GREAT DAYFOR THE Miners
North MOCCaSn Union No. III Provides SDIeDdid
Entertainment for Hundreds Of Visitors
to the Big Gold Camp.

Kendall, June Saturday, June
13, proved an ideal day for the cele-
bration of Miners Union day which
is au annual event in Kendall. All
roads led to Kendall on that day
and one scarcely realized that but
three or four days prior to the 18th
the highways had been almost i'm
passable. On the evening of the 18th
people began to arrive, and vehicles
of all kinds, from the zone boss shay
to the automobile and a goodly num-
Der on saddle horses, were to be seen
hurrying Kendallwards.
Visitors came in large numbers
from points twenty-five and thirty
miles distant; Gilt Edge, Maiden and
Lewistown were we'll represented and
man yranchers from the Fort Ma
ginnis district were also present. The
hotels and rooming houses were
crowded and accommodation for the
visitors proved entirely inadequate.
Perhaps never in the history of the
famous gold camp has any celebra-
tion-and there have been many Of
them-passed off SO smoothly and
pleasantly and been so thoroughly
enjoyed by all present. All events
were pulled off without hitch and
with little if any of the jangling and
wrangling usually incident to such a
day. The little Misunderstanding
which had arisen between the band
and the Union committee was
pleasantly settled, to the great salts
faction of every one in Kendall, and
the band certainly did itself proud
for it was never in better trim nor
heard to better advantage than on
Union day.
Promptly at o:30 a. m. Lem Hubble,
the president Of the North Moccasin
union, No. Ill, bearing the national
fag( and the K. P. bank started the
parade, at the Union hall, and follow
ed by the members of the union, and
also of the l. w. w. in Kendall,
marched to the strains of martial
music the length of Mckinley avenue,
and back again, to the opera house,
where a large crowd listened to the
address of the day by Hon. E. K.
Cheadle, who was introduced by the
union president, Lem Hubble Judge

the vital questions of the day, tina,

BELMONT Is DEAD.

New York, June 10.-Oliver H. P,
Belmont, aged so years, died at his
home in Hampstead, L. l., today,
after a ten days illness with appen-
dicits. His death had been anticipat-
ed for days, but in the end it came
so unexpectedly that, with the
exception of Mrs. Belmont, none
of the members of the family had
time to reach the sick room after the
hurried summons was sent to them
Ever since the conditions of Mr.
Belmont become critical, more than a
week ago, Mrs. Belmont's children
William K. Vanderbilt, jr., and
Harold Vanderbilt and Mrs. William
K. Vanderbilt, jr., have been almost
constantly within call of the sick
room. Worn out by the long vigil
they retired early this morning when
there appeared to be no appreciable
change in the sick mans condition
and were sleeping soundly when the
summons came. Mr.. Belmont had
passed a bad night but toward morn
ing appeared to be resting easily
when soon after half past six he wa.
seized with terrible pains. DR.. Lane
hart hurriedly called Mrs. Belmont
and she had just time to reach the
room before her husbands death.

SAFFRON Fielding
CAUSE OF DEFEAT
ELK BALL PLAYERS PUT UP
VERY PUNK EXHIBITION
OF NATIONAL GAME.

The Elks base ball team of this city
got deserved drubbing from the
lively bunch Of ball tossers who SO
worthily represent the growing burg
of Moore. About two hundred and
fifty Lewistown people went out on
a special train to see the antlered
herd massacred. An immense crowd
witnessed the contest and had it not
been for the miserable fielding of the
Lewistown boys, the game would
have been pippin.
But it's no use. The fellows were
simply all due for one united, con.
certed effort to everlastingly smash
all records for errors. They piled
up fifteen and almost every one of
them figured in the scoring. There
was choice assortment Of them.
Puny flies were muffed, measley little
grounders were permitted to roll
gently and unhindered through futile
fingers and between widespread feet.
High throws, low throws, wide
throws-in fact every sort Of throw
but the right sort was exhibited.
One thing which gave to the
fasco the spirit of good fellowship,
was the fact that no one individual
player had monopoly on the errors.
The boys simply fell all over each
other in their endeavors to grab an
error. Oh, Mamie, but it was fierce.
But we would not dwell too long
upon these narrowing features. There
were a few bright spots. For in
stance, the way that those fielding
dubs hit that ball. Had they helded
just one-half as we'll as they batted
there would have been a different
oh such different, tale to tell of the
game. Miller, in particular, starred
with the stick. Two ripping Triples
and a single in four times at bat con-
stituted his reception to Mr.. McElroy,
the great mystiher. Other members
of the team also got next to the de-
livery of the gentleman with the sun
kissed locks for some nice bingles,
twelve being the total number OF
safeties raped out by the Elks::
On the other side, you will have to
give it to Moore for some mighty
clever fielding and base running
They captured everything in sight
and although they did not hit Garlic
ton especially hard, by courtesy oi
numerous errors, they frequently got
on bases and thanks to the same
cause in another form, usually got
around to the home plate.
The boys from the bench certainly
have a mighty fast aggregation. II
is one which will require the best that
| Lewistown can get together to defeat
More, they are all clever, gentlemanly
fellows who play the game purely fol-
the sport there is in it and in a
sportsmanlike manner.
