Addross all to TnE C olumbian , Columbia Falls, Mont. THURSDAY, FEB. 18, 1897. It begins to look to a n treoas though tho Pastirao athlotic club of Butto would bo a good sub ject for a polico raid. Washington, Illinois, Minnesota, New York and Now Jersey havo laws making Fob. 12, Lincoln’s birthday, a legal holiday. Why liot Montana! The senators were paid off last weok and each of tho now sonators according to agreement refunded the oxcoss milongo, amounting in all to $330 40. And yet it is claiulod there is ho heroism in this day and age. Now will Uncle Sam brace up and raise ructions! Three. American ladies, passengers on board the United States mail stolmor Olivotto, in tho harbor of Havana, havo been • stripped by Spanish soldiers and de tectives. _______________ | McKinley chickons are coming home to roost in a hurry. In one little coal mining district of Ohio fifty families are starving.

Tho sensational stories thrown to tho four winds of heavon by tho Columbia opera company in regard to outrages committed by drunken cowboys at Shelby Junction wore wild exaggerations. Nevertheless, when shorn of embellishuiout, tho affair was not creditablo to tho state and tho immediate arrest and punishmont of tho ofiendora moots with general approval. Tho facts in tho matter are tho ion engaged in a drunken row at tho depot , and usod improper lan guage, not because of, but without regard to, tho presonco of women. The man who did tho protection act carousere v Columbia carolor but Station Agent Kingsbury. Results are as follows: 1. M.'Conpolly, a woll-knowu inau thntsoctiou pleaded guilty to dis turbing tho peace as soon as ho got sober and realized what a fool ho had made of himself. Ho claimed to bo very much ashamod of his share the transaction. The court imposed a fino of $100 and costs, which ho paid. Later ho was charged with exhibiting a doadly woapou in a rudo aud angry manner, and to this chargo he also pleaded guilty and thejustico fined him another $100 bill, which ho paid. 2. YouDg Starkoy, the cowboy who got so fresh with his gun and 8hota1ioloin a lantern in tho wait finqd $100 for dis charging a gnn in the depot, also paid tho fiuo’. J. N. Nichols, who commenced iw by calling Connolly names, charged with disturbing tho peace and using indecent- languogo the presence of ladies and rant issued for his arrest. D. Simmons, who paraded the platform, firing his gun in lb left the noxt day for the Marias but a warrant is out for his arrest ad an officer has gone after him. 5. Last, but not least by any means, much advertising for the opera' company, in general and the prima donna in particular who out for tho interview. HIS LIFE WORK DONE Herbert Spencer, I lie great English scientist, lins at lust finished his life work. The last stroke of been made. The great'monument of lit erary endeavor stands comp!cted%to last through how many aRcs foretell. Wilh tho third volume of his ' Principles of Sociology,'' recently pub lished, his great work, comprising many volumes, lia.4 been rounded out: This book is tho Inst of the'series entitled System of Synthetic Philosophy. ” It has been a herculean tusk. When it as begun, more than CO years ago, scientOtR who read Spcncer'sprospectus cither marveled at his daring or rcoffed at what they considered bis folly. Tho outline which ho gave of that wonderful and comprehensive scheme, tiro vastest probnbly which tho mind of any anthor bus over conceived, surely tho greatest which lias ever been executed, astound ed his readers. As originally planned, the work was i consist of ten' volumes and was to _jver the entire field of knowledge, hot along the knowable, but the. unknow able. He was to take the principle of evolution, which Darwin afterward ap plied to n more limited field, and, l>c- giuning with organio liatnjp, carry it through to tho very end. IIo announced that lie would start with tlio creation of the world .and pursao his lino of phil osophic explanation and reasoning through the development end'variation of plants and animals, tho origin aud growth of the mind, and finish with a consideration of tho then unconstituted Bcience of sociology, dealing with tho ovolution of tlioso products of tho tality, such ns language, science an arts, whoso development had uover been studied in any complcto or systematic manner. And now tliis vast task is finished. Spencer has fnlfilled to tiro utmost every promise/ He lias redeemed every pledge mndo in his