MONDAY
HURT SENTENCED TO
 LIFE IMPRISONMENT

Los Angeles. May lO-James H. Huirt. otherwise known as "Bluebelrd'' Watson and considered the arch crimi . nal of the present age, was today sen tenced to prison for the remainder of his life by Superior Judge Willis in punishment for the murder of at lcLst eight women at various times during the past four or five years. The death penalty was not imposed because of a pledge of immunity given by the authorities which was granted as the price of q full confession of his many crimes. During the course of the proceedings Huirt confessed 10 eight wife murders.
 So far the authorities have not dis closed the names of all of Huirt's vic tins. The names of the three victims revealed heretofore are Marie Austin of Calgary. Canada, whom Watson. as he was then known. beat to death witt a rock, aftcrward sinking the body in Lake Occur d'Alenc. Idaho, Eleanor Frazer, also of Calgary whom he drowned in Spokane Falls, and Nina Lee Deloney. for whose killing the murderer was sentenced.
 The language of the Court when sentencing Huirt to prison for the rese of his life was;
 James R. Watson, I sentence you to san Quentin prison for the term of your natural life
 Huirt. who is still suffering from the effects of the bullet wound inflicted on himself at the time of his arrest re- ceived the sentence seated. as he was to weak to stand. The face of the murderer was pale as death. his fin gers were entwined and he trembled percepitably as the court pronounced the penalty for his atrocious .lan ls. At no time did he raise his eyes to the bench hut kept his head down during the "nti'c sentence.
 I he crimes of the arch criminaI were charged fy Judge Willis. WI, imposed the sentence, as the most heinous' in sthc history of criminology.

That the district through which the government railroad operates is q big game country is evidenced by the fact that bull moose walked across the railroad. track within few yards of camp s6. in the Turnaga.n Arm dis trict. and was shot by l.. o. Nyberg foreman at the camp. The result Of the walking by of the moose and the successful shooting by Foreman Ny berg was that the occupants of the camp feasted during the week on the fat and choice portions of the carcass. At Talkeetna a mother bear and two cubs wandered about on the outskirts of the town. They were shot by H. R. Brown. deputy United States mar shal, and T. R. Owens. a former en- Iploye of the Alaskan engineering com mission. The carcasses were eaten by the residents of Talkeetna and the pelts were shipped to Anchorage for tanning and mounting.

Two Good Hunting Stories

Rev. p. w. Erickson is real hunt
er and nobody dares dispute his
claims out of respect for the cloth.
While hunting last week, he brot
down eleven ducks by firing seven
shells.
This recalls hunting story told
by Dudley L. Nash, prominent Minot
lawyer. Mr.. Nash does not hunt any
more and he explained the reason to
a friend in this fashion:
years ago I was practicing law
yer at White Earth, N. D., and went
out after chickens. l took two boxes
of shells along, Is shells to the box.
Hunting was good. There seemed to
be chickens everywhere. When l got
done shooting, threw my birds in the
buggy and drove back home. When
counted them, I found that with the
so shells l had killed exactly sixty
three chickens just concluded that
that wasn't hunting, it was slaughter,
so ! threw my old gun awav and have
MT done any hunting since"
