Rather Bury Her Than
Get a Doctor.

In her complaint She says they were
married in Butte on February %, 1885,
and that ever since her marriage, lit
tie more than a year ago she has been
subjected to treatment of extreme cru
city. On the first of last February the
defendant falsely accused her Of I'M
chastity, and has frequently done so
since that date. On the first Of Sep
TENDER of last year when she was sick
and unable to attend to her household
duties, or to perform any labor, the de-
PENDANT compelled her to do house
work and refused to allow doctor to
treat her God ----- you" he said
Il would rather bury you than get a
doctor for you" She says he often
cursed her and compelled her to work
when she was sick. His treatment Of
her since their marriage has been so
cruel and abusive tina, she has become
sick and she believes that she is in
great danger of bodily harm at his
hands if longer compelled to live with
him. Mrs. Strattan says she has no
property of her own. except that she
has paid about 5000 on a house in
South Butte. The defendant is the

were married in Butte on October s,
1895. and that she has always conduct
ed herself properly as a wife and never

the house where they were then living
On November 20 he again struck her

lips with his fist, and also called her
vile and obscene names and threatened

Mrs Lizzie Ray resident of Belle

This startling announcement brought
many citizens to the spot. There they

Under date of Oct. %, Louis Jun
ger, who is with Co. D. Third
United States Infantry, in the Phil
pines, writes to The GAZETTE as fol-
lows:
''San Miguel was captured by the
25th Infantry and three troops of
the Third Cavalry and a couple of
pieces Of artillery, today. San Mig

the United States troops, because
there are several bands of insurg-

they have to go along the mountains.

with our troops at San Miguel. we
will be in close range of them.
On Oct 22d our company was call
ed out about dinner time Eight
Cinnamon were going from Quingua
to Mololos, and from that station
were going to take the train for Ma
nil,. When they got about one mile
from Quingua they were attacted by
yadrones, otherwise called thieves
over in the states. They took four
of the Cinnamon with them and the
others got away. When the alarm
was given we started out in skirm.
ISL line with an advance guard
ahead, and when we got out half a
mile one of our boys tried to halt a
Jugua, and the latter refusing to
stop, one of the boys fired at him
and he dropped like log. On this
skirmish we burnt several baboom
shacks, returning to camp about
O'Clock in the afternoon without
catching our men, but we caught q
good dinner on return.
The latest news is that Gen
Bates wants the Third Infantry and
the 10th Infantry and the 18th In
fantry in his brigade. He was ir
command of our regiment when We
were over in Cuba, and he has some
knowledge OF the fighting qualities
of these regiments. There will soor
be general advance, and our regi
ment is likely to be on the line. W.

few pointers.

from three to five years. And then
they told him that the United States
was not very large, consisting of
Minnesota, North Dakota, South
Dakota, Nebraska, Oregon and two
or three other States. The Corporal
turned around and laughed at them,
and they biffed him for his Incidence.
The niggers all said that when the
American troops advanced they
would retreat to the mountains,
where the Americans would be
afraid to come up after them. The
Corporal told them the Americans
would 60 wherever the niggers

Recent reports from the Philip
pines show that Louis was right.
The American troops have advanced
and are driving the insurgents be-
fore them, and at this writing there
is every prospect of capturing Ag-
uinaldo, and then the back bone,
body and all of the revolution will
be broken.
