Murray Joke and a Boomerang Ride in Helena 1891
An old advance man recounts J Duke Murray as a demure, lively prankster in Helena around 1891. Murray jokingly funds a trolley fare for two rivals, leaving them stranded and chased by a railroad camp before all reunite in defeat and amusement. The tale blends theater circles, art talk, and frontier misadventure with local merchants and holiday candy ads at the end.
