but the Belt line held. End runs were
broken up by the Belt ends. Belt lines
men broke through and smothered
/ plays before they were well started.
The quarter ended with the ball in the
center of the field and both teams
gasping for breath. Score st. Mary's
9, Belt 2.
Third qnarter-St. Mary's kicked
off and Belt carried the ball back to
the center of the field. Belt rushed
the ball down the field by short line
plunges with an occasional end run,
lost the ball on downs, recovered it
on tumble A few more plunges, a
successful forward pass caught by
Pohlod and an end run carried the ball
to St. Mary's line where it was pushed
over for a touchdown. Belt then at
tempted a smash through center to
win that extra point, but failed. The
quarter ended with the ball on Belts
27-yard line. Score st. Mary's 6,
Belt 8.
Last quarter-The first few minutes
of the fourth quarter saw Belt carry
the ball to st. Mary's one-foot line,
where they lost it on a line plunge,
st. Mary's line holding with grim
despair ST. Mary's punted out of
danger and for few minutes the ball
swung back and forth until it settled
in st. Mary's hands. The nearness Of
the end of the Qayqa invnired ST.
Mary1s with determination to carry
the ball over for touchdown and the
game. st. Mary's back field worked
beautifully. End run followed end
run, seldom gaining less than five
yards. Belt ends turned the shifty
dodging Walsh into the Belt backs
with interference broken but could not
stop him. Providentially the whistle
blew with the ball on Belts 30-yard
line. Final score St Mary's 6, Belt 8.
Belts line was vastly superior to
st. Mary's Belts back field looked
weak as compared to the visitors st.
Mary's back field ran their plays rap
idly, their interference was mastery
and their broken field running classy.
In one line only did the Belt backs
have it over them and that was at line
plunging, where Spogen, Butts and
pattsner starred. In tackling Belt is
woefully weak. In interference they
have a lot TO learn, although when
Butts carried the ball and Pattsner
and Spogen protected him they often
made good gains. Pattsner at quarter
back ran his team well except on
fourth downs, where evidently the
sanguine temperament Of youth led
him to attempt what veterans consid-'
er impossible.
Our team looks good to us. Ii has
improved so per cent since the Falls
game but we are not blind to it's weak
points. If the coach can get the splen-
lid material Of the backfield TO work
with form, rapidity and precision ON
offense, IL he can make them back up
.hier line with deadly effective tack
ing, If he can develop punter who
IAN be used on occasion, and can CO.
,rdinate the work of ends and backs
hen the Belt team need fear no team
smong the smaller high schools.
Word was received yesterday that
he Teton County High of Choteau
would come to Belt Saturday for
yame with the local team.

After staggering a week from the
blow dealt it by the arrest of its pres
ident, L. B. Lockhart, on a charge of
misappropriation of funds, the State
Bank of Belt closed its doors last
Wednesday evening, and although no
notice of its official closing by the
state banking department was posted
until late Thursday night or early Fri
day morning, the bank failed to open
after Thursdays legal holiday, Colum-
bus day. The notice posted on the
door and signed by H. E. Stewart,
deputy state bank examiner, stated
the reason for the closing as an insult
ficient reserve. s. L. Kleve, assistant
superintendent of the state banking
and E. f. Dawson, cashier
of the bank, appointed as deputy ex-
aminer, are now in charge of its af
fairs.
Mr. KIeve states that no receiver
will be appointed Immediately, and not
until every effort toward the reopen
ing of the bank has been made What
the prospects of this are he does not
state. The bank, he states, was exam
ined last December and was found te
be in very fair condition.
The last statement of the bank, is
sued in response TO the call of Sep
tember Is. shows loans and discounts
of $257, ,980.57, and it is supposed that
the greater amount of the loans are
placed in this vicinity. The deposits
totaled S142.65641, and the borrowed
$110,12220. The cash reserve
was slightly more than required by
law S12,936.61 Both the deposits and
the cash reserve were undoubtedly
lowered to a considerable extent dur
ing the few days the bank remained
apen after Lockhart's arrest though !
no Withdrawals other than those made
in the natural course of business are
said to have been allowed.

