SOVIET FORCES CLOSE ON CAPITAL; ENGLAND AND FRANCE TO SEND ARMS:
 us. AWAITS ACTION OF EUROPEANS
Polish Lines Go to Pieces and Foe Nears City from
 Three Sides

PARIS, Aug. g. - Warsaw Is doomed" was the remark heard everywhere today in official and political circles of Paris, replac- ing the belief expressed within the past few days "there will be another battle of the Marne."
 Circles which up to the pres ent had been most optimistic conceded the Bolsheviki had reached the Danzig-Warsaw rail road at Ciechanow, seVering con- nection between Warsaw and the sea. The military circles point out that the Polish capital is now hemmed in from the northeast, east and southeast and consider it's fall a question Of days, per haps hours.
 The latest Polish communica- tion announcing that the Bolshe- wiki captured Przasnsys and are moving westward toward MIawa and CiechanoW has created a 
 most painful impression in Paris, the afternoon papers announcing that the capture of the latter tow is a foregone conclusion. Ru- nors, absolutely confirmed, were circulated in the stock exchange this afternoon of General Pilsud- skis suicide. 1t brought market operations to a complete stand still.
 Russion Bclshevik attacks ap- parently have broken the Polish lines near the East Prussian from tier, and Soviet cavalry patrols have swept forward in a great en- circIing movement north of War saw. In the center of the Polish front the Soviet armies also seem to have torn a great gap in the defenses of Warsaw.
 Przasnysz, Al miles north of Warsaw, has been occupied by these advance guards of the sol- sheviki who are now reported to be approaching MIawa, to the west, and Ciechanow, to the southwest. The loss of PrzasnysZ is admitted in an official state ment issued in Warsaw last night and it would seem that the Soviet horsemen are advancing almost without serious opposIrrur.

New York, Feb. 27.-William Iar-
risen, a Colored man, homeless and
pennileSS, was taken from one Of
the subway stations where he hld
/ been finding refuge from the wiz
. tres scvereSt billiards by police
man who arrested him on a charge
of vagranCy. Harrison, who had
been a member of New York'S pride
| regiment, the Fighting 18th. had
been using the armory of this rcgi-
ment for shelter until ii was order
ed closed on account of the Flu"
epidemic. Without money, he had
to seek shelter elsewhere and had
gol,e where the police found him
in the subway station. Harrison
wac taken before Magistrate Simp-
son for trial, which turned out most
fortunate for him. He had claimed
to be a member of the 18th \. y.
Regiment and TO have been honora-
! bly, discharged after heroic service
in number of battles over France
and investigation of his claims by
probation officer Blumbcrg proved
the truth of his story.
1t happened that Magistrate Simp-

ganization of the 18th Regiment and
his sympathy at once went out to
Harrison in a time of great distress
and worry. The kind hearted Mag
istrate surprised Harrison when he

a record to be proud of. Many a

! Harrison was ofcourse discharged
after a purse of five dollars had
been raised for him. And thus the
greatest country on earth treats one
of her sons who had fought in several
fierce battles and who had been
three times gaSsed. And this is the
way New York rewards one of the

feet in plain view of the occupants
In January, 1864, "Whiskey Bill
Graves, one of Plummer's band OF
road agents, was captured and hang
ed just outside the old fort by Cap
tain Williams and fellow vigilantes
who had followed Graves across the
mountains from Virginia City.
In 1869 John owen sold the his
toric fort with other improvements
and a section of land to Major Wash
ington J.. Mccormick, one of Mon
tana's early pioneers, and a short
time later Major Owen returned to
Philadelphia, where he died shortly
afterward. During a terrific wind
storm which visited the Bitter Root
valley in February, 1889, the west
BALI of the old fort was demolished,
causing the death of Major McCor-
mick, who, with his family, was re-
temporarily at the fort. The
property passed to the Mccormick
and subsequently became the
property of Kate Higgins McCor-
mick, and a sister of Capt. G. p.
Higgins. one of the founders OF Mis-
ioula. Due to its adobe structure,
west half of the fort never was
'ebuilt, but the east half of it re-
mains in good condition.

sutler in the United States army, and
while travelling with the Mounted
Rifles" from Missouri o oregon, de-
cided to remain in the northwest and
take part in the Indian trade. He
settled nea Steyensville, then called
st. Mary's Mission, founded by the
Jesuit fathers, and built Fort Owen.
Major Owen later remodeled the fort
with adobe, or sun dried bricks, max
ing several substantial structures in
the form of an open quadrangle, only
one Of which structures o is stand
ing.
1t was used principally as a trad
ing post, but also was the necleus
around which the early settlers gath
cred, obtained supplies and sought
protection in the hour of danger. It
known far and wide for rhe hos
p~itality it offered to the early set
tiers and adventures in what then
was an almost unknown wilderness.
In 1860 Fort Benton in the east. and
Fort owen in the west, were the
chief settlements in Montana.
Whiskey BiII's Necktie Party.
No Indian battles took place
the old fort, but in the au-
.umn of 1852 one John F. Dodson

could dry his clothing-and partic-
ularly his moccasins-he could not
hope to get far. He figured that he
had one chance, and that lay in be-
ing able to find a good sized log that
had rotted inside and was dry enough
to make good finder. By good luck
he discovered just such a log, and
poking the barrel of his rifle into it
he shot three times in rapid success
sion. The flame from the black pow
der set fire to the rotten wood, and
on scraping it out he found embers
that he was able to blow into a flame.
He spent the night beside a roaring
fire, drying his garments and his
~moccasins, and then set out for Fort
Peck as fast as he could travel, his
hunger appeased only with smoking.
At nightfall he calculated that he
had made half of the distance, and
finding a convenient coulee and an
other rotten log, repeated his expert
ment of the day before and again
slept beside a fire. At daybreak he
started out again and before night
he reached the trading post.
An old man, Farwell, was in charge
of the post, and to him Colonel Nor
ris explained his predicament; he
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1920-09-30

