OLD MAN M'OANIElS.
He Was One of the First Locators in Any
did District.

Did District.
Missoula, May 22.-Old-timers i'm Ana
conda will remember the Mechanics
that used To be the only
place In the Copper City where a man
could get a quare meal, and they will
appreciate the following tale from the
Libby News that shows that Mac" has
not changed his habits during his trip
up north. His summer sojourns away
from Anaconda do not appear to have
made him any different from what he
was when he dished up chuck In
fonda The story that the News tells
Is as follows:
As the summer weather comes on
many inquiries are heard as to the pres
emf whereabouts and probable advent of
Old Man McDaniels. as he is Familiarity
called by his friends. This is X. T.. Me-
Daniels of Anaconda, and he was one of
the first locators i'm the gold district be-
tween Fisher and Libby. For that mat
ter, he might as well be called one Of
the first locators in any old district, az
he is a veteran OF the Mexican war, or
the war of 1872, and has been locating
claims ever since. He located an ex-
tension of the first restaurant in Ana
c0nda and has made that place head
quarters ever since. but makes occa-
sional sortics against outside mining dis
tricts. 1t has been his habit to visit
Libby every summer and he always gets
a warm welcome, as he has an mex
haustible fund of good stories. He is far
and away the best fish liar In the dis
trict, though Jim Grant used to run
him a close second in the days when he
war game warden Of F1athead county,
and got his venison without the trouble
of shooting Vt.
when Mechanics first Invaded Libby
the fishing was fine and his success in
capturing the finny tribe stimulated his
imagination to a wonderful extent. His
favorite story was that of finding a
beautiful hole for fish on the head Of
Libby creek. He described ii with such
a wealth of detail that you could count
the spots on the larger trout, lazily fam
ming themselves with their fins under
the shadow of the rocks at the bottom
of the pool. soon growing tired OF mere
contemplation of these beauties of ma
ture at "A distance, he captured a snap
ping grasshoppper and attached him TO
"A hook. which was eagerly swallowed
by "A greedy trout the moment il touch-
ed the surface of the water. Detaching
his prey from the hook. McDaniels found
tina the ~grasshopper had not been ma
terially injured, so the performance
was repeated. And you can call me "a
liar, gentlemen" said Old Man McDan-
lals. in concluding this story. IF l didn't
catch a. fish with that grasshopper, and
| would have caught all there were in
the hole, but after taking the 43d fish
off the hook, the hopper got OFF the barb
and flew away" Mac is always welcome
In Libby, and when he comes in this
year he will probably bring an entirely
new outfit of yarns
