side. "Aweel, Janet" said the worthy
man, yen soon be in heaven the noo."

soon be layin' in Lazarus bosom.'
"Abraham's bosom, Janet" remonst-a rated
the minister. "Hoots mon!' said Janet,
ruffled. "Gin ye had been a lone single
wumman for over 10 years ye'd no. be
that parteecular aboot the bosom.'

SWITCHES BEING BUILT.

Reports from Yankee Flats are to the
work on the B., A. & P. switches on
and around the Brown ranch, which was
purchased a few months ago by the
Washoe Copper company. One of the
first improvements on the Brown ranch
was the construction of large boarding
house, to care for the men at the silica
camp, near by. It will be remembered
that the silica camp east of Anaconda
was a short time ago abandoned and
new silica quarry opened up near Browns
ranch. A switch is now being built from
the B.. A. & P. extension at point on
the ranch to the quarry. Another switch
is being built to the lime quarry in
the same vicinity. Other switches are
under construction on the fiat of the
ranch. until it looks as though Yankee
Flats was on the boom, So much work
up there means something, and it is be-
lieved to be good news, but the exact
nature cannot be found out, 1t may be
nothing more or less than preparations
to handle large amounts Of silica and
lime. and the further plan Of making
Yankee Flats the terminal end Of the eX-
tension Of the B., A. & P. for the pres
ent. from whence supplies will be deliv-
cred for operations at Silver lake, which
is to be tapped for a water supply for
extensive smelling operations at the old
smelters at Anaconda. Yesterday a
grading outfit passed through Anaconda
and was last seen crossing the creek
toward the upper works, where the sur
veyors have been at work for week or
more, making ready for improvements
Of some kind over there.

LAUNDRY STRIKE

With the snow failing this morning as
though it was being shoveled from the
heavens with a scoop the employees of the
Montana Steam Laundry went on
strike. The trouble arose over Miss
Florence Smith, one Of the laundry girls,
who was not member of the union Miss
Smith used to be the laundry bookkeeper
Lately she has been employed in the
laundry. She did not join the union. She
was asked to but did not, giving as her
reason that she was going away soon.
This was evident inasmuch as her resig-
nation had already been presented. She
was going away within short time.
John Scovil, manager of the laundry. was
looking for another competent girl to
take her place at the end of the time set
forth in Miss Smiths resignation. The
union demanded that Miss Smith become
a member Of the union or be discharged.
This was refused. This morning at
o'clock the other employees except the
bookkeeper walked out and remained
away until after s o'clock. About that
hour Miss Smith put on her hat and cloak
and walked home. Mr.. Scovil announced
that she had quit work and would not
come back again. The strikers then re-
turned to work. At noon everything was

UNHAPPY BONDS,

It is understood that there will be two
more suits for divorce filed in Deer
Lodge county within a few days. One is
Mrs. Sanford Currier. vino will ask for
divorce from her husband on the
grounds Of adultery with one Mrs.
Walker. The other is Mrs. Walker, who
is attached to Mr.. Sanford Currer and
who wants a separation from her hus-
band on the ground Of desertion. 1t will
be remembered that Sanford Currier and
Mrs Walker were both arrested short
time ago on the charge of adultery, pre-
ferred by Mrs. Currier. The case against
them was dropped as suddenly as n

there will be no satisfaction other than

on earth is the husband who whips his
wife. as the evidence here shows you have
done. Fellows of your class need not
come before this court seking mercy, for
you will not get it. 1t is difficult to decide
In your case what sentence to impose,
You are the father of several small chill

maximum penalty allowed by law-six
months In the county Jail and $500 fine.
But II put you in prison your children
