HE WAS ONLY A BOY.
rha story Of the Last Killing by tn
TreacherOus Cheyennes.

Tn. story Of the Last Killing by the
Treacherous Cheyennes.
Col. c. D. Curtis yesterday received let
tar from S. L. Busby, the government
farmer at the Cheyenne agency, giving the
story of the killing of Hugh Boyle. Mr..
Busby says: "The boy went out to hunt
some mich cows and two Indians named
Head Chief and Young Mule met him five
miles above the agency on Lame Deer
creek and deliberately shot and killed him
without provocation or cause. Head Chief
made confession to American Horse be-
fore the body was found. and implicated
Young Mule. They are both at large, but
I think they will be captured in a day OF
two.
1--WE found the body yesterday, the 9th.
Major Cooper the special agent in charge
here, is doing all in his power to hunt down
the guilty parties, and if they are not exc
cuted when found, or if the Indians tail to
give them up, there will certainly be war.
The people will not stand this thing any
longer"
The killing of Boyle, who was scarcely
more than Is, is one of the results Col.
Curtis predicted in his report to Gov.
Toole, unless the Cheyennes were disarmed.
In his report Col. Curtis said the only way
to keep the Cheyennes quiet was to first
disarm them, then keep them on the reser-
walton and feed them. This report Gov.
Toole sent with his endorsement to the in
terror department, but no attention was
paid to it, and Boyle's murder is one of the
results,

He Caught Himself in Time.

John Chrisgobeck, who is employed on
the building now in course of construction
between the Granite and Bailey blocks,
had narrow escape yesterday afternoon
from falling off the third story onto the
sidewalk. A heavy piece of cut sandstone
was being hoisted by means of a derrick
from the walk in front of the building.
When within about foot of where it was
to be laid on the third floor Chrisgobeck
put out his foot to keep the stone from
striking. just then the rope running through
the pulley block broke and the stone crashed
to the sidewalk splitting some heavy boards
and breaking into several pieces. Chrisgo-
beck lost his balance as the stone fell, but
caught with both hands the projecting
stone facing already i. place. His fellow
workmen Immediately pulled hir up from
his perilous position. The man was unin-
jured but of course was somewhat startled
The only injury done was the MASKING OF
the cut stone and the breaking of the rope
and some heavy plank.

WHAT AN ADVERTISEMENT SHOULD Be,
ITS USE AND ABUSE.

AS this is intended for the pros
pective purchaser, not for the in
struction of the advertiser, we
shall limit our remarks to a few
questions and answers suitable to
our purpose.
That judicious advertising pays
is fact no longer doubted by the
swide-awake merchant. But what
is judicious advertising?
An advertisement that is not a
statement of plain facts-that
lacks the impress of unvarnished
truth-that borders on the realm
of fiction-such an advertisement
is not only soon detected but as
certainly avoided no matter how
adroitly the advertiser seeks the
ear of the public.
To gain the confidence of the
public, simply to advertise will
not suffice; the merchant must
keep faith with his customers; he
must do what he advertises, and
have what he advertises. Such
advertisements are sought out by
the reader in the hope that it may
contain an announcement of a
special: bargain offered, or to as
certain the price of something he
contemplates purchasing.
We do not pay out our money
for printers ink because it is a
custom-we calculate it's effect,
and estimate the outlay to a pro-
portionate gain.

BUTTE DEMOCRATS.
Preparing to Attend the Convention at
Helena Monday.

Preparing to Attend the Convention at
Helena Monday.
Butte, Sept. 12.-[Standard Service. J.
The Butte delegates will go to the state
democratic convention at Helena, Monday,
with colors flying. Arrangements have been
made with Mayor Dawson to run special
car for the delegates and their democratic
friends. This car will be attached to the
Montana Central train at 7:45 Monday
morning. The party will reach Helena at
II a. M, and will then proceed to paint the
town red. They will carry brass band
with them, either the Boston & Montana
or the Hibernian.
Banners bearing democratic legends are
being made for the use of the delegation.
Tomorrow evening the delegates and
their alternates are expected to meet in
caucus at the court house. There they will
complete arrangements for their departure
Monday morning and will thoroughly Or
ganize the delegation. 1t is yet early in the
campaign, but prominent Butte democrats
are already putting their hands into their
pockets and sparing no means to make an
excellent beginning. The Helena republi-
cans who think that they have just attended
an enthusiastic convention will have to do
all their talking before Monday, for their
is likely to disappear with the
resemblance of the Helena convention.

How Can They Afford It3

That is what the old houses say when
they hear of the prices made by the A. r.
Gates Grocery company, and we can tell
you how they can afford to sell groceries 80
much below other houses. We all know
that any firm doing a credit business will
lose more or less from bad debts. Now, this
firm will give credit to no one. The person
does not live that can get credit for one
dollar in the A. II. Gates Grocery COM
pany's store. BY this way of doing bust
ness they lose nothing and they do not have
to make up that loss by charging more fol
their goods. Now those that want to pay
for those losses can pay the old prices for
their groceries, but the man or woman that
want the value for their money will GER
tainly go to the A. r. Gates Grocery COM
pany and buy their groceries.

HERR BANDMANN'S HOLsTEINS

His Percherons are Nowhere Com pared to
His Fine Cattle.
Herr Daniel E. Bandmann, the Holstein
tragedian and all around rancher, dropped
into Helena last night en- route home to his
Missoula county farm from Wisconsin.
Mr.. Bandmann was not on one of his
famous Shakesperian festivals. but upon a
venture which he says is more remunerative
and of more value to Montana.
The widely known delineator of Shakes
peare and impersonator of DR.. Jekyll and
Mr.. Hyde would have given the petite and
beautiful Louise Baudet, his former lead
ing lady, the horrors if she could have
gazed upon him. Suffice it to say that the
eminent actor was in a box car in company
with seventeen thoroughbred Holstein cows
II have been in this car seven days now,''
said Mr.. Bandmann, land MIXED the COWS
every day myself; what do you think of
thatT' he asked with an air of triumph.
Mr.. Bandmann was happy and hopeful.
He spoke eloquently of the merits of his
COWS and of the quantity of milk each
could give daily, and said they were the
finest that money could buy, and all prize
winners.
Here is Comedia,'' he said, pointing to a
beautiful COW. "She is in the advanced
d Powell, of Syracuse. She is very fine
cow and gives eight gallons of milk daily.
And this one." pointing to another Hol-
stein, sis Aaggie Neptunia. which cost $3.50
and which purchased for Mrs. Lou Cooke,
of Flathead valley. She IS very enter
prising lady and gets a fine cows
Mr.. Bandmann proposes to start an ex-
tensive dairy at his ranch, aud with his new
COWS will have altogether forty Holsteins,
mostly imported. The seventeen which he
passed through with yesterday he purchased
at the La Crosse fair, and all are registered
with the American Holstein association.
They cost an average, he says. of $500 each,
and are of the best blood. The principal
strains are by Neptune, Hiawatha Chief,
Royal Aaggie, Northumberland Prince,
Prince Medium, Netherland Prince, Will.
lam Ill. and Sir Henry Lambert. Two.
thirds of them are prize winners at eastern
fairs.
