''BI|lings Basketball Bunch" Are
Coming East from Montana for
Series of Games.
JOE MARKHAM IS CAPTAIN, AND
IS PLAYING WHIRLWIND GAME
The Billings Team Is Recognized as
the Champion Five of
the West.

The Big Bemidg" basketball team
IS arranging to play two games
against the fast Billings (Montana)
basketball team, the champion basket
ball team of the west, and the follow
ing taken from the Billings Gazette,
will be read with interest by the
friends of Joe Markham and William
Collins, we'll known ex-Bemidjians
who are members of the Billings
Basketball Bunch:
The eastern tour of Billings
crack basket ball team is rapidly as
Stunning shape and now practically
assured; it would seem that all the
centers of the net game enthusiasm
along their proposed route are aim
ing to. take shot at the machine
which Coach Neill is developing.
The touring team will be known as
the Billings Basketball Bunch or
the Triple. b.
Yesterday two letters brought in
offers for three games, which, added
to those already received, place the
schedule much nearer completion.
1t is the teams desire to have the
jumps as evenly divided as possible,
SO that, IN case of unfavorable
weather, no engagements of the
schedule will be lost. Favorable
responses from all points indicate
this can be done.
New uniforms have been decided
upon for the trip and the Billings
bunch will be the nattiests quint at
the game this season, say those con-
cerned. Bright green tights will
clothe the players from head to foot
when they appear on the field, with
doublets of maroon and white play
ing shoes to set them off. The
sigma to be worn on the breasts
will be Triple B. embroidered in
gold letters.
while enroute in civilian attire,
the travelling organization will wear
golf caps, similar to those used by
the Polytecs, bearing the letters,
B. B. B. in gold, to designate their
membership wherever they go.
Sunday the members of the team
had their pictures taken for use on
their stationary and advertising cards
which will be used during the trip.
Those who will comprise the
organization are E. P. Neill, mana
ger and coach; Joe Markham, captain
and forward; Willard Salisbury and
J. D. Bishop, forwards; John Todd,
center; Charles Dudley, Carl Wick
strom and Will Collins.
The latter is at Livingston, con-
nected with the railroad company,
but expects to be transferred to
Billings soon. Formerly he played
with the teams of Great Falls and
Bemldji, Minnesota.

Cut Glass.

Barker is handling the very best
cut glass that can be bought. There
are bowls, vases, naples, sugars and
creamers, cologne bottles, salts and
peppers in bewildering profusion.
These cut glass specialties make
solid and substantial Christmas gifts
that are very acceptable.
There are Pickard's sugars and
creamers, plates, vases, salts and
peppers-the very acme of hand
painted china-not handkerchief
but hand-painted.
Smokers Articles.
Barker handles splendid assort-
ment of Meerschum and Briar
pipes at price to suit every purse.
You can certainly be satisfied.
In addition to the articles above
enumerated, Mr.. Barker is this
year displaying a line of holiday
novelties which are unique and rare.
What will I buy for Xmas?" can
be easily and satisfactorily answered
by visit to the metropolitan estab-
l1Shment of F.. A. Barker.

turtles ago, the ruins of which are
still standing in an excellent state
of preservation, proved them good
builders.
The fact that these temples were
built from this metal and it is still
in the best of condition speaks for
itself. Here is what is said of the
Benedict Mfg. Co., who makes this
brass as speciality:
They are metal workers and the
fact that their business has grown to
its present proportions proves them
good workers, also.
Their latest line is Karnak Brass
founded on the principles of utility
and art, of which you will find illus
