George Alderson Dead, _, At 4 o’clock this afternoon editor and proprietor of the Living ston’ Post, dropped dead from heart disease while working at his desk in his newspaper office. The news of his sudden taking off was a great. shock to~the people of Livingston” with whose interests he has so long been identified, and expressions of serrow were heard on all sides.

However, the prominent advertising given the farm through the daily-papers caused a deluge of letters and tel- egrams from all over the country to pour into the hands of Sheriff “Collins and other officials of the County. Each of the writers ex- pressed fi-desire to become the ‘owner of the farm, and every let- ter offered some suggestion as to the proper use to be made of the birthplace of the’great emancipat- or. Some suggested that a public park be made ‘Out of the farm and others anggested that the Govern- ment buy it and convert it into a home for old an¢ disabled soldicrs, while Some proposed it be conveit- ed into a home ‘for ex-slaves. Some of the suggestions were Judicrous in the extreme. _A letter from a farmer in Kansas said he wished to. buy the farm for the sole purpose of raising corn, as he thought that a farm which could “produce such a wonderful mani ought to be able to make a good crop of corn. Another was from a Wyoming ranchman, who said he would buy. the place, if it sold reasonably, and convert ‘it into a cattle ranch. The-mos€ “amusing letter received, however, was from The recent snow blockade is said to have been the worst ever known in the history in-the North- ern Pacific, burying nearly 300 miles of.track and causing a loss of $250,000.

He suggested that if the-farm could be bought ‘within the sum of $10,000. ‘we’? would buy it and convert it in- to a Summer sea resort, where the society people of the Eastern cities could gather in the Summer and | spend their time ‘quietly in boat! riding and*swimming. Another | letter proposed that the farm be converted into a hunting ground for the Eastern sports. The writer said he thought it would contain about 10,000 acres from what he had heard. —_—_—_— No Sabbath in Fifty’ Years. In discussing ‘America’s Relig- ous Crisis,’ the Rev. George C. Lorimer, pastor of the Madison avenue Baptist church, said; “Religion, especially Evangeli- cal religion, is today of a very low vitality. The attendance at church services is shamefully small. We are attracted by secular writers. They tell us that the ministry is deteriorating; that the churches have Jost their influence to the ‘schools, and that education alone “€an encompass all the activities of life. ‘They say that the churches of life than for the gospel, and point with scorn at the ice cream * suppers and other cheapening meth- ods of obtaining money to support the gospel. They condemn us for sending missionairies abroad when our people are spiritually starving athome. But, however true these secusations. may be in part, they areoverdrawn. They must be taken with an allowance. Yet a thought- ful man will not ingore them. He must admit that there isa crisis in American religious life. — “As bas been said, we live for ‘money by day and pleasure by ht. i have no fear in saying t the present rate we are liv- , in 50 year’s we will have no in the second degree Saturday evening, “and the jury fixed his punishment at 99 years in the pen- itentiary. p Sunday. night, March 16th, the home of E. Elford, of Sheridan, came near being destroyed by fire? during their temporary absence, but a near by neighbor went to the rescue and the fire was put out be- fore sorious damaze was done. The fire caught from a kitchen! stovepipe. A sheepherder on a Dawson county range, during the recent storm had both hands and feet-se- badly frozen that it is feared amp- putation will be necessary. He had to wallow through drifts fifteen feet deep, but stayed with his sheep until relief came. He is now in the hospital for treatment. eS -Biggest Theater in the World. Oscar Hammerstein, the builder of New York theaters, has begun work on a néw playhouse. The new theater is to be called the Drury Lane and erected in West Thirty-fourth street, and will be the largest theater in the: world, occupying # ground space of 125 by 200 feet. The Drury Lane will have a seating capacity of 4,800. The prevailing prices will be of the popular‘arder.. A novel feat- ure of it will be one balenny, with a separate-entrance, reserved ex- clusively for members of the col- ored race, of whom there are some 300,000 in New York. This balco- ny will be divided into high-priced and low-priced compartments, and wil] be supplied with every luxury that prevails in any other part of the house. : Blind, but a Working Architect. D.

