Vast Body of High Grade Cyanide
Ore Has Been Opened Up By
Diamond Drill Operations.
PROSPECTS FOR A LARGE Mill
Owners Said to Have Been Offered
Quarter of a Million Dollars
for the Property.

Kendall, June 19.-Despite the efforts
concerning the enormous strike of
high grade cyanide ore on the Bullard
property north of this town are grad
ually leaking out and it is now assured
that the strike is the finest vet made
in the North Moccasin mountains.
Many unconfirmed rumors are abroad
but the real facts show that in size
and richness the ore body already op-
ened up is as fine as anything ever dis
covered in the state of Montana.
The Bullard property lies north and
east of the famous Barnes King prop
critics and consists of $50 acres of
land Several months ago John J.
Bullard, the owner of the property,
went to ST. Paul and organized a COM
pany with a capital stock of S500,000.
The company took over the property
Mr.. Bullard receiving a substantial
sum of money and retaining several
thousand SndfeS Oh the SlOch u the
company The gentlemen who became
interested in the proposition have the
money with which to thoroughly ex-
plot the ground and as SOON as ar
rangements could be made, f. S. Wei
denborner, president and treasurer of
the company, came to Kendall and
started to work developing the prop
erty by means of a diamond drill.
Three holes We're sunk as deep as the
says were kept secret until recently
when the correspondent of the Demo-
crat learned of them from an author
itative source At depth of fifty feet
the ore was assaying from $4 to $40.
At depth of $50 feet a magnificent
body of high grade cyanide ore was en-
countered. 1t assays on an average of
S22 a ton and there seems to be no end
to the ore.
were obtained in all three of the holes
sunk and as the holes are close to a
quarter of a mile apart. the area of
ground developed is large.
1t is rumored that one of the large
mining companies has offered an
even quarter of million dollars for
the property sit stands but this hum
or cannot be definitely verified
A big cyanide mill en- tue property
within the next tWG.ye months is more
than a probability. The next work will
be the sinking of a shaft and While
this is being put down. the owners OF
the property Will be looking further
into the mill site proposition. The in
tention seems to be to put up first
class mill with large capacity. There
are two good mill sites on the property
and all of the water required can be
secured from the Big Spring near
which one of the diamond drill holes
is located

Chair Maker Who Lived in Tent On
Fifth Avenue Must Face Ser
iOus Charge.
TRIES TO RUIN LITTLE GIRLS.
Many Children EntiCed to His Tent
But He Fails to Accomplish
DdStdrdIy Crime.

Alfred Vanhazandanlkc, the man who
has been living in a tent on Fifth ave-
nue. for the last six or eight months,
was arrested last Thursday on the
charge of assault in the second degree,
the warrant for his arrest having been
sworn out by County Attorney Ayers.
His bond was fixed at 81 900 and as he
was unable to furnish this amount, he
was remanded to the custody of the
sheriff and is now lying in Jail wait
ing for his preliminary hearing which
will be held within a few days.
The charge against Vanhazandankc
is a most serious one, and if it is PROV
en-, he stands an excellent chance of
spending a term in the state institu-
ton located at Deer Lodge. 1t is al
legged that for several weeks past he
has been enticing little girls into his
tent and making indecent proposals to
them.
Latterly he has made his proposals
more forcible, and Thursday evening,
it is charged, made an attempt to
rape a little seven year old daughter of
we'll known citizen. The child
screamed and he permitted her to leave
the tent She informed her parents
and the warrant was sworn out as
above stated.

Glengary Baseball Team Has Little
Trouble AnneAing Scalp of the
Local Ball Team.
HITS. RUNS. ERRORS AND DUST
Visiting Team Gets Most of the Hits
and RunS---leWiStown Pile Up
the Errors.

