Old Timer Passes AWAY.

George Mcclure, one of the first set
tiers in this part of the state, died at
the Schroeder hospital Friday night.
Mcclure has been operating on some
placer ground in Lime gulch in the
North Moccasin mountains for over
twenty years and has succeeded in
making living from the property. A
few years ago he was offered $1,000 in
cash and bond of $4,000 for the
ground but rtfused it. He managed
to accumulate considerable property.
among which was a good ranch near
Kendall. He was born in Maryland
u years ago, according to his story,
but his friends believe that he was
several years older than that. He
came to Montana over forty years ago.
He has no known relatives in this
part of the country. He was buried
Sunday in the city cemetery.

Local Baseball Team Suffer Another
Defeat at the Hands of Their
Country Neighbors.

First Half a Good Game.

If anyone believes that the Glengary
base ball team cannot furnish amuse.
ment for about any other aggregation
in the country they will please inter-
view the Lewistown aggregation and
be convinced. The boys out on the
bench organized a team early in the
year and challenged the local team for
series of games. Several games have
been played and the boys from the
country have walked away with ma
1ority of them. 1t doesn't matter how
we'll the locals play, the green suited
lads always put up just little better
article of ball and come out with the
long end of the scoring.
The locals went out to Glengary
Sunday and played a good game be-
fore fine crowd who gathered to
cheer their heroes on to victory. The
Glengary team lined up about as U.s.
ual ana there were no changes in the
LeWlstoWn lineup. Carlton was in the
boX for the locals and Felix McGinn
did the twirling for Glengary.
For the first five innings it was as
nne a game as one could wish to see
The Lewistown boys got one man
across the plate in the first and were
then shut out for three innings. The,
got another in the fifth, two in the
sixth, shut out in the seventh, four in
the eighth and wound up with one in
the last round.
Carlton had the Glengarys on hi.
staff for the first half of the game. For
three innings they failed to get a man
across the home plate. They squeez-
ed one over in the fourth and, by
means of some good sticking, made
four in the fifth. They added one in
the sixth and then turned loose and
won the game in the seventh. A few
errors got three men on bases and then
Rogers stepped up and landed on
straight one for terrific home run.
This took the heart out of Carlton who
retired in favor of Taylor. TAYLOR
held the men down for the remainder
of the game. The final score was II
to 9.
The features, aside from Rogers
home run. was a fine three base hit by
Morgan with two men on bases. BY a
little sprinting the long fellow could
have made his a four sacker, but he
got tired and got only to the third
cushion. The two teams will have an
other set-to in this city within a few
weeks.

One sample of ore vas taken from

Messrs Stephens and Rosso have not
