A Quiet Wedding Which Took Place
on Saturday Evening.

II. Smith Of Kendall and Annie
Richard of Utica were married at the
Methodist parsonage on Saturday ev-
ening by the Rev. w. A. Winters. The
bride arrived in Lewistown a few
hours previous to the ceremony and
was met by Mr.. Smith. who arrived
on the Kendall coach. After the GER
emory. which was performed In the
presence of the brother of the bride
and a few friends, a pleasant social
time was spent at the parsonage I'M
til the bride and groom left for their
apartments at the American House.
Mr.. Smith is an energetic and well
known business man of Kendall,
where he conducts a general me.-
chandise store. He was formerly in
charge of the Wareham & Reed
butcher shop at that place and at n
time was in business in Utica, where
he met his wife, who is the eldest
daughter of Dudley Richard, a well
known old-timer of that place. The
newly married couple left for Ken
dali by private conveyance on Mon
day, at which place the groom owns
a comfortable and well furnished res.
idence. The newly married couple
have many friends in Fergus county
who, in conjunction with the ARGUS.
tender their congratulations and wish
them every success in life.

side of two weeks and in considera-
ton of the fact that the district is be-
ing rapidly settled up, the matter
would call for some consideration.
The nearest trading point TO where
there is a road Is Malta. and the
ranchers have an arrangement be.
tween themselves whereby the mail
is left, for distribution, at Kismet,
near the mouth Of the Musselshell.
This is a very uncertain arrangement
and there is no doubt but that II the
residents of that district would cir
culate a petition for the establish
ment OF a mail route It would receive
plenty of support. The proposed
route would be from either Roy or
Maginnis for forty-fve miles north
east passing Valentine springs and
taking in a large area of country now
entirely without mail facilities. There
are absolutely no roads in that sec.
ton and the ranchers say that they
are willing to work their road taxes
out on their own roads, which could
in that name be placed in decent
shape with a little assistance from the
county.
Mr.. Nielsen also states that 1t Is
rumored that Christian & Kirby. a
Texas cattle outfit. intend to move
10000 head of cattle on to Crooked
creek in the near future.

Lewistown Elks Intend Going to Salt
Lake Next August in Up.
to-pate Style.
THEY ANTICIPATE A BIG TIME
Estimated That Seven Hundred Of the
Montana Herd Will Take In
the conclave.

Five months in advance of the meet.
ing of the grand lodge of Elks at
Salt Lake City August 18th, Montana
Elks are getting a move on" and tina.
they are not slow is amply proven by
the action taken by the Lewistown
Elks Saturday evening.
The occasion is looked upon as a
chance OF a life time to visit the
home of Mormondom in style and to
imbibe freely of the waters OF the
Great Salt Lake, as well as every.
thing else in sight. A majority of
the Elks, 1t is surmised, will go for
the purpose OF taking a bath, while
others have been there before and
know what good things there ara
among the Mormons.
The general state committee Is now
making arrangements for the attend.
ance of some seven hundred OF the
Montana herd, to go by special train
from Butte August 10th, returning
there on the 18th. Requests for spec.
ial Pullman sleepers are already be.
ing filed with the Pullman
and the demand promises to be large.
ly in excess of the supply. As hotel
accommodations in Salt Lake are lin
tied many special trains will be lef.
on the side tracks, providing a home
for the excursionists. and the com.
mittee assures the members that
these tracks can be found without 4
guide and that the water mains run
on the same streets.
Saturday evening a Salt Lake club
was formed among members of the
Lewistown lodge who expect to at.
tend the meeting and arrangements
for the journey will be promptly un-
dertaken. 1t was unanimously voted
to charter at once a special a
from Butte to Salt Lake and return.
which will furnish accommodations for
the boys and their wives.
Those who have already signiiea
their intention of going are: F. +
Smith, Halsey r. Watson, l.. w. ED.
ridge or Edward Brassey, j. C. Bebb.
Edmund Wright, Walter Knight, w.
c. Draper, S. C.. Weaver, G. ]. Bach,
David Hilger or G. w. Cook. w. ID.
| Symmes, G. J. Wiedeman and F. w.
| Sheldon. while 1t Is certain that this
number will be largely increased be-
fore the day arrives for departure.
1t has been suggested that j.. r.
Cooks automobile be chartered for the
trip to Harlowton and Mr.. Sheldon
guarantees that the excursionists
will find it a down hill pull from there
to Lombard.
Aside from arranging for this eX-
~cursion the Elks Saturday night
chose officers for the ensuing year as
follows:
Exalted Ruler. Edmund Wright;
Esteemed Leading Knight, D.. +

