JAMES FAMOUS SCHOONER PASS
ES INTO NEW HANDS-MAY GO
on GEOLOGICAL CRUISE.

The schooner Salvation Lassie, the
wonder of the waterfront since Captain
John f. James first laid her keel five
or six years ago, has changed owners
She is now the property of w. j. Coop
er, Professor John 5. Donaghho, mas
ter of mathematics of the High School
and one other. The deal was effected
this afternoon and the papers passed,
one hundred dollars in gold being the
purchase price
The Salvation Lassie may be said to
have gone for a song, but Salvation
Lassies are famous for their songs and
Captain James has sold his handiwork
into good hands. Sea-
Captain Cooper is now master of the
Salvation Lassie. Professor Donaghho
in addition to being one Of the leading
educators of the Territory is an au-
thority on geological subjects ond it is
not improbable that in his otherwise
spare hours he will make use Of the
schooner in geological research about
the Oahu coast.
The Salvation Lassie Is q staunch,
thirty-one foot, heavily built schooner
equipped with metal air-tight com
partments. wire rigging and practical

speed she is ideal for a pleasure cruise
or knock-about excursion, just such a
craft as one would desire to go camp

Bad Money
People Are
UnCOnViCted
FEDERAL JURY DISCHARGES AN
OTHER ALLEGED PASSER OF
COUNTERFEIT MONEY.

Two alleged crowd of counterfeiters
of Maui have won out in the first
round with the United states authori-
ties. Night before last, Lee Yong was
acquitted Of the charge of passing
counterfeit gold pieces, and yesterday
afternoon Kim Jung Pat, a Korean,
was acquitted on a similar charge, the
jury in Judge Dole's court being out
not over half an hour.
However the Fedral authorities pro-
pose to continue the prosecution of the
cases and will retry Lee Long on an
other charge.
The bogus $40 pieces that are turned
out on Maui, are of a much better
grade than the usual counterfeit arti-
Gle. To person familiar with United
states gold coins, they might readily
be detected, but on a person not ac-
ouainted with Federal money they
would readily be passed.

BOUND over TO
DISTRICT COURT
PRESS SUMMERS MUST STAND
TRIAL FOR MURDER IN
THE FIRST DEGREE.

The preliminary hearing of Press
oummers, the negro railroad grader
who shot and killed another negro,
Red Dougherty, at Camp 10, near
Straw, Sunday, had his preliminary
hearing before Justice Brassey last
week, the hearing being concluded
Saturday afternoon, and was bound
over without bond, TO the district
court for trial for murder in the
first degree
A large number Of negroes were
brought in from the grading camps
as witnesses at the hearing and the
Jail was crowded with coons for sew
cral days. The state established it's
case with several eye witnesses
In his own defense, Summers
claimed that the shooting was done
in self defense He said that it was
either kill or get killed and he did
not hesitate. He had some witnesses
to support him in his statement Of
the case.
Sheriff Martin yesterday took seven
or eight Of the negroes who are wit
nesses in the case, out to the grading
camp and Ed Ramsey was appointed
special deputy to see that they do
not skip out before the trial. This
will be much cheaper than to keep
them here in Jail

Jack Beebe and Louie Blodgctt
have demonstrated to their own COM
plete satisfaction that Fergus coun-
ty is the original, simon pure "land
of opportunity"
Five years ago this month, the boys
who were then working for moderate
salaries, decided to go into the real
estate business. Accordingly, in
October, 1902, each of them filed on
a homestead about four miles west
of this city. The 32O acres lay in one
tract and up SO high that there never
would be any hope of irrigating
it.
Their friends jollied them great
deal about their ranches and even
men of very superior business judg-
ment in most matters, scoffed at the
idea of the boys making anything
from their venture.
But Louie and Jack went about
their business of improving their
ranches, putting up the buildings
themselves, working Sundays, holi-
days, and during vacation periods.
They invested only what they could
spare from their salaries, which was
not great sum at any time.
They got together few cattle
and made something from them, b t
in 1904 they broke up small patch
and put it in grain. This was the
beginning of their farming operations.

Waite PAYS TOP
PRICE FOR LAMBS
TWELVE THOUSAND PUR-
CHASED FROM SAGE CREEK
AT THREE-FIFTY.

