D. D. Walker Of Bielenberg & Walk
er, came in last evening from a point
on the road about two miles below the
city, where he established camp for
the night with 1900 Of the finest bred
cattle in Montana. Mr.. Walker has
just consummated a deal whereby he
has purchased this herd for a price be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 from William
Wallace of New Chicago He is driving
the cattle to the Big Hole ranches,
where they will be put in with the
firms other cattle. Slow progress is
being made on the drive, as there are
many calves with the herd. After
starting from Mr. Wallaces place, ut
New Chicago. the cattle We're first
driven to the Dempsey ranches. where
they received the we'll known Sc brand,
the brand of Belenberg & Walker.
The cattle are Herfords and Short
horns, the breeds that Mr.. Wallace has
been raising for 20 years. The eXcep-
tional price paid for the stock proves
that the policy of breeding only high
class cattle in Montana pays. A stock
man connected with the firm of Bielen-
Der & Walker said last night
One thing this purchase should
show, and that is there is money in
raising good stock. 1t costs no more
to raise blooded stock than scrubs, al
though the first cost of the herd is
greater. The difference in first cost,
however, is speedily wiped out. 1t will
pay stock breeders to gee rid of their
scrubs and breed only first-class cattle.
In this part of the world we have the
finest grass in the world. Everything
is in our favor for making of this part
of Montana one of the greatest cattle
countries in the United States. Eastern
cattle buyers are coming here already
for fine stock. We are getting a start
in the business. Some day l believe
our stock interests will equal in point
of wealth our mineral interests"

MORE TROUBLE Foa JOHN BULL.
VIII Have to Send a Punitive Expedite
to the Afghan Frontier.

III nave TO Senu Il Z unltlEe lApeSIkich
to the Afghan Frontier.
1t does not seem unlikely that England
will soon have another troublesome little
war on her hands in the Afghanistan
frontier region where the Waziris are
becoming very troublesome. Fresh raids
by these restless hill men are reported
constantly, and not satisfied with contln-
ing themselves to cattle-lifting and the
waylaying Of government mail runnH's
and levy escorts, they lately attacked the
political officer of Wano himself, killing
one of his guard. Troops are in pursuit
of this particular band of bandits, but the
marauders will have dispersed, probably
long before the detachment can come up
with them.
June 10 a commissariat kafila with gov
eminent stores was looted near Bunnu.
This raid was not serious. as the camels
were recaptured without loss Of life. But
a subsequent raid, made on June 90.
across the Afghan frontier, was on a
much larger scale and ts expected to re-
suit in further protests from the ameer
to the Indian government.
Late reports state that in the Ihob val
ley toward the end of June a party of
Waziris dismantled the telegraph posts
carried away a considerable quantity of
wire and fired on the telegraph party
which was sent to repair the break Fly
ing columns are said to be held in read-
ness at all the frontier posts to follow up
the bands of marauders wherever they
may appear. But hitherto, with one solt-
tary exception. these military columns
have only had their trouble for their
pains, the active hill men vanishing with
their loot before the soldiers can arrive
upon the scene and it is expected that a
regular punitive expedition will have to
be organized.

CAPT. S. F. BROWNS EXPLOIT.
Daring Deed in the Civil War Recalled
by a Monument.

by a Monument.
IL IS not always best to bury the
hatchet, especially if it Is an historical
one. accordingly, at Gettysburg, the
new statue of Captain stephen F.
bfoWn, which. is part of the monu-
n1ent marking the spot where the 18th
vermont infantry stood on the battle
field. will give it particular prominence.
The reason is that Captain Brown he
roically led his company with a hatcnet
INTO the battle until he Wrested from q
rebel officer sword and pistol
The hatchet in the statue rests near
the captains right foot. The presence
OF the hatchet in any position naturally
suggests inquiry, and that is lust WIN
the Vermonters wanted it there. Every
cemetery guide will know the story of
Captain Brown and his hatchet. Jisi-
tors will tell it to their children and it
will become history.
At the battle of Gettysburg the 18th
Vermont was a part of General Stan
nard's Vermont command. The End
Vermont brigade had been left on out :.
post duty in Virginia until the third
day after the Army of the Potomac
had passed it in pursuit of Lees troops
into Maryland and Pennsylvania Then
the brigade got orders to proceed by
forced marches to join the Army of
the Potomac The latter was also on
forced march, but in six days time the
Vermonters had overtaken the main
body. Just before the first days bat
tie Captain Browns command came up
to well at which was an armed guard
You can't get water here said the
guard. 'Gainst orders
Oh your ORDERS" said Captain
Brown, and then, with all the canteens
of the men, and with only one man to
help him he thrust the guard aside and
filled the canteens. His arrest followed
and he was deprived of his sword.
The history-making battle began with
Captain Brown a prisoner. He begged
Tor chance to rejoin his company
and was allowed to go. He picked up
camp Ratchet and ran to the firing
line, rushed into the fray and, singing
out rebel officer so yards away, pene-
trated the rebel ranks. collared the
oiilcer, wrestling from him his sword
ana pistol, after which he dropped mis-
hatchet, While his men cheered him

word ''skatola." meaning maid and

Three persons may play. The sue
ceSsful bidder becomes the player, the
remaining two his opponents. Should
the player not make 81 the value of
the game is subtracted from his score.
The values of the cards range from
the aces at II to the jacks at . each.
Only 80 cards are used, those below
the seven being discarded. Ten cards
are dealt each player, the remaining
two being the ''skat.'
The most peculiar feature of the
game to an American is the privilege
of the player to choose the style of
play, or game, from ten, called respec-
lively call plays, tourne, solo, grand
in four varieties, nullo in three va-ie-
ties and ramsch. Call plays are rare
~ selected. as being of slight value,
while ranlsch is played when all three
players pass.
In call plays the player takes up the
two "skat" cards. discards two and an
nouncets the trump. In tourne he turns
up one Of the "skat'' cards, which es-
tablishes the trump suit. In solo
trumps are announced without using
the Skat.
Grand, or grand solo, has a value Of
16, Jacks are the only trumps and all
suits have the same value. In grand
ouvert the player lays his hand down
face up and defies his opponents to
take a single trick. Should he choose
nullo the player announces he VIII
not take a trick. In nullo ouVert the
player makes the same announcement
and also exposes his hand. In ranlsch
lacks are the only trumps and the or
der of the player is the reverse of
grand The value of all plays is m
crea sed by the holding of certain face
cards or matadors and by other varia-
lions in the hands. The computations
of values are extremely complex, SO
much SO that the books on skat con-
tain tables to assist the players.
