Unable to Account for the Disaster. or

Unable to determine with any definiteness
the real cause for the recent explosion on

chanical and chemical test under the direc.
ton of an expert board to establish the
condition of the metal Of the burst gun.
Secretary Moody. acting on this recon-

Southern Neglect Of Asparagus.

IT'S strange how few soushern truckers
grow asparagus although 1t rs a perfectly
simple process, said F. B. Young OF Co
lumbus, Ga. This may be aatrtbuted to
lack Of taste for this vegetable. but many
OF the natives prefer collard cor rutabagas,
home consumption. Once an asparagus bed
is properly set out the plants viii grow
without renewing for a neriod Of twenty
years But reckon they don't like 1t, and
that = Uufficient reason for them.'

Wanted THE MONEY
TO PAY FOR WEDDING

A clever forger was arrested at
Dermitt just after he had passed n
check on the Palace dry goods store.
He was just leaving the place when
he was placed under arrest, having
been paid $29 by the cashier.
The police had been looking for the
man for a couple of days, but he
covered his steps in the smoothest
kind Of manner and it was only by
the luckiest turn he was arrested at
all. He is alleged to have left a
trail of forged checks, among them
being Kemp & Hebert for SIS, James
Durkin s26. NJ Kornfeldt s25.
He was taken to the police station
and gave the name of c. II. Newman.
He also goes under the name of ]. *.
C. Mckay. In one of his pockets
was found a lot OF blank checks of
the Old National bank, one of which
was filled out for $50 in favor of II.
c. Miller and signed with the name
of Mitchell, Lewis & Staver in red
ink with a rubber stamp.
At the station the pictures In the
local rogues' gallery were gone
through and Newman was recognized
from the resemblance to one of the
pictures taken last spring of man
who was given a sentence of three
months for passing draft on Archie
Ash. the pawnbroker for 1915.
At that time Ash failed to prose-
cute the man and at the end of three

CLARK'S
DAUGHTER IS SUED

NEW YORK, Dec. Mrs. Mary
c. Culver, daughter of United States
Senator Clark of Montana, and plain
tiff in a suit for absolute divorce from
her husband, DR. Everett Mallory Cul-
yer, has been made a defendant in a
suit for $500 900 damages for the alleged
alienation of her husbands affections
by Mrs. Elizabeth r. Nlasto.
The man i'll the case, Count" Scion
j. Nlasto. an importer and editor oil
the Greek periodical Atlantis, is a
well known figure in society, courtly
in manner and a master of all the mod
ern tongues.
Residing here the greater part of the
year, he maintains a residence in Ath-
ems and has aspirations to membership
in the Greek National assembly. He
has friends and enemies, too, in the
local Greek colony.
Mrs. Nlasto is an Englshwoman. She
married Mr.. Viasto on November "a,
1875, at the Little Church Around the
Corner, and they have son, Con-
stantine, now in his twenty
year. She and her husband lived apart
for some years. She says their trou-
bles are co-incident with his social
popularity.
In her complaint Mrs. Niasto charges
that Mrs, Culver "wilmlly intending to
injure the plaintiff, entced her hus-
bond to live separate and apart from
her. The specific acts ON which the
charges are based were incidents of q
European trip from which Mrs. Culvei
has just returned and which comedies
it is claimed, with sojourn abroa(
made by Vlasto. which ended q wsel

MEANS WATERLOO
TO ONE OF Them

HELENA, Mont, Dec. 1.-The ex-
traordinary session of the Montana leg
islature, which convened today in pur-
suance of the call issued three weeks
ago by Governor Toole, is likely to be
the arena for a gladitorial combat as
fierce and as intensely interesting as
the session several years ago which
witnessed the titanic struggle between
Copper King William A. Clarke and
Marcus Daily for seat in the United
States senate. In the present instance
the results are far more momentous
than in the case of the struggle for
the senatorship. The future welfare
and prosperity of one entire and por-
tions of three other states may be said
to depend upon the action of the ses-
sion. Arrayed against one another in
the gigantic fight is F. Augustus Heinze
of the Montana Ore Purchasing COM
pany, backed by the Independent cop
per men of three states, and the Stand
ard Oil company, as represented by
the Amalgamated Copper company.
| The aim of the session is to pass a
law whereby mining cases may be TAX
{ en- from one court to another when
the Judge in the initial court is shown
to be prejudiced. Other legislation OF
like character has also been promised.
A so-called fair trial bill of the char
acter now proposed, was passed by
the last legislature, but was decided by
the supreme court to be unconstitu-
tional on technical grounds.
The present situation is due to a
coup executed by f. Augustus Heinze
president of the United Copper com
pany and arch enemy OF the Anal
gamated interests. One of his lieuten-
l ants. a Young man named McGinnis

