CURE FOR BURNS.
French Surgeon Has Method Which
Acts Quickly and Leaves No Scare.


New York.-A prominent surgeon
of France. a man who has invented
an improved system of treatment for
burns. arrived on the liner New York.
He Is DR.. Berthe do Sanfort, who
comes here to demonstrate that by
subjecting a body that is badly burn
ed to intense heat under conditions
he has perfected he can cure the In
jury in one half to one quarter the
usual time. He claims that the
chances of saving life are greatly in
creased by use of his method.
The doctor applies an especially
prepared ointment made of wax and
agent / use to exclude moisture and
ture up to as high as 260 degrees
Fahrenheit and keeps 1t there for a
long period. He explains that 1t is
possible to keep up this high tenn
perature on the human body when the
heat is perfectly dry and the air ex-
cluded
one of the features of the cure is
that no dist CURING scars are left
when the wounds are healed. The
doctor claims that in the majority
of cases even when the patient has
been terribly injured by fire or acid,
flesh is restored practically to its
former texture.
The surgeon has a military bearing
and keen, thoughtful eyes. He was
modest in tell ng of his invention and
reluctant to say anything that might
be taken as praise of himself.
II have succeeded in subjecting the
human body to these very high tenn
peratureS by a method I am prepar-
ed to demonstrate here as I have in
Europe. 1t has been the result of
long, hard work on my part, but the
system has been adapted by the
French army and navy and many of
the hospitals of France.
The cure is called the hyderther-
mes treatment, and I have named the
agent I use to exclude moisture and
cover the heat hyderthermine. My
object in coming over here is to dem
onstate my cure to the American SCI
entific world. I shall appear before
medical bodies and at hospitals
The doctor had with him large
quantity of the hyderthermine that he
will use n his work. In the worm in
which II is preserved and carried IT
is hard mass that looks as If 1t were
an English plum pudding. 1t is COW
cred with parafinc and will keep for
an indefinite period. There is little
difficulty, 1t Is said, in It's manufac-

WOODS [Lt(T[D b1 -FOUR Volts
Elect Sheriff BY Very
Close Margin---No Change in
Other County Offices

With the completion of the oflic-
ial canvass by the board Of county
commissioners this week, it is de-
finitely announced that w. r.
Woods is elected sheriff of Fergus
county by four votes, Tullock
leading the race until almost the
very last. The most authentic re-
port before the official count gave
Tullock plurality Of one vote with
one precinct missing. This precinct
was Utica, which finally came in
with five votes for Woods, thus
giving him the Office by four votes.
It was reported here that Woods
election will be contested, but this
could not be verified, and it is hardly
likely that this will be done.
Aside from the changes in the
totals Of the votes cast for the var
ious candidates. there were no
changes in the result of the election
as stated in The Record last week.
Slayton snd Asbridge, for repre-
senatives, polling 1929, and 1,449
votes respectively.
Late returns in the state indicate
that the next legislature will be
Democratic by six votes ON joint
ballot. Brantley carried the state
for chief justice by plurality Of
over 5000 over Cheadle.

0LEO MAKES
ITS DEBUT
n. R. Mcdonald Secures License to
Sell Oleomarsarin in
Roundup.

Oieomargarin, a we'll know pro-
duct used extensively in lieu Of but
ter, will soon make its debut in
Roundup. N. 4. Mcdonald has
secured government license to sell
this product. it being required by
law that dealers be provided with
official documents allowing them
to sell it. The new pure food law
also provides that not more than
ten pounds can be disposed Of to
a customer at one time. Another
provision is that the dealer has to
stamp his name and place of busi-
ness on the package before being
turned over to the purchaser.
Oleo is now being manufactured
in such scientific manner that it
cannot be distinguished from butter
by taste, smell or color, and no
harmful ingredients are used in it's
make up. It contains 80 per cent
butter fat. The greatest point in
its favor, however, is its cheapness,
oleo selling for Is cents per pound
whereas butter commands a fancy
figure.

