sNowBIRD ENDOWMENT SUIT.
Anaconda Mining Company Asks for
Continuance and Judge Clancy
Grants It.

F. A. Heinze, the Montana Ore Pur-
chasing company and the Johnstown
company. defendants in the application
of the Anaconda Mining company for
an order enjoining them from working
the vein Of the Snowbird mine, had an
inning in Judge Clancy's court yester-
day, and at it's conclusion the judge
granted a request of the plaintiff for
continuance, carrying the matter over
until June 10.
The contention of the defendants in
the case Is that the Anaconda Mining
company once agreed to sell the prop
erty to Mr.. Heinze for 100000; that the
money was paid, but that the deed was
not executed because of a suit instituted
to prevent the sale by the Lewisohn
brothers, who owned stock in the Ana
conda. 1t is claimed that the money
was returned to Heinze, but that the
Anaconda still holds negotiable bonds of
the Montana Ore Purchasing company
to the amount of $150,00O to bind the
agreement to sell.
1t is also alleged that the vein of the
property apexes in ground owned by the
Montana Ore Purchasing company.

TO STOP AN. EXISTING EVIL
Crusade Against Expectorating
on the Street.

The Butte Federation of Women's
clubs has taken Arm stand for cleanli
ness in Butte, especially on the side
walks. At the meeting held at the Buzzo
home in Walkerville Monday afternoon
a number of things were discussed rela-
tive to municipal reform. 1t was decided
however. to first attack the habit of ex-
pectorate on the sidewalks.
To that end committee was sent to
confer with the board Of health. That
august body decided to recommend to
the council the enactment of an ordi-
nance making 1t a misdemeanor to ex-
pectorate on the sidewalk within a GER
tain district from Quartz to Galena and
from Idaho to Arizona streets, the pun
ishment for SO doing to be left with the
council to determine.
The Federation will meet in few
days with DIR. Leggatt and discuss the
situation. The Board of Health seemed
to think that if the law was passed,
there would be difficulty in securing wo-
men to appear against the breakers of

it. The board was assured that too
many women had suffered the loss OF
handsome gowns, not to take an active
interest in seeing that the evil doors
were punished. AS soon as the matter
comes before the council the Federation
can proceed with the crusade.
Away back in 1900 there was just such
an ordinance drawn up and presented
to the council. This was Just before an
election. The member most active in its
behalf was not reelected and when 1t
was voted on it received just one vote.
That was the first and last attempt

REMOVAL OF ADMINISTRATOR
Handler of Provost Estate to Show
Cause Why He Should Not
Be Deposed.

Judge Harvey held a short session of
court today and his first official act was
the removal of Samuel Hall as admins
TRAITOR of the estate of Charles Provost.
which esq te is valued at about $1,000.
Mr.. Hall is a real estate dealer and
was appointed by Judge Lindsay to take
charge of the estate shortly after tho
death of Mr.. Provost, a request for his
appointment having been made by Mrs.
Provost. the widow Shortly after Hall
was appointed, however, Mrs. Provost
petitioned Judge Lindsay for his re-
moval, claiming in her petition that at
the time she made the request she pos
sessed a very vague idea of what she
was doing. To this statement she added
that the issues and profits of the props
erty were needed for the support of her.
self and several minor children, and that
De could manage the property herself.
Attorney G. e. Oles appeared for Hall
and NJ. d. Kelly for Ms. Provost. The
battle for Halls removal was a hard
one, but Hall was given the. decision,
Judge Lindsay stating that in view of
the fact that Mrs. Provost had requested
his appointment, he would not revoke
the order.
From that time until a short time ago
matters We're allowed to run along in
the even tenor of their way. Finally
the case was brought to the attention of
Judge Harvey and another attempt
made by the widow to dislodge Hall. In
her petition to the new Judge she al
legged that Hall was mismanaging the
estate. The petition was heard about
week ago and the issue taken under
advisement.
Hall was ordered to appear in court
on Saturday next at o'clock and show
cause why his letters should not be re-
VOked,

WILTON 70 SUICIDE.
CALMLY PLANNED THE DEED.
Long Standing Illness Causes a Tenn
porary Mental Derangement-Whil
the Husband Sleeps She Slowly
strangles in Clothes Closet-Dead
When Discovered.

