DEED OF A FIEND.
GAVE A GIRL POISON AND RUIN
ED HER.
Had Been Living With Her Parents
for Years-Is Now in the
County Jail.

Frank Gulon vas arrested last night
on a charge of rape. The arrest was
made by Officer Radmilovich at the in
stance of Mrs. August Benz. mother of
the alleged victim. The girl who charges
Gulon with this awful offense is Is years
OF age. Gulon is a miner and is about
~ years old. He has made his home with
MI. and Mrs. Benz for several years, and
some time 6 Mrs. Benz noticed hat he
was paying more attention to her daugh-
ter than was proper Yesterday a cir
cumstance occurred which increased her
suspicious, and she went to her daugh-
ter and questioned her closely. The girl
finally told the mother enough to con
vince her that Gulon had accomplished
his purpose. Mrs. Benz Immediately
started out to locate Gulon. She took
Officer Radmilovieh with her to an East
Park street saloon. a resort fr~equented
by Gulon She found him in the place,
and walking boldly up to him, said to
the officer:
''Thi is the man."
Gulon was somewhat surprised. He
was taken to the city jail and later
sent to the county Jail. Mr.. and Mrs.
Ben say they will send Gulon to the
penitentiary il such a proceeding is pos
sible.
Mrs. Benz said her intention was first
attracted to the condition of affairs by
the amount of candy Iulon was giving
her daughter. One day she went into
Gulon's room and examined some of the
candy. 1t was a chocolate cream. A
small cavity had been made in the candy
and in this Mrs. Benz though. she saw
a brown powder. She resovled to be
sure about it and took the candy to a
drug store and had it analysed. The
druggist pronounced it Spanish Fly pow
der. She knew that her daughter had
eaten some of the candy, and some close
questioning resulted in a confession from
the girl.

FROM THE TOP OF A TELE-
PHONE POLE.
SKULL CRUSHED AND He
DIED IN TWENTY MINUTES,
Accident Occurred in Front Of Central
{ Office Of Telephone Company
William Courtney the Victim.

William Courtney, a lineman in the
employ of the Rocky Mountain Bell Tele-
phone ompany met with an awful
death about 10 o'clock this morning. He
was at work on the top of a telephone
pole, when, as it is supposed, he encoun-
tered a live wire. He fell to the pave
ment. a distance of 40 feet, sustaining
a bad fracture at the base of the skull.
He lived about 20 minutes after receiv-
ing the injury.
The accident occurred in front of the
central office of the telephone company,
on West Broadway, and was witnessed
by a large number of people. Courtney,
with half a dozen other men. was at
work s%tringing a new wire. He and w.
c. Swartz were on the pole, near the
top. Courtney was facing the west. Sud-
denly Swartz heard him eXclaim "Oh!'
"Oh." OH three times ,as though in
great pain. At the same time the men
at work below, attracted by his cries,
looked up and saw the flash of a live
wire. Swartz turned just in time to see
his fellow-workman fall.
Courtney fell backwards and struck
the sidewalk on his side and head. He
was at once picked up and carried into
DR.. Wells office, which is in the build
ing. However he was beyond medical
assistance and died in a very short time.
Coroner Julien was notified and the
remains We're removed to Richards un-
dertaking rooms.
Courtney had been a resident of Butte
for the past five years, and was very
popular among his associates. Prior to
coming to Butte he resided in st. Paul.
He was about so years old and single.
He had no relatives residing in this city.
Superintendent Miller of the telephone
company stated that Courtney had been
in the employ of the company only a few
months, but that he had known him a
much longer time and was Of the Npin-
ion that he was a very careful workman
and one who would take no unnecessary
chances in dangerous work. He also
said that the character of the work in
which Courtney was engaged this morn
ing was not considered dangerous.

Greatest Knitters In the world.

