Brady'S goat" by his being able
to make difficult returns by
shifting his raquet to his left
hand. The singles last year
was not complete on account of
the inability of the Choteau
tennis disciples to stay over
the second day, leaving Powers

local camp it was considered
that DIETRICH would be an easy
winner over Taft in the finals

To Settle Contest
Home Arrests Surprise the
Fans by Putting Up
Fast Battle

Inc fanS VINO f0regathered at
the ball park Sunday afternoon
to watch the contest between
Cut Bank and Browning were
given more thrillers than they
expected. by a long ways. The
surmise was t h a Browning

in which the hungry cat enter

wasn't SO, deed it wasn't.
The cold fact Is that Brown

having to play ten innings of
hair-raising baseball before the
umpire could award them the
game. Cut Bank was a little
loose in the first frame, allow
ing the visitors to make two
tallies. After that the home
boys settled down and played
an article that surprised every
one, the Browning fans n d
players sharing in the surprise.
Cut Bank outbatted Brown

Cut Bank pulled himself out of
number of tight corners and
at no time was there a punching
of hits. On the other hand the
Cut Bank batSmen fell upon

of long drives and whipped the

is, the team work was excellent
and a little more practice will
give this town a team that will
not hesitate to tackle the best
any neighboring settlement has
to send along.
Wood umpired to the complete
satisfaction of both sides and
the game was characterized by
a fine spirit of friendly rivalry.
Cut Bank and Browning can be
depended upon to conduct ath-
letic contests without the slight
est danger of friction. The To-

WOMEN'S SUFFRAGE

there is not q man alive who can hope

woman. Woman rules when 1t comes to
selecting the car. This was not so near
ly true before the days OF the electric
starter. and other innovations which
have made the motor car effective In
the hands OF the women. Now that
II has become comparatively simple to
drive a gasolene car. women demand
them. and they have a great deal to say
when the subject OF new car Is up for
discussion over the breakfast table.
"Motorists, past. present and future
degree. regard the electric starter as the
one thing which has made It possible
for woman to operate a car with little
Inconvenience. I should say It Is the
reason women dominate the great cav
slcade OF motor cars which moves upon
streets and highways In every corner
OF the land.
1.-TWO things once made It difficult for
a woman to operate a car. One. starting
the motor; the other. gear shifting. and
the ever-present danger of choking the
engine.

vaded several Chinese shops without
any important result, "yoEder IS

talk to the boss about Chinese voting

use the very simplest English you
got"
The cub went inside the tea-shop
and thus addressed the proprietor:
John, how? Me-me-Telegrapn,
John! Newspape - savvy, John!
Newspape-print things. Un'stan !!
We want know what John think about

The Chinaman listened to all THIS
with profound gravity and then re-
piled:
"The question of granting the right
of suffrage to Chinese citizens VINO

the avowed intention Of making this
country their permanent home is one
that has occupied the attention OF
thoughtful men of all parties for years
and it may in time become OF para

ever, 1t seems to me that there is nc
exigency requiring an expression o.

You will please excuse me"

against lamp-post to rest and re
cover from a sudden faintness. hi

him against one of the best educated
