. which is connected by tidal estuary with Port Clar ence The graphite in this district lenses in quartz-biotte schiss. which themselves graphitis. These deposits of sufficient size to justify the hope that they can be proatably plotted.
 The largest of inaccessible coals those on :he Arctic slope where there are believed be extensive fields. The coals chiefly of low grade but include excellent bituminous coals Most of these coals are not now available but of them near Cape Lisburne be developed for use at Nome and other parts of Seward Penin sula (U. S.

This coal is used extensively in Candle and Deering . Coal deposits located the Kugruk River also supply the local needs of that section.

Didn't Know It Was Chapman.

Mir. Alcorn said 1t was not until after the visit of Shean and Chap man 10 eMerden that Shean had a suspicion of Chapman's identity.
 As to the necessity Of introducing all the testimony which had been in- troduced, MT. Alcorn said he could not have convicted Chapman on the testimony of the New Britain wit nesscs. It was necessary to connect Chapman with the property found.
 As to the refusal of tho court to segreGate witnesses, Mir. Acorn said that was matter in the discretion of the court. Referring to the inci- dent of the three men standing up in court when the nltroglycerine was offered in evidence, Mr. Alcorn said 1t did not appear in the record. The incident happened while Feeney was being examined, but Alcorn dis- claimed knowledge of what had hap pened and probably would not have known about 1t until Mir.