CeySerite Talks a
Shot at Husband

Mrs. Warren Porter of Geyser Is o
prisoner at the Judith Basin county
jail at Stanford awaiting the outcome
of gunshot wounds alleged to have
been inflicted upon her husband last
Thursday night at their home in Gey-
ser. Porter was taken to the Deacon
ess hospital in Great Falls, where IL
is said he has good chance Of recov-
ering.
The shooting Of Porter by his wife
occurred shortly after she had re-
turned from a party that was held
Thursday evening at the home of John
Sanders in Geyser. A previous alter
cation between Porter and his wife is
said to have resulted in temporary
estrangement between them and Por-
ter had left home. When Mrs. Porter
returned home and found her husband
in bed another quarrel is said to have
taken place and the shooting followed
Where the pistol was obtained was not
divulged, but Mrs. Porter is said TO
have confessed to the shooting, saying
that she did not believe that the gun
was loaded.
When confronted with the gun, a .38
caliber revolver, Porter threw up his
left hand to guard himself. The bullet
passed through his hand, entered his
chest, lodging in the back.
At the Sanders residence, Louis La
cey and DIR. Leverton were arrested
early Thursday morning by Ray and
Higgins and taken to Stanford and
placed sin the county jail for being
drunk and disorderly and resisting ar
rest. Shots were exchanged inemaking
the arrest, but no one was injured, it
was reported.
Neighbors complained to the author
tiles that the Sanders party was dis
turbing the immediate neighborhood
and the authoritis at Stanford, l8
miles away, were called to suppress
the clamor. The arrests followed.
Shortly after their return to Stan
ford with their two prisoners, the of
ficers were called again TO Geyser TO
the shooting at the Por-
.er residence.

Frank Lewis, Pioneer Citizen, Dead;
Body Sent from California for Burial

Frank Lewis, Sr., aged SO years,
died last Thursday, October IL, at
Vallejo, Cal, where he had been con-
ducting hotel for the past few years.
Mr.. Lewis was a pioneer of this sec
tion and had much to do with the de-
velopment of this part of Montana
and of this city. He held the contract
for the grading of the railroad from
Gerber to Sand Coulee, and also grad
ed the Waller line of the Great
Northern from Conrad to Waller, as
well as having built many of the
bitches of the irrigating system about
Conrad and Waller.
Mr.. Lewis had been i'll for more
than two months previous to his
death. The arrival at Vallejo of his
son, Harvey, caused nervous break
down and month later he suffered
stroke of paralysis. To his son who
was with him he expressed desire
to return to his home here, but his
condition would not allow this. Then
when he realized that his end was near
he requested his son not to make the
fact of his death known, probably
through desire to save his relatives
and friends annoyance. However, the
son wired his mother, who went to
Vallejo, reaching her husbands bed
side couple of weeks before his
death. To her he expressed desire
that his body be brought here for
burial, which was done, the body
reaching here Tuesday afternoon,
accompanied by Mrs. Lewis and
son, Harvey. The funeral SER
vices will be held Sunday after
noon at 2 o'clock at the local Metho-
dist church, the Rev. A. p. Alton of
ficiating. The delay is occasioned by
a desire to locate son of Mr.. Lewis,
Frank, whose whereabouts just at
present are unknown.
Frank Lewis was born in Norwich,
Conn.,, on st. Valentines day, 1853, |
leaving his home when but II years of
age and going to Brooklyn, N. Y,
gaining employment in store and go
ing to night school. He remained in the |
east until 1876, when he made his way
to Bakersfield, Cal, where he herded |
sheep for three years for big outfit
He gained the confidence of his en-
ployers and in 1879 was put in charge
of 10000 head of sheep which were
u diiC0 iiOt iii W Aittttd anu 0iSfOccQl
of. Since that time, for 43 years, he
had been a resident of this section of
Montana, until a few years ago, when
he left here and after couple of
years wandering about the country,
again settled in California, at Vallejo,
where he was conducting a small ho-
tel, and where he was found by his son
Harvey after long and tedious
search carried on without funds.
Disposing of the sheep in Helena,
MIR. Lewis bought $500 sheep on his
own account and for two years ran
them in the Box Elder section, locat-
ing on a squatter's claim. In 1881 he
sold his interests to Samuel Dickey,
with whom he had shortly before be-
come associated, and went to Cora,
a stage line from there to
Barker and Billings. Disposing of this,
IN 1883 he made a trip to Alaska,
where he spent year prospecting and ,,
mining, without any great success,
however. Returning, he located at

