JACK

Jack Bishop, long a familiar
figure on our streets and in the
various houses, passed away at
about ten o'clock last Sunday
morning at the Loeppky home.
He was about so years old. Pull
monary tuberculosis was the
cause. The body was shipped to
Hortan, Kansas, to be buried be-
side Bishops parents. One broth
er, Arthur Bishop of K~anesville,
Mo. is the only known living rel
alive.
Bishop was a quiet man, with a
CHEEKY word and friendly smile for
his acquaintance. All his life he
had followed the business of cook
and waiter. Loving adventure, his
trade enabled him to go to the
new places where there was ex-
element and adventure In plenty.
To those whom he knew he used
to like to relate stories of the
idtto nt ndu NloAICo- I16 Was III
the Klondike at the height of the
gold rush. He was one of the
first men into the room after the
celebrated fight that Rex Beach
commemorated in his book, 1.-THE
Spoilers" He knew Cherry Mel
lotte, one of the characters of the
book, and Tex Richard was an
other acquaintance. At one time
he had a comfortable fortune, but
it went as it had come, easily. |
OF his people, he said little even
to his intimates. He was not mar
ried.
When the division point was
moved to Wolf Point, and it be-
came a boom town Jack Bishop
1rifted to Wolf Point, and here
remained-until the end.

PRAY FOR PRAY" new
BOOTLEGCER SLOGAN
(Richland County Leader)

Yes. he's a rough one alright
Old Judge Pray, is the baby who
socks you on the beezer and makes
you like it.
This is the song we have been
hearing for a long time, and all
of the bootleggers have been on
their toes when they heard of one
of their friends who was to appear
before him.
But the truth of the matter is
that he has made a laughing
stock out of his court and the en-
tire dry force as well by the
ridiculous fines and sentences he
has brought before him at the
term of Federal court held at Bill
ings last week. The slogan among
the bootleggers of Montana from
now on will be pray for Pray"
Believe it or not, this experienced
judge fined some of these piggers
as much as $3.50. and a 80 day sem
tence. And he did not give any of
them less than a $500 fine. oh,
1t was terrible. Why, he even
gave w M. Millage of this place
80 day sentence and a $4,000
Think of it. And it was
only about the the third time MI.
Millage had been up, too. Why,
it will take Curly, 1--WE all call
him Curly, here) nearly two days
to make up this backset. And be-
sides, before he can get out of
jail there may be a lot more would
be b~ootleggers in the game, be-
cause it would be just an accident
if federal men came here nosing
about. And if they did, they
would refuse to grab any whiskey
even if they saw it unless they
had a search warrant. Another
thing is, these federal man are
such gentlemen. And they might
accidently pull n of our lady
Dootleggers, and that wouldn't be
nice.
Anyway girls, we believe, the
pest thing for you to do is to lay
off is that kind of stuff is a mans
Job and they look better behind
all bars than do you women, and
surely the time will come when
some federal officer will come in
Ind grab the bunch, you included.