Bill Kelly Shot and Killed and Two
Others Wounded-The Murderer
Is Still At Large

One dead and two wounded is
the result Of shooting affray which
occurred at Farrell, small town
about mile above Klein on Half
Breed creek, last Sunday evening
about $50 o'clock. The dead man
is Bill Kelly, we'll driller, and the
wounded are Ted Kelly, brother
OF the dead man. and Joe Morato, a
brother of the man who it is alleged
did the shooting. The shooting was
the result Of a dispute which arose
in dance hall above the saloon at
Farrell where a dance was in pro-
gress. Arthur Morato, who did the
shooting, fled to the hills immedi-
ately after he realized what he had
done. and altho searching parties
have been trailing him, he has not
yet been captured. It is believed,
however, that he is being hid by
some of his foreign friends in the
vicinity Of Camp Two.
The quarrel which resulted so
disasterously was caused by Bill and
Ted Kelley attempting to pass the
door Of the dance hall without pay
ing. The Morato boys, who were
conducting the dance, would not al
low them to enter, and after a heat
ed discussion, Arthur Morato pulled
a .38 calibre six shooter and smoked
up the hall to the extent Of six
shots. Bill Kelley was shot in the
right side, the bullet piercing both
lungs. and he lived only a few
minutes. His brother was wound
ed on the top of the head, bullet
grazing the skull. and another bull
let found it's way into the right
shoulder of Joe Morato, evidently
by mistake. Mrs. Ariano, who was
standing close by dnring the excite
ment, received some powder burns
on the face. A coroner's inquest
was held over the dead body Mon
day, the jury returning a verdict OF
murder and fixing the blame on
Arthur Morato.
The body Of the dead man was
brought to Roundup and is now ~
ing in Marshall's undertaking par
lors awaiting the instruction Of
relatives. His father is expected
here tomorrow from Iowa to claim
the body. Both of the Morato boys
were employed at No. 2 at mine.
The Yellowstone county officials
are certain that Morato will be ap-
pretended within a few days, as
they are now working on some inn
portant clues which have been
furnished them in the last day or SO.

MRS. BACKSTEIN
GETS ONE DAY
Is Sentenced to Deer Lodge for "a
Hours and to Pay 5000 Fine.

Saturday Mrs. Lillian Baisch
Backstein, appeared before Judge
Cheadle and was sentenced to serve
day in the state prison and to pay
a fine Of 5000, she having pleaded
guilty to the charge Of bigamy.
The light sentence Of Judge
Cheadle meets with the approval Of
the general public, which sympa-
thizes with the unfortunate women
who made the fatal mistake Of not
getting a divorce from Backstein
before marrying again. Public
sympathy is largely with the women
because of the course pursued by
her former husband.
By the sentence imposed it is
thought that justice will be entirely
carried out, and that the woman
will have suffered enough. Since
her arrest she has undergone great
mental anguish and on the day of
her trial she made an unsuccessful
attempt at suicide by swallowing
corrosive sublimate. After Attorney
Huntoon completed the case of the
state the woman pleaded guilty,
throwing herself upon the mercy Of
the court.

PARK ADDITION
TO City Of Roundup Being Improved
Two Buildings Already
Going Up.

Park Addition, one Of the latest
evidences Of the continued growth
of the Miracle City, is already be-
ing improved to considerable
extent. The ground has been leveled,
provisions made for the extension
OF First avenue thru the addition,
and huge sign board erected on
tract alongside the road proclaiming
to the world the great advantages
OF having a home here.
AL. Shaw, who has the sale Of
lots in this addition, informs The
Record that large number have
been disposed of, and more being
sold every day. The excellent
location of the Park Addition makes
it an exceptionally attractive pro-
position for anyone desiring place
to build home at resonable
price, and it is no idle prediction
to say that all OF these lots will in
very short time have passed into
the hands of actual homebuilders.
Two homes are already going up,
one by Stanley Bonkoski and an
other by Mrs. Lydell, these being
only the forerunners of season of
active building operations next
|year.
