LOSES HIS BRIDE AT ALTAR.
Minnesota Widow Had Accepted the
North Dakotan.

GLENDALE, N. D., Feb. 17.-Her-
man arouse, owner of valuable farm
not far from this place. is one Of the
bet-known men to courts and attorneys
in the southern part of North Dakota
for seldom is calendar made up that
does not contain his name Some few
years ago a separation took place be-
tween Krouse and his wife, and since
then he has lived on the farm and held
the belt as a litigant.
Some months since neighbor pro-
posed to Krouse to help him back into
matrimonial harness. seeing his III
success at home. He proposed to in
troduce him to a German widow of
Meteor, MINI. He did SO, and the wild
ow who owned good farm and was
well-to-do, after visit from Krouse
made a trip to Glendale and the
Krouse farm, agreed to sell out, come
to North Dakota and become Mrs.
Krouse
She returned to Minnesota and sold
her property. Procuring a license in
Ellensdale Krouse went to Hector on
the day of sale, hoping. to return a
married man. To his surprise he
learned he would have to have the
knot tied in Dickey county, North Da-
kota. So mis- fiancee, Mrs. Lizzie Rel
del, preceded him to Ellensdale, and
he remained to finish loading the car
and come as an emigrant. He billed
the car in his own name and came
here with it the first of the week
Great was his Consideration when he
found, not a willing bride, but an en-
ragged. insulted and stubborn objector,
already engaged in a determined fight
against him for alleged deception and
injury.
Mrs. Reidel's coming in advance had
been fatal to Krouse. She mad learned
that he was of a quarrelsome DISPOSE
ton, and that he had divorced wife.
Mrs. Rebel is a devOut Lutheran, and
would not marry man with a di-
vorced living wife. \She determined
to return at once to her farm at Hec-
tor. She had been deceived, for Krouse
wrote her that his wife had been dead
ten years.
Krouse, too, was obstinate. He mad
billed the car to himself and Agent
Dickey of the Milwaukee could not
release it without the bill of lading,
which Krouse would not surrender
Lawyers were employed and actions
and counter-act filled the air, the
sheriff's fees growing wonderfully.
1t is now said Mrs. Reidel has pos
session of the bill of lading, and will
start at once on her return Journey
a disappointed woman and a financial
loser to the extent of $3.50.

Corbett's Last Chance.

Considering Corbett's style, how
ever, it must be admitted that if he
cannot beat Nelson in the coming bat
tie he might as well retire from the
top-notch class. Nelson's only nope of
winning is by boring in and keeping
at it until he lands his man. That is
the way he has gained all his import
ant victories-it is the way he stopped
Corbett last time. He will fight that
way when they meet again, and if
there is any style of fighting that
Corbett can put away with ease it is
to him.
There is every indication that he will
be right when ne meets Nelson, if it
is possible for him to get right again.

big house. No city in the country
sends out as poor information regard
