DREYFUs' FORTITUDE.

Rsn1es, Sep. 10.-Dreyfus has
Borne the terrible shock with marve-
l1us fortitude one might almost say
with unnatural calm. Yesterday he
seemed stupefied when M. Labori com
munica.tsd to him the verdict, but has
since rallied and he passed a quiet
night and rose when his orderly
brought him water at five o'clock.
Madame Dreyfus and Matthew Dreyfus,
his brother, visited him during the
course of the afternoon. His brother
subsequently left for Paris. An appli-
cation to the court of revision was
taken to him at noon by NJ. Labori's
assistant and he signed it. Today he
has spoken but little, though he has
seemed in better spirits than might
have been anticipated. The meeting
with his wife was naturally very af-
fecting, but both held up as we'll as
possible He said to her: Il am
not uneasy regarding my sentence, as
I shall soon be free, but I think OF you
and my Poor children, they will be
branded as the children Of traitor"
He is convinced that the ten years i'm
prisonment to which he is sentenced
will be wiped out by the five years OF
solitary seclusion he has. undergone
and expects to be released by Octo-
Der Is.
M Demange thinks the five years
will count for nothing and that Drey-
fus, according to law, will have to SUI
fer the ten years detention. Many
cthers, however, including several
lawyers, hold contrary opinions. . An
interesting fact developed today. is
that the police had taken every pre-
caution to get Dreyfus safely out of
Rennes in the event Of an acquittaI. in
which case it was unanimously agreed
there would have been serious disord-
er, and probably an attempt upon mis-
life. The police had arranged to
conduct him back to the military
prison. He would then have been dis
guised and rushed to the station be-
fore the crowd heard of his leaving

MRS. REID is VERY ANGRY
Her Husband Revoked the Power
of Attorney.
STORY OF THE TROUBLE
The Wife Tired OF Married Life and
Entered a Suit for Divorce
Which Was Thrown
Out o. Court.

Mrs. Emma Reid who has had all
kinds of trouble with her husband,
James Reid, made the unpleasant and
aggravating discovery yesterday that
her husband has anticipated her inten-
ton to dispose of their property under
the authority of a power of attorney
he had given her, and when she at
tempted to put on record a deed to
the property the county clerk and re-
corder informed her that her husband
had anticipated her and had filed re-
vocation of the power of attorney. Mrs.
Reid was very angry not only because
of the meanness OF her husband, but
also because she had bought, paid for
and Cancelled on the deed a revenue
stamp, which was a total loss to her.
When Reid went 10 the Klondike in
the summer of 1897 he left his wife with
three children, and to provide for their
support he decided a house and lot in
Butte to her and gave her $500 in cash
and a power of attorney by which she
was empowered to dispose of all his
interests in the Butte property. Some
time last year he came back from
Alaska and, according to his story,
found that his Wite's feelings toward
him and her opinion of married life
had undergone serious change. and
she did not encourage him to take up
his home with her again. She told him
she was tired of washing and taking
care of sick children, The atmosphere
around Mrs. Reid got SO frigid that
Reid went elsewhere to get warm and
his wife sent two of the children after
him and then brought suit for divorce
and applied to the court for an alimony
allowance. At a hearing Of the appli-
cation Mrs. Reid failed to prove de-
sertion, and as Reid told the court he
was entirely willing to live with his
wife and support her the judge threw
the case out of court and told the couple
to go home. Reid smiled, but his wife
| was furious, and. according to the &C
count of neighbors. she absolutely re-
fused to follow the advice of the court
and would have nothing to do with her
| husband.
A few days ago Reid again left for
| Alaska and Mrs. Reid saw her oppor-
| tunity She sold the house and lot to
| Mary Graham for $500 and herself took
| the deed to the clerks office to be re-
corded. Simply as kindly and neigh
| borly act one of the deputies informed
| her that before leaving for the Illon-
| dixie her husband had revoked her
| power of attorney, which had been in
! force for nearly two years and which
she had failed to take advantage of
Mrs. Reid, angry and disguised, took
| the deed away with her

COULDN'T PROVE 1T.
Hearing of John Adair-Why Goldsmith
Wanted to Pull Out.


