proud of the record they have made.
Datcher Zearfoss, who has been sick

be ns well ms ever In a few days. He
had a slight attack of p«eumoula,
Marshall, Iho crack third baseman, is

the week, and Captain Rose, who no.

would cancel the Billings dates for this
week if Billings did not play in Helens
last Saturday and Sunday, Neither do
the Helena papers say anythina about
the Butte team being paid 925 to cap
cel its dates, so that Helenmi could 5
them. which statement was made I=
Butte players to members of the Billings
team. The Helena press also fails to
mention that Manager Phillips was so
discourteous as to drop the telephone on
Manager Nil, when they were talking
between Helena and Butte last Friday.
The truth of the whole matter is that
Helena failed to force Billings into two
games with thema when our team was
crippled. Helena no doubt did know,
through messages that went throqph
that city to Manager Nix from Bill
ings, that he was advised to play Hel
ena at Butte, but no such' proposition
was ever made by Manager Nix and At
wa" a decidedly cheap proceeding for
Manager Phillips to rush into print and
attempt to east odium on Billings and
Manager Nix as having "flaked."
The Helena management, however,
has decided to come to Billings this
week, after all. Games will be played
here tuxt Friday forenoon and Satur.
lay artd Sundlay afternoon. The Fri
day cunet will be called promptly at
10:110 a m.. and the other games at 8
p In. Fitty cent admission will be
bharged to men and 25 cents to the
ladies and boys. Everyone is anxious
to see the two teams meet and good
samuns are promised.

fase similar to that of J. E. Milner.

lhu recently instituted suit against the

without authority.
Mr. Clement recently wrote the Sib

torage, giradin and several other
harges had been paid, besides ltying

he wool had been sold. This is
boubht to be false, as the wool was
