Two strange old Chinese guns, used
in the Boxer uprising, were presented
to the Association of Oldest Inhabit-
ants last night for their museum in

The presentation was made by
George G. Gummel of the Bethesda
Fire Department and his cousin, Frank
Gummel, who is a member of the AS
sociation of Oldest Inhabitants. The
guns had been brought back from
China and stored at a warehouse in
Fort Myer, the property Of the late
Mai. Gen. Charles F. Humphrey, re-
tired Quartermaster general OF the
Army. He presented them to George
Gummel. who in turn had given them
years ago, along with other similar
firearms, to the Friendship Fire De-
partment in Alexandria with the privi-
lege of dividing the gift later.
Great Wall Defender.
The large so-called "three-man
gum" Gummel told the oldest inhabit-
ants, was one Of many used to de-
fend the Great Wall of China, and
required three men to operate 1t.
Gummel said the gift in reality was
a donation from the Friendship Fire
Department, to which he originally
had presented them. The association
accepted the gifts with a vote of
thanks.

Committee on Hall and Archives and
Marshal Frank W. Bowling reported
that an old door to the engine house,
more than 100 years old had been

through Butte few days ago from
his home in Spokane, where he Is
now successful businessman, on

Hale, hearty and active, ODell
pointed to the celebration of his 18th
birthday on Aug. l. Recently as he
reminisced of his experiences in the
young, wide open town of Butte, a
twinkle came in his eyes, for he had
many incidents to tell of the time when
he freighted cord wood from Yankee
Doodle creek to the Alice and Wake
Up-Jim mine in VAUDEVILLE in 1854.
He also freighted supplies from the
the narrow gauge which ran into Mon
tana from Ogden, to Philipsburg via
Warm Springs, Deer Lodge and Drum
mond. I'VE didn't make any speed rec
ords because we usually camped the
first day at Warm Springs"
O'Dell came to Montana in 1883 from
his native Grand Rapids, Mich, the
trip taking seven days.
On his arrival in Butte he headed up
one of the longest hills he had ever
seen to that time to Walkerville, nest
led on top of the Butte hill. There,
lodgings in the rooming house were at
a premium and he had to spend the
night with the village druggist until
he could continue his trip to Yankee
Doodle gulch to visit his sister.
This veteran knew all of the notables
of the early days, especially Marcus
DAILY and w. A. Clark, who hired him
to transport the cord wood to the
Alice mine
A pail of gloom clouded his florid
face as he stopped smoking his pipe in
Northern Pacific train and told of
his happy wedding day 40 years ago

nine years ago and was buried at Co.

home in Spokane to her grave. This
years he expects to spend the summer
in Columbus visiting with a son and to
be near the burial place of his wife.
His only regret as he alighted from
the train was that he couldn't visit the
places of his first adventures in the
west when he was boy of IS.

That the ideas of Montana farmers
and ranchers on steps to be taken to
solve the states agricultural problems
coincide very closely with the new agri-
cultural conservation program, is torne
out by the accompanying map pre-
pared by H. G.. Bolster, extension land
economist at Montana State college,
from specific recommendations OBJ
tanned this spring at economic confer
ences held in 80 counties in the state.
These meetings were attended by
more than 1850 farmers and others
interested in working out specific rec
concentrations for putting the states
agriculture on sound basis.
The map shows part of the recon-
mendations averaged up by regions
and when the average for the state,
or the IS counties that made specific
recommendations is taken, there is an
even greater resemblance to the agri-
cultural conservation program, Bolster
explained. In fact, the land economist

