ELKS LODGE IN GLENDiVE
NOW FULLY ASSURED

According to a telegram received

dspensation by the Grand Exalted
Ruler who holds forth in San Fran.

member evidently having had the de-
sired effect.
II will be remembered that the
efforts of the local Elks, who were
trying to get a lodge in this city. had
received quite a setback by the re-
fusal of the Miles City Lodge to pass
on ten of our candidates who sought
to become members in the event of the
the local lOdg& being instituted.
This action on the part of the Miles
City bunch was taken after they had
given us every assurance that our
efforts to secure local lodge would
not be bucked by them There is only
one way in which a good Elk can
look at it: they liked us SO well they
hated to see US leave their protecting
wing.
The charter is expected any day, in
which event the formation of the Gate
City Lodge, B. p. O. E., will 60

GLENDIVE DEFEATS BEACH
SHOOTING CLAY PIGEONS

That the members of the Glendive
Gun Club have at last recovered their
shooting eyes, was seen Sunday at the
local grounds, when the crack Beach
squad, members of the Beach Gun
Club, were bested in social shoot
In the first round, Glendive killed
a total of 151 birds to Beach's 1873; in
the second round Glendive broke 142
of the clay birds to Beach's 122. The
total score stood: Glendive 293, Beach
26O.
Bowers of Glendive was high man
of the day, striking % out of Is in the
first round and hitting Is out of 25
in the second. Ray Lowe was second
best on either team, hitting Al birds
out of SO. Mcdowell showed great
improvement, getting 40 out of a poss-
ible so.
The day was ideal for shooting and
q goodly crowd was in attendance.
The Beach boys expressed themselves
as being highly pleased with the re-
ception they received at the hands Of
the local gun club, and they promised,

HEAVY RAINFALL
VISITS GLENDIvE

One of the heaviest rainfalls of the
present year visited the city and near
by country Monday evening. It is
estimated that more than an inch of
rain fell in the shower which did not
last more than one hour.
At one time there was more than a
foot of water on the main street and
same damage was done by water get
ting into cellars along that thorough
fare.
The wind which blew strongly from
the west, drove the rain in many cases,
beneath the shingles on the roofs of
many homes and caused considerable
damage in that respect.
1t continued to rain off and on, all
day Tuesday, and the truck farmers,
and city garden fends, as we'll as the
nearby farmers, are well satisfied with
the resultant moisture, which Is
bound to insure "some" crop this
summer.

FARMERS REQUEST DRINKING
FOUNTAIN BE PUT INTO
EARLY OPERATION

A number of farmers as we'll as
drivers of city teams have been heard
to inquire as to the probable cause for
the water not having yet been turned
on in the nice drinking fountain for
horses erected some time ago by the
Woman's Club near the corner Of Ken
drick avenue and west Bell street.
We Immediately tried to get City En-
gineer Handforth on the phone, and
after several attempts, had to give it
up, the city official probably having all
he could attend to on the outside look
ing after the sewers after the hard
rain of Monday night.
Mayor Baker said that he did not
know any reason why the water should
not be turned on and DR.. A. j. Du-
Frene, deputy state veterinarian stat
ed that the foot and mouth disease
had nothing to do with it, so we are
at loss to ascribe reason for the
horses being deprived of their aqua
pura.

WELL KNOWN STOCkMAN
PASSES TO GREAT BEYOND

George Harvey of Deer Creek, one
of the best known stockmen in this
part of the state died at the Grace
Hospital on Monday, May oath, on the
5Oth anniversary of his birth which
occurred on May oath, 1865.
His death followed an operation for
appendicitis performed by DR.. r. E.
Hathaway at the local hospital, the
previous week. He was in such bad
shape on reaching the city that it was
impossible to save him.
Deceased leaves a widow, whom he
married about a year ago, and her
little son. He also leaves brother,
James Harvey, and sister, Mrs.
Siggelkow.
Mr.. Harvey had been in Dawson Coun-
ty for the past % years and had ac-
cumulated quite a fortune in the rails
ing of horses, sheep and cattle. He
was a well known figure not only all
over the state of Montana but in the
big horse and cattle buying centres OF
the east as well.
The body was prepared for burial
at Lowe Brothers Undertaking par
lors, and after the services at the
Chapel, which were conducted by the
Rev. w. L. Meinzer, the remains were
shipped on No. yesterday morning
to Merrimac, Wis, for interment. The
body was accompanied to its last rest
ing place by Mrs. Harvey and her III
tie son, Mrs. Siggelkow and James
Harvey of this city, and two sisters
and brother, Margaret, Agnes and
John, all living in Wisconsin in the
vicinity Of Caledonia, their birthplace.
It is understood that sister OF the
deceased, Mrs. John Sim, died at Cal
edonia, Wis, just last week.

A Timely Rescue.
Had it not been for the meagre
protection afforded by the top of the
car being in position, the doctor
would surely have been crushed to
death. AS 1t was, he would have
drowned but for the assistance of the
three men mentioned above, who sue
ceeded in removing the heavy ma
chine from the injured mans body and
pulling him to safety.
After the injured man was taken
to the hospital, DR.. A. L. Hammered
was called and he made an examina-
tion and rendered medical first aid.
He said that the doctor would prob
ably be out in a week or two, but the
machine, goodness only knows when,
il ever.

GlENDlvE BAND DANCE
SUCCESSFUL SOCIAL AFFAIR

The popular dance given last Thurs
day evening at Krug Hall for the bene
fit of the Eastern Montana Band OF
this city was one of the best attended
and most keenly enjoyed affair of its
kind held in this city since the begin
ming of the new year.
More than 80 couples were on the
floor and tripped the light fantastic
to the strains of harmony produced by
the full Glendive Orchestra.
The dance followed a series of band
concerts given in front of the Orpheum
and Isis Theatres by the full band
of eighteen pieces, whose playing was
enjoyed by several hundred people in
spite of the cool weather and threat
ening rain.
The dance was winner in every
way, financially and socially, for
which the band boys wishes the Mon
itor to express its thanks to the peo-
pie for their hearty support and large
attendance.
It has been suggested by a number
of progressive citizens that outside Of
getting series of three games with
Sidney during the July 5th celebration,
the attraction that would bring the
most people to Glendive is Band
Contest between the home aggrega-
ton and those from Sidney, Fallon and
other nearby places.
There would have to be a substan-
tial prize offered, but it is thought
by many that the increased attend
ance would be well worth the money
spent for the prize.
