LIKE GLASGOW BOYS

Ralph Gilmore of Miles City was a
visitor in Glasgow this week. Mr..
Gilmore stated to Courier reporter
that the Glasgow company National
Guard, which is now stationed at Miles
City, had made big hit with the
people there. He says that the boys
are popular to man, and that if the
rest OF the U. S. troops measure up
to the Glasgow standard Uncle Sam
Will have no cause to worry as to the
showing the boys will make when they
arrive at the trenches.

S. UNION
POSTPONES CELEBRATION

1t is announced by the board of Off
GERS and managers of the American
Sunday School union that the central
celebration of the one hundredth an
nlversary of organized Sunday school
work in America has been indefinitely
postponed. During the days of trial,
through which our country is now
passing, it is considered inadvisable
to draw the missionaries and workers
OF this society from their fields of Ia
Dor to attend the week of anniversary
exercises in Philadelphia as originally
planned, particularly at a time when
special ministry will be called for both
to those engaged in the conflict and
to those in the homes, where the
wars effects will also be felt. Plans
for special service along this line are
already under way, one feature of
which is to provide our soldier and
sailor boys with wholesome litera-
ture.
This postponement will in no way
affect the general observance of Sum
day school centennial day by Sunday
schools of all denominations through
out the country, for which special ex-
ercises have been provided by the
American Sunday School union. While
Sunday, May 9Th, is the date original
" announced for this observance.
many schools will celebrate on the
second, third or fourth Sunday of
May. AS the object of this centennial
is to promote greater in
crest in Sunday school work through
tut the land, it is recommended that
very Sunday school take part.

GLASGOW TO RAISE
One MORE COMPANY
Patriotic Citizens to Drill Under
Capt. Hardy-Earned Title
in the Philippines

Development of the war situation
may lead to the organization in Glas-
gov of company of infantry to be
trained by Capt. E. J. Hardy, who is
located here. Capt. Hardy is now in
the employ of the Great Northern
railway as trainmaster in the first dis
trict of the Montana division, with
headquarters in Glasgow, and his
work has been well recognized by the
shippers all along the line, and should
the occasion arise whereby he did re-
enter the army service his departure
would be greatly regretted by them.
The ability of Capt. Hardy to
properly train a company for mill
tary duty is well substantiated by the
enviable record made by him as CAP
tin of Company M. of the goth regi-
ment of Kansas Infantry Volunteers.
This regiment saw service for two
years in the Philippines under the
leadership first, of the the late Gen.
Funston, and afterwards Co. Wilder
S. Metcalf. Company M. was in all
the big actions of the island from the
first battle of Manila to the attack
on San Fernando in June of 1899.
During all of the activities of the
OF the Kansas regiment Capt. Hardy
maintained his company up to the
highest standard and received very
commendable acknowledgment of its
proficiency. In addition to this SER
vice he also was chief Of scouts Sec.
Div. Eighth A. c. on all reconnois-
sance, which service brought him spe-
cial mention. In the event that a
company is formed at Glasgow, and
enough men are available, it will be
one ready for action within a shor.
period of time after Capt. Hardy
takes the men in hand. The patriot
ism of the citizens of Glasgow is we'll
demonstrated by the movement now
being made to form company to be
ready for army service either at home
or abroad.
Capt. Hardy has shown great mod
esty in relation to his past distin-
guished service for his country in
that few persons, except his most
intimate friends, have known of it,
and he very reluctantly permits any
reference to it even among his close |
friends. He prefers to be known as
trainmaster for the first division of
the Great Northern railway, which po-
sition from all reports, he has been
filling to the satisfaction of his en-
ployers and those shippers and travel
ers who use the line in this section
Of the state.

