HELD UP TRAIN SO HE COULD
GET OFF; DRAWS SENTENCE

From two to four years in the state
penitentiary at Deer Lodge vas the
sentence imposed upon John Vallez,
Mexican, by Judge Robert G.
Stong in district court at Billings
when the former pleaded guilty to
charge of carrying concealed
weapons. Vallez held up a freight
train near Lockwood few weeks ago
SO that he might get off.
The Mexican, after having had diff
ficulties with a brakeman, climbed
upon the tender and with levelled re-
volver compelled the engineer to stop
the train. When the Mexican dropped
off, the brakeman, who had become
thooughly convinced that he had met
a bad hombre, rolled off on the other
side of the train and tried to get out
of range of the Mexican, who shot at
him under the cars Vallez was pick
ed up later in Billings by county Of
ficers with gun in his possession
with one cartridge exploded. A charge
of assault in the first degree was also
filed against Vallez, but was dropped
on his offering to plead guilty on the
concealed weapon charge

BRILLIANT YOUNG MON AMA
ARTIST DIES IN PARIS

one of the greatest artists of his day
Last May cablegram was received
in Great Falls stating that he was
critically i'll. Later word came thai
he was recovering, and that he was
making arrangements to return to
Montana. Then, suddenly, last week
came the announcement of his death
from pneumonia.
AS youngster at his home near
Belt he displayed much native talent
in the drawings he made. Secretly
he cherished the desire to receive an
art education, and when his family
learned of this they sent him to Chi
cago, where he made rapid progress.
He went to Paris three years ago and
had just about completed his course
there when his brilliant career was
cut suddenly short.
Arrangements are being made by
his family to have his paintings that
are ON exhibition in France and else
where collected and sent back to
Montana.
His stepfather and his mother, Mr..
and Mrs. Matt Michaelson, live on
their ranch near Geyser. A sister,
Miss May Huotari, also lives near
there. He leaves three brothers, Fred
Huotari, deputy sheriff of Cascade
county; Hans Huotari of Great Falls;
and Ben Huotari of Butte

Not every man has monument
to his memory and achievements
covering 3,348 square miles.
c. w. Cook, of White Sulphur
Springs, Montana, president of the
Society Of Montana Pioneers,
shares that honor with the other
early explorers of the region that
now comprises the Yellowstone
National Park.
Cook, now SO years old, is the
only survivor of the first organic
ed exploring expedition into the
Yellowstone. The Cook-Folsom
expedition entered the park in 1869
when Indians and wild animals
were its only inhabitants. The ex-
petition made the first recorded
circuit of the Grand Canyon of the
Yellowstone, the Yellowstone lake

and the Lower Geyser Basin, places
now known around the world for
their scenic beauty and extraordin-
airy natural phenomena.
The Cook-Folsom party might
have appropriated the desirable
sections of the park area for them
selves and reaped enormous profits
by its private exploitation. Instead
they urged that the region be re-
garded as the heritage of all the
people, and out of that suggestion
grew the proposal for the estab-
lishment of national park first
initiated by Judge Cornelius
Hedges of the Washburn-Langford
which came to the Park
a year later.
The park now stands as per-

To Build Half Mile Track.

A new half mile track is being
built at the Montana State Fair
grounds and harness races will this
year be restored to the program after
six years without them.
1.-THE nearer any contest of speed
on the track is brought to the spec
tators the greater will be the in
terest," said B. T. Moore, secretary of
the fair. "The home stretch will be
the same as that of the old mile
track, before the grand stand, but the
horses will be clearly visible at every
point in the track
A new racing circuit recently or
ganized will make it possible for
owners of horses to take their racers
from Mandan, N D., the last week in
August, successfully to Aberdeen, S.

Billings, to the State Fair at Helena,
September 26 to 80, and then to

careless mockin bird or gull flies too
low over the water he's almost got
insurance that one of them big man
eatin' trouts is goin' up in the air
and get him. Many's the time I've
seen 'em jump so high they'd get
caught in the overhanging branches
of the trees and linger there until
they died O. thirst. The Bullhead
Injuns sojournin' aroun that section
always got their dried fish for the
winter from the ones that got caught

ropin' fish down there the fall of '85,

"It is an i'll wind that does not

Ermatinger. ''As far as Glendive

''Three years ago, fully 80 pei

America. Underlying this field is
over one trillion and two hundred
billion tons of coal, according to
Professional Paper 100-A, issued by
the u. S. Geological survey.

in our vicinity it contains over $500
