ICE-HOUSES BURNED.
A Serious Loss by Lightning of Uninsured
Property.

A Serious Loss by Lightning of Uninsured
Property.
About o'clock Sunday evening, dur
ing the thunder storm, lightning struck
the ice-houses located directly south of
the pump-house of the Great Falls Wa
ter company and in an instant the entire
seven, four belonging to Fletcher ~
johnson and three to Joe Herring were
in flames. An alarm was turned into
the central fire station and in an unusu-
ally short time the department was out
Flames rolling over Prospect hill showed
where the fire was and, Notwithstanding
the heavy roads, the department was
soon on the scene. 1t was found that
the hose they carried would not reach
to the fire and piece was obtained a,
the pump-house. 1t did not couple vel
and considerable power was lost. The
iiremen made a fight for one and q
half hours, but with the high wind pre-
vailing and their unavOidably late ar
rival could not do much good. Herring
lost everything aud Fletcher d johnson
saved only small amount Of ice. There
was no insurance on either the build
ings or their contents. Mr.. Fletcher
had men and lumber on the scene be
fore the sun was up yesterday morning
and will try and save some OF the nov
scarce and valuable article.

DEATH OF DIR. NEWMAN.
After Lingering Illness He Went to the
Better World on Sunday.

\ After Lingering Illness He Went to the
Better World on Sunday.
DR.. j. B. Newman, the well-known
physician, died at his home in this city
about noon ON Sunday. He was taken
sick several months ago with a peculiar
stomach trouble that bafIled the skill of
physiciane, and although he often rallied
it was only to suffer relapses and his
4 death was not unexpected. He himself
kept up hope when his family and ply
sicians despaired, but the weak body
could not do as the mind willed and
Sunday the sad news came that he was
dead.
j. b. Newman, M. D., was born in
Orange county, Virginia, Feb. 2, 18A7.
He passed his boyhood there and COM
\ pleted the course of the public schools,
4 after which he graduated from the Uni
4 versity Of Virginia and also from the
New York Polyclinic. In 1873 he went
to Richmond, Va, where he practiced
three years, was then appointed surgeon
in the United States army and ordered
70 Fort Shaw, Montana, where he ar
rived in April, 1876. After remaining
IS Fort Shaw five years he was trans
ferred to Fort Logan. He occupied the
posltion at Fort Logan until August,
1883, when he resigned the position and
opened an Office at Sun River Crossing,
" then one of the most prosperous towns in
the state. He had large practice in all
( PARTS of northern Montana, but in 1889
his health failed and he made trip to
the Pacific coast cities in search of a
n LooIthf,,l location Patnrnipn he
Z decided to locate in Great Falls, which
was just beginning to fulfill the predic-
tions OF it's founders, aud in April, 1890,
be opened an office in this city. In a
few months he formed partnership
with DR.. r. p. r.. Gordon, which con
tinued until short time before his last
illness. In 1891 he was appointed a
member of the state board of medical
examiners by Gov. Toole and was hon
ored with other high positions.
He was married to Miss Fannie T.
Gordon of Fredericksburg, Va, Jan. l.
1870, and she and two daughters sur
vive him.
DR.. Newman was kind and loving
father and husband and lived pure
Christian life. He was member of the
Episcopal church and took great inter
est in all religious work, being president
Of the Great Falls Bible society and the
first vice-president of the Great Falls
Y. M. G. A.
The funeral services were held yester.
day morning at 10 o'clock in the Episco
pal church and the body was inferred in
Highland cemetery The funeral ad
dress by the Rev. DR.. Wasson was one
OF the most appropriate and consoline
ever preached in Great Falls. The bieI
was attended by his old-time friends
and neighbors. They were: f.. g
Maclay, Robert Vaughn, +. George
Heldt, John Shepherd, j. ii. Mcknight
Frank Webster, j. II. Athey, and r. S
Ford; followed by the North Montan;
District Medical society as guard o
honor. The floral offerings from sympa
thetic hands were profuse.

THE NEW WATER POWER.
ceased.

