1.-THE SADDEST CASE. I"
Said Judge Dana Today, Speaking of
Montgomery Divorce Case.

: The saddest case ever before his
court, said Judge A. w. Dana today.
is the divorce procedure of Ralph D.
Montgomery and his wife, Gertrude S.
Montgomery. Mr.. Montgomery is the
son and assistant of Henry S. Mont
gomery. general watch inspector for
the Santa Fe railway. Mrs. Montgom-
cry was Gertrude Hopkins, daughter of
w. z. Hopkins. Both families are old
and prominent in Topeka.
The occasion was the granting of
Montgomery in her petition filed Octo-
Der 81. She was, at the time the pc
tition was filed, and still is, bedridden
at the home of her mother.
THE wife is i'll with tuberculosis at
her mothers home" said Judge Dana.
iieve the court must so act as to pro-
vide for her the greatest relief from
the mental strain of this suit. 1t may
be true, have no doubt that it is, that
some influence in bringing this action.
That they have a great dislike for Mr..
Montgomery is apparent.
THE husband and his people want
an order from the court compelling
her to leave her mothers hor1e and go
to his, and further forbid the mother
and sisters to come there. 1 believe
the wife still has faculties enough to
determine her own mind. But whether
that is so or not, she seems to want
to be where she is and with the doc
tors advice, I believe she had better
stay there.
HE has the two little boys They
should see their mother each week
but the sisters and mother must be
properly advised to to prevent 4,eOi the SICK
'I want to ease this situation along
until we see what will be the condition
of the wife. If she passes away, we
do not want this trouble any more
than is possible to prevent, to have an
influence in it. If she can recover we
must help her along"
Judge Dana spoke at length of the
case. The fact that the mother might
see her children but be forbidden to
fondle them in the slightest way is one
of the saddest phases of the case. That
the families are bitterly at war over
the sick woman's head is deplored by
the court.
The court in refusing to order the
woman to her husbands home, took
occasion to compliment Montgomery in
apparently having done his utmost to
make home pleasant for his wife. He
said Montgomery had built tubercu-
Iosis cottage for his wife, called by the
doctors the finest it would be possible
to make. But added thecourt, "if
she can not live there without mental
anguish, what would it avail We're 1t
made of gold!'
Temporary alimony of SIS a month
was the order of the court. In regard
to the children, it was ordered that
they be taken for a visit with their
mother on Saturdays and Wednesdays
for a period of one or two hours.
A final shot of the family war was
fred by Montgomery's attorney. James
E. Larimer, when he informed the
court that the alimony of SIS a month
virtually made his client the supporter
of the whole Hopkins family.

Ter While in the local Jail We're two
bedraggled women and four taciturn
men, one of the latter with a shoulder

held as witnesses Of the affair.
One of the prisoners was Bertha
Brewer, the woman over whom the
trouble occurred. The Brewer girl dis
appeared from her home in Chappaqua

Thursday night John Brewer, it is said,
went to the house and demanded that
his sister be turned over to him. A
row followed and Brewer was shot in
the shoulder.
Last night a party of men went to
the Merritt house and demanded the
girl. An attack on the house and a
general fusillade followed. Jno. Mccain

BRITISH SQUARE DEALERS.
Premier Says They Are Fighting for
Representative Government.

London, Nov. 19.-Premier Asquith
opened the radical campaign in a
speech at a luncheon of the National
Liberal club today. He announced no
new policies.
The government, Mr.. Asquith said
was determined to bring an end at once
and for all time to the present system
under which liberal legislation did not
have a fair chance and to confine the
second chamber to subordinate func-
tons appropriate to such a body. The
liberals were fighting for fair play for
progressive legislation and the com
plete establishment of a representative
government.
Regarding the recent activity of the
lords in the matter of reforming them
selves, the premier said that the rea-
son for this was clearly apparent, as
the Tories could not face another cleo
ton with the incubus of the house of
lords on their back.

APPEALS HIS CASE.
Oklahoma Negro VIII Test "Grand-
father Clause" of Constitution.

Washington, Nov. 19.-EIeven days
after the election Joseph Atwater, an
Oklahoma negro, today filed in the
supreme court of the United States his
appeal from the decision of the Okla
homa courts which had refused to en-
join the election officials in Oklahoma
City from denying him the right to
vote on November s.
The petition for injunction was based
on the claim that the grandfather
clause" placed in the Oklahoma con-
stitution by amendment was invalid
because it would deny the right to vote
to a large number of negroes in the
state entirely owing to color or pre-
vious condition of servitude. The
clause complained of denied the right
to vote to those who could not read
and write a section of the constitution.
It provided, however, that no per-
sons should be denied the right to vote
if either he or his ancestors had the
right to vote in any form of govern
ment on January 1, 1855.
