THOMAS GOOD OF
WASHOE PASSES
AWAY WEDNESDAY

Thomas Good, well known and high
~ esteemed citizen of Washoe, passed
away at the family home last evening
at five twenty o'clock. Death cam,
after a long illness, covering a periot
OF eighteen months, of pernicious ane
mia, having been taken i'll year agC
last Christmas day. His position wa,
that OF Superintendent of the Washot
mines of the Anaconda Copper Com
pany.
Thomas Good was born in Burgid
die, Scotland on April 7, 1864 and was
at the time of his death past sixty-twc
years of age. At the age of clever
years he went to work in the Goa
mines of Scotland, pushing small cars
at which he worked for four years
In 1879 he left Scotland with his par
ents, coming to America, where the
family settled in Lycumming county,
pennsylvania. Until he became a
young man his work was in the coal
mines in and around McIntire, Penn
sylvania and at the age of nineteen
he was married to Miss Katie Hender-
son. Two boys, Archie and Willie.
were born to this union In 1883 his
wife died and following her six
months later, their son Willie.
In 1891 Mr.. Good was married to
Miss Henrietta Gillespie, and shortly
after his second marriage the death
of Archie occurred. At this time he
was living in Colorado, but later
moved his family consisting of his
wife and two daughters to Belt, Mon
tana. After working in the coal mines
OF the Anaconda Copper Company in
and around Belt, Mr.. Good came To
Washoe and was made Superintendent
OF the mines owned by this Company,
which position he held up until the
time of his death.
Three girls and boy were born to
this union, all of whom survive him,
except Henrietta, who died at the age
OF twenty-five years during the flu
epidemic several years ago. Besides
his wife, Henrietta, the surviving rel
atlves are his daughters, Mrs. Darrell
Vail and Mrs. Clarence Pfel, of Great

of the Methodist Church, in honor Oh
the Commission. After luncheon, Mr.
o. S. Worden gave very interesting
and instructive talk on the Gasoline
Tax Bill which is just being initiated
Mr.. Worden pointed out in very
clear way what it meant to Montana
and particularly to Carbon county to
carry this Gasoline Measure at the
general election in November. He
stated that Carbon county has now on
the Seven Percent System ffty-two
miles of which sixteen miles is con-
structed and leaves thirty-six miles to
be constructed. This would all be fin
ished with Federal Aid Funds and
state funds without any expense to
Carbon county. In addition to this the
bill provides that the road from Rock
vale to Red Lodge is to be constructed
without any expense to Carbon county.
lie stated that the revenue received
from the present Gasoline Tax
amounts to about S5,00000 a year to
the county, estimating that it would
increase, and that in period of ten
years, under the present law, Carbon
county would receive about 100000.
The roads that would be built, should
the law pass would cost for construc-
ton and maintenance approximately
$544,000.00. Estimating, under the
present law that the county would re-
ceive $75,000.00 in a period of ten
years, Carbon county would benefit by
the passage of the law to the extent of
$469,000.00. Mr.. Worden explained
that unless this Bill passes, Montana
will not be able to match any more
Federal Aid. He also explained the
provisions of the bill which provides
that not to exceed eight percent of the
revenue received could be expended
for engineering and administration.
His talk was we'll received by the
club, and at the conclusion of the
luncheon and Mr.. Worden's talk the
County Commissioners, and Highway
Commissioners accompanied by Of
ficers of the Beartooth Boosters Club
viewed the road from Red Lodge to
Bearcreek. Part Of this road was built
under Federal Aid several years ago.

belonged to a band once-was
member of it three weeks-and there
fore know sveral of the instruments
besides the drum by their first names.
We practised in hay loft, where we
kept our equipment secreted to keep
the police from getting it, and did
most of our best work by moonlight.
Our music wasn't appreciated, how
ever, as it should have been People
in the neighborhood wanted to sleep
and the musical education of most of
them had been sadly neglected and
thus they were unable to appreciate
good music. In fact they didn't want
1t at all, SO we just bootlegged it to
them and made 'em like it.
OF course we couldn't head the notes
easily and therefore inaugurated
the touch system, later adopted by
typewriter operators My assignment
was an alto horn geared in B. Flat.
1t was not an uncomon thing when one
reached a high note to have mouse
run out of the broadcaster and there
fore it was dangerous to take breath
without first unscrewing ones mouth
from the receiver, or whatever you call
it. The community finally surrendered
and bought US off and we quit and left
the field to Sousa.
Music is the wine of the soul. It is
the exhiliration of the palace and the
Joy of the humblest home; it sparkles
and glows in the banquet hall; it
cheers the soldier on the field of bat
tie; it is the inspiration of the church.
Yes, music is more than all that. 1t
IS the child of prayer, the companion
IF religion and the medicine of break
ing hearts.
So here's to the members of the Red
Lodge Municipal Band and the con-
,erts they are giving. And-Let's
cheer them occasionally when they
a number so that they may
know that we hear and appreciate.

