TWO DIVORCE CASES
That Are Exciting No Little Attention Up il
Aroostook County.

Caribou. Me-, Dec. 10.-It is in a way a
subject for congratulation that the Kay
divorce case will not spread its array of
ugly charges before the public. 1t is an.
nounced that Mrs. Kay will not act upon
her cross libel and will not appear to con-
test the suit brought by her husband.
For some time there was considerable
haggling between the parties as to the
terms of the financial settlement and one
or two offers were rejected. But now il
is arranged that the divorce proceedings
begun by Mr.. Kay will go on and it will
IN all probability not be necessary for the
more ugly charges to be pressed against
Mrs. Kay.
Among the other divorce cases on the
docket for this term is an action in
which Rev. Aaron Hanson of Woodland
is the petitioner. and he wants to be re-
leased from Mrs. Hanson. to whom he
was married only last January in York
county. 1t appears that the course OF
true love commenced to run over bubbles
very soon after the marriage, for the
plaintiff deposes in his libel that he and
his wife separated some time in March
and have not lived together since that
time.
The main trouble was that Mrs Hanson
still desires to reside in York county, but
that the elder wanted to remove to Wood
land. He AYERS in his document that he
was willing to build house on his Wood
fused to come there.
Mrs. Hanson's sole response to the ac-
tion of the elder is an appeal for the
proper alimony. She evidently has no
particular desire to come into the SUBJ
urban delights of a Woodland parish.
