BLACK STILL AT LARGE
Koontz's Assailant Makes Clean Get
away--Koontz in In
proving.

No trace has yet been found of
James Black, who on April goth, shot
and wounded VIM. Koontz in saloon
at this place, although his descrip-
tion has been telegraphed to all
neighboring towns, and the surround

believed that Black was in Forsyth

his movements could not be followed
up.

attempt to remove the bullet was
made. The bullet is lodged in the
right shoulder back of the shoulder

it definitely. All danger of blood

ANOTHER BOOST
Milwaukee Road Publishes Book

and Opportunities"

The Milwaukee road is certainl,
''going some" in the advertising line
and the Musselshell Valley is receiv
ing some benefit from what the com
many is doing. The latest advertising
is neat and artistic booklet or
Montana, It's Resources and Oppor.
tunities." The booklet is net read,
for general distribution, but when it
gets into the hands Of eastern people
1t will be an eye-opener.
On the outside cover is the famous
ad. of the Milwaukee, the western
plainsman plowing up the gold dol
lars in the valley of the Musselshell.
The picture is well colored, and very
artistic. The names of HarlowtOn,
Lavina, Musselshel and Roundup
stand out prominently, thus giving
the towns along the line good boost
even If the reader should not read the
contents.
The booklet gives an accurate de-
scription of the state. touching on its
climate, soil, rainfall, crops and their
yield, markets and industries. There
is noLhing exaggerated, everything
contained in the book is the truth,
and actual statistics are given to
prove statements that would other
wise appear exaggerated. In the mat
ter of yield for instance there is
nothing claimed that is not matter
Of common knowledge of every per-
son in this section who knows any
thing about the yield of grain, it
states that the average yield of wheat
is 30 bushels to the acre, and gives
cuts of fields that actually produce
that much.
The Musselshell Valley comes in
for it's share of advertising. There
are four cuts of rural scenes taken
from the Musselshel valley. There
is one taken on the ranch of Lewis
Penwell, another from the ranch of
Catlin Bros. near Dorsey, and one IN
the vicinity of Harlowton. Each of
the pictures are clear and distinct
and are the best proof of the state
ments made relative to the produc-
tivity Of the soil in this valley.

Blethen and L. Swanson, the latter
making an address that had enough
genuine patriotism and enthusiasm
for Fourth of July speech. The
idea of spending money in other
towns when the majority of the peo-
pie here seem willing to pay for a
home celeb. alton, did not strike home
with any degree of enthusiasm.
There were several other matters
OF Importance that were freely dis
cussed, among them was the matter
OF setting apart day for cleaning up
the town. The association passed a
motion to the effect that the secre-
tary be empowered to draft memoir
ial to the town council representing
the sentiment Of the association, that
a day be set apart to clean up the
town, and that it be suggested that
on that day all business houses close
and make it as much of holiday as
possible.
1t was also decided to send a dele
gate from this vicinity who should be
a practical farmer, to act as men,
ber of the board of control of the Dry
Farming Congress to be held in Bill
lings. This action was taken after
had been received
from the Billings secretary request
ing that Harlowton be represented
on the board.

Cowpuncher Gets Curious.

Miles City Journal: A cowpuncher
who came in to the stockmeetlng got
lnquisitive concerning gasoline en-
glne which was running in front of
Claud Coles plumbing establishment,
and as result has broken foot, He
was dead used to bucking bronchos,
and all other kinds of wild and "onery"
livestock, but the engine was mat
ter of curiosity to him. He started
in by touching the fly wheel, monkey
ing with the governor, and other
parts, when he was warned by Mr..
Cole to let it alone. He came back
offering to bet V that he could ride
the thing and to show he was a sport
started to mount. The bed plate
seemed to him to correspond with
stirrup, SO he accordingly placed his
foot thereon. The piston rod came
down with its usual regularity, and
it does not require fertile imagina-
tion TO picture the result 1t is said
that his courage was screwed up 10
the point where he believed he could
easily have ridden the fly wheel of
80 horsepower, compound, triple ex-
pansion engine, running at 1000 revo-
lutions per minute, by the quantity
of liquid joy producer which he had
taken Oh since hitting the metropolis.
He will not be on the roundup this

SHOT In THE LEG
Leo Simonton, Twelve.Year.Old Brother
Of Mrs. Rossman, Shot in Thigh.
Taken to LeWistoWn.

Yesterday shortly after l o'clock
Leo Simonton, who is staying with
Mrs Rossman on the ranch near
Cruise, was accinenely shot by the
discharge of 3S caliber revolver.
Mrs. Rossman and Leo were sitting
on the porch, Mrs. Rossman had the
revolver upon her lap, when it was
suddenly discharged In some unac-
countable way, the bullet entering
Leo's leg in the heavy part of the
thigh. DR.. Campbell was summoned
but was unabe'to locate the bullet.
Leo will be taken to Lewistown this
afternoon where an X-ray will be used
to locate the bullet. DR.. Campbell is
of the opinion that it may have en-
tered the bone.
Leo showed strong nerve when the
doctor was probing for the missile, and
hardly WINGED. He requested that
nothing be said about the matter to
his mother who is now living in Min
neapolis, and when it was thot best
that he be taken home, he pleaded
not to be taken to his mother.
Mrs. RoSSman was also placed in
trying circumstance. She was alone
at the time of the accident, and is
still compelled to use crutches on ac-
count of her lameness. But she car
red the wounded boy bodily to the
track about three quarters of mile,
and tramp coming down the rail-
road carried him the rest of the way
to Cruise, a distance of about mile.
Mrs. Rossman cama in this morning
on the train with the boy and will
accompany him to Lewistown.
