The Bill states that the plaintiff was mar
ried to the defendant on the 9Th day of No
vember, 1898; that no children were born to
them as the result of said marriage; that
during all of the time that the plaintiff lived
with the defendant the defendant treated
her with great cruelty, harshness and bru

support or maintenance since said time.
The Bill further charges that after the O.

WAS ROBBED OF $500.
ID. B. Hines Made Drunk and Beaten
I'd ut Hutchinson.

Hutchinson, Aug. 22.-With his
head badly beaten up and in a semi
unconscious condition, man who
gives his name as D. B. Hines
was found near the Rock Island depot
about $50. o'clock at night. He was
taken to a hospital, where he said that
he was held up and robbed by a gang
who had followed him all day and had
got him drunk. This morning he
claimed that he had $500 on him.
The assault took place just south of
the Rock Island tracks and east of the
Kelly mill. A short time after the af-
fair, Hines regained consciousness and
wandered over to the Rock Island de-
pot, where he was found and an am
bulance phoned for.
At the hospital, the injured man
gave his name as West. He further
said that he was a bridge builder and
had come here with considerable
money. He fell in with a gang of
men who, after getting him drunk,
took him to a dark and out of the way
place. He said that they were walk
ing along when his companions sud-
denly turned on him and began rain
ing blows upon his head.
This morning he was able to go to
the police station, where he was close
ly questioned. To the police he said
that his name was Hines. He further
more didn't seem to remember much
about the affair of last night, but still
claimed that he was robbed.

Der of the legislature from Ford county,

ever since he was a boy.
Il do not believe that the effort of the
Coffeyville bankers to have Dalton kept
forever in prison should receive the sup
port of the bankers of the state,' said
Mr.. Beeson. I'VE are supposed to have
outgrown the idea of putting a man in
prison and keeping him there indefinite

Gates that Dalton would be good citi-
zen if he were released from prison"
Mr.. Beeson says that he doesn't know
what will be the outcome of the political
situation.
IF Fitzgerald is a candidate for gov
ernor," he said, I'VE will be for him. He
would make a splendid governor. But
1t seems that the man as candidate for
governor who just fills the bill hasn't
been mentioned yet. Stubs seems to
be talked about more than oth,n's. But
the situation is still very much shot to
pieces, and the prospective candidates
are all sparring for openings.
I'VE have splendid corn prospects out
in Ford county, and the wheat turned
out better than anybody expected it
would. We have reason to feel very
good about our condition"

CANAL BEGUN AT CAPE COD.
Work Is Started on the Project After
200 Years of Agitation.

Buzzard's Bay. Mass. Aug. 22.-The
first shovelful of dirt of the Cape Cod
canal was thrown yesterday by Will
lam Barclay Parsons of New York.
chief engineer. The spot chosen for
breaking the ground is in Sycamore.
There was little ceremony.
The route of the canal is from Sand
witch in Massachusetts bay, through
Bournedale and Bourne to Buzzard's
Bay. The plans for a canal across Cape
Cod date back 200 years.
The canal across Cape Cod will cut
the distance from New York to Boston
and stop the rough trips around the
cape. There is a heavy freight traffic
by water between the two cities. The
water passenger traffic now goes prin-
cipally by the Fall river route, that
is by water from New York to one of
the Long Island New England towns,
either Fall River or Providence, and
then by rail the rest of the way to
Boston. The canal through Cape Cod
probably will mean the extension of the
water route of the Fall River line from
New York to Boston. Many of the
freight boats which ply between Bos-
ton and New York now carry pasSen-
gers, but the service is Indifferent.

TRAFFIC MANAGER FINED.
He Was Not Using Proper Tenders on
His Cars

Los Angeles, Aug. 22.-Traffic Man
ager Mcmillan of the Huntington cleo
trio lines of this city. was today fined
$500, or 300 days in Jail for operating
cars without a proper fender. The mo-
torman and conductor of the car were
also fined 500 or 100 days in Jail. An
apDeal was taken and Immediately fol-
lowing this a deputy district attorney
with a squad of police commenced ar
resting motormen and conductors of
cars not properly equipped with
tenders. Eight men were arrested and
Immediately admitted to bail. The dis
trict attorney announced that he would
continue to make arrests daily and
would tie up all the interurban lines
of the Huntington system, unless the
fender ordinance is obeyed.
The fight between Huntington and
the city is due to the municipality
seeking to compel the use of a certain
fender.