All the women of Shetland knit.
They learn the art in early childhood
and continue it all through their lives
The wool used for their knitting is
grown on the islands and is carded
and spun by the people themselves.
Machinery they have not except the
primitive spinning wheel Many Of
the most elaborate shawls have taken
months to make and some even years.
SO that a very fine shawl may be worth
as much as $3.50 or 5000. Most of the
knitting is, however, Of the more home
~ and serviceable kind and may be
bought from theswomen themselves for
very moderate price.
The manner in which the washing of
knit shawls is accomplished in Shet-
land is a matter Of interest to most
visitors. They are washed carefully
in soap lather, and then to prevent
their shrinking they are laced from

BROUGHT BACK OLD TINES
A Tidb1V That Was Not on the Res

A Tidbkv That Was Not on the Res
taurant Bill of Fare.
The force of childhood recOllections
and the truth of the quotation, "a
touch of nature makes the whole world
akin" were shown graphically by a
little incident in restaurant the 9th
er day. A quiet looking, middle aged
man of prosperous appearance was
eating his dinner when another well
dressed man took a seat opposite him.
After giving his order in bluff, genial
manner the newcomer took sip Of
water and faced around Suddenly a
queer expression came over his face
as he watched attentively the actions
of his vis-a-vis, and apparently with
out realizing what he was doing he
blurted out in a loud tone, "Well, well.
well!''
Every one at the table, including the
quiet looking man, started, and the
others, observing the direction Of the
speakers gaze, turned their eyes also
upon him of the quiet appearance to
see what had caused the exclamation.
The man who had come in first was
in the act of spreading sugar over a
slice of buttered bread, and when he
realized that all eyes were turned upon
him he blushed like one detected in a
heinous crime and almost fell off his
chair. 1t took him minute or two to
recover, and then he said to the table
in general

sugar for being good when was
child, and eating 1t is habit which l
like to indulge in even yet. l know it
isn't upon the restaurant bill of fare.
but l couldn't resist the temptation"
Il must beg your pardon for my rude
exclamation" replied the other man.
"My mother used to put bread and
butter and sugar in my lunchbox when
l went to school as an 8-year-old up in
the country town where was raised,
and I haven't eaten any since my
childhood, and guess I'll join you in
a piece now for the sake Of old times"

The Peculiar Liquid Which This Gu

The cuttlefsh are caught in great
numbers off the Cornwall coast and
are used as bait for the conger eel,
for which this part Of the world is Gel
ebrated. The cuttlefsh possesses no
real mouth, but has long, cylindrical
sucker with which it adheres firmly to
the bait. The method Of capturing the
fish is as follows: A long line from
which are suspended from 200 to 300
hooks baited with portions of pilchards
almost the only bait the cuttlefish will
take) is let down into the sea and al
lowed to stop there for about half an
hour. 1t is then drawn up, and the
cuttlefsh are found hanging by means
of their suckers to the bait.
The moment that they leave the wa
tiers they eject with considerable force
great quantity of deep, black, viscous
substance which is about the consisten-
cy of treacle, and the stain made by it
upon the clothes of the fishermen is
permanent if it happens to fall upon
them.
l had a conversation with one man
who has several times received a full
charge in his face, and he assured me
that beyond the smell. which is most
nauseous. he felt no inconvenience at
all, no smarting or pain in his eyes and
no bad after effects.
If any of the liquid gets upon the
nets it rots them beyond repair IN
less it is washed off Immediately. An
other curious fact is that this fluid
will not injure cloth in the slightest
degree beyond making a permanent
stain. One man told me that he had
used jersey for several years which
had been squirted all over at different
times by these cephalopods. but that
except for the cloth being stained il
was as good as ever.

our working world very large. Many Oh
are hard workers. Our laboring classes
are found in herds and hordes in the
'shives of industry" What is all this work
for? In most cases it is for daily bread,
in many for maintenance of others. Great
numbers also work to acquire wealth.
Some for great commercial prominence.
Some to preserve intact a splendid inheri-
lance. Necessity generosity and ambition
are the inspiration of all classes of indus
try, and the object of every one falls to the
ground when ill-health attacks him.
Maintaining health is the most vital
thing in the world for workers of every
class, and the usefulness of DIR. Greene's
Nervura blood and nerve remedy, as
strengthened of the constitutional and
vital powers, is beyond all question. This
great remedy enters into partnership
with Nature and helps human beings do
their work without giving up to prema-
ture decay. The strain of work is on the
minds of some, on the bodies of others,
but the nourishing of either, or both, is
in the nerves and blood. Nervura acts
directly on the fountains of health and e
its strengthening power is wonderful.
