whom he brought to his house to remain
over night The next morning about
O clock he arose to go into the laun Try,
and in passing through the sitting rom
he discovered his wife sitting In the lap
of his whiOm friend and boon compan-
Ion. His wife explained that she had
just arisen and was on her way to The
kitchen a moment before her husband
appeared, when Halverson, the guest,
seized hold of her and pulled her onto
his lap, she, in the meantime, trying to
escape.
A warm scene ensued, which ended IN
Halvorson being fired from the house,
after which Enger proceeded to chastise
his Wife by striking her a number OF

The attorney for the accused admitted
the assault, which he thought had been
provoked by the actions of his wife. and
he explained that as they had kissed and
made up, they would depend upon the
mercy of the court to give them chance
to live once more together. 1t was then
shown that he had locked his wife ont
of the laundry and chased her from the
house, so that she was compelled to seek
the protection of neighbors. Judge Kerr
thought it was not a case for mercy, es
pecially as he had whipped her before.

POSTMASTER Thrown OUT.
Uncle Sam Had a Surprise Party at
Elbow Lake.

ELBOW LAKE, March 21.-(Special.)-
While Lars J. Hauge, the new appointee,
IS well qualified for the office of post
master, and is personally popular, this
community has hardly gotten over the
surprise caused by the summary removal
of A. W. Nelson, the cause given being a
shortage in his accounts on the occasion
of a recent examination by the postoffice
Inspector.
He found a shortage Of about $780, and
remarked at the time that there would be
another postmaster in Elbow Lake soon
but it was not regarded seriously, Mr..
Nelson having turned in an amount that
balanced accounts as soon as informed
of the shortage. The Inspector how
ever, reported Mr.. Nelson, and his re-
moval followed as a matter of course.
AS soon as Mr. Nelson's friends learned
of the situation they Instituted a deter
mined fight for his retention. Congress-
man Eddy, armed with the strongest
recommendations, went to the postoffice
department and insisted that the wishes
of the people here should be respected.
