PHOTOS OF NORTHWEST IN
NEW VOLUME AT LIBRARY

Photographic views, with des-
criptive accounts of the country
and towns along the route of the
Northern Pacific railway are con-
tained in a volume recently ac-
lulred by the Red Lodge public
library. Vacation Land" is a
section of this volume dealing with
the recreational Possibilities of the
Rocky mountains, and containing
a number of excellent scenic photo
graphs. "The Stored Northwest"
Is a historical section, illustrated
by photographs of historically
famous points on the N. P, to-
gether with we'll written histor-
ical sketches. M. B. Pay, local
agent for the Northern Pacific,
is the donor of the book.
Six volumes were added to the
stacks at the library last month,
according to the monthly report
of Mrs. E. NJ. Adams, librarian,
and the registration of card hold
ers has been increased by three.
There are now 1888 registered

SIX ARRESTED TN
CONNECTION WITH
BEARCREEK THEFTS

Search warrants issued on Bear
creek residences last week, and
acted upon in a thorough going
way by Sheriff John Albert, re-
suited in the making of six ar
rests this week. Two people have
been jailed, two paid fines, and
two cases are pending, all relative
to the theft of property of the
Mutual Fuel company of Bear
creek.
On complaint of w. H. Homer,
a search was instituted for cer-
tain property stolen from a ware
house of the Mutual company in
Bearcreek. In the residence of
George Kurinko, officers turned
up not only property specified in
the warrant, but other purloined
goods. Kurinko and his son were
charged with petit larceny, trial
of both cases being set for Satur-
day. More serious charges may
be filed in these cases, according
to County Attorney E. P. Conwell.
Tony Ringer and Paul Sigerni
Of Bearcreek were given Jail SEN
tences after being proved guilty
of petit larceny, and George Mi
chunovick and Mrs. Jack Sudor
Were assessed fines.
County officers believe that this
search and roundup may help to
check the epidemic of petty thiev-
cry that has been noticed in some
parts of the county lately.

RED LODGE LOSES
ONE AND WINS ONE
Park City Beaten, but Negro
Team Defeats Local
Ball Club

After taking fast one from
Park City Sunday by a score of
"a to 10, the Red Lodge ball club
lost an encounter with the Van
Dykes, cblored baseball tourists
from Sioux City Monday evening.
Heavy clouting by Vavich, Gre
cory, Michelcic and E. Houtonen
spelled bad news for the Park City
outfit. Red Lodge runs were coll
lected in each of the last four
innings of the game, three runs on
hits by Toffer, R. Houtonen and
H. Wadsworth in the eighth frame
putting a final clinch on the game.
A home run by Michelcic was
made in the fourth.
H. Wadsworth, pitching for Red
Lodge struck out ten in the course
of the game and allowed no bases
on balls. Hits allowed the Park
City batters were fairly we'll
scattered, though series of four
runs were pushed through by Park
City in the sixth.

STUDENT GROUP
FROM PRINCETON
HERE NEXT WEEK
Party of 27 Includes Prom
inent Biologists. Excur-
sions from Red Lodge
Planned by Directors.

Students of the international
Summer School of Geology and
Natural Resources will arrive next
Wednesday, August 10, in a spec
lal Pullman car. Stopping here
on their 1000 mile tour of Can
ada and the northwestern United
States, members of the party will
study and make observations of
Beartooths, with special attention
to the mining industry and metal
lurgical possibilities of this region.
Professor R. M. Field of Prince
ton university, who was formerly
occupied here with the regularly
encamped expedition, is directing
the visiting party, and Prof. Erl-
ing Dorf, who departed from Red
Lodge last month, is returning
with the group. Glasses in geol-
ogy will be conducted by Prof.
Field and others of the Princeton
camp, while Prof. Dorf will give
instruction in mineralogy, possibly
supplemented with talks and DEM
onstrations on the paleontology of
this area.
Among the 27 guests who are
expected to arrive with the party
are Edward J. Bloom, prominent
mining lawyer; DR.. A. C. Lane,
president of the Geological Society
of America; Kenneth Condit, man.
aging editor of the McGraw-Hill
publication company; J. A. Retty,
Canadian geologist.
The visiting students and scien-
fists will be guests of the Prince
ton group here, which will adjust
its activity during their stay to
conform with the program of the
touring group. A schedule of ex-
cursions has been planned by the

RED LODGE GOLFERS WIN
MATCH WITH HARDIN CLUB

Although the medal score in last
Sundays inter-city contest was
turned in by a Hardin player, the
Red Lodge club won the day by a
score of 1913. Twelve members

and Red Lodge was represented by
II of the local players.
The low score was a II shot by
Colberg, of Hardin, who was fol-
lowed by C. C. Rowan with an 80.
Turner and Skinner were tied for
third high place with 81 apiece,
while Luttrell was next with an
SS. Bowman and Detwieiler of
Hardin shot COS, and Hasterlik
of Red Lodge a 90. Other low
scores for Red Lodge were made

