Former Senator William A. CLARK
is spending the summer in the lanc
of the great adventure of his youth
He stands pre-eminent among thai
rapidly diminishing band of men who
came to Montana when it was a raw
new land, and made of it, through
the development of its resources, the
great commonwealth that it is today
Sixty years ago he walked into the
wilderness of the northwest, along
side of yoke of oxen, over the al
most trackless prairie and mountain
country from Colorado. Now he is
one of the wealthiest men in the
United States and can ride on his
own railroads or yachts if he SO de-
sires.
His trek into this country was
along in 1863, and he came from
Central City. There, a youth, just
out of Pennsylvania school, he had
his first experience in mining. He
worked as a hard rock miner in one
of the gold quartz mines of that early
day gold camp of Colorado. Came
the news of the rich placer discover
les in Montana. Clark and two others
decided to answer the summons of
fortune. They bought yoke of
oxen and a wagon, equipped it with
the few stores they might need on
the journey, and started out. The
journey was accomplished in about
go days.
A few hours after their arrival in
Bannack the news came to that camp
of the discovery of gold in what was
afterwards known as Jeff Davis
gulch, so named by the ardent seces-
sionist who had discovered it. Clark
yoked up his jaded oxen and started
for the scene of the new strike, ar
irving there in time to secure COW
eted placer claim. A day or two later
the little group of miners who had
secured claims held a meeting, and
the district, so as to pro- |
tect their rights. Clark was elected |
recorder of the district. Books suit
able for record were scarce. A form |
er Iowa hotel keeper, who had |

because it contained the
names of many guests who had not
settled their bills, gave the book to
Clark in which to record entries of
the mining claims. That book, now
part of the Beaverhead county rec
ords, reposes in the vault of the Bea-
county court house at Dill
lon.
When the cold weather came and |
the placer mines could no longer be
worked, Clark had accumulated
few thousand dollars in gold dust,
as the result of his labor at the sluice
boxes. That winter, tobacco became
very scarce in the little gold camps,
and rose to fabulous prices. The
young placer miner put his gold dust
n saddle bags and made horseback
'ide to Boise, Idaho, looking for fin
incial adventure. He found tobacco
plentiful there, purchased two wagon
Dads of it, and freighted it across
he mountains, through an almost

trackless country, to Bannack and
Virginia City. The effort Melted him
over $4,000. That was his start on
the road to fortune, road that he
has travelled most successfully.
Senator Clark was one of the
states most successful bankers and
wholesale merchants, and had his
headquarters at Deer Lodge, when
the quartz properties of Butte first
began to attract attention. His Deer
Lodge bank had advanced consider
able money to finance the first quartz
mill built to treat Butte ores, and
the owner of the mill failing the
Clark bank was forced to take it over
to protect its loan. Senator Clark
went to Butte to manage this mill,
and this gave him an insight to the
real value of Butte ores. He began
to acquire Butte mining property.
He was one of the first men of
substance to appreciate the potential
value of the great Butte ore deposit,
and by backing his judgment with his
with the development of that
camp, became one of the first opera
tors in Montana. Forty years or
more have passed since that distant
day, and Senator Clark, keeping step
with the progress of the times, has
become world figure in finance,
with international interests.
Senator Clark spends much of his
time in New York, where his business
headquarters are, but maintains his
home and official residence in Butte.
He is a devoted member of the So
,iety of Montana Pioneers, and has
made transcontinental trips to attend
he sessions of this organization.

May Be Moonfish

'Piscatorial pedestrian" is the
name that has been applied to a
most uncommon animal-fish caught
recently N the Tongue river by
Jim Sheppard of Miles City, and now
on display in tank in the window
of a cafe. The ching" is new to
Montana, and of species never be-
fore found, it is believed, anywhere
on earth. However, the fact that it
fell for Sheppard's baited hook indi-
Gates that it has no more judgment
than fish, and as it lives in water,
it undoubtedly has piscatorial char
acteristics.
The fish, or animal, or whatever it
is, has four feet, the front one equip
ped with four toes, the hind pedals
being endowed with five. A fin, which
reaches from the base of the head to
the extreme end of the tail, with a
single break or interruption just over
the rear legs, distinguishes it from
any known fish. The head closely re-
sembles that of the we'll known mud
catfish so common in the Tongue and
Yellowstone rivers, but unlike the
cat, the new find has no whiskers and
instead of scales, is covered with
fine down.
Sports Sidecurtains
The "piscatorial pedestrian" is
about six inches in length, and per-
haps one of its notable characteristics
is its gills, ears or side curtains,
which resembles the horns of certain
lizards. These horns are six in num-
Der, three in a row on each side and

in warm water, but when ice is
thrown in occasionally, it become ac-

lin on the under side, extending, from
he hind legs to the tip of the tail. |
In certain points it resembles the Au-
'tralian lungfish, but in others it is
unique.

BRITAIN TORETAIN
 MARITIME RIGHTS
U. s. To Permit Legitimate Alcohol Stores In Return
 For 12-MiIe Agreement

LONDON. Oct. 27.-In connection with the acceptance in principle of Secretary Hughes proposals for a 12-mile limit in the search for con- traband liquor, the British govern ment, it was stated today, desires to make it clear that there is no inten- tion of extending the existing three mile limit governing fisheries ard maritime rights generally.
 The governments adoption of the American suggestion disigned solely to enable United States officials to search for liquor contraband on Bri- tish owned boats within the 12-mile area. In return for this the United States will permit legitimate alcohol stores on passenger steamers, in- tended for consumption on eastward voyages. to come into it's ports under seal.
 The plan of the expert committee of the imperial conference, which has been studying the question, is declared to meet the vital points of the American request without sacri- ficing any of Great Britain's inter ests in foreign territorial waters.
