Monte VS.. Monte.

Editor Camera
You publish quite tale" in regard to
the Italian divorce case of Monte VS..
Monte. Evidently you allowed yourself
to De stuffed" by the smooth Italian or
someone else. AS the public could have
no interest in what you publish, the only
apparent object you had in writing the
matter up the way you did, was to injure
me, and l ask space to briefly state the
facts as they appear in writing and by
the records of the court:
/. My agreement for fees was not for
s25, only conditionally. Under our law,
in all divorce proceedings it Is the duty
of the husband to pay all costs and
counsel fees Monte, it was claimed,
had good deal of property and was
earning good wages, and if the court
could get jurisdiction OF him it would
make an order allowing allmony and
counsel fees to plaintiff and then was
to have what fees the court fixed.
2. l never wrote to Monte for any pur-
pose except to send him a receipt for
$40. The suit was for alimony and coun-
sci fees as we'll as divorce, and when
the sheriff served the summons at Poca-
tello, Monte told him that he would pay
$50 if we would give him receipt in full
| consulted Mrs. Monte and we agreed
to this proposition. Monies attorney
wrote me that he would pay it, and he,
also, wrote that he would. The agree.
m ent then was that was to have $50 tor
my fees.
2. Monte came to Boulder and saw
his wife Sunday. Monday morning she
came to my office and told me, and said:
81 want nothing to do with Monte. You
get my bill and the money from Monte. !"
In her presence wrote notice to Monte
that | would ask the court to fix the
amount he should pay for costs and
counsel fees, but it was not served on
him until Tuesday. Tuesday morning
Mrs. Monte again came to see me as
early as s o'clock, urging me to proceed
against Monte and asking me to fix the
exact day when she could get her di
vorce, and urging me to bring suit
against him tor her father on account of
money loaned. On Wednesday | was
informed that the Monies had kissed
and made up and the suit was to be
dismissed.
a. The motion for allmony and fees
was never pre- scented to the court and
the court was not asked to pass upon it.
On Wednesday l went before Judge
Secor and had the case dismissed at the
costs of the plaintiff, telling the court the
parties had agreed to live together and
there was nothing more for me to do.
:. As to other suit not "clear" to you:
Mrs. G. Kappa came to my Office with
Mrs. Monte, her daughter, and brought
an itemized account for s2S2 that her
husband had loaned Monte in 1887, part
of it to pay the funeral expenses of his
baby, with letter from Monte, written
a few years ago, acknowledging the debt
and promising to pay It and engaged me
to bring suit for its collection, and to
bring the action here if Monte came to
Boulder, otherwise to send it to Pocatello.
This is the tale" you wrote up, and
the plain facts of the case.

GOoDwIN,s JOKE WITH sULLI.
VAN.
From the Chicago Record.

From the Chicago Record.
When Sullivan was in his prime and was
supposed to be the invincible champion
of the universe. he came to Chicago to
play ar engagement. Nat Goodwin was
playing here at the same time. Goodwin,
like every other man with drop Of sport
ing blood in his veins, admired Sullivan.
He knew him very well, as the great actor
and the great pugilist both came from
Boston.
sullivan was standing near a fancy bar
at one of the hotels when Goodwin en-
tered. The usual circle Of admirers were
at safe distance from the mighty, war
rior, admiring him in awe-stricken silence.
He strolled over to the bar and asked in a
loud voice: "Who is that big dufter2"
"Sh-h-h! That's John L. Sullivan" said
the bartender.
"Well, what do l care?" demanded the
actor, and with thar be walked over and
brushed against the fighter.
Sullivan glared down at Goodwin and
roared Say, who are you pushin'?"
"Oh, keep STILL you big bluff" replied
Goodwin,
Two or three of the, SPECTATORS tainted,
and others pushed forward to save the
actors life. Before they could interfere
Goodwin was driving right and left at the
big fellow" who was backing away, ap-
parently frightened out of his wits. Most
of the people who had been looking on
ran for their lives, and never came back
to find out that it was all joke.
1t is said that Goodwin made 1t prac-
tice to assault Sullivan whenever he saw
ly.1n, and the big fighter thought it was
the funniest thing the comedian ever did.

