BIC CAME FORFEITED
Barring of Umpire Gives Base
 ball Contest to Chicago.
NEW YORK TEAM PUTS IN l CLAIM
Wants Player to Act as Judge When Police Shut Out Omcial - Men From Western City Rs-
 fused to Paay.

NEW YORK, Aug. & - Something unique in baseball occurred here when the game which was to have been play ed as the third of the present series between the New York and Chicago National league clubs did not take place on the Polo grounds Each club claims that the other forfeited, so 1t Is up to the national directors to straighten out matters, and lengthy wrangle is bound to ensue. So far as the National league can chronicle the unplayed game. at present, Chicago has been officially declared the winner, 9 to 0. by forfeit.
 At the preceding game, the second of the series, there was good deal of i'll feeling shown on both sides on ac- count of decisions rendered by Umpire Johnstone. When JohnstOne and Ems lie. the umpires assigned by President Pulliam, arrived at the entrance to the Polo grounds Johnstone was refused admittance by the police, and Emslie. who accompanied him. declined to of- hciate so long as his associate was not allowed to perform his official function. Johnstone then declared the game forfeited by New York to Chica- go, passing his decision on the local clubs refusal to admit him to the grounds.
 The crowd, which numbered about 11,000, wondered at the delay and yell ed Play ball!" repeatedly while Man. agers McGraw and Chance held con sultation. McGraw called upon his utility man, Strang. to ofiiciate as um- pire. Chance refused to appoint man from his team to act in conjunction with Strang saying that the game had been forfeited under the rules. Presi- dent Charles Murphy of the Chicago club then took a hand in the much mixed proceedings. and after he had spoken a few words to Chance the Chicago players left the grounds.
 A few minutes later an announcer jumped from the grand stand and said that he had been requested by the New York club to make the following state ment:
 Umpire Johnstone was barred from these grounds by Police Inspector Sweeney, who feared that the presence of Johnstone might incite to a riot. Umpire Johnstone has declared the game forfeited by New York to Chica- go, 9 to O."
 Later on the announcer again ad- dressed the crowd, which by this time was scattered over the diamond and outfield, saying, T am instructed by Manager McGraw to say that he hav- ing sent Strang out as an umpire and the Chicago team having ignored his calling on them to play ball. the game under the rules is forfeited by Strang to New York, 9 to o, and the New York club will protest the claim of the visiting club"
 Rain checks bad been issued prior to the game, and the patrons of the club were informed that these checks would be good for any other game on these grounds during the present seAson.
 Police Inspector Sweeney, when seen later on, said that he had not taken the initiative in preventing Umpire Johnstone from entering the grounds and added that 1t was at the request of the management of the New York club that he had acted as he did.

MISSIONARY IS
TO LOCATE HERE

Rev. Leonard ). Chrest'er, late
OF st. Peters Episcopal church oI
Auburn, N. Y, has been engaged by
Bishop Brewer as resident mission
ary for the Milk River valley and will
make this city his future home Rev.
Chrestler is expected from the east
early in March and from that time
will devote his energies to the work in
this section, having In his charge the
churches at Havre, Chinook, Harlem
Glasgow and Malta. He is highly
spoken Of as speaker and an earnest
worker and 1t will be highly crafty
ing to episeopalians of this city as
well as the other places within his
charge to learn of the arrangements
which will bring him here.
After the services Monday evening,
4 business meeting was held and COM
nittees appointed to further the work.
Charles .. Box and Mr.. Wilson were
named to solicit subscriptions for the
;'ergyman's salary, it being agreed
that the patrons OF the church in this
city are to subscribe $25.OO per month
and to furnish residence for the
clergyman.
H. w. Stringfellow was appointed
to secure q place for holding services.
II Is understood that there is some
talk, as yet of an indefinate nature,
to purchase lot and erect a rectory,
but nothing will be done this year i'll
all probability. A Sunday school will
be organized soon as regular sery-
ices are begun here
There are approximately about So
Episcopalians in the city and many
others who will be glad to attend
church services so that it seems likely
that the proposed plans will meet wit
hearty endorsement and assistance an
that another active church organiza-
ton will eventually be added to the
city of Havre.

IRRIGATION MEETING A BIG SUCCESS
GREAT NORTHERN engine
SHOT THE CHUTES HERE

The Great Northern road is having
no end uf bad luck with its engines
on this line and yesterday capped the
climax when an engine at the coal
sheds, Icing used temporarily because
OF the hoisting engine being out of or
der, took it into its head to do little
acrobatic work.
In some manner the locomotive car
rying the loaded cars into the chute
was not checked in time and it went
4 little over the limit Of the short run
up the incline, broke over the rails
and plunged down into the pit be-
low carrying considerable of the ma
used in hosting with it. No
one was injured and the iron horse
lay quietly while it was being exam
ined to discover whether or not any
bones were bbroken. The damage to
the machinery is considerable.

