# BADEN LEADS IN WINNINGS FOR 1912 ## Noted Trotter Bids Fair to Equal Billy Buck's Winning Record. The big race meeting at Lexington is bound to furnish some new records as concerns big money-earning trotters and pacers. Baden, the great trotter that has been going extremely well with fair luck in the Blue Grass during his ten days' stay there, he is likely to surpass the world's record for big winnings. The record belongs to Ed Geers's gelding, Billy Buck, 2:05¼, that earned $11,299 in 1905. As a matter of interest the following comparison is given showing how the horses stand now. Lexington is a right-cent track. TROTTERS.

The scoring job pays for too much money and liberal expenses. The writers agreed to do their own scoring and appointed two of the most competent men in the country for the job. They are men of the Baseball Writers' Association of America. Now, which score will be accepted generally? The Butte high school football team started the system and made a very good feeling discussion 14 to 9, Saturday, and while giving the visitors credit for play- --- [Column continues] ing a good game, the Butte team did not seem to put up that slashing offensive which carried them to victory in years past. They do not seem to have the old steam. If they cannot get into the plays with enough dash and force, then possibly this will develop as the season proceeds. The team is very light this year, and if they expect to win their big games, they must depend a great deal on speed and on getting the jump on the other fellow. However, all is not off. Personally played his usual brilliant game and was the most prominent Butte lad in the contest. Del Murray played a good and much better than Anaconda showed, while his passing enabled the locals to score one of their tallies. Anaconda's tops made a touchdown through a brilliant run and passed, but Umpire Powell seemed to allow the score, as the Anaconda men did not have even close to the line of scrimmage when the play started. Received a postcard from J. A. Herchas this morning which is dated October 13. It says, which read, "Just going to the game." It was 6 to 8 [?] the game witnessed by fans who were made intensely eager by the interesting struggle. Personally, Los [Track and Field?] says Anaconda is in no shape to win. As a summary of the series I received a Boston score girl this morning from Ohio. Pitts. She is writing the big series for the Denver and Kansas City papers. It is a large and interesting [illegible] containing 10 pages, double pages, and contains many other stories, pictures and records of all the Boston players in it much interesting data on the union's work. In the Chicago game played yesterday the Cubs defeated the White Sox in the Reichach game. Doyle of the New York Giants hit the difference of one hit in favor of the American League. At the end of that record in the game, which gives the National leaguers many complaints for defeats in the game. A crowd of 32,781 witnessed the contest, a larger attendance than in either of the first games. The St. Louis teams played a 10-inning tie yesterday, the score being 3 to 3 when darkness ended the struggle. Hamilton and Young were the pitchers, and the Americans got but one run while the Nationals got three in the first inning. Denver won the minor league championship, defeating Minneapolis 2 to 1 yesterday, which was the victory series 3 to 0. Anyway, Louisville will play the games, and while it will not prevent Denver from winning, Denver can easily draw a good crowd. The East League's Giants defeated the Colonial Street 31 to 4 in a very interesting and well fought championship game, while Johnnie Stow defeated the Moonlight Stars in an 8-inning game for Bozeman's championship. Through an error it was announced that the score was more than stated. The evening papers of this city gave the final score 44 to 8, whereas they should have given the correct score of 50 to 3, and would indicate that Anaconda did not put up a good attempt to win strongly. In a game intervening on the Saturday running Harvey Root defeated Devil Dodger in the fight record, after a spirited contest. Devil Dodger got off in front and looked like a winner, but Harvey Root outrun him and won by several points. Portland won the five-ball-half sum of the Reno Driving club track yesterday, defeating Colorado Penny with the smallest win possible last week.

He used his club with vigor, and his three bagger that he stretched into a homer when the Giants juggled the ball made the second game Boston's. But Murray's hitting was something of a surprise. He went through the games last time against the Athletics without getting a hit. This year he redeemed himself handsomely, and he has driven in two runs in the first game and by connecting with the ball successfully three times in the first contest and in five times at bat. He scored two runs in the second game. --- ## CAPTAINS OF THE RIVAL TEAMS AND GIANT WHO WON FINE AUTO [Image: Three photographs of baseball players labeled "STAHL", "DOYLE IN HIS NEW CAR", and "McGRAW"] Newspaper photographers were busy before and during the games for the baseball championship of the world. Managers Stahl and McGraw swapped shaking of hands to show that good fellowship was in proper while they tried to defeat each other, and Larry Doyle, second baseman of the Giants, posed at the wheel of the fine auto he received because a committee of newspaper writers regarded him as the most valuable man in his team of any National League player the season past. --- ## Column 3 *MORE money passes over the counter for Fatima Cigarettes—then for any other brand of cigarette in this country.* *The answer is in the plain package that holds 20—price only 15 cents.* *"Distinctively Individual"* *Liggett Myers Tobacco Co.* [Advertisement: FATIMA TURKISH CIGARETTES — 20 for 15¢] --- # JAMES J.

The following officers were elected: President, James J. Murphy; vice president, Eli Lawler; recording secretary, Thomas F. Callihan; financial secretary, Thomas J. Morton; treasurer, James Connolly.

