THE CODY DIVORCE SUIT.
"BuiRaIo Bill" Goes Before Notary Pub
lie and Makes . Deposition-The
Poisoning Episode.

Denver, Col, March 24.-Col. Will
liam F. Cody, Buffalo BILL" made o
deposition before notary in this city
yesterday in the action for divorce
which he has begun in Big Horn coun-
ty, Wyo. Col. Cody will sail for Europe
shortly and will be absent from the
country when his suit is tried. In the
proceedings yesterday Col. Cody was
INTERCEPTED by his own attorney and
was subjected to cross-examination by
counsel for Mrs. Cody.
Mrs. Cody tried to poison me three
years ago." the colonel testified. she
had frequently threatened to do 1t.
We were visiting in Rochester, N. Y,
during the holidays of 1900 and the day
after Christmas was ILL., supposed
the turkey and plum pudding did not
agree with me. She said she would
fix me up. She pretended to give me
medicine. 1t was poison. 1t almost
finished me, for was unconscious for
some time. | think 1t must have been
an overdose, for 1t made me vom1t ana
l suppose this saved my life"
The poisoning episode has been ex-
planned by Mrs. Cody's friends, who
state that Col. Cody's illness was due
to overindulgence in stimulants and
that she administered to him rem
edy which she had given him for years
under similar circumstances. On this
occasion, they say, she gave him an
overdose and 1t made him Ill. but not
seriously 80.
In his testimony yesterday Col. Cody
related many instances of his wife's
having Inundated him at his former
home" In North Platte by her conduct
towards his guests. Mrs. Cody's
counsel inquired into the character Of
the guests to whom she objected and
into their conduct while at her home.
The purpose of the inquiry was to
show that the men whom he brought
to the house were fast and riotous
set and behaved in such manner that
she had 3 right to object to them.

A MOB'S VENGEANCE.
Five Negroes at St. Charles, Ark.
Shot to Death.
TROUBLE BEGAN OVER SMALL NATTER
rhis Makes Mine Negroes VINO Have Bees
Killed within Week Near u. Charles
on Account of Racial Troubles-naoro
Lynehings Likely.

Dewitt, Ark, March 26.-Five ne
groes, who had been arrested % 70
suit Of race troubles at st. Charles,
were taken from the guards BY q
crowd Of men and shot to death. The
victims were: Jim Smith. Charley
Smith, Mac Baldwin, Abe Bailey
| and Garrett Flood. This makes
nine negroes that have been
killed within a week near St
Charles on account Of racial troubles.
A few days ago difficulty occurred over
trivial matter at st. Charles be-
tween a white man Of the name OF
Searcy and two negroes, Henry and
Walker Griffin. On Monday the Grif-
! fins met Searcy and his brother In
a store at st. Charles and the quarrel
was renewed. One Of the negroes,
without warning, struck both of the
Searcy brothrs over the head with a
table leg, rendering them unconscious
and fracturing their skulls. One OF
them may die. Deputy Sheriff James
Kirkpatrick attempted to arrest the
negro and he was knocked down. Many
negroes then gathered 'and defed the
officers, declaring that no white man
could arrest them.
Their demonstrations aroused the
fears of the citizens Of st. Charles and
they telephoned to Dewitt for posse
to protect the town. p. W. Douglass,
deputy sheriff, went out with five men
Wednesday morning. Constable L. G..
McNeeley went forward with posse
to capture the Grifiins. The constable
met three negroes, Randall Flood. VIII
Baldwin and VIII Madison. in the road.
He inquired of them If they knew
where the Griffins were and one OF
them replied that they did, but would
tell no white man." adding an oath.
The negroes then attempted to draw
pistols, but the posse fired, killing all
three Of them.
Thursday 16 men left Dewitt for the
scene of the trouble. Large crowds
gathered III .ITUm INUo, GtHOi anu
Clarendon. During the day, while the
sheriff's posse was searching for the
Griffin negroes, they were fired on by
a negro, Aaron Sinton, from ambush.
Three of the posse were hit, but the
shot used were small and no serious
damage resulted. The posse returned
the fire and Sinton was shot down and
killed.
Five other negroes. Jim Smith,
Charles Smith. Mac Baldwin, Abe
Bailey and Garrett Flood. who were
the negroes that had defled the Off
GERS, were arrested. Thursday night
a crowd took them away from the
guards and shot them to death.
1t was reported late yesterday that
the Griffin boys have been captured.
II so, 1t probably means that they will
be killed. Everything at st. Charles
at this time is quiet, but the town is
heavily guarded.

SENATOR BURROWS TRIAL.



ton by the Defense Overruled.
st. Louis, March 24.-In the trial
of Senator Burton, Of Kansas, yester-
day, the time of the court was occu-
pied to a large extent with details
and no points of particular interest in
the case were developed. District At
torney Dyer read letter purporting
to have been written to the local at
torney Of the Rialto company by SEN
ator Burton in which the latter is al
legged to have stated that he had made
inquiries at the post ONCE regarding
complaints against the Rialto COM
pany and assured the latter that no
final action would be taken until he,
Burton, had been first notified and
had arranged for a full hearing before
the department. "In return" the let
ter states, II trust arrangements will
be made for my first months pay"
Arguments were made by counsel
for the defense and the district attor-
neys over motion by the defense to
have the sixth count Of the indictment
quashed on the ground that the pro-
ceeds of the check for $500 were
claimed by the defense to have been
received by Senator Burton in Wash
ington, thus abrogating the jurisdic-
ton of the court. The motion was
overruled.

LACK OF FAMILY LIFE.

Men who separate themselves from
their families pay a very high price
for success. Some Of the very great
est failures in life in America in re
cent years have been failures Of men
whose lives and careers are blazOned
abroad as those Of great, successful
men. Their sons are noted for their
wOrthlessness, degenerate sons Of
worthy sires. These young men are
united to make a living for them
selves. and they are untitled to spend
the money which their fathers piled
up with Infinite pains and labors. In
these cases II is extremely doubtful
If the worthless sons are to be blam-
ed: the fathers, the great, successful
men, are primarily at fault because,
though they made money and a name,
they did not give any time or pains
or thought at all to the most import
ant work in the world, which is the
rearing OF honorable and useful men.

THE LIFE OF A BOOK.

interviewed by the Book Monthly
Mr.. A. NJ. s. Methuen admits that
an enormous amount Of rubbish is
published - but holds that because it
has no likelihood of living it does
little harm There are few people. he
tells US, who realize how short the
life Of an average book is and how
far shorter it is getting. Fifteen
years ago you could count on its ex-
istence for two or three years. Now
three books out of four are almost
dead as mutton in three months. You
may sell a few copies afterward, but
the sale that remunerates the author
and publisher is over before you
know where you are" Taken alto
gether, Mr.. Methuen considers pub
fishing the NEST difficult business in
the world" adding that with cOmDe-
titiOn il is getting more difficult"
The publisher need not look for
wealth; but among his cOmpensatiOns
is the interest Of his calIing-"the lit
erary interest, which is grateful and
agreeable under all circumstances"
