BRILLIANT STARS TO BE ADDED TO THE GALAXY OP OUR GLORIOUs UNION. Montana, Dakota, Washington and Utah to be Made States-Restraints on the Mormons--Not to Enjoy Nation al Pranchies Until 189., NEw Yoax, December 17.-A Wash ihgton special telegram to the Herald says that the territories of Dakota, Wash ington, Montana and Utah will be ad mitted into statehood. Although Utah has adopted a new constitution which prohibits the perpetuation of polygamy within the territory, congress will make a provision that in the event of her ad mission into the.union as a state, that clause of the constitution shall not be disturbed without consent of congress. It matters not, however, if they are ad mitted at this session they will not be granted right of national franchise until 1892. * _ MONTANA SIUFTINGS.

A FBATERNAL TRIBUTE Besolutions of Condoaence Passed by the Odd FeCows of Choteau HA~L or TErox LODGE No. 18, . O; O. F. COoTSra, Montana, November 19, 1878.-The following resolutions were unanimously adopted at the last meeting of Teton lodge No. 18, I. . O. OF. WHEREAs, Information has been re ceived of the death on the 15th instant, at Fort Macleod, British Northwest terri tory, of our beloved brother, James G. Dunlap, which resulted from exposure in a severe storm while he was in the em ploy of the Cochrane Ranche company, a foreman, and, WHEREAS, Brother Dunlap was, at the time of his death, a member in good standing of this lodge, and was admired by all who new him for his integrity, un tiring energy and devotion to duty and friends, Resolved, That while we mourn the pt loss of a good man and Odd Fellow, and be are moved with sorrow that our brother of was thus cut off in the prime of life and pi usefulness, yet it is a source of consola tion to us that, although young in our or der, he worthily upheld the principles and practiced the precepts of friendship, love and truth. To his bereaved family we extend our heartfelt sympathy, and trust that He, whose all-seeing eye noteth even the sparrow's fall, will look ( down on them in mercy and give them os peace. pesolved, That the hall of this lodge be draped in mourning for the period of 80 days, and that a copy of these resolu tions be furnished to the bereaved fami ly and to the Great Falls Tribune. E. C. GARRETT, W. F. REDDING, SOL COHEN, Committee. Subdued the Flames Yesterday. Of BUTTE, December 17. - Yesterday morning about half past 1 o'clock, whis- di tiles and bells sounded an alarm of fire. The frame building immediatelyopposlte j Lovell Brothers' stable, used by them as a hay warehouse, was discovered to be in flames. The firemen soon had water turned on the burning building, and the hook and ladder company dragged out the flaming bales of hay. The harness and saddlery stock of N. Jubinville was moved across the street, and by ferocious fighting the fire was prevented from spreading, and finally extinguished. The firemen and the assembled citizens work ed nobly to save the property. The build ing in which the hay was stored is almost a total loss, and the store occupied by Mr. Jubinville is damaged considerably. Both of these buildings are owned by Oi Lovell Brothers. Mr. Jubiuville places the damage on his stock at about $500. As the last carload of hay was put in the warehouse some 10 or 12 days ago, and as the building has not been opened since, it is supposed that the fire was the work of an incendiary. Spa A Graceful Tribute. HELENA, December 16.-From the Spo kane Chronicle is extracted the following tribute upon the death of J. E. Hendry. It is from the able pen of J. S. Dickerson, former editor of the Independent, and, coming as it does from a co-worker, it speaks volumes. He says, "The sad news is received over the wires from Helena of the death of J. E. Hendry, the bright and' versitile editor ot the Inpependent. Words fail one who ha. been Mr. Hendry's co-laborer in the nightly toil on the Inde pendent, to express the emotions to which this sad news gives rise. The writer nev er had a pleasanter associate nor one of more varied talent. We can only say that his death is a personal bereavement to the management of the Cronicle, and a loss to the Montana press and people which they must all most keenly feel, for he was ever loyal to every interest of the territory, his bright, busy pen ever inter ested in good and effective work." The Second Attempt. HELENA, December 17.--A second at tempt within a month to burglarize Mor ris Brothers' store in this city, was made yesterday morning and was successful. At 7 o'clock Harry Morris, a nephew of c the propietor, who slept in the store, F awoke to find a man standing over him with a revolver, and another man was go ing through the store with a lantern. As soon as Morris awoke the men bound and gagged him. They then filled a box with silverware, spoons, knives, etc., and made him opel the door to let them out. How d the nmen got in is a mystery. It is sup posed they were secreted in the cellar during' the day. After they had gone, Morris whistled for the police and pursuit was at once commenced. Morris can identify one of them and the police hope to arrest both of them today. The value of- the goods stolen cannot be ascertained. ! Great Falls Boot and Shoe Shop.
