TEN STRUGGLING SOULS.
Five of Them Petition the Courts
to Make Them Free.

Suits for divorce rolled into the dis
trict court yesterday by wholesale, and
five new cases were dOcketed for trial.
Joseph B. Libby is much agrieved
man because his wife Minnie will not
live where he wants her to. He states
in his complaint they were married in
Minneapolis in 1887. and afterwards
lived at Duluth until May. 1889. Work
being scarce in the Zenith city. Joseph
packed his grip and started to try his
luck further west. He found Montana
much to his liking, and there pitched
his tent. He got good work and good
wages, and sent for his wife to join
him, but Minnie preferred to remain in
the city OF the cliff dweilers, and would
not go. Joseph then came back to Mini
neapolis and again sent for his spouse,
but she would not bulge an inch. JO-
seph therefore thinks he is entitled to a
decree on the ground of desertion.
G Fred Page is another husband who
seeks to get rid of his better half. This
is the second attempt. Six weeks ago
he had a suit in court against his pres
ent wife, Mary, but it was knocked out.
His plea then was adultery. Mr.. Page
now returns the attack with charge of
bigamy. He tells the court. in his
complaint, that he and his wife were
married in this city in June, 1854. He
has now discovered that his wife was at
that time married woman. He claims
she was welded to one William A. Rice
at Eau Claire, Wis, i'll September, 1881.
Rice he finds to he still III the land
of the living, and as no divorce was
ever registered between those two. he
asks the court to annul his pretended
marriage, and let him 60 forth free
man.
Tie plea of Ida Mcdowell is some
thing out of the regular groove. She
tells tile court she married her present
husband; George. in the early part of
1890. Her married venture did not
prove to be lucky one. George devel-
Oped many bad qualities, and in October
of the year following committed a
forgery. For this he was tried and
convicted and sentenced to term at
the state reformatory. lie yet remains
an inmate of that institution. Ida asks
for divorce under the statute. AS she
considers her husbands conviction
brings great disgrace to the name of
Mcdowell, she also asks to be allowed
to resume her maiden name OF Ida NJ.
Wyant.
Then comes Elevine Davidson who
was married to Christian Davidson nine
years ago. Their married life. she says,
has not been path OF roses by any
means and more particularly the past
two years. During that period Mrs.
Davidson alleges Christian has done
little but drink. When in his cups he
becomes violently abusive and she has
spent many days In bed owing TO this
iIItreatment at various times.
Mary j. l.. Shearman claims that her
husband, Herbert Shearman, a veteri-
nary surgeon, has violated his marriage
vows OH many occasions and she wishes
to 20 it alone hereafter.

STORY OF AN ALLEY.
What the City Is Trying to Do for
Heavy Traffic.


Yesterday for the fourth time within
a year commission began to figure on
the proceedings connected with the at
tempt to make the alley leading to the
proposed Minneapolis & st. Louis
freight depot wide enough for the traffic
that will pass through it. Three COM
missions have worked on this problem.
and three times all proceedings have
been abandoned by the city council.
Emerson Cole is chairman of the com
mission that began work yesterday, and
he hopes that this body will be able to
settle the problem.
1t is quite an important question, al
though it concerns an alley. The alley
III question lies between Washington
avenue and Third street and extends
from the Minneapolis d St. Louis and
the Great Northern tracks south to
Third avenue north. At present the
alley is only sixteen feet wide. AS soon
as the bridges are all built and the
tracks put in where they belong and the
freight depOts completed, this alley will
become an outlet for the freight depots
there. The city wants to make it forty
feet wide by taking twelve feet from
the lots bordering on each side. The
railroad companies will bear $1,000 of
the expense entailed by the widening.
None of the commissions that have
been dealing with the subject have
been able TO make the valuation of the
property so to be taken satisfactory to
the city council. Some of the awards
have aggregated $4,000. more than the
city is willing to stand. 1t is the hope
of the present commission to get the
cost down to about $4,000. There is
question as to whether the city can
assess the cost of widening this alley
on the surrounding property as public
improvement. The commission will
wait until it can hear from the city at
torney Oh this point before proceeding
further.

crowds of good Republicans in attend
ance upon the convention. He waited
until the convention crowds had all
gone, for it would never DO to arrest a
saloonkeeper for supplying liquid
refreshment to staunch Repub-
lican. Three of the complaints
filed against the saloonkeepcrs recite
that the saloons were open Sunday,
June y. The other four gre for offenses
said to have been committed June y.
Mr.. Young could have secured his evi
dence much more easily the Sunday pre-
viops to the 18th, but he was probably
acting under orders.
All OF the saloon men pleaded not
guilty when arraigned yesterday. It's
not likely that these cases will be ap-
pealed. as all the points astute attorneys
have been able to raise have been
passed upon by the supreme court.
Some of those arralgned yesterday have
already made application for renewal
of their licenses. This action may
affect their chances. 1t is rumored that
the crusaders have again taken up their
work only to be more active than ever.
1t is said that warrant is out for some
one connected with the West hotel on
the same charge of Sunday opening.

BIG CROPS IN KANSAS.
Scarcity Of Help to Gather the
Harvest.

TOPEKA, Kan., July kansas farm
ers are having great trouble in securing
sufficient hands to harvest the enor-
nous crop of wheat in the state, most
of which Is now ready for cutting.
There is an alarming scarcity OF farm
hards, and the farmers are Offering
high wages to secure sufficient help.
They offer fIom So to s. day with
board, wages which lave never been
known to prevail in the state before.
Last years wheat crop was 81, ,O55, 900
bushels. and the yield this year will
probably exceed that Of any previous
year in the history of the state. In the
central and northern portions of the
state at least 10000 farm hands can find
employment at wages ranging from 80
to So day with board during the pres
ent harvest.
The oat crop, too. promises a very
large yield. and the corn crop. the acre
age of which exceeds any previous year,
will probably exceed any former yield,
providing, of course, that no genera;
disaster Overtakes it before harvest
time. Conservative estimates place the
total yield in the neighborhood of 2OO,-
100000 bushels.
