Leatle died at her rest. dence, Broadway, yesterday mornIng at 4:30 after a lingering Illness of over a year's duration. While the end was not unexpected by relatives and friends, nevertheless the news of Leslie's death came as a great shock to large number who had known her during her residence in this city. The end came peacefully, as was befitting her blameless life, and when she passed away she was surrounded by ber husband and children. She was conscious until the last moment.

and up until a few instants before she died she signalled her recognition to those who gathered around her bedside. For many monthe past Mira Leslie had been growing weaker and at midnight it was evident to the members of the household that she was slowly sinking. During the early hours of the morning, although life was ebbing fast, Mrs. Lestle kept up: her courage, and expressed her faith in the God she had served so faithfully during her long life. The bedside watchers sadly saw her.

strength vanish, and at 4:30 she breathed her last. Mrs. Leslie was born In Columbia, April 22, 1833, and at the time of her death was 67 years of age. At the age of 17 she became a member of the Baptist church. in which denomination she has been prominent ever since.

She married Ex-Gov. Leslle 41 years ago. Both had been married previously, and both had children by their former marriages. She cate to Helena when Mr. Leadle was appointed governor of Montana and- has resided here since, Rex fore coming here Mr8.

Lealle WAR an invalid and bad not risen from her bed In 12. years. After her arrival she recovered her health. which she retained until about two years ago. Last winter she went to California to hope that the lower alttude and warmer climate would relleve, her, but the availed her nothing.

She returned to Helena last April, and -since then her condition was lone of continuous pain, and during the greater part of the time she spoke only with the greatest difficulty. Leslie was Mrs. Kuykendall, and resided at Bolwing Green, when she meet Mr. Leslie, who was then a rising young lawyer in that state. Since her arrival in Helena she has been a prominent member of the First Raptist church, and belonged to the Ladies' Aid and Foreign Mission societies, and no church gathering was complete without her presence.

Her charities were. boundlere, and no needy person ever appealed to ver in vain: and many who did not ask, were discovered and alded her by her untiring efforts to do good. One son by her former marriage wurst vives her. Rev. William M.

Kuykendall, of Bowing Green, and three by her second husband, Dr. Robert Lealle, of Livingston; Mrs. Walter Shobe, and Miss Emily, both of this city. The following tribute is paid, Mrs. Leslle by Rev.

C. B. Allen, who was pastor of Mrs. Leslie's church in this city for over 12 years: will be days many before those who knew and honored her blameless life shall accustom themselves to think that- the -is no longer in their midst. The home ones will say again and again in their hearts, 'Mamma' is in the other room.

live, and yet if we live in not her life was long. Mary A. Maupin was porn in Columbia, April 22, 1833. Her childhood and early years of womanhood were spent in the city in which she was born. At the of 17 she became a follower of Jeage of Nazareth, and was baptized into the fellowship of the Baptist church her native city.

Her religious life was ever unostentatious, but sincere and ardent. She believed that Christianity is not no much a creed to be accepted and a dogma to be asserted. as it is character to be molded and a life to lived. And that lite to be lived must be so far as possible. an exact reproduction of.

the character and Jesus, her Lord and Savior. Believe? Yes, she believed with all her heart the rare, old, old truth revealed in the bible. Her bellef was her life, 1. her profound conviction of the truth: as revealed in the bible was that which made her character saintly, her fife beautiful and its going down here triumphant. Her life was remarkable.

From the date of her marriage to the husband who mourns her lore, much of her life has been spent in the publie gaze. Twice was her husband the governor of Kentucky, and In 1887 was appointed governor of the then territory of Montana. In these posttions of prominence and responsibility she was her husband's trusted and honored companion. In this high position her: life WAR still one of wweet aimplicity. She was still the beloved.

the the Athletic Events, With a Dance in the Evening, Gave Every One a Chance For Enjoyment--The Prize Labor Day was generally oberved Helena yesterday. Thourande of poor pie, Irrespective of their calling or cone dition In. life united in celebrating the one day in the year set aside for those who toll, in manner betting the Probably never before in the history of this wan there no plete of work every line an was the care yesterday, Employer and employes alike laid aside the dution Incident to their dally vocation and with but one common purpose rave the celebration and all the attending I urea their undivided attention. It he doubtful fiver a more -politan crowd was seen in Helena than that which assembled at Central park in the afternoon, to either take part in the or as Men. women and children gathered from all parts of the city and surrounding try, made up a crowd variously: entimated at from 5,000 to 6,000 In Miners touched elbows with the bonE ton af the city, tradesmen mingled freely with the merchant all on equal footing.

and apparently with the one object in view, to make the celer bration the success it deserved. It the weather man made special arrangements for a day that would fully meet the requirements of a fret: class celebration he could not have proved upon the condition yesterday. With clear alien and old Sol sending down rays that were neither too warm nor 100 cold, the weather was all that could be desired for the comfort of the thousands that took part. Taking vantage of the favorable weather and every Inducement--offered for good. time, crowds of people began to pour into the park carly in the afternoon.