J. D. Waite yesterday closed UP a
deal with the Sage Creek Sheep
company for twelve thousand head
of lambs at price never before
equalled in the state of Montana for
any considerable number of stock
sheep. The Lewistown man gave
$3.50 per head for the lambs, or $42,
600 for the bunch.
The bunch includes some five thou
sand ewes and it was these that Mr..
Waite was especially desirous of Sc
curing as the Sage Creek Sheep COM
pany stock is about the best in the
state. The wethers will be sold next
spring, probably, and the ewes kept
by the purchaser.
This is the beginning of the final
move by the Sage Creek Sheep COM
pany toward dissolution. They re-
Gently disposed OF their big ranch
to a subsidiary company of the
Billings g. Northren Railroad com
pany and will now sell off their sheep.
They have left after the sale of their
lambs, some 10000 head of sheep, but
will have no difficulty in disposing OF
them under present conditions at top
prices.

weeks. If all goes well, the contract
will have have been let within the
next thirty days and the actual work

poses, five story building. The first

different grain fields and but on or
two OF them show any effects Of
frost
Big Wheat Field.
The largest wheat field in the
county is that Of Herman Often,
about two miles southwest Of the
city, on the lower road to Moore.
This field contains some 700 acres of
wheat, which will yield about H.
OOO bushels. One header and several
binders have been at work on this
field for the last ten days or two
weeks and they haven't all of it
down yet
Mr. Often is the largest individual
wheat grower in the county. He has
about 1000 acres and his crop this
year will be close to $4,000 bushels.
Prices Are Firm.
Prices of wheat, oats and hay
promise to be most satisfactory.
Wheat is now IS cents on the local
market and eastern reports indicate
that it will go higher
There seems no doubt but that
oats will command easily dollar per
hundred from the start Of the season
and hay is also going to be in great
demand The outside is going to
draw heavily on the hay stacks of

will doubtless Be shipped out during

the proceeds invested in new mill

Drake and Rae will return prob
ably the latter part of this week

The arrival of John A. Drake and
the announced intention of the North
Moccasin Mining company of putting
a mill on the Santiago property for
the treatment of the ore, has revived
interest in the stock of that sterling
corporation and, a day or two since,
share. A large number of the shares
are held by Lewistown people but
none Of them are letting go as it is
believed that the stock will go to par
within six months.

The next year they put in some
what larger tract. In the meanwhile
they were adding to their original
holdings by picking up an adjoining
one hundred and sixty at low prices
occasionally, until today they have
go acres of land all in one body.
This year they have lS5 acres of
wheat which will yield not less than
4,5OO bushels. They have l25 acres of
oats which will thresh out easily S.
900 bushels and 10 acres of rye, which
will go 80 bushels per acre.
At the lowest, this grain crop will
bring in the two ranchers $500.
Briefly summarized: These two
young men with no capital to speak
of, have in five years built up plant
which cannot be bought for $780,
600 and which will produce at least
$1,000 net profits per year. Mr.
Beebe, owing to his position as
cashier of the Empire Bank and
Trust company. does not devote a
great deal of his time to the ranch
but his partner in the enterprise
Louie Blodgett, devotes his full at
tention to the big farm which is now
one of the most desirable ranching
propositions in Fergus county.

examples or successful dry land farm

ANOTHER RAILROAD STRIKE.
Boilermakers in Several Western
Roads Walk Out.

St. Paul, Sept. IA general strike
of boilermakers on the Chicago Great
Western, Great Northern, Omaha.
Northern Pacific and 500 railroads
was called today and it is expected
that before night the shops of the
entire systems of these roads will be
tied up.
The boilermakers are aided in their
fight by their helpers, and in the
case of the Great Western, the ma
chinists i'll the big shops at Oelwein
went out in sympathy.
The strike of the boilermakers fol-
lowed refusal of the railroads to
accede to demand for IS cents AN
hour east of the Mississippi river and
VI IL cents west of the river. This
the railroads consider to be the
heaviest demand ever made by any
of their shop employees.
AS compromise, the railroads of
fered 4l 1-2 cents an hour east and
43 1-2 cents west of the Mississippi
river. with the nine-hour day for both.
This increase would be equal to l 1-2
cents differtial above the wages paid
machinists.

COAL FAMINE IN BUTTE.
Closing of Mines Will Not Relieve
the Situation, Which Is Serious.


Butte, Sept. 15.-The fuel situation
in Butte is not improving. Some of
the coal dealers say it is growing
worse and that there is no relief in
sight. 1t is a fact we'll known that
some of the dealers have for some
time refused to take new orders for
coal land they are several months
behind in filling others. Manager
Lane of the Western Fuel company
said that his company had received
no shipment of lump coal in 10 days,
and other managers report the same
experience.
Some of the biggest companies
have been out of coal for some time
Some of the coal mining companies
have drawn out of the Butte market
entirely. It is now Impossible to pur-
chase Rock Springs coal. The Union
Pacihc Coal company, owner of the
Rock Springs mines, has drawn out
of the market and closed its Butte
office. The Bridger Coal company
has practically drawn out of the
Butte market, only an occasional car
being received now. The Bridger
company, it is said, prefers to ship
its product to the state of Washing
ton, where 1t can get more for it
than it can in Montana.
Rocky Fork coal has ceased COM
ing to Butte, as that output is all
used by the Northern Pacific. No
Kemmerer commercial coal is coming
to this market One dealer said yes
terday that he had turned away no
less than 50 orders during the day.
The inability to get enough coal
from the mines is not entirely to
