 Withstanding all reports to the con- traly. It was stated some time ago that the society had gone out of bus1- ness for keeps, but at that time a com mlttee was at work preparing the con- stitution and bylaws which are to gov eTn it in the future. One of the mem- bers told reporter of this paper last night that the association intends to take hold of other matters as we'll as politics and that if things turn out as they expect they will Tammany will be one of the bidders on city con I tracts next year. He said that it was . the purpose of the corporation to en- I gage in any legitimate work that there | Is an honest dollar in. and that while It had not yet been definitely decided whether it will take big contracts or nor. he felt confident that it. would | make q bid for some work in that line and that at the present time the as- Sociation is better equipped to do busi- ness and is far more responsible than | some of the contractors about town i that have been in the business for years.

A JAIL DELIVERY n o
George More, Burglar, Shakes the Dust
OF lewistown from His feet.

The Hotel de Fergus received a severe blow
to its reputation for hospitality Sunday after
noon when George More left without even
saying by your leave, or offering any settle
ment with his host. Jailer Nichols.
More is the fellow charged with breaking
into c.. II. Williams drug store Christmas Eve
and lifting about 800 worth of iewelry,
pipes, rife. etc, He was arrested a week later
and after examination was held to the district
court on the charge of burglary In the first de
gree. the prevailing opinion being that he
would journey 10 Deer Lodge about April /
The delays Of the law bore heavily upon him
and Sunday he decided TO leave without wait
ing for formalities. The dampness of the court
house Jail and the necessity of keeping up a
good fire have rendered it convenient TO allow
one man to remain in the corridor during the
day. and frequently during the past weeks this
privilege has fallen to the lot of More, The
bars in the windows had been loosened by per
sistent working and Sunday afternoon More
went diligently to work, taking advantage Of
the fact that few were likely to be around that
part Of town at that time. BY working the bars
up and down he dislodgcd a few bricks on the
outside and shortly had four bars sufficiently
raised to permit his crawling through. Other
prisoners told the officers. when they reached
the jail at about 5 p. m, that More had been
gone about an hour and a half.
The fellow was caught Monday evening
about dusk at the Dundom ranch on lower
Spring creek and is again lodged In jail. where
he will be more closely confined than hereto
fore.
When the officers undertook the hunt sun
day they rapidly spread the news among ranch.
men for miles around. giving IN accurate ue-
scription OF the man. Monday evening Ira
Dundom saw More. whom he recognized at
once, crossing a foot bridge near his home.
Quickly saddling his horse and taking a shot
gun. he followed and held up the fellow. He
wa. put on a horse and VIII Dundom led this
horse TO town. Ira riding in the rear covering
the prisoner. More was very ugly when put in
Jail and attempted to break away from sheriff
Shaw. He said he had taken the trail down the
creek and had nothing 10 eat since he left.
The sheriff rewarded each d the Dundom
boys with s2s for their services. More's term
in the penitentiary will probably be consider
ably heightened because of the incident.