The Juniors of LeWistown and the
Glengary base ball team met on the
diamond in this city Sunday afternoon
ana the boys from the country once
brothers in the dirt. 1t was a rather
good game from the standpoint of the
spectator, hits, runs, errors, dust and
good plays combining to keep things
moving all Of the time The score
keeper started ont to Keep run OF the
game according to the league rules for
scoring, but the errors, bungles and
tallies came too fast for him ana he
had to content himself with marking
down the runs.
1t did not require very long pencil
to mark down the scores Of the local
aggregation as they managed to make
the rounds but five times. but some
graphite was consumed in getting
down the circlets Of the green costum-
ed lads from the outside Fifteen
times did they complete the rounds
before the last man WAS out in the
ninth.
The GlenEary boys have got together
a team Of more than average playing
ability. They show team work in the
field and the way they pummel the
sphere to the distant gardens is
enough to cause the Lewistown twirl-
ers to take to the far away timber.
Dick Baker started in TO do the
throwing for the locals but the visitors
got II little too familiar with his deliv
cry and he voluntarily went to th'
| stable after the fifth inning, Carleton
taking his place. Carleton started ou

MONTANA HAS fine EXHIBIT.
Treasure State Makes Great Showing
at Lewis and Clarke Exposition.

Portland, June 15.-The early visitor
to the Lewis and Clark exposition Is
impressed with the fact that while the
promise that the buildings would be
ready for the opening day may have
been substantially kept, the promise
evidently did not extend to the exhib-
its.
In practically every one of the build
ings except the government building
the exhibits are still in course of in
stallation and there is much vacant
space. This is the result of the failure
of the exhibits to arrive in many cases.
For instance, a large part of the Mon
tana educational exhibit is still on the
way, although it was shipped more
than three weeks ago. This part of
Montana's exhibit is in the foreign
building, and is in charge of Miss
Dinsmore of Butte and Miss Bellinger
Of BOzeman. They have made very
attractive showing with what they
have. and as soon as the balance of
the exhibit arrives and everything is
in place the educational part of the
Montana exhibit will prove most at
tractive point of interest for the visit
or from that state. Misses Bellinger
and Dinsmore are also preparing rest
room for the Montana visitors. This
will be ready in a few days

County Attorney Roy T. Ayers Files
Three Additional Complaints
Against Bank Clerk.
THE FIRST PRELIMINARY HEARING
Will Be Held Before Justice MCFar.
land This Afternoon at 2 O'Clock
---Case Will Be Pushed.

Three additional charges were filed
against E,rrett l.. Smith, the former
bookkeeper of the Bank of Fergus
County, last night, County Attorney
Roy E. Ayers swearing to the three
complaints. The complaints charge
Smith with the larceny of $500 from
the institution for which he worked.
1t is alleged that on the 18th of April,
he appropriated $lO0; on the 18th, $500.
and on the 18th, $500. This makes four
complaints filed against the young
man. The first, which was filed about
three weeks ago, charged the misap-
preparation of $500, making the total
5000.
Smith was arrested by Deputy
Sheriff Firman Tullock about 9 o'clock
last night and his bond was fixed at
$1,000 in each case, or $4,000 in all Be-
ing unable to furnish the required
bond last evening, he was remanded
to the custody of the sheriff.
The later developments of the case
make the Dredicament of the young
bank clerk more serious than was at
first thought. His friends have main
tanned that he would be able to get
the affair settled up but when asked
concerning the prospect for a settle
ment of the difficulties. County At
torney Ayers this morning gave the
following statement to the Democrat:
Some people seem to be laboring
under the mistaken impression that
this matter can be settled up and that
the reason it has been continued is the
pending of a settlement. Such an idea
is erroneous and should not be enter
tanned. l can no more overlook this
matter and permit it to be settled
than could overlook the charge of the
stealing of horse or any other plain
every day crime. Larceny is what
smith is charged with and he will
have to stand trial for the same
Smiths preliminary hearing on the
first charge will he held before Justice
Mcfarland this afternoon at o'clock.
Harry II. Boggs is attorney for the
defendant
Later: Errett l.. Smith appeared he
fore Justice Mcfarland at 2:30 o'clock
and waived preliminary hearing in all
four of the cases against him and his
oond was fixed by the justice at

Cheadle but the writ was denied. The
manufacturing company for which
Hodedon is an agent is now deter
mined to fight the case to the highest
court. An application for a writ of

probably next Thursday. Attorneys
Huntoon and DeKalb will likely go to
Helena to argue the matter before the

ers will probably go to look after the

The defense base their contentious
for writ of habeas corpus on the
ground that the statute which Hodg-
don IS accused of having violated is
unconstitutional in that it is d revenue
measure and all revenue measures
must originate in the house of repre-
sentatives, whereas this bill was origi-
mated in the senate Of the state legis-
lature. II is also alleged that as there
Is no penalty prescribed for the viola
ton Of the statute, the court has no
right to infiict a punishment
