afternoon at Boulevard Field for the
benefit Of the Associated Charities

torious by the score of IL to 10. after
an uphill battle.
There might have been better
games played at the park formerly
occupied by the Richmond Colts and
better contests may be played there
again. but IL Is n sure thing that no

as did that contest yesterday. Men

Fought for supremacy on the diamond
Lively were the proceedings from
the time Pitcher Throck morton threw
the first bali TO "Stewdy" Graham the
initial kiwanian to face him, until
he retired the last man in the ninth
by Knocking Tommy Howell into a
state of coma by hitting him In the

unable To take his base and Umps
johnson called him out and ended tho
game.
Norman Calls Rotarians received
the worst Of the breaks. and the
k;wanans scored three runs in the
first inning. when they found the
offerings OF Throckmorton for four
singles. Whdncss on the part of the

kiwanians to push the trio of TALES
across.
The Kotarians scored one run in the
second inning, and tied the score in
the third by registering twice. Those
pesky kiwnnians. as Alvin Smith
called them. took the lead. in the

CUSTER COUNTY HENS LEAD
IN PRODUCTION OF EGGS

Austin Knapp of the Pine Hills has
won first place in the state farm
flock egg laying contest, being con-
Quoted this year by the department
of poultry of the University of Mon
tana, the third month in succession.
In March, Custer county took first
place, Ravalli county second and
Yellowstone county third. Mr.. Knapp
is the only Custer county farmer
entered in the contest. The only en-
try showing a loss to date is Cascade
county, which may be accounted for,
according to the judges, by the fact
that no meat, scraps or milk are be-
ing fed that flock.
The contest opened in December,
1920, and Custer county has held
first place during three of the first
four months. Mr.. Knapp entered
with 70 hens, percentage of egg pro-
duction for the month of March was
60, with a total number of eggs for
the month of 1910, the second
highest percentage of any county in
Montana. The average number of
eggs per hen for the month was 1871.
The average price of eggs for the
of March was 80 cents a dozen
making the returns per hen for the
month AZ cents with a profit per

DR.. Butler, whose responsibilities

SOME FAMOUS SCOUTS WHO FOUGHT WITH
CUSTER; WHO WAS THE LAST ONE ALIVE?

The New York Herald has just
buried another of the long line OF
"the last of Clusters scouts" This
time it is ~"Sargint" Jimmy Flanna-
gan, who was inferred at Mandan,
N. D., last month, after passing away
at his cabin in the upper Missouri
valley at the mouth of Sweet Briar
creek. Two weeks before John Nc
Kenzie, who came to the Black Hills
in the 70's, fought the Sioux and
secuted all over the northwest, died
at st. Onge, S. D., and the South Da-
kota Press gave him credit for being
"the last OF Clusters scouts"
1t would be interesting to know
where the New York Herald gets its
authority for the statement that
Flanagan was the last of Clusters
scouts, or that he was a scout at all,
in view of the statement contained
in the same article that Flanagan
was a non-commissioned officer of
the Seventh cavalry. The statement
made that he carried Clusters last
message to Reno, and thereby saved
his scalp, is also open to doubt. 1t
is a we'll known fact that the last
message Custer sem to Reno was
carried by Theodore w. Goldin, then
a trooper in the Seventh cavalry, and
a~fterward a well known citizen of
Evansville, Wisconsin, who is credit
ed with being the last survivor of
the regiment to see Custer alive. The
news story from the New York Her
aid follows in part:
1.-THE last Custer scout was as
long lived as the last servant of
George Washington; the end of
the line, it almost seemed, would
never come. But when they buried
~"Sargint" Jimmy Flanagan last
Sunday at Mandan, N. D., the last
of his race undoubtedly passed.
Any claimant now to being the last
real genuine survivor of General
George Clusters scouts had better
be on his guard, for he may hear

Civil war as a trooper il a, Kansas
regiment.
In the late COS he drifted to the
northwest, where his remarkable
gifts as a hunter quickly earned him
a wide reputation. For some time
ne was employed at Fort Rice and
Fort Stevenson to furnish fresh meat.
The phrase, Reynolds luck" be-
came a familiar n among hunters
and trappers. Among the eros Ven
tres, Arickaree and Mandan Indian
tribes at Fort Berthold, with whom
he frequently came in contact, his
prowess was attributed to magic, or
medicine" and their superstitious
Jealousy caused him some narrow es-
capes from death. He was always
entirely cool and absolutely fearless
in the face of danger.
When he was killed on the Little
Big Horn, Reynolds was 80 years old,
a slender, sinewy man, five feet eight
inches in height, slightly stoop-shoul-
dered, with restless gray eyes and a
voice as gentle as a woman's. Like
Yellowstone" Kelly, he was very
chary of speech, seeming even surly
on short acquaintance, though such
was not the case, for his disposition
cheerful and his generosity such
that he would hesitate at no sacrifice
for a friend. He had an almost UNI
canny intuition in finding new trails,
and his mind was a veritable map of
any country he had ever passed
through.
For several days before the Custer
Reynolds had been suffering
from a felon on his finger. Just be-
fore the expedition started it was
suggested that Reynolds, whose face
was pale and drawn from loss of
sleep, remain behind with the steam
err Far West. He said: II have been
waiting two years for this expedition
and I would sooner die than miss it,
Reynolds was shot through the
heart in the hot fight that Reno's re-
treating column had on the river bot
of the Little Big Horn. He had
with DR.. H. r. Porter, of the

camp about 8 O'Clock in the morning.
Gibbon did not move Terry steamed
up to where Gibbon was the next
day. We then went to the mouth of
the Rose Bud. Clusters command
came up on the opposite side and
camped. That afternoon they had a
council of war on the steamer Far
West. Custer, Brisban, Gibbon and
Terry were there. Custer sent across
the river for me. When l reached
them they had a map lying on the
table, and as | stepped up Custer put
