OVER 500 MONTANA VETERANS
ARE ELIGIBLE FOR TRAINING

With 1870 World War veterans re-
ceiving vocational training from the
government in Montana, 40 or SO
more will be sent to the institutions
comprising the University of Mon
tana next week, says Lief Fredericks,
vocational supervisor In Montana,
who has his headquarters in Helena.
In addition to this number, nearly
500 others have been declared elig-
ible for training. Many of these
have requested that their training be
ing; while others have not yet been
able to decide what course or trade
they wish to take up. Scores, how
ever, are merely waiting for the
schools to open before commencing
their vocational studies.
A number of important changes
have been made in the rules under
which the vocational board operates,
states Mr.. Fredericks. The most sig
nificant change is that which places
the entire responsibility of a stu
dents training and final 'rehabilita-
tion upon the state office.
Formerly the selection of a course
and subsequent changes had to be
approved by the Minneapolis office
before being placed in effect. This
is no longer the case. The Helena
office will have complete jurisdiction
over men in training, with full au-
thority to change or extend courses
as seems necessary. Closer supervi-
sion and better and quicker service
to the men will result from the new
rule.
Under the new procedure the du-
ties of the state office will be great
ly increased and additional training
officers Will probably be needed in
the opinion of Mr.. Fredericks. Since
the first day of July trainers have
been receiving a minimum allowance
of 500 a month from the board in
stead of $50 as before.

tack of kidney disorder. The kidney
secretions passed too often and that
bothered me, especially at night, be-

Montana's population, as shown
by the figures given out by the
census bureau, is SAT, 500.

Montana's population, as shown
by the figures given out by the
census bureau, is SAT 500.
This is an increase of 171,540 or
ass per cent over the census OF
1910. Montana's population in the
1910 census was 376,053; in 1900 it
was 243,329; in 1890 it was 49,
926; In 1880 it was 39,159 and in
1870 it was 20,595.
Montana's population increased 80
per cent In the decade of 1870-1880.
In the 10 years which ended in 1890
it gained 267 per cent. In the period
from 1890 to 1900 it grew 50 per
cent, and in the decade which ended
in 1910 the increase was 54.54 per
cent.
The census figures on four states
were given out on the same day,
none of which show anything like
the increase of Montana. They are
as follows:
Montana 547,593; increase Ill.,
$40 or 45.6 per cent.
Illinois, 6~,485, 098; increase 846,-
507 or Is per cent.
New Mexico 360,247; increase 3d.
GAS or 10.1 per cent.
Louisiana, 1,797,79S; increase,
141,410 or 8.5 per cent.
Cook county, Illinois, containing
Chicago, 3,053,O17; increase 647,-
l784 DR. 26.9 per cent.
Galesburg, Illinois (~revised), 49,
1874; increase 1,745 or 7.9 per cent,
previously announced 23,785.
Pattiesburg, Miss, 1920; in
crease 1887 or 1871 per cent.
Rochester, N. Y. (revised), 1885,
$50; previously announced 295,S50.
Toledo, Ohio (revised), 243,164;
previously announced, 243,109.
The four states, the 1920 popula-
ton of which were announced by
the census bureau showed gradual
declines in their respective relative
increases over preceding decades.
Illinois has a population of 6.485,-
.098, an increase of 896,507, or Is
per cent over 1910. The state is ex-
pected to retain it's rank as the third
most populous state, although it's
1920 population shows the lowest
relative increase in the states his
tory.
Passes New Hampshire
Montana with a population of
547,593 showed an increase of ILL.,
$40 or 45.6 per cent ove 1910.
This was the states largest numeri-
cal increase, but its percentage in
crease, was the lowest, falling short
of its previous lowest relative in
crease of 1910 by 8.9 per cent. The
state ranked fortieth in 1910, but
has passed New Hampshire in the

lies buried a large fortune. 1t was
tho property of a nan known as
Beastly Butler. He was SO called be-
cause of his extreme carelessness in
dress and of his person. This was all
the more noted and criticized be-
cause of the fact that he was a man
Of unusual mind and education. He
worked diligently upon a placer
claim and made a lot of money,
which he put into tin cans and buried
somewhere near his cabin, it was sup
posed. One day he was killed by a
fall of earth on his claim. His fellow
citizens searched in vain. They
never found that gold. And it is still
there, somewhere. 1t is n of the
secrets of the Highlands. Perhaps
some day it will be found, and it will
be as great a find as Captain Kidd's
treasure.
There ARE a few graves in Red
Mountain City. While these are not
in any way marked-with one ex-
ception-still we have knowledge of
those who died there, and some mark
should be placed in the little ceme-
terry to tell future generations, as
we'll as the present generation, who
was buried there.
When the placers were worked
out and the town began to dwindle,
many of the claims were bought up
by Rod Leggat, others were turned
over to him on debts, and eventually
he owned the whole guleh. For a
number of years he stayed out there
and placer mined a couple of miles
down the gulch, but with no success
whatever. Whatever he may have
lost in this mining in Highland Gulch
was made up to him at a later day
when the Butte Water company ap-
preached him to find out what his
price would be for the water right
of all the Highland water. His price
was 100000. And he got it.

ward in Silver Star is another story,
too long to go into.
While the "gum-booters" were
busy washing out the yellow sand,
there was another class of prospect
ors none the less busy. These were
the ones who were after quartz. They
secured the hills around Red Noun
tain City, searching for something
more enduring than the fleeing
placer claims. With only two ex-
captions, none of the quartz discov-
cries amounted to anything. The
claims on the Ballarat lode gave food
for thought and speculation for
many months, and those on Nevin's
Hill paid we'll for a number of years.
The Nevins Hill claims were the
only ones that aver paid, and they
were worked for some years after
Red Mountain City was a thing of the
past. They are now being again
worked with the expectancy of find
ing great deposits. Nevins named his
