AN EXCELLENT PIE CRUST.

Without Fear of Dyspepsia
The Americans fondness for pie is
both proverbial and greatly criticised.
And when the pastry is made in the
common manner it deserves the censure
heaped upon it by foreigners and by the
lovers of hygiene among our own folk.
For so greasy mixture is without
doubt Il dyspepsia feeder, and those in
dividuals arc not far wrong who affirm
that if child could be brought up with
out having ever tasted pie it would be
50 much the better off.
Yet thoro is u way by which if the
crust. the Objectionable part, be made,
the result need not be otherwise than u
very cream Of pie. And while it may
be out of tho reach of city jewellers gen

this journal vast number of country
and village matrons who have always

The method, from scientific stand

SADLY lLL-MATED PAIRS

BUTTE, March 6.-Mary Dilley to-day
began an action in tine district court for a
divorce from Charles Dilley, whom she
says she was married to in Butte on Nov.
Is. 1888. She complains that for more
than six years her husband had been con-
tinuously and habitually drunk and has
contributed nothing toward the support of
herself and her 10-year-old daughter She
also complains that for six years he has
absented himself and deserted his family
and that she had to work so hard to sup
port herself and child that she became
partially paralyized in her right side. Mrs.
Dilley makes affidavit that she is too poor
to pay the court costs of her suit and an
order was made to permit her to prose-
cute il without costs. She asks for the
care and custody of the child.
The suit for divorce of Riley Walling
against Ada Walling was dismissed in
Judge Speer's court this morning at the
plaintiffs costs. 1t is stated that there is
quite n story connected with the Walling
case in which another young woman cut

Fighting for "a Ranch

A suit of Mrs. Ellen Jennings, admins.
tratrix of the estate of her deceased hus-
band, Solomon Jennings, against Robert
German, for the possession of about lag
acres of ranch land situated in the vicin-
ity of Melrose, was on trial before Judge
Mediation to-day. Mrs. Jennings claims
that German is in unlawful possession of
the land and seeks 10 recover il, and she
also demands $1,000 as damages, and also
$1,000 as rents and profits of which she
has been deprived.
German claims that he bought the land
from Jennings July %, 1883, for s.. OOl.
and that the deed was drawn up by Caleb
Irvine, now deceased, but by mistake
the description of the land did not
describe all the property intended
to be conveyed. lie asked the
court to order reformation
of the deed, but the attorneys for Mrs.
Jennings objected TO the introduction of
the testimony on that point on the ground
that Mrs. Jennings was not included as
one OF the grantors in the alleged deed,
and the deed having been executed before
the death of Mr.. Jennings, therefore no
reformation could now be asked for.
The question raised was argued at
length and the objection was sustained
by the court. German then relied for a
defense on the statute of limitations and
started to prove that he has been i'm un-
disputed possession of the land for more
than five years. The trial was not con-
cluded when court adjourned for the day.
