A NEW MASTERSON STORY
Kid McCoy's Manager Made q Few Indis-
Greet Remarks Which Necessi-
tated q Quick Trip to
the East.

The Butte friends and acuuaintances
of the noted Bat Masterson will be in
terested in a new story concerning him
which comes from Denver. Recently
Ben. H. Benton, a sporting promoter
who is more or less celebrated went to
Denver as manager of Kid Mccoy to
arrange another match between Mccoy
and Sharkey to take place in Denver.
Masterson is manager of one of the
boxing clubs there and wanted to get
the match, but it appears that Benton
took a dislike to Masterson's physical
outlines and with characteristic courage
wrote letter to Tom O. Rourke, man
ager for Sharkey. In this epistle Ben
ton assured O'Rourke that Masterson
mad no money, and it would be bad
JUDGMENT to send Sharkey to fight at
Masterson's club.
1t SO happened that O'Rourke and
Masterson are very good friends, and
the former Immediately telegra pied to
MasterSon the substance of Benton'S
remarks. oRourke also promised to
mail Benton's letter to Masterson.
When the Denver man learned what
Benton had said the former went to
MS armory and, selecting a long weapon
with newly notched handle, he went to
the hotel where Benton sojourned. The
latter was not at home, SO Masterson
walked to the desk and remarked in
tone of voice which everybody heard:
Il expect letter in a few days. I
am going to place that letter on this
desk. and then l will make a fellow
named Benton east every word of it."
When Benton returned and heard of
the rude remarks, he said he objected
to stationery as a diet, and that any
way It was much more pleasanter in
the East.
Therefore he was not present when
Masterson laid the letter on the hotel
desk

Saturday night Don Zalki. a familiar
character in the lower part of town,
was engaged in making his supply of

Don had taken off his vest and laid
it down on table in a rear room of
his house in East Galena street. 1t was
hot work, and the less clothes he had
on the better he could make the
tamales. so he peeled" down to I'M

MARKING THE BOUNDARY

We are glad to mention to our patrons
this week a number of attractive stories
that have recently been added to our
collection. The majority of these books
are designed primarily for young people.
and hence this list will be a kind of sup
plement to the list of standard Juvenile
books published two weeks ago. The
books for adults that are considered here
will be mentioned at the close of the ar
ticle.
We will first speak of book of more
than ordinary interest, inasmuch as It is
based on an important matter in the
history of our own state. Marking the
Boundary" by Edward Everett Billings,
is the story OF the experiences of two
boys who in the capacities of second and
third assistant bug catchers, accompa-
MED the expedition which ran the lines
from the Dakota boundary to the base
of the Rocky mountains in 1874.
When Boston Braved the King by
William E. Barton, is one OF the best
tales we have read of the events just
preceding the Revolution. 1t is con-
fined mainly to events connected with
the tea party, and while its many local
illusions make It of special interest to one
who has some familiarity with the Hub
it is so carefully written as to appeal
also to the general reader.

The two men team tournament games,
rolled last night at Woods Hall, were
good and interested a very large crowd
of enthusiasts. There was not as much
bright rolling as was expected, but Buch-
tenkirk and Duke got on excellent when
they tied the record of 434. Duke needed
a strike to beat this record by one pin
and he got but 8 of the bunch.
The first series drew Naugle Col
out against Buchtenkirk and Duke.
The three games were rolled and 1t was
in the last and deciding one that the
latter pair tied the record. They won
out easily by 9S pins. Heye and Tasch
were on hand and opened in the second
series against Clarke and Perlmutter.
Clarke and Perlmutter were up against
poor luck and a strong team, a combina-
ton of circumstances that led to their
defeat in two games straight. Hanley
and Fuessel brought down a bundle of
Union Hill science and a little luck at
times and introduced the lot into a se-
ries in which Clarke and Perlmutter were
trying to do business Two games gave
the series to Hanley and Fuessel. Clarke
lost the series. The scores
