Snowdrips, appropriately named. are the first flowers of spring. Sometimes in a February thaw they hang out their three-cornered snawy little bells as far north as northern Illinois and southern Michigan. Planted near the founda- ton on the south side of house they find most favored location. Plant them under a window and some day, while there are patches of snow in the distance, you may glance down and see a breath of springtime almost at your feet.

Experiments May Make Fortune
For Switzer Brothers
Special to The News


Fromberg, Dec. 20.-Experiments
conducted over a period of many
months with a PHOSPHORUS paint,
designed for decorative purposes,
have resulted in huge success and
"a possible fortune for two former
Fromberg brothers, Robert and Joe
ISwitzer, who now reside at Berk-
eley, CAL, according to word re-
ceived by friends here.
The Switzer brothers, who spent
many long hours in the laboratory
p~erfecting their product, have Sc
cured a patent and are now be-
sieged by many firms seeking to
commercialize the new product.
Scientists, too, have evinced consid-
cradle interest in the Switzer dis
covery.
The paint product is combined
with ultraviolet rays, it was said,
and produces living c%olors, making
lit highly valuable for decorative
and display purposes.
A large San Francisco depart
ment store placed an order for
some of the paint, utilized it to
create a show window with a
northern lights" effect and at
tracted thousands of sightseers to
its establishment. The Metro-Gold-
wyn-Mayer studios, one of the
largest moving picture making
firms in Hollywood, is now expert
menting with the product with a
view of susing it in that industry.
The Switzer brothers have receiv-
ed inquiries as far away as France
and Italy concerning their new
discovery, and recently a Phila-
delphia, Pa, firm telegraphed for
an air-mail shipment.

BILL PROPOSED TO
AID HOME OWNERS
Would Exempt First $4,000
Of Valuation From
State Homes

All home owners, both in cities
and rural districts, would be aided
by a bill to be introduced in the
coming session of the Montana
state legislature, which opens JAN
uary 8, by j. w. Masterson, Demo
cratic representative-elect of Gus
ter county, proposing exemption
from taxation the first $4,000 OF
valuation on dwellings, occupied
by the owners
Mr.. Masterson, in q letter to The
News editor this week, stated that,
although his bill is primarily in
tended to benefit the small home
owner, it cannot be termed as
class legislation, as all homes,
whether worth 500 or 1,000,0 900,
would be exempted equally.
The Custer county representa-
tive points out that under present
conditions, the small home owner
is in peril of losing his home
through nonpayment of taxes, and
having lost it, the home is off the
assessment rolls, anyway. Conse-
quently, the amount of valuation
taken from the tax rolls, as pro-
posed in the bill, would make no
appreciate difference.
He further points out that the
bill would stimulate the working
of the home owners loan corpora
ton, declaring that the fear Of tax
alton has been the main stumbling
block in carrying out home build
ing and home Improvements urged
and sponsored by the Hole.
Should his bill be declared I'M
constitutional, Representative Mas
terson proposes to introduce, as a
companion measure, an amend
ment to the constitution, embody-
ing this legislation, for presenta-
ton and reference to the voters of
the state at the next general cleo
ton in 1886.

RITES CONDUCTED
FOR VIM. WEIDMAN,
ACCIDENT VICTIM
Roberts Rancher Died At
Columbus Hospital
From Injuries

Funeral services for William F,
Weidman, 62-year-old Roberts
rancher who died at a Columbus
hospital early last Wednesday
from injuries received in an auto
mobile accident near there the pre-
vious Nening, were conducted at
the Roberts Methodist Episcopal
church at 1880 p. m. Saturday, the
Rev. H. w. Woods of Red Lodge
officiating. Interment was in the
Roberts cemetery.
Together with Lawrence Harris,
IA, also of Roberts, and in a car
belonging to young Harris father,
Ned Harris, Mr.. Weidman had mo-
tored to Columbus Tuesday after
noon to meet his wife and his son
and daughter-in-law, Mr.. and Mrs.
Kenneth Weidman, and their child,
who were returning from a visit
with relatives and friends at Butte.
Leaving Columbus for Roberts
with young Harris driving the ma
chine, the party had proceeded to a
point a few rods south of the yell
lowstone bridge on the Columbus
Absarokee highway when they en-
countered a truck loaded with bal
ed hay and driven by Bill Cosgrove,
a Flaherty Flat rancher. In at
tempting to pass, the Harris ma
chine struck the baled hay, pro-
jecting from the side Of the truck,
swung over and went into the
ditch. The car did not turn over
and it is believed Mr.. Weidman
either jumped from the machine or
was thrown out by the impact.
A flying piece of glass from a
broken a window severed an art
cry in his throat and, although he
regained his feet without aid, be-
lieving that he was unhurt, others
present quickly a~scertained the ex-
tent of his injuries and he was i'm
m~ediately rushed to a hospital at
Columbus by G. J. S~palding, Still
water county agent, who was driv-
ing directly behind the Harris
machine. He succumbed there at
6:45 a. m. Wednesday.
Other participants in the car
crash escaped serious injuries.
Mr.. Weidman was a native of
Missouri, where he was born April
A, 1872. He had operated a ranch
one mile east of Roberts for the
past % years. He was a member
of the Lutheran church at Man
chester, Mo. Besides the widow,
and son, Kenneth, other immediate
survivors include six daughters and
another son, William, Jr., of Rob
erts. The daughters are Violet,
Viola and Jane Weidman, all of
Roberts, and Mrs. Jewell Street,
Mrs. Helen Rissler and Mrs. Nellie
Dodge, all of Casper, Wyo.