IMPROVEMENT IN
RANGE HORSES

According to horse buyers who ha1 G
lately visited this section from the
east looking up suitable horses fur
draft anG livery purposes, the class
OF range horses is much improved and
Montana is furnishing the ca te n
markets tough, good sized individ-
ua' animals which bring Top prices
and are being disposed of readily.
Not long ago well known rancher
living ju&G over the Montana line from
Williston, sold from his ranch $4,000
worth of horses and these were not
the pick of his bunch by any means.
In talking with a prominent rancher
Herald representative is informed
that the size and bone of the range
horses now being bred is due to the
fact that @ better class of stations
has been introduced into the herds
during The past few years. It is no
trouble to find range horses weigh
ing from LOO to 1,400 lbs. now. AID
some heavier than that Where buy
ers We're wont to look for this class
OF general purpose horses in Iowa
and other middle west states in the
past they are now coming to Montana

RICH FIND
IN ALASKA

That It takes Yankee brains and in
cidentally Montana brains at that, to
note an opportunity and to take ad-
vantege Of 1t is demonstrated by an
item Of news which appears in the
Cheyenne Tribune, telling OF the good
luck or rather Of the enterprise of a
former veil known citizen Of this
state located at one time at Bridger.
The Tribune says:
Because he decided to take his
bride to Alaska on their honeymoon
trip r. p. Mcdonald, Of this place,
will probably become a millionaire in
g few years, according to a letter re-
ceived here from him by w. Dean.
Mcdonald has just left Seattle for
Alaska taking with him steamboat
and complete outfit Of mining mach
inery. During his first trip he dis
covered number Of very rich and ex
tensive eoal deposits in Alaska so sit
uated that the natives refused to mine
the coal but continued to await the
advent of railroad. With Yankee
foresight he saw the possibilities of
the find in country like Alaska whe,
coal frequently brings as high price
in the market as rich gold quartz He
returned to Seattle, purchased
steamboat which has draft of but
four feet of water and with this is
taking the mining machinery direct to
the deposits, which are accessible
from the sea and within short time
will be taking larga boatloads of fuel
to the Alaska towns and selling it at
fancy prices and many times the cost
of production"

SUCCESS OF
BOHEMIAN A. c,

Mr.. Paul Montgomery, SON of Nor
rls Montgomery, the we'll known
dairyman OF Chinook, was a guest of
friends ir the city the fore part OF
the week enroute home for the holi-
day vacation from the agricultural col
lege at Rozeman. Paul has been in
attendance at the college about three
months and is well pleased with his
work there.
The demand among the leading
ranchers of the state for graduates
of the school is far in excess of the
supply and this year will witness the
largest graduating class in the hist
ory of the institution.
Mr.. Montgomery is taking course
in dairying and will eventually take
charge OF the ranch of his father
near Chinook. It is the plan to in
crease the herd and go into dairying
On a larger scale.
There las been large fall of snow
in the vicinity of Bozeman and the
sleighlns has been excellent for sew
eral weeks past. The weather has
been ideal and the students are COM
bining pleasure with study in the
sports incident to a Montana winter.

RAWH|DE JACK
IS ARRESTED

Jack Weatherly, known in this
section as "Rawhide Jack" and one
OF the hest known COW punchers in
the staa:e, is In trouble. Stock In
spector George w. Hall came in from
Malta Wednesday evening where he
placed Weatherly under arrest upon
warrant charging him with horse
stealing and he Is now incarcerated in
the city Jail awaiting the arrival of
the Canadian authorities where he is
wanted fer alleged acts of horse steal
ing, performed at diverse times during
the past two years.
A warrant had been issued for him
in this state as well and it will soon
be decided whether on not the Can
adian authorities have a prior claim
to him as the officers from there are
expected here this week.
Weatherly has been under suspic-
ion for some time but it is one thing
to suspect man and another to
catch him with the goods on him"
and 1t Is claimed that this has not
been accomplished in this case al
though it is alleged a strong case will
be made out against the COW puncher.
The charges against him, it is un-
derstood, are that he has been pick
ing out horses from bands on this
side and taking them across the
border 70" disposal. When approach
ed by the officer at Malta he offered
no resistance and professed his inno-
cence of the crime charged to him.

WILL ENGAGE
IN ICE BUSINESS

Il. F, Raymond, popularity known to
many friends and acquaintances as
"Thad," is preparing to engage in the
business on an extensive scale. Some
years ago he took up claim near
the city and irrigated the same by
means of q ditch extending to his
ranch from Beaver creek. A good
sized reservoir was excayated upon
his ranch and it Is his plan to put up
from 1000 to 1900 tons of ice this
winter, erect ice houses for it and
distribute the same to customers in
the city during the season. The wat
er from Beaver creek comes pure and
sparkling from the mountains and
the ice product will be of the best
quality. His large circle of acaua Mt
ances and friends in this city should

Out at Minot Wednesday, the turn

had it not been for the old turn table

new, one, they would still be taking a
lay-off. The old turn table from here
was quickly put aboard a special

Or congress arose in connection with

throw open the southern part of the
Blackfeet reservation. This led TO
the proposal by the indian bureau
tc open the entire reservation to set

are aware, is partly bounded on the
northeast by Cut Bank and ON the
southeast by Birch creek. The In
