MANY OF us who haven't thought
about afternoon dresses in many years
find that this season our wardrobe
doesn't seem complete without at least
one such outfit. This is partly due
to the vogue for separate fur capes.
A delightful example of the afternoon
dress is shown here. 1t is of cocoa

the bodice is folded back softly to re-
veal the satin back of the fabric. The

Announcement of the Max Baer-

talk Of confiscation of the films and
of possible indictments flying around,
the show houses held the picture Off

Meanwhile some of the patrons were
demanding their money back. The
situation cleared up later, however,
and the films went on the screen.

Virginia sing, Lily Pens advised the
young actress not to waste any more

He understood the Indian character
better than most men, which enabled
him to make friends Of the Sioux. The
hostiles then turned their attention
to the friendly tribes. The Sioux war
fare was so destructive that the friend
ly Indian visits became fewer as the
months passed, until the trade at the
post became next to nothing. During
the spring Of 1874. Glendinnin dis
| mantled the buildings and moved up
river to a new location. Only the
WoodhaWks at the woodyards remain
ed, for the steamboats, must have fuel.
Much documentary evidence records
the events that occurred during the
two years while Musselshen existed.
Part of the time a newspaper cores
pondent was stationed there. He Wv
idly recounted Indian conflicts, the
cruel treachery Of the So-called friendly
Indians in killing and mutilating
wcodhawSs when they could catch their
victims unawares, the details of which
would fill volumes.
After Col. Glendinnin moved his
trading establishment up the river,
peace once more reigned on the river
bottomlands, except for an occasional
raid on the woodyardS by the ever
hostile Santees. Then, during the
summer Of 1880, a few herds Of cattle
were trailing into the country from ov-
er-stocked ranges They were turned
adrift along the streams where the
rich native grasses grew in abundance,
and although there were great herds
of buffalo in the county at that time,
the cattle thrived on their new range.
More cattle were trailed into the
country from the Rio Grande; also
horsemen with their herds of brood
mares. Wherever horses and cattle
roam the ranges there will always be
found outlaws, stock thieves, lurking
in the shadows and blinds ike hungry
coyotes. The outlaws became holder
and their numbers grew as the years
passed. Their depredations caused the
stockmen grievous loss. On top of this,
some outlaws were selling whisky to
the Indians, melting the redmen to kill
range cattle and to help gather horses I
for the Canadian market.
Such were the conditions that faced
the stockmen in the summer of 1884. /
While the stockmen were debating how
to handle the situation, Sam Mckenzie,
q half-breed, arrived at Fort Maginnis t
riding stolen pony. A group of cow
boys from the DIS ranch near by,
recognized the pony and the rider. I
Sam was also known to have helped
drive stolen horses across the line into
Canada. The cowboys locked him up
for the night and the next morning he
was taken to cottonwood tree, moose
adjusted and the other end of the rope 4
thrown over a limb, then the cowboys
pulled on the rope and hoisted Sam
into the air, where he strangled to
death. It is from this hanging that the
vigilantes received their name "Strang-
lers." The occurrence started the ball
rolling; men we're sworn in to act as
Vigilantes. Then came the hanging Of

Rocky Point CWilder) and the coun-
try adjacent was the scene of conflicts
between the Indians and the white
men, but Rocky Point is noted more
as the meeting place Of the vigilantes
I'm their activities against the unde-
sirables. Not far from Rocky Point Is
the site where two men were conduct
ing a woodward as a blind for their
horse stealing proclivities. The vigil
lantes arrived at their cabin one night
and hanged the two men from the
ridgepoIe inside the cabin Their names
were Sam LaFevor and Charley Gibbs.
The next day the vigilantes, on their
way down the river, met Frank Bel
Waux, who was on his way to Rocky
Point, Frank did not reach his destina-
ton. He paid the penalty for his crimes.
Frank BelWaux was a notorious char
acter-the kind that delights in boast
ing of dishonest deeds. This part Of the
river is also noted for some Of the mad
escapades of pike" Landusky.
It was during the summer of 1868,
q handful of hardy Adventures erected
q number of log cabins on a small
sagebrush flat at the mouth Of the
Musselshell river. They named their
little settlement, Kerchivial City, after
q steamboat captain. The town existed
less than a year; 1t was abandoned be-
cause Of the unceasing hostility Of the
Santee Sioux Indians, who contested
the white mans right to Build in the
domain which the Sioux claimed by
treaty rights. Two years later, the
Northwest Hide and Fur company
erected a trading post on the site where
Kerchivial City had stood. They were
followed by Colonel Glendinnin who
was associated with G. T. Power of
Fort Benton. They also erected a trad
ing post to trade with the friendly
Crows, Gros Ventures and Assinniboines.
The little town grew; it became the
hangout for trappers during the sum-
mer months; it soon boosted some 40
log cabins and two trading establish
ments. They called their little town, |
A6usselshell City.
Two years of continual fighting with
the hostile Sioux and many acts of
treachery by the friendly tribes,
brought about the abandonment of the
city. Only Col. Glendinnin with a few
helpers remained to carry on the work
Of trading merchandise for hides and
furs. He strongly fortified his build

". Glendinnin was a likeable man
