EastonvilIe Items.

Mrs. Chambers, who has been
living in Eastonville for the past
year, left last week for Goodland,
Kansas, to live with her son, who
has a good position on the Rock
Island road. Two of her children
will remain in Eastorville, one OF
which-a girl ten years old-is
adopted by Mr.. and Mrs. Soule.
Two weeks ago we mentioned
the departure of Mrs. Barkley, of
this place, 10 Logan, Kansas, to
attend the funeral of her father,
John e. Palmer, who died at that
place September 18th. In refer
ring to the deceased the Logan
(Kans.) Republican speaks in the
highest terms of him as a christian
gentleman and conscientious in his
belief and work. He was men,
Der of the Methodist church; was
born in England in 1928, and at
the time of his death was rs years
old, having lived the allotted time
three score years and ten. Mis-
Barkley arrived home last week.

NEW ROAD WANTED.

A new road petition asking that
a county road be located beginning
at the corner of Josie Oaks
ranch, two miles southeast of
town and running one mile north
on the section line, thence west on
the township line to Ebert, was
presented to the county commits
sioners Monday and will no doubt
be promptly acted upon. The
road now running over the
Schimpf hill is practically impas>
sible for loads and is really dan
gerous to travel and will be done
away with if the new route can be
established Many settlers reside
in that neighborhood and all adj
init they are entitled to decent
road if 1t can possibly be obtained
and the commissioners are very
desirous of accommodating them
if they can do so, hence we may
expect prompt action.

Today the tribune enters upon
the 18th year of its publication and
is duly proud of its age and the
progress it has made. Week after
week without single omission for
all these fourteen years it has
greeted its readers, recording faith
fully events o. the town and

and circulation. We have tried
to do our duty by giving clean.
neat, newsy paper and our efforts
have evidently been appreciated.

find yourself aggrieved by some

time been in the real estate business
in Butte. was married last week at
Blackfoot, Idaho. to Mrs. Medora South
ard. also OF Butte. n who until re-
Gently lived at 9O7 Nevada avenue.
There is something Of a story connect
ed with the marriage. When Mahan
lived in Anaconda and for some time
after his removal to Butte. he had an
other wife. a distinguished looking ard
strikingly handsome woman. They had
not resided in Butte long before the
friends of Mrs. Mahan became aware
that her married life was not a happy
one and they were therefore not much
surprised when. about the 10th OF Au-
gust. she brought a suit in the district
court for divorce. The ground alleged
was habitual intemperance. but friends
OF Mrs. Mahan said that behind that
charge vas another story. Mr.. Manan
did o oppose the suit. in fact he took
proceedings which FASTENED the divorce
After the decree had been granted Mrs.
III lIldbt Nllt StuSdAlhlldl SNtAtt1ltIN
that she had practically been forced in
10 applying for the divorce.
Since the separation Mrs. Maha has
been supporting herself by conducting
the Beresford apartment house on West
Quartz street. and Mr.. Mahan has ON
tinued his real estate business.
A week ago last Sunday he left the
city for Blackfoot, announcing that he
would return h following Tuesday.
but did not. Yesterday marked copies
of the Blackfoot News We're received in
Butte, announcing his marriage to Mrs.
Southland at that place by Rev. Price of

versationalist with a certain hauteur Of