months he was released. The case
then created much excitement, par
ticularly as the young man bore d
good reputation.
He is an engineer, 81 years of age
and good looking.
Last July, while working on the
Northern Pacific, he found the draft
which was the cause of his downfall.
Instead of making any attempt to find
the owner, he struck up an acquaint-
ance with Archie Ash and then pass
ed the draft on him. He received his
three months sentence July s.
His arrest this time has nipped In
the bud what is evidently a well-laid
plan to swindle business men of the
city Wholesale. He rs sucn a poor
penman the forgeries were detected
Immediately by the bank officials. He
Is an open countenanced sort of an
individual and withal looks to be per-
fectly honest.
He Is very taciturn as ne stands In
his cell at the police station and re-
fuses to discuss the matter of the
forgeries at all.
The most pathetic feature of the
string of forgeries which eliminated
In his arrest today is the fact that
there is woman in the case, said to
be Miss Emma Schultz of this city,
They We're to have been married this
afternoon Yesterday Newman tool
out a marriage license and gave the
residence of both as Spokane.

BERLIN. Dec. Emperor Will
liam has changed his voice, modulat-
ing it so as to reduce the pressure
on the vocal chords. He now speaks
in somewhat lower pitch. his utter
ances resonating against the cavities
of the mouth or using a musical
phrase, against the mask. He has not
yet trained himself fully and he may
take the services of a teacher so that
he can apply correctly the method
taught in voice culture His throat
specialists have explained to him the
theory of voice production. which he
has practiced with considerable sue
cess.
The emperors advisers have ac-
cepted the theory of Dr. II. Holbrook
Curtis of New York, which has been
made familiar to the German ply
sicians by Professor ii. Krause, the
throat specialist, who attended the
late Emperor Frederick. Professor
Xrause believes that several throat
diseases can be obviated, and in some
instances cured, by using the voice
scientifically.
The official announcement that the
emperor had begun course of voice
culture was contained in the follow
ing bulletin issued at noon:
NEW PALACE, Potsdam, Dec. l.
| The surgical wound on the left vocal
chord has been SCARED over since
| November 10. His majesty, the em-
peror and king will still require care
full use of his voice for consider
able time. until the scar has become
sufficiently firm.
His majesty is now undergoing
massage treatment of the larynx
along with voice exercises. His ma
jesty probably will recover the entire
use OF his voice within few weeks.
This was signed Won Leuthold

Custer and Donavan Are
to Be Released
] from Jail

On Friday morning Dell Custer and
George Donovan, implicated in the at
fair of Rachel Adler, will be released
from the county Jail, their six months
sentences having expired. Undoubt-
eddy they will be met by friends in
the musicians union who have stood
by them since the commencement OF
their troubles.
Custer has not been from under
the roof since the 2Sth of last Febru-
airy and has seen daylight through the
bars ever since, save only when he
appeared for arraignment or sentence
in the superior court room. Donovan
entered the jail at the same time, but
had few weeks out ON bail, being able
to take in the festivities connected
with the visit of President Roosevelt
last May. Both are thinner than when
they entered the care of the jailer,
but are in good health, stating that the
only change in physical condition is
but the inevitable result of confne-
ment. They praise the Jail manage
ment, Donovan will appear with his
bald spot lacking, having obtained in
Jail an ethcacious treatment for the
renewal of hair on the top of his head
Both men expect to get positions
with musical organizations. During
their incarceration they have assidu-
otisly INDUCED in Confidential prac-
tice," as they call lingering and mouth
ing their pieces without giving out any
notes. From . to 8 each evening they
have had regular practice, making the
jail ring with their music. 1t has been
welcome to the most of the men, but
some have placed it in the same cate
CORY with cornet practice in well
filed fiat. Both are planning to sc
to the coast for their positions, though
Donovan may accept an offer to 60 &c
his old hme in Indiana and work fol
his brother, at the same time taking
the leadership Of newly ORGANIZED
band in his home city.

was the owner of few shares of the
Boston 4 Montana Copper company.
He secured decision from District
Judge Clancy restraining the Boston
G. Montana company from paying divl-
dends to the Amalgamated on the
ground that it is contrary to the laws
of Montana for one corporation to own
stock in another corporation. Further
more, on application, he secured a
decision from Judge Clancy in which
the latter said he might at any time
appoint a receiver for the Boston 4
Montana. BY these decisions the Anal
gamated was badly hampered, and, the
"fair trial" bill being nullifed by the
supreme court, it could not secure the
transfer of the matter to another court.
