MOMTAMA'S FIRST PRIZEFNGHT
IM 1864 WAS FIERCE CONTEST

Instruments in 1873, nearly ten years
after that Of Virginia City was "enliven-

After all a prize fight. however objec-

more decent and less dangerous han the
tournaments in which chivalry engaged.
Broker bones figured largely in these
jousts n loss of life was not infre-

be present, and it is doubtful whether
those danes of high degree would have
exerted their influence to stay strife, as
did the Virginia City miners at the Con

Even the lengthy details which fill
the front page Of the Post, do not prove
the encounter to a v been exception

town or its vicinity, when men, crazed
by liquor, fought to kill. We read in
Vigilante days of cold-blooded murders
occurring in the presence OF witnesses
who do not care or do not dare to inter

should turn out to see a prize fight does
not indicate that it had a low moral
standard. 1t craved excitement and
escape from the everyday routine.

to operate three full Office shifts and

The board told the sheriff the order

jailer on duty at the county Jail is the

he and Undershertf Angus Mcleod would
always respond to any call regardless Of

obliged to work more than eight hours

This is the first time in the history Of

COntending that the expense of con-
domination proceedings and payment
of the damage lone to land, in Secur-
ing a right-Of-Way over private prop
erty, is up to the state where mann
rOads or federal aid highways are III
vOlved, James McMasters,
of BrOadWater county, in resisting the
application of h county commission
erS for appraisers in the dispute, may
upset the usual procedure OF the state
highway commission which has hereto
fore required counties to stand ne
expense.
The point was brought up in a hear
ing held at Townsend before Judge VIII
liam Ford Of White Sulphur Springs by
Lobel and Adair Of Helena, and Frank
Hooks of Townsend, attorneys Of record
for McMasters who is resisting the order
for condemnation Of a strip of his ranch,
and the appointment Of appraisers.
Where Survey Runs
The proposed new highway in Broad
water county, surveys Of which have
been made by the state highway com
mission, follows the course Of the North
ern Pacific ~right-of-way. Between Clay
soil and Winston, where McMasters' ranch
is located, it veers from the railroad
across McMasters' ranch and to this the
ranchman objects. He is willing te
grant the ~right-of-way through his lanC
neal the railroad.
The point brought up by McMasters
attorneys is new and had not been anttct
pated by the county attorney Of Broad
water county and no argument was mad
by him regarding it.
May Change Policy
The law imposing the three-cent gaso
line tax gives the state exclusive Juris
diction in condemnation proceedings, &C
cording to McMasters' counsel, and tn
expense of securing a right-of-way mus
be borne by the state, especially in fed
eral aid projects. Judge Ford h a take
the case under advisement and a decisio
is expected shortly.
If the decision upholds McMaster5 o
the point referred to, it will mean
reversal Of the policy which has bee
followed heretofore of requiring thu
5 counties to arrange for the right-of-ws
under condemnation proceedings and pa
the expense.

An Attractive Smile.

Smiles are curious. Almost exactly
the same sort of facial twisting the
changing of position of few muscles
and the effect is either very pleas
ant, or distinctly unpleasant. So
many women look perfectly villainous
when they smile, and their emotions
are really very sweet. Why can't
they look sweet, when they feel so?
Something is wrong-and it isn't their
minds or their feelings-something is
simply physically wrong with the way
they smile.
What about your smile? If you
have any doubts about it, practice
smiling at yourself in q mirror. If it
doesn't express yourself, what you
feel, what you want to convey to
your friends, then do something about
Il. A smile is sweetness, or merri-
ment, or understanding, or plain joy
Of being alive, or amused derision; it
has thousand variations for a thou
sand shades of emotion. And all be-
cause the lips lengthen and the eyes
open wider, or become brighter!
OF course. the teeth are most i'm
portant in making a smile attractive
If you are conscious of having really
good teeth, you will smile as widely as
you want, knowing you are only add
ing to your attraction. If you have
poor teeth, you will suppress your
natural smiles, or try to smile with

full when it comes against the body
in strong currents at a temperature
| that clashes with that already sur
| rounding the person. Either Scorch-
ing winds or frigid breezes make one
uncomfortable when coming in
draughts of decidedly higher or lower
| temperature than that in room. The
| discomfort is a friendly warning or
| danger signal either to change one S
position or to stop the draught.
Baby Blankets Protect.
In the case of infants one method or
| the other must be resorted to imme-
| diately, according to the necessities of
| the surroundings. However, a wee
| baby can be so protected against chill
draughts of wintry air that the fresh
| air does not have to be shut out to
| such an extent that the benefits Of the
purity are eliminated. Infants ward
robes are sure to contain blankets of
beauty as we'll as warmth that can be
wrapped about head and shoulders as
well as the rest of the body.
Bassinets and Hoods.
Bassinets are so deep that the sides
shield the little one from air that
might otherwise come directly on it..
Hooded cradles were necessity in
colonial days, when homes were not
centrally heated and air would whis-
tie about rooms even If one sat close
to the open fire. Today the majority
of ho a. mir
the child is likely to sleep in a room
where currents of air circulate freely
a hood is a safeguard. 1t will scarcely
be of the old type, but be the modified
form that consists of flowing draperies
from a curved rod attached to the
standard of the bassinet.
Baby's Need for Air.
When a baby or little child sleeps
in room apart e~om its mother, less
air will be needed in the room with
out diminishing it's freshness. The
child uses up very little air compared
with that inhaled and eXhaled by
adults. When parents are accustomed
to and require wide-open windows
when they sleep, in order to wake
thoroughly refreshed, it is a wise pre-
caution to have the child sleep in an
other room. A higher temperature,
with no less purity of air, can be Main
tanned for the one little tot, who will
get all the fresh air it's constitution
demands. Another point in favor of
this arrangement is that when the in
FAINT requires attention during the
night the mother can give it in a
warmer and much more comfortable
room than the one where windows are
wide open. This tends to prevent her
from taking cold SO it is advantageous
for both mother and child.
