The Gibson Light Guards.

The new militia company Of Great
Falls, sixty-two strong, met at the council
chambers last evening and proceeded to
do the proper thing by calling their
promising company the "Gibson Light
Guards in honor Of Hon. Paris Gibson.
The boys tried to find their God Father
to get a speech out Of him but he, with
his usual modesty, kept out of the way OF
a scene. We have no doubt but that he
appreciated the compliment just the
same.
]. W. Stanton was elected chairman of
the meeting and W. P. Dodson as secro-
tary.
A. Jensen was unanimously chosen
captain, Chas. IL. Green first lieutenant
and Howard Crosby second lieutenant.
The formation Of this and like military
organizations cannot be too highly com
mended nor TOO we'll supported, if tic
members are subjected to that thorough
discipline which usually obtains in mill
tary affairs. While the public ever hope
for and expect continued peaceful times
no one knows the day nor hour WHOM
trained men will be temporarily needed
to smite the hand Of lawlessness, which,
judging from recent tragic events, has
not yet forgotten its cunning. Those
who have enlisted in this worthy cause
will doubtless remember that they have.
duties to perform, as well as to promote
physical culture and have a good time.
Then fill a bumper to the Gibson Light
Guards. They're all right.

Hurrall for the Fourth.

The Fourth Of July committee on ar
rangements had full meeting last eve
ming and completed their plans for !.
splendid celebration.
Sufficient funds have been raised from
the ever generous citizens to defray ex-
penses.
At $50 a. m the line will form at the
| engine house on Second avenue South.
The procession will be lead by Grand
Marshal Coombs assisted by a corps of
aides. He will be followed by the Mayor,
City Council, Pioneer Hook s. Ladder
Company, Arion Society, the Caledonlaus
and members of the G. A. r. Nor would
the procession be complete without the
newly organized Militia Company, the
'Gibson Light Glards," who will appro-
prietely make their debut in public on
that suspicious occasion. The fact that
our own Great Falls Band will furnish
the music is sufficient guarantee that
the day will pass in "harmony."' Pro-
ceeding to the grove on Park Drive, Rev.
John Reed, Jr., will invoke Divine bless
ing, after which Hon. J. B. Leslie will de-
liver the Grafton upon that subject which
is old but yet ever new and soul stirring
always.
In the afternoon races will take place
at the Fair Grounds. A large number of
excellent horses have already been en-
tered for the prizes. The Manitoba will
run special trains for the accommodation
of the crowds who desire to attend the
races. We believe that the Fourth CT
July celebration this year will eclipse
anything Of the kind ever undertaken
here. That is saying Il great deal, for
Great Falls has proven itself enthusiastic
in patriotic displays evere since its tinted
stage. The days festivities will b,
brought to a joyous termination at the
Hook & Ladder Company's Ball at the
Park hotel This will make the third
annual hall of the Company and will
doubtless be as great a social and financial
success as its predecessors.

| The mention of Clark Tingley's name
in the papers recalls an old story which
came from Chicago. Mr.. Tingley is re-
puted to be quite wealthy in tlocks anil
herds, but like many other rich men, he
is not proud. He had taken Il train load
or two of cattle to the great market and
after depositing his money sauntered
listlessly about the city to see the sights
in quiet way, While lingering some
time on a corner policeman took him
in for vagrancy. Protests were in vain
and he was taken to the station where he
was still unable to show up the required
amount to obtain immunity from the
charge. He finally, however, prevailed
upon the officer to conduct him to Ger
tain bank where the cashier paralyzed
the "cop," club and all by stating tha,
the prisoners check was good there fol-
$4,000. Since then the Chicago police
are said to pay especial attention to the
seedily dressed pedestrians within their
gates, thinking they may he entertaining

Referring to the articles which have
been going the newspaper rounds about

we think it be would better to let all

of the so called man is enough to cause a
night of sleeplessness.
We are receiving daily, from eastern

Gov. White: am credibly informed
that party of Indians are intent on
wrecking the N. P. trains between Raw
ALI and Jocko. The Indians are now in
the hills and will remain there until the
troops are withdrawn; which will be
sometime today.
Reliable half breeds say that the In
dlans swear vengence ON the railroad
company as they say that the Indians
killed were shot from the train. The
Indians have sent their women and child
rem to the hills, which is a fair indication
that the trouble is not over.
The forests in the vicinity of Jocko
have been fired by the Indians. Supt. G.
W. Dickinson asks for proper protection
for his tracks, trains aud buildings and
requests that the troops be ordered to re-
main. Signed,
