Hint Toward Easy Riding.

Throw out the clutch before going
over a bump in the road. The car
then merely coasts over the mound,
the shock is reduced and the occu-
pants are saved from hitting the roof
Of the car. The shock Is still further
reduced by approaching such OBJ
struction at an angle, thus going
over them one wheel at q time.

BREWERY WILL BE
GIVEN TO OWNERS

Great Falls, June 2S.-The plant of
the Montana Brewing company, val
ued by it's owners at 100000, seized
by the state under a search warrant
June for alleged violation of the pro-
hibition law, will be restored to it's
owners and confiscation proceedings
against it dismissed under ar order
signed by Judge j. B. Leslie Wdenes-
day afternoon. The court held that
testimony introduced at the hearing
which started Monday did not warrant
confiscation.
The order for dismissal was based
principally on the analyses made on
Tuesday night by DR.. Thomas F. Wal
ker on order of the court, because of
the hopeless confusion" Of testimony
as to the alcoholic content of the beer
previously analyzed by DR.. Walker
for the state and introduced as evil
dence at the opening of the hearing.
Six bottles of beer taken from the
brewery by a deputy sheriff in the
presence of witnesses for the state
and the defense, tested less than one
half of one per cent, DR.. Walker tes-
titled on the witness stand, with the
exception of one bottle which contained
.53 per cent alcohol. While this bot
tie represented a techical violation of
the statute, Judge Leslie held that it
was too trivial to warrant the confis-
cation and destruction of the brewery

COL. NOLAN, PIONEER,
LAWYER, DIES IN BUTTE

Colonel C. B. Nolan is dead. Demise
of the eminently known pioneer law
yer of Helena occurred at Murray hos
pital in Butte at 4:25 o'clock Saturday
morning. Probably no public man had
been held in higher esteem in Montana,
and his death has caused universal re-
gret, not only throughout Montana,
but throughout the northwest as well.
Endowed through life with unusual
courage and fortitude, probably no
man ever exhibited more valiant
fight for life than did Colonel Nolan.
The spirit he displayed in the last
few days had so imbued those staunch
friends who surrounded his bedside
that they would not believe that he had
received his final summons. Having
known him through life as success
full defender against earthly foes,
Colonel Nolan will live," was the
hope expressed, even after attending
physicians had announced death was
inevitable.

CONSTABLE KILLS
FARMER AT SAC0
Phillips Couaty Rancher Shot and Kill
led Sunday Evening, while Resist
ing Arrest by Constable Lucht

Elam Threlfall, rancher living
south of Saco, was shot and killed
Sunday evening by Emil Lucht while
resisting arrest. Threlfall, so the
story goes, was working a horse be-
longing to Mr.. Eidel, who lives near
Hinsdale and on Sunday he went to
Threlfall home and after looking the
horse over demanded the animal and
was refused it's possession, being told
that he would have to get an officer
to get the animal.
Mr.. Eidel went to Saco to phone
to Malta, but as Saco has no Sunday
telephone service it was impossible to
get the county officials and Emil
Lucht, who is constable, was sent
for the man and animal. Before Mr..
Lucht arrived at the Threlfall home
he had taken the horse some two hun
dred yards from the house and killed
it and had then left the farm. Lucht
home for the return of the owner and
when he came in about seven o'clock
the constable informed him that he
was under arrest, but Threlfall re-
fused to have it that way and made
the remark that they would take him
dead or not at all. Lucht command
ed him to put up his hands but he
refused to do this and kept trying to
get gun out of his side pocket, walk
ing toward Lucht all the time. When
he was within about ten feet the con-
stable opened fire and shot the man
three times before he fell.
The county attorney and sheriff had
been called by phone and were on the
road to Saco at the tmie Of the shoot
ing and Coroner Tucker was immedi-
ately called and went to the scene of
the trouble where he held an inquest.
At the inquest it came out that the de-
ceased was of a troublesome and
quarrelsome nature and that he had
been arrested once for the theft OF
cattle, also that he had threatened the
life of anyone who was sent to arrest
him. After the killing of the horse
it was learned that he returned to the
house and told his little daughter that
he had killed one of the neighbo1
children and had thrown her body into
the creek. This was soon disproved
as the child was not harmed in the
least and it was thought that his mind
was a little cloudy.
His wife died a few years ago al
Rochester and he was living at home
with his two young daugters and his
housekeeper. The remains were tax.

James M. Burlingame of Great 1,
Falls, candidate for the Republican
for congress in the Sec
ond congressional district, was Wis
itor in Glasgow Wednesday morning
in the interests of his campaign.
Mr.. Burlingame served three terms
in the state senate, representing Cas-
cade county, and during his service
held places upon some of the most i'm
portant committees of the upper leg
islative body Of the state. At the last
session he was chairman of the ju-
dietary committee.
Few men in Montana have taken
more important part in the develop
ment of the state and in it's political
activities. He came to Montana from
Minnesota where he was born at Owa-
tonna, June 6, 1868, and has lived in
the Treasure state since 1890.
In 1900 he served as secretary of
the Republican state central commit
tee. For several years he was men,
Der of the state central committee
from his home county. In 1912 he
was a member of the executive COM
mittee in charge of the campaign.
In 1900 he was appointed deputy
collector of internal revenue and in
1902 he was made register of the
Great Falls land office, a position to
which President Roosevelt reappoint-
ed him. During the time he was in
the land office the business grew until
it was the largest transacted by any
land office in the country. Over A.
900 homestead filings were made in
the fiscal year ending June 80, 1910.
After receiving his grade and high
school training in the town of his ma
tivity Senator Burlingame read law
and was admitted to the bar by a
special commission appointed by the
district court, receiving his certificate
on his twenty first birthday. Later
he attended the University of Mime
sofa and received his bachelor of laws
degree in June, 1880. He came to
Montana the same year.
For some time he successfully fol-
lowed his profession, but it being too
confining, he returned from the law to
form a partnership with w. S. Frary
in the insurance, investment, loan and
real estate business. The firm is now

HINSDALE GARAGE ROBBED

On ,)ast isatgsday night some party
or parties forced an entrance into the
Standard garage through a rear win
dow, broke open the office door and
rifled the safe, obtaining $3.50 in cash.
In some ways the act looks as though
it might have been local talent and
in other ways it does not not. Never
theless, the person that committed the
act knew what he was doing. The
combination was forced from the safe
with chisel and the bolt was driven
back into the safe, thus enabling him
to open the door easily.

OYSTER SEASON OPENS FRIDAY
Report They Will Be Plentiful This
Year Owing To Favorable Weather

ear OWlHB 10 II TdNOFdDle Ntdlner
The oyster season will open Friday,
September /. Examinations by
oystermen of Delaware Bay of the
oyster beds on the shores of this State
and New Jersey indicate that the
bivalves will be plentiful, according to
reports from down the State. Oyster
boat captains say that the weather
has been ideal for growing oysters.
There have been sufficient rains, but
not enough to cover the beds with too
much sediment and the storms have
not been severe enough to wash sand
over the bivalves. The oysters have
had a good growth and are fat and
healthy, it is said. The demand, so
far as can be learned, will equal the
supply at the start, and the season, so
far as the public is concerned, is ex-
pected to open promptly. Oyster
packing houses along the shore are
already preparing to open, but these
probably will not begin operations un-
til the early demand for the city mar
/ kets has been supplied.
