WANTS DIVORCE SET ASIDE
ELLEN ELMENDORF SAYS SHE
WAS GIVEN NO NOTICE.
Separation Was Granted Woman's
Husband in 1s37-AIIeees That. :.
He Abandoned Her Years Ago.

Mrs. Ellen Elmendorf filed a motion
yesterday morning in the district court to
have a decree of divorce set aside which
was granted to j. H. Elmendorf In Sep
TENDER, 1887.
The divorce proceedings were COM
menced in May, 1887, and the defendant
claims no notice was ever given her or
any service of summons on her and that
she was not notified Of the pendency of
the trial. She also declares that she did
not appear, nor did she authorize any
one TO appear for her; that the appear
ance of w. A. Choughill as her attorney
was unknown to her.
She further states that she did not
know of the trial or that Judgment had
been rendered until a short time ago,
since which time she has, with all haste
possible, investigated the matter and pre-
pared to protect her rights.
She declares that had she been advised
of the tendency of the said action she
would have been prepared with a full
and complete defense to IT.
Mrs. Elmsndorf also AYERS that the
plaintiff was possessed of considerable
asks that this be divided if still in his
possession. Mr.. E!mendorf, it seems. is
at present In a soldiers home in the east
He is drawing a pension. The defendant
feels that she is entitled to a part of
this said pension for her support.
Besides the motion of Mrs. Elmendorf,
several affidavits have been filed In the
case; one by her daughter, Mrs. Krem-
mer, who says that prior to her mar
Rage, twelve years ago. she lived with
her mother and that since that time the
mother has lived with her. She states
that her father abandoned them without
any cause whatever and that her mother
was not notified of the action which had
been brought against her and they knew
whatever of il. Several neigh
hors also make affidavits TO the same
effect.

Silnga For Fattening Steers.

Prof. Soule, of the Tennessee sta
ton, says: We had 16 grades Short
horn steers on feed; in $50 days we
made a gain of LAP pounds, or a daily
average of 2,40 pounds per steer. This
is a good gain for average feeding.
Any man can MAKE good gains with
silage if fed properly. In addition to
silage we fed some cotton-seed meal
as a means of finishing. There is no
question of the feeding quality of corr
at the finish, but do not believe that
it would be or is advisable to feed it
throughout the whole period. We have
found corr silage to be cooling as a
%roughage. We GRIND our corn and
cobs into a fine meal, and this works
well with silage as a feed. We feed
cotton-seed meal, but the hogs do not
follow the cattle. We fed as high as
10 pounds of cotton-seed meal to these
steers on silage without any evil eff
fects on the steers, but l do not believe
this would be possible with any other
%roughage but silage."

MYSTERY IN HOLLOW VOICE.
Government Engineer Has a Weird
Experience Of Simple Ex-
PLANTATION.

Capt. Charles l.. Potter, the United
States engineer in Duluth, Mimi, was
sitting at his desk busy with some fig
ures a few days ago, when he heard a
hollow. sepulchral voice in the room.
He glanced around through curiosity
and observing that the doors were closed
and he was entirely alone, he became
doubly interested. Again he heard the
voice.
1t sounded like that of some invisible
being trying to attract attention. The
voice seemed to come from behind his
desk, and at other times seemed almost
at his elbow. The captain located the
general direction from which the voice
was coming, and kept crowding his left
ear that way. He listened intently, and
the hollow, distant, tomblike voice was
heard to say: please hang up your re-
ceiver.",
Then the mystery was cleared up.
Capt. Potter smiled and hung up the re-
ceiver of the desk telephone, which he
had accidentally left off the hook, and
proceeded with his labors.

HORSE GOT HIS REVENGE.
By Pretending Friendship Tom Got
a Good Nip at the Hand of the
Man He Hated.

Tom, one of the team of horses used
by the San Francisco (Cal.) police de-
partment for patrol wagon service, is
a wise animal. Hour after hour every
day he stands near the city hall await
ing a summons to rush to the aid of
some person in need of medical at
tention or to bring to the prison some
malefactor. His waits are not te-
dious ones, for his idle time is spent
driver and other attaches of the prison
and hospital always have for him.
Some time ago he took particular de-
light in showing his dislike for a city
hall janitor, who, whenever he passed
the horse, hit him a resounding slap
on the back. Tom tried time and again
to kick his tormentor, but his harness
prevented him. Then the janitor COM
menced making peace overtures. He
brought the horse sugar, and OCCASION
ally a carrot, but the animal refused
to take them from the stick on which
the janitor held them out to him.
Then he tried other tempting morsels,
but still Tom was obdurate and refused
to make up. Then he apparently re-
Tented. and one morning greeted the
%janitor with a whinny of pleasure.
Emboldened, the janitor offeredthe horse
a lump of sugar on his hand. Tom ac-
cepted the lump of sugar. He also
took the janitor's hand and gave it a
squeeze between his strong teeth that
caused the %janitor to yell with pain.
Then Tom whinnied again, this time
with a great display of pleasure.

War.

A CERTAIN small boy asked his IA
n Their at the breakfast table a few
mornings ago: What caused the
wal between Japan and Russian" Many
people think boys ask too many ques-
lions, but how are they to learn things
II they do not? They cannot read and
understand things as their fathers can,
Besides, asking questions-especially
such excellent one as this boy asked
indicates that the interrogator-or boy
asking questions-has a good foundation
to start building his education on. Now,
this boys question was sent to the New
York Tribune. All the editors have to
say about the question is that they wish
he would ask an easier one. How is one
to tell about the causes of war, when
one does not know all of them? To be
sure, like two boys who have got into a
quarrel and have been called upon to
explain about it, each has his side to
give; but one cannot tell whether either
side has told all of the truth. Both
Japan and Russia have given their sides.
