EXPRESS MEN BACK TO WoRr

Finally Been Settled.

New York, Nov 14.-Four thousand
striking expressmen went back to
work today wearing their union but
tons conspicuously. For the first time
in two weeks, the LOO teams of the
Adams, Wells-Fargo, United States
and American express companies were
unhampered about Manhattan, Brook
Ign, Jersey City and Hoboken. Slow
ly the great congestion Of express
packages was being relieved.
The only morning dispute took place
on the company dock of the United
States Express company when the
company objected to ten former en-
ployes. About $50 men gathered about
the place and the strikers announced
if those ten we're not allowed to re-
turn to work, no one formerly EN-
ployed there would go back. AS the
ten were not engaged, the others re-
fused to work.

Gates Beats Stanton.

Neigh, Neb.. Nov. Especial to
The News: The football game Satur.
day afternoon at the Riverside park
field between Gates academy and the
Stanton high school was one-sided
affair, with the academy bunch having
the best of the argument from start to
finish. There were only three fifteen
minute quarters played so as to enable
the visitors to catch their train home.
Stanton Chose the south goal with
the wind in their favor, but soon lost
the ball to Gates who rushed things
and secured a touchdown and goal by
Harris after ten minutes of play, The
first quarter resulted in the score of
16 to o. In the second quarter the
home boys increased their score eleven
points more, and the third quarter
five more points were given TO their
credit, making a total of thirty-two.
The visitors secured their two points
on a touchdown at the finish of the
third quarter. Final score: Gates 81,
Stanton 2.
The academy team and also the high
school managers have been trying
faithfully during the past several days
to secure game for Thanksgiving at
the Riverside park field, but it seems
that this is an impossibility.

A DIVORCE FLARES BACK.
Now Eight New Workers Are in IAN
Awful Stew"

New York Nov. IA matrimonial

ers blow yesterday that has left
stew" Eight persons are involved in
the case. This is the way it goes, fig
ure it out for yourself:
In 1876 Robert F.. Tysen welded
and in 1892 she was granted a South
Dakota divorce. In 1892 Mrs. William
Pollock was divorced and wed to Ty-
sen, while William Pollock, her hus-
band, married Mrs. James Kernochan.
In 1899 Mrs. Pollock-Tysen divorced
Tysen and in 1902 Mrs. Joseph Ben
rimo divorced Benrimo. The next
year Mrs. Benrimo becomes Mrs. Ty-
sen No. 3, while in 1906 Benrimo wed
Helen Robertson, the actress. In 1909
Tysen sued to annul his marriage to
wife No. 8, formerly Mrs. Benrimo,
and Mrs. Benrimo Tysen filed a coun-
ter claim for divorce. The supreme
court dismissed Mr.. Tysen's annul-
ment suit, and now, to add compiled
tions, the appellate division Of the gu
preme court decided today:
/. That Tysen's annulment suit was
improperly dismissed by the trial term
and that he Is entitled to new trial.
2. That Benrimo and his first wife,
who is the present Mrs. Tysen, were
never legally divorced, according to
New York law. because service in the
suit was made on Benrimo by publica'
ton and he never appeared to defend
the action In Michigan.
The result of the decision today
puts all the persons mentioned in the
foregoing in somewhat of an awkward
position. to say the least.

They Might Have Shot Him.

Constable A. w. Finkhouse took
Michael Conway to the Madison Jail
Saturday, where Conway will serve
thirty.day sentence for stealing grapes
from the Northwestern freight depot
here. While at the county Jail the
constable had a pleasant chat with
Tommy Slavin, the self confessed
Meadow Grove bank robber. Slavin
declared that Constable Finkhouse
came very near losing his life when
he followed Slavin and his gang
through corntields southwest of the
Junction.
Shorty asked two of us to go back
and put you out of commission" de-
clared Slavin 20 the constable. I'VE
told him we did not believe you were
following us and we let it CO."
What would you have done to me
if you had caught me?" inquired the
constable.
Il don't know" said Slavin, but we
would have got rid of you all right.
II my gun had not caught on the strap
of my trousers at the Junction they
would never have got me, but l don't
care now. believe they will get the
others, also"
Slavin, according to the constable,
is looking very well. His stay at Sher-
in Smiths hotel seems to agree with
him. He has taken on flesh and Is
very cheerful and laxative. He de-
clares he is the son Of wealthy
butcher in the east. He has a good
education and says he was on trip
through the United States when he
fell into bad company. He will get
his trial on November %.
