A False Alarm

The person who furnishes the San

son Weekly under the non de plume
of ''Honus" is getting a reputation for
unrelia bility that is something unique.
One of his latest false alarms was an
item to the effect that Mrs. A. C. Pratt
wife of ex-Surveyor General Pratt
would bring suit for divorce from her
husband on the ground of desertion.
The assertion brings forth an indig

forms the Chronicle that her husband
never deserted, and that she has nc
idea of getting a divorce. Mrs. Pratt
is now stenographer in the employ
