The Rash Acs of D. A. Campbell
of Steele.
WORRYING OVER TRIPLES
He Had Been Despondent since en- At
tack OF Grip Last Spring-He Had
Lived in Northern Montana
for ID Years.

Great Falls, Dec. 20.--D. A. Campbell,
the well-known sheepman of Steele. On
the Lewistown stage road from Fen
ton, committed suicide Sunday morn
ing by shooting. Campbell has not
been feeling well since a severe attack
OF the grip last spring, and had taken
to worrying lately over trifies. and 1t
Is supposed was suffering in a fit Of
unwarranted dependency when he
took his life. The deed was committed
in the parlor of his home shortly after
he had arisen Sunday morning, he hay
Ing taken thirty thirty" Winches-
ter, which was standing in the corner
Of the room, and, placing the muzzle
below his right nipple, pushed the trig-
ger with poker. Death was instan-
famous, the bullet which was full
jacketed, passing through the body,
coming out below the left shoulder,
ties coming into the room at once
found him dead, with the gun and
poker lying beside him. He was
brought to Benton as soon as possible,
where an inquest was held and a YER
dict of suicide rendered. The body was
embalmed and was shipped to-day to
Portland, Maine, accompanied by his
wife and 3-year-old daughter both OF
whom were in the adjoining room when
the shooting was done, and who made
| the cold, dreary trip OF 40 miles over
| land, preceding the remains OF the dead
| husband and father.
Campbell was well known throughout
| this section of Montana, where he had
| lived for the past IS years, and Camp
| BELLS" will be remembered by every
one who ever took the trip from Benton
| to LewistoWn as most excellent sta
| ton for the comfort of passengers. For
many years past Campbell has been
engaged in stock raising and mad
amassed a snug fortune.
Seven years ago he bought out David
Moore, his partner in the sheep bust
ness and since then has been alone.
Last spring he sold all his sheep, and
this fall sold his ranch and cattle for
a sum aggregating 1872, 900, and intend
ed going back to Maine in the srrins
to make home. Absolutely no cause
other than temporary insanity can be
| assigned for the deed. Deceased was
49 years of age, and was married in
Portland, Maine, six years ago. He
| leaves, as stated, a wife end daughter
8 years of age, who will make their
future home in Maine.

SHE WAS A NEGROES WIFE
a White Woman Makes the
Confession in Court.
"A PETIT LARCENY CHARGE
The Couple Were Charged With Carry
ing OF the Bedding From Room
Which They Had Rented,
They Pleaded Not Guilty.

Y Frequenters Of Justice Nichols court
room were treated yesterday to the ex-
hibition of seeing white woman stand
up and confess herself the wife of
colored man. The couple were Mr.. and
Mrs. E. j. Brown, who were before the
court to answer to a charge of petit
larceny.
The court room was filled with spec
tators who had come to listen to the
proceedings in a civil suit that was be-
ing tried when the couple were brought
in by an officer. The court read the
complaint against them and asked If
they were the defendants named as
Mr.. and Mrs. Brown. When they re-
piled in the affirmative a curious ex-
preston, which was quite noticeable,
appeared on the countenances of their
listeners, but the woman, who was
quite a tidy, Incorporating woman
did not appear to be affected by the
expressions which she could not help
but observe, but instead soomed to take
quite a pride in her position and 70
look upon her lord and master as quite
q superior being.
The charge on which the couple were
arrested, was that of carrying off the
bedding of the room in which they had
been living in lodging house con-

she procured the complaint against the

their rent and she had tried to get them
out of the house. They finally left be-
fore the rest of the house was astir
and took with them the bedding and
other articles among the furnishings
of the room.
The couple entered a plea Of not
guilty to the charge AGAINST them and
had their hearing set for next Thurs
day In default of bail they were taken
to the county jail.
A complaint charging the offense OF
falsely personating another, was filed
in Justice Nichols court es+erday

the store and bought pair of shoes
and had them charged to Thomas
