A Young Woman Seeks Divorce
From a PenuriOus Husband.


AMSTERDAM, N. Y, Jan. 24.-An in
teresting divorce case is in progress in
this city. The plaintiff was formerly
the beautiful Miss Hattie Williamson.
She married Francis Vedder, of Fonda,
aged seventy. who is worth over $780,
O0O The union was soon broken up by
Vedder driving the young wife out of
doors. She related her experience in
court as follows: Il married the de-
fendant May "a, 1884, when seventeen
years of age. The defendant told me
that he was in his fortieth year when L
married him. We lived together until
Oct. l, 1884, when he told me to leave
his house. | had been married only
two weeks when he began to find fault
about my asking him to provide, He
got a dozen eggs and left four in
a pan and locked the others in his book
case. He got pound of raisins and.
locked them up. He got lard and for
bade me to use butter to warm up po-
tatoes, so had to use lard. When l
asked him for any money be would tell
me to go and earn 1t. One day wanted
some meat. He said: Don't get over
a pound ] went out to see what the
butcher had. He had lamb chops. l
asked him how much they were. He
said 20 cents a pound. | told him l
would have to ask Mr.. Vedder if / could
get any. l did ask him and he told me
that he could not pay that price; that
a piece of stewing beef was good
enough. He would not allow washing
to be done oftener than once in four
weeks. Twice took it home and once
he did his own washing"

SUPERIOR, Wis.,, Jan. 24.-About two
weeks ago the secretary OF the interior,
upon receipt of complaints that timber
was being cut by lumbermen without
contracts. on the Cloquet Indian reser-
vation, ordered the operations discon-
tinued at snce. The order was not
obeyed, and several numbering firms
still continued cutting and removing
timber from allotments recently made
to the Indians. 1t was learned here to-
day by the firm of HutchinS u Brennan,
who represent the government and the
Indians, that threats of violence are
being freely indulged in by the
lumbermen towards all who in
terfere in their operations. The In
dianS are helpless, being Outnumbered
by the trespassers, and are alleged to
keep at respectful distance from their
land. Over 100000 feet of logs have
been cut by the trespassing lumbermen,
and Hutchins & Brennan to-day re-
ceived emphatic orders from the depart
ment of the interior to prevent the re-
moval of the same, and to cause the ar
rest of all who attempt such removal.
Information having been received this
evening to the effect that several log
ging firms are now at work cutting and
removing logs, warrants were issued 1or
their arrest. and will be served tO-lDor-
row morning. 1t is expected that re-
slstance will be offered when the ar
rests are attempted. and the department.

executive with statement that if it was
intended as an enactment then this
committee is a commission, and ac-
cOrdiDg to the organic act it is the duty
of the governor to make the appoint.
ments and this usurpatiOn is disap-
proved of. But on the other hand if it is
merely joint committee as stated in
the letter, then the governors approval
is not required to enforce its provisions.
In the latter case the Legislature is as
sured of the hearty cooperation of the
executive department. House bills
providing for the extension of
the time for paying taxes of 1888
and allowing counties to issue bonds to
purchase seed wheat, passed the cOun-
Gil, and awaited the governors sigma
ture. GlaspelPs bill repeating the gross
earnings law was the drawing card of
the days programme. Its author and
Hughes entertained a large audience
for several hours in fighting over it's
provisions. Glaspell won the cOntest'
finally, convincing even his stubborn
opponent. as not a vote was recorded
against the repeal. Walsh presented
railroad taxation bill, modelled
on the gross earnings basis, pro-
viding the roads want it
that way, and will promise to pay taxes
so improved and make no fuss about it.

day forbids the selling of those articles

Senators Will Take the Omnibus
Bill in Hand To day.
WASHINGTON. Jan 24.-Sens TOR Platt
has called special meeting OF the
senate conlmitte on territories
TO be held tomorrow morning 10
take under consideration the house
amendments to the bill for
the admission of South Dakota.
The committee will have three points to
consider: First. whether the question
of division shall be submitted to the
people of Dakota; second, whether
North Dakota and New Mexico shall be
on an equality with the other terrific
ries, or be required. as they are under
the house amendment, to come to
congress again for admission, and
third, whether New Mexico shall be ad
mitted with the other territories or
ruled out. There is strong sentiment
among the Republican members of the
committee against submitting the ques
ton of admission to the people of North
and South Dakota. They claim that
this would be virtually submitting the
question to the people of North Da-
kota, for it is known that
the people of South Dakota favor
it. They would probably ne
willing to agree to the admission of
North Dakota, Washington and Montana
as compromise; but only on condition
that North Dakota be placed on an equal
ity with the other territories in the mat
ter of admission. There is a strong feel
ing against the admission of New Mex
ice. The Republican members of the
committee have had several confer
ences and have given informal hearings
to number of Dakota people and
others. 1t is not likely there will he
any division in the Republican ranks
when the vote on these propositions are
taken. If the consideration of the bill
is not concluded tomorrow, it will be
resumed at the regular meeting of the
