Information on the Goth ami
versary of Clusters last fight
which will be commemorated near
Hardin, June 25, has been sent to
o. H. P. Shelley by Bert E. Kron-
miller: Mr.. Kronmiller reiterated
his invitation that any literature
Red Lodge might have for dissent
nation will be given preference. He
writes:
General George A. Custer and
his command of 270 soldiers at
this battle ground, which over
looks the Little Big Horn river
and which is located approximate
ly Is miles southeast of Hardin,
Montana, were over come by Chief
Sitting Bull and his Sioux and
Cheyenne warriors. Every man
was killed at the battle, and as the
story goes "none wounded, none
missing, all dead" The purpose of
holding the Sixtieth Anniversary
is to permit the Indian war vet
erans to once again witness a COM
memoration of this historical
event. Many of these Indian war
veterans are at least 80 years of
age and will be present at the Six
tieth Anniversary.
Among the Indian war veterans
will be a surviving member of
Major Reno's troops, whose name
is Charles A. Windolph of Leade,
South Dakota, who was separated
from General Clusters command
during the battle. Mr.. Windolph
was a member of the water car

"Alkali" Weydt, who already pre-
sents an appearance which makes

M. M. Stumpff was appointed
chairman of the committee to
make arrangements for the quad
rifle dance on horseback at the

BITING THE HEN
THAT FEEDS 'EM

One of the strangest recorded
instances Of mother complex
among birds or animals has been
reported by Mrs. C. I. Lane, who
resides with her husband on the
Deuel. ranch 114 miles south of
Roberts.
Going out to her chicken house
the other day Mrs. Lane found,
with dismay that her old white
hen was mothering three baby
skunks.
Alarmed, Mrs. Lane tried to
separate the odd alliance, only
to meet with fierce resistance on
the part of the hen. Neighbors
attracted to the scene likewise
found their presence objection
able.
Chickens and skunks are nat
urally traditional and sworn ene-
mics. The odoriferous animal
annually kills and eats thous-
ands of the fowl.

Tourists from all sections of the
country daily visit Red Lodge to
experience one of the greatest
driving thrills in the world: a
journey over the new Red Lodge
Cooke City highway. The road was
officially opened Sunday, being
cleared by a crew under Engineer
G. B. Petersen.
A local observer who tested the
Well-groomed highway Sunday
found that a cosmopolitan crowd
was attracted here. Scrutinizing
the licenses of cars coming towards
Red Lodge he found that ten
states were represented. Licenses
were from Maine, New Mexico,
Kansas, Minnesota, California,
Oregon, Iowa, Wyoming, Wiscon-
sin and South Dakota.
y While there are many beautiful
roads in the country, Red Lodge,
as key city to the stretch, is
proud Of the beauty of the high
way. .
In the Beartooth mountains is
found all the old majestic beauty
of the Swiss Alps, yet there is
something different, too, some
thing wild and wondrous about
this rugged, richly wooded country
that one surveys from the coun-
try's highest and most novel high
.way-11, 900 feet high. This climb
is not noticeable, SO gradual is the
ascent, so perfect is the wide, we'll
