SUPREME COURT
TODEFINE CRUELTY
Question Raised Yesterday in an
Appeal on the Bartlett
Divorce Case.

The Supreme Court heard arguments
in an appeal from an order refusing a
divorce yesterday. The case is that of
Corrinne Bartlett VS.. w. s. Bartlett,
wherein the Circuit Court was asked for
a divorce on the ground of cruelty. There
was no defense bX the husband but the
lower court dismissed the libel on the
ground that no cruelty was shown. The
plaintiff in the case. it appeared from the
argument. testified that her husband had
abused her by charging her with adul-
terry, and this constituted the cruel treat
ment of which complaint was made. The
court below did not accept the testimony
as proving cruelty. and dismissed the
suit
II. a. Bigelow, appearing for the ap-
peilant yesterday. argued that it did not
require bodily injury TO constitute cruel
ty, and that there was such a thing as
mental cruelty, from which the appel
liant in this action had suffered. There
was no appearance by the defendant in
this case. The Supreme Courts ruling
in this case will be awaited with much
interest as il viii no doubt define ex-
actly what Is cruelty.
The court also heard arguments in the
case of zee Sing Tai & Co. VS.. Marion
Luning. J. A. Magoon appeared for APP
pellant. the plaintiff. and stated that
hereafter he would appear by himself In
all cases where MagOon Thompson
were noted as attorneys. He complain
ed in this case that the lower court had
rendered judgment in favor of defend
ant without even hearing any evidence
from the defense
The case of G.. r. Boardman VS.. Fire
mans Fund Insurance Co. was TO follow
the above cases, and the attorneys were
ready to proceed to argument when
Chief Justice Frear announced that ne
considered himself disqualified, having
learned that his father was interested in
the defendant company.

DEVILTRY OF
DESERTERS
They Are Responsible for Nearly
All the Recent Fatalities
Perpetrated.

The latest advices from Samar go to
show that the massacre of Company
c, of the Ninth Infantry, at Balan-
guingan last month. was planned by
deserters from the United States army.
At present there are known to be four
deserters from volunteer regiments in
Samar, and it is also known that at
least two of them acted as spies
among the troops of the Ninth Infant
ry two days before the slaughter at
Balanguingan. Several companies Of
the First Infantry have property on
the Island of Samar which they were
compelled to leave at the time they
were relieved by the Ninth Infantry
This property is in charge of men
from the companies To which il be-
longs. The men whom il IS now
known were spies were in the towns
where this baggage is stored, and wore
khaki uniforms, regulation belts and
carried rifles. The men of the Ninth
Infantry naturally took them for mem
bers of the First Infantry, and paid no
particular attention TO them. These
men are supposed to be the individuals
responsible for the massacre OF the
company of the Ninth that met death
so CALAMITY at Balanguingan.
The deSerterS on Samar are becoming
very bold. a discharged hospital corps
man who is in Manila at present
awaiting transportation TO the United
States, stated to a representative of
the Times last night that ii is no I'M
frequent thing to find notices in Eng
lish posted on trees and shrubbery in
viting Americans to join the insur-
gents, and giving instructions as to
how they are to present themselves for
enlistment
1t is also a well known fact that
certain deserters from the Ninth Cav
airy (colored) are responsible for all
the trouble American troops have
been having with the insurgents ii
Batangas province. The authorities
recognize the fact that deserters from
the Ninth Cavalry led the insurgents
during the fight near Lipa in July, at
which time Captain Wilhelm and
Lieutenant Ramsey. Of the Twenty
first Infantry; Lieutenant Lee. of the
engineers, and several enlisted men
were killed. 1t Was remarked at the
time that the shooting had been too
accurate for natives to render such
dire results Later, il was ascertained
definitely that deserters led the ma
tives and fred the shots that killed

