ed in by at least ten orators. 5. O..
DAVIS. a prominent Farmers L nion
man of Shawnee. and Lee Cruce OF

of the day. Mr. DAVIS. spoke on issues
now before the farmers and condi-
tons which confront them. His
speech was full Of good advice for the
farmers and praise for the work Of
the Farmers Union.
Mr.. Cruce touched upon the ware
house which It Is proposed will ne
erected in Ardmore. He confined his
speech to a nonpartisan one, but also
touched upon the fact that all should
support the nominee of the party.
He made good impression He also
spoke Of the action of the farmers
in taking stock in the warehouse ~

ised that he would give the measure

Huntington, w. Va, Aug. 21.-
Mrs. Martha Vernatt, As years old
and widow, thinks A. P. Adkins, a
twentieth street merchant, has
blighted her fair hopes and affections
to the extent of $4,000, and for this
amount she sued in the Cabell county
court~this afternoon.
The wife of Adkins died about a
year ago. Mrs. Bernatt says that it
was only a few weeks until he began
to make display OF affection that
caused her to give her matronly
heart into his keeping, she with
standing his urgent solicitations for
speedy marriage, by saying that
they should wait at least a year in
token Of respect to the dead wife.
The year was up just one short week
ago and on the date Adkins married
another woman, without even send
ing an excuse to his widow-fiance
These are some Of the statements
maae In the declaration and there
are more: " - "
Evening strolls for instance, the
silvery moon instilling loves young
dream into middle aged sedateness
(Adkins is about fifty);. passionate
declarations Of undying affection;
sworn statements to be true till
death do us part--never even to
look on the countenance of another
woman--and then to think, sobbed
Mrs, Vernatt, he never even told me
there was some one else. .,
Although Mrs. Vernatt is the
mother OF four grown children, her
appearance Is remarkably youthful
her eyes are blue, her bair brown.
She says that to do honor to the
courtship Of Adkins she let many
other good opportunities for the tax
ing up Of conjugal felicitation pass
and even completely dismissed other
suitors. And then to be treated that
way--she won't stand for it, that's
all.
The case will come to trial at the
next term Of the Circuit court.
