Gardner gave the prices of sixteen

MOTHER-IN-LAW
[uNIrrp rRnss LEASED VIM. ]

Detroit, Mich, Feb 24.--The most
remarkable story ever related in the
prosecutors Office here was that of
Mrs. Bertha Wardel, an unusually
pretty brunette, who told of the
elopement of her husband and her
own mother. 1t is case without par
allel in the history of that office, or
probably in any of the city courts.
1T is surprising that your hus-
band should run away and leave
you" gallantly remarked Attorney
Crane.

man, but you should see my moth

The affair occurred last August,
according to Mrs. Wardel, who is
now determined to secure a separa-
tion from the arrant spouse. She
asks that her 6-year-old son be given
to her.
The couple were married in 1902.
The year following the mother came
to the home to nurse the daughter,
when the latter's child was born. Not
ong after this, according to the young
woman, her husband became atten-
tive and bestowed his smiles upon
the mother. Finally the two disap-
peared at the same time.

Change Dates of Show.


The dates of the show as original
ly fixed upon were changed last
night from April 1 and Q, to April
s and 8. The reason for making
the change was that Mount Angel
has decided to hold horse show on
April 2, and has already made
preparations for it, and the manage
ment here did not desire conflict;
and also because of the further rea-
son that a number of the business
men would rather have the show
given along the fore part of the
month than have it come on the first
day.
The committee on finance which
was appointed some time ago to
make a canvass of the city for
funds reported that considerable
money had been already raised and
that it was assured of a fund of
$1,000. This will enable the asso-
citation to give the best possible
show.
c. w. Yannke was appointed
chief marshal, and the aides APP
pointed are J. H. Farrar, Enos

Hamilton.
The general committee will hold
another meeting Friday evening
Allcommunications with relation to

the newspapers are prone to criti-

mering your administration, treating
it sometimes with contemptuous dis
dain, and sometimes with patronizing
friendship, it is hard to overcome the
feeling that perhaps you ought to be-

"In view of all that, to have re-

that perhaps, the American people