prospectus. That the great philosopher himself now fully realizes his own daring is clearly expressed in the prcfaco to his last volume. \On looking hack over tho six and thirty years which- have passed siiico tho ‘ Synthetic Philosophy’ Ex-King Milad and Quoon Natalie of Sorvia havo arratigod to live poaco- ably together for a tigio to enable King Alexander to nppoar with some pretense to decency as a suitor for tho hand of a princess. If it not for tho fact that no ono - will benefit by tho oxporionco of othors it is safo to presume Alex would not be on courtship baut. It is the Anaconda Staudnrd's opin ion that the pbn for semi-annual payment of taxes will not reduce the delinquent list, that it will Dot make the payments easier, but that it will be a source of needless annoyance to the public and that tho ono certain result of it will be a prouipt demand in every large county in tho state for an increase in tho number of clorks in the treasurers' offices. Tho bill has passed the senalo but it- is thought it will be killed iu tbe house. JJiahop YVaikor of Buffalo says ho was surprised aud griofed to liud that tho president feels that public meu aud a great many of tho private' citizens of this country misunder stand him and hfs purposes. Tho bishop found Mr. Cleveland suffer ing keenly from what, ho bolioved to bo a popular and unjust misappro- ^ hension of his purposes. Took Grover a long timo to catch on but the country is glad if at lost ho knows where he stauds:— STONE THROWING. The Brodley-Martins havo had their fancy dress ball aud evidently enjoyed it all tho more because of tho notoriety given them and it by the pulpit and tho preatff Tho ques tion is, is it any worse for tho Brad- ley-MartiiiH, with I heir millions, to . givo this expensive function than it is for people in more ihoderato cumstances to giro smaller affairs! You may be sure the hjphooatcd bloods paid all tbe bills connected withtboir splurge. That is more than many would-be swells do. There is no denying the fact thit it will appear wicked, iu tho face of alUhoAuffering in (ho world, to such large sums spout on an c ningfs entertainment. But has tho i( to call the kettle black?

In 1 800 myjaiKtU resources had teen nearly all frittered away in writing and pub lishing books which did not repay their expenses, and I was suffering, under a chronic disorder, caused by .an overtax of tho brain in 1855, which, wholly dis abling mo for 18 months, thereafter limited my work to tlirco hours a day aud usually to less. How insane my project must havo seemed lo onlookers may to judged from (he fact that before tho first chapter of the first volume was finished one of my nervous breakdowns caused me to desist. But imprudent causes do not always fail. Sometimes a forlorn hope is justified by tho event. Though, along with olher deterrents, many relapses, now lasting for weeks, now for mouths mid ouco for years, often made mo despair of reaching tho end, yet at length the end is reached.\ Mr’ Spencer is 70 years old, but he bids fair to become an octogenarian in spite of his fcimer feebleness. For many years ho has lived quietly among his books iu an old fashioned houso in Regent's park, London. Ho is unmar ried, but ho has by no means lived Ibe llfo of a hermit.' A few intimate friends visit him, aud ho seldom dines alone, preferring to go to sonio club or to be entertained by sonio of tho many peoplo wbo arc anxious to lionize liim. Of course he meets peoplo whoso lack of intelligence must Loro him, but when such individuals become too aggressive ho has a habit of stopping liis cars with a couple of little plugs which ho carries for tho purpose. Ho carries liis great weight of learn ing with much modesty, however, and is extremely simplo and direct in liis talk with casual friends or nequaint- to teojAnccs. He still wears the broadcloth , p , ’ pock coat, low cut wuiftcont, overgai- 1 LU 'v mid black rtoek of years ago. Ho is of medium height, but his sliouldera are somewhat rounded. He docs not seem infirm, however, nnd liis pinky while cheeks, framed iu snow white whiskers, linvo the look of health. Herbert Spencer gavo little evidence of his wonderful intellect until hov B0. Ho started out in lifo ns a civil (Oncer, with n louduess for mntbcmnt- .ics, but when lie ouco dipped into phil osophy lie toon went deeper than any thinker before him hod gone pud before he was 40 had mopped out tbe life work which ho has so recently completed.
