BLOODHOUNDS FIND TIRED
FISHERMEN

Joe Werner, the old bear hunter and
guide living at the head of the lake, tells
good story OH Judge Carr and Mr..
Freeman of the Doebler hardware store.
These two gentlemen were on fishing
trip last Saturday, and stayed over night
at Joe's cabin and early the next morn
ing started up Swift creek, with intentions
of landing d basketful of the speckled
beauties, and telling their host that tl.ey
would return before dark.
As darkness began to come on, and the
fishermen did not appear, the old hunter
began to worry, and started to shoot off
numerous firearms in the hopes of To-
eating the wanderers. knowing that
bear and other wild animals were num-
erous in the country where the fisher
men doubtless were, he started prepara-
tions for finding the lost men. Providing
himself with a rifle, lantern and some
food, he then set his pack of boodhounds
loose and was soon on the track of the
lost ones.
1t was but short time before the dogs
gave notice that they had run something
to earth, and as Old Joe came up to the
scene, expecting to find the half de-
voured bodies of the two fishermen, a
peculiar sight met his eyes.
Snugly settled between two branches
OF large tree, with his legs dangling
about 10 feet above terra firma, and
snoring loud enough to awake the woods,
was Judge Carr, while just above him
was Mr.. Freeman, wild-eyed and in a
condition bordering on nervous collapse.
In explanation of their non-appearance
at camp, they said that they had become
exhausted on their trip, and although
without either blankets or food, they
were compelled to lay up for the night.
After binding their rescuer to absolute
secrecy, they returned to camp, and pro-
ceeded to fill up the inner man with fish
that their host had prepared.

ENGINEERS
SURVEYING

The Great Northern has crew OF en-
glneers at work in the Rocky mountains,
along the main line, retracing the sur
vey which was made last summer for a
double track, and according to rumors
here the work of double.tracking over
the mountains is to be started in the
near future.
According to the surveys as heretofore
made, the double-t tracking will extend
from Summit to Java, 4 distance of four
teen miles, which is the worst part of
the climb over the mountains. The
'iouble-tracking of this distance would
greatly relieve traffic conditions, as the
road over the continental divide is prac-
tically the key to the limitations of traf-
tic for the whole Great Northern system.
Since the law limiting the time that
trainmen may work continuously to six
teen hours was passed in Montana, there
has been been considerable trouble on
the local division, especially when traffic
has been heavy, and tln trouble has been
mostly due to the grade over the noun
tains. With double track this difficult
ty would be mostly eliminated.
While it is not definitely known here
when the work of construction will start,
everything fayors the belief that it will
be soon, as conditions seem to demand
that the work be DONE The extra track
will be quite an expensive one to build,
as the country is rough, and there will
be numerous engineering difficulties to
overcome,

WHlTEFlSH, 5
STANLEY, 6.

Saturdays game between Stanley and
Whitetish was won by score of to 6.
The home team got one in the first, and
the visitors did the "a ne in the second,
then Stanley started punching her hits
and at the beginning of the last half OF
the ninth the score stood 2 to 6 in their
favor.
Two men were out and two on bases,
and the fans started to leave the grounds,
when Old Man Barbour, who had been
hitting like a crazy man all through the
game, stepped to the plate. Someone
in the crowd yelled at him to remember
Casey at the Bat," and Barb" seemed
to catch the inspiration, for Immediately
thereafter he lined one out for three bags,
scoring the two base runners.
VanSlyke was next up and singled
bringing in Barbour, ard then the tall,
slim young man in the box realized that
he was up against it, and gave way tc
another pitcher. Averill went in to bat
and the crowd was yelling like mad, fol

er, but there was nothing doing. A high
one to center field retired him, and the
game was over.
1t was one of the most exciting finishes
ever seen on the home grounds, and il
Whitetish could have had one-half the
luck that Stanley had she would have
won the game.
w. F. Tillotson started in to umpire,
but some of his decisions seemed wrong
to the players, and Manager Joe Hamill
finished the game to the entire satisfac-
ton of ALL

w. y. w. organizer, and was in the act
OF stepping from the boa. to the landing,
when in some manner she fell into tie

Mr.. Murphy, who is noted for his he
roic instincts, made rush to the rescue
OF the fair lady, and after few mo-
ments struggle succeeded in pulling the
unfortunate woman onto the dock. The
lady was very profuse in her thanks to
her rescuer, and Mr.. Murphy was feeling
very friendly toward the nice looking
young lady, when Mr.. Dixon, the lady 5
husband, appeared and took charge OF
his water soaked wife.
After receiving many compliments
from the bystanders for his heroic act,
Murphy passed some of his famous cards
among the crowd, and went his way.
