This important discovery on the
Wide West is Independent of the
known value of the Tiger Poorman
group, and that it has great value
does not admit Of doubt Even at the

reasons stated Will be profitably mined
by the Hecla. to say nothing of the
probability of finding other ore bodies
of which no definite information is nov

.SCOBEY TAKES
ANOTHER GAME

Plentywood Team Loses to Scobey by
One Score.-Many Bum Decisions
Made.
Last Sunday the Plentywood team
met their second defeat at the hands
of the Scobey team by a score of
to 5. The game was very interest
ing, but the game was also featured
by decisions made by the Scobey UNI
pire that We're so rotten they were
good and reminded one of Jud Mat
kins doing his masters bidding.
This was the last game with Scobey
and a good deal of money had been
Wagered on the game and there is
no doubt in the mind of the Plenty
wood fans, but that the local boys
would have brought home the bacon
if the Scobey team had not played
with ten men, the umpire making the
extra player.
With all the bum decisions made
against them Plentywood held the
lead until the eighth when Scobey
forged ahead and the boys wearied of
fighting nine men and an umpire did
not have the necessary pep to pass
them, Scobey winning by one score.
AS result of this game Scobey
won the rubber with Plentywood, TAX
ing two out Of three games played.
