# CONNELL CHARITY DONATIONS CITED
## Former Butte Man Made Huge Gifts, Check of Estate Shows.
Michael J. Connell, 81, former Butte capitalist who died suddenly at the Bolsa Chica Gun club in Los Angeles last Wednesday, during the last two years gave a third of a million dollars to charity, it was learned yesterday after a check of the accounts of his estate.
Among the multimillionaire's recent gifts, all in Los Angeles, were the following: Parent-Teacher association milk fund, $20,000; Good Hope Hospital association, $100,000; Castelar Creche, $15,000; philharmonic orchestra, $50,000, and to make up a deficit in the community chest budget for 1934, $56,000.
According to news dispatches Mr. Connell was socially of California's first rank. For years he and Mrs. Connell were patrons of the annual Bachelors' club ball, the top social event of Southern California, and it was a tradition for Mr. Connell to appear each year dressed as Robin Hood.
Born in Ireland in 1854, Mr. Connell came to the United States at the age of 19 and after many years in Butte, during which he made his fortune, he moved in 1893 to Los Angeles. He was chairman of the Citizens' National Trust and Savings bank of Los Angeles, director of half a dozen other corporations, and held large real estate ownings including seven office buildings in downtown Los Angeles. His home at 2307 South Figueroa street in that city is said to house a treasure in jewelry, art objects and valuable furniture.

# NEW BOOK ON INDIANS OF MONTANA IS ISSUED
The Blackfeet Indians of Glacier National park are the subject of a new book which is believed to be the first of its kind ever published.
Included in the volume, that is said to be as colorful as an Indian sun dance, is the product of the brush and pen of two of the foremost authorities on the Indians of the Northwest, one a well-known portrait painter, the other an equally well-known author, it is announced.
The Blackfeet are presented pictorially through full color reproductions of the famous portraits of Winold Reiss. The originals have attracted unusual interest at art exhibits throughout the country. For twenty years Mr. Reiss has spent his summers among the Indians in their "Land of the Shining Mountains."
The new volume also presents the first authentic historical account of the Blackfeet Indians in an article, "Out of the North." This is the work of Frank Bird Linderman, author of the "Indian Way" stories and several other volumes relating to the plains Indians. Fifty years ago, as a young man, Mr. Linderman went to live among the Blackfeet, and his present story is a vastly interesting human document.
Publication of the unique volume was sponsored by the Great Northern Railway.
