TROUBLES OF LENA Herring
And Her Husband Supposed to
Be at an End.
AN AGREEMENT REACHED
Suit for Divorce and Cross-Bin Dis
missed-She WIN Pay Her Own
Costs-Mrs Ganke Gets
Her Decree.

The troubles of Lena Ella Herring and
her husband, Philip Herring. which for
year or more have had numerous
airings in the courts of Butte and
Park county, seemed to have about
reached their end. The two have
agreed on some kind of a settlement,
and yesterday Mrs. Hering's suit for
a divorce and her husbands cross bill
We're dismissed at the request of her
attorney. At the same time all the
courts orders recently made regard
ing the property, alimony and counsel
fees were vacated and Mrs. Herring
agreed to pay her own costs. AS soon
as all the proceedings had been dis
missed Herring instituted a suit against
his wife for divorce on the ground of
desertion and asked for the custody
of their child. His complaint
says that they were married at Port
land July 10, 1896, and that she de-
serted him on Dec. Is, 1897 All the
charges of unfaithfulness made in the
previous suit are eliminated in the last
and it is likely that a divorce will be
secured by default.
Several weeks ago a default was en-
tered in the divorce case of May Weed
Ganke against Henry A. Ganke and
the proofs were set for hearing before
Judge Clancy a week ago yesterday.
The plaintiffs case was prepared on
dispositions, but Judge Clancy said he
would require the presence of the
plaintiff in court, and the hearing was
set for 10 o'clock yesterday morning,
and Mrs. Ganke came down from
Great Falls, where she is at present
employed. Yesterday morning Judge
Clancy refused to hear the case, say
ing that he would not hold court, but
later in the day Judge Lindsay con-
sented to hear the evidence and grant
ed the plaintiff a divorce on the
grounds of cruelty and non-support.
Mrs. Ganke, who is well known cor
net player, testified that her husband
had never supported her, although he
earned from $35 to $50 week. 1t was
Mr.. Gankes second mesalliance in
matrimony.
The hearing of the plaintiffs proofs
in the divorce case of Joseph Merrick,
which had been set for hearing yester-
day, was again continued for one

A DREAM THAT PAID.
How the Sewing Machine Needle Was
Invented.

Invented.
We owe the invention of the sewing
machine to Elias Howe, an American
mechanic, as you all know. He had a
large family to care for, and could give
only his odd moments to the construc-
ton of his machine But while labor
ing for daily bread for himself and his
family, he was constantly thinking out
his invention.
He got on quite well until he came to
the making of needle; then he was at
a standstill, for he could not discover
where the eye of the needle should be
placed. At first he thought that needle
fashioned after the ordinary needle for
hand sewing might be all right, but af-
ter much experiments he found that
it would not do.
He was greatly perpleXed. The nee
die question absorbed his thoughts by
day. and at night he dreamed about
needles. One night he dreamed that he
was in far distant country that was
ruled over by a savage king. The king
ordered him to construct a sewing ma
chine, and, not daring to disobey Or
ders, he at once set to work. All went
we'll until he came to the location of the
needles eye; then his troubles began.
The king grew impatient. and finally
gave the inventor just "a hours in which
TO complete the machine, ana told MN
he must forfeit his life if he failed to
finish the task. He worked harder than
ever, you may be sure. but found that
he could not invent proper needle,
and had to give it up.
Just as the kings warriors were
about to take him away to execute him.
he noticed that the spears they carried
were pierced near the head. Like an
inspiration the solution of the needle
problem came to him, and, while i'm
ploring the savage king for a little
more time, he awoke.
Although it was but o'clock in the
morning. Mr.. Howe arose at once, and
went to his workshop and by o'clock
he had modelled a needle for his sewing
machine with an eye at the point. Thus
was the perplexing problem solved.

FEET GROW SMALLER.
Consolation for Young Ladies From the

Girls between the ages of 16 and IS

maker, land they are rather fat and
flabby, too, but at about % remarka-
BILE change comes about. The foot then
completely subsidies. the flabbiness dis
appears, the flesh Becomes firmer, the
muscles and tendons get stronger and
the bones become well set. Altogether
a great difference is seen.
Yes, we have great difficulty with
girls of about II or therea bouts, for
they now require a boot or shoe ss
large as a full-grown woman's. When
they get older and the foot becomes
settled, new boots made on the old last
will be found too large, and it is only
when the young ladies complain that
their new shoes are too big that We
know the foot has undergone the
change just described. Then eXplana-
tons have to be given, but the boot
maker doesn't mind this so much for a
woman. as she grows older, likes to he
told that her foot is getting smaller.
After 40 the feet of a woman go
back to the fat and flabby state, and
herein grows trouble for the hootma-
ker, who has to state in explanation
why the last pair of shoes do not fit
that the cause lies in the fact that ner
feet are getting bigger.

WANTED TO Hotp THE RING.
Peculiar Phase of IA Case in Judge
Talty's Court.

From the ST. Louis Globe-Democrat.
A dispute arose yesterday between
Chief Deputy Sheriff John Pohlman and
Circuit Attorney Eggers over the dis
position of diamond ring which fig
ured as evidence in the case of Joseph
Lucas. acquitted in Judge Talty's
court Thursday afternoon of the charge
of stealing the ring. Ethel Willard,
who swOre out a warrant for Lucas
arrest on a charge of grand lacenry,
and who appeaed before the grand jury
in the case, failed to appear in court
when the case was called on Thursday
afternoon. There being no one to posi-
lively identify the ring, Judge Tally
took the case from the jury and or
dered the discharge of the defendant.
Then Circuit Attorney Eggers claimed
the ring as security for a portion of the
costs in the case. To this the deputy
sheriff objected, as he had given the
police his receipt for the ring and by
them would be held responsible for it's
return to Ethel Willard, it's owner. The
matter was laid before Judge Taity
and he ordered the ring turned over to
the sheriff, ruling that he was the
proper official to hold stolen property.
Behind the whole affair is a peculiar
story One night last March the Will
lard woman accompanied by Mrs
Joseph Lucas, reported to Chief Des-
mond that Joseph Lucas had stolen
her ring, valued at $50. Detective Nc
Carly was sent out to arrest Lucas, and
through all the legal steps which the
case passed until it was ready
to be placed before the grand jury,
the wife of Lucas and the owner of
the ring seemed equally interested in
the prosecution of Lucas. Then when
the case was brought before the grand
jury, the Willard woman acquired a
sudden change of feeling in the matter
