Famous Divorce Case to Come Up.

DUBUQUE, Ia, Feb. 24.-One of the
most famous divorce cases in the history
of Iowa will come up for hearing at El-
dora, county seat of Hardin County,
tomorrow. It is counterpart of the
famous Flack divorce suit in
New York. Colonel E. 8. Ellis
worth is prominent politician and
millionaire residing at Iowa Falls. Last
December it is stated he entered suit for
divorce, alleging inadelity on the part
of his wife. Instead of the case being
heard in open court in regular order it
was advanced on the docket and tried
in the privacy of a hotel
present except Judge Hidman; the
plaintiff, and his attorneys. The wife
was then. it is said, visiting in Color
ado. Not only was she divorced in this
star chamber, but she was also
deprived of the custody Of
her children and any share
whatever in her husbands vast prop
erty. There is said to be nothing what
ever in the court records to show the
character of the testimony upon which
the divorce was granted. Mrs. Ellis.
worth now sues to have the case
re opened. In her petition she
makes some startling disclosures,
and alleged she knew nothing whatever
of her husbands g suit until served with
notice of the decree, and also that her
husband attempted to force her to O
confession of criminality.
