A Notable Divorce Case.

Lancaster, Wis, Feb. 15-Nelson
Dewey, who served from 1S4S to 1852 as
the first governor of the state of Wis
consin, has brought suit in the Grant
county circuit court for divorce from his
wife, Catherine Dewey, to whom he WAS
married thirty.six years. For nearly
fifteen years they have been separated,
put have never been legally divorced.
Desertion is the ground upon which the
divorce is asked. Mrs. Dewey, it is un-
derstood, will contest the suit, claiming
that Governor Dewey hopes by securing
divorce to defraud her of her right to
property which she thinks he has hidden
away from her knowledge.
The trial, which will take
place during the term OF the
court which opens tomorrow, may con-
tain interesting as well as sensational
Developments. Mrs. Dewey was q
daughter of the late Judge Damn, who
was very prominent man iIf the early
days of Wisconsin settlement. Her
mother, Mrs. Dunn, committed suicide
by drowning in the Wisconsin river
seven years ago, because, as 1t was sup
posed, her money had all been lost in
the wreck of Governor Dewey's fortunes.
Mrs. Dewey afterwards became insane,
and was confined in the asylum at Mad
ison for time. She is now living in
Milwaukee. George Dewey still lives a,
Cassville. He is 72 years old, and Mrs
Dewey Is SIS. 1t is. whispered that his
| reason for divorce is that he desires tt
marry again.

Rumor. ora Doon Extension


A Luverne correspondent of the st.
Paul Pioneer Press writes that the in
yasion of Omaha territory by the Bur.
lington road has stirred the former up,
and that the resultant activity prom
ises to be OF great benefit to Rock coun-
ty. Among the rumors prevalent at
LuveIne is one that the Omaha will ex-
tend its Rock Rapids branch Luyerne
to Doonl to Sioux City. This would
give through connections via WORTH
ington and IJuverne from ST. Paul 80
Sioux City. To give credence to this
rumor the Omaha has lately been trans
porting large quantities of construction
material to Luverne. Another flying
rumor is that the Heron Lake branch
of the Omaha will be extended to Lu-
verne. Parties interested IN the quarries
at the Mounds are organizing local
company to build a branch from the
Mounds to Luverne. This is for the
purpose of securing better transporta-
tion for sto1e to st. Paul and other
points. Ii the Rock Rapids branch ex-
tension of the Omaha is made, 1t gives
the Omaha complete line Of it's own
| to Sioux City.

Our dispatches indicate that the re-
publican majority in the United States
senate has reached o decided conclusion
relative to presidential nominations to
places formerly occupied by suspended
officials. In caucus the republican sena-
tors have declared that they Will not
confirm such nominations, when the
president or any of his cabinet officers
decline to furnish the evidence upon
which officials were suspended. The
right Of the senate to this information
is SO clearly established by law and pre-
cedent and is SO strongly sustained
by the ablest statesmen of the past and

that charges preferred are not well
