In order that the Kelly case might
have proper hearing before the grand
Jury. County Attorney Whitney sought
to have Mrs. Kelly brought to the court
house to act as a witness. A subpoena
was issued for her from the sheri1l >

county attorney had had 1t reported to
him that Mrs. Kelly had left town ana
two different officers were sent TO
make sure that she was not in hiding.

Lawrence Allertz came over from
Waterloo Tuesday in company with
Attorney Meares and filed new charges
against his wife. The charge was for
adultery. The same charges We're pre-
ferred against her by him a few
months ago and<she was put under
arrest and placed in Jail at that time.
At the request Of the husband the
charges were withdrawn and Mrs. AL
lertz was given her liberty. She had
been working about town since and
had recently taken a job in the laun-
dry She was Immediately arrested
and put in Jail. She plead guilty to
the charges and is now serving a

Homer.
Contractor Sprague, who secured
the work of constructing the Huffman
drainage ditch near Homer, has given
The Job up as bad piece of business
and has left the county, abandoning
the big ditcher in the drain just as 1t
set when last used month or so ago.
A letter received by County Attorney
Blake, however, from Ward Bros, of
Audubon, states that Sprague had
turned his contract over to them and
that they will be glad to complete the
work if the arrangement is satisfactory
to the board Of supervisors 1t had
been feared until recently that
Sprague had gone away leaving the
county badly mixed up on the whole
matter. Sprague had drawn something
over $1,000 on his contract, and had
not been placed under bond. He went
away, leaving the work unfinished and
no one knew where he had gone nor
has anyone heard anything from him.
OF course the big ditcher, which to all
intents and purposes he had abandon
ed was worth more than enough to
have remunerated the district for the
| money Sprague had drawn. 1t is alleg-
ed to have cost $4,000 new and is
probably worth $4,000 or $1,000 today.
