Buffalo Bills Divorce Plea.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Nov 22.-Colonel
w. F. Cody f"Buffalo Bill'') has filed
in the district court at Sheridan an
amended petition in his application for
divorce from Louisa Cody, reiterating
the charges of unwomanly and unwife-
ly conduct contained in his original
petition, and again charging his wife
with attempting to poison him. Mrs.
Cody is also charged with declaring
that the colonel was the direct cause
of the death of their daughter, Arta,
in refusing to listen to a reconcilia.
tion.
Buffalo Bill further charges that at
one time, while entertaining distin-
guished foreigners at his North Platte
ranch, his wife was clad in unbecom-
ing clothing and used indecent lang
uage.

tion," she declared. "The living voice
has more influence on the hearts OF
people than any other agency" she
said, "and school boards are too slow
to learn that this part of the child =
education should receive as much at
tention as art, music and the sciences
The voice is mans chief means OF
communication, why, then, should 1t
not be trained?"
The lady's address constituted the
strongest plea for oral expression ever
heard in the city. Judging from the
impression it made upon her auditors
it is safe to predict that it will be re-
sultant Of great benefit.
Arithmetic and Grammar.
Professor Young went further into
the subject of arithmetic Memory
and imagery in arithmetical opera
tions were first discussed. He divil
ed his topic into three heads -imple-
ments of arithmetic, practical neces-
sary operations and disciplinary oper-
ations.
"The Implements he said, "are
the processes of the fundamental
principles addition, subtraction, null
tiplication and division-and these i'm
plements are to be mastered by men,
orizing." The speaker urged the
teachers to insist upon accuracy, and
showed the necessity of disciplinary
work in order that power, culture and
utility may be obtained.
Professor Young then continued his
discussion of grammar, begun last
Monday. He distributed among the
teachers sample outline of the work,
up to and including the fourth grade
of the Butte schools, explaining the
work as outlined. The object, he said,
was to acquire expression, increase
the vocabulary and enable the pupil
to express himself in written language
and receive spiritual and intellectual
uplifting.

BENBoW MAKES A FLIGHT
FoRTY-FIvE MINUTES.
Makes Safe Landing When He Dis
covers That for Lack Of Fuel
Motor Is Useless.

| st. Louis, Nov. 22.-After remaining
in the air As minutes, only for brief
period of which it was propelled by
it's own power, the Montana Meteor,
! the airship designed and constructed
| by Thomas Benbow of Columbus,
Mont, was brought safely to the
1 ground in an open field three miles
southeast of the Worlds fair aero
drome.
| The airship was navigated by the in
! ventor, who stated to representative
of the Associated Press after the
flight that he considered it very sue
cessful in the light of the accident
that happened to his machinery. A
leak in the gasoline tank allowed all
the fluid to escape and rendered his
motor useless shortly after he had
started the flight.
To Much Gas.
Benbow was also handicapped by
having too much gas in his balloon,
and it was necessary for him to allow
some hydrogen to escape during the
flight. For that reason he did not
start the motor until he had drifted
with the wind for nearly mile.
During the brief time that the mo-
tor was working the airship made
headway against the wind and an
swered it's rudder perfectly.
Shortly after Benbow started his
motor he found that the gasoline had
become exhausted, and allowed the
Meteor to drift with the wind until
he found a landing place.
According to Benbow he will make
another flight tomorrow, as the dam
age in the gasoline tank can be re-
paired in few minutes. u

Resolution Is Adopted.


The resolutions committee reported
to the convention that it recommend
ed the adoption of the measure with
the exception of the clause following
the first Whereas" A socialist dele
gate arose and asked why the nartic-
ular section be expurgated. This
vituperation and the battle was not
over until an hour and Is minutes
after the regular time for adjourn
ment. By an overwhelming vote the
delegates then passed the resolution
as recommended by the committee
and expressed their confidence in John
Mitchell and Samuel Gompers.
Max Hayes, who championed the So
cialistic doctrine in speech, SO
aroused the galleries that they
cheered him for several minutes. This
caused President Gompers to threaten
to clear the hall Of all visitors is DEM
onstrations of the kind were repeated.
The debate became warmer and some
OF the best speeches of the session
were made during its course. Crimi-
nations and recriminations flew thick
and fast
Mitchell Is Heard.
Feeling ran so high that John Mitch
ell rose in the convention and stated
that unless Delegate Victor Breger of
Milwaukee was able to prove his
statement that he (MitchelD had been
a traitor to the workingmen he must
stand before the eyes of all present
convicted liar. Then motion was
made to suspend the rules and allow
President Gompers and John Mitchell
an opportunity to defend themselves.
The trouble arose over a printed
slip distributed to some delegates
which charged Mr.. Gompers and Mr..
Mitchell with dining with President
Eliot of Harvard. The article in ques-
tion said the place at which the meal
was eaten was an unfair house and
that President Eliot was the man who
called the "scab'' a hero. It bore the
heading, "Are They Traitors?"
Reply Of Gompers.
The reply of President Gompers was
the most bitter and impassioned and
the feeling among the delegates was
tense. He admitted the attendance
upon the dinner, but denied every in
ference drawn therefrom and declared
that so long as he was connected with
the labor movement he would fight
against politics being mixed with un-
ionism.
Mr.. Mitchell made quiet address,
The Billings gazette. [volume] (Billings, Mont.) 1896-1919, 1904-11-25

