DO0rORS MISTAKES

Are said often to be buried six feet under

their family physicians, suffering, as they
imagine, one from dyspepsia, another from.

tration, another with pain here and there,
and In this way they present alike to
themselves and their easy-going or over
busy doctor, separate diseases, FOR which
he, assuming them to be such, prescribes
his pills and potions. In reality, they are
ail only symptoms caused by some uterine
disease. The physician, Ignorant Of the

FARMERS
In FAVOR
OF CHANGE
Milton Man Wants Time OF
Holding School Meetings
Month Earlier

Representative Steen, of Umatilla,
is being besieged by letters from A.
E. Troyer, a member of the board of
school directors of Milton, to intro
duce a bill to change the date of the
annual meeting of district school
boards from June to May. Mr..
Steen has the matter under consider
alton, and will not make final de-
cision until he has consulted with the
other members of the legislature.
Mr.. Troyer says that the farming
element generally, and particularly
of that section of the country, are
too busy with their spring farm work
to be able to attend the school meet
ing in June, but that, If the time be
changed one month earlier. a full
and satisfactory attendance of school
patrons will be secured. Mr.. Steen
placed the matter before State Super
intendent Ackerman, who failed to
see the benefit derived in a change,
and Mr.. Steen so informed Mr.. Troy
er, who, however, insists that 1t will
be great benefit to many, and, since
it will not be a detriment to a single
district, 1t should be placed before
the legislature for consideration.

President Evans Of Dsfunct Seymour
Bank Brings Suit.

Bank Brings Suit.
Corydon, June Aaron Evans,
president Of tho wrecked Farmers and
Drovers' bank OF Seymour, filed two
suits with the clerk Of the district
court. One Of these suits was against
John G. Phillips, formerly president
OF the bank and the other is against
John c. Calhoun, former stakeholder.
The suits are practically the same with
the exception Of the amount Of money
involved. The suit against Phillips is
for s1o,4O0 and that against Calhoun
is for $4,000. In his petition Mr.. Ev-
ans says:
"That on or about the 29th day OF
December, 1905, the defendant Phil
lips was the owner Of one hundred and
four shares of the capital stock Of the
Farmers and Drovers' bank; that on or
about that day he sold the same to the
plaintiff, Evans; that to Induce the
plaintiff Evans to purchase said shares
OF stock the defendant represented to
the plaintiff that the bank was In good
and solvent condition and that the cap
ital stock was In no way impaired,
when in truth and in face the bank
was insolvelt and its capital stock
impaired and worthless; that the de-
PENDANT was there and had been Tor
months prior president of the bank"
The suit is to have the court declare
the sale OF the stock rescinded and
that the defendant be made TO return
the purchase money. The two suits
amount to $13,400, but that will not be
ALL The stockholders will be required
to put up in cash the full amount OF
what this stock was. SO the owner OF
the shares will have to pay s1s,4oo
more, and together with the original
costs and interest will make the
amount somewhere in the neighbor-
hood Of $4,000. In his petition Evans
claims that Phillips ana Calhoun
knew the condition of the bank when
the stock was sold. They unloadeo
all their stock on Mr.. Evans.

Mason City, June 4.-On the ground
OF neglect, Mrs. Evelyn Humphreys
Palmer. wife OF Charles Edward Pal
mer, a wealthy mine owner Of zaca-
teas, Mexico, secured q divorce in the
district court here on the grounds Of
cruel treatment. The story she re-
lated on the witness stand was one OF
shattered hopes of happy welded
life which she dreamed would be
among the flowers and the romance OF
Old Mexico, with riches and friends.
Instead she says she was locked up in
an old prison-like building, surrounded
by a wall twenty feet in, height.
around which paced two Mexican
guards. These guards, who were for
the purpose Of protecting her husbands
property, were her only COMPANIONS
save when her husband was at home
and then she said he was often intoxi-
Gated.
Mrs. Humphreys Palmer was Ma
son City girl who moved in the best
OF society, and when she married
Charles Palmer, about three years ago,
every one said she had made a good
match. She testified that her husband
would not allow her to go with him
on any of his business trips, nor would
he accompany her to the city Plaza.
where the fashion of a town Of 10000
appeared almost every evening to hear
the bapd, nor would be accompany her
to the theater. She was unable to con-
verse in the Mexican language and
with no English speaking friends near,
her life was unbearably lonesome.
/ Mrs. Palmer gave a graphic account
Of the Mexican people. whom she
styled "as greasy and indolent" Mrs.
Palmer relates that her husband spent
most OF his time at the Casino. mems
club and did not get home till late at
night, when he was usually intoxi-
Gated. This finally broke her health,
and one day she decided to come north.
In private car, with her physician,
DR.. Taube, she started. At San An
tonic, Texas, she met her husband,
who was returning from a business trip
to New York. He refused to allow
her to go farther, but her physician
persuaded him that If she was de-
tanned she would be permanently brok-
en- In health.
Shortly after her arrival in Mason
City, a little daughter was born, who
came in today for a large share Of the
alimony, and is to get an ample al
lowance until eighteen years OF age
from her rich father. Her father is
given the privilege of seeing his child
whenever he desires, and must be kept
constantly aware OF her whereabouts
and health. Mrs. Palmer was on the
stand most Of the day. and recited her
story in nervous and rapid, but glow
ing manner. She will make her home
here with her mother.
