Alden Hewett, 15-year-old pitch CT of the Methodists, has been set ting the church league afre with his spectacular twirling. Last week he shut out the Blue Army with out a hit and last night he ran his string of hitless innings to F when he turned back the South church in order for five frames. He ap- pears to have nothing on the ball. but it is hard to hit solidly and he receives fine support. The pitch ing in the league has been remark ably good this year all around.
 The true Damon and Pythias friendship was never better demon- strated than last night in the wind up of the Boy Scout meet.

Last night in the water boiling event Coates hacked his hand with his axe. AS if in sympathy with his friend, Tallon gave his own hand q cut with his axe less than five minutes later, and the two com pared their wounds in high glee.

Are You a Bull or a Bear on
 1927?

For years business men from coast to coast have looked upon the Curtis publications The Saturday Evening Post, The Ladies' Home Journal and The Country Gentleman-as barom- eters of coming business conditions. Their advertising pages permit a rapid, timely survey of what business is thinking, planning, doing.
 Here is reflected accurately how the keenest minds in the country view the outlook n men who back their opinions with money.
 They hape made it possible for us to enter 1927 With the largest vol- ume of advertising We hape eyer booked for year ahead-m more 0f it or q tWelve month basis more 0f # i1 color.

prophecy of nation holding it's own it is a forecast of further national growth.
 With business becoming more scientific, less haphazard, each year, this increased volume of advertising clinches the position of the Curtis publications as barometers of what business is doing and expecting.
 This advertising is an index of the low inventories of trade, the healthy position of steel, improved railroad efficiency, general employ ment at high wages, and the strong banking situation.
 These facts are heartenin9 to manu- facturer, jobber, retailer and public alike.
 They are evidence of widespread confidence that business is on the threshold of the greatest year yet ex- perienced. SLING COMPANY ADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA so Boston, San Francisco Droit Cleveland

a gist OF the conversation that devel-
oped:
The two labor leaders are here, os-
tensibly for the purpose Of clearing
their names Of the charge of having
placed the official seal Of approval of
organized labor in this state on the
candidacy Of Frank L. Smith, bene-
nciary of approximately s15O,OOO of
Samuel insults money, in return for
material considerations. Walker and
olander are highly indignant that the
public should be given the impression
that they could be guilty OF political
turpitude. Sure, their reasons for
supporting Smith are altruistic. What
Of it II Samuel insult saw. 1T to
finance Smiths campaign? What Of
it If insult and other utility magnates
dumped $250.00O into Smiths cam
paign chest? Can't people do what
they please with their own money?
BAH
We viii leave the labor leaders,
utility magnates and other celebrities
alone for a moment and take a birds
eye view Of the political situation in
the sovereign state of Illinois. Reed
has not arrived yet and there is moth
ing else to do.
Illinois is normally a republican
state" that is, it usually sends repub-
lican senators to Washington and
elects a republican governor. But
Cook county, the most precious jewel
in the state crown, Is parcelled out
between the democrats and republi-
cans. We will get that later.
The present governor, Len Small. Is
at swords points with the national
G. o. P. machine in Illinois. Small is
supported IN Cook county by sec
ton Of the old acknowledgements
Harding group and in the state at
large by his own machine, which, like
all similar machines, is built on the
foundation laid by state patronage.
He has the support of the official
trade union leaders. Thru Frank
Harrington, president of the Illinois
miners, Small's influence is strong in
the coal mining areas. The labor
leaders are permitted to dispense
some of the Small patronage among
their friends and useful Ito the lead
ers) members Of the union. In this
| way a powerful machine is built up
which can laugh the power Of the
ballot to scorn.
Chicago labor leaders who indulge
in the pleasant diversion of adding to
their bankrolls by following certain
lines, such as bootlegging, high-jack-
ing, fury-framing, ETC., find tractable
governor in Springfield a necessity

was decentralization of the strike and
the reduction Of the shop craft unions

MRS. GINA KELLY
Wins DAMAGE SUIT
At Second Trial of Case, Jurors
Decide DR.. r. J. Hathaway
Must Pay

ANACONDA.-Eight thousand dol
lars damages was awarded Mrs. Gina
Kelly of Forsyth from DR.. R. ]. Hath
away, former superintendent of the
state hospital for the insane at Warm
Springs, by a jury in district court
here.
Mrs. Kelly sued for $4,000, claim
ing false Imprisonment in the asylum
and for bodily injuries alleged to have
been suffered when she was operated
upon by Dr.. Hathaway without her
consent.
This was the second trial of the
Kelly-Hathaway suit, the first jury
having returned a verdict awarding
her damages of $27,5OO. On motion
for a new trial this verdict was set
aside by Judge George B. Winston en-
the ground that it was excessive and
the case remanded for a new trial.
In her complaint Mrs. Kelly de-
manded judgment for $4,000 on the
first count, on which the Jury award
ed $4,000, and $4,000 on the second
count, on which the new verdict gives
her $4,000.
It now seems probable that another
motion for a new trial will be filed
citing as grounds the alleged fact that
the jury disregarded the instructions
Of the trial judge in fixing damages
on the first cause Of action.

BUCK Law BRINGS
r E OF DEER
IN HELENA FOREST

HELENA Substantial increases
in the number of deer and elk during
the last year on the Helena National
forest are shown by the annual ami
NAL census taken by forest rangers,
according to Supervisor A. H. Abbott.
There T 2,185 deer, 297 elk and
200 bear in the forest. These figures
show an increase Of 800 deer and 20
elk. The census includes a herd Of
elk ranging at the head Of Deep creek
and Dry creek east Of Townsend in
the Belt mountains, also a nerd Of
elk on the little Blackfoot river, south
of EllistOn.
Some elk have been reported on the
Ten Mile creek drainage above the
city settling ponds, and from there
on south to the divide between Ten
Mile and Cataract basin.
"FOresters attribute this increase
in deer to the enforcement of the
buck law" Mr.. Abbott said. "a large
proportion Of the does observed dur
ing the summer had fawns. While
it must be borne in mind that does
frequently hide their fawns and IN
less one gets close to them it is prac-
tically impossible to tell a barren doe
or M with fawn."
The report shows that 487 coyotes
"a bears, three mountain lions, and
IS bobcats and lynx were killed by
hunters. This included the operation:
Of hunters and those killing preda.
tory animals for the biological sur,
vey, and the activities Of forest serv.
ice men. It is probable, Mr.. Abbott
said, a much larger number Of preda
tory animals were killed that forest
ers did not hear about.
