COOKE CITY
News Items
BY L. NJ. PriI

Cooke City, Mont, july Sin
terest in the past is expressed by
so many visitors in Cooke City,
that a brief history of some of the
old timers will be given from.
time to time in these items. The
man to be so featured this week
is the first resident of the city
Jack Allen.
Mr.. Allen, when a youth, decid-
ed to leave his home in Rhode
Island and throw in his fortunes
with the west. Arriving in Gus
ter City, in the Black Hills of
South Dakota, on the 18th of May,
1876. He spent four years there
and in Deadwood, and then decid-
ed he had not gone far enough
west. He then emigrated to Boze-
man, and left the Black Hills
country on July l, 1881. The day
after leaving saw bloody history
in national affairs, as on that day
Garfield met a martyred doom.
This history was rather old to Mr..
Allen, however, as he did not learn
of it until his arrival in Bozeman,
on the 7th of the month.
Mr.. Allen enjoyed the city life
of Bozeman for a year, but again
decided to become a pioneer in the
true sense of the word. May 20,
1882, he, in company with Harry
Sweeney, hitched a four-horse
team to a mountain wagon and
started the trek to the then almost
unknown country now designated
as the New World mining district.
Previously all travel into the
country was made on foot or with
pack horses. In order to reach
Cooke City the two men found it
necessary to build their own road
in places and after seventeen days,
arrival was made in the place
which has since been the home of
Mr.. Allen.
The first efforts in the new
home were Immediately started by
the new arrival and Mr.. Allen
built the first hotel in the camp.
His "reminiscences as to the pio-
neer days are very interesting and
among those told the writer re-
ferred to the first store here. 1t
was run by a man named S. B.
Wyman and was located in a log
building just east of the present
Soderholm store. Prices were very
different than those of today and
coal oil sold for the sun Of $3.50
a gallon. Prospectors and miners
were not used to soap in those
days as a bar of that commodity
was listed to those desiring it at
25 cents a bar. All other neces-
sites of life commanded a like
charge. Gold dust was a barter of
exchange and the visitor of today
a hardly realize the life of the
pioneer, with running water, cleo
trio lights and all modern conven-
fences.
Mr.. Allen erected the Commerce
ial hotel and he has continuously
run this hostelry for So years, as
he and Mrs. Allen retired only this
spring, having leased the hotel to
Bozeman people. This worthy pio-
neer couple are the oldest residents
of Cooke City today, and live in a
comfortable home on the noun
tainside in the north part of town.
Today they look down at the
teeming activity and are content
with their faith in the home they
have created.

Newport, R. l., Sept 26. (UP)-
 In an atmosphere of. bitterness tho
 sixth yacht race to determine
 ownership of the America's cup
 began to-day, when the two con
 tenders Endeavour and Rainbow,
 were hauled from their berths in
 Newport harbor out to a choppy
 sea.
 The tension had been augmented
 by statement twelve hours before
 In which T. o. n. Sopwith the challenger, had declared his "ereAt disappointment that the New
 York Yacht club committee had
 failed to give heed to his protest against Harold Vanderbilt's safl- ing tactics.
 Raw Deal Sopwith had hinted he would sail away from America at the earliest opportunity. He refused to discuss the grounds for his com p1aint against the, sailing master of the American yacht but said that he had never expected to receive the treatment accorded him by the New York Yacht club com mittee.
 There will be no such contro- versy as arose in 1871 when Lord Dunraven went back to England to receive the cheers of his people for his vigorous and spectacular protest against the American man- agement of the cup races. Sop- with Is popular here and he has
 back of him at least eighty per- cent of the amateur yachtsmen who follow the course of smaller boat races.
 It was believed tO.day that whether Sopwtth wins or loses his race against the overwhelming odds established against him by . succession of rules formulated by the New York Yacht club which governs racing fin American waters there win not be any American
 cup race again perhaps for many years.
 If Vanderbilt wins the royal yacht squadron quite likely will not challenge again. Endeavour which was built for the cup races was the finest yacht England could produce. Almost every yachting expert agrees in Newport that if she were manned by a competent crew and navigated by an after guard that was familiar with these currents, breezes, oceans and airs, the British boat would be the bet- ter sloop.
 Maybe!
 In other words if we should swap crews on Endeavour and Rainbow and put them over the course for any seven races En-. deavour would not lose match. It was surprising that Sopwi.h
 did not ask last night for post ponement of to-day's race. His
 acquisence in the matter of accept ing to-day's race was regarded nr significant of his determination to close the series at once, win or lose and then to turn his back on America.

