the Trial.
Special to The Globe.


LA CROSSE, Wis, Dec. 2S.-Elsie Gile
Scott, millionairess. and club woman, has
been granted a divorce from her hus-
band, Robert A. Scott, in the circuit
court here. Non-support and incompati-
bility are given as the reasons for the
action, although it is understood that
the real causes are of a sensational char
acter.
For two weeks before the :.ction was
started Mrs. Scott hired a Pinkerton de-
tective, whom she set on her husbands 5
track and who watched his every move.
Owing to the fact that the defendant
made no resistance the sensational fea-
lures were not aired in court. For the
last fifteen years Mr.. and Mrs. Scott
have been man and wife in name only.
She occupied one part of their palatial
mansion, he the other. Mrs. Scott is the
daughter of the late Abner Gile, the mil
lionaire lumberman.

1t was a moonlight night. The Beers

of their tents the Beers sWooped through
them, shooting the soldiers as they came
out. Most of the British officers were
shot while. trying to stem the rush.
The Beers, who apparently numbered
about 1,2O0, under Gen. Dewet behaved

An Old Spanish Coin Found on the Sands

To the Editor: About twelve years
ago my son and | were walking over the
sands, in front of the town of Edenton,
which had been exposed by the sweeping
away of the waters of Edenton. bay by
the hitherto prevailing winds, when my
son found an old silver Spanish coin
marked with and bearing date I'LL.
Among others / exhibited the coin to Col
onel John II. Garrett, an intelligent ana
we'll informed gentleman. who stated
there was a legendary statement to the
effect that in 1872 or about that time.
the Spaniards made an assault upon
the. town or settlement. He remarked
that he had not thought of it for some
time and but for the finding of this coin,
it probably would not have occurred to
him again. Since that time | have often
wondered where he picked uD this bit of
information The colonel died not long
after finding the coin and | never had an
opportunity OF asking him more particu-
larly about the legend. The figures and
letters on the coin were as distinct as
when it was first minted or coined,
showing that it had not been handled or
used very much during its existence, and
this fact would seem to give credence to
the statement of Colonel Garrett. It is
quite certain. if dropped by Spaniard
during an assault upon the town, or set
tlement that the coin, being. under the
water, unexposed to the corrosive effects
Of the atmosphere, would have remained
unchanged and presented the appear
ance which it did when found. | could
not detect any apparent effect produced
by the water except that the coin had
become black and furnished, as is usually
the case with silver when unused. If any
of your readers can throw any light upon
this incident of ESQ far as | am alvarez

have them do so. 1t is curious how for

Some of the most dangerous diseases
are often indicated by very slight symp-

kidney and bladder diseases. which any
competent physician will tell you are as

Nature has simple, but unmistakable
means of giving warning when the health
