WANTS A DIVORCE.
SEQUEL TO HER HUSBAND'SELOPE-
MENT WITH ANOTHER WOMAN.

The sequel to the alleged elopement of
Hubert B. Boothby with Beatrice Waters
last fall found its wal into court today
by the fling Of a suit for divorce by
Boothby's wife. -
In the complaint plaintiff alleges that
the marriage Of the defendant and herself
took place in this city, on September 10th,
1886, but on May 10, 1899, the defendant
committed adultery with Beatrice Wat
ers of Butte and afterwards deserted
plaintiff. Mrs. Boothby asks for a de-
cree Of legal separation from her hus-
band n the restoration of her maiden
NAME, Dena s.. Peters.
During the summer Of 1899 the Booth
by's and Miss Waters were among a
party that visited the Yellowstone Park.
While on the trip Boothby and Waters
formed a strong acquaintance with each
other, but no one then questioned it's inn
propriety. After their return to Butte,
Mrs. Boothby went east and during her
absence 1t is alleged that Boothby and
the Waters woman were together consid-
erably. Shortly before the time arrived
for Mrs. BoothNby to return BoothCby sold
all Of the household furniture and is said
to have skipped out with the other wom-
an. The latter was heard from later-she
was then in. Canada, but no trace of
Boothby has ever been found. Miss
Waters home is in Canada, but she has
relatives in Montana and was visiting
them at the time she met Boothby.

Sprinter and Fighter.

Royal Oak, Mich, Jan. 4.-Rev. ]. j. Ak
tell the fighting parson, has had another
encounter, this time, with w. G. Moehn,
his landlord. The proposition was a
harder one than his go with the saloon
keeper a few days ago, and he got a bit
the worst of it. Moehn is quite a husky
fellow, and did not intend that the fight
ing parson should get the best of him
when he called at 10 o'clock last night to
get his rent. After a little palaver over
a sidewalk bill the minister started
swinging his arms as if he wanted to
fight. Moehn didn't want to. so he just
seized the reverend gentleman by the
wrists and added insult to injury by
laughing in his tenants face while he
held him. Unable to use his lands the
preacher began to kick and scream. To
save his shins the landlord released his
hold. of the parsons wrists, and the latter
ran around the house at a gait that
showed ability in sprinting eve greater
than his power as a fighter.
Axtell claims that when the landlord
picked up a club and was about to strike
him he (Axtell )then ran.
1t has become public that this is the
his bout with Dondero. A resolution has

been passed by the minister's congrega-
ton sustaining him for his fight with

InceSSant Fighting.

London, Jan. 4.-There is great salts
faction here at the news that De Aar has
been able to send Gen. French reinforce
ments of guns and infantry. of which he
appears to be so much in need. light
ig in the hills is incessant. Latest tele-
grams say French has almost surrender

Tending all their positions close to the
town preventing the British from captur-
ing it.
A dispatch from Rensberg this morning
says heavy artillery fire recommended at
daybreak.
Further details of the fighting between
Gatacre and the Beers at Cyphergat to-
day show 5000 Beers with artillery at
tackled the British outpost between Cyp-
and Molteno. Gen. Gatacre with
mounted troops n field artillery moved
out in front of Stockstrom and found the
Beers strongly posted at Copersberg
fleeing in the direction of ~Stormberg. The
Beers used the British gun captured
Dec. 10th, and shot we'll, but the British
kept under cover and there were no cas-
ualties on their side.
The war Office has received a report
from Capetown, dated Jan. 3: reporting
the situation in Gatacre's district. II
says: "Dordrecht is now evacuated by
Montmorency who occupies Birds sidinn
on the Indwe line. Molteno is being at
tackled to-day by h enemy who more
or less surround the station but, accord
ing to reports, are being forced back. Re-
Inducements of mounted infantry and
field artillery have been sent by Gatacre.
The result is not known. A company OF
mounted infantry under Anderson has re-
connoitered to Prieska and exchanged
shots with the rebel force on the north
bank. No movement of Generals Me-

IA false impression has been created

that there is discomfort and dislnay
among Russian owners of %trotters who
have imported American horses for the
purpose of improving the Russian breed.

