THOMAS A. NARROW ASKED TO
AID IN SELECTING YOUTHS
FOR RESERVE OFFICERS
Idea Is to Build Up Corps of Well
Trained Officers For Amy Future
Emergency; Training Camps at
Camp Lewis and the Preside; Max
GOOdsill MarlOw's Aide.

Thomas A. NARROW of Helena, by
reason OF his service during the war
on the officers training camp COM
mittee in Montana. again has been
asked to aid in the enrolment of
Montana representatives in the citi-
zens' military training camps in the
Ninth corps area.
NARROW has passed on this duty
10 the secretary of the Helena COM
mercial club, whose office will be
utilized for furnishing application
forms and information concerning
the camps. Those wishing to attend
the camps may apply at the CONNER
cial club, NARROW advises.
Congress has appropriated ST.
100000 for the citizens military
training camps this summer" said
NARROW. The government desires
that men between the ages of 16 and
IS enroll. / am informed that all
expenses, including transportation,
are paid by the government, and it is
intended to return the citizen soldiers
home with an increased chest meas
| urement, more erect, and in better
health than when they entered the
camp.
! 1.-THE camps will be from July 6 to
August 5 at the Preside, CAL, and

STATE HAS A new
PUBLICITY PLAN
"NIONTANA 1927 WILL TELL THE
WORLD OF SCENIC GRANDEUR
OF OUR MOUNTAINS
Agricultural Information Will Also
be Included in Volume to he Pub
lished by State Department, but it
Will be Devoted Principally to At
tracing Tourists.

The department of agriculture, la
Dor and industry is contemplating the
inauguration of new policy in the
issuance of publications designed to
advertise the state and bring in more
capital, more home-seekers and en-
nance the prosperity of Montana citi-
zens generally, according to Commits
sioner c. c. Davis.
There are number of reasons
why this seems advisa ble," explained
Davis. For one thing, the depart
ment, which now embodies nine divi-
sions, commissions, boards or bu-
reaus, has only $4,000 a year avail
able for all the publications it is re-
quired to issue. We are, therefore,
of necessity compelled to hold down
the variety of publications to a mini
mum.
Instead of issuing 1921 Mon
tana' similar to those published by
the department in the past, depicting
the growth OF the state agricultural
ly and industrially, we contemplate
the issuance of 1921 Montana
featuring the attractiveness of the
state from a tourist point OF view
The agricultural and industry possi-
bilities of the state will be considered
but the emphasis will be laid upon
the states magnificent summer eli
mate, its majestic mountains. it's
lakes and rivers, and its fishing and
hunting.
Proper distribution of this publ
cation should give more immediate
and direct financial results to Mon
tana. Stephen T. Mather, director Of
the national park service, estimates
that each visitor leaves not less than
$50 in each community where he
stops. Last year 1871 people visit
ed Yellowstone national park and
22,449 visited Glacier park. Through
the cooperation of this department
with the various commercial clubs.
the automobile associations and SINH
lar organizations there is no doubt
but that thousands of these visitors
could be induced to spend some time
in Montana.
Under existing conditions it seems
more advisable that the department
devote its efforts rather toward i'm
proving the marketing and economic
situation Of the farmers already here.
than to attempt to bring in more
farmers at present.
Statistical information, heretofore
incorporated in Montana and the re-
ports of the old department of labor
and industry. will be compiled and
will be available to all persons inter-
ested. 1t is probable that the sta.
tistica1 department. in cooperation
with the federal crop statistician for
Montana will issue purely statisti.
cal report toward the end of this
year.
1T is our idea that the 1922 edi.
ton of Montana would emphasize
the agricultural and industrial posi-.
bilities of the state and its growth
and development along those lines
Under this contemplated policy
the department could function unde,
its limited appropriation and at The
same time adequately treat of Mon
ltana's varied opportunities"

