WTHILE THE present prosperity
w of Bozeman is due to its posi-
ton as the market center Of one of
the richest agricultural districts in
the world, its early importance
arose from its location at the
''front gate" as Bozeman enthus-
lasts call it, to western Montana.
1t was this pass, the Bozeman, for
merly known as the Yellowstone
pass, by which the Indians Of the
upper Columbia river were accus-
toned to cross over into the yell
lowstone or Musselshell country on
their buffalo hunts.
While the GaIIatin valley itself was
not the permanent abode of any In
dian tribe since the beginning Of the
nineteenth century, it was claimed by
the Blackfeet and became a common
fighting ground for all the surround
ing tribes. The trail was worn deeply
into the soil by the moccasin and the
hoof of the Indian pony.

Varendry, who made his way up the
Missouri during the years 1880 to 1744
and reached the Rocky mountains on
Jan. 1, 1743. In 1907 Emanuel Lisa as
cended the Missouri with a large party
and established a trading post at the
confluence Of the Yellowstone and the
Big Horn Lisa returned TO St. Louis
and with ii others formed the Mis-
souri, Fur company with q capltal Of
$40 900. In 1909 he again assembled the
Yellowstone, crossed the Bozeman pass
and established q post at the three
forks of the Missouri. For many years
thereafter the Bozeman pass served the
fur trader as well as the Indian as a
gateway to the northwest.
In the winter of 1862 John M. Boze-
man and John M. Jacobs left Ban
mack for the states with the object Of
finding a shorter route for emigrants |
than up the Platte and through Wy
oming and Idaho. They traversed Boze-

duced to a diet Of grasshoppers, but /

sale Of wolf hounds. A number Of stock
men attended and bought. A deter
mined effort was being made to rid the
ranges Of predatory animals II golf
dogs were the effective medium BY
which to accomplish this result, the
stpcl1men were willing to give II a fair
trial. The sale Melted the sum Of $zO0
for the clubs pack.
The experiment had been tried IN
Colorado during the years of 1882 and
1888. Sheepmen in that state pur-
chased greyhounds to run down the
animals and rid the country of an In
tolerable pest. r. p. Dodd, an extern
sive sheep raiser, gave the following
testimony:
''But the experiment was not sue
cess, for, although the greyhounds
could easily run down the coyotes, when
they came in close quarters the latter
were far more than q match for the
dogs. Turning over on their backs they
would snap to right and to left with
their sharp teeth. infIicting severe
wounds. BY the time the following
horsemen came I'D the hounds were
badly injured. Soon the hounds could
not be induced to go anywhere near
the coyotes and we got rid of the USE
less animals We had given up any
hope Of Kidding ourselves Of the pests.
Poisoned meat was more disastrous to
our dogs than to the wolves and coyotes,
and by shooting we could not dispatch
any number worth counting"
However, upon the recommendation
Of Mr.. Lane Of Cheyenne, the Col
orado sheepman purchased pack Of
Scotch deer hounds that had proved Of
great use on the Laramie plains in
combating the coyotes. These dogs
would run down a coyote, and over
taking it, would be sure TO kill it. The
grey wolves were larger and stronger
and fought furiously 1t required sew
eral Of the Scotch deer hounds to dis
patch one wolf and often the dogs were
killed outright. The high hopes held
N Montana for the determination Of
wolves and coyotes through the use OF
wolf dogs were never fully realized.

The use Of grey hOunsls, or wolf

Murdered by B1ackfeeE
Bozeman was murdered on the yell
lowstone in 1857 by Blackfeet who were
fugitives from their own tribe for XIII
ing chief and were then living with
the Crows. Bozeman was buried where
he was killed, but two years later MAJ
Jor Camp brought his body to Boze-
man and had II buried in the grave
yard on the bluff where the late Nell
son Story, near whose camp Bozemanl
was attacked, erected many years lat-
er handsome monument.
During the two years following the
first settlement at Bozeman the prin-
cipal immigration into Montana was
by the B0zemau pass and many OF
those who later were leaders in poll
tics and industry in the state came by
this route. Forts Reno, Phil KeRrney
and @. F. Smith were built to protect
this road but after the Fort Phil Kear-
ney massacre in 1855, the government
ordered all the forts abandoned and
the road closed to travel.
One year before the first house was
built IN Bozeman party Of MisSou-
rians laid out Gallatin City at the
Three Forks, supposing this point to
be the head Of navigation on the Mis-
souri,. Most of them abandoned the To-
cation when they learned Of the falls

