SMITH LEFT HOME
FOR FAIR MON TANA
HE WAS HEADED FOR TWIN BRIDGES
WHEN LAST HEARD OF AND
NOW HE is GONE.

Mrs. Margaret Smith of No. 74o Tenth
avenue, New York, has written to Chief OF
Police Reynolds and asked him to assist
her in obtaining some news of her hus-
band. w. J. Smith, formerly employed as
a decorator at Carnegie hall, who on Sep
tcmber 80 started West to look after
gold mine near Twin Bridges, in which
he was interested.
Since his departure Mrs. Smith has re-
cciycd but two letters from her husband,
one dated Chicago, the other from Ogden,
Utah, OH October g. Since the last letter
came she has been unable to obtain any
trace of his movements, and although he
had with him but a few hundred dollars
she fears he may have met with foul
play.
Before Smiths departure from New
York it was arranged for him to meet
Nick Hughes, his partner in the mining
property at Butte. Hughes lives at No.
2a4 Main street, Butte. He stated to
Chief Reynolds that he met the train on
which Smith was expected to arrive, but
that Smith was not on it.
There is some mystery surrounding the
disappearance OF ohiilH' ahu Sniei MY
nolds, Jerry Murphy and several New York
detectives are working hard to clear the
matter up.
It is stated positively that Smith had
no reason for running away The prop
erty near Twin Bridges in which he and
Hughes were interested had developed
into valuable mine, and no mean fortune
awaited the New York man.
In his last letter to his wife Smith
wrote: "Ran into ncavy snowstorm in
Rocky Mountains. Had hard time get
ting through. Train now twelve hours
late. Due in Salt Lake City at 6 a. m

SPECIAL. TO THE INTER MOUNTAIN.
Chicago. Nov. 2o.-One thing that is
daily becoming more evident in the realm
where pugilsts hold sway is that the ranks
OF the middleweights, or light heavics, as
many OF them are now termed. are being
gradually thinned out and before long it
will be possible to determine with some
degree OF certainty just who is entitled to
the championship honors.
When Tommy Ryan defeated Kid Carter
he proved himself to be a good man. Since
that fight Carter has had his measure taken
by Jack Root, and now Root has scored
victory over another man of his class,
Marvin Hart, the Louisville fighter, who
was short time ago mentioned as all
opponent for Kid Mccoy.
There are those who believe that if
Tommy Ryan would consent to meet Root
George Gardner and the others Of the same
caibcr to meet him at catchweights, that
he could easily assert his supremacy.
Tommy, however, insisted that Carter
come down to i5S, and it is not likely
therefore that he will get match with
either. Kid Mccoy then is about the only
one left who would constitute worthy
opponent for Ryan. Mccoy has practically
beaten Ryan three times already, so that is
apparently out of the question. Then, too,
inasmuch as Mccoy has not been heard
from for some time, ii is reasonable to
assume that he has probably come to the
conclusion that his fighting days are over.
The recent Root-Hart contest was a
vicious affair and served to illustrate that
both are game fighters. Root displayed a
great amount OF scientific skill, but even
Chicago sports, generally a conservative
set, arc willing to admit that he lacks the
delicate finishing touches of either Ryan
or Mccoy. When the class of middle
weights narrows down to the few it will
be interesting TO watch the progress of each
candidate for championship honors. 1t is
not easy to predict who will ultimately
wear the belt, but it would appear that
Ryan has about as good a chance as any in
the ring today.

some new hat ornaments that are used

Lucretia Cornaro was one Of the most

instead Of going to court. II was natural
therefore, that she should be mixed up In
