BARTON IS PENITENI.
Says Whisky Was the Cause Of His
Downfall. 4.

Horace A. Barton the mailing clerk in
the Butte postoffice who was detected in
the act of robbing the mail, IN account
of which appeared in last nights Inter
Mountain, will be arraigned before Unit
ed States Commissioner Wood this after
noon and will enter a plea of guilty.
In relating his troubles to an Inter
Mountain reporter this morning Barton
said that his downfall was caused by
whisky. He was married two years ego
and up to that time Had been following
the theatrical profession. He gave it
up at the request of his wife and took the
civil service examination for entry into
the postoffice last year and was employ
ed on June 1, 1899. -
About three months ago he had trou-
BILE with his wife and she left him and
he toook to drinking and says that he has
not been sober since. The trouble with
his wife, he says, is that he was not
able to dress her / nthe style that she
desired. At first he played roulette and
according to his statement is between
5000 and $500 ahead of the game. For the
last six weeks he has lone no gambling
whatever and has spent his money in
general dissipation. He says that twice
during the last two months he has had
attack of delerium tremens and this
morning was the first time that he has
been sober during that period. AS he could
not get liquor last night he woke up with
a clear head for a change.
I never stole anything before in my
life," said Barton. II was crazed with
drink and there We're days that I did not
know what 1 was doing. No, 1 have no

taken from letters. They say that 1t will
amount to about $3.50 but 1 do not think
that it is so much. I have been taking
money from letters for about two months
/ think, but never kept track of anything.
l am a college graduate but when 1 gave
up the theatrical profession I could get
nothing to do and so took the civil SER
vice examination for the postofice. While
I was living with my wife I never drank
a thing, but when she left me I got drunk
and have stayed in that condition ever
since. Well. I will have to stand the
consequences"
Barton is a fine looking man and
stands over six feet in height. He does
not look like a man who would be guilty
of petty theft and has a number of
friends in the city who are astonished to
learn that he has confessed his guilt.
There are a number of charges against
him as every theft constitutes a separate
offense n his term of Imprisonment

Assistant Postmaster Flavin in speak
ing of the matter said that for three
months past there have been a number
Of complaints and that during the last
two months the complaints have been
coming in thick N fact. A watch was
kept and suspicion finally rested on Bar
ton but nothing was done until the arri-
val of Inspector F. E. Mcmillan. The
latter caused the floor of the United

THE NEW LINE.

The work of constructing the new
street car line to VAUDEVILLE is pro-
gresssing rapidly, and Manager Whar-
ton says that the grading will probably
be finished by the end of this week. The
work of laying the iron will be completed
in two weeks, and the only thing that
will delay the completion of the road
will be the two crossings of the old
Montana Union and the b., A. & p. rail-
roads. These crossings will have to be
made in the east, but they are expected
to arrive before Dec. 1.

WHAT THE SUCCESS OF THE

That the success of the fusion ticket
in this county will result in endless min

last week when T. R. Kinds, who was ap-

tana company by Judge Clancy, made a
@~ location covering a number of pat
ented mining claims on Anaconda hill,
including portions of the Anaconda,
Never Sweat, Oden, Little Nina, Stew

A Simo'e Life

The main duties of wife, accord
ing to a traveller in Central Africa,
are the cultivation and preparation OF
the food Of her husband and children.
She has to do all the hoeing required,
and this generally occupies the morn
ing and forenoon. On her return she
has to wash and pound the chimanga
seeds into ufa which is the staple diet,
asd nay attention to the brewing of
nombe native beer. When the ufa is
cooked. so little does her lord and mas
ter appreciate all this work, SO little
docs he even care for her. that she
NAV not share his meal, but wait pa
tiently for what he may leave, or If he
hos not left enough, wait till he has
finished eating before she may cool
some for herself. Such thing as wo
men and girls eating out OF the sam
not as men and boys is never known.

repeated at the hem Of the skirt ana
bordering an insertion Of cluny lace.

sertions of guipure and having that
slight touch of black which Paris
dressmakers wisely consider necessary
to the gown of light coloring.
Hats on the Bots are crowded with
flowers. and many of them are tied be-
meath the chin with narrow black vel
