Mrs. Chas. Williams writes back from

MI. Williams will make Butte his perma-
nent home. Mrs. Williams will be missed
by her Bismarck friends and no less will
be the loss Of Miss Anna, who has grown

The mysterious seduction case that hung
like a pail over justice court and threat.
ened to disturb the tranquility and moral
