N. P. PUTS OUT
new PAMPHLET
ON NORTHWEST

A new, well illustrated, cOlOred
pamphlet descriptive of the resources
and farming opportunities of the Pa
cific Northwest, has just been issued
by the Northern Pacific railway, to
be used in answering general in
quiries from prospective hOmeseek-
ers and investors.
Under the title, Through the Fer
tile Northwest - Over the Scenic
Highway" it summarizes the varied
agricultural, manufacturing and min
ing resources of the Northwest, the
rapid growth Of this wonderful cOun-
try and its satisfying living cOndi-
tons.
Following this is a brief but de-
tailed description Of the soils, cli-
mate, agricultural opportunities, edu-
catiOnal and social advantages, etc.,
in each Of the Northwest states
Minnesota, North Dakota, Montana,
Idaho, Washington and Oregon.
This folder will have an immediate
circulation in the central east of more
than $4,000 copies, according to H.
W. Byerly, general immigration
agent for the railroad, under whose
direction the pamphlet is issued.
Copies will be mailed to the many
inquirers who are not yet interested
in any particular state but who ARE
seeking information that wiz help
them in making a choice, Nh. Byerly
said.
eft has been prepared as a part Of
the fOllOw-up work to the general
nationwide advertising campaign re-
Gently completed by the railroads and
in which the various states along cuI
line co-Operated. That campaign
brought to the attention of those in
other states the advantages the
Northwest has ho offer, and we are
now getting thousands Of inquiries
from possible settlers. There is q
real need for a folder Of this kind
and we believe it viii attract a large
number Of prospects to investigate
the opportunities in the Northwest.

STATE FAIR Will

Grounds to be Beautifully Dec
GRATED by an Expert-Other
improvements

HELENA=VisitOrs to the Mon
tana State fair at Helena, September
6 to IL, will be greeted by the finest
set Of decorations ever put up on
fair grounds in this state. A con-
tract has been entered into with an
expert on decorations, according to
Lewis Penwell, president Of the State
Fair board, and this expert has in
structiOns to prepare the midway and
the main entrance way in a colOrful
and gala fashion.
The expert employed to- decorate
the Montana fair grounds has had
years of experience in this work and
is the decorator who decorated the
city Of Los Angeles a year ago for
the Shrine convention at that place.
The fair management has arranged
to have him fix a set of decorations
over the bunch of beautiful shade
trees which are situabed just inside
the main enrance.
improvements are being made to
the grounds by a crew Of carpenters,
New benches around the outside OF
the grand stand and dance hall are
being provided for rest places fOr
visitors. The Manufacturers hal
has already been repaired and put il
the best possible shape for those whC
take advantage Of the opportunity
to show their wares to the large num-
Der of visitors who come to Helena.
Another improvement which ha'
been announced by Lewis Penwell, i
the making of two new gates at TIL,
main entrance. This was decided up
on because Of the congestion whicl
was Occasioned Last year by the TIRE
mendOus crowd which visited tn
fair on Labor day and on Thursda.
Of fair week. Drive-ways are to b
made to the new gates.

LEW MICHENER LEADS HIS
HACKERS INTO THE DITCH

A Stampede to Gallatin Basin-SOme
COlOrs Found But no Gold to Pay
For the Working of the Ground.
On Saturday last Lewis Kitchener
came down from Gallatin basin, and
exhibited to several persons in BOze-
man a small vial containing some
black sand, dirty water, and four
large nuggets of gold. He claimed
to have obtained the gold on a claim
up the West Gallatin. To his init
mate friends he said he had driven a
tunnel on the side Of a stream and
what he exhibited in the bottle had
been obtained from a few pans. OF
earth taken from bedrock. The story
seemed fishy. Michener's reputation
for veTacity was not seriously ques-
toned but he has too many persons
for whom he is working, each think.

