POSTAL LAWS VIOLATED
Crime Committed With an APP
parent Absence of Motive.
A WOMAN is ARRESTED
She Is Charged With Sending Obscene
Matter Through the Malls and
Does Not Deny the Grave
Accusation.

One Of the most incomprehensible
cases that ever came to the attention
of the federal authorities in this part
of the country came into the courts
yesterday, when Lizzie Anderson, a
Danish girl who has been working in
the kitchen of the Montana hotel, was
arrested on the charge of sending op-
scene matter through the mails.
The arrest was made early yester-
day afternoon by Deputy United States
Marshal Meiklejohn of Butte on the
complaint of Perley R. Lance, a post
office inspector, who had been sent here
to investigate the case.
According to the evidence gathered
by the inspector, Miss Anderson on
Sept 20 mailed in the Anaconda post
Office, addressed to herself, a letter.
This letter was delivered to her. She
she admitted yesterday, opened 1t by
steaming the envelope. Then she
sealed it up again and drew pen
through the name on the envelope,
leaving only the address Anaconda,
Montana" thereon. She at this time
wrote under the line Return to" In
the upper left hand corner of the en-.
velope, the words Sauna Murto, Box
&c. and put the letter back in the post
office.
In the course of time the letter was
delivered by the postoff1ce to Sauna
Murto, who. like the prisoner, is Dan
ish Miss Murto, on opening it, found
letter written in Danish, signed by
Miss Anderson and containing a num-
Der of obscene expressions. Several
obscene pictures were drawn on the
sheet containing the letter.
Miss Murto reported the matter 10
Postmaster Devine who called upon
sent the letter He reported the case
to the postoffice department, which
sent Inspector Lance here to investi-
gate, with the result that she was ar
rested.
Yesterday afternoon. she was ar
raigned before Charles Houck, United
States commissioner. The woman, who
appears to be about q years of age
seemed to be very ignorant and to lack
an appreciation of the gravity of her
offense. which is punishable by a
heavy fine and imprisonment. She lid
not seek to deny having sent the letter,
and apparently did not understand The
proceedings. Nevertheless it was
thought best to enter a plea of not
guilty.
She was remanded to the county jail
by the commissioner to have a hearing
on the charge next Saturday at 2 p. m.
She Is now in the county Jail in de-
fault of bail.
There appears to be an absence Of
motive in her actions. while her man
ner Of sending the letter seems ex-
plaiRable only on the theory that she
is insane She gives nosother evidenae
of insanitythowever. Tt has been sug-
gested that she was prompted to send
the letter by some enemy of Miss Muir

Manager McNulty of the electric
light and railway company said each
arc light had a power of SO volts ana
on the entire circuit there was 5000
volts. How much Sullivan received
he could not say. He testified that
electricians were kept in the works
to look after the lights.
John Robinson and John Creedon,
who had been working with Sullivan,
described the accident as Storrer had
done. Creedon said he himself had re-
ceived shock through the iron floor
when Sullivan was struck. He did not
know whether or not Sullivan had
been instructed not to touch the lights.
but he knew he himself had received
such instructions.
The witness Dalton was recalled and
testified that only verbal instructions
had been given the men not to touch
the lights.

1.-THE INDIAN A ROMANCE"
Robert Downing and Company Made


THE Indiana Romance" was a new
play to the comfortable audience at the
New Academy Of Music last night. but
II turned out 10 be most interesting and
splendidly acted pastoral play, OF the
style that pleases an audience that loves
10 step aside occasionally from the frivoll-
ties Of farce and other lighter amuse-
ments.
Mr.. Robert Downing was seen back in
his old line Of work, and while he may
be quite a little heavy for the part OF a
quiet, unobtrusive country citizen, he was
surprisingly clever in the part Of Sam
Hickey. the village carpenter. and Infused
just enough humor in the part TO make
81 attractive
Present iheatre-g0ers are accustomed
10 Mr.. Downing as a gladiator or some
other severe romantic character, but II
was a real treat 10 see him in the quiet
natural part that he takes In "The Indi-
ana Romance"
There are no startling situations IN the
play but there are a number of neat lit
tie pathetic scenes. not too long drawn
out, nor still too insipd.
As Mary Miss Lucia Moore was very
good. She displayed a thorough know
ledge OF the character that she portrayed,
and her lines were handled as by the true
artist Withal she was beautiful wo-
man. and seemed, indeed, with her re-

Monday some one. whose identity

had been killed in n wreck on the Big

led to his conclusion from the dcscrin-
