NEAT SUM FOR
WIDOW AND ORPHANS

The baseball game played last
Friday night for the benefit of Mrs.
Qualey and her children, between
the Whitefsh team and the Lindhes,
netted $72.75 for the widow and
orphans. Mr.. Qualey was drowned
in the lake on the third of July and
left his family in very destitute
circumstances. A popular sub
scription is being taken up among
the citizens OF the town which
will mount quite bit. 1t is hoped
that this sum will keep the wolf
from the door for a time till she is
able to recover some life insur-
ance. 1t is understood that Mr..
Qualey carried a policy in one of
the substantial companies.

Police Glea!rings

VIM. Scott paid IS fine in
Judge Garr's court last Saturday
for disturbing the peace.
Matte Covington, soiled dove
in the restricted district, made the
night hideous with profane Ian
.ss..SSe (which reaca.sl O&cer rytt-
calf's ears, and resulted in her be-
ing brought before Judge Carr the
next day to whom she coughed up
five plunks and costs.
Ed Anderson dropped into town
and proceeded to have hot time
which landed him in the city bas-
tile Monday, and was given an op-
portunity to contribute $40 towards
the good OF the town. He didn't
have the necessary wherewith at
the time, SO left a Smith & Wesson
revolver with the Judge as security
to be redeemed in 80 days.
w. NJ. Jones, another offender
was arrested Monday for getting
too hilarious. Not wishing to go
to Jail he made deposit of SIS for
his appearance the next morning,
but he did not show up and the
money was forfeited.
Joseph Merebi, an Italian section
hand at Nyack was taken into GUS
tody by Game Warden s. F. Raj
ston for killing deer during the
closed season and was given a hear
ing before Judge Carr. Miss Erd-
man, who was operator at Nyack
and saw him with the deer, was
called as witness, but the evidence
was not strong enough to secure
conviction.
Frank w. Leveque was arrested
last week for petit larceny and de-
posted $25 bail for his appearance
in court Saturday. Saturday came,
but evidently he did not want to
take any chances on the leniency
of the Judge, so he never showed
up and the bail was forfeited to
the city.

THREE MONTHS FOR
STEALING A GUN

Saturday morning man giving
his name as Archel Croy, who
claims that he is half English and
half French, was brought before
Judge Carr charged with stealing a
shotgun from the baggage room at
the depot. The gun was the prop
erty Of F. l.. Drake, who had just
arrived here, and left it with the
baggage man to keep for him a
short time while he was looking
about the town. Crov claims that
he had been expecting his gun,
which he says has similar case,
from a. friend in Duluth, and when
he saw this one in the baggage
room he thought it was his and
took it along. This story sounded
too fishy for the jnige to take any
stock in it, and it was proved by
witnesses that he had been trying
to dispose of the gun which is val
ued at $25 to parties around at the
various saloons for $5. Without
any clemency whatever the Judge
sentenced him to three months in
the county Jail to think the matter
over. and $25 fine to hoot, but
he has no funds, so he will proba-
bly, have to. make it up in jail
sentence.

Found an Old Relic.

While one of the laborers who is
working in the cement gang put
ting in the new sidewalks was tear
ing up the old board walks he
found quite a number of small
coin that had dropped thru the
cracks at various times and among
them was an old English coin in a
very good state of preservation,
dated 1887, with the head of King
George the third. Roy Babcock
purchased it from him for seventy
five cents, and intends to keep it
as curio. 1t is really very re-
markable coin and one would prob
ably have to look a long ways to
find a mate to it.

LOOKING OVER
EXPERIMENElFARMS

Prof. Thos. Shaw, the G.. n. ag-
ricultural expert, and his assistant,
Mr.. Wilson, is in the valley exam
ing the experiment farms which
were established last spring.
He makes the statement that he
is thoroughly convinced that prac-
tically all the bench lands covering
approximately 25,OO0,OO0 acres in
Montana, that cannot be irrigated,
can be made to grow successful
crops three years out of four, if the
right methods are followed, despite
excessive drouths.

The Baseball Line-Up.

