CLEAR CREEK
Clear Creek, Mont, June 3oth, OF

Clear Creek, Mont, June 30th, o.
Last Tuesday, the people Of this
community were greatly shocked at |
learning Of The death by drowning, of /
little Freddie Ross, youngest child Of
MI. and Mrs Alex J. Ross. Three of
the little fellows were playing in the
waters of Wynn Greek, which emp
ties into Clear creek at the Ross res
idence, and the youngest one, not be-
ing able to Withstand the force of the |
current, was carried down and under,
and the mother being appraised of the
fact by one Of theothers rushed fran
t'cally down and seeing one of his
arms sticking out of the waters,
sprang into the surging torrent up to |
her waist, caught the child up in her
arms and held him until her husband
nearing her cries ran down and hep
| ed her out with him. in an unccn-
sclous condition. Every effort pos
s1ble was Immediately made to re-
suscitate him but all to no avail. It
was very evident that before the
mother could reach the scene, dea h
had claimed him as it's own. The
child was buried next day in the
presence of quite large concourse
Of people from UP tand down the
creek and also from the Lloyd neigh
borhood, who sowed their sympa-
thy with the parents In their sud-
den bereavement. Although no min
listers was present, there was read
chapter from the bible, a hymn
sung and remarks made appropriate
to the occasion; all taking part in the
proceedings with deep interest The
burial took place at the ranch, with
Albert and Willie Johnson Oscar
Hauskins and William FELTON, acting
as pail bearers. It has been many
years, if ever, since SO sad an event
has taken place in our community.
While we have for some time been
preparing foc a Fourth Of July cele-
bration here in the Basin yet to many
of us the pleasure of such an occasion
will oe impaired by the gloom which
still finds a place in our hearts.

1t Is Believed Upton VIII Challenge
for the Cup.

New York. Sept. 2.-The mystery at
tending the movements of Sir Thomas
Upton and party on board the steam
yacht Erin, says dispatch from Dub
lin, is a topic of discussion among
yachtsmen here. The Erin remained
at Kingstown from Sunday last till
Thursday. when at midnight she
steamed northward. supposedly for
Dublin. She has not arrived at Dublin
and the belief now is that she has sail
ed for New York.
1t is the intention of Sir Thomas to
challenge at the eleventh hour for the
American cup. His yachting friends
have been irving to dissuade him from
doing this. but he has undoubtedly
faith that he will succeed this time, and
is making an expensive and determined
effort

compelled to hire a rig every time they
made the trip. Early in the summer
they tried to persuade their friend to
go in with them thus lesSening the ex-
pense of the rig. They even promised
to find him a girl with whom to spend
the evening. The young man, however,
declined their invitation as he had an
other plan In mind which he considered
would afford him much more fun and no
expense. A week ago Sunday the boys
started out on their usual trip while
their comrade and friend remained be-
hind. In high glee their friend saw
them leave, for on this night he planned
to have his fun. He would act the role
of lone highwayman and hold up the
boys on their homeward trip. The place
selected for the dark deed. was on the
road bordered by the big naples AS
the highwayman knew his friends were
in the habit of staying until IL o'clock
or Whereabouts he knew he would not
have to be at his post until after that
hour. After a pleasant evening spent
with North Topeka friends he repaired
to the place and took his station in the
shadow of one of the trees and COM
menced his vigil. Slowly the minutes
passed. One by one the lights in the
distant houses disappeared. Now and
then a team would pass, sometimes
bringing stragglers to town and some
times taking country people back to
their homes. Each time the boy would
draw back in the shadow of his friend
ly tree. The long lonely minutes drag
RoQ ana until dIIeE the WdICLCA
sat waiting for his victims but the boys
did not come. Finally overcome by
WEAKNESS the highwayman fell asleep.
How long he slept he could not tell
but suddenly he was awakened by the
sound of voices. Hastily pulling down
his hat over his face and grasping his
weapon he jumped into the middle of
the road just as the unsuSpecting boys
drove up to him. He seized the horses
bride and in a fierce tone demanded
of the occupants of the buggy ITO
throw up their hands and make no noise
about it." The frightened boys did as
he commanded He next ordered them
to drive down to the light; which they
did, the highwayman keeping vigilant
guard over them. When they had en-
erged from the shadow of the trees the
bold bad boy revealed himself to his
friends and then took French leave.
The boys thought the story too good to
keep, even if it was on themselves and
so next day they told 1T around. one
of the boys said, why I was so scared
when he spoke to us that my hair just
stood up straight and so did Sid's."

Nealect Of the Teeth

There is nothing for which one pays
so dearly as for the neglect of his
teeth. Where the teeth are filed in
nroper time, before the decay has pro-
crossed far. the work requires but lit
tie time, the expense is small and the
pain is but slight. But if the tooth has
been neglected until the pulp is ex-
posed or has died and started an abb
scess or until the tooth has broken
down beyond repair. it requires consfd-
cradle time to treat and fill the tooth,
or to build it up and crown it. or to
extract and replace it with a bridge
consequently the expense is much
greater And all of the pain which
the aching or abscessed tooth caused
before the dentist is visited might he
avoided if the work were done at the
proper time. Do not neglect vo1Ir
teeth but have them attended to be-
fore they cause you any trouble
