SEyEN.UP PETE GULCH
why IL Is So Called by the Hardy
Miners.

NAlutEes
"The report Of the contamination of
large mining deal in Seven.up Pete Gulch
last week reminds me of what was prob
ably the most remarkable game of seven-up
ever played in the state of Montana" said
an old-tme miner
Peter Scharf was in the early days
wellknown mining man. Prosperity did
not agree with him, however. That is,
money burned in his pockets. He appeared
never to be satisfied with sheer money, no
matter what the amount He wanted action
all the time In other words, he was an
inveterate gambler.
'He had some placer claims in the Black
foot country north Of Helena, and after his
cleanup, had come to town. exchanging
his dust for cash and started out to buck
the tiger, after having taken the precaution
to purchase a supply of provisions.
'He had quite a run of luck, and at one
time was several thousand dollars ahead.
After an intermittent sitting of a week or
ten days, however he went fiat broke, and
hitching up his team to the wagon load of
provisions departed for his mountain
home, to wash out another fortune.
Arriving at the main divide or crest of
the Rockies Pete met another miner en-
route to town, whose season had been less
fortunate than his He had in fact just
about enough dust to pay for the next years
provisions.
Exchanging a few casual remarks, dur
ing which this fact was brought out, Pete's
mania for gambling led him to make the
proposition that as they we're both in about
the same financial condition they play
game of seven up to see which one should
possess all the provisions dust and teams.
81 do not remember the other fellows
name, but at any rate he assented and the
game began, the men playing on log lying
at the side Of the road. AT first the cards
favored Pete and he began to speculate on
returning to town and recouping his losses
at faro
The game stood three to nothing In
Pete's favor, when, to his dismay, the other
fellow scored high low and the game. The
next hand Pete made high game to his op.
ponents low. The following deal favored
Pete's opponent in like manner, and the
game was now a tie, to 8.
1t was his adversary's deal, and Pete,
after scanning his cards, announced that he
would stand. His adversary said
What have you for high? giving up in
despair as he had not a trump.
Nothing, replied Pete.
It's your play, then, came the reply.
Both wanted but one point to win, and
game was the only one out. Pete lost the
game by one, turned his wagon, team and
provisions over to the other fellow and
started up the gulch, entering the road at
that place on a prospecting tour. Thus the
gulch achieved its name, Seven-up Pete
Gulch
Pete upon being asked why he stood
without trump, said; I thought he'd turn
jack on me and go7out. And sure enough
the seventh card was a jack. Pete did well
on his tour and washed out a great many
dollars in the gulch that bears his name"

AN ASSASSIN
SHOOTS A NEGRO
At Middleton in this Coun-
ty on Saturday Night,
About 6 o'clock.

A negro man, Jack Cannon, who
works on the railroad and lives at Ma.
bleton in this county, on Saturday
night last about 8 O'Clock while seated
at his table, eating his supper, was
shot through the head by an assassin
who stood outside and shot through a
window. Buckshot were used, and
only one shot hit the negro, passing
through his temple. He fell to the
floor in dying condition, blood spout
ing from the ghastiy wound in great
profusion,. He was alive Sunday, but
it was impossible for him to live many
hours.
Sheriff d. d. Dunn went to the scene
as soon as he was notified and arrested
Mr.. Q. @. Daniel, white man, and
brought him to Marietta and placed
him IN Jail charged with committing
the crime, which he denies.
The arrest was based on information
furnished by the neighbors, who state
that Daniel had made threats against
the negro because Of some trouble be-
tween them. 1t is also stated that
Daniel was seen going in the direction
of the negro's house about $50 O'Clock
with double barrel shot gun, shot
was heard in that direction and about
O'Clock Daniel was seen returning with
his gun.
Sheriff Dunn found an exploded shell
on the ground near the negro's cabin,
and at Daniell's house found a double
barrel shot gun with one barrel having
been recently discharged.

CAN YOU HAVE A
HAPPY CHRISTMAS 2
Not Unless You are Just
Before You are Gen.
erOuS.

The custom of making people gener-
erous in the matter of giving Christmas
presents before they are just in paying
their debts is far from right.
A dressmaker who was recently de-
ploring the fact that she had little or
no money with which to buy Christmas
presents for her friends and family this
year, said that she had been doing a
splendid business, and would feel very
comfortable about spending some
money if she could only collect what
was due her. Then she went on to tell
how, last year, she made superb gown
for wealthy woman, paying for many
of the trimmings and materials herself.
When it was completed, the customer
said: ''This is Christmas present. Is
it not beautiful one?"
AT that time did not know" says
the dressmakes, "that it was who was
making the present, but l realized it
keenly when many months had passed
by and could not collect a cent of my
money. And have never collected it.
And to think what it would buy if l
could only get it now"
A physician tells the story of one of
his patients who showed him, with great
pride, diamond crescent and bertha
of rare lace given her by her husband
for Christmas present. at was en-
tirely due to my clever management
that received such n handsome pres
ent," she told him. II knew that if
my husband saw your big bill before
Christmas, he would feel obliged to give
me something very simple and so, as l
was wild for lace and diamonds, / hid
your bill beneath the ribbons in my
bureau drawer, and told him you would
probably not send it in until the first of
the year"
Fortunately, such cases of deception
as this is rare, but the wilful spending
in one direction of money honestly owed
in another is equally as great sin, a
sin that should weigh so heavily on the
conscience that it's bearer could not find
his Christmas happy one.

HOT FROM TIE FRONT.
A War Correspondent AID His story
of Great Event.


Newsgathering, not fighting, is the
trade of the war correspondent. But
it is news at any personal cost, and q
fine unprecedented heroism often goes
with the gathering of it.
One morning after the siege of Paris,
Iwhen the city was believed in London
to be still in the hands of the COM
mune, Sir John Robinson, manager of
the Daily News of London, reached
his office to find the late Archibald
Forbes lying on the floor asleep, his
head on postoffice directory, while
the printers were hard at work on his
manuscript, the story of paris In
Flames" most vivid description of
the last days of the commune.
FORBES had telegraphed from Dover
announcing his coming" said Sir John
Robinson, 1.-THE printers had been wait
ing, and thus the country heard of
those terrible days for the first time.
London was ablaze with excite
ment. Bouverie street was impossible
through the newsboys shrieking for