The Slayer Of Danneaux Tried In the
District Court Last Week and
Convicted Of Msnslaughter.
ASSAULT WAS A BRUTAL ONE
Struck the Deceased With a Six
shooter Several Times and Then
Jumped on His Breast

The case Of the State VS.. Paul Gou-
let was tried In the district court on
Friday and Saturday and resulted in
the defendant being convicted of man.
slaughter and the penalty being fixed
at ten years, the limit, by the jury.
The affair is a case of a particu.
larry brutal assault committed by
Goulet upon the person Of Frank Dan
neaux, Jr., which took place after a
breed dance at the Danneaux home,
on n Of the N Bar ranches, and
which resulted in the death of Dan
neaux.
Frank Gardape, the principal wit
ness for the state, said that he was
with Frank Danneaux when the fight
occurred about January 9Th. The
trouble. he said, took place at a sheep
ranch on which Danneaux was living,
about IL miles northeast of the N
Bar ranch and a short distance be.
low Chase's sawmill. There had
been a dance there the night before,
said the witness, and in the morning
when Goulet started for home he met
Roger Boshon a short distance from
the house and stopped to talk with
him. He said that Danneaux, who
had been drinking, ran out of the
house. caught Goulet by the throat
and commenced to choke him. There
upon. Gardape said. he ran out and
told Danneaux that if he wanted to
fight, to fight him (Gardape). The
witness stated that Danneaux left
Goulet and commenced an assault on
him. Goulet thereupon took off his
coat and drawing his ~sixshooter
struck Danneaux on the head from be-
hind and knocked him down. While
the injured man was on the ground
Goulet struck him again and jumped
on his breast. The witness said that
the weapon used was a Al caliber re.
~volver. After the wounded man hal
lain on the ground for several min
utes, the witness stated that Mrs.
Danneaux. himself and Roger Boshon
carried him into the house and laid
him on the bed.
Other facts connected with the case
are that Danneaux, whose skull was
badly fractured, steadily grew ors
and died on January Gath, after hav-
ing been taken to the poor farm for
treatment, which failed to benefit him.
The facts set forth by this witness
were corroborated by Roger Boshon
and John Longevin, and on the de-
PENDANT being placed on the stand to
testify in his own behalf he recited
almost the same story, with the en-
ception that he stated that he struck
the deceased from the front and not
from the real The defendant said
that he struck the blows as the re-
suit of the assault commenced by
Danneaux.
The ease was given to the jury a.
3 D. m. and at $50 p. m. a verdict
was arrived at and handed to the
court. At the first ballot six of the
Jury were for second degree and six
for murder, and a compromise was
eventually made which resulted in
the returning of a verdict OF man.

kiss of reconciliation has been given and returned, and the hands of COlum- bia rest in benediction on the bowed heads of the two brothers as together they kneel at the sacred altar of com mon country.
 Nor is this the only unity for which we have occasion to give thanks. Long ages ago the psalmist sang. Behold now good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity" The growing feeling of good will among the children of God awakens sentiments Of profound gratitude to God. There is a theory. whether sci entifc or only sentimental it matters not. to the effect that there is a point of harmony at which all the sounds of earth blend in the sweet strains of na- lures anthem of praise. Whether this be true CT not, there is a point of har- mony at which all the children of God can meet. That point is the new birth. This is what Jesus meant when he prayed, Father, that they all may be one as we are one''-that they may all be of one nature as we are of one na- turc. Given this. the rest will come for which he prayed when he said: That they all may be perfected into onc''-that they may grow up into q unity of effort as well as of nature. i Thank God that more and mere, as the | years go by. Christians are learning to | recognize and treat one another as children of a common Father. He whc said through his beloved disciple, Lit tie children. love one anothsr,' looks down from heaven and smiles upon a meeting like this. Angel eyes are wet i with tears of joy when the children of | God. forgetting their differences. unite | their voices in grateful praise to the | bountifuI giver of every good. or join 1 their hands in a. common cause. I may not pause to speak at length ! of the material wealth that the current year is pouring into the lap of the land in return for it's labor. Suffice it to say that. in the east. there is a great car famine. The great railroad com panies have not cars enough to move ! the crops. so abundantly has the soil | responded to the toll of the tillcr. Everywhere the song of the harvest 1 home makes vocal the autumn air. Quiet contentment sits in Comport by the blazing hearthstone. The silvery ! tones of ruddy-faced mirth ring out Tn the halls of joy. Over all, with hands outstretched in benediction, broods the white-winged angel of peace. And his children cry:
 70 give thanks unto the Lord, for he
 is good;
 For his loving kindness endureth for
 ever!"