Reardon, a Boston archi- tect, is totaly blind, nevertheless hd has designed many of the hand- someSt buildings in that,city, and has just completed the plans for a a sixstory department house to be erected by the Perkins institute} neapolis to gonsult specialists re- garding his ailments, but was un- able to obtain only little relief. He was born at Arkengarthdale, Yorkshire, England, in 1833. At the age of 16\he came to Amer- ica with his parents and settled in Illinois, He sfterwards moved to Wisconsin, where he engaged in farming. He. was married there. In 1881 he left Wisconsin and came to Montana, locating at Miles City, where he remafnedun- til 1885, when he removed to Boze- man, where he began his news-+- paper career by establishing the Montanw’ Register. In 1890 he purchased the Livingston Post ‘fom J. D, Whelpley and removed to this city, where he has since re- sided. : Mr. Alderson was a member of the Montana Press association and at meeting of that organization held in this city in August, 1900, he was unanimously elected as its president. During the past year Mr, Alderson. gonstructed the Livingston Post building om Cal- lendar street, which is now occu- pied. by his newspaper. --It is one of the handsomest newspaper offi- ces in the state.

Wiggin of this city.. ““We'spent five days at Minot,’ said Mrs. Wiggin to an_Inter Mountain reporter this morning, and if you can imagine a more impatient lot than the ever increasing crowd of passengers in that little Dakota town I wonder who they were. “One little baby died at Minbdt from exposure. It was a sad grief-stricken. I had an oppor- tunity to exercise my professional knowledge with another little one, who was taken ill with pneamonia and had. the satisfaction of send- ing it along with its parents to Tacoma rejoicing: “There was a physician .from Spokane on the train and I am sorry it is not in your ability to expose the treatment almost ap- proaching brutality which he ae- corded those who were taken ill onthe tain. Se “He refused to give his atten- tion to the poor little sufferer that dicd at Minot, remarking that he was tired of waiting on people and not getting anything in return for his trouble. “The railroad people treated us very nicely, paying for all our ex- penses.’’*—Inter Mountain. Convertible Post Checks. The bill introduced in the senate by Mr. MeMillan of Michigan to prevent robbing the mails, prdvide a safer and easier method of send- ing money by mail and to increase the postal revenues, has been in- troduced in the house by Mr. Gardner of Michigan. The bill is indorsed by the American News- paper Publishers’ assoéiation. “It provides that all paper money hereafter issued. by the United States, of the denomination of $1, $2 and $5, except national bank tnotes, shall be of thé form known as the post check, and shall be\con- vertible by the holder thereof into a check toa named payee.’ This post check will be exchangeable at any United -States-money order postofiice for current funds, after which the postmaster will cancel it and forward it to.a depository des- ignated by the postmaster general, and shall receive credit therefor. This paper currency will have appropriate blank spaces in which the holder may write his nime and postoflice: address of a payee, ie ‘ iat, for the blind.” » and wherein the payee.may give receipt. ‘ George Alderson, the Well known} plight and the poor mother was}, Merrible Experience of a Huntes L With_an Indian Band. One of the most remarkable Instance: of the escape of a white man from.) was that of John Colter, a f mous hi and trapper, ‘On the cs) in question he and his companion were surrounded by 600 savage warriors. The companion was iustatitly killed, and Colter was captured. His foes had no intention of saving his life, Low- ever. “Wanted the sport of put- ting him to the torture or at least of playing with him as a cat plays with a mouse, The chief asked him if he eould run, He said, “Not much.” He was released and told to save bis life if he could, Colter darted away at bch / speed, and most of-the 600 savages sect off aft- er him. There was a plain before him #ix miles wide, bounded on the far side by a river fringed with trees, Colter had always been famous as a runner, and his practice now stood him in, good stead. He made Straight acros$ the plain for the stream, and the yells of his pursuers Jent him wings. His. foes had removed eyery shred of clothing from his body, and the plain was ,cov- ered with prickly pears, co that his un- protected feet were lacerated at eyery stride. a Haif way across the plain he glanced back and saw that only a few Indiane were following him. Again he ran on and soon realized that one of his pur- puers. wag nearing him. He redoubled bis efforts, and blood gushed from bis nostrils and flowed down over his breast. The fringe of trees was-near, but a hasty backward look ghowed him the pursuing brave close upon him witb spear raised. Moved by a sudden im. pulse, Colter stopped, turned