Montana's Most Serious Fire.

Helena, Mont, Aug. 23.-Montana is
facing the most serious forest fire
situation in its history, and the out
look is anything but encouraging. a
heavy pail of smoke has hung over the
city and falling ashes carried by a
stiff breeze makes most outdoor activ-
ity disagreeable. With the exception
of the immediate east, the fires are
raging in every direction from Helena.

Undoubtedly True.

The village trombone player was re.
turning through the fields on a very
dark night after an engagement at an
outing some miles away. where the
drink had proved too tempting for
him. Feeling rather Quaky and lonely,
he cOnsOled himself with a good blast
on his instrument to keep his cour-
age up Imagine his surprise when he
was answered by what sounded very
much like a rival at the other end Of
the field. He blew again, much hard
er. and there was a second response
this time almost in his ear. 1t was
from the farmers bull, who, in re-
Spouse to a challenge to a further con-
test, promptly tossed the challenger
into the cir. When he had recovered
from the shock the trombone player
shouted defantly into the darkness:
Eye great coward! But ah can tell We
one thing. my lad. Ye may be a vera
strong man, but ye're no musician"
