incident at which grieved much
at the time, not only for the loss
of the notes as regarded myself,
but it distressed me not little
to think any of Gov. Findley's let

disaster unless pcrchance some
fortunate water man may have
the good luck to discover it as he
descends the river.
We moved on this mood for
some time, and determined not
to risk much by petty thefts on
the road, reserving all our skill
and courage for greater exploits
more productive of gain and at
the same time as free from dan
ger as enterprises of so daring a
nature permitted. No opportu.

COAT OF TAR FOR WOMAN.
Also With Liberal Application OF
Feathers,

La Crosse, Wis, July S.-The good
people of the village Of Hokah have
been shocked beyond endurance by
what they term immoral conduct
upon the part of two victims. At -
o. 'ock last night a mob gathered
az tarred and feathered William
Be ocbe and Mrs. Ruby Samples. Both
We're residents of the village.
For about three weeks people have
heard of their conduct and a few days
ago notified them to leave town. They
refused to go, and last night mob
of 30 armed men, farmers, appeared
at the home of the woman; the door
was broken down and the victims
dragged into the street. Here they
were stripped of their clothing before
a crowd of more than 100 irate farm
ers and were covered with tar and
feathers.
Not satisfied with this humiliation,
the farmers forced Beebe and the wo-
man to run the gauntlet through a
jeerng mob to the outskirts of the
village, pelted with sticks and stones.
They escaped in the darkness and
have not been seen since.

TO CONFER WITH NOTED JEWS
Roosevelt Wishes to Discuss the Peti.
ton to Russia.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, July S.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Secretary Hay
concluded their conference at a late
hour last night. The secretary left
Sycamore Hin shortly after 8 O'Clock
this morning.
1t is understood that the exact
method of procedure relative to the
B'nai Birth petition to the British
goVernme mt has not been determined.
The petition itself has not been
completed and it can be said that
the president deeply regrets the de-
lay in the placing of the document
in his hands. Next week, probably
on Tuesday, the president expects to
have a conference at Sycamore hill
with three of the Jewish citizens who
have promoted the idea of forward
ing a petition to the Russian govern
ment. On that day Simon Wolf of
Washington and Oscar Straus and
Leon M. Levy of New York will take
luncheon with the president 1t is
expected that the petition, which has
been carefully revised hy its authors,
will be handed to the president at
that time. In any event, the subject
in all it's phases will be considered
thoroughly.

Committee Has Reported It to the
House Of Commons.

London, July sam the regular
clauses of the Irish land bill being
adopted the house of commons today
took up the newly proposed clauses,
on which the government showed the
smallest majority of the whole de-
bate. Secretary Wyndham proposed
appropriating $25,OOO annually out of
the development grant to idemnify
Trinity college, Dublin, for any loss
OF income arising from the sale of
lands owned by the college. The new
clause was vigorously opposed by the
nationaIists, but after long debate
it was adopted by government ma
jority OF 63.
Mr.. Wyndham pleaded that the
house complete the committee stage
of the bill this evening and all these
clauses We're then withdrawn.
Mr.. Wyndham then moved an
amendment to schedule No. 1, pro-
viding for the payment to the land
lords of uniform bonus of IL per
cent. This was agreed to. The bill,
as amended, then passed through the
committee stage and was reported
to the house amid cheers.

Thought She Was Free Because Her
Husband Was.
CONVICTED OF A SERIOUS CRIME
Jessie Majors Has Three Husbands
Living and Warrant Is Out For
Her Arrest on the Charge of Big.
amy-Her First Husband Supplied
Her With Money to Maintain Her..

Missoula, July 9.-August %, 1897,
John P. Fitzgerald, now under sheriff
of this county, then a justice of the
peace, united in marriage William R.
Verley and Jessie Majors, then IS
years and 4 months of age. Now it
is charged that the young woman has
since been twice married, and that
all three of her husbands are living,
and a warrant is out for her arrest
on a charge of bigamy.
The young woman and Verley and
her sister, Leona, and Emil Brabant
were married at the same time, there
being double wedding.
"Complaint was lodged and VAR
rant issued in the police court this
afternoon, charging Jessie L. Wilson
with bigamy. The story which the
details furnished shows that the wo-
man in the case has had her share of
troubles, and that if she is arrested
her cup of woe may be filled to over
flowing because Of her ignorance of
the law. Under the name of Jessie
l.. Majors, the woman was married
at the age of Is to John Verley. About
four years ago Verley was sent up
from Anaconda for criminal assault
upon his wife's sister.
He got out of prison a few weeks
ago and found that his wife had in
meantime married another man. The
court records here show that a mar
riage license was granted to Bert
Brace Wilson and Jessie L. Majors,
,on March 9 Of last year, and the we'd
ding ceremony followed. It seems,
from the claims made by the wom-
ans sister, who lives here, that the
young woman had supposed that the
sending of Verley to prison was it.
self equivalent to divorce, and she
had taken her maiden name and sup
posed she was legally free to marry
again.
Verley was married to Jessie Ma
jors in Belt, in 1897. He is a con-
tractor, owns several teams, and is
hauling lumber at the sawmill camps
much of the time.
His wife, whose parents are said
to reside at Great Falls, came to
Missoula to reside while he was en-
ployed at Elliston. He remained at
Elliston, attending to his work, and
she was in the habit of going to that
place to visit him. He says he sent
her money each month, his remit
tances being $45 or $50 each time. At
one time he furnished her money to
make a trip to California.
with wonderful tact she has kept
him from learning of her dual life,
and he knew nothing of her later
marriage, it is alleged"
