Ordinarily 1t is a good rule to
fair catch unusually difficult punts-
such as short high balls and high wet
balls. When the score is even, or
your team is ahead. fair catch
should be made of all punts inside
the opponents forty yard line. with
the idea of picking up three points
by a placement kick. Good catchcrs
should always be permitted to break
these rules when they know there is
a chance of good run back. Poor
catchers have a tendency to make
fair catches of many punts that
should be run back. A player should
be broken of such tendency because
it lowers the morale of his team and
loses yardage.

FORTUNE AWAITS
SON OF MONTANAN
SEVEN MILLIONS ESTIMATED
VALUE OF HERITAGE PHIL
IPPINE HALF CASTE.
Father Went TO Islands as Soldier of
Montana Volunteers; Married and
Died There; Meantime Oil Struck
on His Land.

Press dispatches to the effect that
Gregario Velasquez Carmichael, IL,
heir to a $7,00O,000 estate in Okla
homa, had been located in an inland
village in the Philippine islands, has
served to revive memories in the
minds of several Spanish-American
war veterans in Butte.
| Gregario Velasquez Carmichael is
the son of Dugal Carmichael, who
died several years ago in the Philip
pines, unaware that the barren lands
he had inherited in Oklahoma years
before bore vast oil deposits.
Dugal Carmichael, at the outbreak
of the Spanish-American war, volun-
teered his services. Thus it was that
Butte men came to know him, for he
enlisted from Butte as a member of
company F, First Montana volun-
teers.
He went to the Philippines weber
he Ibid his bit" At the close of the
trouble, like many another venture
some soldier, he had come to love
the land of palms and decided to
stay on the islands. So it was he
married a native woman and reared
a family.
Unknown to him, the land back in
Oklahoma, which he had thought
worthless, proved to be a veritable
store of wealth. Oil was discovered
on his place. His land was worth
millions of dollars. Then started the
task of locating the owner-if not
him, then his heirs.
His record as a soldier was looked
up. 1t was learned he had enlisted in
the Montana volunteers. In an effort
to secure some trace of him, the at
torneys in charge of the quest re-
Gently communicated with w. r. Van
Orden, detective on the Butte police
force and also one of the heads of
the United Spanish War Veterans of
Butte.
Mr.. Van Orden, as did many of
the other veterans from Butte, re-
the man, but could give
no information regarding his where
abouts. All they knew was that he
had received his discharge in the
and had married a native
woman.
Among the former members of
F, First Montana volun-
teers, in Butte, who recalled Mr..
was Frank Otis, now
living at zoos Phillips avenue. Like
other members of the company, Mr..
Otis knew nothing of Carmichaels
past The first time they became ac-
Iuainted with the man was when he
enlisted and became a member of
company F.
None of the other members of the
company in Butte knew where he
,ame from. 1t was the opinion of
dr. Otis, however, that Carmichael
anne to Butte for the express pur-
,ose of enlisting and had not worked
n the city previous to that time.
The search, however, was kept up
With the result that the young son
vas located in an inland village in

tances are accustomed.

pany had a plant at Baltimore.
They sent a representative to Butte
with the result that smelter site
was obtained in 1879. DAILY had
raised the output of the Anaconda
to 500 tons day. He had erected
a smelter-the Upper Works in
Anaconda. The plant was becom-
ing too small for the mine output
and the Lower Works followed in
1889. Meanwhile he had built the
B. A. and P. railroad from Butte
to Anaconda, added to his mineral
holdings, acquired ranch property,
built irrigating bitches, encouraged
stock raising, bred fast horses, es-
tablished a newspaper, founded
banks, plated townsites, and found
time and inclination to assist his
less fortunate friends in their strug-
gle for a recompense.
In 1899 the Amalgamated was
formed by consolidation of the
company, the Parrot,
Trenton, Butte and Boston, and the
Boston and Montana companies.
The Amalgamated also purchased
to control of the Washoe Smelling
company and the Colorado Mining
and Smelling company.
DAILY and his associates, it was
announced, had disposed of their
entire interest in Butte mines and
The Anaconda smelter to the new
company. But the name and the /
influence of Marcus DAILY was too
valuable an asset to be parted with
lightly. He was induced to remain

