Hat Hints at Mystery

The only trace discovered of Hadley
Height, aged Waterman at a Northern
Pacific tunnel 10 miles east of Para
disc, who disappeared recently, is his
hat, which was found neal the point
where the speeder he used in his work
was located on a bridge over the Clark
Fork river. The sheriff of Sanders
county and his deputies, aided by
Northern Pacific section foremen, have
searched for several days for the miss
ing man and the river has been
dragged from boats, but without sue
cess. Heights son, also an employe of
the company is continuing the search
of his father.
The conclusion is that the mar was
either thrown from the speeder on the
bridge into the icy waters of the Mis-
souri, or was slugged and thrown in
by persons who robbed him.

KILLS TWO JACKS, WOUNDS
THIRD WITH ONE SHOT

When he killed two full grown jack
rabbits and wounded a third with one
shot from a % caliber rifle, Bert
Chase of Birdtail, near Simms, broke
all hunting records. According to the
ranchman he espied a jack rabbit Sit
ting behind a large boulder near
Crown butte. He fired at the rabbit
and noticed three rabbits had evidently
been struck. Investigation showed he
had killed two of the rabbits and NOR
tally wounded the third which he shot
the second time and killed. Old timers
in the rabbit country claim this as
being the first instance they eve
heard of where three jack rabbits were
together in a daytime shelter.

COUNTY'S REMARKABLE GROWTH
is TOLD BY PRAIRIE BOOSTERS

Eight years ago Prairie county,
Montana, counted 1000 acres of
corn; in 1924 there will be 2 5,O00
acres. Eight years ago the coun-
ty was unorganized; today it has
285 miles of graded trunk high
ways, 80 miles of surfaced roads
and 1870 bridges, all of them built
without a bond issue.
Thus Prairie county boosters an
nounce that their county is on the
map, that it has made remarkable
strides despite h~ardships, and that
its future is bright.
