[box, spans columns 2-3] # ANACONDA DEPARTMENT OF THE BUTTE MINER ## Column 1 # FIND REAL REASON FOR LA SALLE'S FEAR ## Fishermen Discover Why He Was So Anxious About Companion's Safety. Anaconda Bureau. J. Kane Murphy is authority for the story that is being told this week at the expense of Leo LaSalle. Leo acted as butler for the party composed of Hugh J. Maguire, M. R. Hoyle, Mr. Murphy and himself during a recent outing in the Madison valley, and as on former like occasions, acquitted himself with honor. The incident related by Mr. Murphy happened after the return of the party from a tour of the Yellowstone park. In order to secure a few days of good fishing it was decided to go to the Hutchen ranch. Late one afternoon Messrs. Maguire and Hoyt slipped on their hip boots, assembled their poles and tackle and started for a certain spot where the fish were reported to be biting. When they failed to return at 7 o'clock, Mr. LaSalle began to get nervous, and as soon as it became dark, he voiced his fears for the safety of the two to Mr. Murphy. The latter assured his companion that both were experienced woodsmen and there was absolutely no need to fear for their safety. Mr. LaSalle, however, became more nervous as the time slipped by and the pair failed to appear. He was just on the point of organizing a search party and starting out to look for them when Maguire and Hoyt walked into the lodge. They had got tangled up in a beaver dam, and had been forced to detour to reach the cabin. Just before retiring some one told them of the fright their absence had given LaSalle and in view of the interest shown by that individual, they decided to thank him before going to bed. LaSalle was just crawling into his blankets when they approached him. "We want to thank you, old man, for the worry we gave you tonight," one of them remarked. "We appreciate your interest, but there was absolutely no cause to fear on our account." "The dickens there wasn't," was LaSalle's retort. "That was my basket Maguire was wearing, and while I cared for the basket, the last prescription I have was folded up in the bottom." # COPPER CITY LACONICS ### RAMBLERS DEFEAT STARS. Anaconda Bureau. In a juvenile contest played Tuesday afternoon on the city common, the Park Street Ramblers defeated the Anaconda All Stars by a score of 29 to 6. The winning battery was composed of Flick, Kirley and Krazan, while Davidson and Harper worked for the All Stars. ### RENEWS ACQUAINTANCES. Frank O'Brien, special agent for the B. A. & P. railway in Butte, spent Tuesday in the city renewing acquaintances.

"Mollie" Baker, one of the famous old Anode baseball team, who is playing with the American Legion team in Missoula this summer, is spending several days in the city visiting friends. "Mollie" was out of the game the greater part of last season on account of a broken ankle, but the injury has completely healed and he is playing the game of his life this summer. At the present time he is second highest man on the batting list of the Missoula City league. ### OLD-TIME RESIDENT ILL. Joseph McCaffery, old-time resident of Anaconda, has been confined to his home on Cherry street for more than a week by illness. His condition was reported as showing improvement Tuesday. ### TOUR OF YELLOWSTONE.

Invitations for the annual high school Alumni association dance to be held at Washoe park pavilion Friday, [advertisement: Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound] # Women Continually Overdo This applies to all women regardless of caste or color. The ambitious girl striving for school honors, the overworked housewife, the shop girl, girls in offices and stores, and the society woman, all climb too high, overtax their strength, and what follows? Nervous prostration, sleeplessness, backache, headaches, and the inevitable weakness and ailments peculiar to their sex soon develop which, unless checked, bring on more serious conditions, and which often lead to operations. An efficient restorative for such ailments is Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, which is now recognized from coast to coast as a standard remedy for woman's ills.—Adv. ## Column 2 [the headline of the Anaconda convention story, set in italic display type, spans columns 2-3] # *Ancient Order Hibernians and Auxiliary Order Meet in Annual State Assembly* Anaconda Bureau. With every lodge in the state represented the Ancient Order of Hibernians and its associate order, the Ladies' Auxiliary, convened Tuesday in Anaconda for the anual [sic] state convention. The local committee on arrangements had everything in readiness for the visiting delegates, and there were no delays in starting the program. Tuesday morning the delegates of both organizations and Anaconda members of the orders marched to St. Paul's church, where high mass was celebrated by the Rev. John Connelly of St. Ann's hospital. A sermon, especially appropriate for the occasion was delivered by the Rev. Dennis P. Meade of Philipsburg. Father Meade selected "Hibernianism" as his subject and handled it in an entertaining and masterful manner. He explained the origin of the movement and detailed its progress and attainments down to the present tfme [sic]. Following the mass a recess was held for luncheon, following which the first business session of the Hibernians was called to order in the A. O. H. hall, while the members of the Ladies' Auxiliary convened in the Knights of Columbus building. ### Address By Mayor. In a brief address Mayor James B. McCavitt welcomed the delegates to Anaconda and presented them with the keys to the city. Speaking for State President Caplice, who was unable to be present Tuesday, Vice State President Charles Reagan, responded. T. J. Kelly of Anaconda, and one of the best known Hibernians in the state, delivered the official address of welcome to the delegates and visitors. The afternoon's session was occupied in the appointing of committees and the transacting of routine matters. Among the delegates present are Charles Reagan, vice state president of Great Falls; James F. Duffy, state secretary of Anaconda; J. M. Brown, state secretary of Butte; the Rev. D. P. Meade, state chaplin [sic] of Philipsburg and the Rev. M. M. McCormick, state chairman of Irish history, of Butte. Silver Bow county delegation includes M. J. McDonough, T. J.