and faced the savage with outstretched arms. The Indian was so taken aback at this unexpected movement that he stumbled and fell! This was Colter’s opportunity. Tle ran back, seized the spear and, pinning his antagonist to the ground, ran on. Other savages came on, flercer than before at the death of their comrader but Colter reached the trees, plunged into their midst and then Into the river and swam to a pile of driftwood that had lodged. He dived beneath it and stuck his head up between two logs covered with smaller tUmbers and brush. The Indians came up and searched for several hours, but failed to tind him. Again and again they walked over the driftwood. Luckily they did not fire it, as he feared they would. At last they went away. Then Colter swam out and fled through the forest. Seven days he went on, Ilving on roots and berries, with no clothing, un- til at last he reached a tracing post on the Bighorn river. ‘He never fully.re covered from the effects of this terrible experience.— Youth's Companion. “Wiis Bank Signature. A case for a hanilwriting expert was neticed at one of the downtown banks the other day.” A treiisurer of one of the many charitable organizations ot this city bad received a check to be de- voted to that certain charity. and he was desirous of acknowledging It, but could not fead the Bignatpre. He took ‘the check to the bank on which it was drawn and questioned one of the clerks as to the signature and was told that it was genuine, but could not get the desired joformation. It was vext tak en to the paying teller, who also de clared that it was genuine, but even he could not make out who it was and had to consult the enrd catalogue. There was not the slightest resem blance between the signature to the eheck and the real name.—New York Post. The “Bad” Boys. The “bad” boys are often the best boys in the neighborhood. All they want ts a chance to do something. Don’t expect healthy, active boys to want to be tied up in books and so called improving occupations continu- aily. If boys are vot given good iden to work upon, such as they always get in kindergartens, manual training and othér up to date schools; they are sure to be in hasmful mischief, because boys with vim and “get there” in. them are bound to be busy. Give them toole and materials to work with; encourage them fo make sleds, carts, Loats and various kinds of playthings. Don't ever give a “bad” boy up. Give him something to do. ae Vanished Interest. “Charley, dear,” sald young Mrs. Tor- kins, “do you think that women ought to be prevented from voting?” “Certainly not.” “Wouldn’t you try to stop me if I tried to go to the polls?” “Not for an instant.” “Well, then, what in the world Is the bm of wanting to vote?7’—Washington tar. ‘ From Bad to Worse.

Formerly Despised, They Are Now Considered « Delicacy, Half a century or so ago diamond back terrapin were fed to slaves and hogs. Today they are the rarest’ dell- cacy known to the epicurian world, says the Philadelphia North American. Then. they sold for $1 9 barrel, and laborers, when hiring’ out, specified that they must not be compelled to eat terrapin more than twice a week. To- day a barrel is cheap at $800, od mil- lionatres travel hundreds of miles for a chance to feast on this most dell- cious of all meats. Of course this means genuine dia- mond backs. There are many imita- tions. Every. first class restaurant in the country features “terrapin a la Mary- land” on its menu, but in vet one case out of a hundred ts the real terrapin served. The diner regales himself on what he believes to be Maryland's choicest disb. Instead he {g_ merely | eating fresh water turtles, “sliders” or “North Carolina goldeus.” The reason is simple. Restaurateurs don’t serve real diamond backs be- cause they can’t get them. The world’s total terrapin population daes not ex- céed'25,000 of legal size, and these are confined to the shores of the Chesa- peake bay, the only place that produces them. Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York enjoy a monopoly. These three cities get practically the entire output, but few ever find thelr way across the Blue Ridge. The epicure unfortunate enough to be born in Chicago or St. Louls inust either come east or forego the joys of terrapin. To select'a real diamond back ama- teurs should be guided by these distin- guishing-and characteristic markings: At Is of a greenish, dark olive color, sometimes running to spotted gray, yellow on the plate which surrounds the shell and has concentric dark stripes along the plate on both shells, The sidés of the head are a dirty white, sprinkled with small black spots. The bottom shel! ts .of whitish yellow. The males are much larger than the females and have the concentric streaks much better defined. The female has the more delicate flesh. The male can be distinguished by his toe ails, which are much longer than those of the fe- male, PICKINGS FROM FICTION, If you would have a noble son, be a noble father.—“l44.

