MAMIE Ut NOW BEARS; STIRRING SCENES

TTOW Helena received its name
II has never been definitely as
certained. Records show
that it was officially baptized Hell

in the cabin of George ]. Wood,
October 80, 1864, or September "A,
1864.
One account describes the gather

which such mirth-provoking titles
as Pumpkinville, Squashtown,
Tomahawk and Tomah were spg-
gested along with St. Helena
Eventually the choice sirnmered
down to Tomah and St. Helena,
which, the account says, was pro-
posed by John Sommerville, one of
the original discoveries. The com
promise Helena was eventually
adopted.
The account of the naming OF the
city as given by Thomas E. Cooper
of Grafton, North Dakota. follows
Thomas Cowan, from Georgia,
in 1864 had a sluice, and was min

Der "A, 1864, Mr.. Cooper and COM
pany of prospectors and Captain
Wood built a cabin where the
heart of the city now is. A meet

ing district and John Sommerville
was chosen chairman and Thomas
E. Cooper secretary. The ques

here July 20, 1864, when laws and
regulations relative to the rights
and limitations of prospectors were
formulated. The name. appropri-
ately expresses the conclusion
reached by the four original set
settlers who had made unsuccessful
explorations of the surrounding
country.
Attempts to charter the city of
Helena failed in 1868 and execu-
tive approval was not granted until
April 4, 1881, when an election was
held and John Kenna became Ie
first mayor. AT this same election

importance were settled by town
meetings. One such gathering was
held in February, 1867, when the
value of gold dust, which at that
time varied SO much that great
dissatisfaction existed. AS a result
the value of dust known as first
quality mill retort was definitely
fixed at $40 an ounce; Silver Bow
dust, $40, and clean gulch gold dust
free from rock and impurities, $18.
From such meetings sprang the

and several Yellowstone park
rangers, nursing scratches and
bites, are easily as glad that Bonzo
is free as Bonzo is.
Bonzo, captivating ball of blacl
bear fur, was captured by rangers
near the Grand Canyon of the Vel
lowstone some days ago, and he i'm
mediately embarked upon career OF
ferocity which within "a hours earned
him the title of the widest bear cut
ever caught in the park.
He was no more than knee high
to the proverbial grasshopper, but
every inch of him was full of steel
spring and red pepper. Bonza had a
temper. Bonzo had claws; Bonzo
also had teeth. He used them all on
everything human that came within
his reach.
Ordinarily a bear cub becomes
gentle as Mary's little lamb after a
couple of applications of the feeding
good. But not Bonzo. The feeding
bottle he scorned as a device of civil
cation; he rejected the wiles of rhe
rangers and tried with all his might
to bite the hands that fed him.
His favorite stunt was to pretend
a ranger was tree, and climb him.
This entailed considerable damage
to the ranger and his uniform, so
that Bonzo was put upon the end
of a stout chain, and was confined
in the old army guardhouse at Nam
moth Hot Springs.
Here he looked pathetically small
and forlorn, in the middle of a big
room with heavily barred windows.
But GBonzo's temper and manners
continued atrocious; Jail did not
break his spirit.
At LAST the rangers decided to put
Bono in the "baby ZOO" near the
them tried to herd Bonzo into a
wooden box. But he wouldn't herd.
1t was necessary finally to rope
him around his fat middle and derrick
him into the box, he protesting with
all his might at every stage of the
proceeding.
So Bonzo went to the zoo. But
not to stay. The call of the wild
was too much. Bonzo promptly
broke his chain and vamoused. No
body knows where he went. And,
to tell the truth, nobody very much
cares. Some day, years hence, Bonzo

The Youth of England

Hair Pants Become Popular Attire

British Isles.

Hair pants are rapidly becom-

Instead of learning to sing "Rule
Brittaniai" the carefreee lads of

most half the size of the state of
Texas, the headliners of many of the
frontier celebrations of western Am

day thrill that the young folks, at
least, never will forget.
Heretofore, it has always been the
consuming desire of the youth of
England to run away to sea. Since
"Tex" Austin and his brave band
have performed at Wembley, how
ever, all the adventurous lads want
to run away to Texas, or Montana or
Wyoming and be cowboys.
Harassed fathers are being inn
portuned to buy lariats, silver spurs,

coutrements of the cowboy. TEX"

selected at this meeting along with
James Hummel as night watch
man.
The First Justice
The first man to receive com
mission as justice of the peace in
Helena was Esquire Orison Miles
in 1865. Squire Miles used to hold
court in the cabin where he lived,
cooked and slept, and many cele-
brated case of those early booming
times came under his judicial cog
nizance.
The first formal trial under the
squire was over the jumping of a
town lot. Neither the law nor evil
dence was very clear in those days,
and while the magistrate was CROP

giants got together and gave the
property in dispute to the lawyers
who sold it, and divided the pro-
