DIVORCE CASES
Two Divorce Cases Tried in Judge
GIdspeIl's Court Thurs
day.
Court Refused to Grant a Decree in
Case of Minnie A. PIOurd vs..
John N. PIOurd.
Mrs. Edward CoIyiIIe Granted a
Decree on Grounds of DesertiOn
and Non.SuppOrt.

The case of Minnie A. PlOurd vs.
Joseph n. Plourd an action for di-
vOrce on the grounds Of cruelty de-
sertion and nOn-support was heard by
Judge Glaspell Thuday. The defen
dant is in the employ Of Phil Masonand
was formerly a resident Of Coul tenay.
The plaintiff testified that defendant
made her unhappy and that on one
occasion he threatened to kill her un
less she made up her mind to become
a Catholic before certain time. She
stated that he had taken treatment
at the asylum afterWard. Other wit
nesses testified that Plourd was sullen
at times. After the evidence OF the
plaintiff was all in, Attorney ThOrp
for the defendant, moved the dismiS-
sal of the case on the grounds that
the plaintiff had failed to subStantiate
the allegations made. Attorney Rose
for the plaintiff opposed the motion.
Judge Glaspell stated that mere sui
| lenness or cOldness or little quarrels &c
| not constitute causes for divorce. The
| court said the evidence seemed TO be
that the plaintiff deserted the defend
| ant. He sustained the motion of At
| torney Thorp and ordered the case
dismissed.
The divorce case Of Colville VS.. Col
vile was also heard. Mrs. Edward
COlyille, the plaintiff alone appeared
She testified that she was reSiden
OF Valley City and that defendant de
serted her in 1898, two years afte1
they were married and had not sup
ported her since that time. A decree
was ordered by Judge Glaspell

Convention Notes.

Morris Beck found a pocket book in
the Waldorf and the owner was glad
it was Norris who found it and who
returned considerable money with the
book.
Sam Mathews took excellent care OF
the crowd and every one has praises
for the management OF the hotel and
the cuisine. Mr.. and Mrs Chas. Rat
niger are part of the hotel manage
ment attending to various duties,
Charley doing ali the buying for the
hotel.
One OF the agreements with Gov,
White which the Stutsmdn county
delegates secured was that there
should be no change in the superinten.
dency of the asylum as far as he could
arrange it in the appointment Of new
trustees next winter.
A republican Scandinavian league
was organized to meet two days be-
fore the republican convention. The
object is purely political, and intended
to influence nominations and secure
attendance on primary meetings and
aid in purifying politics, it is stated.
The letter in the Fargo Call from
jamestown roasting T. II. Poole after
the county convention, was matter
of regret to the delegates from this
county who disclaim any connection
with the authorship, and denounced
the same as unnecessary and ungener-
Gus. The reflections on the other
parties named especially as to Mr..
Little, were resented as being untrue
and out of place. Tom was defeated
in the fight for the delegation and
takes his medicine with as good grace
as could be expected. He has friends
and former political workers who have
no personal i'll will towards him. The
matter Of the use of beer at rallies
was as much resorted to by one faction
as the other.
