He is going TO save all this by placing with
his patrons Dairy Separators, and have
wagons call for the cream.
In this way the farmer will get the full adj

TENS, will have the warm fresh skim milk
at home for stock feed and will not be at ex-
pense of carting his milk to a creamery.
Before ordering these 500 Separators, val
ued at over $4,000, the merits of all the
different Dairy Scparators on the market
were very thoroughly considered and prac-
teal tests were made by Mr.. Moody.
1t was finally decided that the Sharples

were the most desirable and best made ma

money, il was thought they were we'll worth

DAKOTA DIVORCE INVALID.
new 1Ork's Supreme Court Gives Out
an Important Opinion.

new HOrk's Supreme Court Gives Out
an Important Opinion.
Justice Russell, in the New York supreme
court, yesterday, formulated his ruling that
divorce procured in North Dakota by q
resident of New York state is invalid. The
case was that of Henry P. McGown against
Mary Emma McGown, the plaintiff suing
Tor divorce on the ground that the defend
ant was unlawfully living with Harry Bell
as his wife. Mrs. McGown, after procuring
divorce in North Dakota, had married
Bell. In his decision Judge Russell said:
The wife's place is at the home of her
husband and child. and she cannot acquire
foreign residence for the express purpose
OF freeing herself from the charge of yIo-
iatlon or duty and exempting herself from
Its obligation. Nor if she had gained a
residence In the state of North Dakota
would her suit there have been effective To
sever the marriage ties by judicial force.
the courts must gain Jurisdiction by per-
sonai service of the process upon the de-
fendant or by his voluntary appearance.
w men the defendant said the Judge
went through the form of a marriage
TO Bell, she was still the lawful wife Of the
pialntln Her own wrong-doing, therefore,
cannot render valid the judgment of a
North Dakota court, which bill for that
account would have been wholly Invalid -
A suit brought by McGown against Bell
Tor the alienation of his ,wife's affections
In which he claims 100000 damages, is
pending, and will shortly be tried

THE ARBITRATION TREATY.
A Long Consideration Probable in
the Senate.

Long Confederation Probable i'm
the Senate.
There has been more or less discussion
concerning the arbitration treaty recently
negotiated by Secretary Olney and Sir
Julian Pauncefote, and some speculation as
to its ratification. A member of the conf
mittee on foreign relations stated today
that the subject was SO vast that 4: was
necessary to give the matter very close
consideration before any action should be
taken. and that in the examination of f.,
there were possibilities which might cause
man to change his mind many times He
said that until he could give the matter
such attention as the SUBJECT demanded
he would not be quoted upon the matter
He said that one phase might be instanced:
AT present there might not be ANYTHING in
view to arbitrate, yet after general arbitra-
ton had been agreed upon any number of
unknown cases might be presented by one
OF the parties. and many claims which
we're unheard OF might be brought forward
Ihese unknown quantities nigh: be a
agreement.
Senator White of California says that he
would support the treaty. IL at all, because
IL was for short period and was largely
experimental. 1t might be that the expert
ment would prove successful, but he fear
arise some new principle might be brought
Forward which 1t might not be good policy
to submit to the tribunal proposed in the
treaty He said some question relating to
the Monroe doctrine might arise. and Thai
question the United States would not care
TO submit to arbitration. Another case in
stanced by senator who has given the
subject some thought was Cuba. Under
certain conditions the United States might
desire to take action regarding the island
ana assert the Monroe doctrine The Eu-
ropean powers. Great Britain included
might dispute the right of the United
states under Monroe or any other doctrine
10 interfere, and the matter. in SO far as
Great Britain was concerned. must 20 10
arbitration. Reference was also made to
the Monroe doctrine resolutions now pend
ing In the Senate. in which the declaration
was made that the United States reserved
piled. "p
The discussion yesterday afternoon fnli
Gated that the treaty would REQUIRE long
consideration, and the opinion was ex
pressed that 1t might he ratified through
lhnuence OF the peace societies and kindred
organizations, who felt that such a treaty
might prevent war in the future
