CONFESSED MURDERER
BEGINS PRISON SENTENCE

tywood.-Charles Johnson, aged
30, pleaded guilty in district court here
to second degree murder and was
given an indeterminate sentence in the
state prison at Deer Lodge of from
IL to 40 years, and is now in the peni-
Tertiary.
Johnson has been held here since
last August for the murder with
knife of Mrs. Daniels, his sister-in-
law, in her shack near Redstone, the
latter part of August. Catching a pass
ing farmers rig he told of the affair
and said he was on his way to kill
his wife IN a similar manner.
A posse at Redstone started in pur-
suit of Johnson and he was only cap
tured after being wounded. Before
being overtaken he cut his throat with
a jackknife, but soon recovered. Be
lieving that Mrs. Daniels wanted his
wife to lead a life of shame with
her was his alleged motive for the
murder.

PHONE COMPANY ORGANIZES
Will Build New Line in Custer County
to Connect Miles City
With Sheridan.

Miles City.-A new telephone com
pany has been organized in Southern
Custer county within the proposed
new county of Holt to construct and
operated a telephone system between
Powderville and Spears ranch. The
latter point has telephone line con-
Meeting with Sheridan, Wyo., and the
former has q telephone line to Miles
City, and the new line will therefore
connect Miles City with Sheridan.
The territory to be traversed by the
new line is about 80 miles long. 1t
will give to a large number of ranches
and farmers who are now without tele-
phone facilities direct communication
with Miles City and Sheridan, and will
include new points, such as Broadus,
Graham, Pinto and Moorhead.
The articles of incorporation of the
new company, which is called the
Powder River Telephone company,
have been filed in the office of the
county clerk by Sharpless Walker, at
torney for the company. The capital
stock has nearly all been subscribed,
the work of setting the poles and in
stalling the system will begin ct once
and it is expected that the new ex-
change will be ready for use by early
summer.

ACID PLANT TO BECOME
SNOWFLAKE AT ANACONDA,

Anaconda.-As it nears completion
the big acid plant on the fiat east of
Anaconda is growing more interesting
and promises to rank as one of the
show places of the city. 1t is one of
the colossal departments of the re-
duction works industry in Anaconda
The building is 100x370 feet, with
the outside walls 60 feet high at the
caves. The round tanks and chamb-
ers are on the second floor, while the
blowers. square tanks and other equip
ment, including connecting pipes, are
on the ground floor.
The furnaces are at the north end
of the building, to which the concen-
trates will be brought in cars from the
hill for roasting. They will go first
to the Wedge furnaces, which are
somewhat similar to the McDougalls
installed in the calcining plant at the.
reduction works, though larger and
somewhat different in construction,
one feature being provision for get
ing at them from the inside for re-
pairs.

BUILDING MODEL AERoPLANE.
Butte Aeronsut Plans to Eliminate
Danger in FIying-ModeI Adopt
ed for Military Use.

Butte-John w. Pinkerton of Butte,
| an aeronaut with five years expert.
ence, and miner in the st. Lawrence,
is engaged during his leisure hours in
building model aeroplane which con-
forms generally to the accepted stand
ards and at the same time has num-
Der of features for which patents have
been asked.
When the little model is. completed
Mr.. Pinkerton will begin the construc.
ton of flying machine measuring 36
feet from tip to tip, to be equipped
with a high-power Gnome engine and
to be used as demonstrating ma
chine. Mr.. Pinkerton has already re-
ceived number of patents for ma
chine which he contemplated building
several months ago, but gave them up
when he started the second machine
with improvements. The inventor
plants ultimately to form stock com
pany to aid him in selling his ma
chine to the United States and foreign
governments.
The machine Mr.. Pinkerton is now
working on will be peculiarly adapted
for military use. The model which he
has on exhibition in the machineshop
of Chichester & Gilman, 235 South
Main street, shows only few OF the
new ideas.
One of the devices is styled by the
aeronaut as an automatic lateral bal
ance. Other features will be put on
big machine, work on which will be-
gin within a short time. The automatic
lateral balance makes it possible for
the operator to glide safely To earth
without the use of the engine and to
do so with three of the four balance
devices destroyed. These inventions
are made in anticipation of the accu-
rate craftsmanship of an enemy and
will permit the air scout to glide to
earth after his machine has been hit
in what are the vital parts of other
machines.

quired the clergyman.
mo-" was the verger's response.
"Then they can be married again"
said the vicar. "Tell Mr.. - l will
be at the church in a minute or two
to perform the ceremony"
In due course the incumbent made
his way to the church and found the
parties gathered at the entrance. Be-
fore he could say anything one of the
bridegrooms approached and said:
I'VE have been talking it over, sir,
and we have made up our minds to

TO BEGIN WORK ON HIGH
WAY OVER PRIEST PASS.

