STARTER jim FERGUSON
Relieved Of Bullet Which He Had
Packed for Twenty Years.

James B. Ferguson, who Oftlciated as
starter at the race track here during the
last meeting and did like work at the
Oakland, Cal, track for several seasons,
has lust had a bullet taken from his body
in Kentucky. Last spring, when the
races in California closed for the sea-
son. Ferguson went east to die from the
effects of the bullet he had been packing
around with him for twenty years. but
he failed to die He suffered, however,
and finally. believing he might linger
several years, concluded to submit to an
operat ton. Regarding the operation,
dispatch from kentucky says:
Lexington, KY, Nov. 12.-To Professor
M. L. Pence, who occupies the chair OF
physics in the state university, Is due the
success of an operation that removed
bullet lodged in the back of Starter
James Ferguson for twenty years.
Professor Pence marked a place on the
plate to be used i'm taking the X-ray pic
ture, likewise marked point on Fergu-
sons back and laid the patient on the
plate so that the two points touched. He
placed his apparatus directly over this
point and took an exposure. He then
moved his apparatus four inches to the
left and gave another exposure of equal
time, He thus obtained two pictures OF
the bullet on the same plate.
Knowing the distance from the appar-
atus to the plate, the distance between
the two pictures of the bullet and the
distance ne had moved the apparatus
for the second exposure, he could calcu-
late the exact position and depth of the
bullet.
He was present at the operation and
indicated to Surgeon Archibald Barkley
the exact spot the bullet was located, and
indicated it's depth. The operation proved
his conclusions true.

whats the matter with Adolph
Stack?"
That's the question Coroner Brown is
asking; that's the query of Proprietor
Grossenbacher, CT the Swiss hotel, on No.
20 South Arizona street. and the police
echo the intarrogatory refrain
Coroner Brown held an inquest at
Sherman's undertaking parlors last eve
ming over the remains of Charles Strick-
Ter. who was found dead in his room at
the Swiss hotel last Sunday morning.
The jury, after hearing the evidence of
Proprietor John u Grossenbacher, of the
Swiss hotel; of Henry Bruckner, his
brakeeper, and of Benjamin Ollinger,
his bartender, rendered a verdict that
death resulted from natural causes.
Strickler had been drinking heavily for
period extending from a few days pre-
viously to election UP to the hour of his
death. He was troubled with heart fail
ure, and it is believed that when he fell
the bruises on his face were caused by
striking his face on the floor in his death
struggle.
But the question that nonpluses the
coroner, the jury and the police is:
whats the matter with Stack?"
Adolph Stack was a roommate of the
NSSte1SSA,
In leaving the room he was obliged to
step over Strckler's body-something he
seemed to believe an evil omen. On Sun
day evening he disappeared, taking his
valise with him, but not before he had
been subpoenaed as a witness at the in
quest.
He has not been seen since that time,
and the jury had to arrive at a verdict
without the assistance Of his evidence.
AS there is nothing pointing toward foul
play in connection with Striclller's de.lth,
the general impression seems to prevail
that Stack was so Mortified by the Cir
cumstances surrounding the death of his
friend that he wished to leave the scene
of the unfortunate mans end as speedily
as possible. Fearful Of being forced to
gaze upon Strickler's countenance again,
at the inquest, it is regarded as probable
that he has remained in hiding in order
to avoid being in attendance. Otherwise
the officials are at a loss to account for
his failure to respond to a summons.

A. B. Carow. of Bozeman. one of the
leaders of Galatin county democracy,
was in the city today and gave very
story of the election over his
way Carow's nephew, Alex Wessitsh.
, was member of the First Montana vol
1unteers, enisting as first sergeant of
company and being mustered out as sec
, ond lieutenant. He was put up as
democratic candidate for clerk of the
court in Gllatin county with the firm
tbeltf that his soldier record and his per-
{ sona popularity would carry him
through Especially was he expected to
win, as Gallatin county has been
stronghold of the Clark democracy,
which he represented. Wessitsh is a Rus
sian born, his father having been a cap
tain in the Russian army, and as would
be natural, his leanings are toward the
Greek Catholic church. the national
church of Russia. The day before the
election, the independent democracy Of
Gallatin county realizing that they had
not shest of a show to elect their own
candidates, started an A. p. A. roorbacls
in which Wessitsh and Carow figured ex-
tenslVely.s 1t was a parting shot at the
Clark faction, but it worked, for Wes-
sitsh who had been looked on as a Win
ner, was swamped under the vote of
CathoIics who We're told the story too
late for its disproval. OF course, the re-
publican candidate won, though the OBJ
ject was merely to defeat the other wing
OF democracy. 1t is a striking example of
the way politics can be manipulated
without an iota of truth, save the name
OF the candidate to hang story on
However, in justice'to Gallatin county
Republicans, it may be said that they
had something to do with the vote, as
they carried several other of the county
officers through by smaller majorities.
The cock -and-bull story of the indie
penden'ts, the red rag hung out to scare
the Catholic vote, merely made the vic
tory more certain.
