HELENA HAS A
 HARD FIGHT ON
Ladies of Civic and Moral League Oi Helena Leading Crusade Against the Saloons in Phillips County, and
 the AntiS Are Also Working Hard.

Helena, Aug. 10.-What will un- doubtedly prove to be one of the bit terest political fights in the state is just opening in Phillips county. The question at stake is whether Or not Helena and this county shall go dry
 and it will be threshed out royalty before election day.
 Arrayed on one side are the Civic
 and Moral League of Helena, the Anti-Saloon League and anti-saioon organizations throughout the county,
 On the other side stand the liquor dispensers, their adherents and num- bers who believe that prohibition will injure the city and the district. The Prohibitionists are aided in Helena by the ladies of the Civic and Moral League. These ladies, coming from the highest social circles and the up the work with a deNrmination to succeed and they have done much towards promoting their case. Indeed it is admitted that it will be the Civic and Moral League that will lead the flight So far, they have done almost all the actual work Speakers have been brought here from several states, they have erected tent and have held open air meetings, the surrounding
 country has been flooded with posters, each one containing an argument ill favor of prohibition and every peti- Ition that has been circulated among the citizens has been in the hands of the Civic and Moral League.
 The first defeat caI1e when they ap-
 pealed to the board of election com-
 missioners to appoint three anti-saloon
 men rather than the three that were
 selected by the county central com
 mittee and their appeal was refused.
 Far from being disheartened. how
 ever, they have publicly announced
 that they intend to carry the fight to
 the last trench and that the battle
 of the ballots here will be the hardest
 fought in the state

THOUGHT WIFE
 DIVORCED HIM
And Now Lieutenant of Cavalry Is Being Court-Martialed Because He Answered That He Was "Single" When Questioned by the Depart. ment.

New York, Aug. 10.-Because he al- swered single" when the War De- partment asked him if he was mar rled, Second Lieutenant Guy H. Wy man, Eleventh United States Cavalry, is being court-martialed on Governors Island. 1t is the first case of this kind to be tried in the army, and, according to Lieutenant Wyman, who is one of the most popular officers in the crack Eleventh Cavalry, he answered single because he thought the girl he married in Tennessee in 1905 had divorced him. If found guilty. Lieutenant Wyman may be dismissed. On June 30 every fcers in the United States army to answer this question in writing:
 Are you married or single?" And it is because, in June, 1907, Lieuten- ant Wyman wrote back single" that he is now facing a court-martial.
 Lieutenant Wyman admits that in May, JSU0, lie IldIIleu MISS lLduClld Chambers of Huntsville, Tenn. He says that the marriage proved an un- happy one, and that he and his wife separated several months later, with the understanding, according to Wy man, that she should sue him for di vorce. It now transpires that Mrs. Wy man did nothing of the sort, until a few months ago, and that when Wy. man wrote back single" to Secre tary of War Taft, in June, 1907, he was still the lawful husband of Mrs. Lanella Chambers Wyman of Hunts vile, Tenn. Mrs. Wyman got her di vorce in the spring of this year. Lieu tenant Wyman says that he was told that the divorce had been granted much earlier. and that when he re- ported himself single he believed it. The matter was called to the atten- tion of the War Department by let ter from the former Mrs. Wyman

Los Angeles, Cal. Au. 10.-AleXan- der Garland, who claims to have been secretary of the Peruvian legation at Washington. and who, with Mrs. Lou ise Garland, was arrested Saturday on "a charge of disturbing the peace, was released on bail yesterday, furnished by Antonio Lozano, Mexican consul at Los Angeles
 The troubles of the Garlands began Thursday over some letters said to have been received by Mrs. Garland from men prominent in Washington public life. When taken to the Cen tral police station Mrs. Garland gave $50 cash bail for herself, but refused to assist her husband, who remained in jail over night. There being no Peruvian representative at Los An- eeles, Senor Lozano furnished bail for the young man.
 Garland was reticent as to the true
 reason for the difficulties between himself and wife. He said:
 T shall say nothing that might n- jure her reputation in any way or cause her pain. She is a niece of At- torney General Bonaparte, and we'll known in the East. I was secretary of the Peruvian lgation in Washing ton until May. a year ago, when I was suspended on account of an altercation with Col. Charles A. Edwards, in which I was stabbed
