Merritt OWsley, Paul Dornblaser and
Pete Roman, the three university foot
ball players who left Friday for a
hunting trip in the hills near st Regis
returned yesterday afternoon. All they
got was back and a tomcat. OWsley
gets credit for the feline. but doesn't
insist on it. The killing occurred
early in the evening of the first day
in the hills. Roman and Dornblaser
We're inside the cabin which served as
Il hunting lodge, cooking supper for
0Wslev, who rested outside. They saw
nothing of the kill, but heard a
screech, a shot and then saw OWsley
run into the cabin and lock the door.
The nimrod insisted that a mountain
lion had charged him. The others took
his word and stayed inside. In the
morning the hunters found a tomcat
with Il bullet through it's head lying
outside the cabin door, Each of the
hunters got "a shot at a deer, but all

ONE-MAN STUMP FULLER
TO Be DEMONSTRATED

The famous Australian X" one
man stump puller is to receive a
practical test of what it can do near
Frenchtown on Monday, between the
hours of 1890 and p. M
An automobile will be at the North
ern Pacific depot, FrenchtoWn, on ar
rival of train leaving Missoula, at
1880 a. M, to take all those wishing
to witness the test. to the field where
the demonstration is to be given. Re
turn can be made on the Northern
Paclflc railway or on the Milwaukee
train, arriving in Missoula at AIS
and 5:3S p. m respectively.
The cables used with these ma
chimes, are manufactured expressly
for them, in Sheffield, England, OF
the finest steel; and it is claimed that
with one of these stump pullers one
man can pull anything that one of
these cables, one inch in diameter,
will hold.
Should this claim be substantiated
1t IS certain to revolutionize methods
of clearing land in this country: so
reducing the expense, that much
greater areas of land can be cleared.
The machine is SO light it can be
easily moved about by one man, and
a set made very quickly, and with
out having to clear for it.
The agency for this device for the
state of Montana, is held. by the

us to a stop, facing one another
was of this business in a way; but
yet was of such vast import to a.
young man just at the years of his
greatest power, that felt as if a sim

He put it this way: "Mr. French.

take care of themselves?"

THE size of the cotton crop does

The quality OF cotton has great
