IN THE DISTRICT COURT.
Mrs. Franklin Wants n Divorce Mr..
Dedrichson Wants Damages.


Great Falls, Aug. 2.-Three suits were
filed in the district court to-day. Edy-
thenZo Franklin brought suit against
her husband for divorce. She alleges
that they were married on July ?, 1896,
and that they lived together as man and
wife until Oct. 5 of that same year. They
resided during that time in Butte, and
his treatment. the plaintiff alleges, was
extremely cruel. She names several
dates on which he kicked and beat her.
Then he apparently left her and since
thai time she has supported herself and
had nothing TO do with him.. The suit
is brought by Gustave b. Aldridge. who
enjoys the distinction of being the only
colored man admitted to the bar in this
state.
Louis D~edrichson asks judgment
against William Bowers in the sum of
S745 as damages alleged to have accrued
from breach of contract. His contract
states hat Bowers agreed for the sum
of S75 to seed 40 acres of land with mil
let, Bowers to furnish the seed and to
do the work. The and was OF a char
acter that two tons per acre would have
been a reasonable crop and IS per ton a
reasonable price for that crop, making
the value Of the predicted crop 500.
Louis claims that William used seed
thai was no good in character n in
addition mixed with a large proportion
of mustard seed, and, worse than all,
he was %niggardly in its distribution, so
that the crop which did come up was
thin and struggling and the mustard
crop was better than that Of the millet.
Then, he says, he had to pay a man $25
to kill out the mustard.

he used none Of the varieties in the list
