OIL AND GOLD
STRIKES CAUSE
OF EXCITEMENT
HELENA, Mont., March 26 (by As
sociated Press).—Perhaps never since
the early gold rushes that led to the |
foundation of the state has the pros
pect of the acquisition of natural
wealth so stirred Montana. Two dis
tinct oil fields and a new gold field
are drawing the adventurous from far
and near.
The Roundup oil field is little less
a mecca than the new Winnett-Mosby
field, more recent of discovery.
The gold rush is to the Scobey coun
try, where ore assaying as high as
$420 to the ton in the yellow metal
was found in digging a well, according
to reports. More than a hundred
claims were staked within a few hours
after the announcement of the discov
ery, and the rush apparently is only
begun.
Oil seekers who have invaded state
land projects. Governor Stewart has
announced, must vacate, or he will
take steps to force them out. Clashes
between ranchers and oil men have
been reported.

ENID BENNETT SOME
“NAUGHTY, NAUGHTY”
AT EMPRESS TONIGHT
It is several weeks since Enid Ben
nett has been in town, but she is back
again tonight, in a picture just bub
bling over with fun and mischief. It’s
called “Naughty, Naughty,” and you
take it from us, Enid fills the bill to
perfection. The only reason she
didn’t get into more scrapes and cause
a bigger commotion in her native vil
lage was because she didn’t know
how. But what she did was plenty,
and furnishes five reels of merriment.
At any rate, she woke that village
up from a nice, peaceful snooze that
had lasted for the past hundred years,
and she jarred her nice, respectable,
sleepy sweetheart into something al
most approaching galvanic action, she
changed the “pride of-the village” in
to a real girl, and what she did to the
deacon of the church—oh-h-h!
Drop around and watch Enid for a
while tonight; you might get some
good pointers.
