Page overview

An interior page of The Anaconda Standard for Thursday, August 24, 1916, mixing local news, sports results, theatrical advertising, and retail display ads. The page is densely laid out in seven columns, with a large Margaret Theater advertisement dominating the left margin and Copper City / Majestic range advertisements occupying the far right. Editorial content runs through the middle columns, covering local AOH convention results, a juvenile baseball victory, a road accident, local briefs, and wire dispatches including a note on peace overtures and a report from White Sulphur Springs. Tone throughout is brisk and matter-of-fact, typical of a small-city daily's inside news page.

Miss Sutton is just as charming and vivacious as ever and with capable assistance she presented a really clever little farce. Von Dell made very acceptable music on several instruments and was equally versatile in his impersonations of great musicians. The Bunch brothers had a unique stage setting which brought them in favor with the audience even before their act had commenced. The Gartelle brothers were a funny pair on roller skates, who well deserved the roars of laughter which greeted their antics even if they were somewhat of the slap-stick variety. The Millard Clay Trio were melodious, harmonious and entertaining all at the same time. Jules and Frances also boasted an unusual stage setting. Fun all day, W. O. W. picnic next Sunday. Washoe park, Anaconda. --- # Once More Obtains Respite In Shadow of the Chair Rochester, N. Y., Aug. 23.—Charles F. Steilow, who recently was saved from the death chair by a narrow margin on an order to show cause why a new trial should not be granted him on the charge of murdering Charles Phelps and Margaret Wolcott in West Shelby, March 21, 1915, received further respite today when hearing to show cause was adjourned until the last week in September. Since the issuance of the show cause order, Erwin King, who is serving a sentence at Albion for a minor offense, has confessed to the West Shelby murders and the new fight for Steilow is based largely on this confession, notwithstanding the fact that it was later repudiated by King. --- ### FINANCIERS ARE STUNG. Chicago, Aug. 23.—Ten thousand bees, liberated in La Salle street, Chicago's financial district, today stung a score of people and sent brokers, clerks and messengers hurrying to cover. The bees were being carried in a case when a youth bumped into a man holding them, causing him to stumble and smash the case. --- ### NINE CAUGHT BY FIRE. North Bay, Ontario, Aug. 23.—Six children and three adults are believed to have lost their lives from brush fires at Mackenzie, according to reports received today.

Standard Publishing company. ## Column 4 # GOODFRIEND JUVENILES WIN BY EASY MARGIN ## BUNCH OF ERRORS BY MACRAE TEAM IN FIRST INNING ENOUGH TO TOSS GAME. The Goodfriend team of the Commercial league won an easy victory on the common last night, the MacRaes being defeated, 9 to 1. The winners scored four right off the reel on three hits and a sad jumble of errors. Dyer pitched a good game and should have had a shutout in this inning with any kind of support. He allowed no more runs until the fifth,—when an error was followed by two hits for one counter. In the seventh, with the game hopelessly lost, he allowed three hits after two errors had put him in a tight place, and four more runs were scored. MacRaes found Oldhaber for only two hits, one a scratch to the first baseman in which the batter was called winner of a close race for the bag, and the other a two bagger to right that fell safe when two fielders showed mutual courtesy in stepping aside from a fly. The batter went to third on an infield out and scored on the pitcher's juggle of a bounding drive. The score: **GOODFRIEND.** **AB. R. H. PO. A.

Lord Robert's statement was made in response to a question in regard to the "peace rumors" and the situation in the Balkans. "No overtures have been made for peace," said Lord Robert. "There is only one way in which overtures for peace could be made and that is from an enemy to the government of this country. If such overtures were made the first thing we should do would be to consult with our allies." As to the Balkans, Lord Robert said the most important factor consisted of the operations from Salon[i?]ki. The allies' relations with the new Greek government, he stated, were thoroughly satisfactory. --- # State Troops to Receive Back Pay That Is Due San Antonio, Texas, Aug. 23.—A fund of $750,000 has been made available by the war department for the payment of state troops on duty along the border. General Funston said today the amount would be sufficient to pay guardsmen for their services up to and including the month of July. Some of the state troops have considerable back pay due them. General Funston explained that the delay was caused by the failure of the army appropriation bill to pass. --- # Anaconda Band Goes Serenading Old Friends The Anaconda band last night visited the homes of several of the heads of departments at the smelter and serenaded them. A number of selections were played at the corner of Park and Main before the visiting was begun, and the Standard office and the home of A. J.

J. B. Gnose and Frank Hazelbaker made arrangements to take the Anaconda band to the Deer Lodge Valley Farmers' association picnic today and the musical organization will leave the city this morning on an auto truck to do its share toward entertaining the big crowd that is expected to take in the festivities at Race Track. Special trains are to be run to the picnic grounds from Butte, Anaconda and other points and the Anaconda people can make the necessary connections by leaving the city on the 7:40 train this morning. A special round trip fare of $1.20 has been granted by the railroads. Gov. Sam V. Stewart and a number of notables will address the crowds and dancing and sports will furnish the merriment. --- # Will Try Carrier Pigeons For Messages to Mexico Columbus, N. M., Aug. 25.—Carrier pigeons are the latest recruits to the United States army on the border. Fifty flyers donated by the American Carrier Pigeon association to the U. S. signal corps branch at Columbus are en route. It is said the recruits are all racing birds. When the birds have become accustomed to their new quarters, it is proposed to take a number of them to Mexico and dispatch them in a line for Columbus. Atmospheric conditions on the border have been found to render both the ground and wireless telegraph unreliable. The use of the pigeon will, therefore, be given a thorough trial. --- # Myers' Bill Favorable To the Senate Committee Special Dispatch tot the Standard. Washington, Aug. 23.—The senate public lands committee today favorably reported Senator Myers' bill providing that settlers on the ceded portion of the Fort Peck reservation who have entered less than 320 acres may make additional entries of sufficient land to bring their total holdings to that acreage, taking non-contiguous land where no land adjoining their original entries is available. The committee also favorably reported Senator Myers' bill providing that the state of Montana may make selection of other lands in lieu of section 16 of the Huntley irrigation project. Inadvertently the settlers made entry on the state land and cannot get title except by state legislation. The Myers bill will give them title and at the same time reimburse the state for its loss. --- Bring your families and picnic baskets to the W. O. W. picnic next Sunday, Washoe park, Anaconda.

It does more than quench thirst, it restores and maintains both bodily and mental energy. But the only way to test our beer is to taste it. Let your dealer send you a case. **Anaconda Brewing Co.** --- [boxed advertisement] # CANDIDATES ATTENTION The laws prohibit a saloon campaign, and that is "bad practice" anyway. The modern way to solicit votes at the primary is to insert an announcement in the daily newspaper. The Standard offers you the very best means of acquainting the voters with the fact that you are a candidate at the primary election to be held next Tuesday. Your time is limited, so get busy now and prepare an advertisement. **THE STANDARD** --- **Standard Want Ads Bring Quick Results** ## Peripheral items - Column 1, top (spans columns 1–2): Margaret Theater advertisement, "Another Great Hippodrome Road Show," seven acts, two shows tonight (7:30 and 9:15), prices 25c, [3?]5c and 50c. - Column 1: "Where to Eat" panel with the Broiler Cafe (22 Main street, C.