Anaconda Bureau. More than 100 of the questionnaires furnished by the members of the Anaconda Anglers' club, asking opinions on the proposed measure to close certain waters of the state to fishermen during a period of each year, has been filled out and returned to the secretary, Tuesday night. The local sportsmen still have until this evening to fill out the questionnaires and hand them in to the secretary at the Anaconda Bureau of the Butte Miner. The questions will be canvassed this evening at a meeting of the club, to be held at 8 o'clock, and at which every member of the organization is urged to be present. Nothing in the way of amending the game laws in recent years has aroused as much interest among local sportsmen. Fellows who never were known to give their attention to a question of this nature, have submitted their opinion, and are discussing and arguing the subject with their assoicates [sic]. All sorts of argument for and against the proposed measure is being advanced. Regardless of merits, or demerits of the question, the interest shown demonstrates the action of the local club meets with the approval of the sportsmen, as it gives them the opportunity of expressing their views on the matter. [the following item is the continuation of "ALUMNI ASSOCIATION", the last item of column 1, set below a double rule] Aug. 12. are now being received by Anaconda young people. The committee on arrangements is planning for one of the finest dances that the association has ever held. Miss Mary McGinty and Miss Muriel Lewis have charge of the decorations for the affair. ### RETURNS FROM VACATION.

She reports an enjoyable time, despite the fact that the weather was almost too warm for comfort. ### CONNECTING ROAD. Nels Pearson is working a crew of men at the Southern Cross, building a short piece of road which is necessary to connect with the mining operations on the Pomeroy group of claims recently leased by Judge Pringle and the heirs of the Pomeroy estate to the American Smelting and Refinery company of Helena. It will be used to haul out the iron ores to be quarried for use at the Helena smelters in fluxing. ### SUNDAY SCHOOL PICNIC. A joint picnic of three Anaconda Protestant Sunday schools, the Baptists, Presbyterians and Methodists, will be held at Washoe park Thursday afternoon.

Resolutions of sympathy were voted to Mrs. Johnson and to Mrs. Margaret Connell, county president of Silver Bow county, whose husband's funeral was held Tuesday in Butte.

