Hollis johnson, a dentist, has been
ordered by Judge Lindsay to pay his
wife, Bertha N. Johnson, $75 a month
alimony and $50 with which to pay her
attorney. The order was the result Of
a citation to Mr.. Johnson to appear in
court and show cause why he should not
be required to pay her 500 per month
and her attorney the modest sum of $3.50.
A few weeks & Johnson instituted
divarce proceedings against his wife,
alleging among other things in the COM
plant that the marriage of the defend
ant and himself had taken place at the
Dalles, Ore, on October 20, 1895; and that
she had deserted him in November OF
1895. 1t was on the latter allegation he
based his right to a decree. Mrs. John
son filed an answer alleging that instead
of October 20. 1895, their marriage had oc-
Cured on that date in 1889. In giving
her testimony she said two children had
been born to them and We're being cared
for by her, and she had not deserted the
plaintiff, as alleged, put they had lived
together until last April, when he DESERT
ed her. Last May she had received $50
from him for the support Of herself and
children. but none since them. She fur
ther said her husband had been a plum
Der, but had quit it and gone into the
dentistry business. According to his
own claim he seldom if ever. she said.
took in less than $3.50 per month. He had
recently made $400 out a mine deal.
Johnson himself testified that he had
lived in Montana five years and although
he was doing dental work he was only
an apprentice to a licensed practitioner.
He had earned only about $3.50 this year,
but had cleaned up a few hundred on the
mine deal mentioned. He said he pos
sessed only 800 and was not at work now.
When the Judge made the order the
defendant asked what would be done
with him in case he failed to obey it
and was told that the court would attend
to that part of the transaction.

MACHINE FOR CHECKING RACERS.

For registering the results OF a foot
race the human eye and voice seem.
sometimes painfully inadequate. Close
contests Of this kind will doubtless end
more pleasantly when the new Judging
machine described by the Golden
Penny" comes into general use.
The machine. which was invented by
an Australian. is designed to be placed
at the finish line, and consists OF a
light metal frame partitioned into two
or more divisions, each about four feet
wide. on the top Of the frame stands
a small cabinet containing numbered
divisions corresponding to the numbers
Of the tracks.
The instant the first man passes
through his division shutter falls, dis
closing the track number. The other
numbers are Immediately locked, ex-
cept when the machine is set for final
heats. In this case small cylinder is
attached to the machine. and q ham
mer head strikes a mark on the revolv-
ing cylinder as the men finish. Thus
the exact positions of all the competi-
tors can be told TO a nicely.
The same inventor has originated an
automatic judging machine. for bicycle
races. 1t consists Of fine, light metal
strips placed In a small trench about
two inches wide, which is sunk across
the track at the finish.
During the last two laps these strips.
which are coated with enamel, are
placed in position by means Of a lever
and the first wheel to cross receives five
marks. In crossing, however. it dis
nlaces one of the strips. and the next
wheel therefore only receives four
marks. the third three, and so on.
