WAS UNTEN CRUEL?
EVIDENCE OF WIFE ON POINT BE.
ING CONSIDERED BY JUDGE
JAGGARD
BARE RECITAL IS APPALLING
IN Plea for Divorce Mrs. Unten Ac-
cuses Husband of Most Unnat-
UraI COnduct-NO De-
Tense Entered.

Whether a man in habitually neglect
ing his wife and falling to properly pro-
vide for his wife and children, or meet his
obligations for household expenses, has
been guilty Of cruelty sufficient to justify
a divorce, is a question which Judge
Jaggard has taken under advisement in
the case of Mrs. Emma Unten against
Joseph Unten, in which cruelty is al
legged as the cause of action.
The case came up for a hearing yester-
day, there being no appearance on the
part Of the defendant, either in person
or by counsel The testimony on behalf
Of the plaintiff was such as to indicate
most unnatural conduct on the part of
the defendant toward his family, and so
impressed the court that he inquired
if it were not possible that the man
might be insane. To this inquiry the
wife replied that she did not believe
her husband to be actually insane, al
though admitting that his actions were
such as to indicate at least a peculiar
mental status.
According to Mrs. Unten's allegations,
the couple were married Dec. Is, 1887, and
have three children living, all girls,
whose ages are thirteen, eleven and
eight years. There was one other daugh-
ter VINO died, and in the course of her
testimony Mrs. Untgen told the court
that when the child died her husband
would not pay the undertaken for the
burial until suit had been brought Mrs

Arrangements for the newsboys' night
at the Metropolitan theater next Tuesday
night are practically completed. At that
time about ESQ of the enterprising
youngsters who sell T h G 0 b e on the
streets of st. Paul will be the guests OF
Mr.. Knox Wilson and Mr.. Richard earle,
of sThe Explorers company, which will
be at the Metropolitan next week. Both
Mr.. Wilson and Mr. earle are preparing
some funny things fer the especial de-
lectatlon of their little guests, and there
will be someIning doing every minute.
1t sure thing that the newsies will
enjoy the performance, for, as a matter
OF fact, it is the funniest show that has
visited the city this year. and if every
one of the boys has a lame side the next
day from laughing oyermuch-he can con-
sole himself with the thought that he IS
not the only one similarly afflicted.
In addition to the preparations that are
in making by Messrs. Wilson and Garlic
the other members of the company have
been thinking, and they promise to put
in few interpretations that will not be
wholly bad. Manager Cullen has also
taken the matter up and is evincing the

DAIRYMEN IN COURT
STATE DEPARTMENT rs PROSE
CUTTING CARELESS ONES
VIGOROUSLY
MUST KEEP CLEAN STABLES
Cases of Extreme Disregard for the
Proper Handling of Milk Found
in Minneapolis-Other Vio-
latiOns Prosecuted.

The dairy and food department is max
Ing a special crusade against dairymen
who persist in their refusal to obey the
warnings of the department in the matter
Of keeping their barns clean and their
cows comfortably cared for While the
cases of this kind are few, those that do
exist are most extreme. Minneapolis
has suffered in this regard more than
any other locality. Today the depart
ment will prosecute two Minneapolis dali
rymen on the charge of keeping their
COWS in impure barns. The cases are
of a very aggravating nature The
conditions as described by the inspectors
are something terrible, and the depart
ment hopes to be able to secure a con-
viction. The facts are undisputed, and
If the law will not reach the violators,
the department will see that the patrons
know the conditions existing.
"It is commonly supposed that it does
not matter much how the cows are cared
for, or what condition the barns are in if
the milk is only properly cared for after
milking and put in clean cans. This
is erroneous. 1t has been proved that
milk can be very easily tainted before
being drawn from the COW. A man who
keeps a filthy dairy barn has no business
selling milk to the public and we will
put a stop to it if possible
Charles Christianson and Hans Han
son, dairymen Of Northeast Minneapolis,
were arraigned in the municipal court
at Minneapolis yesterday on a charge of
keeping COWS in foul stables. Their
barn is at 3401 Fourth street northeast
The complaint is made by George L..
Dingnan, assistant dairy and food COM
missioner. Mr.. Dingman visited the
stables March and warned the milk
men to improve conditions. He called
yesterday with S. B. Scott, one of the in
spectors, and found no improvement.
The place is owned by P. N. Hanson.
Mr.. Dingman found a reprehensible con-
dition of affairs, which unfortunately the
law is not broad enough to reach. Mr..
Hanson has fifty-fVe yearling calves,
which are kept all day long in a pen
thirty-six feet by twelve. There is
hardly room for them to lie down, and
their quarters have not been cleaned in
months. The law relating to stables
only applies to dairy cattle, and there is
ton of affairs, unless the Humane socie-
ty acts.
During the past week the department
has secured four convictions for viola
ton Of the spice law Two dairymen at
New Paynesville were fined PROMPTLY on
being arrested for keeping unclean barns
and keeping their milk in unclean cans.
The filming of the violators has good
effect upon those who are not too partic-
ular as to how they do business Com
missioner Mcconnell says the surest way
to stamp out Illegal methods is to give
wide publicity to the penalties incurred
by the offenders.

