Kendall, Montana, July 14. 1903. - 3. BETTER MARKSMEN AX4 Army Officials to Offer a National Trophy and Medals to Soldiers. Arrangements Made to Have the Fleet National Match Held Next Sep- tember—Militiamen to Ms Invited to Participate. Unusual opportunities for the attain- ment of skill in marksmanship by the militiamen and others, as well as sol- diers in the regular army, are offered in the rules govetning the award of a national trophy and medals which were approved to -day by .Secretary Hoot.

Prot Pickering, of Harvard, Pro- ject• a Combine Watch Will Ad- vanre Uwe of Selene*. Prof. Pickering. of the Harvard ob- servztory, is said to be projecting a combination of all the astronomical observatories in the world, so that their combined capital or endowments can be used by all. The aggregate working capital is close to $10,000,000 . and there are enor- mous incomes. Prof. Pickering thinks there is too much money wasted in making observations, and too much needless competition. His plan is to distribute more equitably the work- ing funds and the staffs, as some sta- tions have too many men at work and others too few. Harvard would be custodian of the funds, including Carnegie institute and the National academy, distributing, them to the best advantage for the science. TO BE GIVEN ANOTHER TRIAL. Government Still Undeeided as to the Real Value of the Women 1. !migration Inspectors. The commissioner of immigration has sent to the treasury department a report covering the second 30 days' work of the female inspectors appoint- ed for the purpose of boarding incom- ing vessels to prevent the landing of persons of improper character in the United States. 'Ibis report ts similar . — -to that coveling the first 30 dress of the • • female inspectors' work, and makes .. 1 oai . 1t. evident to the officials that the ends sought to be attained cannot be ac- complished successfully by the detail- ing of women inspectors on the ships. The women will be given another 30 days' trial, after which the president and the secretary of the treasury will decide whether or not their services shall be continued. SELL WIVES TO BUY FOOD.. Famine Prevailing in Mints Driven Husbands to Desperat• Measures. The famine in the province of Kvvang-Si, China, shows no sign of im- provement. In numerous cases the peo- ple have been reduced to such straits that husbands are selling their wives and children to prevent their starving to death, as their purchasers will sup- ply them with food to save their own. lives with the money obtained for them. Sir Henry A. Blake, governor of Hong -Kong, is organizing relief for the sufferers. VIR'1UES OF IVORY. Prescribed a• a Medicine and Made Into a Jelly in Eighteenth Century.

That Member Is Frequently Far mores Eloquent Than the Tongue. There is a wealth of meaning in the simple pressure of the hand. Not in- frequently a woman's nature and breeding may be distinguirLed by the manner it? which she shakes a friend's hand. It may be due to the tact that there -are more nerves bemeen the brain and the hand than tetwesn any other two portions of the bcdy, but true it is that the hand is often more elcquent than -the tongue, a Wash.ng• ton orator is quoted as 'tying, and when a woman once apprec.ates the importance of this sl.e will immedate- ly begin, to stur'.3 the e xpression of the Inncl. One human touch if sym- pathy or grasp of the Land can and frequently does mean more than a volume cf r,orda, and to possess this quality, particularly in a woman, is no light charm and a thing that lies with- in the reach of every woman. Should she not have it naturally she should speedily cultivate expression of the hand. Of course therearecertain hall marks of a refined hand, beauty and texture of skin, cc hiteness of nails all essen- tial; but not half to important as ex- pressie n. Graceful gesture and a touch of (psis+. ryttleatity. -these never lose their charm or power. There Are Others. An English countess has found out that the lord she married is bogus. This looks, says the Chicago Record -Herald, like a pretty strong vindication of.. lot of American girls. * ***O.** * * * *************************************** Club Saloon1 CLINOAN & HAMILTON, Proprietors I 31'KlNLEY AVENUE, KENDALL gars Cedar Brook Bourbon Hunter's Rye WhiSkifi High GrAz TRY OUR F.
