it is an incontrovertible fact that
many citizens who have attained
distinction here in various branches
of industry, commerce and the pro-
fessions were able to point with
pride to the fact that they walked
across the plains, driving a half
dozen yoke of oxen hitched to a
prairie schooner, or sat on the
"near-wheeler' handling the jerk
line on an eight or ten-mule team
engaged in a similar occupation.
1t is not unlikely that some still
live who can remember how Frank
Kenyon, the founder of the first
newspaper in Deer Lodge, would,
when a freight outfit was unload
ing at Dance & Stuart's or John S..
Pembertson's, boast of his ability
to WELD a bullwhip with greater
dexterity than any teamster in the
train, and offer to "set 'em up" for
the crowd if he failed to make good
his boast. Ex-Sheriff Tom Deyer-
mon of Madison county, who estab-
lished the Madisonian in Virginia
City in 1873, also served a term
with Majors, Russell & Waddell
when they had the contract for
transporting the supplies for Gen.
Albert Sidney Johnston's army

Utah to quell the threatened Nor
mon uprising in the latter part of

however, the Colonel achieved dis
tinction as a record breaker, by
hauling from Helena to Fort Ben
ton the largest single cargo of gold
dust ever shipped from Montana.
The amount, according to F. w.
Warner, compiler of a Historical
Directory of Montana" in 1879, was
81, 100000, which is believed to
have been approximately correct.
The greater part of the gold was
from the Montana bar, a short dis
lance above Diamond City on Con-
federate gulch, with some small
lots from various parts of the terri
tory.
A guard of 80 men, all armed
with Henry rifles, escorted the dust
from Diamond City to Helena, and
these were reinforced by the own
ers of the other gold dust, who pro-
ceeded as assistants to pilot the
convoy to Fort Benton. The treas
tire was shipped to St. Louis on
board the steamer Luella, of which
E. w. McNeal, later of Helena, was
the clerk. Colonel Majors went
down the river on the same boat,
and never afterward visited Mon
tana.
An interesting Renaissance of
the old plainsman is that which IL
Illustrates his solicitude for the spir-
itual as we'll as the temporal good

practice of the Colonel was when a
train was starting out to cross the
to visit the outfit at the
last outpost of civilization, and
the cattle were all yoked up
and ready to be attached to the
wagons, deliver the train manifest
and final instructions to the cap
tain, assemble the men on the camp
ground, hold a meeting of prayer,
exhortation and singing of hymns,
and at its close deliver to each at
ache of the TRAIN a substantially

panied with a kindly work of eau

concluding with an admonition to

70 Year Old Man, Paroled, to
 Return to Italy

Cambridge, Mass, Feb. Sold John Bennedetto. who served the last 15 of his 70 years in Marquette peni- tentiary, and who was paroled last June. is going back to Michigan to re- sume service of his sentence of 99 years. Old John was paroled on con- dition that he return to Italy. h. stead, as he explained in broken Eng fish, he came to Boston and found a job when he learned his son had sold the old home and had come 10 Bos- ton. Lately he had lived alone for he and his son became estranged.
 It was 16 years ago when Benne- dettc was supporting his family and was looking for work that he went to mine for d job. The padrone, who hired the labor, said that he must pay for the job. Something happened in the argument that followed and the padrone was killed. And John went to prison for 99 years. Last June he was paroled and found his son in Boston, but the authorities found the old man and the jail gates closed on the stopped figure, a few days ago.
 The officer came from Michigan yesterday and old John is going back to finish his 9s year sentence.

FILIPINO LULLABIES
 GIVING WAY TO JAZZ
Prefer to Adopt What Is Foreign in Contrast to Custom of
 Japanesc

Manila, Feb. s.-Thc tendency of the present generation to initiate for cigners instead of preserving what IS best in local customs was deplored recently by Representative Serafin Hilado. member of the legislature from the province of Occidental Ne- groes. in an address before students Of the University of the Philippines.
 ''In Japan" said Mir. Hilado, the girls, for example. are taught the civilization of the occidental, but the manners and customs Of that country are also taught with a view to pre- serving what is good in them. Fili- pinOs instead Of preserving what is best in the local customs prefer to adopt what is foreign. in contrast to the practice Of the Japanese. No won der that Japan in the short span Of a few years has become one of the lead ing nations of the world.

PHOTOGRAPH REVEALS
 COPPERHEAD'S VALUE
Nugget 42 Inches High and 32 Inches Wide In Possession of Uniycr-
 sity of Michigan

Ann Arbor, Mich, Feb. s.-Ths largest and probably the oldest "cop. perhead" in the world, recently dis. covered by q Houghton county farm. CT. is now in possession of the Univer. sity of Michigan. It Is nugget of
 float" copper weighing 4S3 pounds The nugget Is 42 inches in height, 3a inches wide, and about three inches thick.
 The facial outline of an Indian has been formed along one edge of the nugget. To this likeness some one in the centuries past has added human touch by bending back parts of the edge. In the opinion of Dean Edward IT. kraus, professor of crystallography and mineralogy
 The nugget was obtained by the university at the market price of cop- per. If was believed at the time that it was simply an exceptionally large piece of Float" copper and it was not until it was photographed tha. its full value was learned. In turning the copper to get the best light, the "face" was observed for the first time. In- vestigation showed the hammered down edges.
 Dean Kraus hesitates to estimate the approximate date of the haih- mering because of the excessive oxi- dization. Especial interest is attached to the piece of copper itself, Dean kraus said, because it shows the ef- feet of the wearing of glacial stones. Long scratches across the surface in- dlcate to the mineralogist the passage over the nugget of pebbles embedded in glacial ice.

CHARGE OF
LUVACY
Chic Harley Declares Friends
Invoked Force to Put
Him Away

CHICAGO, Nov. 21.-Charles
Chic Harley, once star football
player Of Ohio State University, has
retained counsel, who announced
they would appear in probate court
in Columbus. Ohio. Monday to ask
that a lunacy finding against Har-
ley be set aside.
His attorneys say Harley never
was present at any such proceedings
and never was examined by two
physicians and found insane. as the
court records at Columbus show.
Harley charged that without any.
lunaoy hearing at which he was
present, on December q, 1922, he en-
tered an automobile with WilliantF
Havens, member Of a wealthy
Columbus family. to whose sister,
since married, Harley then wass at
tentive, for the supposed purpose
Of going to an athletic party. In
stead, he said, he decided to go to
his room and was accompanied by
Ravens and Frank (Tee) Young, at
present captain OF the Ohio State
football team, and another man,
who proved to be deputy sheriff.
At his room the officer produced a
paper purporting to commit Harley
to an insane hospital. Harley said
he at first refused to go, but finally
was taken by the deputy sheriff TO
the institution that night.
Finally Walked Home.
According to his attorney. Harley
remained at the institution from
December Q until December "a, when
he walked out and returned home to
Chicago. He never has returned
there, the attorney said, yet the in
stitution records show he returned
January 10 and was discharged jan
uary %. The attorney also said the
original proceedings showed John

fered nervous breakdown prior to

that there was no justification for
