Dacoits are bands of robbers under
command Of a chief who holds q re-

are yet the pests of India along the

Deer Lodge, Nov. 14.-Deer Lodge
people are rejoicing yer the an
nouncement that Conrad Kohrs will
build a $4,000 library and give it to
the town in memory of his only son,
William Kohrs, who died last spring.
Young Kohrs, who had just grown to
manhood, and was a student at Cornell
university, died in New York city last
spring, after a brief illness. With a
desire to leave a monument to his
sons memory, and to do something
for the little town he has seen grow
from it's formation, Mr.. Kohrs has de-
cided to make this gift, to be known as
the William Kohrs library.
A meeting of the leading citizens
was held and it a decided to call a
citizens meeting for next Friday night
when the offer will be formally accept
ed. Mr.. Kohrs proposes to erect a
building at a cost of $4,000 and to
give $4,000 toward buying books for
the library. The city is to see to keep
ing the library up and to pay the run
ming expenses. The site for the build
ing has not yet been decided upon,
but will probably be left to the wishes
of the donor.
Conrad Kohrs came to the territory
then a part of Idaho-in 1852, from
Davenport, Iowa. He soon saw the

M'cLoskEY ON BASEBALL.
Says Montana May Join the Pacific
Northwest Leauue,

John T. McCloskey, who managed
the Tacoma baseball team last season,
is in Spokane and there is a possibil-
ity that in the next few days he will
receive an offer to manage the Spo-
kane club in the seaso of 1902, says
the Spokane Spokesman Review. Mr..
McCloskey is also wanted by the Butte
team and will leave on Tuesday for
the Montana town to confer with the
management there. In the season Of
1900 he managed the Great Falls club
and won the championship of Mon
tana.
The two seasons of '95 and .'96, Mr..
McCloskey managed Louisville in the
National league, and his acquaintance
with players and methods includes
most of the leagues active in the east
and northwest.
"The new plan of the Pacific North
west league is to take In Butte and
Helena. Both are fine ball towns, with
lOlS VI lOWu pIluo anu DdChluS. Lie
addition of the towns would make a
six club league, and the new faces and
a more rapid change of teams in game
series would greatly stimulate public
interest. The plan would put Spo-
kane into the central position, and it
would be a stopover point for clubs
coming and going.
Jack" Flannery, who played cen
terfield for Tacoma last season, will
manage Helena. In regard to my COM
ing to Spokane, nothing has been def
nitely decided, but I have been ap-
preached on the subject by men inter
ested in the game here, and possibly
some agreement will be reached. I
like Spokane and last season it proved
to be a good ball town. I like the
plyaing of Tom Kelly of Spokane, and
think that with the proper work he
will become a good one. He is one Of
the most timely hitters in the league.
81 have no special field to go to for
my players, but l have my hands on a
team now that would win if it could
be brought out. I am on my way to
Butte on business connected with the
coming season"
