Chuck is spending a quiet win

expert predicts Klein will tout

He is keeping in good shape dur

Klein enjoys throwing the min

seen doing just that at the Pritch-

former league ball player and also
one of the nations best pin

there are many tanning bees when

forty-t three homers, and collected
PIG hits in 149 games. His total

Along with his swat power he
has developed into a good out

Long Lost Wedding Ring Found.

LEWISTOWN, March 10.-(U.P.)
The world is small, men are honest,
condolences bordering on the miracu-
lous occur-these three facts comprise
the explanation of the restoration of
wedding ring lost 20 years ago.
1t was back in 1910 in Kendall,
Mont, that Mrs. Henry Parent lost
her wedding ring, whose principal
value lay in her sentimental attach
ment. Diligent search failed to reveal
the lost ring. Finally it was given up
for. lost.
The other day in Phoebe, New, Will
Young who lived in Kendall as boy
and who as a grown man is in charge
of mining property in Phoebe, was
approached by an elderly miner.
II understand, sir, you used to live
in Kendall" he began; well, d'you
know whose these initials are?"
And he produced the long lost we'd
ding ring with the initials of Mr.. and
Mrs. Parent inscribed on the inside.
"Sure | do" exclaimed Young, and,
in due time the ring was returned to
its rightful owner.
It seemed that the miner had picked
up the ring on the street. He was new
in the town, and failed to find the
owner Eventually he drifted away,
never to return. But always he kept
the trinket, hoping some day to hap
pen onto the owner.