KIT O + Carrot Jinr badbeen up on the range” R NELL?> for six months, and when he came down the old Oregon trail with 4,000 eattle he was as thin as a rail and homesick with that awful homesick- ness which a man feels who hasn't a bome. He was in Aght of Bryson when lis pony went down and, fallingon him, fractured his leg. When they got him in town, they took bim to the hotel and proceeded to mend him, “Thought you was just in time to go to the weddin’ Jim,” said some one, “What weddin’?” asked Jim, glad to speak and save himself from groaning. “The weddin’ ,up at Lee's.” | “At Lee's?’ cried ye sick man, sit-— ting up. “Which girl is goin’ to be married—Kit or Nell?” “Don’t know,” - Carrot Jim got up on bis elbow and looked over the crowd. _“What man’s here that. will do a service for nie?” he askedThatit was not. a trifling service which be svas about to.ask was apparent from bis manner. His fa@¢e was strained and white with physical pain, but in his eyes was a look such as physical pain cannot give. “I guess I'm your man,” young Fig: gins said, coming around from behind tne big base burner. “What's the job?’ He was a strapping young Irishman, with round blue eyes, and Carrot Jim got him out of a stampede on the range ‘the year before. Every one had for- gotten it except Higgins himself. “It’s a little slow,” he said. apologetically, “so I’ll be glad to git out of here. What do you want me to do?” Carrot Jim saw everything black be- fore him, and his voice as he spoke sounded far off and like the voice of another man, but he managed to say: “Ride to Lee’s—now, tiow, now! Git Wack before the weddin’' and let me know whether it’s Kit or Nell.” “Well?” said young Higgins. “Well?” “Well,” cried Carrot Jim, gesticulat- ing—violently with his fingers like a man in the wheat pit, “if it’s Nell, come back here and let me kuow, and I'll set ‘em up for the bull crowd, and if it’s Kit—why, if ft’s Kit’— “Then,” said young Higgius, compre hending, “probably you'd rather pot see me at all.” - “Don't be.a fool, Jim,” said the hotel clerk. “If a weddin’-is on, it can't be stopped, There’s a storm comin’ up.

When they got to Lee’s, the borse whinaled, and some ote came out and lugged Higgins in to the fire, and after a drink or two he was all right. And thei, _ what with having the cold in his and the memory of a pretty victory in bis heart—for he liked to be a hero and was glad be was alive—he sat up and whooped like an Indiaii, ‘so that - the cayuse out in the stable heard it and lifted its ears as if his old mas- ters were calling him, For the bride was Nell; it was Nell, with the china blue eyes and the silly~ yellow hair, and Kit—who had lovely. eyes of brown, and a brow like a Ma- donna’s, and whom Carrot Jim had been thinking of all those awful soli- tary nights up on the range—Kit was asking Higgins how he felt and why Carrot Jim hadn’t come with him. © They didn’t want him to go back that ‘night. They said it was suicidal, but Higgins had bis own ideas, and he had read of D’Artagnan, so he got into a squirrel skin coat and kissed the bride and took a stirrup cup and rode away. In his breast was an envelope witha lock of brown hair. It was for Carrot , and Kit bad cut it for him with ber own hands.
