Sir 1 beg to say a good many constituents have become anxious to learn when the isolated tract act, public No. 18tt. of which I secured the passage at ilia last aesslon.

In order to- be able to answer such Inquiries, I shall esteem It a personal tavor If you will advise ma when such Instructions will be sent out to tha vera I land offices In this congressional district, aa all the lands, I believe, effected by the act, are within this district.

That word "recognlied" In the executive order caused some trouble and a good deal of worry and It might have led to very serious complications In volving tha legitimacy of tha issue of any such marriages as well a tha tltla to property. About tha middle "of last May the daugh ter of Judge Stephens of Panama was mar ried .to , a young American there by a Protestant minister residing In the ono. The affair was chronicled In the society re ports and everything was lovely until shortly after the bridal party had left for the United States. Suddenly one morning Judge Stephens had a thought. It was not a pleasant one. He was struck with the recollection that the old laws of the Re public of Panama prevail In the xone where not otherwise specifically provided for. Then tha judge remembered that under the old law of the Republic of Panama, which had been brought down from the days when tha government of Colombia was paramount, the Roman Catholic church Is the only "recognised" church In that coun try. Although the weather was hot tlio Judge had a chill. The daughter and aon-In-law had sailed away and It was Impos sible to have the ceremony repeated by a minister of the '"recognised" church. The judge got busy. He sent a long message by wire to the president and ha followed It up with a letter explaining the situa tion and suggesting a change in the execu tive order. The president saw the point at once and he did not hesitate to comply with the Judge's suggestion. With com mendable haste he caused to be prepared a new marriage regulation, which was promptly transmitted to the governor of the xone, which empowers any minister of any church or any Judicial officer to cele brate marrlay-s on the Isthmus. The execu tive order aJso validates all marriages which hav been performed by Protestant ministers since the control ' of the canal rone panned to the United Stages. It Is understood a large number of mar riages which have taken place within the xone within the last two years are affected by the executive order. ew Naturalisation Law at Work. The new naturalization law went Into effect on September 2 last. .Under that law naturalisations of foreign born would be citizens of the United States were prac tically suspended until December 29. From that time on records have been kept here In Washington of all the Immigrants who de sired to become citizens of this country and no one can be naturalized until his pe tition is passed upon by tha federal author ities. The process of creating an American citi zen today Is a somewhat complicated one. The applicant must declare his intention, apply for citizenship In a court of com petent Jurisdiction and all the papers must be submitted to the bureau of Immigration and naturalization In the department of commerce and labor upon regularly pre scribed form and three monfhg later, pro vided he uas lived five years In the United States, toe applicant must appear In court and satisfy the court officers that he has compiled with all the requirements of the new uw. Should objection be filed against his application he must defend his rights a-t establish the fact that he Is entitled 'jo the benefits of the protection of the American flag. The new law has been In effect practically six months. Its provisions are not fully understood yet by the Immigrants gener ally, although they are rapidly "catching on." Since January 1 the average number ot declarations of Intentions to become American citizens has been approximately 10,000 per month. Twenty-five hundred pe titions for citizenship papers have also been recorded each month since the first ot January and In that period final naturalr lsation papers to the number of 1.000 per month have been issued. This does not be gin to approach the number of Immigrants which have arrived In the various parts of the United States monthly In recent years, but the figures tndicate a very strong desire on ths part of Immigrants to acquire the rlghta of Amerclan citizenship and it Is believed that as soon aa tha law is thor oughly understood and that aft the officials become perfected In the details of tha stat ute the number of naturalizations will very materially Increase. Up to tha present time It Is asserted the new act has been operated with very little friction. Court officers everywhere have shown a disposition to do everything In their power towards perfecting the ma chinery of naturalization and It Is the gen eral belief that the problem has been solved end that hereafter Uncle Sam will hsve a complete and perfect record of every foreign born resident who aspires to be come 4 citizen of this great republic. Bell Foarch Project Opening. Township plats have been Issued and tha secretary- of the Interior has given no tice that water will be furnished from the Belle Fourche Irrigation project.

