GRABBED AGE
And Youth Cannot Live Together
The Myers Family.

William Myers, aged seventy-Seven
years, has brought suit against his son,
William Myers Jr., and his wife Katie
tor the recovery of certain property
which was transferred TO them. The
story, as told in the complaint, is sad
one, though it is by no means new. In
December of 1884 lie, the old father,
decided over all his property and real
estate to his son and wife. The son was
TO care and provide for his father and
mother during the rest of their natural
lives. A paper was signed to that eff
feet, but it appears that sighlng paper
had no bearing on the case so
far as William Myers Jr. and wife
were concerned. No sooner was the
property transferred to them than they
commenced 4 system OF ill treatment
and abuse toward the father and
mo.ner. Mrs. Myers Jr., the complaint
alleges, even went so far as to cruelty
beat the aged and decrepit man. The
old couple were not provided for. and
their lives were made burdensome by
the manner in which they were treated
by their children.
HE old man now wants the court to
oblige his son to return him his prop
erty. He says that in June of 1890 his
son executed and delivered 10 the
American Building and Loan associa-
ton mortgage on the property for the
parpoSe of defraudlng his father and
that the company foreclosed. He wants
this foreclosure set aside on the ground
of fraud.

papers he was about to bring against
Health Commissioner Kelley has been
declared off. 1t was intimated by the
health commissioner himself that he did

upon The health commissioner, and
asked him If he had made the state

made certain statements. but they were

Then followed a lot of explanations,
DIR. Kelley, however, maintaining that
the certificate of death presented by
DIR. Lawrence of the cause of Mrs.

The result of the whole matter was
that DIR. Lawrence went away, his honor

A GORGEOUS OPENING.
Such Was the superb Display of
Donaldson & Co.

"a Happy Easter' was one of the
notices that formed graceful back
ground for the resplendcnt scene pre-
sented in the millinery department of
Donald son Il Co. at their annual spring
opening yesterday. The motto was
made Of rarest flowers. being COM
posed of hyacinths. poppies, lilies of
the valley and green foliage. In glanc-
ing over the gorgeous scene presented
yesterday one of the Messrs. Donaldson
said to GLOBE reporter that he thought
il outrivaled any of the former OPEN
ings. I'VE thought" said he, "that
our last years opening could not be
surpassed, butfI really think this is the
most successful affair we have ever on
joyed.
And it undoubtedly was. both in
point OF attendance and superb ap-
polntments. A more brilliant or ami
mated scene than was presented yes
terday and last night could not be i'm
agined. Within there was the radi-
ance reflected from myriad lights on a
5himmering sea of soft and delicate
colOrs, while the perfume of roses per-
meated the air with subtle aroma
Then there was added the bewtching
strains of music from the Third United
States Infantry orchestra stationed over
the elevation on tine second floor. And
especial reference should be made to
the delightful character of the pro-
gramlne diSc0urSed. 1t was composed
of popular numbers in the main, while
classical beauties were not omitted.
1t was all Easter opening, per sc, re-
splendent and gorgeous in all of its ap-
pointments. This was manifested by
the crush, If permissible, of ladies. 1t
really appeared as though the entire
feminine population of Minneapolis had
moved out to do homage to the occasion,
and. as a matter OF fact, it Was almost
impossible tor the most active Argonaut
to tread his way through the bewilder-
ing store. During the afternoon and
evening vast throngs Surged in and out
OF the palatial emporium, which, as be-
fore said, more than Outrivaled the sea-
son OF burgeOning spring.
Everywhere was represented the beau
tiful and tender garniture of the season.
and. this was especially so in the milin-
cry department, which presented all ap-
pearance of blossoming garden of
beautiful buds, and the most rauiant
color.
The windows were especially beauti-
full, presenting the acme of decorative
art. In the corner hiche, at
Sixth and Nicollet, was sta
toned golden-haired girl at
tired in a crimson habit. while lady in
a tailor-made gown Of the exclusive
productions and importations of this
house occupied the background. The
spectacle presented was that OF a parlor,
drawing room and chamber scene, and
Oh all sides were the evidences of the
most Consummate refinement and ele-
gance.
The other windows were more elabor-
ate and elegant, if possible, being filled
with life-slzed figures attired in re-
Splendent gowns and headgear. and to
enhance The beauty there were potted
orchids and ether rare plants. 1t was a
most gorgeous spectacle, ana right roy
ally did the people of Minneapolis do it
justice.

THEosoPHi - AROUSED
At the Charges Preferred 4 q ,inst
Mr., Judge.