ut is said that after limiting the WIN
nings of American horses, they per-
mitted horses bred in Russia, crossed
with American animals, to race for a
time; but When they proved their SUI
periOrity the same restrictions were i'm
posed on the cross bred as on the pure
bred American trotter. This. l am in
formed by ~Well-knOWn American horse
men long connected with leading racing
stables in Russia, is too broad a state
ment.
while American horses which out
class Russian horses as %trOtters have not
been permitted to trOt in all classes for
some years, and for that reason are un-
able to win much money in Russia,
American horses cross bred with Russian
were permitted to start in all but three
races that We're given in Russia during
the past season, viz: The Orloffski, 5000
rubles; the grand dukes prize, 10, 900
rubles, and the emperor's prize, 25, 900
rubles. At the summer meeting in Mos
COW there were 341 500 rubles hung up in
prizes, and half-bred horses were per-
mitted to start in all but the three races
named above, leaving 3O3, 900 rubles in the
purses for which the half-bred horses
competed.

A CLUB OF s1x-FooT AMAzoNs.

In London the latest woman's club to
be formed is of nineteenth century Anna
IONS. The first rule of membership OF
the new club is that every woman must
be six feet in height.
Amazonian proportions will obtain in
the clubhouse. The building is to be of
mammoth size, the suites of rooms to b.
spread out in vast distances. Nowhere
will the gigantic size of the fittings so
strike the eye as in the gymnasium. This
Is to be unique. with every modern APP
paratus for the development Of the hui
man form. Horizontal bars. rings and
vertical ope trapeze and all, will be
one-tenth larger than those used by ath-
letes of ordinary proportions.

THE NEW JAPAN.

Inc new Japan is the object Of special
interest to all the world, and especially
10 all Americans-and with good reason.
The United States was her godfather:
ana, now that she is essaying to walk
alone among modern nations, it is not
surprising that we should look with inter-
est, not to say solicitude. upon her first
steps. 1t is less thar halfa century since
our commodore M. G. Perry '~'persuaded'
Japan to open her doors, which had been
ciosed to all the world since long before
our nation existed. 1t was to the United
states that she first sent envoy to make
acquaintance and to observe the ways
OF the modern commercial and political
world. To our schools and colleges she
sent thousands of her best young men,
VINO nave now returned, and in turn are
lnstructing hundreds of thousands of her
people in the things which they learned
mere, writes Oscar p. Austin in the For
UNI.
Many American citizens have taken up
their abode in Japan as teachers in the
schools and colleges and as instructors in
modern methods, mechanical, mercantile,
financial and political. Numerous other
american citizens have visited Japan in
the interest Of the Christian religion, and
mlngling with the people, have carried
the light of modern methods with the
light Of the Gospel. Thousands of citi-
zenS or the United States have been resi-
dents of Japan during, the years since
the acquaintance of the two nations be-
gan, and tens Of thousands of japanese
citizens have. in that time, lived und II
the Stars and Stripes.
The citizens of the Unitde States resid-
ing in Japan to-day number more
1000, and of japanese in the United States
there are over 1000, or more than in all
Europe and the English colonies. while
in Hawaii there are over q, 900 Japanese
living unde the American flag and within
American jurisdiction. Finally, having
been the godfather. instructor and adj
wiser of Japan for many years, we have
now become her nearest n%eighbor-in the
Aleutian Islands at the north and in the
Philippines at the south; and the Vail
KEGS of the Orient and Occident, joining

