was poor and the chase was aban'
doned in a few hours.
Frankhauser and Mcdonald eros
sed into Idaho and made for Boomers
Ferry, where they took a room at the
Casey hotel. They spent money free
ly. but no one seemed to suspect
them. During the three days that
they spent in the town they squander-
ed about $500 in Tom Riley's saloon
and some $500 more in other places.
They bought all the champagne in
town and the saloonkeepers wired to
Spokane for fresh consignments by
express. One night while they were
there Frankhauser, who was using
the name of Ed. Smith, gathered to-
gether a party composed of a few
men they had become acquainted
with and half a dozen women from
the redlight district, aud hired Ri
ley's saloon for the night. The doors
were locked and a saturnalia OF
drinking followed. AS much Is 500
worth of champagne was lined up on
the bar at one time. When the oc-
c~upants of the place reached a stage
where they could not drink any more,
they resorted to all kinds of amuse-
ments, such as lining up a long row
of bottles, or arranging them like
tenpins. and then trying their luck
in knocking them down by throwing
bottles.
Frankhauser and Mcdonald repre-
sented themselves as mining men
who had struck it rich. From Bon
ners Ferry they went to Butte dur
ing October, 1907. The city detect
i've of Butte, Charles Bates, testified
that he saw them there in the A. B.
C. saloon on or about October IA. He
was called there because the pair
we're drinking freely, spending money
like water and were inclined to be
quarrelsome. A fist fight took place
and Frankhauser and Mcdonald were
arrested, but were released. They
soon returned to Bonner's Ferry, and
it is believed that during the last
10 days of October they hid $4,000
of the money they had taken from
the train.
Where Was $4,000 Hidden?
Fritz Lange, a miner living near
Silvernite, so or 70 miles from Bon
Ferry, testified at Frankhau-
trial later that the pair came
to his house in the mountains toward
the end of October and spent the
night there. They were travelling
a team and buggy. They said
they were mining men and were go
ing to inspect a mine. They had
plenty of whisky with them They
would not tell what property they
we're going to look over, but early
n the morning after their arrival
hey drove toward S~ilvernite, but

ming along about SO miles an hour
through a heavy rain storm, when
the fireman on the locomotive, Fred
Pearson, looked up from his work of
shoveling coal to find a rifle over
ing him. The man behind the rifle
told him to have the train stopped
about two miles further on. A sec
ond bandit climbed from the tender
into the locomotive and sat down be-
side the engineer, whose name was
Shut, and presently told the latter
to stop the train in a rock cut
through which they were passing.
The surface of the ground around the
cut was very rocky, dotted over with
boulders and pine trees, and sloped
down to the Kootenai river, which
was a couple of hundred yards dis
tant.
The train consisted of the express
car, blind baggage and mail car and
eight coaches. AS 500 as it stopped
the fireman and engineer were order
ed to get off and walk to a telegraph
pole not more than IL feet away,
where the bandits had a cache of dy-
Mantle and firearms.
Frankhauser, who appeared to be
the leader and director of the enter
prise, then fired two shots in the air,
and ordered the engineer and fire
man to walk back TO the mail and
express cars and order the mail clerk
and express messenger out. Their
orders we're to go back into the pas
senger coaches. The mail clerk and
a companion in the coach obeyed the

Do You Want a Boy?

The Montana Children's Home So
ciety is greatly in need of homes for
boys. The eldest boy is fourteen and
is large and strong for his age. The
youngest is a baby weighing five
pounds. There are boys of almost
all ages between. These young
Americans are pleading to be given a
chance. 1t isn't their fault that they
are homeless. They are the type
that will show you that boys are
worth while. Now if you want a
boy in your home, write at once.
There are also several large girls,
but none below eight years. Young
girls are in demand. Not half of the
applications received are filled.
The last year was the most trying
year in the history of the society.
Many children came and the eX-
tremely hard conditions made the
getting of money difficult. Besides,
fewer homes applied for children. If
you consider taking a child your APP
plication is especially needed at this
time. Write the society at Helena.

MONUMENT TO MARK LAST BATTLEFIELD OF
THE INDIAN WARS DN MONTANA is ASKED

AT the request of l.. V. Bogy of
Chinook, Senator Griffin has intro
duced a memorial asking congress
to set aside as a national monument
a tract of 100 acres of ground Is
miles southwest of Chinook on Snake
creek, as the Battle of the Bear
Paws where General Nelson A..
Miles in October, 1877, fought and
captured Chief Joseph and his band
of Nez Perces, in the last big Indian
battle in the northwest.
The large grove where the soldiers
were buried who fell in the battle
lies in the center of the tract, and
the old rifle pits they occupied re-
main untitled. The bodies of the

dead soldiers were later exhumed
and removed to Fort A~ssinniboine.
Subsequently they we're taken to
Fort Custer, where they now lie.
Mr.. Bogy a number of years ago
persuaded the interior department to
withdraw from entry the entire sec
ton, but later the withdrawal was
removed from all but 100 acres.
Chief Joseph started with his In
dian band from Idaho. The first
battle fought was that of the Big
Hole. Then the chase was taken up
first by General Howard and Joseph
a pursued through Yellowstone
National park, through Cooke City
eastward and thence northward. Gen

eral Miles then took up the chase.
When Chief Joseph crossed the
Missouri river he seized all "bull'
boats on the southern side of the
stream, and took them owe with
him, believing that by so doing Miles
would be unable to cross the Mis-
souri, with his troops. 1t happened a
steamer was coming up the river,
however, and Miles stopped it and
used it to transport his soldiers and,
pushing the chase, fell upon the In
dian band on Snake creek.
The battle was named by General
Miles '"The Battle of the Bear Paws"
hence the name sought for the monu-
ment.

when the police chief and another Of
ficer arrested them. On the way to
the police station, according to a pre-
arranged plan with his accomplice,
Frankhauser tripped one of the Off
GERS, broke away and ran. He escap-
ed, as did Mcdonald, the latter being
wounded. He was not captured again
but died later from disease and the
injuries he sustained.
Frankhauser went on to Glendon,
on the Northern Pacific, working as
a cableman for three months, but
was involved in some burglar
les and again arrested. He was
brought back to Montana, where he
was tried in January, 1909, and SEN
fenced to life Imprisonment at Leav-
enworth.

So fidelity and gratitude are not con-
fined 10 the lords of creation.
But there is no reason TO believe
that the beasts of the jungle that
have their hunting laws. or the ants
that lay up their store for winter. or
the bees that know practical geome-
try, or the eagle that mOurns his dead
wife forever. or the hen that protects
her chickens, or the bear that is fear
less of rifles, or the raccoon that is
faithful TO his master, ever asked any
questions about the why and where
fore of things.
On the other hand, from the dawn
OF history. we find man worrying over
the riddle of the universe. This too
in spite of the fact that. even in the
beginning of things he felt that he
would never be able TO solve il.
So he invented language to convey
his questions TO his neighbors and
alphabets TO write them down for his
children. He invented mathematics in
order TO compute the motions of the
stars
BY all his questioning he has sue
ceeded in pushing back the curtain
that hangs around his universe. Yet
he knows perfectly well that i'm spite
of all that his Newtons, Darwins, Elm

bert Spencer called "the unknOwable"
will always elude him.