Belt High Defeats St. Mary's 8-6;
Teton County High Comes Saturday

The Belt Valley high school team
won its first football game on Satur
day last when they defeated the team
from Sc. Mary's high school of Great
Falls. The game was interesting
throughout The teams were vel
matched and the result was in doubt
until the final whistle of the referee
The st. Mary's boys were a fine ap-
pearing bunch who played the game
every minute and who seemed TO be
improving in effectiveness as the time
of the fourth quarter approached the
end.
First quarter-St. Mary's kicked
off. Belt carried the ball back to the
S0-yard line, where they opened their
attack with a series of line bucks
which carried the ball within few
feet of the st. Mary's goal where it
was lost on downs. st. Mary's punted
but Servoss broke through and blocked
the kick, compelling st. Mary's to
touchbaek, netting Belt two points.
The remainder of the quarter was
spent in see-sawing back and forth up
and down the field, neither side OBJ
tanning any decisive advantage. Score,
st. Mary's 0, Belt 2.
Second quarter-Belt kicked off
St. Mary's carried the ball back to the
25-yard line, then opened up with a
series Of line plunges, forward passes
and end runs, which worked the ball
TO the eenterlef the field Walsh get
away for run around Belts right
end, going outside of bounds and back
again unnoticed by the officials. Pats
ner pulled him down on Belts one
yard line. Another end run carried the
ball over for st. Mary's. They elected
to drop kick for goal but the ball
struck the cross bar and bounced back.
After considerable play Belt carried
the ball to the center Of the field
where 1t was lost on downs. Then
Belts line had a chance to show their
metal for here in the center of the
field was staged the fiercest struggle
Of the game. st. Mary's was fighting

Divorce Complaint
Causes Shooting

Last Friday Mrs. Jeanie Nulliner,
through Attorney Leo c. Graybill,
filed in district court suit for di-
vorce from Harvey Nulliner. In her
complaint Mrs. Nulliner alleges ex-
treme cruelty, asserting that her hus-
band threatened to kill her, that he
had locked her in the cellar at their
home and was otherwise brutally
abusive She sets September %, last,
of being one date upon which he made
threats of killing and asserts that a
loaded revolver was in the house at
the time. She quotes Nulliner of
having threatened:
There's going to be some killing
done, and when I'll kill one I'll kill
another" At another time she claims
that he dragged her down into the
cellar by the neck, injuring her great
ly, and after kicking her, inflicting
serious bruises, he locked her up for
an hour. She also alleges that she
mortgaged her home upon his insist
ence to buy an automobile.
She asks a divorce and the custody
of their two minor children and for
$50 month alimony. 49,
AS a result of the filing of the suit,
NulIiner imbibed too freely Saturday
night in the cup that sets men crazy
and about 3 o'clock Sunday morning
went to his wife's home, into the bed
room where she was sleeping. and
fired several shots from the revolver
which he was carrying as city mar
shal, into the floor. According to the
story told by Mrs. Nulliner, he first
pointed the revolver at her and pulled
the trigger, the shell failing to ex-
pfUde, however. He then lowered the
weapon and fired several shots into
the floor. Deputy Sheriff j. w. Le-i
land was called and locked Nulliner
up. In searching the prisoner the dep
uty failed to find the keys to the jail
carried by the marshal and Sunday
night Nulliner, becoming tired of the
furnished by the Jail,
himself, went to his home
and to bed. Deputy Leland placed
him in Jail again Monday morning and
ater he was taken before Justice of |
he Peace Hackshaw and committed to
he county Jail Yesterday the justice |
liked bonds at 81 900, which up to the /
present have not been put up.
Nulliner has been ordered by the /
district judge to appear in. court a
week from today and show cause why
ie should not pay the alimony de-
handed in his wife's complaint The
rider also restrains him from dispos-
ng of the automobile which his wife
lleges she mortgaged her home to
NV him. Il
