Months in the County Jail.
A SURPRISE FOR KNIGHT
He Gets Fourteen Months for Being
Notorious Secretary-John Pennock

main Here for 90 Days.

Judge j. NJ. Kennedy was confronted
with a very peculiar case yesterday
during the trial of Jack Harris. The
latter was arrested on the complaint of
Mrs. Peter Boyle. who charged him
with beating her. Mrs. Boyle appeared
as the principal witness, and she ere
ated quite sensation in court, when
on the stand she testified it was not
Harris who had beaten her.
Judge Kennedy then charged a wo-
man known as Mrs. William Bell with
having assaulted Mrs. Boyle The lat
ter then switched and said she had
made mistake and that Harris was
the one who had assaulted her
The charge of assault was dropped
and Harris was charged with living in
adultery with Mrs. William Bell The
latter was placed upon the stand, and
she swore that she and Harris had been
living as husband and wife for more
than two years. Harris pleaded not
guilty, but he offered no defense to the
charge. He was found guilty and SEN
fenced to six months in the county Jail
and fined $500, which he was unable to
pay. He will have to serve "A months
in the county Jail.
Fred Knight, who was arrested early
yesterday morning charged with dis
turbing the peace by fighting, was yes
terday arraigned in the police court He
was charged with living in adultery
with Mrs. Taylor. He pleaded guilty
and was sentenced to IA months in the
county Jail.
John Pennock was yesterday sem
fenced to 80 days in jail, charged with
Vagrancy. Pennock was arrested some
time ago charged with being a secre-
tary. He pleaded guilty and was SEN
fenced to 80 days, but Judge Kennedy
gave him a tloater with the under
standing that he would leave town. He
did not do this and he will have to
serve out his sentence.

THE PESTS OF SPRlNGTlME.
How to Exterminate the Destructive and
Elusive Moth.

Elusive Moth.
From the Chicago Chronicle
Nothing is more trying among the
smaller ills of life than to have cloth
ing and furS and carpets eaten by
moths. Very often articles are not put
away soon enough in the spring; the
eggs are already laid in the stuffs be-
fore they are packed. and hatch in
the profound darkness in which they
revel
There is a general impression that
camphor or pepper or moth balls keep
away moths. but it is not so. They do
not in the least object to odors, ana
why such stuff is used at all is really,
mystery. Buffalo bugs seem really to
thrive on camphor, and to find espe-
ically congenial quarters in cedar
shelves or closets or trunks.
Every article should be carefully
brushed-all the pockets turned inside
out, brushed, and then turned smoothly
back again, and every spot of every
description carefully cleansed-for the
moths always seize upon a spot of any
sort as a particularly choice morsel.
Each garment should be folded sepa-
rately and very smoothly and wrapped
in old linen or cotton sheets, or parts
of them.
Newspaper is an excellent thing to
fold things in, as for some reason
moths particularly object to it. The
chests that things are to be packed
away in should be carefully wiped out
perfectly clean with a wet CLOTH so
that not a particle of dust fingers. 1t
IS well to spread large old sheet over
the open trunk and push it down, leav-
ing the surplus outside, and then to
fold that over when the trunk is
packed, for even one moth miller, II
it slips in, may undo all your work
and care. Never leave trunk open
moment. after it has been wiped out.
before packing it,
Very valuable furs should be exam
ined and beaten every two or three
weeks at the outside. 1t is a great deal
of trouble and great deal of care to
do all this, but people must pay for
fine possessions and must so regard
closet for keeping valuable woolens or
furS.
The very best sort of chest to pack
clothing away in is a good. solid chest
of good size and heavy. well fitted as
to joints and cover that any good car
penter can make. and if given a coat of
shellac or ,varnish outside, it will in
time be very handsome. Old paper
lined trunks should never be used, for
under the paper the moths are more
than likely to hareEdeposited their eggs.
Carpets that are nailed down close to
the Dashboard are often eaten there
even when the room is open and most
carefully swept. The only way to pre-
vent it is to satlirate the carpet once a
week in spring and summer with a lit
tie turpentine on the places where the
moths have eater or are likely to eat.
The turpentine will not injure the most
delicate colors, and is4the besttpreserva-
tive from moths known.

AN ELEGANT SWINDLER.
Raised Large Sums on a Burlesque In
yention for Railroads.


