What is this?
Optical character recognition (OCR) is an automated process that converts a digital image containing numbers and letters into computer-readable numbers and letters. The search engine used on this web site searches OCR-generated text for the word or phrase you are looking for. Please note that OCR is not 100 percent accurate. If the original image is blurry, has extraneous marks, or contains ornate font styles or very small text, the OCR process will produce nonsense characters, extraneous spaces, and other errors, such as those you may see on this page. In addition, the OCR process cannot interpret images and may ignore them or render them as strings of nonsense characters. Despite these drawbacks, OCR remains a powerful tool for making newspaper pages accessible by searching.

Kendall, Montana, June 30, 1903. 5. TO EDUCATE THE 'FEET Yale University Professors to Give Instruction in Dances. Irish Jigs, Clog Dances, Reels, Tilts and Stage Dancing to Be IncInd- ' led in the Work of the Gymnasium. Irish jigs, clog dances, reels, tilts and stage dancing will be taught to students of Yale who elect such in- struction as part of the work required of freshmen in the gymnasium of the university. Dr. William G. Anderson, director of the gymnasium. will be in- structor in the unique curriculum. He will be assisted by AV. Hand and I. H. Warner, also instructors in the gym- nasium. The purpose of the dancing exercises is to give physical poise, grace, agil- ity and suppleness. Dr. Anderson said to -day: \Doering was an impor- tant part of the training given to the boys of ancient Greece. They were the most graceful men of ancient na- tions, largely -because --04- the ts train- • tag. In fact, the Greeks so much ap- preciated that fact that they made the dance an integral part of the young boys' education. No less wise a man than Socrates took instruction in dancing to reduce his stomach, and in his later years commended dancing. \We shall begin our course of in- struction with the Irish jigs This will enable the students to acquire balance on the feet and the shifting of weight. After that we shall try the Irish tilt. The tilt is a leaping dance and is used for its practice in sparring. These two dances are all which will be given this year. We plan to put on another school year the clog and the soft-shoe dances, the buck and Aving Narieties. Of conrsei - thease - Irstd - logien I ly to dance with the handsprings and the shoulder rolls, but we have made no specific plans for trying them here yet.\ SUPERSTITIOUS HUNTER. California Taxidermiet Shoots a White quail. and Then Sprains Ill• Ankle. Notlwice in a decade does It fall to the lot of a man to behold a white California quail. So far as is known not more than half a dozen have ever been discovered in this section of the state, and until this week none has been captured or killed. As sacred as the albatross to the sailor has been the white quail to the hunter. It is the popular belief that ill luck will be- fall the person who molests one of these birds. George C. Morris, an amateur tax- idermist and collector of birds, did not share in this superstition with the other spor:smen, and when. In n little canyon neer Tropic°, he disenvered n pair of them he fired and brought down one of the birds. It Was a strnnge coincidence and one calculatt d to strengthen the superstition attached to the birds. but in• running to capture the bird he had shot and w hich was not totally disabled he turn«! his ankle and sustained a severe sprain. He secur«1 his bird and. using his gun for a staff, he managed to get into the house of a rancher at the mouth (if the canyon and was by him taken to the station at Tropic°. The plumage of the bird, which he has since mounted, is soft and silken. The form and points of the bird, other than color, are identical with the ordi- nary quail. BIG SUBMARINE BOAT. Craft of. Large Dimennions fa to De Constructed by the rem\ GoversimiaL It has just been announced that the construction is to be undertaken at Paris of n submarine boat, the dimen- sions of which will surpass that of all other submarine boats built or build- ing in France. The construction of the beat A.11 he begun tl.is year. Her displacement when submerged will be 350 tons, as compared with`the 266 tons of the Gustave Zede. Which heretofore has Gen the largest subma- rine boat. She will be 49 rasters long, 41-5 meters broad, and will have a draught of 2% meters. She will have a single screw and four torpedo tubes and will cost £50,000. The problem of a craft of this cate- gory,.it is claimed, has definitely been salved by submarine boats when re- garded as purely 'defensive. The new submarine boat will ! be able to attack an enemy's ports. mild will also be able to cruise on commercial routes. It is expected that the new boat will be built in two years. PRAISES SIBERIAN LINE. Lieutenant G I Mlles Declare* Rusnia's Great Rediway is Equal to American Systems. Lieut. Gen. Miles has, declined to discuss military matters, but praise -3 the Irene -Siberian .railway.

The train he traveled on, was only a ew hours late after ts-jounrey of- :it; ,days. In discussing the United States' island possessions. Gen. Miles said that Guam was an excellent and useful possession, but i will require con- siderable expenditure of money be- fore it will possess a good harbor. TEACHERS' COLLEGE.

P., Oakville, Ind., writes, \For ten yeare I was confined to my bed with disease of my kidneys. It was so severe that I could not more part of the time. I consulted the very best medical skill available, but could get no relief until Foley's Kidney Cure was recommended to me. It has been a Godsend to me.\ For sale by L. C. Wil- son.
