HAT WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL.
The Owner Tried to EcOnomiZe, With
Fearful Results.

This is a plain. unvarnished story of a
lady who trimmed her own hat, says an
exchange. She was endeavoring to econo-
mZe and conceived the brilliant idea that
by purchasing the trimmings and the
frame she could construct a hat that
would be quite as hdeouS as the ordinary
millinery creation and at much less cost
So she made a dozen or more trips down
town and finally had gathered together a
trunk full of bits of ribbon. steel buckles,
gauze, flowers. birds, fiber chamois
bolts, rivets. barbed wire, varnish, bicycle
cement. galvanized iron, lincrusta walton
and all the singular ingredients of 'wo-
mans hat, together with fearful and
wonderful frame that looked much like
wire waste basket after tug of war
with steam engine. Then she haunted
the display windows and changed her
mind, something like a thousand times re-
garding the manner in which she would
trim that hat.
She sewed on and ripped off the birds
so often that they looked much bedrag-
gled, and were, indeed, very sad-looking
birds, but she finally succeeded in assem-
bling the hat, and then. as she was go
ing on visit to her mother and sisters,
who lived in a small city, she wore the
magnificent creation, calculating that
they would 60 into commissions over her
hat And they did After they had kissed
her several times and assured her of their
undying love her mother, who is wise
woman with keen sense of the proprie-
ties. babe the elder of the unmarried sis
tiers ring for the carriage.
II am so glad to see my dear daughter"
she said, that I must buy her some
thing. Now you drive down to the mil
linery store and buy her the prettest hat
there before any Of her friends see her."
After the economical daughter had de-
parted for the millinery store the remain
ing members of the family fell upon the
floor and screamed with laughter, for
they knew a good thing when they saw
it, even if they did live in a jay town.

LIGHT ON THE DREYFUS CASE ?

Disclosures by the Translator of Docu-
ments Purchased by Germany.
The Jewish Sentiment of Atlanta,
Ga, has printed story bearing on the
Dreyfus trial. For the first time, it is
believed the mode of carrying the doc
uments from, the war office to the Ger
man government is given.
1t shows that dolls We're used as the
means of conveyance, and that the pa
pers went first to England and then to
Germany.
The story which the Sentinel prints
comes from a man who was employed
several years ago by the German gov
eminent as document transla tor and
maker of relief maps, and who, after
quitting Germany, served in the United
States army during the war with
Spain. He shows his discharge papers,
which denote that ne was q staff Of

The story after some Introductory re-
marks, reads:

and the copy could only have been
given out through the direct agency
or connivance of chief of department.

IS CRUEL AND |NHUMAN
That's Young Binnard's Charge
Against His Wife.
IN A SUIT FOR DIVORCE
He Says She Struck Him With a Stick
and With Her Fists, and Threw
.-- Collection OF Dishes
.. at Him.

An unusual and somewhat remarkable
suit for divorce was instituted in the dis
trict court yesterday by A. S. Binnard,
against Winnifred Agnes Binnard. Be-
fore the action was commenced Morris
Binnard petitioned the court to appoint A.
S. Binnard his guardian ad Item. He
stated in his petition that he is minor,
being under the age of q years. and want
ed to bring a suit for divorce. Judge
Lindsay signed the order appointing the
guardian. after which the complaint in
the action for divorce was filed. The
young husband, through his guardian, al
leges that he is but 20 years old now and
was married to the defendant at Butte
on July II, 1898. Since their marriage, he
says, the defendant has treated him in
cruel and inhuman manner. In October
of last year, less than three months after
their marriage, she struck him in the face
with her fist in violent manner, and
again last February she broke a stick
over his head and at the same time called
him vile name. A few days later she
used both fists on him and beat him,
and on the Goth of July, a few days after
their first wedding anniversary, she
struck him repeatedly.
The complaint says that at numerous
times between Oct. l, 1885, and Aug. 2S,
1899, she struck him with her fists and
with dishes and other utensils or any
thing that she could find in and about the
house.
The youthful husband says the various
acts complained of have caused him great
mental anguish and suffereing and caused
him to become ILL., Many of the acts of
cruelty were inflicted in the presence of
other persons. all of which was humiliat-
ing and annoying to the plaintiff and add
ed to his mental suffering.
On Aug. rs last the defendant left her
home in Butte and went to Salt Lake, and
has refused to return to the plaintiff
home or have anything further to do
with him. He says that all the acts COM
planned of were committed wholly without
provocation, and that as a result of such
treatment on the part Of the defendant he
became sick and was for a time con-
fined to his room g
An interesting fact in relation to the
case is that the marriage license record in
the Office of the clerk of the district court
shows that when the license was taken
out on July 1G, 1898, Binnard gave his
age as 81
The girl whom he married was Winni-
fred A. Matthews, and her age was 10.

district court yesterday asking to be
appointed guardian of Elberding's es-
tate. The only difference between Do
hertys petition and that filed few
days ago by Henry Albertson asking
for the appointment of Ike Morehouse
is ton the valuatio placed on Elber-
dings interest in the M. & M. saloon
and gambling house. Albertson valued
his partners sixteenth interest in the
business at $500. and Doherty places it
at $1,000, thereby raising the entire
value of the estate to $9,700 Judge
Lindsay set Doherty's petition :. for
hearing on October %.
In the suit of w. A. Clark and broth
err against John Caplice and others, the
plaintiffs yesterday filed replication in
court denying all the allegations of
the defendants answer and cross COM
plant. 1t is denied that the plaintiffs
have added $75,237 to the original note
without the authority or consent of the
defendants. 1t is also denied that no
consideration passed for any part of
the note except $4,000. The replica
ton says only $4,000 has been paid on
the Indebtedness and the claim of the
defendants that $61, 1866 has been paid
is denied.