had been commissioned to take
charge of the steamboat, but had lost
his papers. What vas he to do?
Farwell's advice conceded with his
own judgment, which was to go to
the man in charge of the boat and by
force, if necessary, take possession.
He learned that the captain had gone
down the river leaving a Waterman
in charge of the vessel. This watch
man, it appeared, had been under in
structions to set fire to the craft
with a view to the owners getting the
insurance. Some of the crew, how
ave caught the fireman in the act
and shot him, inflicting a slight
wound. The boats engineer had then
taken possession in behalf of the
crew, the members of which had not
been paid off.
Indians Killed Mate.
The captain had gone on down the
river in a m%ackinaw boat with some
of the crew, and had taken the sill
verware from the stewards pantry
and such other valuables as they
cauld conveniently carry. The mate
had been killed by the Sioux while
hunting near the fort.
The following morning Colonel
Norris went down to the boat, which
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1920-09-30

craftsmanship he had given was
enough to convince them that the
youngster's~medicine was good.
The plains Indian frequently used
to ride his horse with a short raw
hide rope half-hitched on the ami
mails lower jaw for a bride, and tie
the other end of the rope to his own
belt. Then, if thrown from the pony
or shot off, the animal did not get
away and leave its rider afoot. The
dead Sioux had done this, and as he
lay on the ground dead, his pony
stood beside him, unable to move off
without dragging his late master. The
young Missourian u~nfastened the
pony, mounted him, and taking the
dead braves pistol, knife and other
belongings he rode into Fort Peck,
the proudest youth west of the Mis-
sissippi. 1t is easy to believe that
the young man was a hero in the
eyes of the damsel that he loved, and
that they were married after they
reached the Gallatin, whittier they
were bound.
Boat Attacked by Sioux.
The Sioux, who infested the sur
rounding country in force, knew that
some Il on the boat had killed one
of their number, and they began to
pay a lot of attention to the yes
sci, especially at nights. When Col
onel Norris arrived, the man who
had done the killing had gone with
the rest of the passengers, so the col
onel found that he had inherited the
feud with the hostile Sioux.
The boats cook was a little Eng
lishman named Henry, who was a
tenderfoot in every of the word.
Colonel Norris, when he took pos
session of the after deck cabin, care
sealed up the windows with
gunny sacking, so that at night no
ray of light could shine through. He
instructed the cook never to open the +
door of the cabin at night when
there was a light inside, and to be
particularly careful not to do this if
he heard the dog barking.
One night the dog started to bark
furiously, and Henry, forgetting his
Instructions, opened the door. There
was a flash from behind an old cot
Lonwood tree on the bank, and a

With the transfer of the deed to
the property composing famous old
Fort Owen from Washington j. Nc
Cormick of Missoula to the Pioneers
Society Of Montana, probably the old
est historical building in the state
passed into the hands of the early
settlers. Mr.. Mccormick, who was
president of the Sons and Daughters
of Montana Pioneers, presented the
property to the society in homo. of his
mother, Mrs. K. H. Mccormick. 1t
is proposed that the property be used
as a monument to the pioneers and
probably as a historical museum.
Fort Owen marks the site of prob
ably the earliest permanent settle
ment in Montana. There Father De
Smet of the Jesuits, in 1840-41, es-
tablished st. Mary's mission. Major
Owen, about 10 years later, built the
fort as a refuge from which to trade
with the Indians.
Oldest Structure in State.
Fort Owen, believed to be the old
est historical structure in the state,
just north of Stevensyille, was es-
tablished in 1850 by Major John
Owen, himself a native of Philade1-
phia. Major Owen originally was a

ON THE MISSOURI River DN STEAMBOATDMG DAYS;
END OF THE STEAMBOAT TAC0MY; BAD WINTER AT FORT PECK

The Sioux got holder and holder,
and soon were constantly circling the
fort on the bluffs overhead. flash
ing their signal mirrors in the sun
and shooting down into the stockade.
Colonel Norris managed to stop this
to some extent by using a 12-pound
howitzer that he found on the boat.
One shot fell short of a party of
Indians, but killed a horse and fright
ened them off.
AS the winter passed, provisions
got lower and lower. The colonel
went out and killed a buffalo, and
this was the last good meat they had.
1t then got down to a diet of beaver
meat, and for several weeks they liv-
ed On this fare, trapping n or two
animals along the river bank every
day.
Toward spring United States Mar
shall William f. Wheeler arrived from
Helena in a mackinaw boat with one
or two other officials for the pur-
pose of selling the steamboat to sat-
isfy the claims against it. On the
way down the marshal had shot HIM
self in the arm accidentally with his
shotgun, and there was nothing to
dress the wound with at the fort, and
not even good soap to wash it with,
Wheeler suffered greatly and the in
jury was a long time healing. The
invalid had to share the beaver soup
diet with the rest.
When Colonel Norris took possess
sion of the boat he took every pos
sible precaution to protect it against
the spring flow of ice, and built a
bulkhead around the bow to pre-
vent it being crushed. However, in
spring, when the thaw came, one
side of the boat caught on the bank
and it slid down partly under water
and was in this wrecked. A
buyer for the owners came down
from Helena to bid as high as $4,000
for the boat if it was in good shape
but as a result of the condition of
The vessel he did not offer anything,
and the wreck sold for $3.50.
The fees of the United States mar
and district federal attorney
came before Colonel Norris claim
his services as deputy, and he
therefore did not get a cent for his