Trial in Cana T.
VALLEY COUNTY OFFICIALS PRAISED
Sheriff Powell and Deputy Teale Are
Warmly Praised BY the
Canadian officials for
Their Efficient Work

Ed Sparks and John Anderson, tw<
Of the gang of rustlers which infested
this part of Montana last year, have
been sentenced to serve penitentiary
terms for horse stealing in Canada.
The news of the trial which oc.
CURED some time ago reached here
recently. Clippings from the Moose
Jaw Times, in it's article on the case
follows:
ellis Honor Judge Ouseley this
morning in a lengthy judgment
found the two alleged horse thieves
Ed Sparks and John Anderson guilty
on count one in the indictment and
Anderson guilty of count six, and
after outlining the seriousness of the
offense committed the former to the
Prince Albert penitentiary for the
space of three and half years and
the latter to the same institution for
period of five years. In addition
to this sentence Anderson will have
to serve the balance of the term given
him by Judge Lamont in 1912, which
amounts to about three and a half
years more. A reserve case on counts
2, 8, 4, and was granted the two
accused.
"The star witness for the Crown, Mr..
Counce-Seidars, at the direction of
His Honor was also arrested in the
court room and will be charged as
an accessory after the fact, His
Honor holding him to be just as gull
ty as either of the prisoners in the
dock.
"The case which has created con-
siderable interest abounded in almost
all the crimes in the calendar, includ-
ing horse thieving, cattle rustling,
burglary, bigamy, illicit liquor SELL
ing and perjury, and in passing SEN
tence His Honor remarked that there
was very little difference between
the witnesses on either side.
During the hearing it developed
that Sheriffs Powell and Teale, of
Valley County, Montana, rendered
Sergeant Worgan great assistance in
apprehending these men in that state
and Sergeant Mundy was loud in his
praise of the assistance given him by
these officials and their officers. It
also transpired that in addition to the
large number of horses stolen in Can
ada, Valley County alone lost or had
stolen over 250 head of horses in 10
months, the majority of the thefts be-
ing put down to the work of the gang.
with the conviction and incarcera-
tion Of these two men one of the

Diary country Of the province is
brought to All abrupt end and the
farmers, ranchers and homesteaders
OF southern Saskatchewan and north
ern Montana and Dakota will have a |

tions of the gang"

JAPAN'S SHIPPING
SHOWS BIG GAINS

/ Much natural interest is taken by
Japanese merchants in the result OF
the recent shipping conference be-
I tween the three magnates, Baron R.
kondo, president Of the Nippon Yu'
sen Kaisha. Mr. S. Asano. president
Of the Togo kisen Kaisha, and Mr..
X. Hori, president Of the Osaka Sho-
sen kaisha, at the official residence
OF Baron X. Den, minister of COM
munications, at which they discussed
the question Of providing more car.
go space for trade with the United
States.
Their cooperative efforts will have
an important bearing upon Japan's
foreign trade which is rapidly expand
ing on account of the war. In 1915,
for example, the figures were 1900
100000 yen, while in 1915 they
amounted to 1,SOO, 100000 yen. There
are indications that the turnover this
year will be 2,500.000,00O yen which
is more than twice as much as for
1915. The bulk of this trade is be-
tween America and Japan, including
such an important item as raw silk
which alone amounted to 100000. 900
yen last year.
Although a large number of steam
ers have been newly placed on the
Pacific since the war began, the de.
mand for cargo space always exceeds
tie supply owing to the rapid prog.
ress of trade relations between Amer.
lea and Japan. There are now "a
steamers aggregating 1000 tons en-
gagged on the transpacific service,
whereas there were only IS steamers
351 900 tons in July, 1914,
just prior to the outbreak of the war
in Europe. These figures constitute
an increase of eight in number and
10000 in tonnage.
Besides these steamers running on
the regular schedule there are 20
more vessels aggregating 100000 tons
now operating on the Pacific, which |
we're not there before the war, max
ing a total Of 10000 tons in excess |
Of the figures for three years ago.

they were intended for commercial
purposes, as the cargo contained no

would be necessary for submarine
construction.
The o. J. D. Alters was in Sydney
at the time war was declared between
Great Britain and Germany and dur

Dor and made for Hilo. Hawaii, where
she was interned. The cargo in the

she was taken over by the American
government upon the severance or

On May 81 the steamer was towed