C., Oct. 14.—Ernest Spinland, a young steel worker, died in the general hospital here today after being in the cell for 48 hours as a charge of drunkenness. When found his face had been crushed by a heavy blow and his skull fractured. This happened September 21, and today Harold A. McNaughton, prominent in Vancouver society, and a student at Toronto university, is out on $1,000 bail, charged with manslaughter. Spinland's death came as the result of McNaughton's alleged intimacy with Spinland's girl both. She is 18 years of age. McNaughton was arrested Friday night. In the information now pending pending his application for bail. Dora Enger-McLennan, who was but 15 years of age last Christmas eve, when she disappeared, was found Sunday from Suicide Friday night by a detective. She is held as a material witness, for the police say she was with McNaughton when he struck Spinland. While several accounts are buzzing with all sorts of rumors, adverse criticism is directed at Magistrate Shaw by lawyers. The magistrate permitted the release of the youth, although it is said by the police that he admits being the slayer. --- ## SHOT BY SON. Garfield Bay, Idaho, Oct. 14[?].—F. Miller, a farmer, was shot and killed nearly yesterday by his oldest son Samuel, a young man. The wife professed to go on a 7-year-old sister and told that their mother had gone to visit a relative, and saw two shots at his father. The shooting was the outcome of a long-standing domestic trouble in which the children had taken sides. According to neighbors, Diller had been drinking heavily and had repeatedly been heard to threaten to slay his entire family, according to the other children, the boy fired when he discovered his father dragging the woman from one room to another. --- ## PUTS END TO BAD HABIT.

Mexico City, Oct. 14.—The Mexican people must be prepared to be governed by a dictator "who will rule by the sword if they fail to support the present administration, according to President Madero. The president made this in a speech at a banquet at which the guests were congressmen and millionaires in politics. The banqueters retired with only an indefinite idea of just what it was the president had meant, and since then the public generally has been much guessing as to his real meaning. When Madero was spreading the doctrine of equality and democracy, there were few who would have believed there was a tendency of a dictator dormant in him. Since then, however, by his invocation of a state of suspension of constitutional guarantees, he has displayed some of the signs of a successful "iron Man." Many have suggested that President Madero was warning them that he himself would be the out is "rule by the sword." "By right," said the president, "when I first began my work, I decided that the will of the people was the will of God, the will must be executed, and I consider it my duty to see that it is. The present government has fulfilled its purpose, and if the government freely elected by the people, upon certain lines, it will be proof that the Mexican people are capable of democracy. It would then be necessary to call a dictator who will govern by the sword." The president also bitterly assailed the press, an institution for whose unrestrained liberty he fought. "The power of the press which has survived," said the president, "is now building a relic of the old regime. It tries to alarm and deceive all of the country in many possible ways and still the people revolted, and they will believe it whenever." ### Opposition in Congress. How much reliance the executive can place upon the support of congress this fall and winter is not known. That President Madero became worried during the first part of the present month when it first appeared that the government party, or the Maderistas, were in the minority, came to a further when that body was gathering at the capital. The first week in October it became apparent that the chamber had been split into many factions, each a party control. Worse still, men who had been elected by the votes of Madero's solemnly announced their own political views so different from that of their comrades that the Congress seemed torn by many factions. All the became certain early in the session was that there was a strong group of deputies clearly and directly in cooperation "so long at they approved of the president's methods." The expression most frequently heard in the lobby was "I will compromise my victory. I expect the affairs of the country; that congress would give instructions to the president which are effective then." Adversity has resulted in an altercation almost completely to open hostility and coalition following. The rough riding of the peasants had become necessary for the campaign of General Huerta and by the victory of the military authorities in preventing the exportation of arms and military [illegible] necessary for the supply of the more fastidious rebels, and they have disappeared from Orozco's army. Chief among the rebel chiefs is Jose Cordulo, a polished product of the old regime. There is an entire company of rebels at this Jose Cordulo, who here the little corps of the most determined fighters and some of them captured by Americans at the time of the Mexican revolution, or was taken in custody. Captured American officers here left the service of the rebel chief voluntarily outside of the city of Fort [illegible], Miguel, Gringa and Jose Sierra. These three left recently and went to join the Orozquistas in Canada. Cordulo and Sierra had been in the United States service but were long ago discharged. Of the Americans, one is of San Antonio, Texas, though a citizen of Monterey, Mexico. The two others are said to have records in the rebel establishment, are reported to be New Americans enlisted recruits. Cooper was paymaster general of the rebel army, and Cooper, a Mexican, born of American parents who had been a resident the greater part of his life was spent in the United States. Two others who are out of the fighting are Ferris and Nicolas Martinez and Claro de Paris, both residents of the Mexican capital, but who have been with this or with that [illegible] company. Both are said to be good fighters though at no time did the departed element show itself, so, or indeed it as long as they were in the revolution. --- ## DEMOCRATS TO SPEAK. The democratic central committee has arranged a series of mass meetings to inaugurate a series of street meetings, comprising the coming election. The general speakers for this evening will be Joe Meehan, John Roach, David Hennessy, J. R. William Curtis, J. E. McNally and T. J. Walsh. --- ## OPPOSE MILITARY BILL. Announcement is made that the Butte Trades and Labor council last evening voted officially to oppose military bill, and there two men on election day at the polls where they will speak against the bill, and to be called to enlist them to vote against it. The statement for putting money for the announcement was decided at the next meeting of the council. The remainder of the business was purely routine. --- ## GOLF BALL KILLS A SPARROW, THEN GOES ON At the Bozeman Country club, a member hit a sparrow and both continued from him and the ball went through and through on the seventh tee. This shot had to strain a golf ball and the game is played. The big ball covered a similar round and the fall bird was flying in the same direction and scattered just in advance of the hit, and the big ball fell soaring behind. The bird was picked up dead, though it had received a charge of shot. It was hardly checked in the flight of the ball on the green run for time of ten holes. --- A.
