MERCHANTS BANQUET.
The Fremont Last Night Was q
Scene of Merriment and
Good Cheer.

The banquet given at the Ere
mont last night by the Merchants
association proved to be a com
plete success and withal very en-
iovable affair. The smelter and
several of the mills were represent
ed, and fifteen mem bers of the
Canon City Merchants association
were present.
At 10 O'Clock the guests entered
the dining room of the Fremont,
where an elaborate spread was in
waiting. After doing ample JUS
tice to the substantials, wine and
cigars were served, and the balance
of the time to midnight was spent
in speechmaking Hon P T. Nc
CURE, president of the Florence
association, acted as toastmaster,
presiding with his usual easy man
ner, He told of the objects of the
association, of what had already
been accomplished and what was
hoped for the future.
Attorney Clyde Dawson followed
with an interesting address in
which he spoke of the friendly re-
lations that should and do exist
between the people who 'do
things" in Florence and Canon.
Manager Wallace of the United
Oil company, Attorney A, HI. Nc
Lain, MIR. Harding of Canon, F. P.
Purdy of the Continental Oil COM
pany, j w. Work, and others fol
lowed, and throughout there
seemed to be an undercurrent of
mutual thought that Canon's and
Florence's interests are identical
and that the two best towns in the
state should pull together"
One question which was very
generally discussed was that of
making Florence common point
for freight rates, The fact that
Florence is one of the largest ship
ping points in the state, and that
yet the railroads discriminate in fa-
vor of Denver, Pueblo and Colorado
Springs is certainly matter
against which vigorous protest
should be made.
The entertainment ended with a
toast to the success of the Mer-
chants associations of Canon City
and Florence, and the hope was
generally expressed that more such
"heart to heart talks" might be in
store for the future.

With the Assistance Of the Good Citizens

citation.

J. H. Boucher, the deputy game
warden who has supervision of the
Flathead and Choteau district, is here
today from his home at Allyn, getting
acquainted with the county and city
officials and interviewing the members
of the game protective association and
others who are anxious to assist in
the preservation of the natural game.
Mr.. Boucher recognizes the fact that
he is operating in district so large
and cumbersome that it will take
more of his time and money than it
will be possible to devote, but he looks
to the local officers and institutions
to help him out wherever possible, re-
gardless of political af1iliation or dis
appointment that Kalispell man was
not given the preference in the ap-
pointment. He seems disposed to en-
force the law to the extent of his pow
er with the aid of all friends to the
game. When this man or that man
knows of violations of the game laws,
M. Boucher hopes that haste will
be made to notify him or lodge COM
plant before the proper officers.
He has already been urged to move
his headquarters to Kalispell, but
his ranching interests forbid and he
can only promise to make trips as
frequent and long as possible to this
section. Fish ways and other plans
for protection of the finny tribes in
these streams are now his main OBJ
ject and he goes from here to Libby
shortly.
Mr.. Boucher appears to be energetic
and enthusiastic in his work and will
probably be we'll liked when he be.

B00TLEGGERS IN KANSAS
Two Hen Loaded with Whisky Ar
resfrd af Hutchinson

Hutchinson, Kan, March 5.-Two men
who evidently are "booteggers" showed
up in Hutchinson and are now in the city
jail. They give their names as Arlington
and Frost and claim they were leaving
town when arrested by the police. Ia
their pockets were found about a dozen
bottles of forty-rod whisky. Besides this
suspicious circumstances it was soon
learned that one of the men had stolen a
pair Of shoes. Both men were fined at
police court this morning and are held In
default of payment Of the fines. The case
was reported to the county attorney this
morning and ne viii investigate it, and if
as he believes. there is sufficient evidence,
they will be prosecuted.
1t appears that the two men went to
the Streeter hotel with a jug of whicky
which they claim they brought from FL
lnwood. They went into a room and put
the liquor in bottles, pocketed it and
went on the street They made some
trouble at another place and the night
police went after them. They were over
taken by the Cow creek bridge. So far
as could be learned they had not sold any
of the whisky, but more may be learned
about the affair.

suffering more or less with the disease for
years and the family had been warned

soaring Mrs. Clay, who seeing the sparks
thought the house was afire. She soon
recovered and the folks left her with her
daughter-in-law while they came to town

although there was a slight flush upon her
cheeks. When dinner was ready she came

caught her with the remark, Mother Is

Dodge City Girl DOns Boys Clothes
and Goes "TOuristing"

Hutchinson, Kan, March 5.-On last
Friday night a young girl Of Dodge City
dressed herself in her brothers clothes
and escaped from town on a freight train.
The sheriff here received a telegram later
to round in all tramps and search for a
girl IN mems clothing. The name OF the
girl was not learned. A Hutchinson tav-
cling man who was in Dodge City says
that the girl left home with only 81 50 in

tramps who left there on Friday night
The girl has given her parents much
much trouble in the past and was sent 10
the Beloit school at one time.
Last night Sheriff Long and Assistant
Marshal snodgrass made a trip over town
interviewing tramps. but nothing vas
learned from the runaway. A double
header freight from the west was search
ed and several different crowds OF tramps
were found IN coal cars and box cars.
Since that time the police have been on
the lookout for the girl who Is masquer-
aiding as a tramp.
