knocked out of the box by the local
sluggers who whanged the ball with
a vengeance.
The regular Bainville pitcher who
took the colored mans place, threw a
very good game, but even ne could
not stop the determined sluggers of
the PlentywcOd players.
1lhe game was much better than
the score would indicate, although the
Plentywood players showed their su-
periority through all stages of the
game and clearly earned their title
to the championship Of Northeastern
Montana.
The Plentywood team had a deficit
caused by lack of support of the local
boys and it is understood the receipts
from this game going to Plentywood
will about clean up the deficit, giving
the boys a clean slate.
This will be the last game of the
season of the major team and many
have said that it will be a long time
before Plentywocd gets together such
3 ball team as the one which PLAYED
together this summer. This remains
to be seen and when the spring comes
around again with its invigorating
waremth and sunshine, no doubt an
other aggregation of ball tossers will
gather together to emulate the facts
Of the che just past.

MOTHER AND -FOUR
CHILDREN DIE IN
MILLINOCkET FIRE

Millinocket, Me-. May 13.-Mrs. John
Bragan and four children, the youngest
three years Of age, were burned 70
death in a IRE which destroyed their
homo here today. The father, John
Bragan, q mill worker, and two sons
were badly burned but escaped imme-
date death when they jumped from up
per windows Of the house. They were
taken to the Bryant hospital. where It
is stated that two Of them are not
likely to live.
The Brasans lived in a two-story
and half house Of four rooms which
was not plastered. but sheathed with
wrapping paper from the mills. The
father arose at o'clock this morning
to prepare to go to his work in the
mills. None of the others had arisen.
Just what happened has not been as
certained as the condition of Mr.. Bra
gan and his two sons at the hospital is
such that they can not be interviewed.
The boys are expected to die. AS
nearly as can be learned, the father
used kerosene to start the kitchen fire.
There was a flash Of fame, the paper
covered walls quickly ignited and in q
moment the entire house was ablaze.
The boys jumped from upper win
dows with what little covering they
had donned af1re. Whether the father
ran upstairs to save his family and
before success was compelled to jump
to save his own life. or whether the
flames spread too rapidly for even this
attempt at rescue, is not known.
Even the age and sex of the children
burned to death, except that the young
est was three years old, must await
such time as one of those in the hos
pital may sufficiently recover TO tell
just what happened.
The family consisted Of the father
John Bragan; two sons, Austin, 10, and
Herbert, IS, who escaped from the
burning house by jumping from the up
per windows and who are in the hos
pital; and the mother and three daugh-
ters, Mabel, Susie and Hazel, and son.
Carl, all of whom persisted. The ages
of the dead children range from six
to IA.
At a late hour tonight 1t was said at
the hospital that Mr.. Bragan probably
would recover while the sons, Austin
and Herbert. were in critical condi-
ton with recovery very doubtful.

Johns, IS years old, a carpenter of
Portland, Oregon, was nominated for
president of the United States at the

Major Martin Will
Probably Return
To United States

vBremmerton, Wash, May 12-(By
A. P.)-Radiograms from. the north
today indicated that Major Frederick
l.. Martin, commander of the around
the-world flight, would return to the
States on the steamer Catherine D.,
leaving Port Moller, Alaska, tomor-
row and arriving at Bellingham,
Wash. in a fortnight.
No word was received today to in
dictate when the three machines I'M
der command of Lieutenant Lowell
II. Smith, would leave Attu Island.
where they arrived Friday from Atka
Island.
The coast guard cutter Raida was
due tonight at Attn. She and the
United States Fisheries boat Elder
will furnish weather reports so the
f1iers will know when it is safe to
make the S7S mile jump to Parama-
shire Island in the kurile Chain at
the north end of Japan.
These vessels were Handicapped by
the limit range of the wireless ap-
paratus of the Elder. However, they
have been receiving aid from COM
mercial vessels in the North Pacific.
1t is thought the Haida might be
able to establish communication with
two American and. one Japanese de-
,stroyer, which at the latest reports
were lowering near Paramassiru.
; Major Martin and Sergeant Har-
vey. his mechanic, it was believed,
would arrive home many days sooner
by boarding the Catherine d. at Port
Moller than by taking the coastguard
cutter Algonquin.
Major Martins airplane has been
abandoned where it hit the noun
tainside in a fog and binding snow,
an hour after she had taken the air
at Chignik, Alaska, in his second
desperate effort to rejoin his COM
mand.

Hold Portland
Woman After Attempt
To Stab Her Husband

Portland. Maine. May 12.-Mrs
Annie Pozin is in the local police
station charged with assault with in
tent to kill her husband, John Pozin,
following her alleged attacks on him
with a long bread knife.
Pozin keeps a small store but does
not live there with his wife. He
says he cannot stand her." He went
to the store tonight, he asserts, and
when he entered he says she started
to stab him with the knife. Pozin
grabbed the knife by the blade and
wrenched it away, being badly cut
on one hand and in his left shoulder
in so doing. While the man, who
weighs about 200 pounds. held his
$50 pound wife at bay. the police
came and arrested her.
The couple had some argument
few days ago and were taken to
the police station where. it is said,
the woman agreed to leave Portland
and go to Boston upon payments of
a considerable sum of money by her
husband.
