GIFT SAFETY is

Pass in Baseball Game
QY BILLY ENANS)

The gift safety in football threat
ems to become as unpopular as the
intentional pass in baseball,
For years the intentional pass has
been a much discussed feature in
baseball but no one has been able
to remedy the evil.
The gift safety in football is Just
beginning to gain national promi-

the lines of the intentional pass in
baseball.
Safety first literally and otherwise,
was one of the most OvrrwOrkcd

None Of the old-timcrs can recall
a season in which the safety has
been SO prominent in the result OF
many Of the big games.
When the safety play was in

1868, what was in every sense of
the word one OF the best boom camps
of the entire west. There sprang up,
he says, like mushrooms up and

Soon OK and mule trains began to

TN GREAT FALLS there resides a
g~ray-haired old gentleman, now
l. we'll past the ~fOur-scOre mark,
who, continuously for the past fifty
ears, has been editor and publisher
Of the states oldest newspaper, the
first agricultural publication in the
entire Rocky Mountain region, and
the only weekly farm paper published
in the Northwest.
On November Is, 1875, Gust so
years ago., r. n. Sutherlin printed
the first COPY Of the Rocky Mountain
Husbandman at the old mining camp
of Diamond City, N. T. This same
r. N. Sutherlin has just issued his
fiftieth anniversary number Of that
T2Eer which is now being published
in Great Falls.
A firm believer in the agricultural
future OF Montana, Editor Sutherlin
has from the beginning conducted his
newspaper as a farm journal In the
early gold days. as is the common
condition, there we're many disap-

dOubtedly n of the richest placers
ever discovered. For each of the 100
feet Of pay dirt worked, over $780,

process Of sluicing, up to the fall of
1868. Diamond City is at an eleVa-
ton Of $500 feet and contains 225
souls"
Forty-five years ago, in 1889, the
former population which had at n
time been as high as several thOUs-
ands, had dwindled to 81 men, WO-
men and children, and in 1888 the
late Judge Cornelius Hedges. who
had visited the place that summer,
wrote:
Diamond City is desolate. de-
serted and dreary to behold ia the
shreds Of it's departed glory, yet,
those who knew it in the days Of it's
pride, wealth and activity, cannot
fail to recall pleasant associations.
" " . There are only four families
left Of all the many hundreds that
have dwelt there since the glorious
days Of IS. If the goose that laid
the nestful of golden eggs can only
be found in the shape OF a prolific
mother vein Of ~gOld-beari1g quartz
the days of Diamond City's departed
glory may return; otherwise it viii
disappear utterly within another
season."
The Perfect Camp.
Back in the sos Charles M. Rus
sell, Montana's cowboy artist, passed
through Diamond City-then desert
ed except for two or three gray
haired prospectors-and paused
there for half an hour to rebuild in
his imagination, the old camp rs il
had been, and to populate once more
the deserted streets with the pictUr-
esque mountain men, miners, stage
drivers, gamblers, and all the other
types of western frontier hosts that
have passed on forever. Mr.. Russell
states that Diamond City was n or
the most perfect types of the old min
ing camp-even in its s~emi-decay of
that time-that he had ever seen.
Diamond City was in the midst of
it's balmy days when r. n. Sutherlin
arrived there in 1865. Even was il
yet a place of much importance in
1875 when this veteran newspaper
man started the publication in that
camp of the weekly paDer which he
still edits and publishes. Mr.. Suther-
! lin continued the publication Of the
n Husbandman at Diamond City FOL
. several years until he removed it tt
u White Sulphur Springs, where it was
y issued for a quarter Of a century AND
d then moved to Great Falls, where i
s. is still being published by its found
- er, and just now closing the fiftietl
year Of it's existence.

not far from the claim Of the two
men who had been threatened, and
secluded themselves therein. They
spent the day playing cards, not
showing themselves at any time on
the outside of the cabin. At dusk a
dozen of the claim jumpers appeared,
prepared to take possession of the
diggings, which they believed had
been abandoned in accordance with
their orders.
No sooner had the leader Of the
claim jumpers set foot beside the
flUme than a shot rang out from the
cabin and the desperate fell dead.
The followers of the slain man at
once opened up a fusilade Of shots at
