WHEELMEN no CoNFER.

A committee Of the Wilmington BIZ
cycle Club in conjunction with a COM
mittee of New Castle wheelmen. Will
meet the latter part of this week to
drive over the proposed route and
formulate plans looking towards the
building of a bicycle path between this
city and Wilmington. The road COM
missiOners Of this hundred will accom-
pany them. The latter body intends
to guard its rights in the matter, which
is not at all unreasonable. II is de-
clared by some who have investigated
the matter that the path would cost
from $3.50 to $500 per mile, as some
places are in such a condition that
there would practically be no cost to
speak of, while other places would re-
quire quite an outlay. There are prob
ably 1000 wheelmen and women in
both cities who would gladly contribute
81 each towards this laudable under
taking. This amount would build the
read and keep it in repair for some
/ time to come.
There is a rumor that a bill is now
pending in the Legislature which may
not be Of benefit to the wheelmen OF
this location.

Mrs. Augustine Stockder, wife NO. l
Of Moritz Stockder, who came to Butte
in search Of her husband and found him
married to and living With his niece, Is
trying to make what profits she can out
of her misfortune. Stockder skipped out
and his household goods were attached
and a chattel mortgage was foreclosed,
but Mrs. Stockder resisted and was ar
rested for disturbance. a warrant was
next issued for Mrs. Stockder No. 2,
charging her with adultery, but the
warrant was never served and the wo-
man is now also missing.
Yesterday Mrs. Stockder No. ] COM
menced two suits in the district court,
one for damages and the other to recov-
er the property which had belonged to
her husband and which was attached
by a constable. The first suit is against
August Benz. the man who had a mort
gage on the household effects. She al
legged in the complaint that on Sept. l6
Benz went before Justice L~aurandeau
and falsely and maliciously and without
cause accused her Of disturbing the
peace, and caused her arrest. h says
she was confined in the Jail for two
hours and was compelled to give Sc
curity for her appearance in order to
obtain her release. On Sept. 20, after
she had pleaded not guilty n was
ready for trial. the case was postponed
until the 23d, at which time the county
attorney appeared and dismissed the
case and discharged Mrs. Stockder. she
says that the charge made against her
and the facts of her arrest were pub
lished in the newspapers by the pro-
curement Of the defendant. and it
greatly injured her in her reputation
and social standing. She was compelled
to expend 500 to defend herself. By
reason of the arrest, prosecution and
publication OF the matter she was hui
INFLATED and suffered great mental an
guish, to her damage in the sum of
81, 900. She demands judgment for that
and for 500 600 more because of her ar
rest and detention. and kinks the de-
PENDANT should be mulcted i'm the sum
Of $4,000 additional as exemplary dam
ages because the arrest was caused by
him for no other purpose than TO annoy,
harass and humiliate her. knowing that
she had o committed the offense
charged against her. She wants in all
500.
Her second suit is against Constable
Tim Harrington and his bondsmen, Dan
Drew and Patrick Mullins. In the com
plant she says that on Sept. II the con-
stable took from her possession books
and other effects valued at $500. and
as he still retains them, she has been
damaged in the sum Of 800. Mrs,
Stockder says in her complaint that she
is the lawful wife OF Moritz Stockder.
The latter, she says, is absent from the
country. and for that reason has not
claimed an exemption of his property
under the law.
Mrs. Stockder makes an affidavit that
she is too poor to pay the court costs
of her suits, and Judge Lindsay made
an order that she be permitted to prose
cute them without costs. John w. Cot
ter is her attorney.
