many of the trust-made brands of goods

dictated by the sales departments of the

prices in such a way as to hurt the

that unless it desists at once from such
price cutting we will publish its name

She was very violent and it was decided

reason, however, and was released.
About a week ago it was noticed that
her mind appeared to be affected and
since that time she has been evidenc
ing symptoms of insanity. The last at
tack followed an attack of pneumonia.
Mr. Anderson is left with three small
children to care for. He is an em

MISSING HEIR.
Efforts are being made in Butte and
vicinity to locate Arthur Maynard. for
merly of Lakota, and who a few years
ago was a resident of Butte. There
appears to be some mystery connect
ed with the etise. as Attorney Fred A.
Kelly, of Lako&, who was Tfi Butte
recently in'quest of Maynard, refused
to state just what Maynard was want
ed for. It is believed that there is an
interest in an estate in North Dakota
awaiting the missing man, but this
could not be verified.
While in Butte Maynard was employ
ed in the Parrott and other smelters.
Later he went to Great Falls, where he
was also employed in a smelter. After
leaving Great Falls all trace was lost
of the man. A Butte attorney has been
asked to assist in the search for the
missing man, but up to date nothing
has he^t^heard of his whereabouts.

Forum: In The Forum of Dec.
Hie
11,
I
noticed a clipping from The Jamestown
Alert concerning the potatoes and onions
raised by myself and son 011 our claims
near Balfour. N. D.. during the past
years, and also the prices at which we
sold our claims. The item is not in ac
cord with the facts.
While waiting at Jamestown for the
belated train for the west, we dropped
into The Alert office and the employes
of Editor Kellogg evidently misunder
stood us. We expected to harvest about
250 bushels of onions as they looked
very fine when half grown, but they did
not stool out on the surface and so fail
ed to make an onion fit for market.
We only pulled about fifteen bushels.
Our potato crop was better, as we
dug about 340 bushels which sold read
ily at 50 cents per bushel.
Flax did not pay for breaking the
sod, let alone the paying for the seed.
Now as to our claims which we proved
up on o. k., my son, Wm. I. Adams,
made a loan on his 1G0 acres of $700
to pay the government for the land
and to pay for the improvements. 1
also put up eighty acres in to prove
up and we sold out to the first man
who made an offer for this enough to
pay for the improvements, and to get
to our new home where my son has
already procured employment as a street
car conductor, and is making on excel
lent record. We reached here Dec. 3
and are pleased with the mild weather,
having but two or three inches of snow
and no wind to drift it. With regards
to old friends believe me,*

FURS!
Fur Neckwear—A piece of fur is
a most desirable and luxurious
gift. Perhaps you have wife
mother, daughter, sister, who
would like nothing better. This
is sure to be the case, if not al
ready supplied.
Real Fur Bargains—It is not the
lowest prices that tell of the best
fur values. A difference of a
couple of dollars or so in the
price of a garment is not a mat
ter f6r serioas consideration.
It is the quality of the skins
fr6tn which they are made and
the thoroughness of the furriers
that made them up -that gives
real value. You know our furs
are right or they would not be
