demand the making of special rates,
this action by the railroad will be
an important factor in swelling the
Stampede crowd.
The various elements that work
together to make a big successful
rodeo are developing splendidly.
Letters from many of the best ri
ders in the West give assurance of
their entry into the contests here.
The unusual number of rodeo
shows being held this season works
out to the benefit of all of them,
particularly the larger ones such as
Wolf Points Fifth Annual. The
riders and performers find it worth
while to start out on the circuit
when there is opportunity to enter
into contests at numerous towns.
Locally preparations are being
carried steadily forward, the big
new grandstand is nearing compile
tion and the track and other parts
of equipment will be put into the
best condition. The Siebrand Car
nfval will be here tuesday and
from then on it will be a series of
gala days.

Montana Center of Quake
That Jars the Northwest

Helena, June 28.-Mother eartl
became nervous again late Sunday il
central Montana and suffered NOR,
convulsions. Tremors occurred a
Three Forks, White Sulphur Springs
and Anaconda. All of them were
slight.
After spending a night fraught
with terror over the hidden dan
gers of an earthquake disaster, the
population was preparing in several
towns to vacate their homes in case
a new disturbance occurred.
No loss of life has occurred, ac-
cording to definite advices reaching
here from citizens and towns in the
affected areas. Only three persons
have been injured, it is reported.
Two Badly Damaged
The tremors Sunday were confin-
ed to the south central region of
Montana, whereas Saturdays shocks
covered sections of four states, in
the northern half of the Rocky
mountain ranges. In the three other
states, Idaho, Washington and Wyo.,
the tremor were slight and no ma
terial damage was recorded.
Property damage estimates in the
stricken area of Montana have soar
ed to the S500,000 mark Sunday
night with reports of heavy damage
coming in from the smaller towns
and cities.
Two isolated towns are reported
to be seriously damaged by the trem-
ors, in complete reports states. At
White Sulphur Springs, which re-
ported a new shock Sunday, virtu-
ally all of the country buildings of
Meagher County and many of the
business structures have been demo-
lished with an estimated loss of
100000. A property damage toll
of 100000 was also exacted at
Three Forks, it is reported.
The center of the disturbance, all
authoritive information here Sunday
night indicates, was in the lower
Gallatin valley and the major small
er towns bore the brunt of the earth
quake's damaging effects.
Northern Montana Saturday night
felt series of light earthquake
shocks, none of which caused ma
terial damage.

He left Wolf Point on April 26,
stopping in Chicago, Boston and

CALIFORNIA HAS
LITTLE ON us NOW
EARTHQUAKES WHILE YOU
WAIT, AND MONTANA
PRODUCTS, TOO

There is no need of going to
California for your earthquake
thrills. They are now on the list
of Montana products and have actu-
ally been experienced right in the
city of Wolf Point.
Last Saturday evening about 6:25
few people noticed slight tremor
that caused doors and suspended
LIGHTS to swing, and dishes to raj
tie. 1t was just about as small
sample of an earthquake as Mother
Earth can hand out but no one is
complaining because it wasn't big
ger. Many people were entirely un-
aware that anything of the kind
had happened. Tho trembling seem
ed to be less noticeable on the ground
than in buildings.
Advance News
An. experience of the boys at the
Great Northern depot, if reported
correctly, proves that it takes
perceptible space of time for quake
to travel from one point to another
Some of the railroad men at the de-
pot noticed the tremor and said it
must have been an earthquake
Others laughed at them and told
them they were crazy, but in a
very few minutes the operator at
the key caught message from Hav-
re saying there had been a slight |
quake there. A short time after
wards the operator picked up an
other message from Havre which
said "here comes another one"
Everyone stood still and waited and
sure enough in a few seconds they
felt another trembling of the build
ing. This was the second shock,
which occurred just after seven
o'clock and was felt by but very few
people here.

Slip in EARTH FAULT
CAUSE OF TREMBLING

1t is the opinion of DIR. G. P. Clapp,
president of Montana University
that some earthquakes are due to
large landslides and to violent erup-
tions, but most of them are un-
doubtedly caused by slipping of great
faults or fractures in the earth's
crust
"There is little to fear from such
an earthquake, he added, and it is
probable that this slip has relieved
the stress to such an extent that an
other earthquake will not occur for
several years."
Fault movements, he declared, are
rarely or never of slow, continu-
Gus nature, but are sudden and in
termittent, taking place after a per-
iod of quiet, during which the earth's
strains accumulate to such an ex-
tent that the resistance to movement
is overcome and sudden slip takes
place.

dertaking has been named the Up

One of the principal objects of
the expedition is that of doing honor
to certain early explorers who per-
formed valuable services in OPEN
ing the northwest to civilization. A
second object is that of making
survey among remnants
Of those early Indian tribes which

RAILROAD BRIDGE
fills z PURPOSES
GREAT NORTHERN PLANKING
SNOWDEN STRUCTURE
FOR VEHICLES

Another of the fine things the
Great Northern Railway is doing for
this part of the state is the making
passable for vehicles the railroad
bridge across the Missouri River at
Snowden in this county. A crew
is now at work planking the bridge.
The company and the county boards
of Roosevelt and Richland counties
will cooperate in building ap-
proaches from the highways to the
track. 1t is announced that the
work will be completed by July IS,
which will be in time to facilitate
crossing to the Upper Missouri His
torical Expedition which will be held
July 18.
This means linking of the north
and south sides of the Missouri at
the state line and will be a great
boon to the people of that section
as well as to the people touring
north and south. The bridge was
built under the authority of the
Federal War Department and will
now operate as a toll bridge for
vehicles under the supervision of
that department. The bridge was
built by the Great Northern to con-
meet its Mckenzie County, North
Dakota and Richland county, Mon
tana branch with it's main line. Or
dinarily the .brige is crossed by but
two trains day which makes it en-
tirely feasible to convert it into a
dual purpose bridge.
