MRS. WILMERDINe STRUCK HIM
Commodore VanderbIt's Great Grand
dauuhter in Court.

New York, Dec. AFTER hiding
from her wealthy relatives and former
friends in New York society for sew
eral months, Mrs. Jack" Wilmerding,
great granddaughter of the late Com
modore Vanderbilt, yesterday made
known her whereabouts by having
Jim" Coates, who says she is his wife
according to the English common law,
arrested and arraigned in the Harlem
police court on a charge of ill-treat-
ment.
Coates is a large, blonde man,
heavily mustached, and nattily dress
ed, thirty.six years old and has thick
English accent He was arrested in
cheap little fiat over a grocery,
where the pair have been living for
about eighteen months.
The warrant was procured in the
name of Marie Coates" Under this
name the woman took the policeman
and pointed out "her husband" order
ing him arrested.

couldn't help it,"
She then began to weep, and threw
her arms around Coates neck.
ITS all right, old girl" Coates said.
Don't worry"
When the case was called in court
yesterday, the woman did not appear
to prosecute Coates, and he was dis
missed. Magistrate Kernochan said
he knew that Mrs. Wilmerding had
been confined several times in sanitar-
iums, and that he was convinced there
was no ground on which Coates might
be punished. Coates showed right
ear closely approaching the caulifow-
er stage, and he said it had been given
to him by his wife.
She hit me with an iron, Judge"
he explained. But she's not bad
girl and it is all right. She's sorry
now she hal me arrested"
Coates said he considered his alli-
ance with Mrs. Wilmerding a legal
one, although he admitted that Jack"
Wilmerding is suing her for absolute
divorce.
The case comes up in the supreme
court next week. In this suit Wilmer
ding charges the wiman with having
contracted a bigamous marriage in
1906 with Coates.

Gregory County News: Word has
been received in Dallas that Mae Mel.
ser, the holder of No. in the Trip
county land lottery, is soon to visit
Dallas. She will be a person keenly
sought by the real estate men of this
city for the reason that every one OF

made an attempt to come to Dallas but
found that the river was impossible,
and she returned home for the pres
ent and has sent word that she will
make another attempt soon.
While it is not positively known

Dallas before, it is stated that she has
many admirers here among the bache-
lor crowd, and that she may rest as.

Burns Up in His Bed.

Newman Grove, Neb., Dec. AL
fred Westelin, a retired farmer was
burned to death in his home here by
overturning a kerosene lamp onto the
bed in which he was lying.
Westelin had been drinking
of late and it is said was afflicted
with delirium tremens all day Tues
day. His neighbors undertook to
look out for him while he was on the
street during the day, and one of them
went to his house to fill a lamp be-
fore darkness set in. Later in the
evening Westelin babe the neighbor
goodbye, saying he was going to take
dose of medicine and would prob
ably die.
Mrs. Westelin, who is very feeble,
was awakened late at night by the eX-
plosion of the lamp and found her
husband wrapped in flames. She Sc
cured a bucket of water and dashed
it over him, but it failed to eX-
tinguish the flames. Another bucket
full was brought which Westelin him
self assisted in throwing over his
body. His wife then rushed to a
neighbours house for help and on re-
turning tainted before she could rem
der further assistance, A fire com
pany responded and found the bed
clothes and mattress afire. Their
efforts to get him out of the bed were
fruitless and after more water was
turned on Westelin was taken out
lead.
Westelin was about fifty-six years
old and was at one time an inmate OF
the dipsomaniac institute at Lincoln
The general supposition is that the
overturning of the lamp was accident.

II was commented on yesterday that
victory in the stewardship contest
among the Democrats went to the man
who had been longest a resident of
Norfolk. The three candidates in the
race when the decision was made have
all had a long residence in Norfolk to
their credit. Herman Gcrecke came
here in 1869 and was later the first
mayor of Norfolk He thus got the
advantage of Henry IIaase, who was
born here in 1871. Mr.. Haase has
served on the city council. John f.
Flynn, the third candidate, came to
Nebraska with his parents in 1866. The
following year the family left Omaha
and went to Platte county. In 1879
they came to Madison county. Mr..

AFTER BUTTER TRUST.
Federal Law Will be Invoked to Su-
press Restraint of Trade.

Chicago, Dec. 4-Oleomargarine
and the federal antitrust law may
both be used to defeat an attempt to
raise the price of butter 1t is assert
ed that local and eastern produce men
have combined to boost the price of
the household commodity to such a
point as to drive it from the tables of
many.
Manufacturers of oleomargarine,
who were at one time nearly put in
the down and out" class by the but
ter dealers, are said to be waiting for
the prospective rise of butter to flood
the market with their product and, by
taking advantage of those unable to
buy the pure creamery product, to
prove to them that oleomargarine is as
good as butter and cheaper.
1t is said that from 60000,000 to TO-
100000 pounds of butter are held in
cold storage, of which amount the Chi
cago warehouses hold about 25,000,O00
pounds. The present production in
the western country is said to be
meager Commission firms in Chi
cagO, Boston and New York and Elgin
are declared to be interested in the
so-called butter combine, which would
make it an interstate affair, and as
such come under the Sherman anti
trust law.
District Attorney Sims declared that
the federal authorities had never
made an investigation of combines
seeking to control the price of butter,
but that if such a combine was shown
to exist in restraint of trade it would
be prosecuted.

cash and the limited income pr wi