ENGINEER TO SCAN
WATER SITUATION
Conservation of Rock Greek
And Rosebud Water
Considered

j. S. James, state engineer, who
made a survey of the headwaters
of East Rosebud creek last week,
will return Saturday to make an
excursion to the upper reaches Of
Rock creek, and possibly the Clark
Fork, where he will investigate
the possibilities of irrigation water
control.
Mr.. James will be accompanied
by Ed Draper and others of this
district who are familiar with the
water situation, and will study the
structure of the creek, taking
notes on the volume and flow Of
the water. A report of this re-
connaisance, with an outline of the
situation on the Rosebud will be
submitted at the hearing to be
conducted by the Federal War de-
partment in Billings, August "a.
The Billings hearing is one of
many conducted throughout the
country in connection with the ma
tional survey of water resources
being carried on by Army engi-
neers. The governmental plan for
the national survey provides for
the holding of public hearings in
various areas under study, from
which information in regard to
irrigation, flood control, naviga-
ton, and water power can be ga
thered from the people living in
those sections. Data resulting
from these investigations may
form the basis for a series of gov
ernment projects in this country
The hearing at Billings will re-
ceive reports and statements from
all points in the Yellowstone basin,
and on all tributaries of the yell
lowstone.
That Carbon county has water
problem is we'll demonstrated by
the shortage of irrigation water
this summer. Solutions bf the
shortage dilemma have been sug-
gested before-one being the plan,
projected some years ago, to build
a dam at the head of East Rose
bud creek to store water for use
on the land west of Joliet, Similar
projects for water conservation
are quite possible, both on the
Rosebud and Rock creek, and it
is hoped that investigations con-
Quoted now may lead to the fu-
ture construction Of irrigation
dams.

headwaters last Saturday in COM
pany with Albert Budas, Ed Dra
per, and Matt Kroknes, Engineer

FIRST SHIPMENT Of MACHINERY
FOR HIGHWAY ARRIVES IN RI,
TWO WELLS STARTED
IN DRY CREEK FIELD
AND OTHERS LIKELY

Two new bores will be sunk in
the Dry Creek structure this sum-
mIer, according to reports from
the field. One well was started
yesterday on the Margaret Sou
ders lease, and another is under
way by the Ohio company, prob
ably to be known as the Industrial
No. 2.
The new industrial is located a
quarter of mile north of the No.
l, about midway between the No. 1
and the Margaret Souders. The
cellar is being dues now, and the
location will be ready for the rig
gers within few days. Rotary
equipment will be used.
Ranchers holding land in that
section have given extensions for
drilling, although no extension
was given son the Souders prop
erty.
Rumors drifting about the Dry
Greek dlgg1ngs also indicate the
possibility of a well to started
on the Margaret McCaulay per-
NIT. This would be an offset to
the Cooke and Weber well.
The Cooke and Weber Bear
tooth is now beyond 400 feet, and
expected to break into the From
tier sand within another 90 feet.
Cores taken recently have shown
a fair amount of gas, leading drill
ers to expect good production of
gas in the Frontier. 1t is under
stood that market for gas from
the Beartooth has been secured.
The Chapman began oper-
alton of its new rotary equipment
last Friday, and is being drilled
now at about 1900 feet.
In the Frannie field the Midwest
we'll is drilling at 1870, with tests
comparing closely with the log of
the best producing well of the
field. 1t is expected to be finished
by the middle of September; pros
poets now are favorable for a good
production of black oil.

GAS INSTALLATION
is PROCEEDING AT
FAST PACE IN CITY
Excavations Will be Finish-
ed This Week. Gas to be
Turned in for Test With
in Ten Days.

At the rate that work has been
moving on the installation of the
Red Lodge gas system, it is pos
.sible that gas may be turned into
the city from Dry Creek and test
made of the new conduits within
ten days, says T. R. Workman,
superintendent of construction
here. Practically all bitches have
been dug, and pipe is now being
dropped into the channels.
Because of the rapidity with
which the gas system is being
built here, officials of the COM
pany urge all Red Lodge residents
who wish gas service in their
homes or places of business to
file application at once, in order
that arrangements may be made
for service lines while the city
mains are being laid. More than
two hundred applications for gas
have been received at the local
office already.
Digging of the trench for the
tap line between Red Lodge and
the Dry Creek line will be COM
pleted within two days, according
to Wortham, and the four inch
conduit will be laid Immediately
afterward.
Workmen in Red Lodge are now
constructing the last trenches for
the city mains, while pipe has al
ready been laid on several streets.
This week will see the last of the
excavation, and work will go far
ward on the laying of the pipe.
Gas will be turned into the Red
Lodge system for preliminary
test within ten days.
Approximately eight miles of
gas pipe is being strung in the
city. Nine thousand feet of four
inch pipe will be used to form the
main loop in the city-a loop that

