Trouble Over Stock Leads to Murder One Indian Killed and Two Wounded by Prominent Stock Man —Parties Tell Different Stories—Slayer Surrenders to Deputy Sheriff A shooting affray at which an Indian was killed and two others seriously wounded took place Monday on Sage creek, about 20 miles south of Bridger. The trouble that lead to the shooting was caused by the In- dians rounding up stock with the intention of driving them to Prior where they would be held for trespass and their owners as- s3ssed $1 per head. There are two storries told about the trouble. The Indians maintain that the stock was well inside the line of the re- serve while the parties doing the shooting contend that the Indi- ans were driving the stock onto the reserve, making it, possible to get a little more trespass money. It is alleged that the shooting was done from ambush while the Indians were driving the stock through a narrow pass. Elva Other Bull was killed and' Red Star and Peter Paul were wounded. The party doing the shooting after the deed was committed called up the deputy sheriff at Fromberg and gave himself up and asked the deputy to come and get him The Rev. In R.

Great Success The bazaar given by the La- dies Circle on Friday and Satur- day of last week was a howling success, netting the ladies about $219. • The room was provided with booths artistically arranged from which everything conceivable in the bazaar line that would at- tract the eye and get the money was offered for sale—what's more was sold. The refreshment booths, one from which an appetising lunch was erved, the other an ice- cream and cake booth played quite a part in swelling the re- ceipts. This was substantially added to by two side shows which for a clean cut fake equal- ed any . ever perpetrated on the American people. The candy booth and fish pond came in for their part in picking up the nick- els and dimes that assisted ma- terially in swelling the amount to the figure mentioned above. The ladies were rewarded be- yond all expectations and wish to thank all who so generously assisted either by their service or their patronage. The Ladies Circle certainly have made 1910 a good money getting year as they have re- alized nearly $400 on their ef- forts so far this year. Bring your orders for engrav- ed cards to the Tribune.

Valuable Hints About Heating Stoves In recent discussion by some of our best authorities on heat- ing etc., it was unamiously de- cided that since Anthracite coal supply was limited on account of its supply being confined to an area of less than 500 square miles, and that being controlled by a few persons, it would never be cheaper than it is now. Where not already so, soft coal is destined to become the fuel of the people. Owing to the ease by which it can produced it never will become higher in price or will it be controlled by a few persons. Extensive experiments have demonstrated there are nearlY as many heating unites in a ton of soft coal as the re are in a ton of hard, providing that the right kind of heating stoves are used. The Retort Oak stoves was de- cided as being the most econom- ical, and would produce more heat to the pound of cogli on ac- count of its being built on scien- tific principals, that is, the right way is to make the coal into coke, then burn the coke. It being a magazine stove, the coal becomes hot and to the ordinary observer appears to be on fire but is not, and cannot take fire fire until air is admitted. While it is red it is being freed from gases, which is the best part of the fuel, and where the gases can be uttlized the amount of coal required to produce a given , amount of heat produced by the. combustion of these gases will make a great saving in the coal and On the Retort Oak stoves having these principals, it was decided to be the most economi- cal heat producing stove built. But for people who use a mix ed fuel Coal's Hot Blast stove was recommended on account of it being built on the right prin- LOCAL SERVICE OVER BURLINGTON A daylight local service on the Burlington between Billings and Edgemont is one of the possibil- ities of the near future, and it will becomo4 a reality if earnest effort on the part of the Sheri- dan chamber of commerce can accomplish the desired end. The matter was discussed at a meeting of the chamber some weeks ago, and definite action was taken when letters prepared by the secretary were ordered sent to every town on the Bur- lington between the two sta- tions mentioned. Enclosed with each letter was a blank petition which the recipients of the let- ters were requested to circulate for the purpose of securing the signatures of all persons inter- ested. These petitions will be . present- ed to the proper officials of the road and the matter placed be- fore them in such a light as is hoped will resut in favorable ac- tion.- Billings Evening Journal. A barren fresh dill pickles at Gibson Bros.' Farmers' Clubs The Country Life Commission of Montana, consisting of J. H. Durston, editor of the Anaconda Standard; F.S. Cooley, superin. tendent of Farmers' Instute; M. L. Dean, state horticulturist; Mrs. C. E. Conrad of Kalispell and Mrs. Mitchell of Great Falls, in the state, and among the proposed measures is the organ- ization of rural interests in Far- mers' Clubs. Farmers' Clubs, they advocate, would be helpful in every farm community in Montana. By their means farmers and their fami- lies could get together at stated times during the slack season, - enjoy social intercourse, discuss plans and methods for the com- ing seasons' work, receive infor- mation from the ortside, read papers, or enjoy a program of mu:ic or fun, partake of refresh- ments together, and brighten and enlarge the life of every member of the community. They urge that a farm ers' club Le started in each community this fall. Even a half dozen families would find it profitable venture and the more the merrier. The Farmers' Institute will be glad to assist in getting any commun- ity organized. ' Overshoes, shoes for gents, ladies, children and the babies.

Granted At a meeting of the water users of the Two Legging Canal and Improvement Co., held here this afternoon an agreement was reached which will doubtless set- tle the matter of the canal main- tenance for past two years. The . orginal assessment was $2.19 per acre including both years. This the water users thought excessive and employed Attorney Marshall to look into the matter for them. In talking the matter over Messrs. Bair and Shepherd, who represent the interests of the com- pany signified their willingness to meet the patrons of the canal and if possible reach some satis- factory settlement, consequently todays meeting was arranged for. The meeting resulted in a re- duction of 69c per acre to all wacer users and those buying water at $15 per acre was not as- sessed. In addition the water 'users are to have a representa- tive chosen by themselves who shall be conferred with regarding all future improvements on the canal. The agreement was signed by the canal people alsa by all wa- ter users present and the matter will be placed before all patrons for their signature, which it is thought there will be no trouble in securing.
