Providence Absent-Minded

Among those who know him, Thos.
A. Edison has a reputation for ready
wit, and one of the incidents which
helped to make that reputation a
to do with a church in Orange, N. j..
There had been a series OF severe
electrical storms, and the vestrymen
had discussed the ACCESSIBILITY of plac-
inc, lightning rods on the edifice. They
were evenly divided for and against
it, and decided to APPOINT a committee
of me-, a pompous and self-sutficient
old gentleman, to call on Edison, get
his opinion on the efficacy OF light
ming rods and abide by his decision.
Edison was very busy and in no
mood to be disturbed when the COM
mittee called. The visitor in his
loiftiest style explained that he had
called to secure the inventors opin-
ion of lightning rods, and concluded
with:

are a mighty good thing on a build

What sort of a building is it,

MORAL WAVE COMING.
Good People Of Butte Expect Great
Things from Davey.

Butte, Jan. 12.-[Special to The Ga
zette. Mayor Davey of this city has
gone to Helena to urge upon the leg
islature the passage of a bill placing
the police department of this and
one or more large cities In the civil
service list. The move is but n Of
quite a large number of reform
schemes which the mayor has inaugu-
rated for the city. 1t is generally be-
lieved now that the city of Butte will
experience a great moral wave in
relation to gambling before many
days have passed and that Mayor
Davey intends to shut down for good
every form of gambling.

to decide upon a location. The re-

Martha j. Davis has filed a COM
plant in an action for divorce against
John P. Davis, on the ground of de-

that she and the defendant were in

1887, and that September 5, 1901, with
out any cause or p%rovocation her hus-
band deserted her and since then has
lived separate and apart from her

the city. A few days ago, Stoddard,
a s%outhside wheel wright, received an
order for 10 of these wagons from
one firm, delivery of all of them to

wagon on the range has almost en-

A FEW JABS
MR. HEINZE AND Mr.. DIXON
CAME TO BLOWS.
HOSTILITlES SOON ENDED
Heinze Applied Vile Epithet to Judge
Knowles-Resented by
Dixon.

Butte, Jan. 11.-Because he is said
to have applied and repeated a. vile
epithet against Judge Knowles of the
federal bench, F. Augustus Heinze
was struck by John M. Dixon, a we'll
known attorney, in the barroom OF
the Thornton hotel about 1890 o'clock
last night. The result was a fight of
short duration, in the course of which
MI. Dixon was struck on the nose,
causing not a little blood to flow. Both
men then clinched and MI. Heinze,
who is much the heavier man, forced
Mr.. Dixon down on one of the grill
seats, where he checked him until
the attorney, in response to a ques-
ton, expressed a willingness to dis
continue hostilities. Neither of the
principals to the trouble were injur-
ed. They departed in different direc-
lions with friends. The report of the
fight soon spread and was generally
| discussed in barrooms, clubs and hotel
| Hobbies.
1t appears hat Mr.. Dixon, Gilbert
Miles of Missoula and DR.. Nat Lon
doner were in the barroom of the
hotel when Heinze entered. He &C
cepted an invitation to join the par
ty, it is said, and a general friendly
conversation followed. The CONVEX
sation drifted, it is said, to politics,
and incidentally to the successes and
failures of Mr.. Heinze until finally af-
ter some time Heinze is said to have
applied a vile epithet to Judge
Knowles.
At the alleged epithet MI. Dixon is
said to have declared that Mr.. Heinze
must retract his statement. Mr..
Heinze is said to have refused to
make any retraction, whereupon Mr..
Dixon took off his coat and declared,
it is said, that there must be a re
traction or a fight. The declaration
of Mr.. Dixon is said to have provok-
ed from Mr.. Heinze a repetition OF
the alleged epithet, and a statement
to the effect that he would fight Mr..
Dixon.
Immediately afterwards Dixon
struck him. Then Mr.. Heinze is said
to have retaliated with a blow on Mr.
Dixon's nose. There vas more or less
scufhinp and the men clinched. Mr.
Heinze bearing Mr.. Dixon down or
the grill seal and choking him. After
the men separated an attendant al
the bar wiped the blood from the
leather upholstering Of the seat. The
fight was witnessed by several per
sons, including four or five prize
fighters, who were present bidding
farewell to Jack Munroe.

From Mondays Daily Gazette.
Thanks to the efforts of the trus-
tees of the Parmly Billings Memorial
library the people of Billings are
promised a series of excellent lee
lures during the remaining winter
months, and all on popular subjects
by competent and interesting speak
ers. The gentlemen who have given
their services are connected with the
faculty of the state agricultural col
lege and their ability is so well known
that success of the course is assured.
The first of the course will be a
lecture on Food and Energy" by DR..
F. w. Traphagen, and will be deliv-
ered Friday evening, January %, in
the lecture room of the library. The
doctor will be accompanied by several
assistants and will use a stereopticon
to illustrate his lecture, thereby Civ
ing it added interest and also making
it. more easily understood and com
pretended.
Following this will be a lecture by
DIR. Reid, president of the college, and
he in TURF will be followed by PROBES
sors Brewer and Currier. Neither Of
these three has announced his sub
ject, but it is understood that Pro
fessor Brewer will speak on the Ii
brary or some literary subject, while
Professor Currier will most likely
have music for his topic, as he is al
accomplished musician and singer o
more than ordinary ability and sweet
ness of voice.

T From Miles City comes the news
that Colonel Charles Gould, well
known here as former livestock agent
Of the Burlington, has been stricken
for the second time with paralysis. A
little over a year ago he suffered from
a stroke and for a time his life was
despaired of. The second attack is
said to have been even more severe,
but at last accounts he appeared to
be in a fair way to ecover.
ALTHOUGH not yet fully decided up
on, it is though that the fire depart
ment will be able to emove into its
new quarters tomorrow or Monday.
So many postponements have been
necessary by reason of the failure
of the contractors to complete the
building within the time promised
that the members dislike to set any
particular date for the transfer, blu
they hope that this time no further
disappointment is in store for them.
Billiards and deep SHOWS to the
east and washouts and landslides to
the west still continue to play havoc
with timetables and trains on the
Northern Pacific. 1t is said that west
of Spokane the road has been TEN
porarily abandoned and train S are
now run between Spokane and the
coast via Pendleton and the Oregon
Railway and Navigation company's
tracks. The ~Burlington's western
train for the present runs no further
than Ellensburg, Wash, beyond which
point the Northern Pacific track has
been rendered impossible.
Judging from the news that comes
from Livingston, the prediction that
the recent great reduction made in
the force of the Northern Pacific shops
at that place would be only tempo
rary was not without foundation. 1t
is said that already material addi-
tions are making to the shop crews
and it is estimated that by the end OF
the present month no fewer than 100
additional men will be at work. An
immense amount of repairing to roll
ing stock and locomotives will have
to be made, as both are said to be
in exceptionally bad shape, and the
force now employed is inadequate
rs the demands made upon it.
