Denver, Sept. 23.-The resignation
of W. E. Johnson. chief of the local
bureau of the Indian service, effective

much more easy, with subsequently
more rapid recovery and an avoidance
of evil after effects in the mare. The
work to be done by the pregnant mare
should be wisely directed by the farm
er, and as the period advances the
more careful should be such direction.
The mare should not be made to
work where she will be subject to slip
or strain which may cause accidental
abortion. Especially Is this true when
she is heavy with foal. 1t is wiser to
keep her at light work right up to the
time of foaling than to allow her to
rest for a month or two previous. In
experienced breeders sometimes make
the mistake of laying the mare off a
couple of months before foaling time,
thinking to allow her opportunity to
get into condition.
She should be kept in good condi-
ton at all times by wise feeding and
then kept moving at some light work
until the critical period. 1t is mistake
to turn her TO pasture or into a small

THINKS SPOUSE
is A BIGAMIST
Mrs. Mary Gellman of Topeka,
Kan, Has Her Husband
Arrested Here.
OTHER WOMEN IN THE CASE
Complainant Believes They Are Wife
and Daughter of Her Better
Half Though They Deny.

Deserted by her husband while she
was lying ill in a hospital at Topeka,
Kan, several months ago, Mrs. Mary
Gellman, 20 years old, has finally To-
Gated her unfaithful spouse, NJ. A Cell
man. in this city, through the aid of
George Gilman, officer of the Rock Is
land County Humane society. She has
brought civil action against him in the
justice court of c. J. Schroeder. The
couple was married some two years
ago and lived happily in Topeka for n
year when a woman and her daughter
from Canada, claiming to be sister
and niece, respectively, of Gellman, ar
rived at the happy home.
EDEN Is INVADED.
Thereupon the troubles of the Cell
mans began. Mrs. Gellman became Ill
as a result and was taken TO a hospi-
tai While there her husband brought
suit for divorce, but the judge refused
TO grant the decree and recognized the
petition of the wife for alimony. He
fixed the sum at Sc per week For two
weeks all was well, but again Mrs.
Gellman was taken i'll, and her husband
left Topeka. Shortly afterwards the wo-
man who claimed to be a sister and niece
packed the furniture of the Gellmans
and shipped it to Davenport. From
there they sent it to Moline where
Gellman had secured employment in
the Deere & Co. factory as a machin-
list. Gellman registered there as a res
ident of Rock Island. A week ago Mrs.
Gellman arrived here and solicited the
aid of the humane officer. 1t was but
few days till the man was located.
Criminal suit against him was impos-
sible. so he has been summoned into
the justice court on civil action.
BELIEVES HIM A BIGAMIsT.
Mrs Gellman stated that 1t is her
opinion that the two women who
caused the ruction in her home came
from Russia, her husbands native land,
and are nothing less than his wife and
daughter. She says that all facts in
the case tend toward that conclusion.
She has been housed in the Associa-
ton house since her arrival here, and
will be kept there till other arrange
ments can be made.
