Deer Lodge, Mont, last spring for the
murder of his father, Oliver Dotson,
whose death the younger Dotson con-
spired to bring about while serving a

Earthquake Shock Is Felt Throughout

Helena, Mont, March 17-Shortly
before 10 o'clock yesterday morning
seismic disturbances were felt
throughout the mountain region OF
Montana. There were two distinct
shocks which lasted fully fifteen sec
onds each. The vibrations were felt
southeast to northwest. Beyond shak-
ing dishes from shelves, stopping
clocks and breaking nantes in gas
burners, little damage was done. This
is the third earthquake experienced in
Montana within ten years, but it was
considerably milder than the last one,
FIVE years ago, which destroyed chin