The state failed to prove a case yes
terday in the proceedings begun the
day before, seeking to have John Ada,r
put under bonds to keep the peace, but
from the hearing some interesting facts
developed as Andrew Goldsmith, who
made the complaint alleging that Adair
and two others had threatened to Gym
amite him and his partner, Erickson, If
they did not quit on a job on which
they were employed and subsequently
asked to withdraw. the complainant
told why he had made the request. He
said it was because one of the boss
plumbers. who is not in the Master
Plumbers association, had threatened
to have him run out of town if he did
not. When Judge Nichols refused to
dismiss the case unless the costs were
paid, Goldsmith declined to pay them
and decided to go ahead.
Goldsmith told the same story on the
stand that he told to County Attorney
Connolly the day before and his state
ments were backed up by his partner
Erickson. The only thing new brought
out came in Goldsmiths reply to Coun-
ty Attorney Connolly's inquiry as to
why he had sought to have the COM
plant withdrawn. He said he had
done so because William Maus had
threatened to have him run out of town
if he did not

couple their good wishes and congratu-

by Father DeSiere at ST. Patrick S
church and was followed by splendid
supper, served at the residence, No. 416

fore Judge FerreIl.
George Bell. man who once made a
fortune backing boots in Seattle, was
before Judge Terrell yesterday in the
police court to answer to a charge of
vagrancy, Bell had a stand in one of
the most frequented streets of the sound
metropolis in the early boom days,
and, as he had an unusually taking way
with him and could put a shine on a
pair of shoes that no other fellow could
equal, he could not begin to accommO-
date all who wanted to patrOnize him.
For the same reason it was a rare thing
70 a man to get down out of his chair
without handing him more than his
charge. He was Industrious and saving
and, unlike the men who put their all
into real estate, when the bubble burst
he had a competency. 1t was to him
snug fortune, but there came a
change in his fortunes. Dull times fol-
lowing the collapse of the boom gave
him time that he was not employed and
he fell among bad associates. In an
evil moment he took a drink; then got
drunk. He repeated it and one night

DEWEY DAY.
No Arrangements Made for Celebration
in Butte.

in Butte.
1t Is not known how general will be
the observance of Dewey day in the
country at large, but so far as Butte is
concerned no arrangements have been
made for a public celebration of any
kind. A movement was started some
time ago to raise a fund to be used to-
ward the erection of an appropriate
monument in .commemoration of the
victims of the late war. Towards this
movement Admiral Dewey contributed
a cannon which had been captured from
the Spanish at Manila. The committee
in charge of the movement decided to
give this cannon to that city of the
United States which, in proportion to
it's population, should raise on May l
the largest amount towards this cause.
Inasmuch as Butte has increased enor
mously since the last census and was
not properly credited in that census, it
would not be difficult matter for Butte
to carry off that cannon if it set about
it. Nothing, however, has been done
in the matter, so the cannon will go
to some other city. Nevertheless a fes-
tival is to be held on Monday in honor
of the day. and for the benefit of the
Butte soldiers at Manila. The celebra-
ton will be in the form of a concert
and ball and will be given under the
auspices of Louise lodge No. of d. H.
S. 1t will be given at the Auditorium.
The programme will be as follows: Ad-

TOUGH BOYS.

Stealing Junk.

Justice Smith Read Them a Lecture for
Stealing Junk.
A uuintette of tough boys answering
to the names of Dan Sullivan, Thomas
Coleman, Walter Mcleod. George
Wickman and Sam Bonner, ranging in
age from 10 to IS years, had hearing
before Justice Smith at South Butte
yesterday for stealing lot of junk
from Goldwater's junk yard, in the
southern part of town. The case was
conclusively proved, but Judge Smith
did not feel disposed to send the boys
to jail Instead he read them lecture
and let them go. He told them he had
no doubt of their guilt, and that If it
were within his power to send them to
the reform school direct, he would so
sentence them. but he did not believe in
sending boys to Jail among more nard-
ened criminals; he would let them go.
AS the spectacle of court finding de-
PENDANTS in a criminal action guilty
and then turning them loose was some
what unusual. the boys who were old
enough to appreciate their good luck,
went away congratulating one another,
and declaring that the next time they
got caught stealing they would try and
see that they had their hearing before
Judge Smith.