MIscHIEvOUS PINE BROOK BOYS.
They started to Play Franks on
"The HiIl' Last Night.

A gang of thirty Pine Brook urchins
visited the hill'' last night and two
of the number were nabbed by Pa
trolman Tom Jones, who was watch
ing, in citizens attire, about the neigh
borhood of Chief Robling's house on
Gibson street for clothes line thieves.
The two captured are James Dough-
erty and Ambrose Finnegan, both un-
der 13 years Of age. They spent last
night in the police station.
The gang, in ages, ranged about the
15-year mark; last night they started
for the hill in a body. Upon reaching
Jefferson avnue they went north and
began business. A tree was uprooted,
gates slammed and stones were thrown
at several houses. At the corner Of
Gibson street and jefferson avenue the
boys hurled stones at the glass front of
the door of the house on the south
westerly corner. The glass was
smashed in.
Then lifting the iron gate from its
hinges they carried ii to a lamp post
on the corner, and after a severe ef-
fort succeeded in ringing" the post
with the gate.
About this time residents were in a
state Of great excitement Patrolman
Tom Jones came on the scene and as
the boys were having their fun with
the gate the police officer strolled up
and grabbed Finnegan and Dougherty.
The rest escaped by scampering for
dear life in all directions. No less than
three glass doors were smashed in the
GOO block on Gibson street The boys
arrested will be given a hearing this
morning.

clared the man at the detectives side.
"Now, tell me how you know that the
fellow rides a stolen wheel"
The great thisf-catcher drew long
puff from his cigarette, permitted the
smoke to circulate freely through his
lungs for about minute and half,
and then replied:
look at his nose"
Ills nosel" exclaimed the other,
Surely you can't tell whether O man
Is a thief or not by simply looking at
his nosel"
Not in all cases." Holmes responded,
"but in such ones as this 1t is the sim
plest thing in the world. You see the
end of his nose has been exposed to
the sun. 1t has just begun to peel off.
Well, what does that signify? Merely
this, my dear sir; the fellow has not
dared to buy a cap, for fear of arous-
ing suspicion, so he has been getting
along with a common hat, with the re-
suit that ] have pointed out.
The wonderful man then walked up
to the thief, clarped a pair of hand
cuffs upon him, and when the evidence,
as set forth here, was in court, there
was nothing left for the culprit but to
confess and receive his sentence of i'm
prisonment at hard labor for life.

Wool in the Senate.

The wool schedule has now been
reached i'm the senate and thccountry
will soon know the rates fixed by
that body. Last Saturdays Great
Falls Tribune contained n telegram
stating that advocates in the senate
of an increase i'm the duty on wool
held n meeting and decided upon the
following as the rates which they
will ask the committee to fix on
wool:
First class-In grease, unskirted,
10 cents per pound; in grease, skirted,
L. cents per pound; if washed, double
these rates; ii secured, treble.
Second class-In grease, unskirted,
IL cents per pound; in grease, skirted,
IL cents perpound: if washed, double;
if secured, treble.
Third class-Worth not exceeding
6 cents per pound, 3 cents duty:
worth over 6 cents and not exceeding
10 cents, , cents; worth over l0ccnts,
) cents duty; if secured. treble.
These rates are much higher than
those originally fixed by the senate
committees, and wool men regard
them as more advantageous than
those of the house bill or of the
Mckinley law.
There We're present mt the meeting
II or Il senator's, representing all
states in which wool is the industry
OF special Importance.
The dispatch further says that the
schedule agreed upon was presented
at n meeting of the Republican MEM
bers OF the senat finance committee
today. For over three hours the
questions presented were discussed
definite conclusions We're reached.
Among the senators who asked for
an increase in the wool duties as
proposed by the senate were Mantle.

large manufacturers of wooden goods,
also attended the meeting. 1t is

mended is still open.
