CHAPTER vi.
My mother was lying on the sofa In the
breakfast room, with the Venetian blinds
| down 10 darkeh the morning sunshine
| Her eyes were closed, though she held
In her hands the prayer book, from which
she had been reading as usual the Psalms
for the day. Whilst | was looking al
her, though | made no sort OF sound oil
movement, she seemed to feel that 1 was
there: and after looking up she started
from her sofa, and flung her arms about
ME, pressing closer and closer.
"0h, Martin, my boy; my darling!" she
sobbed, thank heaven you are come

"You have come back like barba-

boy? You must tell me all about It,"
"As soon as have had my breakfast,
mother. must put up few things In a
hamper to go back by the Sark cutter" T"

"What sort OF things?" she asked. "Tell
me, and | win be getting them ready for
you"
"Well. there will be some medicines, of
course" said; you cannot help me in
that. But you can find things suitable
for delicate appetite; jelly, you know,
and jams, and marmalade; anything nice
that comes TO hand, And few amusing
books"
"Booksg'' echoed my mother.

FIREBUGS
APPREHENDED
Two Men Supposed to Have Fired
the Occidental Hotel ON Night
of July 3 Under Arrest
at MissOula.

Two men under suspicion of having
been responsible for the horrible fire
of July 8, when the Occidental hotel
and the N. p. coal docks were burned
and Jacob Braun lost his life, were
arrested Tuesday afternoon in Mis-
soula. A message to that effect was
sent to Sheriff Davis and that officer
left on the evening train to bring the
prisoners back. He is expected to ar
rive with his men tomorrow provided
the suspects do not demand hearing
under a writ of habeas corpus. Ac-
cording to the statement of the sheriff's
deputies here; the message gave no in
formation further than that two men
had confessed to the crime. Whether
the arrests were made at the instance
of n. P. detectives or the local author
tiles is not yet known.
The mystery of the Occidental fire
has never vet been unravelled. While
there appeared to be evidence of a con.
spiracy for the purpose of covering up
series of robberies perpetrated by
men who made the place their head
quarters, the officials were never able
to prove a case and no arrests were
made. 1t is to be hoped that the re-
port from Missoula is founded on facts
and that the perpetrators OF the das-
tardly crime will be brought to just
punishment.
LATER-A Mi ssoula dispatch states
that Ray Telly, sixteen yeor old
boy from Oklahoma, is held for the
crime. Joseph Fox, his companion,
now under conviction for another crime,
is accusing witness. Telly's father is
in Missoula and will fight for his re-
lease.

NOT MILES CITY
BUT RED LODGE
Coal Diggcrs Hand an IgnOminiOus
Defeat to the Cow BOys--
Score, 10 to u.

Forsyth will cut Red Lodge out of
its circuit hereafter. The coal diggers
are altogether too handy with the will
low and there is no glory in shutting
out lot OF gophers anyhow even il it
could be done. The disaster or
slaughter or whatever the grand stand
title for the holocaust NAV be, took
place at Billings yesterday afternoon
and was the feature of the Yellow stone
fair that day. The score is far more
eloquent than even this patrician Eng
lish can be and here it is:
Red LODGED 8 0 0 O. 10
Forsyth didn't need any score as the
net result of it's nine innings looked
like row of buck wheat cakes. Flem-
ing and Graves did the battery work
for Red Lodge. Fleming is an erratic
pitcher who some times passes the
balls up on silver platter and makes
it bad for his team. Occasionally he
gets into the .'phenom" class and keeps
the other side guessing all through the
game. Yesterday was one of his lucky
days and Forsyth got taste of diff
cult batting. There were some safe
hits of course, but no scores resulted.
The first three innings were all
right. Both sides played even and no
scores. Kersten, who was in the box
for Forsyth, let the batters get four
runs. Mcdonald was then substituted
in the middle Of the fourth inning and
Red Lodge punched up four more. In
the 5th and 9TH the coal diggers got
one each and a total of ten. It was a
clear case of superiority on the part
of Red Lodge and as remarked before,
the Coal Diggers will be passed up.
The day was cold and windy, making
field work very disagreeable. There
was good crowd in attendance and
the roofing was impartial.
Had it been a game between Miles
City and Red Lodge with the same re-
suits, Boucher, the sporting editor of
the Yellowstone Journal, could doubt
less have made numerous explanations
of how it happened so, but to the News
it appears that our boys were simply
outplayed, so no excuse will be offer
ed.

The engagement of these young peo-

SO the above notice is no surprise to
their many friends in Rosebud and

The bride is the daughter of Mr..

but is a native of Montana, having been
born at Ft. Keogh. Besides being a
great social favorite at Miles City,
where she has resided for the past
year, her ability as a vocalist has
made her a familiar and central figure
in musical entertainments at Miles
City, Forsyth and Glendive.
The groom is the active member Of
the firm Of Wright & Grierson, real
estate and insurance agents, and al
though resident of Forsyth for only
a few months, he has already made
place for himself in the business life
Of the town and county. He is native
of San Francisco, but has passed the

MAYNARD GIRL RETURNS HOME.
Receives Twenty Dollars from the Man Wbom She CHARGES
With Her DowniaII-Policc Say News" Exposure
Had Wholesome Effect

A few day ago the News" published
the story Of the downfall and expressed
determination Of a young girl to lead
an abandoned life, ana Of how she had
BEEN according to her own story, led
astray by a well known business man,
through the medium Of late suppers
ana wine shop evils.
You can say for the police" said De-
tectiye Sheets, that the publication of
that story has done more good for Salt
Lake morals in a short time than the
publication Of any other article Of re-
cent date, Not only has it caused pe1-
pei who live on the seamy side OF life,
as the News put IT, to be more cir
cumspect I'm their conduct, but It has
also had a decidedly wholesome effect
on the keepers Of alleged respectable
restaurants, Altogether II has done a
very great amount Of good and has
served notice ON not a few that they,
too, are liable to exposure unless they
change their course
The article also resulted In another
and more successful attempt being
made to save the young girl from the
career upon which she declared her In
tention Of permanently entering, as af-
ter it was read to her and further I'M
portuntes made she consented % go
home and under official protection was
taken there. II is said also that her
association with the business man re-
ferred to has been entirely severed, all
though he is reported TO have sent her
