CHASTITY Discovery In Montana Re-
veals an Old Tragedy.
BONES OF MAN AND BEAR
A DEATH STRUGGLE OF TWEEN
TY YEARS AGO.
Idaho Woman Who Had the Nerve
to Pull a Tooth-Thres Tall Men
at Boise-Shower of Meteors Seen
at Missoula Sheepherders De-
mand Higher Wages.

Anaconda Standard: Bones-the
winter SHOWS and summer suns; bones
the bones of a bear, CHASTITY in their
whiteness; an old rifle, whose pattern
has not been in use for more than 20
years. These things tell, as no eye
witness could relate it, the story of
terrible tragedy which occurred many,
many years ago. The bones still lie
upon the mountain top, while the rife
is in the possession of man who lives
at or near Stuart.
John Watson and Claude Hensley of
Stuart went out on hunting trip a
week or so ago. Their chase carried
them far from the habitation of man.
During their search for game their
Wanderings led them to a point in the
mountains where Jerry creek has its
source; the spot is about 10 miles from
Gregson Springs. The track of a deer
led them into a clump Of quaking asp
trees. In this thicket the bleaching
bones of a man and a bear were found.
The human skeleton was that of
man of large stature; the bones of the
animal We're those of a huge bear.
Near by lay a Henry rifle, rust eaten
and partially buried beneath the ac-
cumulating soil of years. This silent
array tells a story which no man, ex-
perienced in mountaineerin can mis-
conceive. The terrible battle for
supremacy between the man and the
ferocious animal sprang up before the
eyes of Hershey and Watson as plainly
as though it were being enacted in
their very presence.
Hensley and Watson brought in the
rife with them, but left the skeletons
where they lay. Inquiry about the
streets yesterday developed the identity
of no man who disappeared in that
region. The fact that the rifle is of the
Henry pattern is, in itself evidence
that the tragedy on the mountain
must needs have occurred many years
ago; the Henry rife has not been in
use for somewhat more than 20 years.

tense suffering. The immediate cause
OF his death was pneumonia, but he
was a sufferer also from heart dis
ease, superinduced, it is supposed, by
grief for the loss of a loved daughter,
Miss Clara Leonard, whose sudden
death was chronicled some months
ago. Since that sad event, the aged
rather has seemed to droop gradually,
and death, when it came, was welcomed
as deliverer from earthly troubles.
The deceased was born in Oswego,
N. Y, Sept. II, 1920. In 1914 he joined
the Mormon church and came west to
Nauvoo, where he was called upon to
bear the trials and prosecutions that
preceded the move west to Utah. He
was one of the few who knew Joseph
and Hyrum Smith personally. In 1S49
Mr.. Leonard settled in Pennington,
but three years later he started on q
mission to India in company with A.
NJ. Musser, N. V. Jones and others.
He leaves six daughters and two
sons, one Of whom is now on a mission
in Samoa. A release from his labors
has been sent to this son, but he Will
not reach home for some two months.
Funeral services will be held on
Thursday and Friday next. The day
and hour will depend upon the arrival
here of the immediate relatives of the
deceased. His wife, who resides in
Cardston, Can, has been notified by
wire and is on her way here.

After number of consultations be-
tween the city of Laramie and the di-
rectors of the light company an agree
ment has nearly been completed for a
new contract for five years without
an exclusive franchise. The terms of
the contract will call for the putting
in by the light company of an arc
light plant.
Town Councilman David Graham,
owner and proprietor of the Grand
Central hotel and a heavy property
owner of Casper, has had some cor
respondence on the feasibility of erect
ing an electric light plant in his hotel,
and has wired for an electrician to
come to Casper 1t is understood Mr..
Graham will endeavor to secure a
charter from the town, and besides
lighting his own hotel, will extend the
plant as widely as the demand will
warrant. Mr.. Graham will meet with
some encouragement in his proposed
enterprise.