ing he is the favOrite, so the truth
Of his story of such a discovery as
his nuggets indicated was considered
extremely doubtful. Nevertheless,
about 20 of the persons wha had been
putting up for Michener for the past
year or more and for whom he claim
ed to have sbaked claims, and several
other persons who thOnght there
might be something rich, hurriedly
got outfits together and left for the
promised EldOradO.
Wednesday several persons return
ed to the city and from them we
learn that the parties leaving here
Saturday evening reached the
grounds, about Is miles from this
city, on Sunday evening. The place
of the reported strike is on Black
Butte creek, a small stream rising in
the park and flowing into the West
Gallatin opposite the cabin Of E. c.
Andersen and Charles G. Curtis.
About 70 or 80 persons were on
the ground Monday and perhaps So
pans Of earth were panned out by
experienced prOspectOrs from ground
on the Kitchener claim. Absolutely
nothing worthy of being called g

a color was seen, but no pan of eartf
gave as good results as can be OBJ
tanned from guOund right in sight Of
this city.
The prospectOrs scattered and thor

is lava and sandstone. The bedrOcl
on Miehener's claim is sandstone,
bedrock that would not hold gold il
perchance, gold should be washe0
over it.
Michener's object in creating tn
stampede is not known. It is sup
posed that it was to ecu money
as he represented that he would nee
several hundred dollars with whic
to bring water onto the bar wheT
he claimed ito have made his di:

BUTLER RULING
HARDSHIP, PLEA
Sororities Protest Order Of
College Dean.

Butler University Pan-Hellenic
Council today wrote a letter to Pres
ident Robert ]. Alley and college trus-
tees, protesting a ruling of Dean
Evelyn Butler, requiring freshmen
sorority pledges whose homes are
out of the city to live in the Uni
versity dormitory next year.
The order will be a hardship on
the sororities because Of limited
membersip. and it will be unable for
some of the societies to operate
houses, according to Miss Eleanor
Dunn, council president. Council
composed of two from each of the
eleven sororities, voted Sunday to
protest the deans action. Abolish
ment Of the rule was asked.
DR.. Alley, who approved the or
der, said the rule was partially in
effect last year, with special privi-
leges to some.
The letter stated six reasons why
the rule would work a hardship.
DIR. Alley said he had not received
the communication, but would turn
it over to Miss Butler,
Miss Gladys Hooker is council
secretary. Miss Butler, who is out
Of the city, mailed the lruling to

COOLIDGE, KELLOGG CONFER
Policy of This Government Relative
to Mexico Is Discussed.

BV United Press
PAUL SMITHS. N. Y. Aug. 16.
The situation in Mexico. growing
out of that republics action against
the church, drew Secretary of State
Kellogg and President Coolidge into
conference today.
Secretary Kellogg arrived Sunday
from Washington to discuss with
Coolidge the events in the Mexican
Republic as they affect this country.
From the conferences it was ex-
pected will come the answer to
whether the United States will in
ject itself into the religious struggle
or will continue to hold that the
question is one for the Mexican
government to deal with alone and
without Interference.
II was understood that Kellogg
came here believing the recent petit
ton of the Knights Of Columbus
asking this government to interfere
on behalf OF the church, demands
an answer before much additional
time has elapsed.
1t was considered here that any
American Interference was a remote
possibility as long as Mexico re-
Trains from any direct tresspass
against American rights.

No one ever caught sign of a
jarring note between husband and
wife, yet no one ever saw a sign
of affection. If they did not wash
their dirty linen in public. neither
did they air their clean linen. there,
and this mere absence Of anything
to talk about caused the gossips to
talk volubly about them.
The neighbor, Mrs. Prentiss, was
deeply curious and spent much of
her insomnia at her west window,
hoping for cloud as big as a mans
hand to appear, that she might draw
some conclusions as to the family
status.
So far, she had been unsuccessful.
The Heaths lived most naturally and
ordinarily. Now and then they had
parties. Now and then they went
to parties. He went to the club.
she went to bridge games, and they
both went to church. A more
exemplary couple could not be
imagined. Yet Mrs. Prentiss, per.
haps in the vagaries of her insomnia,
had persistent intuition that there
was fly in the Heath ointment, and
sAA was determined to swat It..
&Ae bungalow of the artists was q
long -fronted house, shingled and
painted white. With the superior
taste OF the Harbor Gardens crowd,
he scorned such things as living
rooms, sun parlors. breakfast al
coves and sleeping porches.
The whole of the middle Of the
house was one great room called
the lounge, which had doors back
and front, and from which the stair
case ascended. Then one end was
the studio. spacious and well lighted.
and the other end the dining room.
That was all, save for the long rear