but was accorded the closest atten
ton. He was loudly applauded when
he said that he defied any man to
point to any act Of his which might be
interpreted as agaisnt the interests
of the workingmen.
The fight between the Chicago Fed.
GRAFTON of Labor and the national or
ganization, brought about by the ques.
ton Of trade autonomy,( was parti.
ally settled by permitting Delegate
William Schardt, president of the Chi.
cago Federation of Labor, to have a
seat and voice in the present conven-
ton and directing President Gompers
to go to Chicago within 80 days and
endeavor to settle the dispute existing
between the two big organizations. .
If this could not be affected it was
the sense of the convention that the
Chicago body be permanently suspend
ed from the American Federation of
Labor.
Another action of far-reaching i'm
pOrtance was that taken on the report
OF q special committee on the demand
by the Typographical union for an
eight-hour day. The convention voted
unanimously to indorse the demand
and pledged itself to aid the move
ment fnancilly by levying an assess
ment on each of the millions of mem
bers if such course should become
necessary. The Typographical union
has set January, 1906, as the time
when the eight-hour day will be de-
manded by their organization.
Niagara Falls, N. Y, and Fort
Worth, Texas, invited the delegates to
hold their next annual session in the
respective cities.
The question, of Japanese exclusion
was introduced and caused consider
able discussion to emanate from the
western sections. The convention vot-
ed unanimously in favor of the exclu-
sion measure as introduced, which
provides for the exclusion of Japanese
and Koreans on lines similar to the
exclusion of Chinese under the exist
ing law

The convention also went on record

the question, that labor might know
where to place it's support.

Delegates.

San Francisco, Nov 22.-From the
sational yesterdays session of the
American Federation of Labor was the
most exciting one yet held During
the heated debate which followed the
unexpected interjection of the ques.
tion of socialism before the delegates,
Samuel GOmpers and John Mitchell
were charged with being traitors to
the cause of labor. These charges
and the bitter socialistic debate which
followed were caused by the introduc-

Delegate Victor Berger of Milwaukee:

TEACHERS HOLD FINAL SESSION
THIS AFTERNOON.
Il ENDS WITH A LECTURE
History, Geography and School Libra
ries Among Matters Discussed
at Morning Meeting.

Professor Dove opened this morn.
ing's session of the teachers insti.
tute with a, resumption of his discus.
sion OF history. He paid particular at
tention to American history as a
branch of the history of the world
and explained why recent European
history has so Influenced that Of this
nation. The principal point sought to
be made was to show why and in what
way one nation is Influenced by the
acts of another.
The speaker showed that the discov-
cry of America had been due to a. de-
sire for greater geographical knowl-
edge, greater commercial acticity and
scientific research. The part played
by religion in the movement was also
dwelt upon. The settlement of Amer
lea and the causes leading up to the
formation of the different colonies
and settlements were sketched, and
the inter-colonial wars came in for
some attention, but only incidentally,
as the speaker considered them all,
except the French and Indian wars.
simply quarrels between England and
France. The war of independence and
TIE resulting political freedom of the
nation formed the climax of the ad.
dress.
Course Of Study.
Professor Young continued his talk
on a course, with geography as the
branch discussed. He divided the
grades into three groups-the first
consisting of the terms and concepts !;
the second, the geographic, and the
third the causes. A suggestive course
OF study was distributed among the
teachers and the speaker took it up.
grade by grade, explaining the man
ner in which each subject should be
presented.
A similar course in arithmetic was
also distributed by him. He urged
the primary teachers to begin with
the concrete and then to take up the
abstract, returning to the concrete
for the last. The second grade work,
he said, should be presented object
lively in spoken words, in written
words and in figures. Great stress
was laid upon the necessity of having
the pupils memorize all tables and to
drill them thoroughly in the funda-
mental principles.
School Libraries.
School libraries was the theme dis
cussed by Professor Snyder. He said
they were one of the most important
elements in the school of today. A
few dollars well expended in the pur-
chanse of books meant much. The
teacher should be the principal agent
in the selection of the books. The
latter should be those that aroused
interest in history and biography.
Theory and Practice was the SUBJ
ject taken up by Miss Owen. The
usual discussion in which about all
participated followed 1t became un-
usually spirited and in consequence
was productive of much good. Ideas
and suggestions were freely exchang-
ed and comparison of them led to
the formation of many new conclu-
sions by those taking part in the de-
bate.
Closes Toady.
The institute closes with this after
moons session. Some of the subjects
of discussion will be omitted and
il others the talks will be curtailed in
order that time may be afforded for
the lecture by Professor Young.

yesterday afternoon was afforded by
Miss Owen, who spoke on the subject
of teaching literature by means of vo-

voice is the agent Of the soul, saying
that the infection of the voice is a
true representative of the thoughts OF
the mind. "The modulation of the
voice reveals the truth as to assimila-

The only unpleasant occurrence dur

Miss Barry received quite lasting
memento of the occasion in the shape
of badly burned hand. She was
awakened by an exclamation from one
of the tourists near and pushing aside
her portiere found the opposite berth
mass of flames. Seeing that instan-
taneous action was necessary as II
strong draft was passing through the
sleeper, she did not stop to think of
the danger but snatched the portierres
from the berths and soon several men
having come to her assistance, sue
ceeded in extinguishing the flames
The accident occurred west of Albu-

for the burnt hand was obtainable for
ten hours, except cold cream. Miss
Barry says it did not prove at all effica
