is developed by a long tunnel or man aolt
for a length OF lois feet. Another upper
tunnel has a length OF some 600 teeJ ana the
top tunnel has a length Of 800 feet. These
tunnels are connected by several raises ana

$500, 900 of high-grade silver ore. Since that
the production was about 10000. The ore

ounces in silver, 40 percent lead, percent

RELATES HISTORY
PEACE TREATY BETWEEN INDIANS
AND UNITED STATES GOV
EMINENT is SUBJECT

The peace conference and the
resultant treaty between the Black
foot and other Indian tribes and
the United States commissioners IN
1855, is the subject TO which sew
eral pages Of the Frontier and Mid
land, regional literary magazine,
are devoted in the issue recently
published The document, which
describes the meetings Of Oct. 1917,
1855, is edited by Albert PartOlb
Montana State university graduate
and assistant instructor in the
school Of journalism.
The treaty which brought peace to
the Indian tribes, was lnstigated by
Gov. Isaac I. Stevens OF Washington
territory. 1t was signed by representa-
tives of the Piegans BloodS, eros Ven
tres, Blackfeet, Nee Perces and Flat
heads.
Parton points out in his introduction
that for the first time in the history
of the west the Indians east OF the
mountains and the Indians west OF
the mountains were to be bound by
a peace Of anity. Warfare was TO be
outlaWed and the western Indians were
to be permitted to hunt buffalo east
Of the mountains without fear OF their
ancient foes of the Blackfoot nation,
who regarded the western Indians as
poachers."
While originally Governor Stevens
had planned to hold the council at
Fort Benton. it was later decided to
hold it at the mouth of the Judith
river.
Partoll's article is replete with notes.
He has made an extensive study Of
western history and has become an
authority on Indian and fur trade his
tory. The speeches Of Governor Stew

troversial issues discussed before the
treaty was finally signed, and the

VOTE BOY READY
 TO RUN IN BIG .AGAWAM RAGE
Classy Field to GO to Post Saturday-Expect
 25,OOO

Springfield, May 27.-Beaten a nose by Mixwell at Suffolk Downs last Tuesday, Tommy Swords Vote Roy is being shipped to Agawam park and has been nominated for the Agawam handicap, six furlings feature of Saturday, and the Me- morial day handicap, chief event of the holidy program.
 The five-year-old bay gelding, which campaigned over this racing tsrip last year, wone none sprint races during 1886, and is one of the most popular tnoroughbreds that has ever legged it over a New Eng land track.
 Approaching top form, as was evil denced by his recent effort at Suf- folk Downs, Vote Boy will be among the favorites to win the Agawam handicap next Saturday, despite the fact that one of the classiest fields that ever balanced to a starting barrier is expected to shoot for the $1 ,000 purse.
 Nominations do not close until to- night, and Recing Secretary Ty Shea will not announce the weights until tomorrow, but 8 brilliant field is already assured, and it would be no surprise if at least 10 thor oughbreds parade to the post on the biggest day Agawa mpark has ever known.
 Nominations already in the hands of Shea include S. Panarella'S Bub- blesome, which wheeled to victory in 1:11 at 'Gansett last week; L. H Nimkoff's Beefsteak; E. Calhoun's Ashen, winner of the Texas derby; George Mohr's Bob's Boy, con- queror of Seabiscut; Mrs. E. H. Wade's honest Up and Up; w. El- der Johnson's Master Lad; w. H. Denham's Little Argo; J. J. Meehan's Patsy Begone; Joe Gorgas Marson A. L. Moore.s Black Boo; c. Man. ley's Jim Corn, and Phil Schwartz Richstrike and San Marine.
 They may not be favorite on the pari-mutuel board, but the Phil Schwartz entry of Richstrike and San Marine will be carrying the colors of Connecticut in the open ing day feature, and a victory for one or the other would be one of the most popular wins ever record ed here.
 Post time will be 2:15; the daily double will be decided on the first two races; the Waite improved camera will shoot the finishes; eight races will be on the card, ranging from five furlongs to a mile and one-sixteenth; and 25,00O horse-lov- CTS will unloose a ull-throated roar come Saturday afternoon.