Haggin, Days Friend
Harry Gallwey, who enjoyed the
friendship and the confidence of
Marcus DAILY from boyhood days in
the Comstock region, once related
a story as told him by DAILY in con-
nection with Haggin's loyal sup
port.
The Anaconda company had
been wrestling with the problem
of smelling copper. A plant was
erected and found wanting. Copper
smelling SO far as refractory ores
were concerned, was new industry
Experiments were expensive.
At a meeting of the stockholders
the matter of further expenditures
was discussed. Tevis urged a stock
assessment. DAILY protested that
his funds were exhausted and he
could not meet stock levy. Tevis
replied that in such case the only
would be to sell DAILY
out.
Haggin, who had sat silent, in
terrupted. He drew check book
before him and began busily to
sign the checks in blank. When
ne had signed all of them he tossed
he checkbook to Daily with the

In 1881 the Anaconda Silver
Mining company, as it was then

reated 5000 tons of oxidized silver

The suicide of Capt Johnson, of the ill-fated kennecott, was a distinct blow to his many friends in Alaska
 many of whom have known and re spected the aged mariner for guar ter of century. While the loss of the vessel was undoubtedly an error of Judgment, caused by fog and cross tides, it was one that any man was liable to make under the same condi- tions, and which could have been lived down. Those who go down to the sea in ships, especially in Alaskan waters, are liable to wreck their yes sels at any time, the coast being prac- tically unsurveyed and lights few and far between. Had there been a fog station at York cape and other ex- tremities of the Queen Charlotte group the accident would not have happened. A brave mariner, a warm friend and faithful and conscientious officer has gone to death; may his next landfall be better safeguarded.

New Jersey is wet state which has been suffering from a serious drouth. Therefore all factories and stores closed Sunday and the peo- pie assembled and prayed for rain. The trouble was that too many quit work to pray, and bowling rainstorm nearly washed the state out of exis tence. The next time the number del egated to pray will be gauged by the amount of rainfall desired. Here ill Seward, where probably one man in fifty could accurately repeat the Lords prayer, we have had six weeks rain and everything washed out. A little more prayer in Seward and a little less in New Jersey would have struck happy medium.

When you consider conditions in Europe, with anarchy, communism and their destruction of life and property the evils that confront the United States are small indeed. We have plenty of food unlimited resources to produce more, and no man need worry over the future so long as his health and ambition holds out. Here in the Territory of Alaska we are doubly for tunate. No man need go hungry who can scrape enough powder and lead together to kill ptarmigan, or bailing wire to trap rabbits. The valleys are full of wood, and the latchstring is al- ways out. Our officers are good shots and our citizens can walk the streets knowing they will not get hit by stray bullet. or run over by speed maniac.

 The natives have moved back to the village but the beach is 15 feet nearer the orphanage than before the storm, the water undermining the banks. Old residents say this is the worst storn, ever seen in this district.

How old is Ann, how to control the

How old is Ann, how to control the glacier stream and the policy of the government in regard to Alaskan de- Yelopment, are things that no man can tell The first does not particu- larly matter; the second is a matter of money, while the third can either make or break Alaska If the differ ent bureaus will consolidate and allow one board to govern Alaska, with a number of Alaskans on the board, we may develop into a large, self-support- ing Territory. But so sure as the present policy of footing our resources is continued, without a reasonable Quid pro quo attached thereto, Alaska is doomed to resemble Goldsmith's deserted village. Somehom it appears to us as if the outside corporations in control of Alaska want to run all the people out, so as to have unmolested opportunities for robbery on a large scale.
