YEAR Sc THE COPY Brother Van Delivefs Eulogy at Funeral of Thos. Clary, Pioneer Father of Roy E Clary, of Long Investment Company, Is Buried at Great Falls, the Services Being Attended by Large Number of Montana Notable Citizens The funeral of the late Thomas Clary, father of Roy E. Clary, secre- tary of the Long Investment Co. of this place, was held in the city of Great Falls Tuesday afternoon. The death of Mr. Clary from the effects of injuries received in the stock train wreck at Rugby, N. D., elicited many messages of condolence to the bereaved from pioneer residents of Montana. The services were at- tended by a large number of Mon- tana's most prominent citizens. The following eulogy was pro- nounced by Rev. W. W. Van Orsdel, himself a pioneer he deceased, Thomas Clary, was born at St. Louis, Mo. December 5, 1842. His parents died in his in- fancy. He came from St. Louis to Fort Benton in June, 1862. From there he went to Bannock, where he engaged in mining for about a year. Then he became wagon master for the Diamond R Transportation company. In November, 1874, he was married to Miss Mary Ford at Sun River, where they resided until 1887. Previous, to this time he had entered extensively in' the stock business. At this time he moved to Fort Benton They had four children; two of them, Miss Genev- ieve and Roy are living, and two of them have passed on before. \In 1892 he was elected county commissioner of Chouteau county, which office he filled for four years, In 1896 he was elected sheriff of the same county, which office he held two ternui. In 1903 he moved to Great Fails where he has since re- sided. \He was a pioneer of the pioneers, coming to this new territory in the early days of its history, when It took some energy and courage. He was one of the few heroes who dared and did; one of those who associated themselves together in those trying days of the vigilantes when there was but little law and order; when life and property were not safe. They brought order out of ce9fusion; made life and property safe, and thus laid thls• foundation for good citizenship and society in what has become this great corn - The Pioneer Bank The Largest Bank in Fergus County The Oldest Bank in Forgus County Should direct the man looking fora strong bank TWENTY-TWO YEARS of safe, conservative banking through good times and hard times is our record We Cordially Invite Your Account Bank of Fergus County Lewistown, Montana Established 1887 STANFORD . ] Half Way Between Shelby Junction and Billings The City of DESTINY Catch the Idea?

Words that I might say are empty, and may not long be remem- bered in the presence of such a life, so full of deeds of valor. \How beautiful are the flowers and so appropriate. They, being natural, will fade, but those heroic acts will live on. Life with him was no sham, but something real. \We are put in remembrance of the uncertainty of life. Apparent ease and security is often the thin veil that hides the approaching danger. The train of cars moves along its track with great rapidity, but suddely there is a crash, when that which appeared to be secure is a wreck. How changed the scene. The stout, strong man rises in the mining and goes forth from his home to his vocation. Suddenly the main spring of life gives way and he is borne home in the arms of strong men. We are thus put in remembrance of the injunction given by our Savior \Be ye there- fore ready also, for ye know not the day nor the hour, when the son of man cometh.' \He was a most devoted husband, a loving father, a good neighbor and friend to all. His unselfish life was manifest in one of his last acts; when they were about to remove him from the wreck he asked them to assist the others first\. More Land Records Yesterday the Great Falls land office beat all previous records, there being 112 homestead entries filed. The previous beet record was October 30, when the homestead entries numbered 107—but Novem- ber 9th went 5 better. For the past three days, up to last night, the homestead entries in the Great Falls land office number- ed 264.—Great Falls Leader, Nov. 10. LOCAL AND PERSONAL J. P. Heck and workmen are in Wind- ham this week, erecting the new bank building there. Paul Soelch was a passenger on the north bound train Friday, enroute to Con- rad, where, he said he might locate perm- anently. A train load of beef cattle was shipped from the Stanford yards Tiesday to the Chicago market. The beef was the prop- erty of Perry Westfall and Girard Burgess. Among the improvements recently made by Host Baumgartner at the Hotel Stan- ford is the instililation of a new Balke- Collander pool tableind a $500 National cash register in the bar. C. A. McAllister, who for several months was stenographer for the real estate firm of Plumb & Wilson at this place, was in Stanford Wednesday and departed that day for Oka, Meagher county, near which place he has a valuable tract of land for which he will shortly receive patent from Uncle Sam, under the provisions of the homestead law. C. E. Shoemaker, of C. E. Shoemaker & Company, of Lewistown, accompanied by U. A. Blomgren, one of Lewistown's most popular young men, at present having charge of the office for Mr. Shoemaker, was among those from onto( town in Stanford on Tuesday, having been on a tour of in- spection of the .northern part of the county. These gentlemen were the guests of the Hotel Stanford over night, and re- turned to the county seat the following day. Being gentlemen of discernment, their assertion that the country is all right Is worthy of repetition, and with pleasure we state that they included Stanford in the benediction. , S. C. Ball, of Stanford, and Hilda Kras- key, of Denton, were married at the M. E. parsonage Wednesday evening by the Rev. Dimmick. A number of friends wit- nessed the ceremony. They will make their home on the groom's ranch near Stanford.... Frank Mitchell wes in the city yesterday from Stanford and says that the big prairie are out in the Denton country will entail a hardship on several new settlers in that section of the county. Frank has Just closed a deal for fifteen hundred acres of his fine ranch near Stanford, receiving a fancy price for the land, lie says that the day is rapidly ap- proaching when all the big tracts in that section will be cut up into small farms nnd that when that day comes, Stanford will set a pace in growing which no other burg ha the state will be able to follow.— Feinlus CeUntv Democrat.

