would not weigh 80 pounds, aud that the pro-
posed bill was unjust to farmers. The vote
was close, but the speaker declared third
reading refused. Mr.. Horton called for
rising vote but the chair ruled the motion
not in order. After the result of the vote
had been announced Mr.. johnson of Bridge
water, moved a reconsideration of the vote
and the motion prevailed. Mr.. Miller OF

of Hinesburgh stated that as a

CHARGED WITH CONTEMPT.
The Hutton Divorce Case Is Up
A gain.

The HUI tton divorce matter is being
revived somewhat, and yesterday the
young man was up before Judge
Hooker for contempt. The allegations
against him reveal peculiar condition
of affairs. 1t appears that on June 20
last Adnah Hutton began an action for
divorce against her husband, aud,
pending that action, she made appli-
cation for temporary alimony. and
attorneys fees. The charge alleged was
adultery. Through the intercession of
friends Mr.. and Mrs. Hutton became
reunited upon promises by the former
that he would "be faithful to his mar
riage VOWS" Mrs. Hatton made an
affidavit of dismissal. and the same was
handed to her attorney, so Mr.. Hutton
said to GLOBE reporter last evening,
but through mistake. probably, Mr..
Place carried it in his pocket for week
or so after she had made manifest her
intentions in the matter. Mr.. Place
subsequently applied to the court for
attorneys fees up to date, and asked
for the action to be dismissed.
The order for fees was granted and
served upon Mr.. Hutton, who chose to
ignore it. Yesterday morning when
motion to adjudge him guilty of con-
tempt came up. the young gentleman
was not on hand and had to be sent for,
and he appeared at about noon with
smiling face and totally unconscious
of the matter charged against him.
The court deferred the matter until
4 o'clock in the afternoon, at which
time the matter came up and COM
of money paid by Mr.. Hutton for at
torney's fees could not be learned as
Mr.. Hutton was 10th to say anything
upon the subject. lie remarked to
GLOBE reporter, however, that he was
very sorry that ''any of this divorce
business should come up in the news
papers, for he considered it entirely un-
necessary.
John Larson VS.. David E. Jones, was
case that was up before Judge Hooker
yesterday morning. This case has been
up before. and is in reference to an at
tachment proceedings in which James
A. Pagan is an interested party. 1t is
now claimed by Jones. the defendant,
that Larson agreed to take nothing for
his services as carpenter until after a
loan had been negotiated OH the prop
erty. AS result of the argument an
adjustment will probably be arrived at.
There are more cases than one, inyolv-
ing in the aggregate something like $751;
600 in wOrkmen'S wages.
The case of F. a. Booth, the assignee
of the Cuttrel Barrel company, was on
hand in the district court yesterday
morning with motion that, if granted,
would permit him to all the entire plant
of the inSolyent mandatory to Philip
w Herzog for$f0.G00. The sale will be
vigorously opposed by the creditors.
The matter was continued, to be heard
next week. I.
John f. Byers and Wayland B. Augir
have sued Margaret A. and Adolphus
Bradford for s6,0tU damages for the
non-perfo OF a contract.
The first grea. work OF tie new firm
of Rea, Miller & Terrence was done
yesterday morning when Judge Rea
paraIyzed the complaint Of P. J. E..
Clementson against the Evening Trib-
une for S25. 0OG- damages in the libel suit

successful demurrer.

The Girl Who Knows Every thing.

Ladies' Home journal.
Naturally, it isn't you or your friend.
but you certainly know her, and just as
certainly you dislike her. When you
dislike people there is one thing you
should always do. and that is, look we'll
at their faults and make up your mind
that you are not going to fall INTO them.
This girl, who is quite too general to
be pleasant, is the girl who, having
learned something yesterday, knows
everything. She makes herself obnox-
ious by Haunting recently acquired
knowledge, concluding, always, that
the people who are quiet are ignorant;
she has no hesitancy in contradicting
disagreeabie by giving her opinion on
the last pronunciations, forgetting that
custom makes many things correct Of
which the dictionary has no mention.
She is more than certain as to dates:
she can tell you exactly what you ought
to do, and she fails herself to see that
she is living example of how disagree
able one person can be. Young men
dread her, old ones have the utmost con-
tempt for her; she losses her head. SAYS
she doesn't care for the opinion of men.
Well, she is losing her womanliness
when she feels that way. Every girl
ought to care for the opinions of men.
She has her father to look up TO, her
brothers to be an inspiration to, and
some day, please God, she ought to
marry one and make him happy for life.
The girl who knows everything is sell
