HleO Prince

Measuring 161a hands and
weighing about 1900 pounds, is a
seal brown horse of extraordinary
speed power and substance. In har-
ness he is a prince of princes, and
everywhere he is perfectly kind
and tractable. As he inherits all
the grand qualities of his ancestors
back to the fourth generation, he
transmits them with marked uni
formity to all foals. If you want
speed and fine action, with the
size, style, finish and good man
ners which make the roadster or
the coacher that demands the high
dollar in every market, breed to
Higo Prince.

AAVs otAASOu III wi Wallis w OuAOo-
day, having in custody Mr.. Hanson.
A charge of insanity was made
against Hanson by his wife. She
charges him with threatening to
burn the house also that he has
beaten her and has threatened to
kill her. In the examination it was
developed that Mrs. Hanson, who
was formerly Mrs. Post, was possess
ed of violent temper; also that she
was inclined to boss her husband.
Hanson denies having beaten her
or having made any Of the threats
with which she charges him. On
the contrary he asserts that when
her temper rose he always walked
out of hearing distance or meekly
listened to it all. Mrs. Hanson is
described as being very muscular,
weighing $50 pounds and fully able
to defend her expressed views. Mr.
Hanson said she was very Jealous
and also accused him of intimacy
with other women. He admits hav.
ing spasms. AS there was No sub
stantial ground for the charge oi
insanity the decree was not grant
ed, but a promise was secured from
Hanson that this episode would in
no way canse him to offer violence
to his wife. He said when he ar.
rived home he would pack up and
leave. He also stated that there
would be no trouble about the divi.
sion of the property as all was ir
her name.