Among the delegates in attendance at the state convention of the A. O. H., being held in Anaconda, none is better known or liked than T. J. Kelly of this city. Mr. Kelly has been attending A. O. H. conventions throughout the state for a year, and a better posted man on Irish politics, history and traditions, would be hard to find. He is a gentleman of the old school, and nothing gives him more pleasure than to relate some of the quaint Irish legends that he learned as a "bye" back on the "ould sod." One of these, pertaining to the origin of the Irish harp, he related Tuesday to a gathering of congenial acquaintances. This is the way he told it: "There was a man went to sleep on the shore one night, and all night long he was hearing songs, whether it was fairies singing in the air above him, or seals crooning, that they say are fairies in disguise, or wild swans drifted out on the waves lamenting. "He didn't know at all what it was, but when he wakened fully in the morning, what he was sleeping by was the carcass of a great sea monster, a whale or something of the kind. All the skin and the flesh were dried and had fallen from the bones, and it was the white ribs, bleached and clean, that the wind was blowing through and making the strange songs the man had heard. He looked at it and he listened. "The wind was still singing through the old bones all the songs it had—the songs that are like laughing, the ones that seem to be full of tears and grief and those that are lullabies, soft and comforting. "Then the man had an idea, and he constructed a frame and stretched strings across it to be in place of the bones. And it appeared to be that he thought each kind of song should have a particular kind of string that would match it. "He put in shining red bronze strings for the songs of laughter to be played upon and iron strings for dark grief and laments and white silver ones for the soothing sleep songs. And that was the first harp complete. "All the tunes of Ireland grew out of the tunes that were first played upon it. Indeed, after all the tunes of the world grew out of those three, the Songs of Laughter, the Songs of Tears and the last quiet Songs of Sleep." # ANACONDA BRIEFS. Anaconda Bureau. William Forsman of the west valley transacted business in the city Tuesday. Mr. and Mrs. William Lockman, who recently returned from Chicago, and who are now making their home in Butte, made Anaconda friends a brief visit Tuesday. Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Lewis of Hoquim [sic], Wash., spent Tuesday in the city visiting friends. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Peppin have returned from a two months' visit in Washington and Oregon. They made the trip by auto. ## Column 4 [box, spans the head of column 4] *Bureau Representatives:* Si Stoddard, Miss M.

Callan, who relieved him, experienced hard going during the rest of the game.

A quiet home wedding took place at 6 o'clock Tuesday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Henault, 414 West Fourth street, at which their daughter, Miss June Henault, became the bride of Ralph Green. The Rev. Charles F. Wolfe of the Methodist Episcopal church officiated. The young folks were attended by Miss Violet Verdan and Walter Hoy. Both the young people occupy a prominent position in local social circles, and the news of their marriage came as a complete surprise to their many friends. The bride is an only daughter and was born and reared in this city. She was a member of the class of 1921 of the Anaconda high school. Mr. Green is the only son of Mr. and Mrs. Harve Green of Warm Springs and is employed as an ironworker at the smelter, and held in high esteem by all. They will make their home in this city. # JOHN E. BRENNAN OF LAURIN DIES AT HOSPITAL AT GALEN Anaconda Bureau. John E. Brennan, aged 51 years, and a native of New York state, died Tuesday at the state tuberculosis hospital at Galen, following an illness of long duration. Mr. Brennan resided at Laurin, where a wife and two children survive him. He is a brother of Pat Brennan and Mrs. Mary Johnston of this city. Mrs. Johnston is the state president of the Ladies' Auxiliary of the Ancient Order of Hibernians, now holding its state convention in Anaconda. At Tuesday's meeting a vote of sympathy was extended Mrs. Johnston by the members of the order. The funeral will be held Thursday morning from the home of his sister Mrs. Mary Johnston, 512 Cedar street, with services at St. Paul's church where a requiem high mass will be celebrated at nine o'clock. Interment will be in Mount Carmel Cemetery. Robert, aged 8, ran to his father with his nose bleeding. "What have you been doing?" demanded his father, as he rendered first aid. "A boy hit me," was the answer. "Well, and did you hit him back?" "No, father; you see he was smaller than me." The father's heart glowed. "And beside he was a poor boy." The parental face beamed with pride. "And," added the boy, "you can never tell how strong those poor boys are." [advertisement: calonite powder] # YOU'LL GET RID OF BLACKHEADS SURE There is one simple, safe and sure way that never fails to get rid of blackheads and that is to dissolve them. To do this get two ounces of calonite powder from any drug store—sprinkle a little on a hot, wet sponge—rub over the blackheads briskly—wash the parts and you will be surprised how the blackheads have disappeared. Big blackheads, little blackheads, no matter where they are, simply dissolve and disappear, leaving the parts without any mark whatever. Blackheads are simply a mixture of dust and dirt and secretions from the body that form in the pores of the skin. Pinching and squeezing only cause irritation, make large pores, and do not get the blackheads out after they become hard. The calonite powder and the water simply dissolve the blackheads so they wash right out, leaving the pores free and clean and in their natural condition. Anyone troubled with these unsightly blemishes should certainly try this simple method.—Adv. ## Column 5 [advertisement: Connell's; spans columns 5-6 and fills both to the foot of the page; its full-width lines are given here in reading order, then the left-hand blocks; the right-hand blocks follow under Column 6] # Connell's [illustration: an oval picture of a woman in a cap beside a dressing table and a brass bed piled with blankets] # Blankets! *In this store the determination to achieve low price levels has in no way jeopardized quality.
