HIS WIFE WORTH FIVE DOLLARS
Woman Objects to Being Sold for
Ono tenth Valuation. go

CHICAGO, Aug. 11.-Mrs. Anna Ka-
lusna of Evanston, who was sold by
he'd husband, Antonio Kalusna, to An
tone Stephanlac for IS after eight
months welded life, did not object
strongly to being disposed Of as chat
tel until she heard that her husband
held the furniture at $50. This dis
elimination stirred her anger and she
caused the arrest of her husband.
When she learned that her personal
valuation was rated at only one
tenth of that of the little furniture they
possessed, she fatty refused to ac-
company the purchaser, wherepuon her
husband beat her and drove her from
the house.
Mrs. Kalusna is quite comedy, is 10
years old, consequently the husband
had no trouble in finding a buyer, but
he still has the furniture. Kalusna ex-
plains that he was tired of married
life and that IS was a fair valuation
for his wife. He is amazed that any
one should interfere in his business
affairs.

It May Prove a Safeguard Against the
Operations Of the Dishonest.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 11.-Before
leaving for his vacation Postmaster
General Cortelyou directed the is
suance of a new form of money order
which 1t is believed Will be proof
against alteration in the hands of forg-
ers. The department has been greatly
annoyed by the operations of persons
who purchase money orders for small
amounts and raise them. passing them
on merchants after office hours. AL
though the direct loss falls on those
who accept the orders, the department
refusing to cash them except as orig
inally drawn, there mas been a heavy
indirect expense involved in the pur-
suit, arrest and conviction of the Of
tenders.
The form adopted will be issued as
soon as the new plates can be pre-
pared and other necessary prelimi-
naries in the way of arrangements can
be made.

mers woman, who Is young and strik-
ingly handsome. went on the stand
and told the jury the story of her life.

above reproach, but said Cauthen had
given her the diamonds in an effort to
induce her to give up Rankin and go
with him. The jury believed her
story, returned a verdict of not guilty
in her case and, on finding that the
prosecution was malicious, assessed
the costs, amounting to over $1,000,
against Cauthen. who is in Jail await

SchOOl-I.and Graft.

There is going TO be rattling OF
bones among the officials who have
anything to do with the sale of school
lands. It Is estimated that the state
has lost over s10OO,OOO by the loose
method of handling school lands. This
administration wants to stop the leak.
Under the present law the minimum
price per acre is SIPS. and the land
usually goes for that price. Then the
local authorities get good portion
Of that amount for fees. They have a
way of running up expenses that eats
up the receipts. The state practically
gets nothing. This graft has run its
course. It's days are numbered.
