PRESS OF THE NORTHWEST TELLS

STORIES FROM ALL PARTS
Sportsmen Are All in Luck, Either
Good or Bad - How Some
of Them Have
Farcd.

Buffalo Express: A deputy game war
den from Casselton struck Buffalo Tues
day evening to round up a couple of non
resident sportsmen. The aforesaid game
warden was so confident of making a
killing that he told "everybo and his
wife" how, when and where he was go
ing TO mail to the cross the unregen-
crate sons-of-guns that were just STAY
ing our birds without having put up the
necessary for a permit The huntsmen
having friends here of course wished to
protect them, and naturally made an eff
fort, which was successful, to warn
them. While Mr.. Deputy Game Warden
was telling the boys how he was going
to do it the gentlemen whom he was
after had a fresh team furnished them,
and were joyfully pursuing their way to
Minnesota. where upon their arrival they
'phoned their regrets to their friend" at
Buffalo.

ton holds, and properly, that there IS a
chance for this sort of ruling to oper-,
ate harshly and unjustly in some cases.
For this reason TattersallS has resolved
to recognize the work done by both men,
and in cases where the referee is salts
fed of the fact that one of the men is
trying to aid the outsiders in an attempt
to rob the public, while the honest fight
er is doing his best to furnish the goods,
the Judge of the battle will award the
proper share to the man who fights, and
taboo the crook.
Hypnotism has not up to the present
time played much of part in ring con-
tests. That it will in the future is evil
denced by the fact that the fighters have
come to a point where they recognize the
potency of the occult mystery, and on
both the North and South sides the boys
with the handy mits are developing the
mystic shift. One fighter, we'll known to
Chicagoans, has been dabbling in the
arts that were once considered as be-
longing to the peculiar domain of his
Satanic majesty. He has read every
thing touching upon hypnotism and per-
sonal magnetism, and in his endeayor to
put his theories to work has perhaps
forgotten some of his knowledge of upper
cuts and counters. He is a fighter and
usually fights hard but when it comes
TO passes he is hardly in line. Grace
is one of the things to distinguish the
man who hands out personal magneucS,
but to the man who hands out left tabs
and short arm iolts the question is another
one. This self-same fighter, a good one
known to all, has tried his hypnotic in
fiuence on others who have faced him
in the ring, and slowly but surely the
knowledge is dawning upon the ring
follower that hypnotic influence is a
poor thing in ring tactics. The fighter
must fight, and the man who depends on
personal magnetism or anything con-
nected with mystery IS bound to find
that straight punches and clever ducking
beat anything that Marie Correln ever
dreamed of.
Tattersall's Athletic club will open it's
season on Sept. II, and on that night
will present card which the people of
Chicago will appreciate 1t will be made
up of men representing both the East
and the West, and their efforts will
undoubtedly be rewarded by the plaudits
of a large crowd of fight lovers. The
bill is a strong one, and Terry Meow
erns presence seems to obtrude itself in
almost every line. The boys who met
the westecners are Broo&lynites, and
most of them are boys who have at
some time either boxed or worked with
the Mighty Terror. Tommy Felz is a
particular protege OF Terry's; Tommy
Sullivan has beaten all the little men
about the city of churches; Hugh Nc
Padden is regarded as invincible in the
same town, and Johnny Reagan is looked
upon as a conner. Dial Hawkins needs
no introduction. He has been fighting fer
a number of years and is known rs a
clever, hard-hitting lightweight Billy
Stiff and Barney Connors will furnish u
wind-up that should prove All interesting
and exciting one. They met once before,
and a draw was the result. This time
they are resolved that a finish will b..
the end, so that fight worth witness
ing may be looked for.

Mandan Pioneer: Last week young
man from Mandan came up here and
Joined two Glen Ullin young men for
hunting trip to Heart river A lunch for
the trip was prepared by some young
lady friends of the party. When the
hunters arrived in the evening at the
river, having "downed'' twenty-four
chickens, they prepared to have a good
supper with fried chickens. This could
not be very well done without lard. So
one Of the men, being. a cook, searched
for the butter and lard. Butter was
found in a jar and in a nice white clean
paper was wrapped up what they took
to be lard, and they passed remarks to
the effect that laI d must have been
scarce for those who prepared the lunch
TO have sent so little. AS the supply of
lard, was small. they put only a. little
into the spider and began to fry the
chickens. They thought that it acted
queer, 50 they put in some butter, and
still the chicken would not turn to a
n &c brown. After eating good supper,
they all complained of not feeling well,
but laid it to the heartiness of the sup
per However, when they got back they
discovered that the lard was not lard
at all, but soft soap put In by one Of the
young ladies'.

COMBATANTS IN COURT.
WOMEN WHO MADE SCENE ON
SATURDAY ON HAND AGAIN.
However There Was No Disturbance
Hearing in the Piano Case Pro-
crosses.