tory which stretches along the entire Pa

tive tariff, instead of one whose highest

WANTED FOR MURDER|N COLORADO

a reward Of $3.50 for the capture of
Brumley, n several very clever detec-
tives worked on the case without result,
Brumley always managing to show them
a clean pair Of heels. In order to do so,
however, he has Travelled between 5000
and 5000 miles, over Old n New Mexico,
California and other coast states, arriv-
ing in Butte last Wednesday,.
A short time ago the city detective
bureau received a circular letter describ-
ing Brumley, and have since been on the
lookout for him.. Shortly after Brumlcy's
arrival he made application to DR.. Mon
roe for the position Of quarantine guard.
Last night he was put in charge of a
Guaranteed house on South Main street.
In connection with their duties the city
detectives encountered him. He tailed
with the description Of the murderer and
this afternoon they placed him under ar
rest. The officers expected a fight and
were surprised at the ready surrender of
their man. AS he was being taken to the
city Jail he told them they had made no
mistake. Brumley was interviewed by q
reporter for the Inter Mountain at the city
jail shortly after his arrest. He was ap-
parently very much relieved and SO ex-
pressed himself:
Il am the man the officers of Montezu-
ma county want" said he. II shot James
South. and I did 1t because he broke up
my home. I AVE Travelled more than
5000 miles during the past seven months
in order to resist arrest. and am glad that
my flight it at an end. 1 have been
thinking lately Of going back to Colorado
n giving myself up I want to stand
my trial. I have a family of seven chill
dren in Dolores.
II don't care to talk about the circum-
stances that led up to the shooting ex-
cept to say that this nan ruined my home
and when I killed him he was reaching
Tor his gun. I don't propose to go into
details-they will be forthcoming at the
trial. OF course I expect to be acquit-
ted"
Detective Murphy and Roy, as the re-
suit of the part they have taken in this
capture, will probably receive the re-
ward. Mr.. Murphy wired the sheriff of
Montezuma county of his capture.
AS Chief Leyden locked Brumley in he

Diplomacy Wins

London, Jan. 4.-The open door princi-
pie was the foundation Of British policy
in China during the protracted negotia-
tons which followed German and Rus
sian acquisition of harbors and territory
on the Chinese coast. Nothing came Of
it and the British government ended by
taking possession Of a harbor opposite
Port Arthur. When the Spanish war
came on, England was anxious to have
the Americans retain the Philippine is
lands and cooperate with her in the
maintenance of the open door principle
In the far east. The first object was Sc
cured when the treaty of peace was ne
gotiated in Paris and the second has
been accomplished by the diplomacy of
the cabinet at Washington.
The vigilant Washington correspond
ents of the Daily Chronicle and the
Manchester Guardian AVE announced
the success of the Mckinley government
in securing pledges from Great Britain,
Germany, France, Japan and Russia to
a guarantee that America shall have
equality of treatment in all portions of
China under foreign influence with the
exception Of purely naval stations. Thu
assent of Italy alone is lacking to rem
der this collective guarantee Of the open
door policy operative.
lag AIAlo AAAA was nav W HAA
about the United States government has
virtually done and the British press Is
slowly awakening to a sense of England's
obligations to America. Certainly If the
Americans were under obligation to
England for friendly services dur
ing the war with Spain, the ia
vor has been fully returned n in a
characteristic American way. While the
state department has been working out
the solution of the open door problem
in the far east, British cruisers have been
attempting to close a neutral port in
South Africa against American bread
stuffs, and establish a fatal precedent
against England in the event Of war with
any great European power. The con-
trast between these two policies requires
no comment.
The London press today is filled with
contradictory dispatches from New York
and Berlin respecting the disposition to
be made Of this question, but it is con-
f1dently assumed in diplomatic circles
here that compensation will be made
for the seizures and that foodstuffs will
not be classed as c~ontraband of war.

work, w. H. Brumley, alias w. H.
Hickey, who is wanted by the Colorado
authorities for murder, is in the city
1ail awaiting the arrival of the Colorado
officers, who have been advised of his
arrest. Brumley admits a he is the

The crime for which Brumley was ar
rested vas committed in the little town
Of Dolores. Montezuma county, Colorado.
on April gath Of last year. Brumley's
victim was @ man named John South.
The two men had formerly been partners
in the cattle business n were well
known in southern Colorado. They quar-
relied and a dissolution of the partner
ship resulted. The men of that section
of Colorado are largely engaged in cattle
raising, and the customs of the cowboy
are yet in vogue. A quarrel generally
mea business. On the day In question
the partners met on the main street Of
Dolores. South was armed with a re-
volver. Brumley carried a Winchester.
