THE EKALAKA EAGLE JIM TALBOT HAD MANY ADVENTURES STATE PIONEER WHO FOUGHT WITH WALKER IN NICARAGUA IS NO MORE Was in California Before '49; Pros- pected for Gold in South America and Australia; in Alder Gulch In 18438. James A, Talbot, founder of Col- umbia Palls, is dead. He lived a most adventurous career. He was one of General Walker's men in that swashbuckler's ill-fated at- tempt to take over the Nicaraguan government, and escaped when the expedition failed, by walking over the Isthmus and taking ship for South America. He mined for gold in California and in Australia, and was with the first rush of the ar- gonauts to Alder gulch in 1863. He served as a member of the ad- visory board of the Vigilantes, and was among the first to appreciate the quartz possibilities of Butte district, a circumstance that made of him a very wealthy man. Mr. Talbot was born in Meigs county, Ohio, October 30, 1838. At the age of 12 he went to Missouri to live and at the age of '17 he began overland freighting to California. This was some time before the fam- ous rush of the \49-ers.\ Soon after- ward he took a contract to haul mail from Yuma to San Diego. He ac- complished this by importing camels for use in crossing Death valley. It is said that there are still des- cendants of these camels, running wild in the Arizona deserts. Mr. Talbot made several trips in- to old Mexico. With General Walker he went into Nicaragua on an expedition for the purpose of taking over the Nicara- guan government. Later he crossed the Isthmus of Panama, making the journey on foot and later went around the horn of South America to Australia in search of gold. He tra- veled extensively through South America but finally drifted back to California, then to Nevada, where he stayed at Carson City and Bannack. At Alder Gulch in '63 In 1863 he went north to Montana and landed in Alder gulch and Vir- ginia City in the boom days of 1863 and was present when five despera- does were strung up by the Vigi- lantes. While he never took an act- ive part in the work of the Vigil- antes, an organisat1011 formed to quell the acts of bad men of that time, he was a member of their ad- visory board. He lived in Alder gulch for several years and later moved to Columbia Falls, where he opened J. A. Tal- bott's bank, which is still in exist- ence. Ile was a charter member of the Montana Pioneer society. He retired some years ago, but contin- ued his residence in Columbia Falls until last October. In 1876 he was married to MISR Josie L. Ramsdell, daughter of Joseph Ransdell. The Itanadell family was also known throughout Montana, and particularly in Butte, having been among the earliest pioneers. Mr. and Mrs. Talbott had seven children, only two of whom are living at this time. During the years in Butte, Mr. . Talbott accumulated a large amount of property. Founded Columbia Palls Mr. Talbott and his family lived at Columbia Falls for 24 years. He can truthfully be called the father of this little western city. Ile gave to it the red brick school house and gave the state the site for the Soldiers' home. He built the Gaylord hotel, and his family made possible the Episcopal church nitre. Mr. Talbott was over six feet tall, wiry, erect, alert and powerful. Ile was absolutely with- out fear and wits respected and fear- ed throughout the territory of Mon- tana. As one of his friends puts it, \he was a man who would always go through with his friend.\ He was a public spirited and generous citi- zen and quite a large part of the for- tune he ntade was dicsipate(l in help- ing the friends of his early life and FROM SHELBY' TO IRO 11:1\A Alf MAPS THIS MON LASS ia) This is Miss Patricia Salmon, late of Shelby, now of Broadway, New York. (lever Newspapermen who had been sent out to report the big fight saw her do her set in a tent show. They told the big managers in New York about her talent, and now she is with the Ziegfeld Follies, first show of its kind in the great metropolis. By R. R. KILROY Patricia Salmon, late of Shelby, Mont., the little tent -show singer whom the newspaper men at the Dempsey -Gibbons fight brought out, is the talk of New York. She is Broadway's newest, brightest star and will twinkle nightly from now on in Flo Ziegfeld's far-famed Follies. Patricia, or Pat, as she was known on Shelby's mushroom Rialto, has just arrived in the big town and will make her debut. She holds the world's record for the long and high jump. Only a few weeks ago she was earning $20 a week in Shelby. Now she has a suite at the Ritz - Carlton, a French maid and a salary; that is to say she is no longer working for wages. • • • The Irish lass, with the glorious Irish oyes, an Irish laugh and, best of all, an Irish voice that is tuned to set all those, who came to him for assist- ance.

All last week she broke into big type in the New York papers. There was so much to do and so many people to help her do it. Her first day was spent in a shopfest with no less a personage as guide and angel than Billie Burke, who is Mrs. Ziegfeld in real life. Ac- cording to the New York Sun, Patsy, who arrived in \a regular movie cow- girl costume,\ was quickly' made to bloom resplendent as the Mlles of the valley. • • • We read: \For hours MISR Burke sat in the critic's chair at a shop in Fifty - Seventh street while Miss Patricia was outfitted from top to toe—even- ing gowns, sport clothes, afternoon dresses, dozens of all sorts of silky trifles, hats and shoes, and a long, gray squirrel coat. \Miss Burke and her protege lunched at the St. Regis a litte later, and the young lady from Montana learned a few fine points about mix- ing salad dressing. Last night from the vantage from the front row she learned just what sort of show she was going to be in. Afterward she visited various cafes and roof gardens and returned to her hotel a good while later, too weary to whisper more than \one wonderful bust!\ in the ear of her French maid before she went to sleep.\ • • • When I went to Shelby they were telling a good story about Patricia. One of the special writers who ar- rived several days ahead of the fight was paying much attention to the vivacious little show -girl. Ile, by the way, was one of those who afterward blazoned her name in a metropolitan daily, and what, more does a rising star need?
