court today. The first amended COM
plant stated that the defendant had been
guilty of adultery with Lyman A.. Sisley
in various times and places, but the
plaintiff. Mr.. Bordeaux, desiring to let
the defendant. Mrs. Bordeaux, down as
easy as possible, omitted a few details.
In the first complaint he said nothing
about her further than the fact that she
had deserted him, but when she made
answer and asked the court to compel
him to give her attorneys So, 900 for a few
of his possessions to her he filed a new
complaint. In that document he made
the following accusations against her:
Desertion on January 3, 1898.
Adultery with an unknown man in the
old Owsley block on or about September
/, 1891. Various other times and places
with the same man.
Adultery with Lyman A. Sisley on
September 16, 1897, in an unfinished
house bearing No. 1926 Broadway, west of
Misoula gulch; a similar offense with
Sisley at various other times during
September and October, 1897; and also in
room Is of the Red Boot lodging house
in August of the same year.
At least half a dozen other places are
mentioned in connection with Sisley. Mr..
B~ordeauX's own residence being among
them.
The second amended complaint con-
tains a new clause. 1t says that on or
about November 80, 1897, in room No. 27

corner of Galena and Idaho streets, Ella
F. Bordeaux again committed adultery

WASHINGTON, ID. c., December 10.
1t is expected the next step in the
McGraw-Scott protest proceedings will
be the adoption by the subcommittee of
the Senate. Committee on Privileges and
Elections of plan of procedure. This
may occur on Monday, and in that
event the contest will have been fully
inaugurated. Upon the report of the
subcommittee will depend the course
to be taken by counsel on either side,
and the amount and nature of the testi-
mony that will be required. So far as
known the defense of Scott viii be that
the action OF the Legislature settled all
questions as to the validity of any leg
islatiVe seats, and that, in word, the
Senate cannot inquire into any phase
OF the election of Scott outside the
prima facie evidence of the acts of the
Legislature. 1t seems unlikely that the
Senate committee will be favorably inn
pressed with this defense, which virtu-
ally denies the right of the Senate to
inquire into the validity of any sena-
torial election that is valid on the face
of the returns" Ex-senator Faulkner
Is actively engaged upon the Scott case
and will present it before the commit
tee.
The resolution offered by Senator
Chandler, heretofore referred to by the
Register, is as follows:
Resolved, That the Committee on
Privileges and Elections of the Senate,
or any subcommittee thereof be au-
thorized and directed to investigate the
right and title OF Nathan B. Scott to a
seat as Senator from the State of West
Virginia; and said committee is ar-
thorized to sit during the sessions OF
the Senate, to employ stenographer,
to send for persons and papers, and to
administer oaths; and that the expenses
of the inquiry shall be paid from the
contingent fund OF the Senate, upon
vouchers to be approved by the chair
man of the committee"
This resolution was referred TO the
Committee on Contingent Expenses of
the Senate, and has not yet been report
ed back. It's adoption has but one bear
ing on the Scott case, and that is to pro-
vide that the Senate shall bear the ex-
penses of the contest, which would 9TH
erwise fall upon the parties to 1t. The
Senate Committee ON Privileges and
Elections has full authority without the
adoption of this resolution to conduct
an inquiry into the McGraw charges.
Its introduction by Senator Chandler,
however, shows that the Senate COM
mittee proposes to make a thorough
investigation into the validity of SCOTS
election, and that Mr.. Scott will be CALI
ed upon to make his title clear, If he

THE WORST NOT YET KNOWN.

LONDON, December II, LAS a. NIT
Is hardly too much to regard Gen. CAT
acres repulse near Stormberg as the
most serious defeat British arms have
yet sustained in the whole campaign.
Already the official advices show that
two men were killed, nine officers and
seventeen men wre woundd and nine
officers and FIVE hundred and ninety-six
men are missing. But it is evident that
the worst is not yet known. The pro-
portion of wounded and killed is so
small, when compared with the missing
who are undoubtedly prisoners in the
hands of the Boers-that the supple
mentary list of casualties is awaited
with serious misgivings.
1t is also feared that there were seri-
Gus losses of guns and equipment.
The most serious aspect of the af-
fair is the effect it Is likely to have on
the Dutch in Cape Colony, who have
been wagering as to whether to throw
in their lot with the Beers. Hosts OF
the northern farmers are now likely to
join the rebellion. The defeat is also
serious because it will delay the juno
ton of Gen. Gatacre with Gen. French
at Naauwpoort. The plan was for
their combined forces TO relieve the
pressure on Lord Methuen's column.
The disclosure Of such a strong force
at Stormberg was quite unexpected.
Doubtless Gen. Gatacre was the vic
tim of treacherous guides, but the re-
suit points also to the absence of prop
er cavalry scouting.
The British troops who recently oc-
cupied Arundel are advancing. They
have had several skirmishes but no
casualties. Three miles north of Arun-
del they found the Beers 1000 strong.

lighting at Modder river originated

ST. PAUL, Mimi, December To-
Peoples Church in this city, whose re-
cent statements in regard to the women
wage-earners and their interference
with men workers. have attracted wide
attention and criticism, tonight replied
to his critics in a sermon. DR.. Smith
said in part:
'sThe subject at first arouses mirth,
but when it is better understood tears
will take the place of laughter The
problem is red with the life blood CT
the nation. There is need for woman's
work and good in it, but as society is
at present organized, the evil far out
weighs the good. 1t was in savage
times that woman was the slave and
served her master in mental tasks.
We are fast on the road to new saw
agery. The problem began when the
discovery of machinery and the fac
tory system took the place of the man
and the tool. Greedy employers babe
the delicate fingers of women and the
dimpled hand of childhood grasp the
fallen task. I have watched a woman
and cow yoked together dragging a
heavy load in Europe. I have seen the
haggard faces of the factory girls here
and there. God never intended women
to look like that. But economic con-
ditions have no chivalry and human
avarice has no sense Of honor. The
majority of working women in this
country, now four millions of them, are
between the ages of IA and 25. The
great fact of the last decade, however,
is the enormous increase Of girls I'M
der IS years of age. In the clothing
trades alone, the increase has been two
hundred and thirty-eight per cent; in
cotton and wooden goods, one hundred
and thirty-eight per cent The ten
dency is toward childhood. 1t is
cheaper. Meantime, we are devouring
the possible strength of the nation by
draining the life of its future mothers.
Forty-five per cent. of the manufact-
uring in the United States is now done
by women. We may well be ashamed
to use the appliances of modern civili-
cation when we remember that they
mean the life blood and agony of deli
cate womanhood, the paralysis of our
home and the stopping Of that abound
ing American physical vigor which has
marked us for century, because Amer
lea has hitherto been the paradise of
women. Make our women beasts of
burden, and the doom Of our strength
is at hand No army is any more Wig
orous than the mothers who bore them.
The tendency toward the enormous in
crease of woman labor and of imma-
ture young women, Is the economic.
social, moral and physical evil of our
time, and it is the most serious menace
to the nations life
