4 Warming to Hafhers.

The oft repeated warning to surf
bathers, and particularly to those
who dive, to protect their ears from
the water by cotton plugs, ETC., is
not generally needed, to judge by
the damage often traced to it's neg
lect. They who have lost the mem
brana need to be especially careful
and to give up diving. The tym-
panum is readily protected by the
cotton plug! firmly introduced, but
in diving even then the air in the
nasal fosste, accessory sinuses and
naso- -pharynx g; compressed and
partially escapes by the eustaehian
tubes, and in consequence the water

Because lie Married Casino Fairy
Without Il Divorce.
Butte, Sept. 16.-Jamcs Baptiste,
Il well known Butte telegraph opera
tor. was shot fatally at 0 O'Clock this
evening by a jealous wife. Baptiste
is employed at the NJ. 4 NJ. pool
room. where the California races are
posted. He was at the keyboard this
evening when his wife appeared at
the window o. 4 wine room. She
talked with her husband for about
half an hour, Baptistc occasionally
going up to the board and posting re-
suits Of races. lie had just returned
from the blackboard to his scat
when his wife, who was sti!l at the
window, fired at him. Baptistc
seemed to sec the revolver, for he
took a step or two backward and then
fell to the floor. He was taken to
the hospital and very little hope is
entertained for his recovery.
After firing the shot. Mrs. Eaptiste
fled out Of the wine room into an
alley, thence to broadway, and had
reached the public library building
before She was capturcd.
Mr.. and Mrs. Baptistc were mar
ricd at st. Joe, Mo-, about T. years
ago, and came to Butte about eight
years ago. Last May Mrs Baptiste
went back east on Il visit. She re-
turned two months later to find that
a Casino actress had suppantcd her
in her husbands affections. She
pleaded with him, but he seemed
completely infatuated with the
Casino woman. and would have moth
ing to do with his wife. She APP
piled for divorce and this divorce
suit is now pending
An item appeared in the Helena
papers yesterday to the effect THAT
James Baptistc and Miss Francis H.
McNurncy of Chicago has been mar
ricd at Helena BY Justice StcinnitZ.
Mrs. Baptistc saw this item and Wis
tied the Butte newspaper Offices this
afternoon to find out If it was true.
She was almost hvstcrical at the
time, but could rot believe her hus-
band was married before a divorce
had been granted. 1t IS supposed
that she paid the visit to her hlIs-
band to ascertain the truth Of his
reported marriage and apparently
she got no satisfaction.

HOLD PART IN SILVER.
Bank Of England SO Decides at an I'm.
pOrtHnt Meeting.

portant Meeting.
London, Sept. 16.-At the semi
annual meeting Of the Bank of Eng
land today the governor said: "You
are probably aware Of the proposals
laid before the government in the
summer by the United States and
France: whereby the country might
increase it's use Of silver as a contrib
ution to the international agreement,
which, while not affecting our gold
standard, might enable the mints Of
France and America to resume free
coinage. Among the proposals was
one asking the bank to hold the
amount of silver permissible under
the act Of 1914 as against it's notes.
The governor then read Il letter
dated July 2o addressed to the chan
cclIor of the cXchcquer. Sir Michael
Hicks Beach. 1t was as follows:
''Reterring to our conversation, we
beg to say than the bank is prepared
to carry out what is laid down as per-
missib!c, in the bank charter. viz:
TO hold one-iifth Of its note issue in
silver, provided always the French
mint is again open to the free COIN
age of silver and that the prices at
which silver is procurablc and salable
are satisfactory" "@
Iscplying to questions, the govern
or said the bank had no negotiations
with lhc United States monetary
commissioners, adding "Wc have
bought no silver. All We have done
is to agree. under certain circum-
stances to carry out what is pcrlnis-
siblc under the act Of lS44."
The letter caused surprisingly little
comment III the city and did not
affect silver stocks. Great satiSfac-
tion is, however, expressed at the
headquarters Of the l;imctallic
league. The secretary OF the Bank
Of England, George f. Glennie,
when asked if the action of the Bank
of England depended on the opening
of tho India mints, said: '.Tnat is
a political question and does not con-
Germ us"
The bankers Of tho city arc sur
priscd and dispcascd Manager Ross
of Glynn, Mills, Curry X Co., ardent
supporters Of the GOLD standard de-
| fcnSe association. voiced the opinion
of the bankers. lie said: "The
letter with such qualifications does
not pledge tl!c bank to anything,
AMI its only effect Will be to cncour-
AGE the bimctalli>tS' agitation. II
the plan was carried it might raise
the price Of silver temporarily; which
would be followed by the rcopcning
of the American mines. ovcrproduc-
.ion and another fail in the price of
silver
The officials of the foreign Office
! declined to comment on the letter,