LARGE CROWDS W.T.
NESS OPENING OF
YELLOWSTONE PARK

For the ffty-fourth time the gates
of Yellowstone National Park swane
open last Sunday, officially to admit
travellers for the new season. In spite
OF the fact that Sunday marked the
Official opening, it is estimated that
more than 1900 guests were already
enjoying the hospitality of the Park
authorities, comprising what is de-
clared to be the most suspicious of
early season travel ever enjoyed in the
history.
Notwithstanding that snow and
rain came on Saturday and Sunday,
hundreds of people assembled at the
great archway to listen to the exer-
clses which commenced at 1890, i'm
mediately after the arrival of the
special train.
Stephen T. Mather, Director of all
of the National Parks, made the prin-
cipal talk. Horace NJ. Albright, super
intendent of Yellowstone Park, made
a short talk and introduced Mr.. Vern-
on Goodwin, president of the camps
company, who acted as presiding Of
ficer.
The Northern Pacific Girls Sextette
rendered several selections, which
were enjoyed by the crowd, and the
Helena High School band which was
returning from Denver stopped off
and furnished the music for the occa-
sion. On the platform was seated
Superintendent Horace M. Albright,
Hon. Stephen T. Mather, A. B. Smith
OF the Northern Pacific Railway,
Harry W. Childs, President of the yell
lowstone Park Hotels Company, O. H.
T. Shelley, Secretary of Beartooth
Boosters Club of Red Lodge, and
other notables.
Mr. Mather in his address empha-
sized the protection of the wild ami
mails in the park and the elimination
of anything commercial in connection
with the management, saying that the
park was to be playground for all of
the people of the United States and
their guests from foreign lands, and
it's pleasures were within reach of all.

The Bachelor

The Bachelor
June with its sunlit days and nights
serene, its budding flowers and balmy
air and birdsong is almost gone. It is
a romantic month, adapted to the pro-
duction of June brides and honey
moons and love and such. The wonder
is that at its close there is single
bachelor left in the world. But there
is. One of 'em lives out west of town
on Butcher Creek according to recent
statistics.
Being a bachelor is a habit; the
longer INDUCED in, the harder to quit.
One can hardly realize that in our
midst are those who can sit by the side
of martial bliss for years and not have
nerve enough to put their arm around
it and press it to their bosom.
One of the attendant misfortunes of
bachlor is observation-disclosures. They
say that that one out yonder went to
Luther last winter and bought a pair
of gloves, and that when he got home
he threw them in the fire and spit on
the bed.
Of course, when one gets a wife he
always gets mother-in-law to boot
No man can succeed in life without a
mother-in-law. Adam tried it and
made mistakes as he had no one to
Grub him. If she had been there the
forbidden fruit would not have been
eaten. All the world would be Par
adise now, flowing with milk and
honey and peopled only by hard boiled
republicans; Satan would have kept
his distance; the women would still be
dressing in sunshine and the men
would be-clad only in climate.
Speaking of mother-in-laws, be it
said that the tender solicitude every
married man exercises toward them is
almost beyond comprehension. One
Fourth of July not long ago a crowd
of boys dragged cannon down to the
river and begun to celebrate the ami
versary of the Declaration of Indepen-
dence by firing across the stream. A
man came running with his hat off and
his hair floating in the air, shouting at
tn top of his voice: "Stop shooting,
boys; for the Lords sake stop shoot
ing" "Why do you wish us to stop
shooting, asked the boys; and with
voice trembling with fear he shouted
to them: "My mother-in-law got
drowned there yesterday and I'm
afraid you'll raise herr.
