SENATOR CLAM, AT 4, SIMS BUTTE CROE70 AT CHURCH ViliglICH HE HELPED TO ESTABLOSH One evening recently Senator W. A. Clark, Montana's wealthiest citi- zen and a power in the copper in- dustry of the world, talked to the congregation of the Mountain View Methodist church of Butte, which he helped to establish 40 years ago. At 80 years of age, Senator Clark Is still strong and vigorous, He spoke for more than an hour, telling something of early day Butte and something of the European war, which he saw at close range in Paris In the beginning of the world combat in 1914. One incident Of interest was Senator Clark's account of his trip across the English channel in .the American gunboat Tennessee at a time when it was bel'eved Paris was about to be captured by the Ger- mans. 'When this war is over,\ declared Senator Clark, \no nation will dare to attack the United States and no nation will have reason to for the settlement will be such as to do away with all cause for war again among civilized people.\ Senator Clark was the principal speaker at the monthly patriotic ser- vice, which this time fell on the fourth anniversary of the invasion of Belgium and the declaration of war by Great Britain upon the kaiser'a government. Senator Clark was in- troduced as a member of the first board of trustees of the first church in Butte—the Mountain View church. Senator Clark sketched briefly his connection with the early history of Butte leading up to his participa- tion in the movement to build the first church. He told of the decline of the camp in the late sixties after the exhaustion of the placers and said that when he came to Butte for the first time in 1872 he found wily seven or eight persons here. lit , came here again, he said, in 1875, when gold-bearing quartz was disco\ ored. Ile told of the founding ei the Dexter and Centennial mills in 1876-7 and the rapid expansion and growth of the camp at that time. Trustees Appointed \In 1878 the need was felt for a place of worship in Butte and an or- ganization for the building of a church—the first one in the camp, if I remember rightly—was formed. A I board of trustees, of which I was al member, was appointed. We were named, not because of our piety, but because it was believed we could get' things done. I went to New York to arrange for the building of the church. This first structure was af- terwards destroyed by fire. The present building is the third on this site.\ Passing from his connection with the first church in Butte to the major topic of his experiences in France at the outbreak of the world war, Sena- tor Clark said that he first went to France 39 years ago and had adopted there, e re custom of spending his summers Had Chateau on Seine \I had a chateau on the Seine, 18 mile4 southeast of Paris among peo- ple whom I came to know well and to love fervently. I was in Paris in the summer of 1914 when we first heard of a movement on the part of the German army stealing its way Into Belgium. In a short time the entire French army was moving to- ward the frontier. Then came the news of the devastating advance of the Germans, destroying cities and desecrating churches in Belgium and engaging in all the varieties of devil- ish work that have characterized their conduct down to this day. Moratorium ikvlared \About this time a moratorium was declared and the Americans and other foreigners in Prance found it possible to got only small amounts on their letters of credit. A com- mittee of 100 Americans, of which I was one, was appointed by Ambas- sador Myron T. Herrick to provide relief for Americans who found themselves stranded. Every day we met at the embassy to hear the pleas of our distressed countrymen and to find ways to help them. Then, as the Germans seemed bound to sweep on to the very gates of Paris, Mr. Herrick issued a proclamation ad- vising all Americans to leave the country. I moved into Paris, and after getting permission to pass through the war zone we motored to Havre and embarked after a day's wait, on the gunboat Tennessee for England. I went back to Paris later for 10 days to move my effects out of the country. At that time bombs wore being dropped in the city, but the people were not excited. Airplanes Needed \Then I returned to the land which, above all others, we love— and next to that, beautiful France. And now our own country—perhaps a little late, but it is no use to criti- cize—has thrown itself with all its might into the conflict. \The only thing lacking now is air- planes, and I know that our good fellow citizen, Mr. Ryan, will Bee that need is soon supplied. We have every confidence in our soldiers over there. We will soon have another million or two over there, and later on still another million or two. And we will keep sending millions over until we drive tho lion out of beau- tiful Franco and martyred Belgium.\ CUSTER'S ORDERLY BILLINGS CITIZEN JOHN BUREMAN SADDLED THE GENERAL'S HORSE ON MORN- ING OF LAST BATTLE Aged Soldier Has Just Received from Mrs. Custer Several Interesting Relics of Famous Soldier Who Lost Ms Life on Banks of the Little Big Horn. John Burkman, a resident of Bil- lings for nearly a quarter of a cen- tury, is one of the last living sur- vivors of the Seventh cavalry, United States army, as it was made up June 25, 1876, the day when Custer and his command were wiped out on the banks of the Little Big Horn by the Sioux. Burkman saddled General Custer's horse the morning of the battle, hav- ing' been orderly for Cuiter for six years. Last week Burkman received from Mrs. Elizabeth B. Custer, widow of General Custer, several mementoes of the famous cavalry leader. These consist of a brass button from the general's dress uniform, a bit of his red woolen necktie, r photograph of General Custer at the ago of 25, when he was