OLD SOLDIERS WIN.
Representative Mqintire's Bill Goes
Through.

The old soldiers had their day in
the house Monday, says the Helena
Record. That body passed upon
favorably in committee of the whole
Mr.. McIntire's bill to repeal the sec
tion of the political code which re-
quires inmates of the soldiers home
to turn over to the home two-thirds
Of whatever pensions they may re-
ceive. Macginnis inquired what the
purpolt Of the bill was and in reply,
Mclntire, the author, went into de-
tailed explanation. He said that
only one-half of what the old soldiers
pay into the home by assigning two
thirds of their pensions to it, amount
ed to only little over $13 apiece last
year, as the government took one-half
of it. He said that there are many
inmates of the home who need the
money they pay in to assist in sup
porting families and he did not think
that the "old boys" who defended the
stars and stripes ought to be deprived
of their pensions

SLAPPED HER FACE.
Ungallant Conduct Of Senator Sul:;

Ungallant Conduct Of Senator Sul:;.
Washington Feb. 4.-The slapping
of a young woman's face in the street
by United States senator is scan
dial that has stirred official Washing
ton as deeply as the Breckinridge-
Pollard affair of several years ago.
Whatever sympathy was felt for Sen
ator William V. Sullivan of Mississippi
because of the breach of promise suit
against him by Miss Lucy Lection his
former stenographer has been dissi-
pated by his ungallant conduct toward
her.
Indignation reached such an acute
stage against the Mississippi senator
today that he was practically ostra-
cized.
His associates in the senate shun-
ned him and in the places where the
statesmen congregate during their
leisure hours men moved away when
he appeared.
Miss Lection and Senator Sullivan
met Saturday evening near New Jer-
sey avenue and c street, and after a
heated argument the senator slapped
her face.
His version of the affair is that the
woman had been writing him letters
asking for money. When they met
by accident she abused him until lie
was beside himself with rage and
struck her.
Miss Lection says that she was TAX
ing dinner in restaurant when a
friend of Senator Sullivan approached
her and called her outside, ostensibly
to give her letter. Senator Sulli-
van was on the side walk, she says,
and asked her to walk up the street
with him. She did so. He grew
angry as they talked and, turning on
her. slapped her in the face three
times
Miss Leeton's suit for breach #
promised was filed October 26, 1900.
In it she recited that she had gone
to Senator Sullivan to procure di
vorce from her husband. He sent
her to a business college, obtained
the divorce she sought and afterward
brought her to Washington. For
three months. she says they lived to-
gether in Alexandria as Mr.. and Mrs
Sutton. Afterward he placed her II
seminary in Warrenton, Va. At
ter his appointment as United States
senator, she says, he brought her to
Washington and introduced her as
his niece. Senator Sullivan's first
wife was a sister of Congressman Joe
Bailey of Texas.
Two months after Miss Leeton's
breach of promise suit was filed he
married Mrs. Mary Newman Atkins
daughter of famous western physi
clan. Several police were on guart
at the church during the wedding.

Mexico buys more American books
than does France, and nearly as
many as Germany. Much of this
trade is due to the large resident
American population to be found in
Mexican cities and to the demand
from mining camps where Americans
are living. and not little is due to
the growing spread of English among
the Mexican people.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 22.-The min
istry of the interior yesterday issued an
other statement about the famine. Five
and a half million pools of winter grain
and three millions of summer grain has
been purchased and forwarded to the needy
districts. The total grain purchases are
given as exceeding sixteen million pools,
for which 100000 roubles has been ex-
pended. The entire famine fund so far
dispensable is 14.21S,2 5S roubles. The origi-
nal estimates of grain to relieve the fam
inc districts are now found to be excessive.
and they have consequently been reduced
in a number of cases. Conditions in Asiatic
Russia are still bad. and much relief will
be sent there. Petitions for official procla-
nation of famine from Asiatic Russia were
received from twenty-seven districts and
were granted In twenty-five.
Private reports which have appeared in
the press from time TO time are not nearly
as optimistic as the governmental. Hun
Ger and disease have been reported much
more prevalent than the ministry of the
interior admits In addition to direct help
for the famine districts, indirect help has
been granted in several forms. Working
men travelling to public works will enjoy
the moderate emigrant rate, and materials
needed for the works, as well as grain,
will be distributed at greatly reduced
tariffs.
The Emperor has just sanctioned the
beginning of preliminary work on the two
great railroads.&c. and
the Bologoye-Siedlitz. The latter is a STRAIT
egic road leading to the western frontier.
Many workmen from the famine districts
will find employment in clearing the right
of way of these roads.

There is no way of accounting for the

cause for suicide. At 1890 he is reported

NEW CLUBHOUSE FOR PURDUE.


Special to the indianapolis Journal.
LAFAYETTE, Ind, Dec. S.-Two of the
greatest needs of Purdue University bid
fair TO be supplied in the very near future.
The first, an assembly hall of adequate
size, was recently made possible by Mrs.
Eliza Fowler's magnificent gift of $780, 0O
for this purpose. The second, a clubhouse
for the exclusive use of the members of the
various athletic teams, and which has been
for some time one of the fond dreams of
the Boiler Makers" will soon become a
reality. The initiative was taken by the
class of 1903 at a meeting held on Friday
evening in the old chapel, when they
pledged themselves TO raise $1,000 to be APP
piled in the erection of the proposed club
house. The other three classes are no less
anxious to see the project carried out and
will heartily take a hand in raising the
cost of the building, doubtless making gifts
TO their alma mater of a similar nature and
purpose.
In this clubhouse the players will live,
enjoying comfortable rooms with all posi-
bic modern cOnveniences and the advantage
of being near the university buildings,
training quarters and the athletic field. Ii
is proposed to set a good training table in
the same building for the players. In
short, every effort is TO De made TO afford
Purdue teams of the future the best of
and care.