PUT UP IRON SHEDS
ST. PAUL'S NEW MARKET is AT
LAST TAKING DEFINITE
SHAPE
W0RKMEN ARE KEPT BUSY
1t Is Hoped to Have All the sheds
in Position Early Next Month
-NegOtiaIiOns for
Room.
W0RKMEN ARE KEPT BUSY

Workmen are low engaged erecting th@
iron sheds on the new market site, and If
the weather should continue favorable
they will be in position by the early part
of next month.
The new sheds, entirely of iron, are
of tasteful design, and their erection the
past week has drawn daily crowd of
curious to the grounds at Tenth and
Jackson streets. A travelling derrick has
been placed in position, and as fast as
the frames and supports are riveted and
bolted together they are hoisted into po-
sition.
Members Of the two council bodies who
have fostered the public market question
from the time of its inception, a couple of
years ago, have great hopes for the in
stltution now going up on Jackson street,
and predict that in time 1t will be count
ed among the best of st. PauPs munich
pal enterprises.
Just now the rules and regulations
drafted for the conduct of the market
only contemplate that it shall be open to
patrons and the pl bile at certain hours
during the day and for period during
the year, extending from May to October
but it is hoped that in time the market
can be conducted the year through, and
also of an evening if desired
10 run the market in the winter would
require that the grounds be covered
with a building and the same heated.
This, however, just now is not feasible,
owing to lack of money, but the sheds
have been so arranged that they can be
incloSed at any time
The problem now confronting the mem
bers of the council is a lack Of ground
but this they hope to solve by the ac-
QUESTION of the Davidson and Bartol
| tracts, just to the north of the present
site.
The city has arranged for the securing
Of the Davidson tract, having appropri-
ated the money necessary, but the title
| is said to be badly hampered, and until
| it is cleared by the owners nothing can
be done. The Bartol tract is now in
court, and commission Is engaged in
giving 1t valuation. The COM
| mission Is expected to report next
| week When condemned last year, the
price was placed at 5000. The new COM
mission will undoubtedly increase the
price to $4,000.
A meeting of the joint committee on
markets was held yesterday and an
| agreement reached to equip the grounds
with platform scales. A protest was
also received from Third ward parties
who object to the present location of the
| hay market. AS soon as possible the hay
market will be moved to the new market
| site.

Unten told the court that her husband
for years had been in the habit of alb
senting himself from his family and al
though he had a business as a tean2rter
or eXpreSsman which paid him from SIS
to 500 a month, as he had admitted
himself in the course of non-support pro-
ceedings in the municipal court, he had
refused to furnish his family with money
for their maintenance or to pay their
necessary expenses. She said, also, that
she believed her husband made it a
practice to sleep with his horses when
he was away from home, and that when
he came home he was very uncleanly
about his person. At times she had
found it necessary to burn his clothing
because OF their filthy condition. Mrs.
Unten stated that at times she had been
compelled to take refuge at the home
of her mother, Mrs. Frederika Lang, and
had to ask assistance of her brothers.
Her testimony IL certain particulars was
corroborated by Mrs. Lang and by Mrs.
Wasko.
In the course Of the hearing it was
brought out that Unten had been pros
ecuted in the police court for non-sup-
port, and had three times been brought
into the district court for failing to pay
his wife temporary alimony ordered by
the court. The court will hear argument
as to whether the evidence is sufficient
to establish cruelty; but has already
evidenced an inclination to the afirma-
tive side of the question.

These are all Democrats, and Lind APP
pointees, excepting Messrs. Sprague ans
Palm, who were appointed by Gov. Van
SAINT last year. They-will doubtless lie
named for the two-year term, and it is
likely that two or three of the Democrats
will be named to give the minority rep
resentation. There is only one Democrat
hold-over out of the nine, j. G. McKib-
bin, of st. Paul.

AN EvENTFUL DAY.

When Coffee Left the Household.
ST never began to use coffee until after
I began teaching school, then a good,
motherly old dame served such nice cof-
fee that she got me into the way of
drinking it.
Inside of a year I became a wreck
from insomnia and nervous prostration
Every afternoon I was so drowsy and
filled with apprehension that would
have crying spells without knowing
why.
Il laid around the house in misery.
ana was misery to every one else.
Once in while a friend would tell me
that coffee was the cause of my trouble
I reasoned with them that I only had
one cup at breakfast, and that was not
enough. to cause the trouble, but I found
that was the secret-that one cup of cof-
fee.
ut was an eventfuI day in our house
hold when I quit coffee and started maxi
ing Postum. 1 followed the directions
and the result was wonderful; no other
words express it. The Postum Coffee
was of a rich, beautiful color and when
cream was added looked as delicious as
it tasted.
"a doctor who was in the house tasted
the Postum and said that it was equal
to the best Mocha and Java, then quick
~ luI11Su away dS was 1QcOTn-
prehensible. He suspected that there
was coffee in it, but I have been assured
of the absolute purity of Postum, and
have confidence in it.
Nothing ever tasted better to me than
that first, well-made cup Of Postum, and
never since have I tasted coffee, and I
now look back with horror upon the
sickness it caused. We began, very
quickly. to see the difference between
my condition under Postum and under
common coffee. I lost that feeling of
despair and restlessness which Cypress
ed me every afternoon and l began to
sleep like a baby. Postum must be
given the credit for all my Improvement.

court to release him from a marriage

lived with the woman.

has filed an answer to the complaint in
which she denies that she caused the
plaintiff in the case to be arrested to
compel him to marry her, or that any
duress or intimidation were used. On
her behalf it is stated that the plaintiff
was advised of the situation by the mag
istrate before whom her cause was pend
ing, and that he willingly acknowledged
his responsibility and agreed to make
reparation by marriage 1t isNalleged in
the complaint that with the exception of
her association with Kirby, the defend
ants life and conduct were irreproach-
able.