Clark came in from his ranch last
night and reports a little daughter OF
Mr.. c. r. Todds as having made

ing horses about 13 miles up the river,
near the foot of Coal mountain, when
she came upon green painted wooden
box about the size of tool chest,
filed with clothing of all description,
mems, ladies' and children's underwear
and hosiery. The goods We're new, or
had been when placed in the box, and
locked, perhaps from one to three
years ago. The box had been buried
about 16 inches, and evidently just be-
fore the last snow some person had
removed the dirt, and, lifting the lid,
had taken from the center of the box
what the imprint of the damp and mil
dewed clothing showed to be a box or
package about ten inches square, leav-

BOARD Of PUBLIC WORKS,
STREET PAVING TAX REFUND
NEARING A FOCUS.
Defects in the East Second South
Street Sewer Remedied at a Cost
of Only $4,000 and City Engi-
neer's Final Estimate Approved.

The board of public works had two
important matters under consideration
yesterday. The first part of the meet
ing was given over to a conference
with the city councils finance commit
tee upon the subject of the refund of
the excess of street paving tax. a few
weeks ago the city attorney reported
that the plaintiffs in the action brought
against the city had proposed to remit
the legal interest claimed if the city
would accept, without delay, the terms
of the compromise, and City Attorney
Mckay recommended an acceptance of
the proffer to settle the paving tax
claims. The matter is now in the
hands of the finance committee and
the board of public works, after having
passed through the city engineers Of
fee, which computed and checked the
sums claimed by the plaintiff. City En-
gineer Kelsey reported the sum of
S7.252. So due to So abutting property
owners on Main street and First and
Second South, who sued the city for
the excess of the street paving tax col
lected over the actual cost. The sum
of s., 252 50 was reported as the amount
due. provided that So l16. 30, the sum
paid to the Culmer-J Jennings Paving
company in excess of the city en-
gineer'S estimates under the contract
was first deducted. The actual excess
Of street paving tax aggregated over
500 1000, but about 1000 of this amount
is outlawed, because many property
owners failed to join with the Brig
ham Young Trust company and others
in the suit against the city. However.
only the claims of the plaintiffs, ag-
gregating $7,252.35, according to the
city engineers calculations, are in is
sue, and after giving the matter due
consideration, the board and the
finance committee decided to recon-
mend to the council this evening the
acceptance Of the proposition to com
promise on the basis of the city en-
gineer's calculations and in harmony
with the city attorneys recommended

Messrs. Bancroft, Eccles and Reeves
of the Oregon Short Line returned yes
terday from their trip to Chicago and
ST. Paul, where they have been for
some time in consultation with officials
OF the Northern Pacific and the Great
Northern roads concerning traffic mat
ters. It is not denied that the purpose
OF these conferences was to facilitate
traffic arrangements between the
roads by which Idaho products and
freight from other states can be sent
over the northern lines and also to
admit of ore and other shipments from
the north to this city over the Short
Line, but Mr.. Bancroft said yesterday
afternoon that nothing definite had
been done
Mr.. Eccles declared that there was
nothing to announce at the present
time. and it is very likely that no
tangible agreement has as yet been
erected, but that something viii be
done seems to be quite certain at this
time
Mr.. E,ccles believes that st. Paul and
minnesota ought to profit from the ad-
unonal facilities which the Short Line
could give if there was q traffic ar
ranSement at favorable rates. He
thinks that Idaho's wool. fruit and
wheat could be sent up in that direc-
ton over his line to the mutual ad-
vantage Of all concerned In exchange
Tor this traffic the Short Line would
get northern business and ali would be
made happy
But, as stated. there is nothing
agreed upon as yet

IF'rom The Heralds Correspondence
Provo, Nov 22.-Sheriff Storrs went
to Salem today to investigate the
trouble which occurred there on Fri
day between James Stone and Hyrum
Davis two young men of good parent
age. Several young men of the town
were on a spree and having what they
designated as glorious time" A
fight was precipitated somehow be-
tween young man named Coward
and Ed Underwood. Davis took q
hand and was interfered with by
Stone, VINO pulled him away t1ol44 t.
"scrappers." This angered Davis and
he made an effort to get knife, with
which he stated he would do up Stone.
He failed in this, but succeeded in
getting an AK, with which he struck
Stone a blow on the head, ma5hins
his skull and rendering him insensible.
A bystander tried to ward Off the blow
with his hand, but only turned it
slightly, so the side OF the ak struck
Stone, instead of the sharp edge. The
blow, however, came near killing Stone
and it is thought that he is not yet
out of danger Although this affair
happened last Friday, the officers were
not advised until today, despite the
fact that Salem is not without officers
of the law.
