that time defendant seduced ner and
persuaded her to leave plaintiff. That
shortly after said meetings. through
said defendants influence said Katie
Honr caused a complaint to be issued
against said plaintiff charging said
plaintiff with being a person Of nm
sound mind and insane.
Plaintiff further AYERS that he was
dismissed from that charge.
He further AYERS that at that time he
did not know that it had been his
brother, the defendant, who had caused
the mind of his wife to change against
him. but that he had become cognizanr
of the facts later. That his wife, after
being Influenced by the defendant, had
made his life such burden that he had
been compelled to leave her; that she
sued him for a divorce, upon the reconI-
mendation and influence of the said de-
PENDANT, but that this was not granted.
The petition is a lengthy one and sets
up numerous errors on the part of the
defendant as cause for the damage
asked for by the destroying of his MONT.
Plaintiff also AYERS that said defendant
had always pretended to be such a great
Christian, that plaintiff did not suspect
him at the time of being the cause of
alternating the affections Of his wife and
running his home, but that he found out
these facts later. He therefore asks for
49, 900 damages and the cost of the
suit.
The suit will come up at the next
term of court

1.-THE chief feeling that my apDear-

Los Angeles, Cal, Oct 17-Frankie
Neil of San Francisco, champion ban
tam weight pugilist, and Johnny Regain
of Brooklyn, fought 20 rounds to a
draw last night at Hazards pavilion.
It was one of the fastest fights ever
witnessed here. Both were willing to
mix it at all times and the result was
that the referee had plenty of work to
do in getting beween them. Neil

oring time and again to land his left
ripping uppercut, but only once did it
land fair and flush. 1t put Regain down
and he took the count to get the rest.
He got up Immediately and put Neil
down with a terrific left on the jaw.
Regan's best blow was a right upper
cut, and he repeatedly landed it on
Neil's face and body. Neil started ev-
cry round with a rush and several
times carried Regain through the ropes
But each time he good naturally as
sisted the Brooklyn lad to his feet.
After the fourteenth round Neil

Big Suit Between Relatives
Comes Up at Fort Scott.
John HOun Wants $4,000
Damages from His Brother.
WRECKED HIS HOME.
Claims His Wife's Affections
Were Alienated.
Charges in the Case Are Quite
Sensational.

Fort Scott, Oct. 17.--Another big dam
age suit has been commenced in the
district court by J. NJ. Humphrey, as
attorney for John V. Honn, against
Thomas G. Honn. his brother. He asks
for $4,000 for the alternating of the af-
fections of his wife and also for running
his home by turning his wife against
him and causing her to become SO that
plaintiff could not live with her, where
she had. prior to his brothers alienat-
ing her affections. been true and low
ing wife, and they had lived happily to-
gether.
This suit was filed in the district
court last year, but was dismissed
from court for some reason. At that
time he asked for 900 damages, but
he did not set out as much of the par
ticulars in the case as he does now.
Now, however, he only asks for $15,-
600. The case is quite a sensational
one as far as the charges set out by
the plaintiff are concerned In the
petition the plaintiff AYERS that he and
his wife were married up in Iowa and
that they lived on farm near MS
old homestead for several years and
that they got along happily together
but that his brother sWore that he had

WHEAT LOOKS WELL.
Conditions Are Favorable at Hays
Experiment. Station.

Hays City, Oct. IA rain of Ia
inches during the past three days has
not only insured a good stand of the
wheat Sown, but will make it very easy
to finish seeding which is already vel
underway. In good many cases people
thought it too dry for seeding, and were
stopping the drills, fearing that there
would only be sufficient moisture to
start termination, but not keep it going
so that the stand would be poor. Such
instances as these are where the ground
has been plowed and left without any
subsequent treatment.
The wheat sown on the experiment
station was all coming up nicely. This
can only be due to the ground being
properly treated after blowing; harrow
ing and being gone over with subsur-
face disk. This presses the ground down
on the stubble and prevents the mois-
ture from escaping.
Owing to the rush of work a great
deal of wheat is being planted in stub
BILE without blowing or disking, and as
there was a very heavy stubble, and
drills cannot do very good work, a crop
could hardly be expected.
While the rain was of benefit to the
wheat, it has done a great deal of dam
age to the feed. the early frosts max
ing it necessary to be cut early. 1t was
left in the swath or windroW as there
has been no time to stack it.
Cattle in the pasture are looking fine,
and dry weather UP to this time has
cured the buffalo grass which will make
it good feed all winter. There is an
abundance of it on the ground. Very
few ranges are eaten close 50 there was
an extra amount Of growth this year.
