hospital in Billings Saturday night at
$3.50, having been taken there from
his home in Bearcreek that afternoon.
Mr.. Besinque had been i'll for several
weeks and it was hoped that by plac-

caused by a growth on the neck and
throat.

in France, to Miss Alice Merciez. Be-
sides his wife he is survived by one
son, Jules Besinque, secretary of the
miners union at Bearcreek, and by
seven grandchildren.
Funeral services were held at the
family home in Bearcreek Tuesday
afternoon at 2:30. Services were con-
Quoted under the auspices of the
United Mine Workers Of America
the Rev. D. McCorkle officiating at
the home and the union holding brief

RED LODGE YOUNG,
LADY Gets FINE
MOVIE CONTRACT
Miss Monica Plunkett Is Now
Member Of Fox Producing
Company.

Miss Monica Plunkett, daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. j. P. Piankett, is now
enrolled as regular member of the
Fox Producing company, contract
having been signed for Que year with
that company.
Miss Plunkett, who is only 16 years
old, has been attending The Hollywood
high school for the past tas years and
was to have graduated Iii February
of next year, but with the offer of
the Fox company she will now be a
member of the class in the late spriag,
While working in the movies, she will
have a private tutor, furnished by the
Fox people, and prior to her gradua-
ton, will have 16 weeks in which to
finish school, receiving her weekly
salary, although she will not be
working.
Several weeks ago the Fox people
began looking around for dancing
chorus. Madame DeSilva, who con-
ducts large dancing academy, and
who has been instructing Miss Plum
kett, proposed her name as prospect
Franchon & Marco, celebrated dane
ing masters of the film studios, con.
Quoted the selection of suitable mem
bers for the chorus and in the first
try-out S78 girls were given trials
Next, a group of $50 girls were Sc
lected and of this number 100 were
again given trials. The last, and
fourth contest saw rs girls in the
lists from this group so were selected
for screen tests. Eighteen girls were
able to survive this final test anc
Miss Plunkett headed the group anc
was given solo dancing part as al
added part Of her contract.
The first work on location in Miss
Plunketts picture will be on Mon
day, Oct. 20. 1t will take severa
months to complete this picture. The
name of it is not known here at this
time and the principles in the film
have not been announced.
Miss Plunkett has made a wonderful
success since going to Hollywood t.
attend school. Last year she was the
only junior selected in that large
school to take part in the senior class
play. She made the swimming team
and has taken an active part in ORA
MATES and dancing.
/ While engaged in her regular schoo
work, Miss Plunkett has been a stu
dent in the Hollywood Conservatory
Of Music, has studied dramatic art, ex
preston and dancing under the direc
ton Of Earl Williams and Madame De
Silva, fitting herself for the kind o
a position she has now received. The
offer to take part in the contest came
as a very pleasant surprise.
An interesting feature of the 70,
company's offer was that longtime
contract was offered Miss Plunkett
but this offer was refused, it being
thought that one-year contract wa'
of sufficient duration. We predict ;
great future for this talented young
Red Lodge lady, and with her sunny
and sweet disposition, coupled will
untiring efforts, she should be able tt
accept every screen opportunity tina
may be available.

100000 BRITISH
MINERS STARVING
Naturalization and the
Long Day Fatal

LONDON, Nov. 29.-The plight
Of unemployed miners in Britain has
reached such serious stage that
the miners federation has issued an
appeal for assistance. Nearly 3O0.-
900 mine workers are out of en-
ployment, and of those 100000 to
100000 constitute a permanent un-
employed surplus, due to the ra-
tionalization measures of employers,
vicious wage-cutting, longer hours
and speed-up which followed the be-
trayal of the miners by the trade
union reactionaries at the time of
the general strike.
With their wives and children, it
means that over million face hun
ger unless help is speedily forth
coming.
The miners federation, in it's APP
peal, says: "The mining population
is faced with a cataclysm compar-
able to the destruction wrought by
some great earthquake or other~giant
disturbance of nature. Some of the
miners have exhausted their unem-
ployed benefit and are being sup
ported by grants from the poor law,
which naturally are small, and the
courts are filled with stories of hun
cry miners tramping the country
side in search of work"

Now That ROthstein's
Dope Records Are Gone
His Papers Are Saved

District Attorney Banton suddenly
decided yesterday that the file of
letters, contracts, memorandum and
other documents taken rom the dead
gambler, Arnold Rothstein's, Fifth
Ave. home will now be shown to the
grand jury, $50 that nothing more
can disappear mysteriously."
Records which disappeared mys-
teriously, in all the days during
which Banton's office "forgot" to
safeguard them, are said to have the
best evidence connecting Rothstein
and his underworld ring with Tam
many Unprotected rackets, such as
crooked gambling and big dope
smuggling game. Now they are
gone, all the rest must be saved for
the trial.
Indictments will be voted for or
against in the murder case today.

GIL TO TAKE
OFFICE TODAY
Bound to Cancellation
With u. S. Capital

MEXICO CITY, Nov. 29.-Emilio
Portes Gil, already bound by the
policies of President Gales and his
own conversations with Dwight Nor
row, formerly of ]. P. Morgan and
Company and now Yankee ambas-
sador to Mexico, to a conciliatory
policy toward United States invest
ments, will be inaugurated as pro-
visional president of Mexico Friday
in ceremony at the National Sta
dunn.
Representative of the army, gov
ernors and diplomats will partici-
pate in the Inauguration, which will
mark the beginning of the campaign
for constitutional president who will
take office at the end of Portes Gil's
term in February, 1880.
Portes Gil, who was elected to re-
place the late General 0bregon,
whose assassination was caused by
reactionary clerical elements, has
been instrumental in furthering the
proposed new labor code, which,
while granting some temporary
reforms, binds the hands of the
workers in their right to strike and
creates illusions as to the possibility
of a liberal government to meet their
needs.
1t is expected that Portes Gil will
announce his cabinet early next
week. The probable membership in
cludes: Arturi Orci, Interior; Gil
berto Valenzuela, Treasury; General
Lazaro Caldenas, War; Pastor
Rouaix, Industry; Manuel Puig Ca
