and costly testimonial to his valuable ser

partment. Al q o'clock, when the day-shift
officers report OF. and the night force re-
ports on, instead Of waiting to be relieved
tho night and day men all gathered at the
police court room together with Chief Ley
den and City Attorney Cottcr.
Tho chief had been expressly invited to
bo present and he did not know what to
mako OF tho unusual gathering until Mr..
Cotter took tho Judges seat, and after
calling the meeting to order. requested
the chief to stand up. Mr.. Leydcn did so
with an expression Of blank astonishnent
on his face and an apparent arr OF nerv-
business which Is very unusual for hini.
Mr.. Cottcr then drew suspicious looking
case from his pocket, and opening
IL, produced beautiful badge OF
office which he presented to the chief IN q
neat and very appropriate Little speech.
In his address Mr.. Cot,er said that tie
hadgo was presented to the chief as .
mark of the esteem and confidence in
which he is held by his many friends. He
complinicutcd him on tho faithful per-
Torrance of his duty. which ne said had
always been most satisfactory not to his
associates slone, nut also to the citizens
generally aud the city government.
Tho chief was manifestly at loss Tor
something to say as he received the hand.
some badge, but after some hesitation he
managed feelinaly TO express his thanks.
Afterwards the cigars were passed around
aud after u general handshaking the
pleasant gathering broke up. The badge
Is almost an exact counterpart which was
presented to City Marshall McNichols
somo time ago. II bears the state seal
aud motto surrnounted by an eagle
and in large letters the words Chief
OF Police. Butte, Mont" On the
Presented to James L-yden by the po-
lice force aud friends of Butte. Mont.
July 20, 1884," The badge is of solid gold
and Is set with two large and brilliant dia-
monds. Tho workmanship throughout
is OF the highest order, and IL reflects
great credit on the j. II. Leyson Jcwelry
company, who were the makers. The
badge will he on exhibition In ono OF their
windows for few days and will attract
great admiration.
To-night's presentation was richly de.
served and fitting testimonial to one al
tho most efficient and capable police Off.
GERS that Butte has ever had. "Jim
Leyden. as everybody knows him. is an of
ficcr whose capabilities are too well
known 10 need any comment. He Is rs
honest as the day is long. and recognizes
neither friends nor influence when q duty

the police force has attained under the
new administration is due IN no small do
gree to Chief Leyden's experience.