The hearing Of the motion to prevent
X. j. MacRae from foreclosing a mort
gage given by Frank Newberry on the
piano owned by his wife,. Libbie. was re-
sumed In Judge Lindsay's court this
morning. but during the session none of
the scene enacted in the same case on
saturday morning We're repeated. Mrs.
Newberry n her sister entered the
room shortly before court convened and
took seats near the west side of the
room. Near a window at the opposite
side sat Mr.. Newberry and his sister,
Mrs. Murphy, both of whom had been at
tackled BY the other two women on Satur-
day. the former in the court room by
Mrs. Newberry alone and the latter in
the corridor by both shortly afterwards.
The hearing was taken up at the point
at which it had been so abruptly broken
by Mrs. Newberry leaving the witness
stand and disturbing Mr.. Newberry's
reverie with the business end of an UNI
brella. but before being renewed r. L.
Clinton. one of the attorneys for the de-
PENDANT. k that Mrs. Murphy be al
lowed to remain in the room, as she had
been assaulted / nthe corridor on Sat-
urday. The request was granted. Mr..
Clinton then made a motion for a %
suit. 1t was based upon the allegation
that although 1t had been shown that
, Newberry had given his mother-in-law
the piano to liquidate a $500 bill he owed
her for the board of his wife, and title
W la AAASAA Ao b0o0C0 = AS "AAS
from her mother, Newberry himself did
not Ia title to the instrument at the
time he gave it to his mother-in-law. The
other side, however. argued that New
berry's mother-in-law had made the final
payments on the piano and therefore it
belonged to her.
! The judge overruled he motion and
' James Orion began giving testimony. He
said he was engaged in the music instru-
ment business. The contract entered into
between Newberry and the witness in
reference to the sale of the piano was
produced and submitted to him. 1t show
ed that all of the payments on the in
strument had been made the last one on
September 2. 1896. by Mrs. Newberry,
who a made most of h payments.
So far as the witness knew no assign
ment of the contract had ever been
made.
The hearing was still in progress at a
late hour this afternoon and bid fair
to consume the entire day.

She was arrested early yesterday morn
Ing by Officer Walsh on account of her
peculiar conduct. She ran into a lodg-
ing house on East Broadway and told
the prOprietress Of the place that she
was being pursued by a man who wanted
to kill her. The landlady was at first in
clined to believe her story, but later de-
velopments convinced her that the wo-
man was not right mentally, so she sent
out for an officer. who took her to the

Her conduct was 50 rational at the Jail

of the fall rendered her unconscious and
this was her condition when the officer

HELENA WAS
OuT-ROO7EO
AND THEREFORE THE TEAM
FROM THE CAPITAL WAS OUT
PLAYED AND BEATEN,
LOCAL FANS GOT IN
THEIR NOISIEST WORK,
Score Stood Eight to Five at the End
Game Was Ragged in Certain
Spots.

Three thousand people saw Helena go
down to defeat at the ina game Of the
Helena-Butte series. 1t was a game with
which the rooters had much to do with
the winning. In the center of the grand
stand was a crowd of 40 or so deep
hroated fans, who commenced opera
tons when the first ball went over the
plate, and ceased vocalizing when the
game was won. It was the noisest crowd
ever attending Athletic park, and moth
ing escaped its observation. Umpire
Smith incurred its displeasure early. and
thereafter life was miserable for him. 1t
paid no little attention to the Helena
contingent, particularly to one or two
Helena men who had money to burn at
the beginning of the game and whose
rolls looked like 30 cents at the finish.
The enthusiasm of these rooters was in
fectious. and before the end of the game
the Butte end of the grand stand was q
bowling mob.
At the finish the score stood s to S. 1t
should have been about II to 8. At times
the game was somewhat ragged but the
Butte end of the crowd was satisfied. In
the first three innings Butte had eight
men die on bases. and a little more luck
would have piled up an awful score.
Ryan pitched for Helena and the home
times. The visitors lost heart early, and
the team work that has won so MANY
games in the past was lacking.
St. Vrain was in the box for the Buttes.
He pitched excellent ball, but along to-
wards the finish. with three men on
bases. allowed himself to be hit by a
batted ball. the incident retiring Butte
without a score.

LOOKING FOR HER father.
Daughter of Thomas Griffths Comes
From Wales in Search Of Him.

Miss Florence Griff1ths arrived from
Anaconda a few days ago. She IS IN
search of her father, Thomas Griftiths,
who left his home in Wales some years
ago and came to Butte with the idea of
bringing his family to~this country later.
In 1895 a son who came to Montana
with Grifhths was killed at Great Falls.
This seemed to effect the old mans mind
and a few years ago he ceased to write
to his family and his daughters decided
to come to the United States and en-
deayor to find him. Two of the daugh-
tiers went to Pennsylvania and the third.
Miss Florence, came to Anaconda. The
young lady succeeded in interesting
Chief Lavell in her case and an official
letter of inquiry will be sent out all over
the west.
