Gar Considering Peace.

st. Petersburg Feb. 1S.-The Asso-
ciated Press learns on exceptional alt
thority that the question OF peace We :
formally considered by Emperor Mich
olas and his ministers at the confer
ence held at Tsarskoe-Selo Thursday
No particulars are obtainable. as be-
fore the discussion began the emperor
e&acted from each one present sol
emn promise not to divulge the slight
est hint of what transpired.
The belief Is. however. that the pos
sible conditions and terms were under
consideration.
1t is suggested in high quarters that
some intimation of terms has reached
the Russian government from Japan,
although it is. certain that it did not
come through the regular diplomatic
channels.
Even in the midst of the excitement
caused by the assassination of Grand
Duke Sergius there has been a notice
able and sudden revival Of peace talk.

Two 1heu,and.Year Clock.

Richard Strut. a son Of Lord Ray
leigh, has invented clock that will
run for two thousand years. The mo-
tive power is a small piece Of gold
leaf. which is electrified by means OF
a very small quantity Of radium salt
The gold leaf bends away from the
metal substance and keeps moving uD-
der this influence until 1t touches the
side of the containing vessel. At the
moment of contact 1t loses its cleo
trical charge and then springs back
again and is again electrified. and the
process is repeated. 1t Is thought that
thoroughly reliable clock could be
made with use Of radium salt for ST.
600.

CODY DIVORCE CASE.
Buffalo Bill and His Wife Both Appear
to Poor Advantage.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Feb. 1S.-Highly
sensational charges were made at the
taking of dispositions in the Cody di'
yorce case, begun here Thursday in
the District Court before Judge r. II.
Scott.
Colonel w. F. Cody was pres ent and
was represented H. A. Ridgley of
Cody, and ]. l. Stotts OF Sheridan.
Mrs. Eliza Cody was not in court but
was represented by Wilcox & Halligan
of North Platte, Nebraska.
The first witness called was Mrs.
John w. Boyer of North Platte. Mrs.
Boyer's husband is employed by Col
onel Cody, and for several years she
was housekeeper at the Cody ranch.
Her evidence was very positive.
Mrs. Boyer stated In reply to Ques-
tioning that Mrs. Cody treated Colonel
Codys guests discourteously when
they called at the ranch, objected to
the management of the houDekeeper
because she fed the men too much,
talked in a violent manner about Col
onel Cody and his alleged sweethearts,
was given to imbibing strong liquors,
became SO drunk that she had to go
to bed, and used exceedingly strong
language.
Mrs. Boyer testified that she saw
Mrs. Cody attempt to poison Colonel
Cody by putting something into his
coffee, and said Mrs. Cody told her
the substance was dragons blood"
On cross examination Mrs. Boyer ad-
mitted that Colonel Cody drank great
deal and was frequently under the in
fuence of liquor at the ranch. She
also admitted that he was intoxicated
on each occasion when Mrs Cody gave
him the drug. When asked II the drug
had not been administered by Mrs.
Cody as a medicine to sober up the
colonel, Mrs. Boyer said she did not
know. She said the colonel felt the
effects of the drug almost Immediately
after 1t was administered, and he was
always very sick man, being COM
pletely helpless after taking the
dragons blood. Mrs. Boyer said that
Mrs Cody told her that she got the
dragons blood from gypsy and that
"she was determined to either rule or
ruin her hush before she would let
him out from under her power"
Among other things the witness said
that Colonel Cody stated on one occa-
sion that the only way to get along
with bis wife was to get drunk and
stay drunk.
Mrs. c. P. Davis Of Cheyenne tes-
titled that she was a seamstress in the
Cody home in 1893: that Mrs. Cody
told her then Of the colonel's infidelity,
and that she cruelty whipped her
daughter Irma with hoIsewhip.
