Rev. and Mrs. Cowan arrived in
Culbertson last Saturday evening,
from Boise, Idaho, where they had
been on a visit to relatives. They
were delayed on the trip 36 hours,
first by washoui and later by a
wreck.
The washout occurred between
Helena and Great Falls, where a
bridge was washed away. The
passengers were Sobliges to carry
their luggage across a temporary
bridge to train that backed in
from Great Falls.
After leaving the latter city they
soon encountered wreck at a
point between Great Falls and
Havre. The track was badly torn
up but no lives were lost. The
train backed up to Great Falls and
went round by way OF Shelby

Line At Once.

lhe Stockholders OF the Montan,
Star Tel. Co. met Tuesday morn
, ing at 10 o'clock in Stephens Hal
in pursuance of the SPECIAL cal
published in the Sesrchlight.
Over two-thirds Of the shock.
holders were represented, either in
person or by proxy. The meeting
was held for the special purpose oi
voting on the resolution to incre ase
the stock Of the Mont. Star rele-
phone Co. from sac, 900 to $50, 600
and npon being put to a vote was
carried unanimously.
The directors of the Company
held meeting in the afternoon
and decided to begin the construc-
ton Of the line from Culbertson to
Nashua as soon as the necessary
material can be secured.
The sale OF the extra shares OF
the stock will furnish ample capital
and it is expected that the poles
will be delivered and construction
CONNIE need within 80 days.
The line will extend from Gull
bertson west along the Great
Northern Railway right of way to
Nashua and will there connect
with the Moore Telephone Line
with headquarters IN Glasgow.
This will give Culbertson through
telephone service with all points
west.
The new line will be heavier and |
stronger than the Culbertson Red
stone line. Larger poles and bet
ter wire is to be used. The Cul-
oertson- Redstone line is known to
De one OF the best in the northwest,
so when the two lines are COM
pleted and connected the Redstone
Sulbertson. Nashua line will be the
equal of any system in the eastern
states.

'ould be pushed to completion by

were at the bottom of a 3000-foot

Like a pair of beetles running
round and round the rim of a sau-

the men coursed round and round.
But the more they sought, the
more they realized that their one
hope of escape was to throw them
selves into the maelstrom, taking
blind chances of being hurled
against rocks or being sucked I'M

At the entrance of the pitch
dark tunnel they sat gazing at the
vortex of funnel-shaped eddy of
the black, swirling water. Long,
in islence, the men gazed into each

demned men standing on the brink
of eternity, they clasped each
others hands in a vise-like grip.

HER BABY DEAD, LAURA

Three minutes later, Laura
Macdonald was free. Tears roll
ed unheeded down the cheeks of
two of the Jurors as they took the
hand of the woman who had been
on trial for her life.
MAY God bless you, 1f1y GIRL
said one of them simply.
THANK you, SIR" she answered
just as simply.
And so Laura Macdonald has
sadly, yet bravely and hopefully,
faced the world again.
That is why the story of Laura
Macdonald has been worth the
telling. For IL Is a true story
that tells that life, even for a
young girl may compass privation,
hardship, hunger, love, cruelty,

spair--and still live in courage

renee released his mattress and
followed. In a second both found
themselves lying almost dead on
the rocks that studded basin in
to which they had landed over a
falls house-high.
When they recovered they went
on until provisions gave out. The
next dy a solitary sheep was
found on a rock in the canyon.
They killed 1t and ate-then went
on.
According to survey, the men
knew they must now be within a
few miles of the foot of the Black
canyon. Between them and the
end, however. was such an ordeal
as comes into the lives of few who
live to tell a tale.
Narrowing Adventure.
Everybody's Magazine tells the
story as follows:
Centuries, perhaps ages ago, the
river had gnawed, undermining
banks until. with a rumble like an
earthquake, landslide of thou
sands of tons of rock had crashed
into the stream, making a mass
hundreds of feet in height. For
centuries, the torrents had bonn
barded against the base of this
heap, wearing a tortuous channel
and disappearing a short distance
on into a grim tunnel. 1t was this
obstacle by which the men were
now confronted.

lures that they had encountered

and the river.

toIial aspirant in Seattle, who
has large interests on Grays Har-
Dor and, very properly a support
er of Mr.. Finch, is also charged
with holding jefferson against us
as through similar interests in
Jefferson.
BE this as it may. Jefferson
simply cast ruthlessly aside 20
years of absolute devotion and
fidelity from Pierce.

delegation became so Disguised he

Sims continued to cast Bishops

convention in Pacific county
would have been seated instead
of the Finch delegates appointed
by Mr.. Little at Raymond. This
would have added 13 more votes
to Pierce county's strength, of
which Kleeb, Mcdonald, Seaburg
and Cressy were always with us,
being on both delegations, but the
votes of these gentlemen could
only raise our strength to 1O3
votes, it requiring 107 to control.
Jefferson county, with her Mr..
Sims, must explain. I will have
nothing more to say about such
disgraceful conduct on the part
of that county.

Irregularities, such as not signing

horrifying leap, yet remembering
his promise to follow within 10
minutes of his partner.
Finally he took long, deep
breath and dived head first into
the funnel. For an instant he felt
himself spinning round and round.
A tearing, wrenching sensation
as IL he were being torn apart in
a thousand directions, a pressure
as il a mountain were closing in
upon him. then a shooting forward
like the speed of an arrow; and
just as his senses were leaving
him he was spat out of the water
into clear air, and Fellows clutch
ed his collar as he was whirling
past rock. Like frightened chill
dren snatched out of jaws of
death, these two men of iron lock-
ed arms about each other and
laughed and wept-laughed and
wept Historically like women.
Who says the Black canyon is
impassable?" cried Fellows, and
over and over they repeated the
grim joke until they collapsed in
to the nervous sleep of exhaustion.
Two days later, they climbed
1000 feet up the DEVILS Slide at
the lower end of the canyon. hav-
