MOL|NEUX'S WIFE
MARRIED LAWYER
Who Aided Her In Get
ting a Divorce.

Chicago, Nov. 2.-Wallace d. Scott,
Sioux Falls, s. D., Blanche Chesebor-
ough, who also came from Sioux Falls,
were granted license this afternoon
to marry. Half an hour later they ap-
peared at the auditorium annex and
the gentleman registered: "Mr. and
Mrs. Scott, New York" They were
assigned to room 1856.
These two facts are indisputable,
but further information was unobtain-
able. No one could be found who knew
who had performed the ceremony. Mr..
Scott was reached by phone in his
room, but declined to be seen and to
all questioning relative to his mar
riage he returned the same reply: II
do not care to talk about the matter
at ALL"
Blanche Cheseborough Is the name
of the divorced wife of Roland b.
Molineux Of New York and Wallace d.
Scott Is the name of an attorney in
Sioux City, who in that city acted as
her attorney in securing her separation
from her husband.
Even before she had secured her di-
vorce, gossips' tongue connected her
name with that of her lawyer and it
appeared to be an open secret that an
attachment which had sprung up be-
tween the two, was an additional rea-
son for desiring speedy release from
the bonds which bound her to Roland
Molineux, and today's denoument is
supposed to be the elimination of the
romance which had its beginning In a
divorce court in South Dakota.

WEATHER AND CROPS.


This Weeks Weather Has Been I'M
favorable in All Localities.
The past week has been unfavorable
for crops. Up to the last few days it
was too cool and frequent frosts occur
red High winds were also prevalent
and the rainfall, except in the coast
counties and the Willamette valley, has
been scanty. Practically none fell in
the southern and the extreme eastern
sections of the state, and the ranges are
fast drying up. In the coast counties
and in the Willamette valley the pas
turage is excellent, and the flow Of
milk in the dairy sections is the best in
several years.
The frosts have done some injury to
fruit, but il is too early to determine the
extent Of the damage. Apples have un-
doubtedly suffered to quite an extent,
and complaints Of cherries dropping are
increasing. Prunes and pears promise
well and strawberries and other small
fruit will likely give full crops.
Spring sown grain is unusually back
ward and the fall sown is becoming ex-
ceedingly weedy in the Columbia river
valley, where the cold, drying W nds
have retarded growth. More rain is
needed in Southern Oregon, where the
corn crop is turning yellow and making
slow growth. No improvement has
been noted in the condition of hops;
some yards are promising, while others
spresent poor appearance. Rain is bad
ly needed in the Grand Ronde valley,
and the crops there are unusually back
ward but may yet show up we'll with
favnrn hla vvanthar conditions
