SIX OF A KIND.
Colonel HundIey's Wagon Load OF
Venison.

Col. W B. Hundley and David Blacker
arrived home to-day from weeks hunting
trip in the Sheep Creek country, less than
forty miles north of Helena and not far
from the line of the Montana Central.
Their wagon was loaded with venison. Six
black tails were among the game prizes
won by their trusty rifles. Col. Hundley
is a noted sportsman and almost an unerr-
ing shot The report is that he did most
of the killing and we guess that is about
correct The trophies of the hunt include
three big bucks. The monarch OF these
will tip the scales at 225 pounds, with
royal sntlers. The others are perhaps
fifty pounds lighter. Neighbors to-day
have flocked TO Col. Hundley's to view the
splendid carcsses suspended in his door
yard. Would-be deer slayers are plying
the Colonel for pointers where such splendid
game specimens grow and how he managed
to bring them down. The veteran hunter
is now verging on toward seventy, but
looks no more than fifty. A man to renew
his youth must take lessons of Col. Hend-
ley, and like him divide the seasons be-
tween indoors and the open air, and prac-
tice at times with rod and rifle.

NEWS
From the Daily Herald of November a.
a SAD CASE.
An Anaconda Mother Trying to Re-
clam an Erring Daughter.
Butte Inter MountsiA.l


Mrs. Jennie B. Walker, of Anaconda,
last evening swore out s warrant against
a woman calling herself frankie Barnes,
who keeps a house OF i'll fame. Mrs
Walker charged that her 19 year old
daughter, Ella, was unlawfully detained
in the house. The case is an extremely
sad one, in which a young girl has gone
wrong and turns a deaf ear to those try
ing TO lead her back TO life OF respect
ability. Mrs. Walker, with the aid OF
police officers, last week got her daughter
back to Anaconda and the two returned
Yesterday for the purpose OF getting her
clothes. The girl left her mother again
and the mother had the Barnes woman
arrested in order to ind the girl. Two
cases were brought against her, one for
allowing q minor to frequent a house OF
ilI-fame and the other for abductlng the
girl Both cases are set for hearing before
Judge Newkirk at 9 o'clock tomorrow
morning. c. A. Jones was also arrested foI
completely in the case. He claims to have
acted only as the attorney OF the Barnes
woman. He gave bond for his appearance
and the case against him has not been set
for hearing yet. The mother says her
daughter is but Is years old. The girl
sdmits being 19 and looks all of it. She
has led fast life for some time.
The c. 4 Jones referred to in the above
case has an unenvisble record. He was
formerly, if we are not mistaken IN the
name, a resident of Helena, and during his
soiourn here got himself into bad light
before the community by taking two
Young girls out to the Hot Springs and
getting horse whipped for his pains.

vast temple. These towering walls form q
majestic frame work for the snow capped

JAMES w. WHlTlATCH.
Montana's Original Millionaire Quartz
Miner,

Helenas pioneerl quartz miner, James
W. Whitlatch, after an interval Of several
years, is in town shaking hands with many
old-time acquaintance and friends, and
looking about and admiring the countless
buildings and other improvements that
confront him on all sides. The
camp of the sixties and the mining
metropolis of the eighties are contrasts
that cannot help but provoke from him
expressions of constant and unfeigned
amazement
Mr.. Whitlatch was the first man to ex-
tract from the mines of Montana a million
of money-in fact, it was total Of several
millions that was milled into bullion from
the output of the famous Whitlatch Union
under his ownership and management, and
those several millions were duplicated, so
to speak, after he had disposed of the
property. In the early days Mr.. Whit
latch was connected with the HERALD as
one Of its proprietors and 1t was through
his aid and enterprise that as early as 1867
a newspaper press was operated in Mon
tana by steam power. 1t was Mr.. Whit
latch who erected in Helena the first build
ing exclusively devoted to the publishing
business-a substantial two story frame
structure corner of Broadway and Jack
SOD, on the site now occupied by the Ma
sonic Temple.
Early in his mining career, prospered as
were few in Montana at that time, Mr..
Whitlsch found a life partner in one of the
most accomplished and beautiful young
ladies of Brooklyn, n. Y, and from this
propitious union of man and wife has
come family of four bright boys, one al
ready in business life in New York, another
at school, and a younger pair who with
their mother have visited here the past few
weeks. The HERALD is glad to know that
while James W. claims Brooklyn as his
home, he has interests in mining properties
that hereafter promise to bring him and his
family to Montana more frequently than
during the past decade of years. Welcome
always for Mr.. and Mrs. Whitlatch.

Judge Hunts First Case.

District Judge Hunt heard his first case
this morning in the old Probate court room.
1t was an application by the guardian of
the Rand children. Moses Morris, for de-
cree establishing the manner of disposing
of the estate. The guardian was called
upon to prove that Mrs Rand outlived her
husband. This was successfully estab
lished by several witnesses of the Rand
tragedy, who testified that Mrs. Rand was
alive and conscious after her husband was
dead. In this case the property descends
from husband to wife and from wife to the
children, the deceased having left no will.

Teachers Institute,

10 the teachers and school officers Of
Pennington County South Dakota.
Pursuant to appointment Of the Ter
~ritorial Board OF Education, an insti-
tute for the teachers Of this county will
be held at Rapid City, during the week
commencing Monday, September End,
1889. Teachers are hereby notified to
attend, and all schoels in the county
should postpone SaeN< commencement
until after that tiile. Is
On account of6cpmplaints OF some of
the teachers last fall as to the distance
from town OF the School OF Mines, it is
thought best to hold the day sessions
this fall in the free reading room, on
Main Street on second floor OF L. Morris
& Co.'S store.
A social will be held at the same place
on Monday evening, to which all are in
vited. There will be M or two evening
lectures during the week, due notice OF
which will be given through the daily
papers.
Teachers will be supplied with an ex-
ira number Of the School Herald con-
tanning a review Of the events of the year
to which they arc requested to give some
study, as in all probability questions
will be asked from it.
Prof. W. G. Bower will again conduct
the institute and he will be aided by
able assistants.
Hope no teacher will make the fact
that they have not secured q school an
excuse for non attendance.
Directors who have received applica-
tons from teachers should make their
choice as early as possible, and those
who have not made their selection
would do well to attend the institute
and secure their teacher.
School officers are especially invited to
visit the session when in town and none
should stay away thinking they may be
called upon to take part, unless it be
agreeable for them to do so.
If possible I will obtain permission
from the Territorial Board to hold an
examination at the close OF the session
the Lakota Banking and Investment
Company, held last Tuesday. evening
the following officers were elected: Presi-
dent, V. T. McGillicuddy; Vice President,

institute fee OF one dollar is required OF
each applicant before beginning the cx-
animation. All friends OF education are
cordially invited to attend the day or
evening sessions.
