The case OF Farrar vs. Farrar was
decidedly racy. although the story was
entirely one sided. the defendant,
Phoebe E. Farrer, putting In no de
fense. and not even being present
while her character was being attack
ed by her husband. There is little In
the way of vileness and lewdness that
the woman was not accused Of by the
plaintiff as he sat In the witness chair.
Much of the story told by Farrer was
unfit for publication. He proved to
the satisfaction of the court that his
wife had beaten him on numerouB oc-
casions, she being a large and power.
full woman. while he claims to be an
invalid; that she had for a long time
preferred the company of other men
to his society. and that her manner of
life was decidedly wrong. Corrobora-
tive evidence was given by H C. San
ders. who conducts a shoe shop next
to Farrer's store The decree granted
by Judge Morse made no mention of
the children. Lillian. aged IL, and Hell

asks for the custody OF the children,
and their disposition will be considered
later
Mrs. Farrer was the first to file suit
for divorce, and she was about to get
1t when admissions were made that
the couple had lived together since the
case got into court. The proceedings
were dropped by the wife, when the
husband Immediately filed his sensa-
tional charges.
Judge Armstrong granted a divorce
to Ruth Douglas. who proved that her
husband, John F. Douglas, had desert
ed her. Corroborative evidence was
given by DR.. C. 1. Douglas, and the
plaintiff was awarded alimony In the
sum of $50 per month and the custody
of a daughter, aged years. The coun-
pie married at Yuba, Cal, September
90, 1906.
The other decree granted by Judge
Armstrong was to Henry A. Hanson.
whose wife. Leona X. Hanson. was
accused of being unfaithful to her mar
riage vows. The Hansons were mar
ried In Glenwood Springs, Colo. June
is, 1902, and 1t was stated to the court
that the woman is still living there.

A third of our population is urban;
the rest is more or less rural, What
the country dwellers need to make
them happy are religion, education
and material prosperity. The farms
cannot employ as many laborers per
acre as they did before the coming OF
agricultural machinery. Therefore
they must either raise fewer children
or export some Of their population TO
the cities.-Harper Weekly.
