COST HIM A HUNDRED.
Manager Brownies Faith in His Cayuse
Team Was Misplaced

Arthur Benjamin Browne, former man.
ager of the Mammoth Mining company,
and now manager of the Montana & Den
yer Reduction works at old Bear Town, is
not in a pleasant frame of mind these
days. Any mention of the pulling ca
pacity of teams of horses serves to bring
forth his slumbering wrath in furnace-lke
flames.
Mr.. Brownies company is equipping a
3o-stamp mill and cyanide plant at old
Bear Town, which is situated about eight
miles from Bearmouth. All material for
the plant had to be transported by team
from the railway at Bearmouth. Roads in
that vicinity are far from good, espe-
cially at this season.
The other day Mr.. Browne hired one
Smith, teamster, to furnish four-horse
team and haul machinery from Bear
mouth to Bear Town at $40 day. On the
first trip Mr.. Smith put on a load Of about
5000 pounds, but even with his four horses
had a long and very trying trip All the
energies of horses and drivers were re-
quired to get the load through.
us that the best you could do?' said
Mr.. Browne. Indignantly when he saw
the load. ''Why, 1 have two cayuses that
could pull that load themselves"
mo two cayuses in the world can pull
that load from Bearmouth up here" said
Mr.. Smith, with confidence.
TN bet you 500 mine can" said the
manager. Mr.. Smith promptly accepted
the bet and the money was put up
Manager Browne hooked his two cay
uses to the wagon. still loaded, and hauled
it back down to Bearmouth From there
he started back. He had proceeded but a
short distance when he encountered trou-
BILE. The cayuses strained and tugged and
the driver howled at them, but to no eff
feet. They were stalled-hopelessly STALL
ed. Then Mr.. Smith came along, pulled
down the 5000 and hooked his four horses
to the stalled outfit.

IGOR SEASON FOR GAME
Local Sportsmen Have Had Bad
Luck This Year.
RETURN EMPTY = HANDED
Something About the State Game Laws
and tho Pains and Penalties for
Their Violation-The Punish
n1snt Is Severe.

Whether because the snow holds off
and winter reluctantly hangs back, or
whether for some other reason, I'M
known to sportsmen, big game in Mon
tana is exceedingly scarce this year
Two or three Anaconda parties have
gone out, either north to the Blackfoot
country, to Moose Lake. at the head
waters of the Bitter Root river or just
over the county line into the Big Hole
basin; and nearly every one of the
huntsmen has returned home empty
handed or Is still afield, chasing illu-
sive luck.
Frank c. Norbeck, Ben Mahan, w. H.
Dudley and friend of Mr.. Norbeck's
from Wisconsin took four rifles to Wise
river, at the head of the Big Hole basin.
1t is kinder not to say much about
their luck which means that nothing
was seen.
Better fortune must have favored At
torney J. w. James, who went deer
stalking in the neighborhood of Wash
ington gulch, for he sent Deputy Coun-
ty Clerk Dan Morony juicy haunch
of venison.
Moose, elk and deer it is almost i'm
possible to get scent of, and bear meats
more looked for than found.
But the ducks have been wonderfully
plentiful; indeed, local sportsmen say
they never knew a better season for
ducks. About 1000 were killed in the
month of October alone by Anaconda
shots AS was the case last year,
grouse is scarce this season.
The open season for ducks, geese,
brant and swans began Sept. 1 and
holds until May 1. The season for
grouse. prairie chickens, sage hens, fool
hens and cartridges began Aug. Is and
will close Dec. Is. Not more than 20
of any one of these several varieties of
birds may be killed by one person in
a single day, and the sale of any of
these !. birds is prohibited. The sale
Of trout and grayling is prohibited.
Dynamiting for fish is a penitentiary
offense. rod, line and hook are the
only lawful implements for taking fish,
except below the great falls of the Mis-
souri, river, where two-inch seine may
be used. aH & rs
The season for deer, antelope and
Rocky mountain goat began Sept. 1 and
will last until Jan. i. Not more than
six Of either may be killed by one
sportsman during the entire season.
The open season for moose and elk be
gan Sept. 10 and closed Nov. Is. Not
more than two moose or elk may be
killed in one season by one person.
The killing of buffalo, beaver noun
tain sheep, quail or China pheasants. is
prohibited absolutely. 1t is unlawful
to trap or otherwise capture for, sale
or domestication any buffalo, elk, moose
or mountain sheep. Singing birds shall
not be killed. and it is unlawful
to despoiI the nests of any birds. The
use of dogs in the chase is prohibited.
The penalties for violation of the
game laws are severe: one-half the fine
imposed goes to the informer. The per-
son who kills more than six deer Oh
antelope in one season is subject to q
fine of from $500 to $1,000, and to i'm
prisonmerit for from three months tt
one YEAR

Missing Legatee Discovered Through an
Item in the Standard.
Through an item in the Standard a
lost heir has been found.
About fortnight ago Attorney G. B.
Winston received a letter from E. Cir
Guard, a barrister of Moncton, New
Brunswick asking Mr.. Winston to To-
cate one John w. Murphy, who was
supposed to live in this vicinity. Muir
ply, said the letter, was one of the
heirs of his sisters estate, she having
died recently. Her name was Mrs. Eli
zabeth Walls. All efforts to locate
Murphy had been futile.
Mr.. Winston was unable to secure
any trace of Murphy, so gave the letter
to the Standard for publication. A few
days ago Murphy walked into MI. Win
ston's office with a copy of the Stand
ard in his hands.
Il guess I'm the man. said he.
Murphy is a wood chopper some
what advanced in years, who lives in
the hills west of town and comes in
occasionally. He knows nothing con-
corning his sisters death or the prob
able size of his legacy. Mr.. Winston
has written to Barrister Girouard.
