TIES CHAMPION JOCKEY
Charles Burlingame of Lacrosse Seen
Here Many Times.

Charles Burlingame, the little La
Crosse jockey who has ridden at the
Kansas State Fair meetings for the
past two years, is winning for himself
a great name as rider.
The Butte (Mont.) Tribune says of
him:
Jockey Burlingame, whose meteoric
career in the saddle has been one of
the features of the local race meeting,
is an example of what clean living and
honesty can do towards making a sue
cessful Jockey.
Charles Burlingame enjoys the dis
tinction of heading the list of winning
jockeys during the Butte meeting and
is pressing the eastern crack jockey,
Merits Buxton, for the American hon
ors.
This lad, who is only 1s years of
age, is a native of Lacrosse, Kan,
where his father, L. Burlingame owns
a large ranch. The latter is here rae
ing Lehigh, Tallow Dip and others, at
the same time keeping an eye open for
his sons interest.
1T was four years ago that Jockey
Burlingane made his first winner
bringing Serville first past the post
a mile in 1:3S fat From that time on
he met with only ordinary success un-
til last summer when his riding at
Vancouver attracted the attention OF
many horsemen. Last winter BurIin-
winning a juvenile purse with Little
Bit at the long odds of 10 to l, at
Juarez- Meeting with the best boys in
the country at that place Burlingame
more than held his own and at the
close of the meeting was made many
offers to wend his way east and ride
for some of the biggest stables in the
United r,tates. However, he decided
to stay under his fathers wing with
the result tnat the boy is now the most E
jockey in the west.
With no bad habits this youth is
under the blankets before the curfew
rings and always willing to listen to
reason has profted by his learning
and is now at the top pinnacle OF
fame. Up to date he has ridden %
winners which is an average of al
most two a day. His efforts on horses
with a dislike for a route and his
ability to coax them to run over a
distance and win has given him the f.
name OF being the Wizard of the !
west -
Charlie Burlingame has tied Jockey
Buxton for first place as the champion
jockey in America.

Filled Mosaic Prescription.

A colored man walked into the store
of the Weatherhead Pharmacy Com
pany and told the clerk he wished a
particular prescription filed The clerk
held out his hand, and from beneath
his arm the customer extended a small
Bible and pointed to a passage
The druggist, Herman Brunke. was
puzzled, but he read the passage, which
was as follows:
Exodus, Xxx 1924: Take thou also un-
to thee principal spices, of pure sweet
rnyrr, 500 shekels and of sweet CHINA
mon half so much, even go shekels.
and of sweet calamUs $50 shekels. And
of ca ssia 500 shekels after the shekeI of
the sanctuary, and of olive oil a hin"
Mr.. Brunke went to work on the shekel
basis. and after consulting several au-
thorities found that the Phoenician
shekeI was 22412 grains. The coIored
visitor wanted 80 cents worth, put up in
the best way possible. and he displayed
samples that were not at all Satisfac-
tory, as they were nothing more nor
less than an alcoholic solution of the
products, tincture myrrh, oils, alcohol
etc.
After seaching the various Biblical
Concordances dictionaries, etc, at the
library which Is near the store-Mr.
Brunke found the necessary informa-
ton and also method of prepare ton.
Having very little time for extensive
work he decided the best way possible
was to take the requisite amount of
drugs in proportion. and oil to make up
the deficiency. boil with the olive oil,
and then filter while hot The unique
was thus filled and was
awaiting the clerical visitor on his re-

Fans of the city have been too quick
in criticising the outfielders while play
ing on the home lot. 1t is practically
impossible for outfieIders to play out
field hits properly on account of the
condition of the field which is hard and
dry. The ball defects or fails to bounce
at all, thus causing many hits to go
for extra bases or causing the fieIders
to make errors.

Bozeman speakers clash with the local
team Thursday, April "a, in the high
school assembly room. After a week
of letter-W writing and telegraphing
Principal Ketcham as a last resort has
agreed to hold the debate in this city,
in spite of the fact that it seemed to
be Missoula's privilege to be asked to
BoZeman.
So far Bozeman has had one de-
bate, and that one was held at Dillon.
AS the local speakers held a debate
with Butte in this city they looked
forward to holding the next contest
away from Missoula, and as the next
opponent was Bo2eman, they naturally
expected an invitation to that city.
Principal Parllin of the Gallatin
high school claimed that the inter-
district debates held at Bozeman the
last two years We're not q financial
success, and that therefore he believed
both teams should meet in Helena,
and toss Up for sides for MissouIa and
Bo2eman had both won on the mega
tive.
The Missoula debaters felt that
since the visiting team has the choice
of sides, and inasmuch as they had
given Butte the choice Of sides, that
they Were entitled to that privilege in
the debate with Bozeman. The latter
had their choice of sides when they
debated Dillon at Dillon.
In order to make them feel that they
We're getting square deal Principal
ketcham agreed to debate them on
new question. one school to choose the
question and the other to choose the
side. This proposition was not ac-
cepted. Indeed the BoZeman people
wired back that they would give Mis-
soula choice of sides on state question
if the debate is held here. This prop
osition was accepted under protest as
the arrangement will impose an un-
called-for burden on the local scholas-
ties The college debate will be held
next week, the final debate will be
held the week following, and the col
lege play will be given Friday the
25th, thereby making it necessary to
hold the debate on q week day.
The students and citizens who are
interested i'll the high school actiVi-
ties are willing to help make this de-
bate a success. The winner will be in
the final contest for the state cup,
and it is about five years since Mis-
soula has had a chance for the much
coveted trophy.
