FOE Of KANSAS SALOONS
TICE OF SMASHING UP THINGS
FOR YEARS
SHE EXPECTS TO KEEP IT UP
A FusiIade of Paving Stones May he
Expected by Amy Bar In
the State at Any
Time.

Mrs. Carrie Nation, the saloon smash
ef, by no means appeared in that char
acter for the first time when she made
the Hotel Carey saloon in Wichita look
like thirty cents last month. Mrs. Ma
ton had been in the business of wreck
ing drinking places for ten years and,
with slight intervals for refreshment and
rest, has kept the liquor sellers of Kan
sas in a state of commetfon. Nobody
who stands behind bar in the Sunffower
state knows at what moment, when he
is putting all his soul into the artistic
compromising of a golden fizz, the door
may open and the fusillade of paving
stones which announces the arrival OF
Mrs. Nation begin. In what town she
is going to break out next there is no
knowing. Wherever the fancy seizes her
she goes. and then there are lively times
for while in that locality.
Mrs. Nations methods are these: She
arrives in town, looks over the ground
and selects the saloons which she shall
devote to wrath. The highly decorated
ones with large mirrors, plenty of cut
glass behind. the bar and tropical pic.
lures are her favorite backgrounds, but
on occasions she will attack "seeak
eaSys" and low dives. Having determin-
ed upon her line of battle, she calls upon
the proprietors of the places selected
and warns them to close up. If they
refuse to do so she calls around later
with bundle containing paving stones
in her arms and opens fire.
IN SOCKLESS JERRY'S HOME.
She began her saloon smashing cam
pa1gn ten years ago in Medicine Lodge,
the home of 'tSockless Jerry Simpson.
The saloons were running full blast in
that town, though there was no license.
She determined to stop them and warn
ed the proprfetors to close They laugh
ed at her. But they did not laugh when
the plueky woman, having procured evil
dence against several of the proprietors,
brought them to trial and put them in
the penitentiary. Those against whom
she had not been able to get enough evil
dence to send to Jail chuckled to them
selves as they thought of the increase
In their business which would result

When Mrs. Nation appeared in their pal
aces with her paving stones and proceed
ed to put them out of business by smash

by law every saloon in Medicine Lodge
or put it out of business and made Il
wreck of it by taking the law in her
own hands. Since then the liquor busi-
ness in Medicine Lodge has languished,
and those who sell do so most secretly,
keeping an eye out all the time for the
approach of the terrible crusader with
her paving stones.

HELD UP BY A MASKED MAN
is. Connell Accuses H. ]. Schmidt
of an Attempt at Highway
Robbery.

j. S. Council, a miner, appeared in the
police court this morning as the COM
plainant against II. j. Schmidt, hard
looking individual charged with nigh
way robbery. Schmidt entering plea
of not guilty will be given hearing at
3 o'clock next Tuesday.
Council was on his way home yester-

FORT KEOGH WILL BE SAVED
The Oldest Fort in Montana Will Not
Be Given Over to Decay-The
Forts History

odd Fort Keogh, near Miles City.
which, with Fort Missoula, is the oldes;
Montana fort now containing a garrison.
Is not to be abandoned, according to the
latest dispatches" said A. r. Jordan. a
Miles City stock man at the Butte hotel
this morning. AN order was sent some
days ago from the quartermaster gen.
eral of the departments headquarters at
st. Paul. and instructed the quarter
master of the Custer county post to stop
work on all contracts which had been
made for the repair of the post, to dis
charge all workmen engaged, and to as
certain the value of all material on
hand and the amount 1t would be ne
cessary to pay contractor for violation
OF the government agreement with
them.
This order came as a painful sur
prise to all Montanans, who were Of the
opinion that the old post was to be re-
paired and renovated in accordance with
an appropriation which was made a few
years ago, when $40, 900 was appropriated
by the federal government to be ex-
pended on the fort.
Nevertheless it seemed practically
certain that the policy Of the depart
ment could mean nothing else. 1t is
known that there is to be a general
shaking up among the army posts OF the
country, and many are to be abandoned
and others more thoroughly garrisoned
The secretary of war is on a tour of
inspection Of posts to be abandoned,
and he is expected to visit Fort Koogh
in the near future. The military author
tiles at the post expressed themselves as
positive that the order received meant
that the post was to be abandoned at
once.
notwithstanding that congress re-
Gently appropriated money to repair the
old fort, the war department evidently
reached the conclusion that the age of
usefulness of Fort Keogh was past.
Keogh was built by General Nelson A.
Miles in 1877, to supply the place of a
fort dismantled in 1866, and to prove
to the Indians, as it We're, that Uncle
Sam was coming into Montana to stay.
The fort was Immediately earrisoned by
the 5th United States infantry and four
companies of the End cavalry. General
Miles was placed in command of the
post and remained there for several
years The post did valiant service in
the various Indian wars of the state.

1885, Major McElrath is quoted as say

ANACONDA DAY AT THE FAIR
Visitors From the Neighboring City
Saw the Sights of Butte Last
NiQht

Yesterday evening the visitors from
Anaconda began to arrive at the street
fair 1t was the day set aside for the
neighboring city visitors and they came
in numbers to see the sights of the place.
Over 500 visitors came to witness the
many interesting sights of the gay street
along which merchants of the city of
Butte have displayed their wares, the
midway attractions and the numerous
special features of the place. Not often
do the people of the city of Anaconda
set aside day or an evening to mingle
with the residents of Butte and the oc-
casion was one of jollity.
All yesterday there was an amount of
jollity on tap at the fair ground that
former days had not produced. 1t was
the josh day and the visitors appeared
to catch the enthusiasm that is in the
air and seem to increase as the day Of
the carnival, the last day of the fair
draws near. Last evening the throne Of
the queen of the carnival was decOra ted
with flowers by her admirers and the
group composed of the fair queen, the
gracious ladies in attendance and the
bright pages who waited upon the bevy
Of beauties was one of the star attrac-
tons of the place.
Members of the Overland club have
had hard work and not until the boolH
are balanced at the end of the fair will
it be known whether they have worked
without reward. Financial reward, how
ever, has not been the aim of the club
members and they have made a lasting
impression upon the people Of Butte by
their enterprise and this, after all, is a
large measure Of compensation.

commanding officer of Fort Keogh-
General Miles-more than any other in
strumentality, the credit is due for the
cleansing of eastern Montana of the
hordes of hostile savages, who as late as
1877 rendered the Yellowstone unin-
habitable for whites. 1t may safely be
claimed that the aboriginal bugbear has
been exterminated in that locality.
There are, it is true, as in all western
territories, multitudes of Indians in the
valley, but they are either reconstruct
ed attaches or captive allies of Fort
keogh. or. friendly tribes living on their
special reservation; but the so-called
hostile no longer threaten the Yellow.
stone valley, nor need there be the
slightest risk of invasion by them so
long as Fort Keogh is effectively garri.
soned and efficiently utilized"
Fort Keogh was used as regimental
headquarters until the outbreak of the
Spanish American war in 1898, when
the entire garrison of the post, with the
exception of few men to do guard
duty, were ordered to the south to serv-
ice in Cuba. At the close of the war q
troop Of cavalry was stationed at the
post, and has been kept there ever since.
Contracts for extensive repairs,
which We're badly needed, We're let a
few months ago, and a large force of
mechanics was at the post when the
order came to suspend work last week.
In case the contracts We're annulled the
contractors would secure equitable relief
from the government"
1t is gratifying to everyone to know
that the old fort will not be abandoned,
but on the contrary will be repaired and
put in good condition.

ties and a careful watch kept for the
supposed thief until yesterday, when
