home but she was urged to take
up war relief work in Albania and
practically half of her four years
overseas was spent in that inter
esting section of western Europe.
Across the Black Sea to Constan-
tinople and the Danube trip to
Albania, the war workers saw
much of that little known country.
Their first work in Albania was
the distribution of Red Cross sup
plies, clothing to the Mountain
tribes.
In Albania the last year of her
stay, Miss McLam was the direct
ress of elementary school for boys
and girls, the first co-educational
school on Albania and her sister,
Miss Olive McLam was the ma
tron of a technical school in which
were enrolled 60 boys. There were
$50 children in the elementary
school, thirsty for knowledge and
usually receptive. Speaking of the
Albanians, Miss McLam said there
were no people more jealous, more
anxious to advance and none who
came to the Red Cross workers
SO filled with desire for what they
could to learn rather than for
what they could get in a material
way.
The first years of her stay in
Europe Miss Nolan was engaged
largely as hospital hut worker
and Red Cross searcher and her
friends WI. be interested to know
that she had charge of a building
the hospital hut in Tours. In
1920, two years after going across
she was Joined by her sister, Miss
Olive McLam, who also did an i'm
portant work for the Red Cross.
Miss Olive Nolan was to have
assisted in Tuesday nights pro-
gram but was taken suddenly Ill
on Friday and taken to Brightlook
for an operation.
Miss McLam concluded her
address by presenting a charming
Corsican whose costume of rich
oriental embroidery touched a
foreign note but whose pose and
bow were very American.
The slides shown in connection
with the address supplemented the
descriptions of the country it's
people and customs and completed
a program of unusual interest. The
lantern was operated by Miss
Margaret Shields. Preceding Miss
McLam's address, three pleasing
vocal numbers were given by Ern-
est Skinner of Passumpsic with
piano accompaniment by Miss
Lola French.
Not the least interesting feature
of the evenings program was the
very happy Introduction of the

In some towns the listers are not
the most popular members of the
community after turning in their
quadrennial appraisal. In one town
a member of the board started on
a western trip, reporting 1900
miles in ten days, indicating the
measure of his desire to put a
long distance between himself and
the town where he had served.

The Sunday Schools have the chill
dren but few moments and often
the youngsters are so uproarous
that nothing can be done with
them. The Young people must get
their conceptions of basic morality

of the home as the instrument by

School Of Mines Wen Filled

School Of Mines Well Filled
A registration that surpasses that
of last year on the second day Of the
term was recorded at the school Of
mines, at Butte. At closing time Q
total of 10 students had registered
for the 1929 term.
Practically all Of the new arrivals
were freshmen. At the present time
the different classes are divided %
follows: Seniors. Is: juniors, Is:
sophomores, II; freshmen, ~. and
specials. ~.
Not only is the senior class the
largest ever registered at the Mines
school, but the freshman class is also
one of the largest on record. It was
predicted by faculty members that
no less than a score and q halt Of
students, who have been detained out
Of the city, will arrive within the
next two weeks.
Last year the registration for the
term was 1876 and It has been esti-
mated that this years enrolment will
exceed that of a year ago. However,
this fact can not definitely be deter
mined for at least another two weeks.

many hundred feet in the ascent OF
~ miles; but the old Slade trail,
which has little signs left to mark
its existence, lies along the south
side Of the big hollow, known q
"Louier" gulch. and il passing over
the divide from old "Louier," We
drop into Slade gulch, and winding
down the slope one comes to the his
toric, unkempt and decaying relic al
days gone blythe old Toll houSe.
1.-THE haunted house" It was once
called by the settlers in that local
ity, and the tale goes that occasion
ally the ghost Of the old-ttme des-
perado, who paid the penalty Of his
alleged crimes on an improvised gal
lows in the old stone quarry nigh
50 years ago on a memorable day In
Virginia City, makes its appearance,
and this hallucination has an uude-
sirable effect.
Ghostly Highway Now
The Slade cabin was used for many
years by the new owners who built
the road up the mountainside in the
early '70s at heavy expense. At
one time this was the only outlet
from Virginia City to Bozeman ana
was much used, but today 1t 10 like
the haunted cabin with a feeling any
thing but pleasant, as we pass, and
cape with fear that the ghost of Slade
will appear.
OF course, there is always reason
for ghost stories, and SHADES is NO
exception. The imagination gets be-
yond control, and 1t has been told
by travellers who went thereby after
nightfall, that they heard the gallop-
ing of fast flying hoofs and out Of
the inky darkness appeared the form
of q woman riding her faithful
charger, which was covered with la
Their and bending every energy to
make the grade toward the death
scene of her lover: and while the hair
is on end and the goose-flesh creeps
up the spine one hears the deep
moaning of woman in the distance,
mourning her departed soul-mate;
and while thus entranced the specta-
cular view Of two spirits returns
within the moment. and 10, one be-
holds the graceful form Of Mrs. Slade
and her husband, mounted ON their
true and faithful thoroughbreds, re-
turning. She riding in the rear, and
the stiffness Of the night is broken
only by her wailing sobs. Her loyal
knight and true, stern and cold-faced
in the lead, now sightless, neither
looking to the right nor to the left,
mounted on his faithful steed-true
to its misunderstanding to the trail,
and one views the vivid. flaming red
line which encircles SHADES neck and
tells the story to all the world Of
the cruel death he met on that rude
gallows frame in the old stone quarry

