A Letter From Shoshone. Worland, Wyo., Aug. lHth, 190<i., Editor North western: Tlie “Call of the Wild” always takes possession in the vacation month of J uly, and as life is only valuable for what we get out of it, we packed a suit-case, strapped on kodak and field-glass and boarded the train for the Shoshone country by way of Worland, the pres ent terminus of the Burlington route, to broaden our experience and in cidentally to say we registered for some of Unde Sam’js acres at almost the last historic reservation. It was reported tlje mob was even worse than at Bonesteel, S. I)., con sequently we had our nerve with us at the start, but a woman's will over comes every difficulty. The unpleas ant features of a trip of this charact er did not materialize and here we are, an interested spectator of the most unique cosmopolitan aggregation of humanity it lias ever lieen our good fortune to see. For four days we have listened to the comments, kodaked striking situ ations and picturesque groups and types, as well as points of interest round about, until we wonder if we are not kodak crazy. Sunday was the gala day and among the train specials was one f rom Cody bringing tlje famous WjloJ West Band, uniformed by Buffalo Bill, with ex hibitions of broncho-riding by the cow-boys, and frontier attractions ga lore. Rut with it all the town was comparatively orderly owing no doubt, to the presence of the U. S. marshals and their corpsof deputies. By the way. the members of the Registration Board from Washington and including every U. S. official de tailed here to preserve order during the land excitement, through the kindness of >Ip.jQr Mhepman, Chief Registrar, posed for one of my kodak groups, which was more than any newspaper representative secured for his city paper. «a Worland is located on the banks of the Big Horn river in Big Horn coun ty, said county being 57 by 150 miles, larger than the state of New Jersey. There are great possibilities to my notion in this valley, and as the rail road preceded instead of followed the rush, it will be settled with more ex pedition than other new sections, for this is tjie l;ist qf {.ju; pfimipive West. Of course the opening Qf tile reser vation bringing masses of people from here, there and everywhere into Wyo ming, and as Is always the case the majority came, viewed the country over superficially, knocked it igno rantly and then carried their foolish ness back from whence they came. So the state is in luck after all. It reminds us of the land buyer who comes to Sherman county from a level section and declares it no good, be cause the land was more rolling than the would-be purchaser was familiar with in his part of the country. 4 fopty-mile stage ride to Tlier mopolia. where the lint springs are located, just within the Reservation limits near the Copper Mountain mining district was an experience. I note the expert assaver, Freeman, gives as his opinion that in time the copper deposits will equal the Butte, Montana, finds when properly worked, but the claims alloted by registration are agricultural, not mining lands. The climate here is simply fine and the air good enough to eat. The largest ranch m Wyoming, the Embar Ranche, is near this point and is owned by Col. Torry, the noted POlqnsJ qf the Rough Riders. I found him an interesting character and a very distinguished looking man, He looks every inch a soldier, as Roose velt declared, he was "after one's own heart." And now again my kodak snapped and one of the men that scaled the heights of San Jaun will grace my kodak album. Perhaps none of this may interest you and as my appetite is something prodigious, and my chief thought the last few days, everything is dropped when the dinner call is given. ' The registration period for the opening of the Shoshone Reservation began at Worland J uly lfith and dosed at 6 p. m. on the 31st, with a total registration from all four points of 10,583, and is now a matter of history.

U. R. Welsh, Owner. Jacob Albers, W. F. Mason, Auctioneer. Clerk. Motor Service to Loup City. The St. Paul Republican says: •‘Several months ago the Republican stated that a change would be made in the train service on the Loup City branch whereby a gasoline motor would take care of the passenger business, the freighterew being trans ferred from Loup City to St. Paul. It took the railroad peeple a long time to make good on this prediction but we are now informed upon re liable authority that two motor cars are almost completed in the Grand Island shops for this purpose and will be placed in commission about the loth of September. T. A. Taylor, for many years conductor between St. Paul and Loup City, but who was recently transferred to the Callaway branch, will be returned to this run. Two cars are furnished for the reason that the mechanism is not entirely perfect as yet and frequent repairs are anticipated.” Baptist Church Directory. Every Sunday.

The school savings bank system which has been put in operation in many places in New York State is now declared to be a violation of the banking act. The system was started by J. W. Thiry, who brought the idea from Europe. The plan is to induce children to save their pennies and bring them to their teacher, who! places them in a bank. As the plan ia generally beneficial to‘ the yqupg, it is probably that laws will be amended to admit of its hfmtinuance. For Sal© from the Loijp Valley herd of Poland China Swine One Mile S. E.
