HARL LOWT0N DE-
FEATS KLEIN
In Very Ragged and Unsatisfactory Game on the Part
Of Klein by a Score Of Ten to Two---
Shut-out Ball to Eighth

Harlowton defeated Klein in a
game Of baseball last Sunday by
score Of ten to two. The Klein
boys did not play their usual stiff
game, but went to pieces at sever
al critical times. The Harlowton
team played good ball from start
to finish. The two runs which
the visitors got in the eighth were
due to an excusable error. They
were blanked up to the eighth.
A fair sized crowd was out to
see the game, but not nearly as
many as should attend. The To-
Gals are putting up fast, clean
game and deserve better support
than they are getting.
The following is the score:
The Harlowton news., 1913-06-13
Notes Of the Game

kropp got four chances in center
field and accepted all Of them.
Caine played a good game on
second. He is very fast on bases.
His one error was an excusable
one.
Grivetti was in form to pitch
shut out game if it were necessary.
All the locals are improving in
base-running. They ought TO
practice bunting more as they lost
one Or two runs in the second by
not bunting.
This is the third victory for the
locals without a defeat.
Klein has defeated Roundup
every game this season, but are
not fast enough for Harlowto1l.
There were a number of visitors
from Twodot to see the game.
Klopp says that the Klein third
baseman has hard head.
Pete Nissen, book keeper for the
Montana Flour Mills, left last Mon
day on No. 16 for a three weeks
vacation. He will visit the Twin
Cities and other eastern points

Everybody + vel Get Busy and
Build a Float that will
be a Prize Winner

HarloWton business men do not
go at a task half-heartedly and
they are not going to put OH a bum
show on the Fourth Of July.
There is going to be something do
ing every minute of the day. The
big street parade will be some pa
geant and every feature will be
worth the entrance money.
Steps are being taken to inter.
est as many business men as posi-
Bile in the idea Of rest rooms for
the women and children. Many
mothers cannot come without
bringing the. babies and it is an
awful job for the poor mother to
lug around a large sized healthy
baby on a hot day. If she knew
there would be place provided
for her where she could take baby
and rest for awhile she would bG
much more willing to visit the
town. While it is expected that
the merchants of the town will all
close that day yet it could be ar
ranged for a corner of their stores
to be given over to tired mothers
for a season of rest OF better yet,
if a vacant tstoreroom could be rent
ed for the day and fixed up with
chairs and ice water it would be
most highly appreciated. One or
two of the merchants have already
signifed their willingness to devote
a corner to the ladies and children
for rest room and we believe the
idea will be generously seconded.
The fireworks display at night
will be one Of the features of the
day and will be worth coming miles
to see. A grand ball will be given
in the evening in the opera house,
which no doubt will be generously
spatronized by the young people,
and while we say young people we
do not mean to intimate that the
old folks will not be allowed to
dance. The main feature of the
day will be to have a good time
and no restrictions will be placed
on the having of a good time ex-
cept on those that violate the]laws
Of common decency.
The merchants are urged to pay
especial attention to the building
of floats and make this feature one
to be remembered. There are a
large number of automobiles in
and around HarloWton and hum
mer of a parade can be given.
Red lemonade and hot tafy will
be provided in abundance and the
boys will not be barred from hold
ing their sWeethearts' hands in
public.

hart told him to see a lawyer for a
settlement. just after the noon
hour Albert Yantz accompanied by
his father, VIM. Yantz, started for
the ranch of the former, walking
and each carrying pack ON his
back and leading two colts.
When near the home Of Oscar Cass
they were overtaken by Jesse
I4ockhart and his brother Lee who
we're riding in buggy. The evi-
dence Of the two parties to the
quarrel disagree as to whether the
Lockharts stopped the rig and be-
gan the trouble or whether the
Yantzs halted them. However,
there was an altercation which
ended fatally for one of the Lock.
harts.
After the killing the Yantzs
assisted Lee Lockhart in putting
his brothers body into the rig and
bringing it back to town and then
surrendered themselves to Deputy
Sheriff Karnop. VIM. Yantz, the
father, received two bad cuts and
a bruise on the top of his head,
which the testimony of the Yantzs
at the Coroner's inquest said were
inflicted by the murdered man
beating him over the head with
the butt end Of his revolver.
DR.. S. X. Campbell performed
an autopsy on the body Of the
murdered man and found that he
had been shot through the lower
part Of the right arm, the bullet
passing through the arm, through
the body and coming out on the
left side.
G. G. Perkins, the undertaken, in
preparing the body for burial found
the bullet in the clothing. DR..
Campbell said the bullet was from
a small calibered revolver. The
gun used was a 80 calibre. When
Albert Yantz was called TO the
stand he was informed by Deputy
Prosecuting Attorney w. G. Hus-
band that he could use his own
judgement in testifying. The
young man said that he did not
know what to do as he had never
been placed in a like position be-
fore. Mr.. Husband informed him
that he was not at liberty to ad-
wise him but that he could ask adj
vice from anyone lie chose. The
young man then conferred with
his father and decided to 60 on the
stand. Both the Yantzs made ex-
cellent witnesses for the defense
and impressed the audience with
their general attitude throughout
the trying experience.
VIM. Yantz is switchman fol
the Milwaukee railroad while the
defendant is a rancher.
