FATE OF A YELLOW DOG.
Verdict of Spaniels and Terriers That
He Committed Suicide.

The carcass of monstrous yellow
dog was observed beside the car tracks
On West Park street near Was lington
last night. Students of natural history
have contempt for yellow dogs, and
the general belief is that a dog of this
color has neither sense nor value. Tho
whole world is his enemy, including
politicians of the ultra party stripe.
who manifest their loyalty by swearing
they would as soon vote for a yellow
dog as vote for the fellow on the OPP
nosite ticket. 1t is doubtful if even
the Humane society bestoWs much SYM
pathy on this despiscd animal. So the
verdict of the spaniels and terriers who
held az inquest over the remains of the
yellow dog before he was hau,ed away
hy the scavanger. given in sundry shifts
and barks, was that the dog got des-
pendent and didn't cave a cuss whether
he lived in companionship With other
animals closer to the bone than he
could ever obtain: so deliberat cly got in
the way of an electric car was run over
and killed. No blame was attached to
the street car company. No action will
lie brought, because the dog had no
owner. He was only a yellow dog.

IS THE CHARGE PREFERRED
BY ISAAC BERKLA AGAINST
HIS WIFE,.
WAS ACCOMPANIED BY
A WAD OF MONEY.
She Was Arrested at Alton, ILL.,, But
Was Released on Dispatch From
Butte.

Isaac Berkla of No. 412 East Park
street is out a wife and $1,000, but as
the parting occurred last April he has
almost recovered from it's effects. This
morning Mr.. Berkla called at the office
of the county attorney and asked what
he could do towards Furnishing his wife.
he said the money was represented by
certificate of deposit made out in the
name of his wife and himself, but one
day while he was absent from home she
had secured the. cash on it and eIoped
with another man.
"Then the money belonged to her as
much as it did to YOU" answered the
county attorney, and your remedy is
in a civil suit
Can 1 not have her arrested for
adultery" asked Mr. Berkla.
You can prosecute a charge of that
nature at the place where she is now
located, but not here. How old is your
wife,"
"She is 49,"
And your age?''
II am 55.'
1T took me some time to locate her."
continued Berkla, "but l finally did it.
She is now in Alton, ILL.,"
On January 20 Berkla received a tele-
gram from f. Vobrocht. chief of police
at Alton, stating that Mrs. Berk1a was
under arrest there and if he wanted her
he could go and get her. Later on some
one sent a message from Butte to the
chief at Alton requesting her release
from custody and she was turned loose.
In relating the circumstances of lAc
case to the county attorney, Berkla did
not say who had sent the message to
the Alton chief.

IN JUSTICE COURTS,
COTE RETIRED FOR 40 DAYS.
DINEEN FINED $40 FOR CRU
ELTY TO ANIMALS.

Although T. f. Cote the ore hauler,
escaped punishment for his intended
hold-up joke on Hickman James Dick
son, the episode has resulted in his re-
tirement from rubic duty for at least 40
days. In Justice Taylor's court at South
Butte yesterday afternoon Cote was
found guilty of having assaulted Joseph
Swayze last August and sentenced to 40
days in the county Jail. Cote would not
have been located SO quickly had it not
been for the hold-up business. 1t was
known that somebody was wanted for
the SWayZe assault, but for some reason
the identity of the one could not be de-
termined. Constable Zimmerman knew
his man by sight. One morning while
Cote was in the county Jail awaiting
hearing in the hold-up case it occurred
to the constable that Cote might be the
man he wanted for assaultng SWayze
and he paid him a visit Cote did not
care to See Zimmerman, but Zimmerman
wanted to see him and he saw him. Then
1t was all off with Cote. for Zimmerman
recognized him as the one for whom he
had warrant for assault. AS soon as
Cote was released on the hold-up charge
the constable arrested him on the as
sault warrant and the trial yesterday
was the outcome of The case.
