man with black beady eyes and shifty
look. He takes his arrest coolly and
sings alto in the Jail quartette.
Black was found living with a fam
lily composed of BENJAMIN Harry aged
rs years, and his widowed daughter
Mrs. Lillian Stollard, aged 30 years

a son, James Harry, aged 80 years, ad.
Joined that of the murdered man.
Black Told to "Stand Pat"
At the time of Blacks arrest, young
Harry, whom the officers would not
allow to talk privately to the prisoner
boldly told him to "Stand Pat and not
say word A bill of sale, however,
was later produced by the arrested
man, purporting to be the legal con-
veyance of the missing mans property
to Mrs. Stollard who had afterwards
transferred it to him, the considera-
ton being $4,000 which Mrs. Stollard
alleged she paid in cash to Garinger on
the day of his disappearance,
Bill Of Sale Thought to be Forgery.
The document was dated Oct, 18th,
and although it looked genuine to the
Jordan deputy. it was later examined
by county attorney Slattery and De,
tective Doyle, both of whom pronounce
ed it forgery, inasmuch as there was
no resemblance whatever between the
signature on the bill of sale and the
known signature of the man which was
seen on various county records in the
court house. Although Black told the
officers the document was signed in
the house, James Harry afterwards
stated that it was signed by Garinger
while on horseback, thus attempting
to account for the irregularity of the
handwriting.
Young Harry Next Arrested
The second arrest in the case was
that of James Harry, the old mans
son, who came into town on Nov. 20,
accompanied by Blacks sister Mrs.
Knight, and with whom he is said to
be living. He was taken into custody
by stock Inspector George Twible, the
incoming sheriff, as he alighted from
the train from Terry and to which
place he and Mrs. Knight had driven
by team from their ranch on Woody
Creek. Harry's first request of Jailer
Miller was that he be given bible.
He sticks to his cell and holds him
self aloof from the other prisoners.
He is supposed to have been the brains
of the crowd, and to have engineered
the entire DEAL
Father and Daughter in Custody.
The last and final arrests in the case
of old man Harry and his daughter,
were made last Tuesday by Slattery
and Doyle after the body of Garinger

He is supposed to have been MUIR

of two years standing with a neigh

saiu possession of his property, the
value of which is estimated at not to
exceed three hundred dollars.
County Attorney sIattery Starts In
vestigation.
The case was first brought to the
sttention of county attorney Slattery
on Nov 9Th, by the receipt of letter
from deputy sheriff Luke Tillotson of
Jordan, who had been informed the
week before, by Fred Bateman, of the
sudden disappearance of Garinger on
October 18th
As the case bore all the earmarks of
foul play and promised to be one Of
the most battling murder mysteries
ever recorded in this county, MIR.
Slattery engaged Detective Doyle, who
was in Glendiye on another matter at
The time, to assist him in the case. It
was detective Doyle, who by using the
most modern and scientific third de-
gree" methods known to criminOlOgy,
aruully directed the eyes of the wo-
man suspect repeatedly to the spot
which was afterwards found to con-
tain the body of the murdered man.
Lester Black Arrested First.

made at the instance of county at

BIG FOOTBALL GAME
Miles City and Wibaux High Schools
Will Play Off Tie in Glendive.

Next Saturday, December 9Th, will
be played the best football game ever
seen in Glendive. The Miles City and
Wibaux High School football teams
will meet at the Glendive Baseball
Park, which has been kindly loaned by
Manager, Healy, to play off the tie. and
to decide the championship of Eastern
Montana. These teams have already
this season played twice and each time
the home team won, consequently it
was decided to play the deciding game
on neutral ground and Glendive was
selected on account of our, wellknown
interest in sports as well as conven-
lent location.
For many years Miles High School
has had football team and always
strong one able to beat down all
opposition. This is the first time
that Miles supremacy has ever been
seriously questioned. Her team is as
strong as ever this year-it will be
remembered Miles won from the local
high school team 26 to 0 on the local
field about six weeks, ago in a splen-
did game. Two weeks later they de-
feated Wibaux by large score at
Miles but Wibaux turned the tables
and won from Miles at Wibaux two
weeks ago, Is to IA. This was q, great
upset as it was expected that Miles
would win easily However, Coach
Miller has done wonders with the Wi
baux team and from a raw, green
bunch, many of whom had never be-
fore seen a game, has developed q
strong, aggressive, fighting team that
was able to smash thru Miles strong
line for four touchdowns and also to
break up many of the Miles plays.
The game will be called at 2:30 P. M.
DR.. Hammered and F. s. P. Foss will
officiate and Prof. Nicodeme will be
head linesman. The winner will re-
ceive all the gate receipts and it is
hoped that Glendive people will sup
port the game literally as even the
winner is not likely to make expenses.

coroner's inquest which was held last
Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock, and
which was presided over by acting
coroner Joseph P. Parker who is a
justice of the peace as we'll as editor
of the Jordan Gazette, resulted in a
verdict that the dead man came to
his death by gun shot wounds and
blows on the head by criminal means
and that such acts were committed by
the four prisoners now under arrest
The coroner's jury was composed Of;
Joseph Winfield, Lester Hash, J, G.

son and Jay Case all of Jordan, at
which place the inquest was held. 80
Just a Few Friends Attend Funeral.
The body was then buried in the
cemetery at Jordan, and as the dead
man was not known to have relative
of any kind, the last sad rites were
performed and Witnessed by but
few friends who remained to lower
the body into its rough made grave.
j. Garinger Mysterious Character.
Garinger had been living on hta-
claim for the past eight years having
come from Oregon. He was born in
Cork, Ireland. While being sort of
mysterious character, mixing but little
with his ,neighbors. he was known to
have been of a peaceful disposition and
had no trouble of any kind until the
disputes and even gun plays took
place between the two families as to
the section boundary lines and it is
thought that the bad blood thus en-
gendered had something to do with the
killing. .za.
Shots Heard Morning of Disappearance
At the inquest. Fred Bateman testi-
fed that he had heard shots in the
direction of Garinger's claim about
$50 o'clock on the morning of Oct.
18th, the day the murdered man was
found to have disappeared, and the
day the bill of sale was dated. The
bill Of sale included everything on
Garinger's place except his white