NEW YORK, March 21.-The adherents
of theosophy are in commotion over the
action of Col. ii. S. Olcott. the. re cog
nized, leader of the sect. in preferrlng
charges against William q. Judge, the
head OF the American society of "Mis-
use of the names and handwriting of
the Mahatmas or masters aud of teach
ing tcnetS of theosophy not accepted by
tine adopts" In the letter which con-
veyed the news of the accusations, two
alternatives were offered to Mr.. Judge:
First-To retire from all offices held
in the theoSophical society and permit
the publication of a general explana-
ton; and second, to have the charges
investigated by judicial committee,
convened according to the Jules govern
ing the society.
The first alternative Mr.. judge has de-
clined to accept, because he does not
think committee of the society ought
to pass upon doctrinal question which
has hitherto been left to the Individual
to Settle with his own conscience.
~ hese charges are all bOsh, non
sense and rubbish" Mr.. Judge said.
There is not word of truth III them.
L believe in the existence of the per-
fected MahatmaS, but it is ridiculous to
say that l have made use of their
alleged influence in my correspondence.
AS for performing miracles, there are
no such things as miracles. The
charges are fliinSy and foolish, but [ am
very sorry they have been made"

AN OLD AFFAIR.
Suit against the st. Paul & North.
ern Pacific Company.

Suit against the st. Paul & North
ern Pacific Company.
Francis Morrison and others have
brought suit against the st. Paul d
Northern Pacific Railway company for
the payment Of certain sums said to be
due them. The suit involves trans
action which took place before the st.
Paul & Northern Pacific Railway COM
pany was absorbed by the Northern Pa
cIfic Railway company. The plaintiffs
owned certain property in the lumber
district OF the East side, and granted to
the ST. Paul IL Northern Pacific COM
pany a deed of right of way through
their property, the right of way being
used tor spur track.
An agreement was entered into by
which the railway company was, if the
deed of right of way was ever trans
ferred or sold, to pay to the grantors of
the deed one-half of what was realized.
In October, 1884. the same year that
this agreement was made, the railway
company was absorbed by the Northern
Pacific Railway company and trans
ferred to it the deed of right of way.
The consideration of selling out TO the
latter railway company was 40 per cent
of the gross earnings of the line of rail-
way transferred. This, according to
the complaint. aggregated over S615, 900
year. The gross earnings OF the spur
track through the plaintiffs property
amounted to $1,000, and they now sue
to recover one-half of the 40 per cent
of this $1,000 a year from October, 1884,
TO the present time.

FINDS HIMSELF IN COURT

Asking for a Divorce From His

George Dumas Domestic In.
felicities.
There were fearful tales, gruesome
tales and tales of aching hearts told at
the district court yesterday. With the
advent of spring come husbands and
wives asking for chance to begin over
again. all declaring that marriage is a
downright failure. Charles c. Van
Vechten. whose name is guarantee
that he comes of good old Amsterdam
Stock" was the first to ask relief of the
court. He is siXty-siX years of age, and
the woman he took to his well-matured
heart is forty-seven. In spite of his
age he loved fondly, fervidly.
When November of 1892 came around
he found himself still single man. vet
with burning desire to wed some good
woman. At that time he lived in Cam
den, n. y, within whose corporate linz
its there resided widow. the quick half
OF Floyd Locke, demised. Her name
vas Rachel, and it was az Rachel that
She married Van Vechten on the even
ing of Nov. 81 of the year in ques-
ton. In his application for divorce
the old gentleman says that his wife
lived with him about a month before
she began to exhibit temper and make
lite miserable for him. She refused to
cook his food and found fault with
everything he did. She refused to talk
to him for days at a time, and, in fact,
developed into such Shrew that his
heart sank within him whenever he was
obliged to be with her. In January,
just about the time the new year was
born. she ordered him to 90 away:
IL can live without YOU" she said.
There are plenty of men besides YOU"
Then it was decided to separate. and
when she went away she remarked in a
spiteful tone of voice:
People can't say tina poisoned you
as did my first husband.''
All this is alleged in the complaint
Fechten's attorney. 1t is further alleged
be and what married men are wont to
expect Ut the women they marry. She
was out on the streets in all kinds of
weather and at unreasonable hours of
the night. Men called at the house and
made life miserable for him, for during
such times he was obliged TO sit in the
kitchen. She also entertained gentle
men callers at Late and unreasonable
hours of the night at her dwelling house
at Camden" according to the COM
plant.
On one occasion when she was prom
enading the streets gentleman friend
Of Van Vechten told her THAT if she
didn't let up on her carryin's OH he
would tell her husband" To this she
replied that "She did not care for her
husband, and would soon get rid of
him." The injured husband further
says that before her marriage to him
she was the widow of one Floyd Locke,
who died suddenly and under very sus-
plclous circumstances, and that there
were strong suspicious that she had
poisoned him.
The answer to this somewhat remark
able complaint has not been filed as yet.