JAIL TEX" HUNTER
AFTER LONG CHASE
BOOTLEGGER JUMPED BOND IN
MONTANA; IS CAPTURED AT
GREYBULL, WYOMING

T. B. (Tex) Hunter, convicted
bootlegger and the man who jumped
his bond Of $500 at Great Falls ra-
ther than appear in court to answer
to the charge of manufacturing In
toxicating liquors. has been captured.
Word was received by Sheriff Gordon
of Cascade county stating that "Tex''
was arrested in Greybull, Wyo.. and
is now spending his time behind the
bars in Billings jail. The informa-
ton given Sheriff Gordon came from
United States Marshal Joseph L.
Asbridge.
'.Jumped' $500 Bond
Hunter mysteriously disappeared
from Great Falls in December, 1920,
shortly before he was to stand trial
In federal court with C. C. Hopkins
on the charge that he and Hopkins
were the operators of q still. confis-
Gated at 1914 Central avenue. Five
days prior to his arrest on this charge
In September, he was fined $500 BY
Federal Judge George Bourquin for
transporting liquor. At that time
''Tex" received the warning that his
next appearance In court would mean
deeper and much hotter water for
him. He took the warning to heart
and no more has been seen or heard
of him since.
Was Thought In Mexico
Reports were current In Great
Falls that Hunter had made his trail
across one of the national borders.
1t was the prevailing opinion that he
was hiding away in Mexico and that
he had left Montana never to return.
The last belief has been disproved
and "Tex" has returned. but not Of
his own volition. Hunter Was VEN
known to the prohibition enforce
ment officers In Cascade county.

Mrs. Nat Collins. ~, for many
years known as the Cattle Queen of
Montana" and one of the most wide
~ known pioneers of the state, died
at her home at Choteau last week as
the result of a general breakdown
due to the infirmities of old age. She
was buried in the cemetery there.
Mrs. Collins, whose maiden name
was E beth Smith, crossed
the plains with her parents to Den
YER in 1859. She was at that time
Is years of age. In 1862 she accom-
panied her parents to Montana by
mule train. The trip was made
through Wyoming and was accom-
plished only after many hardsbips
and incidents, which Mrs. Collins
was fond of relating.
When the train was only five days
out Of Denver it stopped to allow a
stampeding herd of buffalo to pass.
When the animals were gone 1t was
discovered that they had been driven
by Indian hunters, who Immediately
gave up the chase to visit the wagon
train.
The emigrants, wishing to be as
friendly as possible. offered the In
dams food. That was the first and
only time, Mrs. Collins said. that she
ever saw Indians seat their squaws
about the fire and allow them to be
served first. Then the men seated
themselves and the sQuaws waited
upon them. The Indians followed
along with the wagon train for three
days but finally left it.
Mrs. Collins, because of her ability

tiles swarmed through all the region
in great numbers. l had my hands
full at the time, and every subse-
quent attempt to find the rotten gold
quartz has been baked in one way
or another"
1t is possible, and even probable,
say prospectors, that the auriferous
mound of the soldiers was an out
crop of the Lost Cabin mine. Since
the discovery, numerous expeditions
have been outfitted and several lives
lost in the search. So confident are
people that the Lost Cabin mine is no
myth that it has been and is still dill
gently searched for.

TRAGEDY STALKS AT ELBOWS OF THE MEN
WHO FIND RICH MINES, PR0SPECT0RS SAY

Sudden riches often lead to mad
ness, say old Montana pr0spectors.
Often the mere idea that he has ac-
CURED q vast fortune unsettles q
mans mind. Also, tragedy In some
dreadful form stalks often at the ell
bow Of those searchers for wealth in
the hills whose picks have tapped de-
posits Of extraordinary richness. One
OF the most striking instances Of this
kind-but only one of hundreds
was the story of Tabor of Denver,
who became immensely wealthy over
night from gold strike in the Grip
pie Creek district. He bought a seat
In the United States senate and spent
money like water. He built a mag
nificent theater in Denver, which he
called the Tabor-0r under which
name it is still operated. On the
night of the opening, it is related,
Tabor was entering the theater to the
private box that had been prepared
for him. He had with him a gay
company of men and women-boon
companions.
Suddenly his arm was seized by a
witch-like old woman, who chung to
him while she cursed him shrilly for
leaving his wife-the woman who
had helped him bear the burdens of
poverty-when he became wealthy.
Look there" shrieked the hag,
pointing to the splendid curtain be-
fore the stage, on which was painted
the ruin of an ancient temple, with
the motto beneath:
| 80 pass the works of men;
Back to the Earth again.
| Ancient and Hold Things
| Fade like dream.
Back to the earth again." shrilled
the old woman. "A year from today
you will be dead-in a pauper's
grave"
. Her prophecy was true one. Ia
Dor lost his wealth nearly as fast as
he made it. and within q year died in
poverty. and misery.
Curious Montana Case
The other day a Boston syndicate
took ever the great Silver Dyke prop
erty at Neihart, a deposit of silver
ore 200 feet In width. From It they
expect to make q fortune. But the
two men who prospected the mine
and bonded 1t are both inmates of the
state insane asylum at Warm Springs.
They are Dick Heidenreich and Peter

