Proceedings Of the County Court.

There was not a single case
to be tried in the county
court on Monday. This is
very unusual. Monday is the
big day with the court, hav>
ing Saturday, Saturday night
and Sunday to gather them
in, and it was a matter of sur
prise that with the large
crowds in town Saturday,
day and night, that not
a case was on the docket.
On Saturday, Earl Goode,
who had been convicted of
using his knife so fiercely,
and with resisting the officers
who went to arrest him, was
given 8 months on the roads.
Henry Goode was found gull
ty of assault with a deadly
weapon and was fined $4,000
and the cost.
On Tuesday morning there
was a pretty full house when
court opened, Several minor
cases we're disposed Of and
some laid over until Wednes~
day. The principal case tried
and which gave the most
thought to the court was
Tom Jarvis upon whom jndg>
ment was suspended about a
month ago on a charge of
abandoning his wife, and
failing to support her and
one child. He was rearrested
upon complaint Of his wife
who stated that he had not
complied with these requires
ments. 1t developed during
the trial that she had been
married to a man named
Small in 1898 and had lived
with him for several years,
he had left her and she had
not seen him for six or seven
years, and that she had
heard that he was dead.
When she married Tom Jar,
Wis and has lived with him
for 3 or 4 years having one
child by him which is about
two years old. She admitted
that she had heard later that
Small was living, and when
asked why she did not get a
divorce from him she answer
ed that he was not worth a
divorce, that he had left her
and she had not heard from
him in ESQ long a time that
she thought a divorce was
not necessary.
Jarvis on the stand stated
that be had married the wo-
man in good iaith and upon
her representation that her
husband swas dead, he had
lived with and provided for
her until he learned that her
husband was not dead and
that there had been no di~
vorce, and although she had
been very unkind to him,
cursing him and calling him
all kinds Of vile names when
he was about the house and
had prosecuted and prosecu-
ted him in every way, still he
was willing to provide for her
and his child if she would OBJ
tain a divorce from Small,
and marry her again so as to
legitimatize his child, and
his reason for not complying
with the judgment IN the
former case was that it had
taken all the money he could
raise. Some $4,000 to pay
the cost in that case, and al
though he only made $1.36
per day at his work in the
cotton mill he had given her
a small amount of money on
one or two occasions since his
first arrest, and had only
used what was necessary to
pay his own board. The
money for his last week work

was on terms of intimate friendship
with many of the most distinguished
persons of his day. He had a com
manding intellect. a literary style
which was the envy and admiration
of the learned. He knew law as well
as he did theology. French as well as
he did Latin. His grasp Of a wide
range of subjects and his attention to
detail were things to marvel at Add
to these an inexhaustible patience and
a bulldog tenacity of purpose. a vivid
human interest and an amazing ca

They pldn,t Have 10 chanoe.

During the years in which our pure
food laws have been put into effect
there has been a great hurrying and
scurrying on the part of the food man
ufacturers to change their methods to
make them conform to the law.
The Quaker Oats Company is a con-
spicuous exception. It was admitted
that Quaker Oats was as pure and
clean as possible and that it was an
ideal food.
1t Is so cheap that any one can af-
ford II and so nourishing that every
one needs it. The result Of last years
experiments at Yale and other points
where food values were tested is that
Quaker Oats has been adopted by
many persons as their food on which
they rely for adding yigor and endur-
ance Of muscle and brain.
The Quaker Oats Company meets
all demands in the way it packs
Quaker Oats; regular size packages
and the large size family package;
the latter both with and without
china.
