Probably no greater disappointment
could have befallen the class than to
have him left out of the pictures given
herewith. He was taken sick with the
measles last Sunday and was unable to
be present when it was taken especially
for the Inter Mountain.
Members of his class and his many
friends deeply regret that his nah has
been left off the programme for tonight's
commencement exercises, and it is dis

Basil Elford is one Of the graduates
who is deserving of especial mention.
He is a poor boy. His parents being UNI
able to assist him, he has by hard knocks
made his own way through school and
was forced to overcome obstacles with
which none of his colleagues have had to
contend. He is Intellectually bright, is
ambitious to make his mark in the
world, and those who know him best pre-
dict for him future full of sunshine, yet
his battle of life is just begun.
During vacations Basil has picked up
what work he could find to do and DUR
ing the school season he has paid his
way by being member of the Inter
Mountains Anaconda staff of carriers,
and delivered papers to subscribers every
evening. He performed the same duty
for the Standard every morning going
to work as early as o'clock; annd with
the money received in that manner
from both papers he has made ends

anaconda, May 17.-"He conquers who
conquers himself" Such is the motto
adopted by the class of '01 of the Ana
conda High school which participates in
the graduating exercises at the Margaret
theater tonight.
Those words are particularly appro-
pirate for this occasion, for the reason
there are numbered among the students
who are to retire from high school life,
several who have not been blessed with
the advantages enjoyed by their col
leagues. Some of them have endured
hardships, oftentimes discouraging; but
possessed of the undaunted spirit to
achieve success, they struggled on, and
have at last conquered in their studies
and have won well earned laurels.

eight members. five of whom are young
ladies. OF this number, six have receiv-

Anaconda. May 17.-If indications
count for anything there will be a whole
lot of base ball played in Anaconda this
summer. There will be no regular lea
que teams, but there will be local teams
enough in the field to make things inter-
esting.
DR.. Owen is pretty much of a sport
when 1t comes to base ball.
That was his hobby when he was boy
IN the Grammar school, and somehow he
has never lost the youthful laundering for
1t. He has always been an enthusiastic
fan" and like good many others in
Anaconda he did not want to see the
game entirely dead in the Copper City
this year, so he has taken an active part
In the organization of regular team,
which is ready to cross bats with some
of the best Of 'em.
The new team will be known as the
Anacondas. and will consist of such
players as DR.. G. B. Owen, Frank Tuck
er. - Williams, H. H. Hansen Joseph
McHale, Dick Knox, Bert Schills, -
Mooney and Bert Storey.
1t Is arranged that the first game will
be pulled off next Sunday at Mountain
View Park, and a special train will leave
for the Park at 1880 o'clock in the after
noon. The Anaconda Juniors have con-
sented to play the first game of the sea-
son with the new nine, and everyone an
ticipates pretty warm contest. The
Juniors have played several games al
ready this year and they have displayed
considerable ability.
The proposed game between the doc
tors and lawyers will be put off until
Decoration day, when the Cycle Path
1fzks =
outing at the park.
The Doctors and Lawyers.
A sufficient number Of doctors have
consented to play to make up their nine,
and they are now waiting for the law
years to get in line.
The trouble is the disciples Of Black
stone are not up to date on base ball,
still some of them declare they are will
ing to learn. 1t is said County Attorney
Duffy is poor man at the bat. and that
he could no more hit ball thrown at
him than he could fly. He would be at
home out in the field. Hiram Rogers, is
first class pitcher, and if he doesn't keep
the pill-rollers guessing it will be a eau
ton. John w. James, being the fat man
of the fraternity, will probably be as
signed to the catcher's position.
The other places will be filled by such
legal lights as Judge Napton, G. B. Win
ston, City Attorney Sewyer, John T..
Casey. Col T. OLeary, J. r. Boarman,
Percy Napton, H. r. Whitehill and Chris
Walsh. +..-- 49,,
If the game is arranged and there Is
little doubt that it will be. it will be
about the funniest thing that has hap
pened in Anaconda in a long time
1t will certainly draw big crowd to
