VALUE OF TRUE CULTURE.
Hew 1t Differs FROM What Is Known q
knowledge.

Hsu 1t Differs FROM What Is Known O
knowledge.
Or. Edward Caird, tho master Of
Baaiol, in addressing a Glasgow audi.
ence recently ON ''1'he Relation of Gull
ture TO Knowledge" said that the word
culture had certain air of arrogance
md pretension, SO that ono could hard
ly make use OF it without seeming to
be superior person; yet, ON the other
hand, it expressed an idea for which
no other word was quite so appropriate
People meant by 1t more than kaowi-
cdge-more even than science and If
srature- They meant by it science and
literature taken up into the mind and
made one with it, so that they formed
part OF its very substance in addition
10 its natural forces
No sooner did we provide the oppor-
tunities and means of education than
we had to encounter the difficulty o.
30 using them as not to overburden the
mind. Everyone who had had much
experience as teacher must often have
met with cases in which the definition
"over-educated for your intellect"
would apply. The root of the evil, how.
ever. was seldom over-education; in
deed, it might be doubted whether
there was such thing. Over-education
meant education on the wrong things
and on the wrong methods.
In considering what it was that con,
stituted true culture it was necessary
to avoid two opposite errors-the error
of those who would separate culturc
from knowledge. and the more common
error of those who would simply identi
fy il with knowledge.
Speaking more particularly OF cul
ture and knowledge as tho instrument
to culture he said we could not now
take the world at first hand We in.
evitably saw it as interpreted by great
bodies OF literature and science, which
had been the result of the thought OF
those who had gone before them.
Therein lay our privilege and our dan
ger-our privilege. because we had not
now to cope with all the heavy task
of making the universe ineligible, but
took it up at an advanced stage; ouI
danger, because that made it so easJ
20 live n borrowed intellectuallife. I'm
less knowledge had life of Original
activity in us it did not deserve the
name of culture.
DR.. Card declared iE conclusion that
the ways were opened for higher and
more humane kind of culture in the
Goth century than the world had even
before seen.-Chicago Tribune.

murrer Overruled.

Missoula, March GA report was cir
culated here last night that Higgins
Brothers had sold their running stable
but inquiry showed that the rumor was
untrue. Several good offers have been
made for Bill Howard and ST. Croix
but the owners say that they have no
intention of selling. Bill Howard is in
magnificent condition this spring and
his local admirers confidently expect
that the sorrel galloper will knock a
big chunk off the half mile record be-
fore the season closes.
1t is stated on good authority that
Tylar Thompson has Ieased DIR. Puff
and Hal Corbett for the season, his
business engagements rendering it inn
possible for him to take any active
interest in turf matters this season.
This will be regretted, as Mr.. Thomp-
son is one of the square horsemen and
there are not so many of them that
the circuit can afford to lose any. The
horses, however, will be in good hands
and will win If il is in them.

the blizzard and these seems to be some
scheme brooding, so ominous is the
silence. There are four men to be ele-
waited to the position of aldermen in a
short time and the public is anxious to
learn who are to be the victims. In
only one ward-the Fourth-is there
any activity, but that ward gives evil
dence of successfully maintaining its
reputation in political lines. There are
already two aldermanic possibilities
there, Messrs. Jourdan and Merrick.
Mr.. Jourdan is backed by the school
section people and Mr.. Merrlck has the
support of the residents about the rail-
road. The latter faction seems to be
very much in earnest in it's support of
Mr.. Merrick The statement has been
made by some of the members of this
wing. that Mr.. Merrick will be elected
alderman anyway. If he is not nomi-
mated in regular caucus, they will run
him as an Independent and will carry
him through with a rush. They are
certainly very much in earnest, and
that is what counts. From the other
wards not much is heard and there is
no intimation. as yet. whether the citi-
zens' caucus of last year will be repeat
ed or whether there will be a campaign
on party lines. This much is certain
the campaign will be made on the ques-
ton of economy in the administration
of city affairs. There can be no doubt
that the retrenchment which has been
accomplished during the past year
meets with approval of all citizens and
that any further movement in that d.
rection that can be reasonably accom-
plished, will be welcomed.

An Excellent Surgestion.

Missoula, March 6.-Rev. G. H. Saw
yer makes the following excellent sug-
gestion in the last issue of the Christ
ian Helper:
That there is absolutely no provis-
ion made for the entertainment and
care of the strange young men within
our gates is a fact to be regretted by
every Christian. The stranger who
chances to be in our city for a day or
night, finds no place where a hearty
welcome is given, except perhaps the
saloon, gambling house or theater
Even the young men of our city are
sadly neglected by those entrusted with
their welfare. An ounce of prevention
is worth a pound of cure is an axiom
worthy of the careful consideration of
those who are interested In the welfare
OF our young men. A few dollars wise
ly expended will furnish our boys a
place for innocent amusement and gen.
teel recreation and will protect them
from the evil influences of the saloon
and gambling house, and will afford a
friendly shelter to the stranger"

bar took part in a go-as-you-pleas Sc
free-and-easy discussion of the addition
of costs to judgment obtained in the
district court OF course. the question
was not decided. Nobody expected il
to be. But there was a free expression
of opinion and the discussion showed
that the attorneys were evenly divided
as to the discretionary power of the
court. The discussion was a lengthy
one and, while no decision was reached,
everybody had an opportunity to tell
what he thought about it. AS a veteran
attorney said this afternoon: THAT
was about as near an agreement as a
