DESERTED HUSBAND
GETS The CASH

Odd Case Of Retributive Justice to
Grand Forks Man Who Comes Into
Fortune Left BY His Erring Wife.
A special to the Herald from Los
Angeles, Cal, gives some interesting
information about the latest chapter
in what is generally known here as
the old Deming case By a decision
just handed down by the superior
court in Los Angeles the property &C
cumulated there by C. B. Deming, who
took his departure from Grand Forks
twelve years ago between two days,
and leaving behind a wife and numer-
Gus creditors, is taken from him and
awarded to the Grand Forks husband
of Mrs Bolton, the woman with whom
Deming was living in Los Angeles as
his wife. The property is estimated
to be worth about $4,000. The final
hearing in the case occurred in Los
Angeles a few days ago and attracted
much interest. Mrs Blackburn, Max
Stern and George Platky of this city
were among the witnesses In court.
Mr. Deming was put on the TACK for
about two hours. He testified that he
left Grand Forks in 1894, went to
Syracuse, n Y, where he met a Mrs.
Bolton. married her and then went to
Los Angeles. In order to avoid his
creditors there, it seems he did bust
ness there in his wifes name He en-
gagged in contracting extensively and
made some money. He also &C
cumulated considerable real estate all
of which was held in his wife's name
In the evidence introduced. however,
testimony was given to show that he
was not married 20 Mrs Bolton. Let
tiers were introduced by Mrs Rol1on's
husband here, Elvin Bolton, from
whom she had never been divorced,
and who was there as a witness in the
case, showing that Mrs Bolton was
continually begging to be taken back
to Grand Forks to her husband. When
Mrs. Bolton, who was claimed by Mr..
Deming as his wife, died in Los An
geles the property was all in her
name and MI. Deming has been en-
gagged ever since, now over a year, in
efforts to secure title to the property,
but without avail In the trial the
other day the judge, in the language
of witness of the scene roasted Mr.
Deming to a turn and practically told
him what kind of rascal he was"

STARK

This is March weather if you please.
Geo. Berg came in on the stage
Monday night on return from south
ern pleasure trip. These frequent
trips George takes may look suspic-
ious to some, but we think it may be
all right, as so far George has always
come back alone.
Monday night being little cold for
the skating party, was turned into a
surprise party on J. 3. Granville and
wife. The evening was spent in play
ing games and dancing.
John Hazelgrove's smiling coun-
tenance is again located in these
parts.
Dave Hagerdon moved onto his
claim this week and is making some
improvements on his dwelling. Can't
say whether this indicates the unex-
pected or not.
Mrs. A. S. Wilkinson and Children
visited at Stark Friday.
Granville Bros. had their new team
of oxen in town Tuesday. Our post
master says it made him think he
was back in Ohio.
Our postmaster informs US owing
to several requests, they will give one
more dance before spring, date being
Friday night, March 23d. Everybody
come and bring your girl, wife and
children, and please don't forget the
cake.
We were rather surprised as we
looked over the list of subscribers
taken by the postmaster for this
paper Bismarck Tribune) as the list
showed nineteen new subscribers. I!
there is any that want it send 81 tt

APPOINTMENT OF DELEGATES.
How They Will Probably be Distributed
AMONG the Counties.

Very soon after the passage of the
statehood bill, The Republican pub
lished a list showing the apportion-
ment of delegates from the various
counties in the territory, to the con-
stitutional convention, as near as the
list could then be arrived at with the
data at hand. The estimate was
made on the census of 1900.
The bill, as amended calls for the
making of the apportionment on the
vote of 1904 for delegate. to congress.
There being fourty-four delegates to
elect and the vote that year being
81, APO, the apportionment will natur-
ally be one delegate for every 4S7
votes or the largest fraction thereof.
On this basis the apportionment will
be as follows:
The copper era., 1906-07-05

Those who witnessed the last game
between Clifton and Morenci can
appreciate the humor of the Morenci
Leader, when it stated that Clifton
was given the game by the rank
decisions on the part of the umpire.
1t had not been the intention of the
ERA to say anything about the UNI
piring, because the Clifton team
really got the worst of it and but for
the removal of Long in. the last
inning there is no doubt but that Mo-
renci would have won the game at the
finish anyway. The Leader was not
accurate enough in its statement.
The double system of umpiring was
used for the game, one member of
each team acting, because nobody
would accept the position. Longwen
and Mackenvitch started out pretty
we'll, but at intervals it could be seen
that Mackenvitch favored his team
a little, but not enough to Justify a
roast from the local newspapers. In
the write-up of the Leader one would
infer that Longwell gave Clifton the
game, which is rank mistake, as
not one of his decisions were
questioned. He was fair and square
and showed that his heart was in the
right place, and it is not exactly
reasonable to suspect that Macken-
witch would give his team the worst
Of it. It does seem that the sporting
editor of the Leader would make it a
port them as they really are.
Sluggish base running is what lost
the game for the Morenci boys and
they know it themselves. When a
team can't win after getting four
teen hits against seven and three
errors against six, there is something
wrong with the playing. Morenci
has lost several such games this
season. Errors for Morenci at criti-
cal times and extra ordinary good
base running by the locals is what
secured the Clifton team the victory
in the last game. 1t was one of
those games which is hard to figure
out from the score. Morenci secured
the most hits, had less errors and lost
the game. OF course it is an easy
matter to blame the umpire as he is
rather unfortunate creature any
way. Uncalled for roasting of the
umpire" is the very reason why very
few people will consent to put them
selves up for a target. Base ball is
funny thing and the side that loses
always has a kick coming about the
umpire or something else. 1t is
seldom that people representing diff
ferent base ball sides see things in
the same light.

The killing of Stanford White in
New York City by Harry Thaw is the
sensation of the age. White was a
moral leper and disgrace to civil
ization and richly deserved the tate
which he received. Thaw, however,
cannot be regarded in the light of a
hero. He well knew the character of
the woman over whom the killing
occurred long before he married her.
Still, she was his wife, and after her
marriage to Thaw she appears to
have Conducted herself with pro-
priety. The killing of White,
together with the general publicity
which it has brought to his class of
lecherous rascals, ought to have
purifying effect even in New York.
where such conduct is usually con-
dOned.

FIVE members of the Toledo, Ohio,
ice trust have been sentenced to pay
a fine of $4,000 each and to serge one
year each in the county workhouse.
The antitrust law in Ohio seems to
be working all right. Prosecutions
against all kind of trusts will at
once follow in the Buckeye state,
and the chances now are that all
trusts will soon be driven out of the
state. Ice is now sold in Toledo at
prices prevailing before the trust
was formed.
