THE REPUBLICAN RALLY.
Marshal Botkin at Capllce Hall

Msrshal Botkin at Caplice Hall.
It was not known until noon yes
terday that Marshal BOtkin would
address the citizens of Butte last
evening upon the political issues of
the day. But the faithful made the
most of their opportunity. and when
Judge c. s. Warren called the meet
ing to order in Caplice Hall. there
were Democrats enough present with
the few Republicans to make the as
semblage as respectable in appear
ance as it was in numbers.
Marshal Botkin is pleasing, en-
tertaining speaker and always IN
terests if he does not instruct his
audience. Last evening he INDUCED
in the usual Republican platitudes
about a high protective tariff; re-
ferred to the wise administration of
the government under Republican
auspices; touched upon the total
depravity of Democrats; emphasized
the necessity of electing Judge
Knowles as Delegate to Congress
and otherwise tickled the ears
of the despondent Republicans
present. and probably inspired a
hope in the breast of few that VIC
tory would crown his efforts. AS
the hopelessness of the Republican
cause is we'll known here the Mar
shars remsrks were as heartily en-
joyed by Democrats as by Republic
cans. Marshal Botkin is alwas well
come to Butte. His social qualities
and gentlemanly bearing have
brought within his circle
of friends large NUM- Der
of Democrats who are ever
ready to liste n to his story of h Nv
Maginnis Eeat him two years ago.
The Marshal tells the joke upon him.
self and though he does not appear
to enjoy it much his audiences sur
round all the fun.

NOBLE AIMS N LIFE.
Rev. Charles II. Strong's Talk to Young
Men Last Night.

Men Last Night.
Rev. Charles H. Strong continued his
popular lectures at st. Johns Church
last evening. His subject was "Noble
Aims in Life" His text was jeremiah
tx. 93:2Es9Thus saith the Lord: Let
not the wise man glory in his wisdom,
neither let the mighty man glory in his
might; let not the rich man glory in his
riches. But let him that glorieth glory in
this: That he understandeth and knOweth
Ne. that am the Lord which exercise
loving kindness, judgment and righteous
ness in the earth; for in these things /
delight, saith the Lord"
In order 10 arrive at an understanding
Of what was the nOblest aim IN lie the
preacher hastily sketched various objects
for which men live. every man. ne
said, s'has something on which ne prldes
himself. and his character can be estl-
mated from what he values most. Learn
Ing, riches ana strength cannot De count
ed the highest aims men can nave ne
considered it an unfortunate thing Tor
man not to have an object in which he
takes pride. To have a noble aim is al
WAYS the grandest condition OF success
There are men who nave no ambition In
life, Many are growing up without a
| sense of responsibility because they nave
been constantly cared tor by their parents.
Daniel Webster said that the grandest
thought that ever passed through mans
mind was that Of personal responsibility.
Men who wait for something to turn up
| and hang around on political parties IN
order to get office, in which there IS much
paw and little work, are not fulfilling their
obligations.
The prophet in the text does not say thal
a man is not to have riches and strength
and learning, but that he IN securing
! these things must look higher. These are
not the chief things on which TO base the
objects of life.
In speaking of the requirement OF
knowledge the preacher said: KNOW
edge is sometimes ridiculous. some
De0ple can tell you the middle verse OF
| the Bible, ard will ask you what is the
longest or the shortest verse OF the BlDle:
| of what use is such knowledge as TINS
1t is disabusing the power to secure
| learning"
The crowning aim of life should be the
knowledge Of God. Whatever may be
YOUR aim, whether learning or riches, iol-
| low Gods commandments, and commune
| a knowledge Of God with your occupation
ON a knowledge of His love aim TO base
| the object of your manhood.

SUNDAY SCHOOL MISSIONARIES.

Sixteenth Anniversary OF the Trinity
Missionary Society Last Night.
The sixteenth anniversary ofthe Trinity
Sunday School Missionary Society at
Trinity Church last evening was a deeply
interesting service. The church was
filed with the congregation, only the
pews in the main aisle being reserved
for the school. At the hour for
opening the service the schools of
Trinity and Marvin, headed by
Superintendents Reppard and Miller
and the officers of the schools, marched in
from the Sunday school room singing:
"The Children are Gathering From Near
and From Far" After marching through
the aisles and being seated the pastor
read an appropriate selection of scripture.
The school then sang:
There are lights by the shore OF that country,
Where my bark amid perils steer;
And they ever grow brighter and brighter,
As that glorious haven near.
At the conclusion of the singing the
creed was recited, and prayer was offered
by the pastor.
Miss Annie f. Bowman very distinctly
and admirably recited 1.-The Masters
Questions" a missionary selection. This
was followed by the report of the Treas
urer. Mr.. z. l.. Neidlinger, which showed
the collections of the year between $3.50
and 5000 for the missionary cause.
This was followed by the song:
I want to be a worker for the Lord.
| want to love and trust his holy word.
1 want TO sing and pray, and be busy ev'ry
day
In the vineyard OF the Lord.
A pleasing dialogue on missions by
Miss Mary McAleer, Miss Annie +. Bow
man. and Miss Josie f. White followed
and was listened to with close attention.
The pastor, Rev. L. t. Christian. gave
short talk on missionary work, illustrat-
ing the efforts made to Christianize the
heather world by those who are thousands
Of miles distant and in some slight way
contributing to the spread Of the gospel.
After more singing by the school, Miss
Carrie III. Wade very beautifully recited
'sLight to the Heathen," a composition for
the occasion. The Superintendent, Mr..
Il. b. Reppard, made brief address in
lieu of a report, urging the importance Of
the great missionary work.
A dialogue written for the occasion and
entitled "The Young Worker" was the
next feature on the programme. Masters
Elliott 5. Payge and james l.. Mock did
credit in the part they took in its presen-
tatiOn. This was the last of the recita-
tiOns, and was followed by singing:
The morning light is breaking,
The darkness disappears,
The sons Of earth are waking

4 nraIIeious Sidewalk Trap.

About 7:lJ o'clock last evening col
Ored couple on their way to church met
with a mishap on Bryan street, in the
neighborhOOd Of the Market, which might
have resulted seriously. Some malicious
fellow had stretched a wire across the
sidewalk about the height OF a grown
persons neck. so that pedestrians walk
ing rapidly would be caught under the
chin. such an accident might cause fatal
results. As il was the man was Knocked
nearly of his feet. The wire caught the
woman across the cheek, but fortunately
with slight injury. The trap was a das-
tardly arrangement. and the miscreants
who fixed it up should be severely pun
ished il caught.
