Recently Agent Reynolds of the Crow Agency advised the board of commis- sioners that he was prepared to make a report and invited the board to meet with him at the agency on Wednesday of last week. Accordingly the board met with Mr. Reynolds as re- quested and the matter of the construction of the bridge was thoroughly gone over. The meet- ing resulted in the commissioners being able to announce that the department of ttie interior stands ready to appropriate $10,000 to- ward the construction of a bridge across the Big Horn river pro- viding that the bridge is located at Two Leggin, believing that a bridge at this point would be of greater advantage to the reserva- tion than at any other, as it is the only logical outlet to that splendid tract of land that is al- ready under ditch. The ; commissioners of Yellow- stone county are also willing to grant an appropriation for the construction of the bridge at this point but the position of the Rosebud . commissioners on the matter is uncertain. A joint meeting of the commissioners of the two counties will be held in the near future to determine the question. If the Rosebud com- missioners will make an appro- priation the bridge is assuied. This question of a bridge is of great importance to this com- munity, to the reservation and also to Rosebud county. Putting in a bridge at Two Leggin means the tilling of every foot of the land in the valley of the Big Horn on the reservation side that is now under ditch. It means that the dead Indian allotments as they are put on the market will be bought like hot cakes and that the tax income to Rosebud county will be greatly increased. It means the opening of traffic across one of the most trouble- some streams in the state. We hope the commissioners of Rose- bud county will see their way clear to grant the appropriation and that the bridge may be built at once. I 1st “Ir property with The Mitchell Peal Estate kgency. ACROSS CONTI- NENT ON WAGE Taylors Will go From Couer d' Alene, Idaho, to New York City in 110 Days Yesterday morning a gentle- man and lady arrived here en route from Cbner d'Alene, Idaho, to New York City, making the trip on horseback. The condi- tions of the journey are as fol- lows: The parties are allowed an outfit of two horses equiped for the trip. Leaving Couer d'Alene without money they are to ride to New York, keeping themselves in horses and defray- ing all expenses in 110 days ----on a wager of $1000. Yesterday was the 28th day out and they figure they have made 800 miles. Mr. Taylor has changed horses four times but Mrs. Taylor was riding the horse she started with but as she said \It's about ready to trade.\ Mrs. Taylor said despite the fact that she had not been accustom- ed to riding and that they had al- ready encountered s.)me hard ships she was enjoying the ex- perience immensely. To bear their expenses they are selling their pictures taken the morning they started on their long jour- ney. They are keeping a diary ex- pecting futurely to write a book describing their experience while crossing the continent. When asked if they expected to remain in the east Mrs. Taylor replied, \Oh no, we like the west and without doubt shall return and settle on a ranch.\ Mr. Taylor crossed the conti- nent four years ago on horse back going from Cleveland,Ohio,: to 'Frisco in 106 days. Billings Has New School Prof. L T. Eaton, educational director of the christian school that is being established in Bill- ings was in Hardin Sunday the guest of Mr. and Mrs. A. P. MacDonald.

The science hall and four of the domitorys will soon be completed and ready for use. As the school is undenominational it should have a good foowing. Death of Governor Johnson Governor John A.

Reports of var- ious committees were heard and several new committees were ap pointed. The report of the meet- ing is as follows: Special Meeting, Sept. 20, '09. Minutes of last regular meet- ing read and approved. On motion duly made and car- ried the committee on cemetery site was discharged and J. W, Johnston and G. F. Burla were named as a committee to loQk up a suitable site and report same together with plans for forming a cemetery association at the next regular meeting. On motion W. J. Scott and Ew , A. Howell were named as com- mittee on mail route from Har- din to Foster. The committee on fire protec- tion was instructed to have a demonstration of the chemical engine made and if satisfactory to report the same to the club together with price. On motion G. F. Burla and J. W. Scott were instructed to have sage brush removed from public park. On motion the chair was in- structed to name a committee of three to reauest school trustees to build a side walk to school house.

Gladden was named on the advertising com- mittee in place of E. H. Rathbone. On moticst. the meeting ad- journed. A. L. MITCHELL, Secy. The matter of changing the Foster stage line is one of im- portance to Hardin people and should have the support of every- one. Foster being 14 miles from here and 18 miles from Custer the business tide naturally turns this way. To get mail from Fos- ter however, takes from two to four days which works out a great inconvience in business. Then too, the country between here and Foster is more thickly settled than beyond Foster and if the route is changed many more people will enjoy stage service than at peesent. In fact conditions generally will be bet- tered if the change can be brought about. Peed Wheat.

Your Patronage Solicited f •••••\ ..*•••• Eagles Will Organize A number of the Hardin boys are growing_enthuastic over the effort that is being put forth to organize an Eagle aerie at this place. A paper is being circu- lated by John Burke, who is a member of the order, to ascer- • tain if the required number of • names can be secured to make r the organization possible. • The Eagle lodge is rapidly be- coming one of the strongest lodges in the west, and every- where its work as an order has met with the approval of the public. The organization of this lodge here would not only mean the affording of a portection to many who do not enjoy such protection now but it would create a social circle which is sure to be enjoyed by all members. Let everyone boost and help a good thing along. Puts in Feed Mill J. W.

Theodore Roosevelt, now president of the United States, but within n few months to become a private citizen, may write the \great American play.\ This announcement was recently made at Washington by no less an authority than the president himself. He said It laughingly, but there was a ring of conviction in his tone—a note almost jubilant and challenging. The president had as callers the oth- er morning Frederick Thompson of New 'fork, the producer of a new play In Washington. and his wife. Mr. Roosevelt and his family and guests occupied a box on the first night and applauded vigorously. When Mr. Thompson came abreast of him to shake the presidential hand Mr. Roose- velt congratulated him on the produc- tion. \I hope you will give us many more of that kind,\ Ite said. \I recall an- other that you staged, which I think was one of the best plays of its de- scription I have ever seen.\ Mr. Thompson thanked the president and then said smilingly: \I hope I may some day soon have the privilege of staging the long look 0 ed for 'great American play,' and hope, furthermore, that the author wilt be Theodore Roosevelt.\ The president chuckled, releasing the Family Trade 0 a Specialty... • ff 3 Iff It el ZiSata la VI then [neat manager s hand.

Washington society has achierod the Impossible in that no one with preten- tious to inner knowledge of the cor- rect thing will give a dinner party which lasts more than an hour and a half from the moment the cocktails are taken until the men join tiw wo- men in the drawing room. One hour and three-quarters is the time allotted even to a White House dinner, and the guests of the president, after chatting with the women for fifteen minutes, are expected to depart. A big relief this from the old dinner, when folks sat at table from 8 until 11 and then smoked and spun yarns for two hour. more. Lobsters For the roor. \The Maine lobster is increasing so fast \ said Commissioner of Fisheries James A. bonohne the other day at Porttand. Me., \that in a few years . broil,t1 xvill be as common on the poor ninit's table as on the bill of fare of the wealthy. This will apply 1 1 t to Maine, but to Boston, New York and : , ther markets which Maine glipitlifqg with lobsters. In three or . Toiir years I expect to see the retail pH/ e of lobsters just about half what it Is now.\