sisters, Mrs. Mary Schumacher and
Miss Adelia Weidman and two

~GLENGARRY'S MILL
NEARLY READY TO
OPERATE AT.COOkE
New Machinery Will Handle
50 Tons of Ore Every
"a Hours
Special to The News

Cooke, Dec. 21,.-A mill, with a
capacity of handling So tons of ore
every "a hours, will o be placed
in operation by the Glengarry Min
ing company at its properties on
Bull O. the Woods pass near the old
Tanner interests, DR.. Martin r.
Guenzel, head of the company, has
announced.
Recently purchased from a Den
yer firm, the capacity of the mill
can be enlarged as desired, it was
said. It's equipment includes am
algamation, table concentration and
flotation processes, preliminary
laboratory tests indicating the
feasibility of these processes on
Glengarry ore and fully justifying
the installation % the pilot plant,
according to DR.. Guenzel.
The mill is expected to start
production within the next few
days.
In a recent statement the Glen
garry president said:
Gold mining is at present the
only industry which really pros
pers. When power was given the
president to abandon the gold
standard and stop payment of gov
eminent debts in gold, and when
gold was raised to so per cent
above its former standard price,
then the gold mining industry be-
came inspired with new life.
at requires only a moments
reflection to realize what this has
meant and will mean to the gold
producer and especially to the
quaint, undeveloped mining camp
at Cooke. AS other forms of bust
ness went to lower and lower lev
els gold mining became more and
more prosperous.
"The price of gold has risen and
unlike other industries, gold min
ing does not suffer from over-pro-
duction. The minis and central
banks are ready to take all the
mines can produce.
Furthermore, as a result of the
fall in commodity prices, the oper-
ating cost has fallen. Prices on
timber, fuel and machinery have
been reduced and less ounces of
gold are required to cover these
expenditures.
$50 it cannot be disputed that
the Glengarry mines are the most
developed mines in the New
World district. Several thousand
feet of underground work has
been done, which assures enough
water for milling and other pur-
poses.
at is generally predicted that
Cooke City will witness the great
est boom in its history this coming
season."
At an annual meeting of the
%company's board of directors, held
early this month at Miles City, DR..
Guenzel was reelected president,
Maxfield H. Keck was named
vice president; Harry Book, sec
rotary; Rudolph MATHS, treasurer;

INJUNCTION SOUGHT
AGAINST RECEIVER
Woodbridge -Langdon Bank Seeks
to Retain Present Con-
servat0r.

Secretary of the Treasury Morgen-
thau. Controller of the Currency
J.F. T. OConnor, Gibbs Lyons, depu-
ty controller. and Carter B. Keene,
appointed receiver for the Woodbridge
Langdon Savings & Commercial Bank
on April 10, are named as defend
ants in an injunction suit filed yes
terday by the bank and two OF its
stockholders.
The suit seeks to prevent the sub
stitution of a paid receiver for a
conservator, who has been serving
without compensation.
The bank claims it entered into
the Hamilton National Bank merger
last year, relying on the assurance
given by Treasury Department Off
cials that E. L. Norris. the conselva-
tor. would be allowed to liquidate the
remaining assets and wind up the
banks affairs.
1t is stated in the petition that w.
Irving Shuman, Treasury Department
official promised the board OF direc-
tors of the bank that Norris would be
retained as conservator if they would
join in the Hamilton merger. The
bank building was leased to the
Hamilton. the plaintiffs state, for a
considerably lower rental than its
fair value, with the provision that
the conservator would be allowed to
maintain offices there.
Then, without the banks knowl-
edge and without a hearing, it is
claimed, Keene was appointed re-
ceiver and Norris commission as con-
servator revoked.
According to usual court procedure
the defendants will have five days in
which to answer the action.
