reviewing the whole course Of inter

to pass that line. Secretary Blaine

CAREER IN
What Is Known in This Place o.
Davis.

What Is Known in This Place OF
Davis.
James T.. Davis, the target in the Butte
shooting affair, is well-known in Helena.
He was at one time in business on South
Main street, with R. G. Wallace. was mar
ried to a very nice lady and has a son still
living here, the offspring of this marriage.
Davis was divorced from his first wife
about ten years ago. and she went to Cali
fornia, where she married again and ia do
ing we'll. Some years after the divorce Davis
suddenly left Helena and was gone for some
time. Whom ho returned he again went
into the grocery business with Charles
J~etffies. About eight months after his re-
turn a lady-the wife who did the shooting
at Butte-cams to Helena from Texas,
where she had met Davis, and they were
married soon after. Two children were the
result Of this marriage, one born in Helena,
and the other in Butte, to which place the
family moved two or three years ago. Some
time before the birth of the second child
Davis is said to have left Butte suddenly
with q woman he had met aud with
whom be had become infatuated. This oc-
CURED last summer. Recently Davis and.
SO the story goes, the woman, went back to
Butte. and their presence there, and the al
Legged fact that they were living together
no doubt caused the abandoned wife to
make the attempt on his life. Davis's
friends in Helena say he was a pleasant
fellow and a first class groceryman, afabIs
and accommodating and very popular with
customers, They say his only fault was
too much attention to too many women,
lie is a man of about so years now. No one
knows who the second wife was before her
as she came here a stranger, but
all speak of her as a very nice woman.

Troubles.

Burrr. Dec. o6.-[spscial. AT a few
minutes before four O'Clock THIS aiternoon'
4 woman Of medium size. twenty-eleht
years old, with pleasant face OF creamy tihf'
blue eyes and dark hair, walked INTO the
orncery store of II. II. Guthrie d 90. at the
northeast corner of Main n Granite
streets. She went to the rear of the store
where the Office of the bookkeeper is To-
Gated. ). Il. Davis. an employe OF the gro
carv frm. was engaged at the books. he
didn't sec the lady who was approaching.
She walked up to the door OF the office,
carefully opened her hand satchcl and took
from it a 32-calibre revolver. She aimed
carefully at MIR. Davis. but her aim was bad,
md the shot went away over his head and
through a window in tho rear Of the office.
She fred again, but the second shot also
went through the window. Mr.. Davis had
Jumped up by the time the second
shot was fired and found the woman still
had the gun leveled at his head. You
dirty scoundrel,' % she said, "You took $4,000
Of nv money, married me and then deserted
me-" Mr.. Davis took a flying leap from
the Office. He was pursued by the frantic
woman, who fred two more shots. She
was evidently better at q flying shot. as she
hit him both times, but he managed to
reach the cellar door, and it only took two
steps for him to reach the bottom of the
cellar stairway. There was q general
cleaning out Of the store. Some n sent
Officer Mike Donovan in, and the woman
submitted to arrest and was taken to the
county Jail. Davis was brought up from
the cellar and taken to his room on East
Broadway. Dr.. j. G. Johnston attended
him. He found bullet in the upper part
of Davis right leg, and he had been grazed
by another bullet on the leg. The wounds
are not considered at all serious.
The woman was seen in Jail a short time
after the affair occurred, and gave her story
as to the motive she had in taking a shot
at Davis. She said she had married him
about three years ago in Helena, and that
shortly after the marriage her sister ad-
vanced Davis $4,000 to 20 into business
with. With this sun he purchased an in
terest in Guthrie's store in this city. He
had never, she claimed, paid q cent either
of the principle or interest in return.
Davis, according to the story of Mrs. Da-
Wis, became infatuated with another wo-
man last winter. Last March he deserted
her, while she was expecting soon to be
confined. He wrote a letter to her stating
that he could make no money in Butte, and
expressing regret at leaving her. Her child
was born last June, and as soon as she was
able to travel she went to her parents III
New York. Lately she heard that her hus-
band was living in Butte again with a
woman named st. John. She got on the
cars, arrived in town last night, and
started on the war path this afternoon.