as a horsewoman and her keen eye
sight and hearing, was appointed a
member of the force of scouts which
each day covered the advance and
the flanks of the wagon train for
signs Of Indians and game. Indians
were encountered on the Big Horn
river but gave no trouble. The man
ner In which the Indians crossed the
river with their families and their
belongings was described by Mrs.
Collins.
Proposes, tents and other belong
ings of the tribes were thrown into
buffalo robes in which holes for
breathing had been cut and the robes
were then drawn taut with buck
skin thongs. Several of the men
mounted their horses. took the ends
of the strings In their mouths and
thus forded the river. Indian squaws
and larger children chung to the sides
of the robe canoes and were drawn
across.
One day Mrs. Collins was cutting
steak from buffalo when she heard
a crash in the bushes and looked up
to see grizzly bear coming toward
her. She jumped into the wagon and
the bear took the meat in his mouth
and proceeded down the river.
In 1874 Mrs. Collins was married
to Nat Collins in Helena. With a
drove of cattle and horses, she and
her husband settled in Teton county
on the Hay Coulee ranch. &c miles
north Of Choteau and still owned by
Mrs. Collins at the time of her death.

ncrs offered, the Ree1er school 1t
Kruger, Montana, was awarded
one. The Reeder school holds its
sessions In . log cabin about so
miles from Br0adus in Powder
River county. Mrs. Hazel Heaton
is the teacher. One Of the 48 pen.
nants offered was won by the
West Holt school At Acton, Of
:, which Miss Ina Guthrie is i'm
charge.
In a letter from Mrs. Heaton re-
garding her school she writes: 1.-THE
Reeder school heads the list Of the
names of the eleven winning teams
Of the National Health Crusade tour
nament.
"There were 10 pupils in the con-
test and after finishing the first Is
weeks they entered upon the second
contest. The second Is weeks show
ed decided improvement as to the
pupils ideals concerning reporting
Their standards AZ to ideals of cheer
fulness and neatness was noticeably
raised" #e
Attendance IL Increased
The school taught by Mrs. Heaton
last year, Turret Butte, Pinto, Mon
tana, also won q banner. It is wor-
thy of note and should afford IN in
centive to all teachers to take time
tor this health crusade work, that
in both schools, Mrs. Heaton reports
50 per cent Of the pupils perfect in
attendance for the entire year. She
attributes this very largely to the
better health Of the pupils, due she
believes mainly to the chores-most
important Of which she names regu.
lar and sufficient sleep. fresh air at
night and the genuine effort made
by the children to avoid the receiving
or spreading OF germs.
A record of height and weight was
kept and the advance from under the
normal to above normal encouraged
the pupils immensely. The breaking
of the coffee habit brought some sub
normal children up to nearly nor
NAL.
Mrs. Heaton feels that our health
is in our own hands; that the rising
generation will consider IL a disgrace
to have poor health and that the in
etilling Of these ideas in the minds
of the children is worth many times
the effort required by the teachers
to carry en- the health crusade.
Opinions Of Children
Miss Guthrie had sixteen children
enrolled in the health crusade con-
test. One child writes: ''Since the
health crusade came to our school
there has been less sickness. Last
winter most every one had some kind
OF sickness, this winter no one was
sick, thanks to the health crusade
Another pupil writes, my parents
said it was the best thing that could
have been got up. 1t got us into one
of the very best habits that human
nature ever knew and hope we will
never be broken of it," Another lit
tie girl writes, "Since the health cru.
SADIE came to our school I have felt
better: have not been sick since
] did the health chores"
The modern health crusade was
planned to interest children in
health. Competition is one of the
best means and the progress OF
knighthood is the basis of competi.
ton. The children respond with en-.
thusiasm to this game of health and
make rapid advancement in both
health and In school work.
