ESCAPE WAS
MIRACULOUS
MAN AND CHILD BOTH FALL
FIFTY FEET INTO DRY WELL
AND ARE RESCUED uNHuRT
NEAR NEW SALEM SATURDAY.

Saturday morning Mrs. Richard
Kunkle and her little 6-year-old daugh-
ter, residing on farm six miles south
of New Salem. started out from the
house to drive the COWS to the pas
ture. The little one wandered away
from her mother and stumbled into
an old, unused and dried up Well,
falling to the bottom, some SO feet
Mr.. Kunkle was quickly called, and
with the help of neighbors was low
cred into the well with rope. en-
about half way down the rope became
loosened from under the mans arms,
and he was also precipitated to the
bottom. Father and child were both
finally rescued w the neighbors, and
when they reached the surface We're
found to be absolutely unhurt, except
for few bruises.
Their escape from serious injury or
perhaps death is considered miracu-
lous.

CO. A DRILLED
With new RIFLES
ABOUT TEN OF THE MILITIA
boys WENT OUT TO RIFLE
RANGE SUNDAY AFTERNOON
AND MADE GOOD scoREs-NEW
ARMY RIFLES USED.

About ten members of Company A
went out to the rifle range back OF
the capitol building Sunday after
noon and practiced shooting at the
500-yard range with their new army
rifles. The boys say the new guns
give excellent satisfaction and some
good scores we're made. The shoot
was a sort of a preparatory to next
Sunday, when Lieut.. Mccormick will
take ten or fifteen men over to Man
dan. to shoot against Company F.
The highest scores made at the
local range Sunday were: Private
Carefel, 46 out of a possible so; Sec
ond Lieut. Hines, "a out of so; First
Lieut.. Mccormick, 40 out Of so, and
Private Boheneck, 40 out of so.
The new guns were issued to the
members of the company Monday
evening. They will go into camp this
year with a membership of about IS
men.

FINEST SHOW YET
THE BILL THIS WEEK AT THE
GEM is A MOST CLEVER ONE.
THE RANTS MAKE GOOD WITH
LARGE AUDIENCES.

The bill this week at the Gem is
par excellence. The theater has in
augurated bill which introduces a
couple of vaudeville acts between the
moving pictures and illustrated
songs They have this week the
Rants, man and wife. Mr.. Rant, as a
slack wire performer, stands pre-emi-
nent in his class, doing some stunts
with apparent ease and grace which
are really exceedingly difficult. Inc
other vaudeville act is the Hebrew di-
alect comedian, George Bartlett. Bart.
lett is quite diminutive, and his make
up is inimitable. The performers
were greeted with two capacity hous-
es Sunday evening, and they were Ger
tainly worth of the applause which
their acting and sayings provoked.

VERY GOOD BALL
GAME ON SUNDAY
DUNNRAvENS AND HIGH SCHOOL
TEAMS PLAY SEVEN INNINGS
WHICH RESULTS IN VICTORY
FOR FORMER BY ITO 4.

Last Sunday afternoon a crowd of
perhops 200 men and women witness
ed first rate game of baseball be-
tween the Dunnraven and the local
high school teams. While no very
brilliant or sensational plays were
made, it was a clean game through
out, and at the fms hthe score stood
Z to in favor of the Dunnravens.
The high school boys made an ex-
cellent showing, but were outclassed
by the experience of the older play
'ers, the steadiness of Woods and Pos
ely, the Dunnraven pitchers, and the
heavier hitting of the older men. Err
rors were rather frequent on both
sides and at times proved costly. The
Dunnraven pitchers had eight strike
outs credited to them, while Sweet
of the high school had one land
Brown, who relieved him in the third
inning, six. McLane of the high
school plays a good game at second
while Sweet fillde the shortstop posi-
ton very well.
For the Dunnravens Woods hitting
was possibly the feature, he having
two singles and double to his credit
In the sixth inning Edwards sent a
liner out to the fence in left field
which was good for three bases,
though a great many of the spectators
thought the fair ball was a foul, Sc
close did it come to the chalk line.
Sweet gave out five passes to first
on his delivery, while Brown showed
up with two to his credit. Posely
passed three men.
The SCORE nv innings.

WIT FORM STATE ASSOCIATION
.sSs Or TlTLE-MEN.
LETTER IS RECEIVED
Local Abstracter Receives Letter Stat
in1 That an Organization Ii the
State u Probable and Will 20
Pushed Along.

A letter has been received by J.. D
Bryan, a local abstracter in regard to
the formation Of q state association
Of title,men. II Is expected that about
20 O 80 title-men from all parts Of
the state viii convene here in the
next few weeks, with . view Of or
ganizing into state association.
II Is said that all the abstracters Of
Montana, or 9 great number Of them.
have been strongly In favor Of form.
Ing 81 association, and in the letter
received by Mr.. Bryan, A. T. Hastings
the president Of the American associa'
ton with headquarters In Spokane
says that he believes an association
can be organized within the state and
that It will be possible to get the
men together in Billings in the next
few weeks.
There are % states represented in
the American association, and Mon
tana will be the tw~enty-third one to
Join. Mt. Hastings from the Spokane
office says in part:
I'VE had twenty-five states repre-.
sented In the American association
this year and / am sure that Montana
only needs a little start to make 1t
one OF the strongest association states
Of the union. Judging from your let
ter 70 Mr.. Skinner you would not be
adverse in assisting in forming this
organization, therefore / viii ask II
you will kindly ascertain from your
several abstract companies and your
chamber Of commerce or commercial
club Il they will assist in receiving
the different abstracters who may
come, what daoe would be the most
convenient and the furnishing Of q
place of meeting. This has been the
custom in all preliminary organiza-
lions, and If you. on: looking into the
matter, think 1t advisable, we will cor.
respond further along these lines.
81 will be glad to hear from you
along these lines and am frank to
say that I favor Billings at the pres
emit time for a meeting place, as /
I'm OF the opinion that the greater
number Of live a%bstracters reside In
Eastern Montana"
