BUTTE, Mont, Jan. 29.-Another case
wherein it is proven that marriage is
failure has been brought to light by a
Butte bride Of five days leaving her
husband. The discovery was made
Saturday night when Kelly, a miner, re-
turned from his shift with the eXpecta-
ton of enjoying meal cooked by his
seventeen-year-old wife. Mrs. Kelly
was not there: neither was she at her
neighbors'; nor did he find her at her
mothers. All her acquaintanceS were
visited, as well as hail where the
bride frequently went to a social dance.
Mr.. Kelly finally heard that his wife
had flown to Deer Lodge and left him,
and he returned to his home with sad
heart. Julia Wilson and James Kelly
were married Jan. 81, but found it
necessary to elope to have their happi-
ness made complete, as the father
of the young lady was bitterly opposed
to the match. They didn't leave the
city, but the young man, it is said,
forged his mother-in-law'S name to
document giving the latter's consent to
the marriage. Procuring the requisite
certificate from the probate court they
lost no time in finding minister. The
girls rather was OF course enfageQ
when he found what had been done and
a few days after the marriage had the
young man arrested for forgery. The
following day the case came up for
hearing and it was thrown out Of court
upon the recommendation of the county
attorney. The marriage was looked
upon as love match. The action of
the young woman has greatly surprised
her friends. This little romance cor
responds almost exactly with one of a
few months ago. the only difference
being that the former bride suffered
double blessedness for six weeks. She
ran off and has not been heard of since.

The Reichstag Approves OF Wiss(
mann'S East A f'riCau Scheme :

mann's East African Scheme.
BERLIN, Jan. 29.-In the reichstag to-,
day the East Africa bill passed the sec-
ond reading after short debate. in
which only Progressist and Socialist
members opposed the measure. Drs.
Virchow and Bamberger were alone
among the members of the committee in
desiring the rejection of the bill, which
was returned to the reichstag in much
the same form as drafted. At the
instance of DR.. WindthorSt the refer
ence in the second clause to the powers
of the imperial cOmmssary over the
East Africa company was eliminated.
WindthOrSt'S motive was to suppress
allusion to the East Africa company,
and to give the measure less CONNER,
cial and more humanitarian aspect
which met the approval OK Prince Bis
marck. Capt. Wissman was again pres
ent to-day. and offered to give whatever
explanations members desired. When
questioned regarding the composition Of
bis forces, he declared that he tenn.
poyment of force would be unavoid
able; that the more energetic their
action was. the briefer it would be-;
and the briefer it was. the more
effectual it would be. and the less liable
to affect the general situation. he said
he could not disclose the plans relating
to the number of troops that would be
employed, nor how he designed to re-
store order on the coast and in the in
terror. Thus nothing was really elici-
ted, the house passing the measure In a
spirit of confidence that the scheme for
the expedition is perfected. 1t is known
that Capt. WiSSman declines to inform
a.
merest details of the equipment OF the
expedition, being
INSTRUCTED TO PRESERVE SILENCE.
Before coming to the reichstag Capt.
Wissmann lunched with the emperor

ceiving final orders as to what statement
he should make. The Post announces
that the officers of the expedition have
been instructed to be ready to start ar
the end of next week. Prince Hohen-

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-"I persist in

man Springer this afternoon after a
long conference in his committee room
with Senator Moody. "There is neither
sense nor politics in the proposed dis
agreement of the senate to all the feat
ures of the omnibus bill. There
is no need of all extra session
of congress upon the subject. | do not
believe the senate watts TO put itself in
that attitude before the country. There
is reason to believe that we can find
common ground to stand upon and set
tie differences between the two houses

ta's prospects are brighter. Evidently

taken root and may bring forth fruit Of

became a violent partisan of Queen
Natalie against the king. He was
placed under surveillance and forbidden
to leave the country. The Radical
triumph turned fortunes wheel for him,
and he is now strong enough to
demand from Milan the Office which
controls the police and gendarmerie.
