Military Settlements.


Lieut.. Col John A. Hull and Major
Blanton Winship. of the Judge Advo
cate Generals Department, U. 8. A..
after ten days argument with the
farmers of Southern Massachusetts in
an attempt to settle up all the real
and alleged claims for damages made
against the United States Govern
ment as a result of the recent RED
and Blue" war In that state, arrived
in New York Sept. 4 to attend to
some pressing departmental work
pending another attempt to square
matters In the Bay State. The spot
cash settlement worked like a charm
In most cases. but In some Others
greedy farmers held back In the
nopes OF getting larger sums. The
farmers who had valid claims fol
damages were the exceptions rather
than the rule. They were easy to set
! tie with. and In most cases theil
claims were not exorbitant. II wa.
/ the fellow with the hazy claim tina
caused most of the trouble.

ed to life imprisonment for killing, on
June 2S, 1909, the first sergeant of
his company, George Heuber, while in
his bed in quarters at Fort Mills, Cor.
regidor Island. The court found that
the accused had been reduced from
quartermaster sergeant to second
class private in consequence OF re-
port made by the deceased that, on
being reprimanded for hardness at
meals, he had made diiiant reply
The result of brooding over this pun

In condition of excitement which, In
the judgment of the court, offers suf
ficient extenuation to justify some

for murder. "The accused, Thoma'

Two Interesting Relics.

The Navy Department has come in
to possession OF two interesting relies
of the fight between the Constitution
and the Guerrero. These are two
oil paintings, by some unknown paint
er, that were fastened as decorative
panels In the cabin of the Guerrero.
The canvases are OF the old-time,
hand-laid linen, looking as strong and
fresh as II made in the last few years.
The painting is crude and quaint. but
at the same time displays some de-
gree of artoistic attainment. The
scenes represent, In one, the temple
of Concordia at Segesti, and In the
other a temple supposed to be stand
ing near Naples. Italy. The pictures
are the gift OF Mr.. Isaac Hull Plat,
of New York city, a liIeal descendant
of Commodore Hull, who commanded
the Constitution.

DIVORCED AFTER YEARS
OF SPCECHLESS UNION

WHEELING, w. Va, March 27.-In the
court of common pleas at ST. ClairsrSlle,
Belmont county. Mrs. Elizabeth Howells
was given an absolute divorce from Dr.
J. o. Howells. of Bridgeport, on the
ground of desertion- The defendant did not
appear. The wedding. eight years ago. was
notable for heNattendance of all the
smart-set. Mrs. Howells, who was form
erly Elizabeth Hunter, was a member OF
one of the eldest Wheeling families. Court
ed by many. she was won by DR.. Howells
after courtship of several years.
From the day of the wedding husband
and wife never spoke to each other.
Friends tried to effect a reconciliation. but
in spite of all their plans nothing came oi
it. No person ever knew what came be-
tween them, and the separation and di-
vorco is one of the mysteries that may
never be revealed. Mrs. Howells. it is said
will soon marry a Western millionaire. but
this attachment has nothing at all to dc
with the divorce.
The strange feature OF the case is that
the couple were known to be highly in.
fstuated with eaclt other before marriage
and their friends were i'm the habit OF
commenting upon the perfect union they
would make. What caused the breach be.
tween them directly after their marriage
may never be known.