Chief Justice Brantly of the Mon
tana supreme court died last week at
Missoula after a lingering illness.
Judge Brantly had been in i'll
health for some time and recently re-
tired. He refused to be candidate
for reelection last summer, feeling
himself unequal to the strain. His
term would have expired January /,
next. He was a republican.

the open rather than spend q night
at the old cabin.
Several years passed, and one cold
dismal night . miner left Virginia
City for . quarts mine that he was
working about 81 miles north Of the
old toll house. He was urged by his
friends not to attempt the trip, but
being just drunk enough, and with
. quart bottle In his pocket, he told
them that he had to report for work
in the morning."
This was the last seen Of him until
he was found In the spring, after the
heavy snow had melted. not far away
from the Slade cabin; with that look
Of horror on his face that only comes
from fright, and the empty flask by
his side. Lost his way In the blind
Ing storm and met the spirit-o1
Slade.
This was during one Of the coolest
winters on record in those parts, and
the snow was deep all over the coun.
try. Coyotes drank from the water
ing trough on Main street, and deer
and elk were caught with ropes by
men on foot within half q mile OF
Virginia City.
Range Rider Scared Out
A young, raw-boned range rider
who was working for the largest
horse outfit in the territory at that
time, had occasion one cold and
bleak winters day to stop at the old
Slade cabin at night, after working
all day trying to relieve a snowbound
bunch Of starving horses. He started
for home some IL or Is miles south
and when he and his pony had broken
snow for miles, he landed at the old
toll house, and, his horses faded, he
had to 60 into camp. Covering the
animal with the saddle blanket and
putting 1t in the old barn, he went
to the cabin for shelter; tearing ur
part Of what was left of the floor

Just how long was hard to tell, when
something disturbed him and he sal

the Pickering shadows cast by thu
dying embers, he saw the bearded
form Of Slade-although Slade had
been dead before the cowpuncher wal

the image had read his thoughts, II
said: you're right, sonny, what an

the image retreated through the open
door and was gone.

he thought it best to move out. Jus,

on the hill near Virginia City nearly
60 years ago, when after the BRIEF
est of trials he was sentenced to
death by the vigilantes.
Too Late for Rescue
The cause Of this peculiar phan-
tom is attributed to the day OF SHADES
trial, when one Of his best pals rode
up the big hollow and to the home
and warned Mrs. Slade Of the hap
penings. She Immediately mounted
her pony and tore the earth In her
mad race over the range to the min
ing town; but. alas. she arrived too
late. Her path led past the old quar-
ry, and she saw the crowd; riding
up to within few feet Of the body
which was suspended by q rope, she
pulled her gun and several the cord
the first shot, but life had left the
body Of her husband and the spirit
was already on its way over the div
ide.
Broken-hearted, as only q woman
can be. she took the riderless pony,
and weeping the sorrow of unredeem-
able hope, she slowly wended her
way back over the trial to the old
dollhouse and home.
Unable to overcome this terrible
strain, she soon gave up possession
there. and the last time Mrs. Slade
was seen at the old placer camp was
when she mounted the old Overland
stage and started on her journey to
Salt Lake.
Do you wonder that this spectacle

and that the road is deserted after
nightfall? have come over that
trail in the dark of the night and I
want to whisper 1t to you gently, it
Is no dream. You get the most pc
culiar feeling az soon as you pass the
old stone shack.
1t was some years after the death
of Mr.. Slade when the spirits made
their first visit in the canyon. Fam
lilies had lived there and there never
seemed to be an uncanny object to
disturb their peace. They provided
food and shelter for the traveller who
was forced to stop overnight.
After the franchise Of the new
owners expired and it was no longer
worth while to keep q toll-gate or
travellers inn, the place was aban-
doned and left to the bats and rattle
snakes, and the vandals on passing
shy a stone toward the windows.

there and ran quite a band on the

at the old dollhouse. Horse thieves
had been making q rendezvous there
throughout the winter and had con-
cealed themselves and saddle horses
in the enlarged cellar beneath the
cabin, and as the thieves had made
