GET 7 CENTS A DAY

WayNvard Wife Allotted Nominal
sum AIimOny in superior Court.
The smallest amount ever awarded
for alimony, so far as the records of
recent years disclose, was awarded to
Rena Butler for the support of herself
and two minor children, in the Supe-
rior Court yesterday.
Fifty cents week is the ponderous
sum which the court, after exhaustive
and exhausting argument had, ordered,
decreed and adjudged should be paid to
the weaker vessel by the husband. Ben
Butler.
Ben maintained that Rena was an
obstreperous individual, of shrewdish
temperament, and said that if she were
the weaker vessel she shouldn't carry
so much sail. He said that he had
always sent her board money. but that
she had spent il for other purposes.
The court, after due elaboration and
circumspection, decided to give the
wife 50 a month as pin money alimony
The lawyer was allotted $40. which he
win receive insinstallments of so cents
a week. Ben declared after the trial
that when he entered the blissful state
of connubial existence he bit off more
than he could chew.

gle Bourquin, in which he has been

make whatever disposition of it they
saw fit.

undertake the trial. Counsel for the
defense then arose and said that he
was ready to proceed to trial.
Judge Barrow stated that he would
not think of keeping jury on the case
in the present hot weather for a week
He said that the case had taken week
last time, and ii would probably take
a week this time. On oct. 10, he said,
he would call the case. and at that
time counsel could, if they desired,
continue ii until the December term, or
have any preliminary matters disposed
OF. He suggested that if it were inn
possible to secure jury at that time,
that some agreement could be made
for trying the cause in another county.
