MRS. BARTON WANTS a DlV0CE

There are two men in the penitentiary
at Deer Lodge who will find themselves
wifeless when their terms expire and nei-
Their of them has been married a great
while.
A few days ago Hattie Reek concluded
to cut loose from her convict husband,
who is serving six years for forgery and
today Lydia T. Barton decided to give
Horace A. Barton his liberty so far as
she is concerned.
Both couples were united in marriage
in 1898, the Reeks in Butte and the Bar
tons in Anaconda. Each Of the plain
tiffs is seeking release from the marriage
vow on the ground that her husband has
been convicted of forgery.
Mrs. Barton states in her complaint
that in June of last year her husband
was convicted of robbing the United
States mails and sent to prison for two
years. Barton was an employee of the
postoffice in Butte and was caught rifling
letters, by one of the inspectors
He pleaded guilty to the charge and
Judge Knowles sent him to Deer Lodge
for the period stated.

preston that she is divorced from Otis

district court are a criterion, by which

was after the marriage ceremony was
performed.

Hour Dav

A meeting of the Mill & Smeltermen's
union, was held in Miners union hall.
last night for the purpose of considering
the elght-hour question, in connection
with shelters and machine shop en-
ployes. 1t was decided to apply the short
day proposition to all members of the

Butte & Boston companies was issued.

day to all of their employees. If the terms
are not complied with another meeting

their demand for the shorter day for all
hands On the final vote there was,
it is said, only one dissenting voice.
Persons in position to know say that
there are only few men employed at

shorter day has not been extended. 1t

GREAT REJOICING IN HELENA
eople There Glad East Helena smelter
Resumes Work-Wool Crop in
Great Falls Good.

M. M. Potter, the travelling representa-
tive of the Chicago Milwaukee & st. Pau1
railroad, came into Butte yesterday. Dur
ing Mr. Potter's recent trip into the
northern part of the state he visited
Great Falls and Helena. He said, that
the people of Helena are highly elated
over the news that the smelter of East
Helena is to start up at once. "They
have been waiting patiently for the
smelter to resume" said Mr.. Potter, land
the ore from the adjoining county will
now be shipped to that place, instead of
TO Colorado as expected in the event Of
the smelter remaining closed"
Mr.. Potter states that the wool crops
which have been taken into Great Falls
are of the finest quality this year. The
railroad representative predicts a good
business in that line

Though the ass brayeth loud of a truth
1t sayeth little. That might be applied
to the Miner. our illustrious suburban
contemporary. in reference to the inane
and innocuous potpouri Of verbiage of
which it delivered itself in this morning

That the Miner did bray loud is m
dubitable, and that 1t said little or moth
ing of any substance is equally incon-
trovertible.
To put 1t in nut shell, the Miner sim
ply brayed, but then the Miner often does,
that.
The Miner lays great stress upon the
fact that the Inter Mountain did not
have the report Of the inquest over the
remains Of big Eva" Smith. The Miner
should deal fair. as it knows the report
was too late for an afternoon paper.
The Inter Mountain might ask why the
Miner did not have the news of the
president having abandoned his trip to
the northwest. The cases are about anal

LABOR COMMITTEE WON OUT
Manager Wilson Of the Butte Will
Now Work His Engineers But
Eight Hours

A lively tilt, which gave promise Of
spreading into more serious affair, oc>
Cured this morning between Manager
Wilson Of the Butte hotel and a commit
tee from the Engineers union. TIE
committee was appointed several days
ago by the union. with instructions to
see that the eight-hour law Is properly
enforced by hotels in their engine rooms.
Mr.. Wilson was found in the office ct
the hotel. and the representatives of the
union approached him on the subject.
A request was made that, unless another
man was put in the engine room, the
time for running the engine be Short
ened.
This" said the chairman, 1--WE MUS
insist on"
Mr.. Wilson claimed that his engineers
had only been working about nine hours
a day, and that during an hour of tina /
time. although they had the engine in
charge. they were eating their meals
He said it would be an imposition to
compel him to hire an extra man for
an additional hour day, and that he
did not propose to do it.
Now, Mr.. Wilson," said one of the
committee, you have been permitting
this thing to hang fire long enough, and
We won't be buffaloed. These men must
not work in that engine room longer
than eight hours. and if you want to
test the strength of the union, all right.
We are prepared"
It was evident that the manager of
the hotel was getting a shade warm,
and he continued:
II don't want to buffalo you, neither
do I want you or your union to threaten
me. 1 ask for nothing but that which
is reasonable. and tell you the hotel
cannot afford another man in the boiler
room. for the expense of that depart
ment is double now what it was three
years ago, when one man did the work.
Now. according to your claims, it re-
quires three men to do the same work.
I'll put in an electric plant or shut the
elevator down before I'll submit to this
outrage. There is a limit to all things,
and the limit has been reached here
After a great deal of further discus
sion, in which the labor question was
talked over. the matter was settled and
the committee left for the McDermott
hotel to have an interview with Man.
ager Taylor of that house.
Manager Wilson concluded to start
the elevator an hour later hereafter in
the Butte hotel. and in this way it will
not be necessary to have the engineer
in the boiler room until o'clock, instead
Of as heretofore. Mr.. Wilson told the
committee that he would be glad to pay
one of the present engineers in his eni-
play for the extra hours work during
the day, but the committee said it had
no authority to recommend such u
course,

HER DYING WORDS WERE 81 HAVE
LOST MY LIFE BUT SAVED MY soul. -

| The letter is signed by the members
of the hospital board.
| Mrs. Clark. from all accounts, never
! talked of the past, and seemed to de.
sire a secluded life. She secured room
and board with Mrs. Hayden No l2c
North Idaho street. Mrs. Hayden knew
practically nothing of Mrs. Clark, ex-
cept that she claimed to be a nurse, an |
apparently was a good woman. After
several unsuccessful attempts to secure
employment, the stranger got a position
as nurse in the ST. Paul hospital, ana
all went well until last Friday, when
she was taken sick. and then another
link was added to the chain of myster,
surrounding her life.
She requested the nurse in attendance
to call at her room at Mrs. Haydens
home and secure all papers and letters
which she had there. The articles were
handed to Mrs. Clark a short time later
and she was noticed tearing them into
bits. This having been completed the
woman ordered the scraps placed in the
stove and burned.
Hardly had Mrs. Clark completed the
task of destroying all evidence OF
her identity when her condition became
/ alarming. The Rev. Albritton was sent
for and fastened to the sick bed. TIL.
minister found the patient deep in
prayer, and scarcely had she opened her
eyes and uttered the words of so muc,,
significance when death came.
The Rev. Albritton, when asked re-
garding Mrs. Clark, stated that he knew
very little of the woman, indeed. He
said Mrs. Clark came to Butte few
months ago from the east During the
revival meetings of the Rev. French
E. Oliver in this city he noticed her on
several occasions. The Rev. Oliver be-
came acquainted with her. and it was
not long until that noted evangelist hai
converted Mrs. Clark to the faith. She
Joined the Methodist church. and from
that time forward seemed to be a
changed woman. Although she did not
talk concerning herself. she appeared
much happier. She attended services
regularly and was interested in the
work.
The poor woman said the Rev.
Albritton had doubtless been through
a great deal before coming to Butte
That was evident by her every action.
Only on one occasion did she mention
any Of her relatives in my hearing and
then she spoke Of a sister. I am I'M
able to recall, at this time, the place
where Mrs. Clark said her sister lived"
The Ladies' Aid society and the Ep-
worth League. hearing of the death Of
Mrs. Clark, took hold Of the funeral
and raised nearly $500 to pay the ex-
penses.
