Page overview

An interior page of The Anaconda Standard for Sunday, March 4, 1923, mixing local court news with retail advertising and short business items. The left column is dominated by a large display ad for Utah Knitting Co. silk and wool unions, while the right half of the page is taken up by a half-page illustrated display ad for Baxter's furniture. Between these anchors, the centre columns carry court and courthouse notes, the Murphy-Softley anniversary item, and a brief on Lieutenant Hunt's arrival in Butte. The bottom of the page is divided between smaller display ads (shoes, groceries, coffee, Kleen-Maid) and a self-promotional want-ads filler line. The editorial tone is routine interior-page commerce and local civic news.

    secondarycol 3 (centre) · mid-page, below Courthouse Notes; modest single-column headline, sandwiched between court briefs above and Lieutenant Hunt item below

Juxtapositions

  • The Murphy-Softley women's furnishings anniversary notice sits directly beneath Courthouse Notes that include a Murphy-Liedke civil case, placing two unrelated Murphy surnames in close vertical proximity.
  • The cheerful Easter-sale optimism of the Murphy-Softley anniversary piece runs one column to the left of Baxter's 'Better Home' furniture ad, both pitching domestic comfort and easy spending to the same Sunday reader.

Rulings in Matters Under Advisement. Judge Jackson heard a law and motion calendar, rendered decisions on matters under advisement and set cases for trial before the jury yesterday. In Mooney against Rundle the court found for the plaintiff, ordered judgment entered, and allowed $50 attorney fee to Mooney. In Murray against the Noyes estate, the motion to strike from the answer was denied. In the suit of Simeon against the county, defendant's demurrer to the amended complaint was overruled.

Harwood against Sybil Scott, administratrix, was transferred to Judge Carroll's court. ### Divorces Granted. Dorothy Butrick was granted a divorce from Walter Butrick on defendant's default. Jean Greig's marriage to Walter Greig was annulled by the court. This suit was brought at the direction of Judge Jackson himself while sitting as a juvenile judge when it was shown that the husband had thrown his wife, who was a minor, and whom he had married without consent of her parents, in contact with undesirable persons. Judgments were entered on plaintiff's proofs in the cases of Fred Lund against J. B. Mayne and Thomas Lennon against Mae Kurth. Lund was allowed $50 attorney fees. The suit of E. J. Strasburger against the Butte & Western Silver Mining company was continued to March 22. The state, on the relation of Nellie Bennetts, against the city, motion to quash writ of mandate, was continued, subject to call. Bill of exceptions in the state against Rouleau were signed. In this case the state is appealing from the action of the district court. The suit of Fred Heffron against G. V. Thomas was set for March 16 and that of the Fred Miller Brewing company against Argersinger brothers was transferred to Judge Carroll's department.

John Hallas has released his one-third interest of the estate of his deceased wife, Amy Crocker Hallas, surrendering the interest to his stepdaughter, Mavis. The estate is valued at about $5,000. In the case of Sam Johnson against the Milwaukee railway, the defendant demands a change of venue to Mineral county. In the suit of Fred Lund against J. B. Mayne, the decree of foreclosure on a judgment for $1,019.75 has been filed in the district court. Defendant's motion to quash have been filed in the suits of Nellie Bennetts and Willis Irvine against the city, action for unpaid salaries. A default has been entered in the divorce suit of Mahala Hathaway against Harvey Hathaway in the district court.

The court notified those interested that if they wished the matter heard before a jury they must give three days' notice in advance of the date of hearing. In the estate of T. D. Sullivan, settlement of account and objections thereto, the court held that $2,[9?]21.70, credited by the administratrix to the Sullivan estate, should have been credited to the account of C. T. Sullivan. The court further found that the share of the objector was $7,582.05, less $1,005.85, expenses to date, leaving a net balance of $6,473. Against the net is to be assessed $150, objector's proportion of $450 attorney fees. Paul A. Ozanne has filed a petition to have two little children declared dependent. Both parents are living, but the father can not be found and the mother is married again in Texas. The children have no relatives in Butte. ### TEMPLE MATERIAL ARRIVES. With work on the retaining walls completed, 10 tons of steel to be used for a reinforced footing in the building of the new Masonic temple has arrived, according to Architect Wellington Smith. It is now planned to push the erection of the temple annex as fast as weather conditions will permit. Domestication of cattle began in prehistoric times. ## Columns 3-7 [display advertisement across the upper right; spans columns 3-7] [illustration: ornamental border enclosing a drawing of two men reading in a furnished library room] *What a BETTER HOME means to a Man* The right sort of a home means to a man, perhaps more than anything else, COMFORT—a place where he can rest and recuperate his weary brain and body—a place where he can turn for real relief from a strenuous business life. A well-furnished home, with good furniture in good taste, with harmonious carpetings and drapings, arranged and outfitted to contribute in fair measure to the welfare of husband as well as wife, with at least one room for HIS special benefit, wherein he may lounge, smoke and read—where he may entertain HIS friends—such a home will center a man's interest and go far toward preserving the "tie that binds." A well furnished home does not require elaborate or expensive furniture. Indeed, it may be very simple. But it DOES require suitable, practical furniture and furniture in good taste—and these essentials are easily obtained if the selection is but made at the right store, where there is the desire to really help the homemaker, rather than merely sell them. "You Had Better Buy at Baxter's" for here will be offered many suggestions, helpful to wives or husbands, toward making congenial homes for menfolks—and toward making homes attractive for ALL the family. We suggest the wisdom of calling upon us—"Better Buy at Baxter's." *EASY PAYMENTS—NO INTEREST* *Exclusive Agents for Karpen Furniture* # Baxter's 20 West Broadway *Agents for Karpen Guaranteed Furniture* *(Copyright 1916)* ## Column 3 [below the Baxter's advertisement] # MURPHY-SOFTLEY CO. TO OBSERVE ANNIVERSARY Monday the Murphy-Softley company, women's furnishings house, at 22 West Park street, will observe the third anniversary of its opening for business in Butte. The firm is composed of Jaues [sic] J. Murphy and Edward W. Softley. Devoting themselves to the study of the desire of Butte shoppers, Mr. Murphy and Mr. Softley have established themselves firmly in the mercantile life of the city. The Murphy-Softley company today has a long list of friends not only in Butte, but in Anaconda and other Montana cities. As an appreciation of the patronage that has been theirs for the last three years, the firm has announced an anniversary sale to begin Monday morning. With the approach of Easter, it was considered that this would be a most opportune time to hold such an affair. Despite the fact that the firm was compelled to face an almost unprecedented industrial depression soon after it became established, the wonderful support given by the Butte buying public enabled it to come through in excellent style. The anniversary sale will last through the entire week. New spring and summer merchandise is being shown in profusion. # LIEUTENANT HUNT ARRIVES IN BUTTE Lieut. Peter F. Hunt, U. S. N., arrived home from his station with the Pacific fleet at San Diego on Friday morning in time to attend the funeral of his sister, Miss Mary E. Hunt. Difficulty was encountered in locating the naval officer to notify him of his sister's death, owing to the fact that his ship was on a short cruise. He will remain in Butte for about two weeks. ### GONE FOR PRISONER. Sheriff Duggan left for Los Angeles last night to bring back Lawrence Rooney, charged with grand larceny. ## Columns 4-7 [below the Baxter's advertisement] [illustration: girl in Dutch costume beside a circle] # KLEEN-MAID is eager to meet you—at your grocer's. Don't disappoint her. *Copyright 191[3?]* # Standard Want Ads Bring Quick Results