Turbine Wheels and Other Machinery
for the Great Plant Have Arrived.
Several carloads of machinery for the
Townsite company's great power plant
at Black Eagle falls have arrived within
the last few days, and there is now every
prospect that the mill and elevator will
soon be in operation. A 900. horse power
turbine wheel with its shaft weighs over
10000 pounds, and other portions of the
works are bulky and hard to handle. A
derrick was required to unload them.
Work will be pushed now on the
power transmission towers, the wheels
and cables for which will come all ready
to put in place. 1t is confidently assert
ed that, unless some unforeseen delay oc.
ours, the power will be ready for opera

Review of Reviews.

ia this period of depression when a
good many older periodicals have been
hard beset it is interesting to learn that
the Review of Reviews, although COM
paratively so young, has won position
as impregnable as any other periodical
that could be named in the United
States, and that it's circulation is not
only solidly maintained, but steadily in.
creasing through the intrinsic merits OF
the periodical. The Review has become
necessity to large constituency; and
whereas in times of financial depression
many people give up their luxuries
there IS always steady market for the
PLAN necessaries. Fortunately for the
Review of Reviews, its readers consider
it as a prime requisite rather than d
casual luxury, and 30 its editions are not
curtailed by the influence of current
financial disasters.

Deceptions of Wild Birds.

Falcons, hawks-the largest species
can compress their feathers and look very
slim, if they think it necessary to do SO.
As to the owls, they can hump up into
any position they think most suitable. 1t
is useless to look for these self preserving
traits in any Of the family kept in ZOO
logical collections, for the birds are so
accustomed to see large numbers of peo-
pie passing and repassing, OF standing in
front of them, that they treat the whole
matter with perfect Indifference. They
know that at n certain time their food
will be brought them, ana that they are
otherwise perfectly safe. Then the rap
torres in wild state have bloom on
their plumdce like the bloom on 4 bunch
of grapes. which is not often seen when

HIS MEMORY HONORED.
The Bar Association Adopts Resolutions
of Respect to Colonel Leaning.

The Bar Association Adopts Resolutions
of Respect to Colonel Leaning.
Pursuant to call the Cascade County
Bar association met yesterday morning
at 10 o'clock in the district court room.
There was good attendance of attor-
neys when Judge Benton announced
that the committee which was appoint
ed to draft resolutions on the death Of
Col. M. j. Leaning, a former member Of
the association, was ready to report. A.
j. Shores was chosen chairman, and the
committee reported, through it's chair
man, II. E. Brady, the following resolu-
tions:
Resolved, That while all that is mortal
has been relegatod to the source whence
it came, that there is much OF the life
yet remaining that will endure through
out the ages. We hold in affectionate
remembrance his manly virtues and ex-
cellence of character. and attest his
worth both as lawyer and citizen.
His fitness for busy, active career
was early in life impaired by the wound
he received in the discharge Of duty;
nevertheless his activity Of mind and in
domitable energy of purpose raised him
above the obstacle that would have dis
couraged less buoyant spirit; and with
the fixedness of purpose to excel IN hie
chosen profession he persevered in the
midst OF physical suffering, and his
ready, vigorous mind grasped the ab.
struse principles of Jurisprudence and
we proudly testify to his excellence as q
master of law, to his ability as safe
counselor and adviser; nor was he less
efficient in the exposition of his conclu
sions of law and fact He was gentle
man of profound learning, man whose
friendship was steadfast and knew ut
deceit; citizen of lofty integrity and
purity of motives, whose course no cir
cumstance or inducement could swerve
from the path of rectitude.
To his brethren of the bar his memory
will be held in grateful appreciation and
his example of steady. unfailing industry
in the midst of difficulties be viewed as g
worthy example for emulation, and his
nobility of character will be cherished
for having contributed to the long list o
those who have ennobled the legal pro
fession and given stability and character
to civilization.
In token of the esteem in which oul
departed brother was held by the bar
we recommend that the foregoing bt
spread upon the records Of this court al
lasting monument to his worth, an(
one which shall endure as long as court
of justice shall continue.

After the adoption of the resolution
Judge Benton spoke of the high esteem
in which Col. Leaning was held by hi
fellow attorneys, although they ha
known him but short time. Jane

spoke, paying an eloquent tribute to tn
intelligence and integrity of the dt
