When I saw how frightened they
were, I instantly became as calm and
collected as could be--felt like veteran
in the business. When the clerk asked
if there was anything needed, l told
him two witnesses, and he just flew
out of the room. He returned with the
proprietor and two ladies. 1t seems the
women had somehow felt it in the air
that there would be a wedding, and
congregated in the parlor about forty
of them, and among them some girls
who are now the first ladies of the
state. When they saw me get up they
felt highly elated for they thought, of

a tone of disgust. 'you people from the

their pipes went out the second night

"They engaged the old Loeber hall,

charged 81 seat. The first night they
packed the house and Of all the vile at
tempts at amusement that was the
worst 1t was mighty sad crowd filed
out of there that night, but thirsting for
revenge.
Butte was full of FOUNDERS those
days. And the FOUNDERS of those days
were not. as lots of people think the
same thing as your hoboes of today.
Not much Money was easy then and
they rolled them high What IL they were

one who would stake them for a game,

he sauntered to the bar.
But where did the good time come
in," persisted the reporter
Amt just been tellin' you. Why,
say do you know that every funeral
there wasn't a sober man in the crowd
once we got the corpse planted. We had
a regular wake then. We always put
'em away first, though, for if we hadn't,
they'd had to get along three or four
days without buryin'. Once 1 was try