Next Sunday Libby and White
fish will cross bats on the local dia-
mond. Libby has strengthened up
considerably since they were here
this spring, and they promise to
give our boys run for the big end
of the money.
On the 23rd and Oath Kalispell
and Whitefsh will go at it again,
and we hope the two teams will
smoke the pipe of peace and forget
all about the hard feelings of the
past.
The Kalispell manager has pre-
sented to Manager Coins in writing
the agreement under which he will
play the game, so there will be
none OF those unpleasant scenes
which took place in Kalispell the
last time they played. Mr.. Coins
has signed the agreement, and il
will be lived up to t the letter by
the Whitefish team. and we can all
look forward to clean game of ball
on those dates.
The return game will be played
the following week on the Kali
ispell grounds.

CITIZENS CALLED
TO FIGHT FIRE

Sunday forenoon the citizens of
Whitefish were called out again to
fight forest fire that was burning
on the east shore Of the lake about
two blocks below Lakeside Hill.
The fire was apparently started
by tramps, and the fact that the
wind was blowing toward the lake
and with the assistance fire depart
ment and volunteer aid, its spread
was prevented.
The fire department was called
out again yesterday to sub,lue Il fresh
outbreak at the same place.

Soon Huckleberry Time.

Huckleberry time will soon be
here. They are just heginning to
ripen in the foot hills and in q
week or ten days moro those on the
mountain sides will be ready to
pick. The mountains north of
town has been the most popular
place to gather them for the past
two years, and the indications are
that there will he plenty of them
there this season also. Many
Whitcfish people look forward to
the bcrrying season for their sum-
mer outing. As soon as the ber-
ries are ripe, camping parties can
be. seen vending their way up the
narrow trails on the mountain sides
to where the berries are the thick
est. There are many empty claim
shanties in the forest where shelter
can be found for those who do not
lcare to bunk out under the starry
skses, with plenty of berries near at
hand, and sparkling streams close
by where there is excellent trout
fishing. Here most enjoyable
vacation can be spent that far sur
passes anything that can be found
at any of the famous and fashion
able watering resorts in the east,
where one has to swelter in the
heat with the thermometer way uI
i'm the nineties. Those who are in.
dustrious are we'll rewarded fol
their work. Last summer severa
parties brought down as much a.
ten gallons of those luscious buckle
berries as the result of only a few
days picking.

LOGGING BY
GRAVITY ROAD

A representative OF the Pilot
made visit to the scene of the
logging operations Of the. Hutchin-
son Lumber company the fore part
of the week, and found there some
thing very novel in the way Of
railroading.
Railroad men boast about the
excitement of mountain railroading
on the G. NJ, but they should have
a job Of braking on this logging
road of Hutchinson's to appreciate
what real live railroading is.
The road is a narrow guage two
miles long and rans from the mill
out into the timber on the SHE of
the mountain. 1t is croOkedcr
than the crookedest crook, and full
| of hog backs. It reminds one ot
a roller coaster or bump the bumps.
There are all kinds of grades,
from nothing up to about Is pei
cent, which of course furnishes tlae
motive power to carry the loaded
cars to the mill.
The cars built for the purpose
arc equipped with the most power
full and specially designed hand
brakes. Thev are headed ut the
skidway with an enormous load
The brakeman takes his seat at the
brake lever and the Journey com.
mences. 1t starts off slowly al
first but is soon flying at breaknecl
speed down the steep 6nclines, anc
around the curves that to even {
hardened railroad man would seen
like taking his life i'm his hands
but Pete La Claire, who is every
thing from general superintendent
down to section hand, and his abl
assistant, Nick Komatich, guild
these cars on this seemingly deatl
defying trip with. calmness ant
precision that is rennarkable.
The road has BEER In operation
good many months and they hav
only had ONE accident. That wa
caused by Il brake rod breaking
but NO damage WAS done except t.
the car which jumped the rails an,
scattered the logs all over th
country.

Back From Fight.

Engineer F. H. Babcock, who
attended the prize fight at Reno, re-
turned Saturday evening. He says
the trip was exceedingly inter-
esting, but that the fight was a
disappointment, as it was clear to
be seen in the first round that JEFF
fries was no match for the black
man and he doubted i" Jeff" had
ever trained at all for the fight.