THE editor of the Solomonville Bull. letin was recently shut off from the the mails by floods and tells how it feels as follows: 'It gets mighty lonesome editing a weekly newspaper without the comfort and assistance which comes from the exchanges. Delayed mails is especially annoying to the newspaper man. We had rather do without one, or even two, meals day than do with out the papers which come from all parts of the territory daily. The Star, Citizen, the Gazette, the Enterprise, Republican, Courier, JOurnal-Miner and Bisbee Review give us daily ad- vice concerning what is going on in Arizona, but the weeklies are even more welcome than the dailies. They tell us of the doings at Globe, St. John, Holbrook, Winslow, Kingman, Flag staff, Yuma and all the other towns supporting weekly newspapers. When the territorial papers cease coming somehow we get blue and lonesome. There is something like feeling of kinship in this office for all the Ari- zona newspapers"

EVERY time Gov. Murphy goes East it is announced with a flourish of trumpets by certain Democrats and Republicans that he is going to resign. Last week when the Governor went to New York he had scarcely crossed the line into New Mexico when the report was spread that the resignation was cock sure this time. However, the friends of the governor know that he has no intention of resigning and that he has no reason for doing so. His trip was at the suggestion of eastern men of capital who desire making invest ments in Arizona, which will aid in its further development, and to spend few days with his brother, F. M. Murphy, who sailed for Europe this week.

THE new Hungarian system of tele- graphy, the introduction of which was announced eighteen months ago, has been marvellous success. The system has been installed between Buda Pesth and Plume, distance of 375 miles, and is in practical working order at speed of 40, 900 words an hour. The messages are written in Roman characters, and require no transcription. Negotiations are in progress for establishing the system in France and Germany. The latter government will give it a trial between Berlin and Cologne, and the installation will be completed in short time. The system is an ingenious com bination of the telegraph, the tele- phone and photography, the message being written on sensitized paper by ray light and developed and fixed by an automatic process.

IT would be interesting to know the causes that have contributed to the longevity of the people of the United States the past ten years. The average age of death in 1890 was 3l.l, while that for 1900 was 35.2. Doubtless two leading influences are the general inn prOvement in sanitation in cities and the more intelligent care of infants. It was the abnormal mortality among children, more especially among in- fants. that kept the life average low for many years.

Were Daxed by n $1,000 Bill.
There was one division of one of the

half an hour ono day last week. A
woman bought some handkerchiefsi
and a pair of towels. The clerk footed
her bill. 40 cents, and the woman laid

The clerk. a girl, looked at it hastily.
1t read $1,000. She had never seen a,
thousand dollar bill before in her life,I
and the amazcment it caused made her
specchlcss. With her mouth open in
wonder she made out the check, show
ing that 10 cents was to be taken out,
OF $1,000. The girl who acts as cashiers
fell back in her chair when she saw the
bill. She didn't have change for it,
and after gazing at it in wondering adj
nlratlon for moment she rushed out
to find the manager. He asked for the
customer who had offered 1t, and the
girl led the way to where the woman
was waiting. The clerk had recovered
from her surprise enough to point out
the customer.
The manager said, "Madam, what
did you buy:'
The woman named over the small
articles.
What did you give the clerk?,

NO; You gave her this, and it is

To Make a Gln.. Cutter.

A glass cutter can easily be made
with an ordinary mapping pen and a
small piece of carborundum, or carbide
of silicon. Cut off Il part of the nib to
form a small tube. Fit crystal or
part of one of carborundum into the
tube, take it out again and dip one end
In seccotine or any other cement and
replace it. Next wind n piece Of fine
wirc tightly around the tube and part
OF the handle and fix it in notch cut
IN the Inter. Put it aside for day to
nllow the cement to harden. A glass
cutter made thus will do its work as
we'll as the expensive diamond and n
great deal better than the ordinary
wheel cutter.

deadliness we should see a monster
which would dwarf into insignifcance
all the monsters ever begotten by hui
man imagination. The microbe has this
in common with the tabled monster, its
food is human flesh and its drink human
blood. It battens OH slaughter. For
centuries medical science fought this
microbic foe in darkness. The presence
of the foe was recognized, its deadliness
conceded. But it was ever an invisible
foe, unknown and unnamed. To-day
science with eye-power increased mil
lion fold finds this lurking foe, knows it
and names it.
FINDING THE FOE
is the first step, fighting it intelligently
is the next. We know this minute or
ganism turks in the air we breathe, the
food we eat, the water we drink. We
know the object of attack is the blood.
We know that as the .nicrobe is bred