an officer in the Civil war: and a picture taken on the oc- casion of the unveiling of a Custer monument in Michigan In 1910. Burkman was 37 years old at the time the Custer battle was fought. Today he is 79. He is still in excel- lent health and has a clear recollec- tion of all the events that led up to the disaster on the Little Big Horn. Burkman was born in Pennsylva- nia in 1839. At the outbreak of the Civil war he enlisted in the Missouri Volunteer infantry, fighting for some time and afterward engaging as a government teamster. In Septem- ber, 1870, he enlisted in the Seventh cavalry, which had been ()ranked during the Civil war in 1866 with Colonel Sam Sturgis In command and Custer as lieutenant colonel. Short- ly after enlisting, Burkman was made orderly to Custer, and he held the position until his chief was killed with companies of his regiment. Story of Battle The regiment was in three divi- sions, Captain Benteen being In charge of companies H, D and K; Major Reno having companies A, M and 0; and Custer taking companies I, C, C, F and E. Captain McDou- gal, with company B, accompanied the pack train. Leaving the Yellow- stone river, the troop marched up the Rosebud 72 miles, making their last camp on the present site of the In- dian school. There, after saddling Custer'e charge; for the last time, Burkman was orderel to remain with the pack train, which contained Cus- ter's personal belongings. It was due to this that be escaped being killed In the engagement which followed, The story of the Custer fight is known to every school boy. Having reached the divide between the Rose- bud and the Big Horn, Custer saw Sioux scouts observing his command. He decided to attack the Indian vil- lage at once. Captain Benteen was ordered to move up the Big Horn several miles above the village in order to cut the Indians off from the Big Horn mountains. Reno was ordered to move straight ahead, cross the river above the village and at- tack It from the south. Custer was to support Reno's attack by a flank drive on the village. Benteen fol- lowed his course for some time and finally was forced out of it by the ruggedness of the country and fell into the trail of Reno. Reno, mean- while, had gone ahead as ordered, passing down the face of the bluffs and across the river into the valley above the village. Here, encounter - leg the enemy, he deployed. The Indians attacked him in force and checked him. Reno did not charge the village, as ordered, but retired to a strip of timber along the river, where he dismounted his men and stood his ground for some time. Then growing fainthearted, he retreated precipitately to the steep bluffs of the east bank, permitting his troops to become disorganized and panic- stricken in the movement and suf- fering heavy loss. The Sioux who wore opposing him, on seeing him retreat, hurried northward across the river to join those who w: , re just starting the attack on Custer Attacks Relying on Reno's vigorous coop- eration, and not knowing that the latter had been attacked and retreat- ed, Custer deployed for an atta.7.1: and went forward. In the bro ten and precipitous hills bordering the east bank of the river, he was immediate- ly assailed by practically all of the Indians of the immense camp at once. Opposed to him in their des- perate attack were the Sioux stream- ing up from Reno's front as well as by those on the east side. His strug- gle could not have lasted long. 11 , 3 was overwhelmed and wiped out All the Indians then retnrned to the attack on Reno, who had mean- while been joined by Benteen and McDougall. With McDougall and his pack train was Burkman. The Indians held these seven troops close- ly besieged until the evening of the following day, when, evidently aware of the approach of General Terry up the valley, they raised the siege and retreated toward the Big Ilorn mountains. With Custer died 12 officers, 191 enlisted non and four civilians. Reno lost three officers, 48 men and five civilians and scouts killed, and 69 wounded, of whom seven died on the field. I3urkman continued with the rem- nant of his troop until 1879, when he was given an honorable discharge at Fort Laramie. From that time on until 1895, when he retired from active work, he held various govern- ment positions. In the evening of life he is happy and in good health. Hint at Peace Austrian newspapers, copies of which have reached Rome, contain hints that, as a result of the failure of the Austrian offensive on the Piave and the German offensive on the Marne, an attempt at new peace maneuvers will be made shortly. Hide Submarine boast's The German naval authorities, in an effort to hide submarine losses, have ordered that notices of deaths of members of the crews must omit the fact that they were members of (1 -boat crews unless lose of submar- ine itself has been announced.

A Request There has been a large number of hail losses reported during the last two weeks and while most of these have shown a considerable degree of damage sustained, there has been some that upon examination failed to show sufficient loss to justify a claim. Now these \no loss\ claims cost just as much in time and money to inspect as where the damage is severe and it is almost impossible to obtain competent adjusters at this time. When we receive a large number of claims we are obliged to go to considerable extra expense and trouble regardless of whether or not the claims are worth while, and this condition will be reflected in the assessment. This is the farmers' own company and we would request that you bear the above facts in mind both as regards your own crop and your neighbors. We desire every farmer to get the full measure of loss he sustains if it is of any consequence, but we do not want him to pay for any unnecessary expense.