Helena.-The last obstacle in con-
over the Priest pass to Deer Lodge
was removed when the commission
ers of this county came to an agree
ment with two ranch owners whose
property it will be necessary to go
through. Work ON the road will be-
gin as soon as the weather will per-
init. Residents of Powell county have
beel trying for years to get road
from Powell county through to Helena
over the Priest pass, and last year
they completed a road through their
county to the Lewis and Clark county
line. The total cost of building that
part of the road in this county will
amount to $3.50, including the pur-
chase of the right of way. The new
road will require the building o. seven
miles of roadway in this county. The
grade over the mountain will be COM
paratively easy.
The Priest pass stretch will become
unit of the state highway to Mis-
soula and also to Deer Lodge and
Butte. Since Dec. 20 the state high
way commission has had crew of
100 prisoners to work on Beck hill,
between Avon and Garrison, piece of
road that has always been a. terror to
automobiles because of rhe grade,
attaining a maximum of more than Is
per cent. When the prison crew COM
pletes the job the grade will be not
over per cent.

WONDERFUL HOW RESINOL
STOPS ITCHING AT ONCE

To those who have endured for years
the itching torments of eczema or other
such skin-eruption, the relief that the
FIRST use of resinol ointment and res
mol soap gives is perfectly incredible.
After all the suffering they have
endured and all the useless treatments
they spent good money for, they can
not believe anything SO simple, mild
and inexpensive can stop the itching
and burning INSTANTLY! And they
find it still more wonderful that the
improvement is permanent and that
resinol really drives away the erup-
ton completely in a very short time.
Perhaps there is a pleasant surprise
like this in store for you. Resinol ONT
ment and resinol soap are sold by all

INDICATIONS OF
AN EARLY SPRING
Great Prosperity Ahead for
Western Canada.

The most recent advices from all
points in Western Canada report that
conditions are apparent for an early
spring. Farmers are going over the
implements, getting their seeders
ready for operation, the plows in shape
for extended breaking, and there Ii a
general optimism. A great many new
settlers have already arrived. and the
reports from Canadian Government
agents in the United States point to
the fact that in few days there will
begin the usual emigration from va
rious of the Central and Western
states. From the Eastern states the
number of farmers going to Canada
will be greater than in any past year.
There has been a fairly large snow
fall during the winter, which will
greatly add to the precipitation OF
last fall, which in the opinion OF old
timers was in itself sufficient to in
sure good crop during the present
year.
There will be very little titled land
that will be without crop this year.
The authorities, though, are pleading
with the farmers to seed only such
land as has had careful preparation, for
rich as is the soil of Western Canada,
1t is no more fitted to produce good
crops uncultivated than is that OF any
other land anywhere else. There
have been accounts of failures in some
portions of the agricultural districts OF
Western Canada, and also reports OF
small yields in some districts. A good
deal of this is accounted for from the
fact that notwithstanding the advice
of men OF experience, there are farm
ers who will persist in seeding land not
properly prepared. This may be done
this year, but those who cultivate on
reasonable and logical methods will
be certain Of a paying crop. There is
every reason to believe that the high
prices of all kinds of grain will con-
tinue.
With thousands and thousands OF
acres of land waiting for the husband
man to bring it forth with crop, 1t
Is no wonder that Western Canada is
continuing to prove such an inviting
field for the agriculturist.
Seventy million dollars is a con-
sentative estimate OF orders which
came to Canada as the direct result
Of the war. Governments OF the al
lies have been placing large orders in |
Canada and buying huge quantities OF |
supplies for cash.
The total value of exports to Eu-
,ope from Canada has jumped about
L5 per cent since the war started,
while in certain lines the increases i
lave been enormous.
Therefore the results Of the demand
# the allies for war and other material
8 beginning to be felt in the financial
lie OF the Dominion. There is marked l.
ctivity in many commercial lines, and
onditions are fast becoming normal.

I've benefit to the East-Advertiss-