Every street car and other vehicle that could pomsibly be brought into requisie tion carried all the people they would hold. The street care especially did a rushing business, running with great frequency during the afternoon and evening. An there was littte it thing going on in the morning at the park, few people went out before hoot. Publle offices were closed the entire day, were the banka. Mer.

chants and businese house of every description in most cases eloped their places of business at. noon. The celebration was of course held under the auspices of the labor organisationa, and it was due to the efforts of the members the com: mittee on arrangements, appointed by the unions, that the affair passed off as smoothly as it did. When it in take en into consideration that. those who were instrumental in getting up the affair, had but a very short time in which to make all the necessary arrange: mento, it must be said that they did remarkably well.

The programme carried out with warcel; a bitch. the crowds were orderly, and an a whole the affair was more of a succem than its projectors had While it cannot be said that polities out any figure in the celebration. it In worthy of note that a mere mention by one of the speakera of the fact that Senator W. A. Clark had, without any attempt at on The part of him employes, granted them an eight-hour work day, was the signal for ed cheera.

Roger E. Skelly, president of the International Stone union, was the speaker and in making mention of Senator Clark's attitude on the shorter work proposition, be disclaimed any intention of bringing politics into the celebration, but he. lieved that an act of that kind on the part of a large employer of labor WAR certainly, worthy of praise. That part of Mr. speech caused one of the most notable demonstrations of the day, and gave the lie to the too often expressed belief that organized labor in unappreciative of the efforts made by those who would aid their cause.

The address of Hon. Joseph Oker, the regular orator of the day, was also enreceived, and he WAR Ar his best throughout its delivery. Mr. Oker revlewed in an interesting ner some of the great things labor had been able to accomplish, not the least of which was through the efforta of union the fare of that seemed almost impossible to overcome, labor had moved forward with tremendous stride accomplished things that a decade ago were indeed undreamed of. He believed.

however, that there still remained much for organized labor to do before it had anywhere near secured what it in entliled to of the products of toil. The speaker referred to the growth of the movement in Montana, calling tion to the need at this particular time of united action on the part of the tolling wage workers to maintain what they have already secured. Mr. Oker believed that laboringmen re. sOFT to the ballot if they would more of what in justly theirs, if the ballot was ured proparly by the ingmen there was no reason why work In many of the richest mines, now idle, could.

not be resumed, and many new ones developed. "It in a question of bread and butter with you, my friends, and I trust that you and all the workingmen of thin state may vote intelli. gently and for their best interests Mr. Oker said in conclusion. The programme of sporta and gamie was an elaborate one In some of the contesta the finish was close and citing.

especially in tome of the ning races. The games were quite free from any betting. The drilling contest excited more interest than any other one content. But two teams entered the contest, and the result close, that the judges were obliged measure the holes over mveral times. before they were absolutely ware of which had won.

The Issuance of a circular to the presbyteries of the Presbyterian churches by the general committee on creed revision is exciting the interest of members of that denomination in this city who are generally in favor of the Four questions have been sent out from the creed revision committee which met in Pligburg a few days ago, and the different presbyterles throughout the country wilt vote on them at the fall meeting which generally, occurs the second Tuesday in October. The followings inquiries have been sent out: First-Do you desire a revision of our confersion of faith? Or Second--Do you desire a supplemental, explanatory statement? Or Third--Do you desire to supplement our present doctrinal standards with. a briefer statement of the doctrines. "most eurely. belleved among um, pressing in simple language the faith of the church in loyalty to the system of doctrine contained in holy scripture and held by the reformed churches! Or -Do you desire the dismissal of the whole subject, so that our doetrinal standarde shall remain an they are, without any change whether revisional, supplemental or It in usually conceded, that at least two-thirds of the presbyteries will answer yes to the firet question.

The question does not involve any dogma or belief of the creed, but merely proposes to have the expression of belief couched in different language, and revised as -to meet- the -present time. Some minor statements may be omitted but these will not be fundamental points in the creed, but rather of secondary importance. The creed will remain as it has always been in all matters of importance, and no radiest, changes will be Rev. N. Sloan, pastor of the Presbyterian church, said yesterday in regard to the matter: "While the action of the committee la viewed with.

considerable interest by all members of the church, so far it has done nothing of any importance, It was appointed for the purpose of formulating a set of questions to be submitted to the different presbyteries in the United States. These questions will be sent out, and action will be taken on them at the regular fall meeting. which takes place Th October. Until then it. 18 impomelble to tell what the result of the vote will be, but believe that the proposition to revise the creed will receive the majorities of the votes.

I am In favor of It, and I think that I am with the majority on the subject."
