ANACONDA DEPARTMENT
LATHEAO INDIANS
SLAUGHTER|NG DEER
TWO THOUSAND HEAD, BESIDES
OTHER GAME, SAID TO HAVE
BEEN KILLED BY THEM.
SPECIAL TO THE INTER MOUNTAIN.


Anaconda, Dec I7.-From James B.
Perkins, who has just arrived in Ana
conda from the West Fisher district in
Flathead county, it is learned that the In
dians are slaughtering deer and other game
there in great numbers.
He says that they are Flathead Indians
from the reservation and few Kootenais.
They hunt in large bands and have been
known to kill as many as 60 animals in
one day. They have their squaws and
children with them, as we'll as their horses
and dogs, and some of the camps have as
many as 100 people in them. They remain
at the hunting ground until the game is all
frightened away or killed and will not
quit until the hunting season is entirely
over.
Their manner of hunting is Of the sure
thing order. They surround hill or
mountain OH horseback with all their dogs
and then advance up the hill beating the
underbrush with the dogs and drive all OF
the game to the top where it is easily
killed. 1t is said that the slaughter has
been so great this year that in some parts
of the country all game has almost been
eliminated.
The estimate is that these Indians have
killed not less than 1000 head of deer be-
sides other game, and when they returned
to their reservation, as most of them have,
they had hundreds of horses packed with
fresh and cured meat.
For the past two winters, which have
been very mild, game has multiplied very
fast and at the opening of the hunting
season deer was very abundant and the
local hunters all had good luck for time.
This year the snow is very deep in the
mountains and the game has been colu-
PEELED to come down out Of the hills and
they were easy victims for the pot hunter.
There is little game left in Flathead
county.

NEW BUILDING IS
NEARLY COMPLETE
THOUGHT HIGH SCHOOL EDlFlCE
WILL BE READY FOR OCCUPA-
TON ABOUT JANUARY 1.
SPECIAL TO THE INTER MOUNTAIN.

Anaconda, Dec. I7.--It is the opinion OF
M. ]. Fitzpatrick, chairman of the school
board, that the new High school building
will be ready for occupancy on or about
February I.
Owing to the crowded condition Of the
other buildings it will be put in use at the
earliest possible moment and ii the con-
tractors do not experience some bad luck
the building will be ready by the time
named, or perhaps earlier.
The heating plant has arrived and the
work of putting it in place will be conf
menccd in few days.
The school board and Anaconda citizens
generally are and have good cause to be
proud of the new building, as it is one of
the best High school buildings in Montana
and has cost much less than it was thought
possible to build such magnificent build
ing for.
The building is centrally located and
will be a great convenience to pupils and
all others interested in the education of
the children of the city.

VANISHING ELEPHANT.

Come, let us fancy that we are in the

vanishing Elephant" and we wonder
what it means. Surely he is not go
ing to bring an elephant on the stage.
ana with wave of his wand make him
disappear, as he does watch, an egg,
or birdl
But now we shall know, for the ele-
phant comes next, and here is the
magician making things ready. He
moves 20 the front of the stage a
small wooden stand with a circular
top. The top is supported by a single
upright rising from broad base. Be-
tween his thumb and his finger the
magician holds little figure of an
elephant, which glistens like silver.
taklng his position near the stand, he
thus speaks to the audience:
During my visit to East India, la
dles and gentlemen, I witnessed a
strange disappearance. am going to
reproduce that disappearance this
evening, and 1 trust that it NAV inter

The cover is taken off. showing the
