MONTANA NOTES
TREASURE STATE TALES
TERSELY TOLD

Granville Stuart, the only surviving
member of the expedition that came to
Montana in 1857, died suddenly in his
home at Missoula after a short HI
ness. Stuart discovered gold in Gold
creek, between Missoula and Garrison,
In 1857, and has been credited with
making the first discovery of gold in
this part of the country, that place at
the time being in Idaho, the territory
of Montana being organized in 1864.
He was "a years old.
With Spanish influenza raging at
Libby, in northwestern Montana; in
Choteau, in central Montana; at Bill
lings and Scobey, in eastern Montana,
and at Whitehall and Twin Bridges. I'M
southern Montana, health officials are
of the opinion that only good luck and
hard work can prevent widespread
epidemic of this disease in Montana.
Louis Effinger charged with sedi-
ton, was found guilty and fined $500
in the district court at Missoula, the
jury fixing the penalty. Effinger, who
is well to do announced he would pay
the fine. He was born in this country
but his parents both were born in
Germany.

c,ared that the complaints have beer

THE RED CROSS COMES
By JEANNE JUDSON.

Lest we forget the simple joys,
The kindly thoughts, the human tears,
The harmless laughter and the song
We knew in other happier years,
Lest we grow hard, and cruel and cold,
And being young, our hearts are old,
Held in the grasp Of death undied,
The Red Cross comes to fill again,
The cup of mercy long since spilled;
Bid in our hearts the birds to sing.
Reviving joy that anger killed.