Frank E. Smith has been selected as de- fendant's counsel, and it is under- stood - the plea will be insanity. The case of the state against Jas. Gass, who killed Thomas King, near here on the 30th day of October, will be the next case heard. An information has been filed direct in the district court. The trial of Gass may bring out some startling de- velopments, for there are those who believe that Frazier, when removed from fear, and under the protection of the court, will tell more about the case than he -admitted knowing when testifying before the coroner's jury.

Johnny and His Gun Deputy Sheriff Charles Whitcomb pulled off a marathon stunt Sunday evening which entitles him to wear Longboat colors. After disarming one John Harris and getting him in sight of the jail, the architecture of the bastile seemed to displease the gentleman, *No took to the prairie, with Charlie second at the half, but running easy; he overtook him at the two-mile post. John drew a lemon In the form of 25 days In jail for his prize. LOCAL AND PERSONAL F. W. Mitchell will return to the city to- day after a week's absence. Spent in Lewistown and Great Falls. Alfred Chester of Great Falls, has ac- cepted a position In the buffet of the Hotel Stanford during the absence of Frank Smith. who at present is visiting in Chicago. I. W. Gilmore, Joseph B. Hardenbrook and Pearl S. Gilmore, prominent ranch - men of the Louse creek bench, were In Stanford yesterday and transacted Im- portant business before the local U. S. commissioner. Lally & Wentworth have taken the con- tract of Butler & Woodworth for the erec- tion of the dwelling house being built by that firm on First avenue north. Under the supervision of Mr. Lally the work Is progressing rapidly and the house will prove an attractive addition to the city's residences Judge Homer Detrick of Moore was in Stanford on Tuesday accompanied by land buyers who are figuring on invest- ing in the Long Investment company's land near this town. Judge Detrick is very popular in Stanford and his visits are made pleasant by the warm welcome he receives. The Culligan minstrels at the Mitchell & Packard. opera house on Monday even- ing were greeted with a capacity audience, which In the vernacular of the show business ate It up. The minstrels were the first of the kind to make their appear- ance in new Stanford, and consequently attracted more than ordinary attention. Mr. Culligan has succeeded In getting to. a troupe of performers that do him credit. For years this gentleman has been in the minstrel managerial line. Several years ago he rnade a great success of the famous Roscoe & Holland Georgia Min- strels, which made many tripe to Mon- tana, and were always greeted with large houses. The Culligan minstrels appear this year AS second to no minstrel organ- ization that over appeared In the Montana section and they richly deserve the flat- tering patronage. The strange part of the end men with this show is that they have succeeded In digging up new jokes. which one would think by this time was next to Impossible. The band and or- chestra furnished some good music. and from the moment that the curtain went up at the opera house Monday night not a minute passed but that was filled with music and fun. The juggling act.. special vaudeville feature, was the beet ever seen here. George Baker Continues to Uunearth Good Ore Near City of Stanford As Depth Is Reached the Indications Point to Highly Mineralized Copper Zone Above this City Which Will Yet Astonish the Mining World George E. Baker, than whom there has been none more constant in the belief that above Stanford lies hidden beneath the peaks of the Little Belt mountains it veritable Eldorado, was in the city recently and exhibited in the office of the World some ore specimens taken front an eight foot vein uncovered on the ground of the M. & M. claim. An enclitic shaft is being sunk by Mr. Baker and as the depth in- creases the ore increases in Mineral value, anti shows a larger percent- age of copper. One specimen exhibited by Mr. Baker was from the same ore shoot as another which the assayer's re- turns showed 26 percent copper, with lead and silver which brought its total up to the point where it was too valuable for coarse ship- ment, and when sent to the smelter it will all have been sacked. Work Is being pushed with a com- mendable vigor and when more de- velopment work has been accom- plished, and the extent of the vein more fully determined, if present indications do not greatly belie the true state of things, the property now receiving the attention of Mr. Baker and associates will jump in- to the producing class with a repu- tation that will attract mining men to this section with a stampede. Mr. Baker is reluctant to furnish to the press information as to his intentions, and has feared that were the facts Os to the mineral zone into which he is putting his ' time and money, made known by him, they would be discounted and the impression go forth that he was preparing to dispose of his holdings. In justice to the gentle- man it should be here stated that publications of mining news from this section is in no manner abetted by him, and that he is neither buy - Mg nor seeking to sell mineral ground. There is no longer doubt in the minds of those familiar with the territory that Stanford will in duet time become an ore shipping point. INTEREST Is the greatest inc•entive towards saving money.
