THE WON EN- WIN.
Supreme Court Says They Can Vote
Expenditure of Funds.

Des Moines, July S.-The supreme
court decided in favor of women re-
garding the voting on the erection of
a new city hall here. The city officials
put questions on the ballot on the
erection of city hall and on increas-
ing the tax levy, and claimed the wom-
en- could not vote because no question
of issuing bonds was submitted. The
court holds it is all the same thing and
that unless the statute is repealed
women can vote on such questions 1t
holds that the word election as used
by the constitution to males means
elections referred to in the constitution
and the choice of officials, and voting
on bonds is not an election as defined
by the constitution and is subject to
regulation by the legislature.
The court also held constitutional
and legal the consolidation of the

WOMAN WHO SOLD MULE HERE
MAKES QUEER STATE
MENT IN COURT.

Ottumwa, July S.-An interesting
document was filed with the clerk of
the district court this morning when
the petition in equity for divorce was
filed in which Ellag Daggett seeks le
gal separation from William Daggett
the man to whom she was wed De
cember 10. 1861.
From the claims made by the plain
tiff, Mrs. Daggett, in her petition, II
would seem that the domestic life OF
this couple was not harmonious, to
say the least. The plaintiff alleges
cruel and inhuman treatment, even
being subjected to ignominy at times
to such an extent as stealing a mule
and being arrested for cruelty to ami.
mails when the defendant caused her
to steal mule and take it to Oska
loosa, where she sold it. She was ar
rested and incarcerated in the Mahas.
ka county jail-his fault, she states
And again the petition recites that
the defendant hired a horse from
George Harris at Abba and after driv,
ing it nearly to death, caused the
plaintiff to take 1t back to the livery
stable, where she was arrested on
the charge of cruelty to animals and
placed in the Monroe county Jail for
nine days.

MILLING TEST OF w. S. C.
HYBRID

An important discovery has been
made IN milling test of one of the
new hybrid wheats propogated by the
Washington State College experiment
station. This is the first milling test
made, and it proves that the wheat is
better for flour purposes than little
club, which is regardeud by millers as
netX in value to bluestem. the highest
quality wheat grown in the northwest.
The wheat tested is what is known
as No. l43, - and is a cross between
white track and little club. 1t has
proved one of the best yielding va
rleties grown in the northwest, the
yield this year near Pullman being
from 81 to 55 bushels an acre. The
grain is plump and of fine appearance,
but its flour qualities were unknown
until the test just made, and the
results have been an agreeable sur
prise to the college department of
agriculture.
After supplying hundreds of farmers
with seed the department had 100
bushels left and took this to the Pull
man flour mills, whore it was made
into flour. A lot of the flour was sent
to the dormitory at the college and
made into bread. The result was
pleasing. 1t took more water than
little club, and yielded fine quality
OF -four almost as good as that made
from bluestem. thus proving the new
wheat one of the most valuable va
rieties grown in the west.

SPEAKER SHIFTED HIS QUID.
This was Done So That No Partially
Gould Be Shown.


Doctor Hildreth in his Memoirs cf
the Early Settlers of Ohio" devoted
a chapter to Abraham Whipple of
Rhode Island. He was born in 1888,
and was one of the first to take hand
in the revolutionary war. In 1856 he
was elected representative to the
legislature from the town Of Cranston.
The advocates of the paper-money
system We're then in power, and had
chosen Othniel Gorton, a clumsy old
man, for speaker.
GortOn was in the habit of keeping
a large quid of tobacco in one side OF
his mouth, which pressed out one Of
his cheeks. Most of the debates were
on the opposite side of the hall from
that on which Commodore Wbipple
sat, and the speakers face was com
monty turned that way.
Once in the course of the debate
Whipple had cogitated a speech, which
he waited for an opportunity to de-
liver. At last out of patience. he rose
and called, Mr.. Speaker" The speak
er, whose face was turned the other
way, did not hear him. He raised his
voice to its utmost, Mr.. Speaker"
Gorton started, and turning to the
commodore, said, Il hear you" There
upon Whipple began;
Il wish, Mr.. Speaker, you would
shift your quid of tobacco from your
starboard to your larboard jaw. that il
might give your head a cant this way
so that you could sometimes heal
something from this side of tn,
house"
Then he went on with his speech.