Despondent because she could not Sc
cure relief from continued illness,
brought about by cancer Of the stomach,
Mrs. Elizabeth l.. Wilton committed sui
eide In tragic manner at her home in
Centerville yesterday afternoon. Mrs.
Wilton was the wife of John NJ. Wilton.
Wilton was the wife Of John M. Wilton,
lived at al Missoula avenue She was
the mother of four children, the eldest
of whom is 8 years.
Mrs. Wilton went about her destruc-
ton in peculiar manner and succeeded
in keeping her family in the dark as TO
her intentions, IL she had contemplated
suicide any length of time. Securing a
piece of rope, she retired to a clothes
closet, and, placing one end of the rope
around a hook, fastened the other end,
with a slip moose, about her neck. The
woman then dropped to the floor, hold
ing her limbs doubled at the knees. Her
knees We're only a few inches from the
floor, and she maintained a very awk-
ward position while the rope was slowly
doing it's deadly work.
Mr.. Wilton returned from his work
yesterday morning, he being employed
on the night shift, and found his wife in
the usual good frame of mind. The hus-
band retired at 10 o'clock and arose at
five. After dressing he called his wife.
Receiving no response, Mr.. Wilton asked
Hilda johnson, the servant. where Mrs.
Wilton had gone. Being Informed that
She had gone into a clothes closet
los h,yf l,n r,,1 Mns fovo
opened the door and discovered that his
wife was dead.
The husband was crazed for mos
ment and rushed into the street, calling
for help. Mrs. O'Brien and her daugh-
ter, who live next door, accompanied
Mr.. Wilton to the sT.e of the dead
woman. They cut the body down, and
after removing it to an adjoining room,
summoned medical aid. The physician
pronounced life extinct.
Mrs. Wilton was 80 years of age and
had been resident Of Butte for NUNS
Der of years. She had the respect and
friendship of all who knew her, and her
fortitude during her long-standing ILL
ness was frequently spoken of by her
acquaintance.
Coroner Johnson will hold an inquest
today in Richards undertaking rooms.

Fines-Shoemaker Has Trouble
Three Women, Four Vags and Lad
Get Justice From His Honor.

Employe against employee occupied
the attention Of Judge Boyle during
yesterday afternoons session Of the po-
lice court, and the wind up proved that
the employe with the petticoats was, in
he opinion Of the court. three laps ahead
OF the one who wore pantaloons.
The trouble arose over a merry old
jag. The jag was carried by John Diet
ing and Chas. Stinf1y, two cooks of the
Inofnton hotel, share and share alike.
When they had roamed about the city
IN circle, for sometime, their wires
got crossed, and the knights of the test
ing spoon attempted to gain an entrance
to the room Of two house girls who are
also drawing pay from Manager Miller.
Boyle did not doubt the stories of the
cooks, but thought the girls made the
best impression. The cooks claimed to
nave made mistake and supposed they
were climbing into their own windows.
When asked why they entered a room
through window, one replied, I'VE al
ways go in that way when we are tip
sy, it is safer" A fine of $25 was i'm
posed on each.
Even the usually peaceful shoemaker
had his inning with the city's magis-
trate. Julius Gessel, who mends soles
at No. 31S East Park street, appeared
against Pat Denahey, Louis Groosen
and James Dolan The three We're
charged with assault. Their version of
the affair sounded. to the judge. like

extra ten dollars worth this month in
order to catch up.
Gill Tracey, that noble young lad, who
refused to permit officer Louchtin to ar
rest his mother but who only objected
with his mouth in loud and boisterous
manner, was checked off for a fifteen
dollar, fee.

EXTRA sHERIFF's DEPUTIES

County Attorney Breen has given the
county commissioners an opinion in the
matter of granting the sheriff few ex-
ira deputies. He advises the board to
grant the sheriff's request and to main
tain it until such time as the citizens Of
the county see fit to attack the legality
OF the appointments. In rendering the
opinion the county attorney said:
Il fully agree with the sheriff, that un-
less lie is allowed the extra help re-
quested, it will cause great delay in
transacting the business of the courts
With three departments i'll operation the
present force is not sufficient to sum-
mon jurors and witnesses and attend to

them

next SIX months while the courts are at

So far this month, six cases of small
pox and seven of yarioloid have been
reported which makes total OF Ii
cases of smallpox nature.
A remarkable feature, however,
about all the Davenport cases

MRS. LoI HAIoHT is FINED.

Davenport shopnfter is Given Lenieni
Treatment.
Mrs. Loi Haight. of Davenport,
whose shopliftiug operations among
the department stores created such a
sensation upon their discovery a
i short time ago, was let off by JUS
tice Finger yesterday with nominal
ine. For the theft of about $40
worth of property she was fined $50
and costs. a total of $66.55. This
course was taken at the instance of
County Attorney julius fischer. who
thought it advisable to make the pen
atty as light as possible on account
of the kleptomaniac tendency of Mrs.
aaight. The stolen goods which
we're identified were returned to their
owners, while the remainder of the
assortment was left with Mrs. Haight.
Mrs. Haight was not present in the
court room when the case was dis
posed of.