Bolster also points out that other
recommendations coming out of the
conferences held closely to the con-
servation program. Among them were
controlled grazing, reduction of live
stock numbers until grasses could be
built up, an increase in the acres usu-
ally used for producing feed reserves,
reseeding abandoned lands, crop rota-
ton and strip farming.
While practical farmers and rancherS
predominated at the economic confer
ences there we're also in attendance
bankers, forest service. business, credit
and railroad representatives, Bolster
said The meetings were follow-up on
the district economic conferences held
in 1927 at which time similar recon-
mendationS were made on district
basis. The information gathered in 1927
was brought up to date this year and
much new material was presented be-
fore the final recommendations were
drafted by the conference

office of sheriff has been an index
of the residents of the county down
the years.
Taking his material from old files
In the county clerk and recorders
office, George Pauly, Helena dep
uty clerk, traced the various men
who held the position of sheriff in
Lewis and Clark county, with the
years in office Of each.
Twenty-three different men have
held the office. since the records
began, with Charles NJ. Jeffesis,
who served four two-year terms,
putting in the longest period.
Starting with william L. Steele,
who served in that capacity in 1870
and 1871, the list includes all who
occupied the office from then to
the present.
Following Steel were Patrick Pow
ers, 1872 and 1873, and Seth Bull
lock, 1874 and 1875. Joseph Walker
held the position from 1876 to 1873
and was succeeded by Charles M.

In 1889 Jefferis was reelected to
the position, and this time served
four years. Charles D. Curtis sue
ceeded him in 1893 and 1894 and in
turn was replaced by J. Henry Jur-
gems, who was sheriff in 1895 and

When a 6O-foot iron beam of
5000 pounds weight rolled down a
Butte street a few days ago on two
city trucks the last vestige of one
Of Butte's landmarks, the Empress
theater, passed into history. Moth
once SO closely associated with the
theatrical life of Butte but the
Foundation.
The Empress was built Sc years ago
BY Uncle Dick Sutton, pioneer theatric-
al man of Butte, in honor of his daugh-
ter, Lulu, by whose name it was first
known. Dick Sutton was an oldtime
Missouri engineer who pulled a train
on the Wabash until he turned circus
man and then theatrical manager. He
successfully conducted the Family the
ater, in the Caplice block, southwest
corner of Montana and Park. the Ma
gu1re opera house, which occupied the
9te OF the present Leggat hotel, and
the Broadway, which was first known
Grand and finally as the Broadway
theater.
When the Empress was being put up
Uncle Dick sat on pile of old bricks
Il was built largely of second hand ma
terial-and puffed at his corn cob pipe
each morning until the structure was
completed. Fanny Keller, a bareback
rider in Uncle Dicks circus days and
Lulu Sutton were the co-stars at the
Lulu where Uncle Dick maintained
stock company.
There was lively competition in the
theatrical world when Uncle Dick was
ct Maguire's Grand The Family the
ater had been occupied by company
headed by Charles Alsop. Another COM

on Broadway and built the Pavilion,

could buy out Uncle Dick. The theater
was Uncle Dicks life. The people of
the stage loved the chubby, carelessly
dressed, elderly man with his struggling
mustache and his inevitable cob pipe.
Did an actor or actress come to Butte
without funds there was always an en-
gagement waiting. Orphan children OF
the theatrical world? Uncle Dick took
over several of them and materially
helped them on in life. He reared and
educated two as his very own.
Uncle Dick was particularly kind to
the press and they to him. Every news
writer. every editor had pass. The
late Byron Cooney was for some wears

show, of course" Cooney said. what
for?" Sutton asked innocently. 1--WE

jured in my circus days but the show
always went on" But he closed the
show.
Uncle Dick finally laid down Life's
hands and became the Empress. It was
used for road shows, stock companies
and convention halls. It was there that
a prominent republican lawyer, called
on to make five minute address, spoke
for an hour and a half-and Grabbed

tional Woolgrowers' Association held its
convention there several years ago
and were frozen out. They had to ad-

After lying idle for several years the
Empress was purchased by Lou Rosen:

while there was talk of it's being taken
over by the Montgomery Ward Co., a
fire broke out and ruined it. City Engi-
neer Mike Loughran caused all Of the
ruins except one story of the front Of
the building to be torn down. The TERRA
cleared the rubbish out of the basement
and it became a headquarters fol-
barn yard golfers" Many a ringer
was pitched in the old basement And
then came the present city administra-
ton which set crew to work, tore out
the front, burned out the huge support
ing beam and hauled it down to the city
corral where it will be used for track
for a crane.
The future of the old site is in doubt
City Engineer Floyd Hamill stated a
few days ago that if the owner does
not convert it into use, the city will
make park of it.