Ben Eastman To Race Beccali
 On Harvard Track

Blazing Ben Eastman, former Stanford star, will oppose Luigi Beccali, Italian Olympic champion, when he attempts to make a new worlds 1500 meter run record in the Harvard Stadium October 5, providing present plans of high A. A. U. officials do not miscarry.
 Gustavus T. Kirby, chairman of the American Italian University committee, is making every effort to get Eastman as Beccali's oppon- ent. When the Italian star arrived in New York last week, he suggest ed Eastman as an opponent, and though the distance of 1900 meters is longer than Eastman usually runs, it is a known fact that Ben believes he can be just as fast over the longer distance as at 800 meters. Eastman now holds the world 800 meter mark.

 The Italian students will have a busy day ahead of them when they arrive in Cambridge on October 5, the tentative plans calling for all elaborate athletic meet in the Sta dium, a basketball game, fencing meet and a soccer game.

He is a student at the Uni- versity of Milan and has been in training all summer for this record attempt in the United States.
 Every effort is being made to have the stadium track in the fin- est condition ever for Beccali's record attempt. The Harvard Ath- letic association has taken out all the football track seats and the trek is being carefully groomed for this meet.
 The meet is to start at 2:30 D. m. and all seats in the Stadium will be unreserved with the one price of 55 cents covering admis- sion to any part of the stands.

BRITISH FIRM
 ON CLOTHES FOR
 GIRL ATHLETES
|Backless Costumes Barred and 1918 Attire Is
 Retained
By Fl. L. PERCY

United Press Stan Correspondent
 London (UP)-Women swim mers must not wear backless cos- tunes. and women hockey players are going to stick to the 1918 tu- mic fashion.
 These are two announcements from official sources. They strike an old fashioned note at a time when in most other feminine sports the minimum of clothing seems to have been reached.
 Tennes players have backless dresses, shorts, and no stockings; women athletes wear as fiimcy att tire as the men: women golfers are taking to trousers. But British hockey girls must retain the gym nastic serge over a white blouse with long sleeves. and long black lisle stockings. The sleeves never are rolled above the elbow. Simi- larly, women swimmers must have costumes reaching within nine inches of the base of the neck at the back. or .4h inches in the front.
 Only the United States, appar- ently. follows Britain in wearing 'ancient" hockey kit The touring American side which has been playing here and on the Continent also appeared in tunics.
 There is little likelihood of Brit. ish and American women hockey players ever going to this extreme. It is possible, however, that soon officialdom will allow ankle socks instead Of the full-length stock ings. It Is claimed that the socks give greater freedom of movement.

NATIONAL HORSE SHOW SET FOR
 NOVEMBER 7-l3

New York (UP)-Thrills and spills accompanied by daring horsemanship will be the lot of New Workers the week of Novem- bSr 7-13 when the annual National Horse Show is held at Madison Square Garden.
 Arrangements of the program by officials so as to provide an in ternational jumping contest every night has been announced. The show is famous over the world for it's jumping competition in which army riders from the United States, South America and Europe take part.
 This year a six day contest, open to officers and civilians, has been arranged. All competitors will jump the first night, the winner being withheld from further com- petition until the championship is held on the last night of the show. with all winners competing.
 The championship contestants will race over a course of eight barriers, two of them new to the show. They are a road barrier, four feet high with two flares set beneath and also a railway gate. These innovations, while not ex- ceedingly high, will require good horsemanship from the rider and exceeding ability from the horse to negotiate.
 Unlike famous shows in Europe, the national provides numerous saddle and harness classes, besides jumping, although there are "a events in the latter category.
 Most dazzling of all will be the military jumping. Presence of of ficers from various countries in vari-colored uniforms lends an air of pageantry to a scene otherwise colored with the pink coats oi hunt teams massed against q back ground of society In full dress surrounding the ring at the Gar den.
 There win be several contests for women riders and some of ths country's leading 'horsewomen arc due 10 take part. notably Mfi John Hay whitney. Mrs Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney. Misses Helen Bedford. Charlotte Ives MontGom' cry. Deborah Rood. Wiihelmins