Pittsburgh, May 27-UP0 - If you turned newspapermen for day and had your choice of these three intriguing subjects for an imperish- able essay, which one would you take?
 1. The efforts of George Jacobus, P. c. 4. president, to become the Hitler MuSsoliI1i- -Mustapha Renal of professional golf in three mail order lessons, a double-breaSted piar of knickers, one flight up and get banjo.
 2. Somebody's brain child in the form of a style show, which will de- termine the best-dressed golfer in the world, and what of 1t?
 3. United States patent No. 11457963, a combination permanent waver, pipe cleaners, safety deposit box, and golf ball compressor.
 This was the problem that con- fronted me today, and while I am a man of steel in a crisis, I'll have to admit I was befuddled, bewitched and bewildered.
 High Halter
 Somebody, I knew, ought to take a crack at Jacobus and the muzzle he has placed on professional golf players. He hit freedom of speech a paralyzing body blow here two days ago whne he gagged "Wild Bill" Mehlhorn, the pericles of the putters. Mehlhorn, straight shoot CT from the mouth as well as the tee, offered an unsolicited opinion that Sam Snead should have been penalized 8 couple of strokes for picking up a ball on the green. The causis belli is quite unimportant but Mehlhorn's words will live after him, specially the crack that the P. G. A. tournament is a "tiddleywinks tournament where the rules are made up as the boys go along"
 Jacobus is the gent I wish to swing on. The second he heard Wild Bills" words he and his cab- inet repaired into the portable No. 10 Downing street he carries to all tournaments, and ordered that Mehlhorn publicly apologize upon threat of being waived out of the league. Mehlhorn had no choice. After all, he's golfer and if he were dismissed from the lodge he would probably have to turn to hores-shoeing, short order cooking, or watch repairing. And he has shown no aptitude at these arts.
 Brother Jacobus should take time off from his dictator ling to study one of the amendments to the con- stitution of the United states-the

FAN SENTIMENT MAY BRING OUT
 GOOD SOLUTION
Managers of Hearts and TOmlnlies NOn=C COfilmittaI;
 DOran, Fill Lead Eaters

Though the result of their regu- larly scheduled games on Sunday with City Amateur league opponents may make a difference, Managers Ray Tram of the Sacred Hearts and Harry Melvin are believed to be unconcerned about the time when their teams will meet in a replay ot game postponed last Sunday be- cause of heavy rain. In the mearl- time, considerable sentiment has de- veloped whereby the game could be played at the end of the season, as sort of added attraction" based upon the assumption, which is safe enough at this writing that the Hearts and Thomas Club will be at or near the top of the loop, and the result of the playof game will be all-important and worthy of patronage of 10000 fans at the Hamilton Park diamond.
 Uncertain
 Officially, President Ed Fitz- patrick will set the time of the game, and his word is final. Memo rial Day was at first proposed, but many c. A. L. fans will be out of town on that day. A twilight game has been thought of, as had a dou- ble-header on some Sunday, but one would not attract too many fans due to the time of day, and the other idea would nuss up the league schedule.
 As the matter stands now, the
 game may be played toward the
 end of the first round, on or
 about June 6 as twilight at-
 traction at Hamilton Park, ac-
 cording to MT. Fitzpatrick.
 On Sunday, the Tribunes and North End Thomas Club play the feature game at Hamilton Park, at 3:30 o'clock, with Leno Costaldo and Arnold Polancer as umpireS. At 1:3O o'clock, the Brooklyn A. c. and Sacred Hearts are to cross bats with the Washington Hills and Recrea- tions on the No. l diamond at that time in the other league game. Cos taldo has been assigned to umpire the Brooklyn-H game with Dick Tuckey to arbitrate the Washington Hills and Recreations tuSSle.
 Best Eaters
 Paul Doran's zoo batting average is still very much the tops since last Sunday, when he was denied a chance to add or detract from it while Mickey Fill of the Hearts has moved into second place automat- icaly when Joe Joyce hit but one in six last Sunday, Joe Rossi of the Recs is third with 800 and his team is second in team batting though they have yet to win a game. Malins of the Hearts and Vaughn of the Brooklyfis top the pitchers with two wins apiece, while Bob Grady has marked up 30 strikeouts, an average of ten each game to date.
