Fatal Fall From Wagon.

John M. Connolly, we'll known
resident of the upper Shonkin, was the
victim of q fatal accident Friday
afternoon while on the way from town
to his home. He was found lying in
the roadway in an unconscious con-
dition by Oliver P. Ritter, who
brought him to town, but the unfor.
tunate man died before his arrival
here.
Mr.. Connolly started for the Shon-
kin about three O'Clock Friday after.
noon, and the remains were brough,
to town less than two hours later. He
was taking out wagon load of lum
Der and ranch supplies, and had gone
about four miles when he fell from the
wagon and sustained fatal injuries
There was no eyewitness of the acci.
dent. but it is believed Mr.. Connolly
was thrown from his seat on the wagon,
and hat one of the horses kicked hin
on the head. A big gash on the fore
head supports this theory. The team
was found near the roadway some
distance from the scene of the accident

Nearly 10000 acres of land owned by

The land in question includes all OF
the sunnyside, the home ranch of the
Power holdings in Northern Montana,
the Crown Butte, the Toman and a
part of the N. S. ranches, and consid'
erable land near Square butte. In all
1t is estimated that about 10000 acres

The Chouteau County Fair.


The promise that the Chouteau
County Fair this year would be the
best ever held was fulfilled by the en-
terprising and energetic management
OF that institution. Former displays
have been highly creditable, but the
fair that closed Thursday was Ger.
calmly the biggest and best of the
series.
The exhibits in the agricultural de.
partment, which was the center OF at
traction, were superior to any collec-
tion OF such products heretofore dis
played in northern Montana. The
specimens OF grain, forage crops,
vegetables, fruits, etc., afforded q
demonstration of what can be done
along those lines under average con.
ditions, the exhibits from dry land
farms being especially noteworthy in
this respect. One of the features Of
the agricultural display consisted of
individual booths in which the grower
exhibited variety of products, and
10 some of these there were specimens
OF nearly everything that q garden
usually contains.
The art and educational department
was fully up to its former stand ard of
excellence, and the various exhibits at
tracted the attention of large number
of visitors.
The livestock entries for the fair
have increased to such an extent tn at
addition accommod ations had to be
provided for them, and the stables
and barns were filed with some of the
finest northern Montana specimens of
the various kinds of livestock. The
horse display this year was except.
ionally good.
The management of the fair was
successful in it's endeavor to make il
worth inspection and to provide en-.
teri atnment for visitors, and appre
citation of these efforts was shown by
q large attend ance from all parts o1
northern Montana. The weather con.
ditions we're somewhat unfortun ate
but this was something that could MOI
be controlled and was accepted as a
risk to which all such festivities are
exposed. The fair was all right, and
those who went to Chinook for the
event are unanimous In expressing
their opinion to that effect.

ESTEEMED BY NEIGHBORS.
Death of Senator Carter Was Shock
ga To Home Folks.

''s- To Home Folks.
HELENA, Sept. 1.-THE news of the
death of Senator Carter was distinct
shock to Helena people, as there was
no one who had any idea his health
was not robust. A few days ago he
wrote q friend here that he was CON-
PEELED to give up his intention to at
tend the state fair, owing to the fact
that the commission to take up the
questions connected with the waters
In this country and Canada was to
meet the last week In September. he
said it was the first state fair he had
missed and that he would rather At
tend it tha an 60 anywhere else In the
country.
At the close of the last campaign in
Montana, Senator Carter said he
found he could not stand as much as
formerly, but he rem arked, "Tom is
good for many years yet, neverthe.
less"
While politically Senator Garter
was bitterly fought In his home town,
Expressions of regret at his death
were general. Old neighbors we're the
most grieved at the news. Among
these Senator Carter was never the
politician, but always the neigh Dor.
When in town he often visited 1T most
unexpected times and was always q
welcome guest. They might vote
az ainst him, but they liked him as a
man.
Said T. J. Walsh, who was pitted
against Senator Carter in the cam.
paign year ago, and stumped the
state against him: cit goes without
saying that Senator Carter filled q
larger space in the life of the nation
than any other citizen of Montana has
ever occupied. Only through intel.
lectual gifts of the very highest orde.
could he have attained, in its coun.
ellis, the commanding influence he ex'
ercised. He had genius for political
management; the career of Mark
Hanna was scarcely more meteoric ir
that field. Within four years after
his entrance into the arena of nation.
al politics, as an obscure territorial
deleg ate, he had vaulted into the po
sition of chairman of the nationa al
committee of his party.
HE was no favored child of for
tune; he owed little to any effort saw
his own for the cultiv alton of the tai
ents with which nature endowed him
He was obliged to fight, and tough
valiantly In every race he made fol
the senatorship. He was at his ease
! in any gathering, however brilliant
, his scintillating wit and abund an
good humor made him q most charm
ing associate.

and in respect to many public Ques