Theplais ara on file in tha local land office at Rapid City, 8. D. The size of the farm unit has been fixed at approximately 80 acres, varying slightly In soma cases on account of topography and other conditions, except In the vicinity of the townslte, where tha size of the farm unit will be about 40 acres. The i limit for water right application for lands In private ownership la 160 acres for each land owner. The building charge for the Irrigation system Is 130 per acre, payable In not more'Utaq tan nor less than five annual Installments. Operation and main tenance charges for the sesson ot 19CS, and until further' notice, will be 40 cents per acre of Irrigable land, the first Install ment of tS to per acre being payable on or before December 1. 19u8, at the local land ofTIca at Rapid City. As soon as data is available the charges for operation and maintenance will be fixed In proportion to the amount of water used, with a minimum charge per acre of Ir- rlgsbl Isnd, whether water ta use or not. Tha T'nlted State will operate and main tain the storsr and diversion dams and main headworka, the main canals and main laterals, the cost thereof to be In cluded in the operation and maintenance charge above stated. The sub-lateral, constituting the remainder ot tha distribu tion system, are to be maintained by tha water users to be served therefrom, at their expense, under regulations to ba ap proved by the secretary ot the Interior. Wall Rnat Device Needed. During the last thirty years paragraphs have appeared In country weeklies, patent Insldes, and even In mora pretentious pub lications to the effect that the govern ment has a standing reward offered of a vast sum of money snywhere from 1100,000 to $100.000,000 which Is to be given to the msn who will discover perpetual motion. The patent office la filled with models of mschlncs designed to run without power. Of course there Is no reward outatsndlng for perpetual motion, and equally, of course, no one hss ever discovered a method of creating power without energy. Not Is It likely that any such discovery will ever be made. But If Inventors who have been chasing the Ignis fntuus of per petual motion will devote their energies and brains to the construction of soma practical device for grabbing off mall bags by fast moving trains there Is a fortune In sight for them. The present method Is to place a mall sack suspended from the arm of tha post. which Is caught by a hook protruding from tha side of the car. This portion of the work Is fairly satisfactorily performed, but when It come to delivering tha sack at a station from a fast moving train tha trouble begins. Sometime the lack lands In the ditch; at others the suction from beneath the car I so great that the pouch or bag la drawn under and de stroyed by the wheels. For years the second assistant postmaster general has been trying to get a bettar method, es pecially of delivering, and Mr. McCleary, the present second assistant, asserts there Is a comfortable fortune In eight for the man who has brains enougli to Invent device which will do the work. O save Ornnire for Profit. The Atchison, Topeka A Santa Fe Is giv ing preference to tha use of osage orange fence posts along Its right-of-way. It I difficult to secure sufficient supply and thu company la drawing heavily on the hedges and wind-breaks belonging to the farmers In Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas. The Com pany has shipped such posts u far west as New Mexico and Is using them In prefer ence to the native juniper of the west, al though a large supply of the junipers !a available at cheaper prices. Among farm ers also throughout the middle west osage orange forests are coming more and more Into favor. This large use and Increasing demand will stimulate the growing of the osage orange where conditions are aultabla. and will also resist in better knowledge aa to Its lasting power under difficult conditions. It Is already known to be one of the most durable of timbers. Its natural range ex tends from tha Arkansas rlvr to southern Texas. Cultivation ha spread It much more widely, so that It Is grown as far west a Colorado and New Mexico, and eastward to Massachusetts; but It Is doubt fill If It will be commercially profitable In the northern part of Nebraska, Iowa , and Illinois on account of the severe winters. The osage orange adapts Itself to a va riety of loll and cltmetto conditions. It will endure a great amount of neglect, and It rarely succumbs to drouth. It ability to withstand aridity make It one of the most desirable tree for planting In the middle West. Although It Is a tree of only small to medium size, with a tendency to form crooked trunk, 1 1 furnishes a relatively large amount of ftnc post material, since It Is extremely strong and can be used to a smaller dimension than many other specie. There Is always a good demand for even tha moat crooked osage orange posts and the wood Is largely used by farmers for stake material in short lengths. This allows almost complete utilization of the tree, an Important matter In the prairie region, where timber ha to compete with agricul tural crops for profitable use of the land. Survey of Rocky Honatalu fonl Field. The demand for information regarding the coal lands of the western states both by the government and the public at large, has been so pressing that the United States geological survey has undertaken to devoto a large amount of its appropriation during the coming fiscal year to their Investiga tion. This work Is under the general direc tion of M. R. Campbell. In Wyoming the coal fields are of great extent and value at the present time, but may be of even greater value when they shall be more fully developed. It Is planned to put six parties Into tha coal fields of this state. NEW HOPE FOR T. II. C, A. HUD over on therr sides, rift-en Blsda perpetrates.

FORECAST OF THE WEATHER Mora Time Gives Impetus. Tha decision to extend tha time for the close of the Toung Men's Christian asso ciation campaign has given new heart to the workers. The young men had said repeatedly the small percentage of active workers on their team made It Impossible for them to secure the amount they set out for by July 3, and they now feel that victory Is not only possible, but assured. The boys have Indicated their Increased Interest by securing more Individual sub scriptions since Saturday noon than on any day since the canvass started. EX F. Den nlson, boys' secretary,, said yesterday, the boys would have a total of about 11,800 tomorrow and probably more. The rivalry among the teams has spread to the boys, where It has become even keener than among the team of the young men' committee. Captain Harry A. Stone of- the yaung men's committee, was handed a subscrip tion for $50 by a nurse at the churchwhlth he attended yesterday morning. Tha woman approached him after the servtoe and said she did not know how the sub scriptions were made, but wanted to do something. She added that she could not do much and when she offered to give S.V) It was about five times a much as Mr. Stone thought she would be Inclined to contribute on the salary aha would be receiving. ' Rally Sons ta Popular, The rally song of the workers, sung to the air of America, waa heard at the meet ing for men In the association building yesterday afternoon and In some churches. Many referencea to the canvass were made In pulpits Sunday. Members of leading congregations urged assistants In the movement and called on their people to see to It that an agency assisting every church would not ba allowed to fall In the effort being made to 'wipe out the debt of $90,000. The speaker at the meeting for men held In the association building was "Kid" Wedge, a former prize fighter, who was cenverted. He had a large audience and delivered an address that was full of thoughts that went home to tha hearts of the young men who heard 'him. He spoke ot his early life and ot what he is able to do now for the man who Is "down and out." A special musical service was given by the choir of Dletz Memorial church, under the direction of E. H.
