DEATH OF INF ANT
MYSTERIOUS
BABY PURCHASED IN BUTTE is
FOUND BURIED BESIDE RIVER
AT LIVINGSTON.

Butte. Jan e8.-(Speciai)-Som
days ago little boy who was fish
ing near an island about mile below
Livingston. had his attention attract
cd by the actions of his dog. which
were out of the ordinary. He investi-
gated and found that the pup had
dug up the body of a baby. The boy
told his story tn the police and the
investigation which followed has been
thorough.
To-day Chief Of Police Donalluc of
Livingston is in the city making an
Investigation which may result. il is
said, in the charge of murder pre-
fcrred against Mrs. George Thompson
who is now held in the Livingston
jail.
As the story Is told. early last Oc-
tober Mrs. Thompson took a child
less than four months old from this
city To Livingston. She entered a
store in that city and two clerks in
the store saw that it was wrapped in
a silk shirt. The woman bought some
clothing for the infant and soon after
she was seen crossing the bridge over
the Yellowstone, just south of the
city to an island. with the baby in
her arms.
She was later. it is alleged. seen to
return without the baby. Mrs. Thomp-
son does not deny having taken the
child from Butte and further acknowl-
edges that she bought clothes for II in
the Livingston store. but absolutely
denies any knowledge OF how the child
came to its death.
That Mrs. Thompson may be telling
the truth as To buying the child Is
believed from the fact that n person
visiting the place where the child was
procured was offered a baby for s25.
The authorities are making a thor
ough investigation into the trading of
babies and Humane Officer Gilligan
declares that II there Is any violations
of law going on in this city as to buy
ing and selling of babies he will fer
ret out the guilty parties and en-
deavor to bring about the infliction
upon them of the severest penalty the
law provides.

The increase was granted after month S

OF 100000 a year to the railroads. The
increase is effective from this morning.
Canadian trainnaen are also affected. the
employees of the Canadian Northern being
represented in the conference. The en-
ployes of this road are in the peculiar posi-
ton Of getting an increase for which they
had not asked.
When the move for an increase was be-
gun the Canadian Northern employees re-
fused to join. fearing defeat of tha plan.
The management of the road. however. CO.

to the increase.

"DlvINE ORDER" Defined
Former. Student Picks Flaw in
Mrs. Stetson' Statement.

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: Mrs Stetson's statement published
in yours of the 9th has rather strange
omission, in that it makes no mention of
the doctrine she taught me and all her stu
dents. She instructed us it was one Of the
cardinal Qf not the cardinaD doctrines of
what she SO mistakenly asserted to be
Christian Science. This doctrine was called
by her Divine ORDER and badly stated Is
that in the real universe there exists a
divine order and in this order is found
first, God. next Mrs. Eddy and next Mrs.
Stetson It. of course follows. and those
who could not draw the deduction had It
drawn for them. that whatsoever Mrs.
Stetson taught. whether you could under
stand it OF not. was the truth, and any
doubt of it's correctness indicated that
your mind was being clouded by mys-
tericus something which was working
against your well being. If you accepted
this doctrine you. Of course. refused to
heed your own reasonable perceptions or
criticisms Of the lady's actions or teach
inss and rejected such as hypnotism, and
after you had done this for thousand
times your mind began to do II automatic
ally, and then having committed mental
suicide you could not thereafter see any
thing in this lady but wisdom. power
goodness. seership. etc. Your mind became
weak and open 70 suggestions. and you
lived mentally only by sufferance Of your
teacher
do not intend personal criticism I am
relating facts but it seems to me that she
quite believed this quintessence of priest
craft and had gone SO far that she made
Nietzsche's Beyond Good and Evil seem
like infants food. She had, perhaps, little
difficulty in convincing herself she was
right in this doctrine. as II brought her the
hind devotion of her students, their pa
th.tic self .obliteration and their goods and
chattels.
It's effect on many of them seemed to
