Elizabeth Dryer has begun suit for
divorce from her husband, Matt Dwyer,
in the district court at Chicago. The
couple we're married in 1874, but after
coming to Minneapolis Matt Dryer,
with his brother John, went father west
to seek his fortune, leaving his wife in
Minneapolis. After short time all
communication ceased between them,
and it was not until 1890 that Mrs. Eli
zabeth Dryer heard, by accident, that
Matt was running for sheriff of Jackson
county, Missouri, at Kansas City. Think
ing that possibly it was her Nett, she
went there and discovered that such was
actually the case. He had become en-
gagged to Kansas City lady, however,
and refused to live with his first wife,
who in the meantime had inherited an
estate of $500, 600, hence the suit. Dryer
was ignorant of his WIFE legacy, how
ever.

on Wednesday, June 6, q piece OF bust

day morning Michael McGrath, OF Lake
Emily, came to town to see the circus
and his visit has cost him most dearly,
for on that day he was taken in by
smooth bunco steerers and feeced out OF
S1,625 in good, cold cash. The story OF
