How Seth Bullock, superintendent of
the Black Hills forest reserve. personal
friend Of the president and not infre-
quently a guest at the white house and
a noted western character. managed TO
secure a fancy drink in the early DAYS
OF Helena is told by a former resident
OF that city, now Of this. 1t serves to
show. says the Washington Post, that
the age of promotion" is not as young
as is pictured by later date sayants.
1t was in the early '70's, when Hele-
ma was one of the banner placer min
ing camps of the west and gold was be-
ing washed by hundreds of men from
the sands of Last Chance gulch (now
Main street,. Bullock wanted a fancy
drink and did not care to remlnerate
the bartender with a fancy price in
lleu, SO he evolved a plan which
worked to perfection.
Entering the saloon. Bullock said:
t, I'll tell you what let's do.
II YOU will furnish the sherry. III fur
ntsh the fresh eggs, and we will mix
up a drink that is out of sight"
AS eggs were worth two dollars q
dozen, the liquor man decided that il
was a good bargain. although wine was
sold at a stiff figure in those DAYS
Then Bullock went into the grocery
nearby and said TO the proprietor:
W. if you will furnish the eggs
I'll furnish the sherry and we will have
something worth while in the line of
fancy drinks"
The grocer agreed to furnish the
eggs and a few minutes later both en-
tered the liquor house. The concoc-
ton was duly prepared and the three
began to absorb It.
As Seth swallowed his share, an
idea struck the bartender.
Say" demanded he. turning upon
Seth. where do you come in on his
game anyway? W has furnished
eggs and have supplied the Iinuor
How do you get in?"
"Oh. I'm the promoter" replied nul-
lock with a smile.