Rudolph Cavedoni, a very clever
swndler, says the London Telegraph,
has just been tried at the Vienna Grim
inal court for extensive frauds. His
astonishing skill in extracting r:cney
and goods from credulOus dupes by the
most improbable stories almost merits
admiration. The son of a respectable
family, he had served as junior gov
eminent clerk in the Austrian finance
department and as under secretary of
the Austrian embassy at the Vatican,
from which latter post he was dismiss
ed for INSTRUMENTATION.
Leaving his wife destitute in Rome,
Cavedoni returned to Vienna where
the finance department dispensed with
his services. After obtaining a divorce
from his wife, who had taken refuge in
a convent, he commenced life as a
sWindler. His elegant appearance, his
fascinating address and linguistic
knowledge were all in his favor in his
new career.
He patented at Bologna a pretended
invention to prevent railway collisions.
He asserted that every engine should
be provided in front with second set
of crooked rails. A sudden impact with
another engine would he stated, force
up these rails into the air, carry the
engine, presumably with its train of
carriages, uninjured over the opposite
wagons ana ldnQ II Sa1ely Ddck again
upon the main track. The consequences
to the train underneath during the
aeronautic bound he did not explain.
The idea Cavedoni had really bor-
rowed from an amusing sketch in al
back number of the Munich comic pa
per, the Fliegende Blaetter. Asked in
court if he believed in the practicability
of such an idea, he replied that he did,
with certain notifications He had, at
any rate, the bodnesS to petition the
directors of the Austrian Southern rail-
way for the loan of two trains with
which to experiment. On the strength
of this supposed invention he obtain
ed large sums from several gullible
persons.
Later on he assumed the title of mar
quis and among his victims were many
Credulous women. besides hotelkeepers.
jewelers. and tradespeOple, whom he
cheated altogether out of 10000 forms.
From one jeWeler alone he obtained
goods to the amount of several thou
sand forms for his supposed bride. He
presented himself to several leading
Hebrews in Vienna, offering. for the
modest sum of one and a half million
fiorins, to obtain from the pope with
whom he represented himself on intim-
ate terms, bull against the anti
Semites, threatening them with anath-
ema unless peace were made with the
Hebrew Fraternity. Afr a three DAYS
trial, during which many of Cav lpni's
victims appeared against him in court.
the jury found him guilty, and the
judge sentenced him to four years hard
labor.

She WANTS A DIVORCE
Mrs. Currier Alleges That Her
Husband Has Been Untrue.
SHE ASKS FOR ALIMONY
Mrs. l.. B. Walker, the Correspondent
in the Case-Plaintiff Claims That
Currier Failed to Provide Her
With the Necessaries of Life.

An action for divorce was yesterday
begun in the district court by Attor-
ney C. NJ Sawyer on behalf of Mrs
Mary Currier against her husband, Sam
ford Currier. The action is brought on
the ground of infidelity. In her COM
plant Mrs Currier alleges that they
were married on Feb. II, 1892, in the
town of Deer Lodge, and that she is
now a resident of the city of Anaconda
and her husband a resident of the city
of Butte; that as the fruits of said mar
riage there were born to the plaintiff and
to the defendant two children, Laura
Ethel Currier, aged years last Janu-
airy, and Blanche Irene Currier, aged
years last November, and these children
now reside with the plaintiff. She fur
Their alleges that on Dec. 10, 1898, and at
divers and different times since that
day the defendant has been guilty of
divers and different acts of adultery
with one Mrs. l.. B. Walker resident
of this city, and that the said defendant
did at said divers and different times
have sexual intercourse with her, the
said Mrs. L. 3. Walker, against the
will and the consent of the plaintiff
The complaint further alleges that
for more than one year last past the
defendant has wholly failed to provide
the plaintiff and their minor children
with the common necessaries of life, he
having the ability so to do. The
plaintiff claims that the defendant is
not fit and proper person to have the
custody of their said minor children.
The complaint further alleges that
the defendant is carpenter by trade,
earning the sum of S25 per week. and
has employment in the city of Butte
and that the plaintiff has no separate
estate and has no money or other means
the payment of costs and attorneys
fees, nor for the maintenance of herself
and their minor children during the
tendency of this action. The plaintiff
states that she has at all times con-
Quoted herself towards the said defend
ant as kind, faithful and dutiful wife.
Wherefore, the plaintiff prays judg-
ment for a divorce and that she be
awarded the custody of their children
and that the defendant be required to
pay into court the sum of 500 for the
use and benefit of plaintiffs counsel for
the prosecution of this action and that
it be further ordered and adjudged by
the court that the defendant pay to the
plaintiff the sum of s25 per month as
alimony after the final hearing of this
action and for her costs and for such
may seem equitable in the premises.
