for an absolute divorce from his wile

The charge Of feloniously Attempting 10
shoot his wife was modified to Il srcnt
extent when tho case was gone into
Yesterday, and the defendant was con-
yonvicted upon the charge of prOnliscu-
ously shooting near highway, At the
close range at which Tho shorts were
fired, it did not appear plausible that
the accused could have missed his ma rls
had he really have intended killing his
wife. 1t was generally believed that he
shot more 10 frlehtcn than TO wound.
Justice Crutchheld fined Mr.. Chittendcn
80 and costs and required security In
the sum OF Sl,clb for his good behavior
for twelve months, The fine was paid

There is no doubt that Mr.. Chittender

PASSED. ON A
SIGN W0l1Ah

The interesting question as to
whether a man is liable under the
federal statutes for tampering with
money when he succeeds In passing
a bill of an old bank has recently
been decided by Secret Service Oper-
alive B. w. Bell for United States
Marshal Baker in the case of one
Red" McKenna, now in custody at
North Yakima. Mr. Bell decided that
the state law providing against OBJ
tanning money under false pretenses
is about the proper method of reach
ing Red McKenna.
McKenna induced sick woman
named Frost to change a $50 bill.
The bill rendered was of an issue of
the Bank of Louisiana, unsigned by
the officers. While the face of the
bill should have warned any well
posted person, the back of the piece
of paper presented the red-gold color
so familiar on gold notes of the gov
eminent. Mr.. Bell holds that there
was no counterfeitinR in the case. but
that McKenna, knowing that the bill
was worthless, should be guilty of
getting the money under false pre-
lenses.