The diversion OF travel to the "side
doors" via Fort Benton and Pleasant
Valley doomed Bozeman for many
years to remain a frontier village The
weakening came with the completion
If the Northern Pacific line. The Boze-
man tunnel was opened on Jan. %,
1884, and Bozeman pass ceased to be.
The road had entered the city in the
preceding March.

Boyle Speeds

BALTIMORE, Aug. 2.-"Full
speed ahead" That's the slogan
Of General Manager Joseph B.
Boyle in regards the fall racing
meeting, beginning Tuesday, Au-
gust q, at Marlboro. following his
return from a wen-earned vaca-
ton.
General Manager Boyle, in addi-
ton to speeding things up for the
approaching Marlboro meeting,
will also work on plans for the
Bowie session, which will have
the honor Of winding up Mary
lands fall racing season in Nov
ember.
With his pal, the late Thomas
Kirby gone, Boyle will have to
work a wee bit harder to make
the Marlboro and Bowie meetings
a success. However, Boyle, who
has been associated with numer-
GUS race meetings in this country
and Canada, isn't afraid Of work
and can be counted upon to offer
sport of the highest caliber.
HorSemen, who plan to race at
either Marlboro or Bowie, should
file stall applications with Track
Superintendent Nick Pending.
These applications can be mailed
either to the tracks Or to the asso-
cations offices, 317 Baltimore
Life Building, in this city. It is
advisable for horSemen to file re-
quests at once, and scores of
prominent American and Cana
dian stables are anxious to race
at Marlboro, and a first-comes first
served policy will be adhered to-.
Seven races wilt be offered daily
at Marlboro. Excellent train Serv-
ice from Baltimore and Washing
ton will be furnished by the Penn
sylvania Railroad. In addition,
the various automobile bus COM
pahieS of these cities will operate
their fleets on hourly schedules
during the sport in Prince Georges
county.
Motorists who desire to drive
to Marlboro will find the high
ways from Washington and Balti-
more o. the finest. There is free
parking space on track property
for 5000 cars. Motorists can drive
directly into the track and park
their machines before having to
go to the trouble of turning over
their admission tickets.

LAUREL, Md, Aug. 2.-The
Maryland State Fair, Inc, which
will offer a 25-day race meeting,
beginning October 2, has decided
to include the daily double" in
connection with each days first
and third races.
This wa sdecided upon following
a conference between President
Andrew j. Cummings, Pari-Mutuel
Manager H. A. M. Frank and Gen
eral Manager Frank Brady. AS a
result, all four of this States mile
track and two of its half-mile
courses use both the daily dou-
BILE" and pari-mutuel wagering.
Popular to Fans
The great popularity shown for
the double" since Bowie inaugu'
rated the idea last April has
caused the Pimlico, Hagerstown,
Cumberland and Havre de Grace
tracks to go in for this system Of
wagering.
Bowie set a worlds record OF
$30,980 last April, but this was
shattered Preakness Day at Pim-
lico, when $55,110 was placed in
the double" pool.
With so many American and
Canadian horses running here this
fall, numerous long shots should
score, which will likely cause a
new worlds double" record to be
hung out by Manager Frank.
Turner Works Hard
Race Secretary j. P. Turner, ST.
is working on the book for the
meeting and hopes to be able to
distribute it among horsemen
early next month.
Turner, ST., will make every ef-
fort to include a steeplechase
daily in his programs. This will
permit the Maryland State Fair,
Inc, to offer eight races daily
and thus garner additional rev.
enue.