COMMISSION FIXES
COUNTY TAX LEVY
City and County Levies are
Boosted by Margin
of Two Mills

Tax levies for the year 1881
were definitely fixed by the Board
of County Commissioners in the
special session last Monday, and
various county budgets were adop-
ted, after all revisions were made,
at the meeting of Monday, August
5.
Increases in the state and cclln-
ty levies are noticed this year,
although levies on several items
were appreciably reduced, and the
general tax level is not measur-
ably higher.
A reduction is seen in the state
levy, the state general fund levy
being placed this year at 2 mills,
ard the livestock levy at 3.5 mills.
Tic educational bond interest and
sinking fund, and the Greater Uni
versity fund, however, call for an
increase of one mill over last
years levy. the figure being 5.33
as against 4.33 of 1880.
The total county levy has been
increased this year by two mills,
while the county unit levy, includ-
ing the sinking and interest funds,
remains the same.
A two-mill increase in the to-
tai levy for the city of Red Lodge
was made over the levy of "a mills
Of last year. The Joliet levy was
reduced from 30 to &c, and the
levies for Fromberg and Bearcreek
remain the same, 20 mills each.
The Bridger levy was reduced five
mills.
Tax stipulations for the school
districts Of the county, based on
the budgets recently approved by
the commissioners and the county
superintendent call for increased
levies ON IA Of the Sc districts. the
amounts to be raised by taxation
for most school districts remain
ing much the same as last year.
No levy was made for districts 55,
5S, and 81 this year, in view Of
the funds on hand for maintenance
in those districts. The school lev
les vary from three, mills for the
general fund of district Sc, to 35
mills for district no. /. Eight lev
les stand unchanged.
Budgets as passed by the COM
mission were held down to

Grasshoppers a Burden
Oil Needs Help
A Laugh for Lawyers
Ships for Sale

Doctor Larrimer, government en-
tomologist, says grasshoppers de-
stroying crops in northwestern and
central states are expanding their
ravages 90 miles a day by taking
to their wings. There is little hope
for grasshopper control this season.
This reminds you that proud
man, dressed in a little brief au-
thority, may some day find himself
wiped out by combination Of
plaques, insects destroying crops,
rats and ground squirrels carrying
disease, ants destroying everything
In hot countries, rabbits and mos
Quitos.
Proud man should devote to the
task of protecting himself against
such enemies some of the ingenuity
that he devotes to poison gas and
explosives for killing of other men.
Grasshoppers are not as foolish
as men.

County Will Aid Morrison
Knudsen to Improve
Existing Read
to Camp

This morning the first install
ment of heavy machinery to be
used by the Morrison and Knud-
sen company arrived in Red Lodge.
A gasoline powered shovel outfit
is ready for unloading at the rail
road yards, having been shipped in
from Salt Lake City, and other
machinery is to follow within the
next few weeks.
Preparations for large scale
work on this end are being direc-
ted by E. B. Alsop, engineer for
Morrison and Knudsen. Grader
outfits have been taking the kinks
out off the road between here and
Richel lodge and crew has been
doing some clearing work near
Hellroaring creek, where the road
camp is being established.
Before the machinery can be
moved into place at the construc-
tion point, the road up Rock creek
will have to widened in places,
says Alsop, as shovel outfits can
not be walked from here to Quad
creek over the existing roads. The
county and city of Red Lodge has
agreed to aid the Morrison Knud-
sen outfits in this work.
Several county trucks have been
promised to the contracting COM
pany, and the city council of Red
Lodge has agreed to place a city
truck at the disposal of the high
way men.
Morrison and Knudsen expect to
have four shovel outfits in place
in Rock creek canyon before win
ter sets in, and the attendant num-
ber of fresnos, graders, and scrap
ers. Some Of the machinery will
be shipped here from the Yellow
stone, as soon as the job on Dun
raven pass is finished by the COM
pany, and other units will come
from Idaho and Utah.
Employment has not been start
ed in big way yet, although a
few men were put to work by Al
sop last week on the road-improv-
ing outfits. Although swamped
with requests for work, the engi-
neer states that he cannot use
many men Immediately.
In the selection of workers for
the construction, those in charge
have the intention of hiring local
men as much as possible. No
floating workers will be taken on
in preference to men who have
lived and worked in this commun-
ity.
McNutt and Pyle, contractors
building the Unit B section of the
Cooke City highway, began pre-
liminary operations on the south
ern end last week. H. E. Mitchell,
resident engineer, reports that a
crew at work near the Nordquist
dude ranch is engaged in grotnd
clearing and leveling. Meanwhile
the Morrison-Knudsen company is
preparing to open up on the con-
struction job at this end.
Grading and digging outfits to
be used on Unit B have been or
dered in by McNutt and Pyle, to
arrive there within two weeks.
When the caterpillars and shovels
are in place, according to Jack
