MRS. JONES NOW SUES,
Woman of Many Names and Much
Trouble Wants Support.

The Jones family's domestic affairs
showed signs of abatement this morning
when Mabel Norris Blush Wiscombe-
Jones filed suit in the district court
against Frank Jones for separate main
tenance. The Joneses were married i've
weeks ago in Lawrence, though before
that time they have repeatedly teStned
that they were married in Kansas City
Much of the Jones trouble came from
an effort on the part of Jones and his
alleged wife to GUST the Woman's par
ents from little home in West Topeka.
In this they failed. Another chapter in
the case was made when Jones' former
that Jones had kidnapped their S-year-o old
daughter by taking her from the juris-
diction of the Atchison county court.
In one of the recent trials of the Jones
cases Mrs. Jones produced a bit of paper,
which she said was their license to marry
and that they were united in Kansas City
a year ago. But this little piece of pa
Jones and his affinity went to Douglas
county, where they tried all over again.
The last marriage took.
Then the Jones troubles started all
over again. In her petition, the much
married Mabel says that her husband has
been coming home drunk, that he abuses
and curses her and has threatened to kill
her. She refuses to accept this treatment.
Perhaps it Is the nightmare Of a possible
remarriage, perhaps not. but plaintive
Mabel does not ask for a divorce. In
stead, she wants $50 for attorney fees and
alimony in the amount of $l5 week.
The woman says her husband has worked
to s4S a week. Jones Brothers, the dixie
contractors and relatives of Frank Jones,
are made parties to the action to attach
Jones wages.

KEEP ON MOVING
County Expenses Are on the
Increase.
Nearly Two Hundred Thousand
Dollars Last Year.
PRIMARY COMES HIGH
This With Election Was Over
Four Thousand Dollars.
Where All of the Money Has
Gone.
PRIMARY COMES HIGH

Last year it cost $19z.467-s3 to keep
the county's business on the move
This is perhaps the heaviest expense
of any one year in the history OF the
county and is a net gain OF nearly Az
per cent over the county's operating
expenses for the previous year.
But against this apparently appal-
ing showing is the fact that the coun-
tv commissioners put nearly $1O,OOO IN
roads and bridges and these improve
ments will stand for years. Again the
ornrnissioners have spent fair per
cent of the $4,000 fair bonds which
were voted last fall. A third cause Tor
the increase in the cOuntys operating
expense is the operation OF the new
division of the district court. In three
months this new court cost the county
more than $4,000. But this expense
has aided litigants in disposing of their
troubles with less delay then when the
county had but one court

AS another reason why the expense
for the year ending July 1 has been
extremely heavy, James e. Larimer,
county auditor, has called attention 10
the fact that the county held a pr1-
mary and general election last year
and it cost more than $4,000 to choose
the county job holders.

Why ShOuldIUSc
CutiCura Soap?

"There is nothing the matter
with my skin, and I thought
Cuticura Soap was only for skin
troubles" True, it is for skin
troubles, but its great mission is
to brsvent skin troubles. For
more than a generation its deli
cate emollient and Prophylactic
properties have rendered it the
standard for this purpose, while
its extreme purity and refreshing
fragrance give to it all the advan-
tages of the best of toilet soaps.
1t is also invaluable IN keeping
the hands soft and white, the hair
live and glossy, and the scalp
free from dandruf and irritation.
While its first cost is a few cents
more than that of ordinary toilet
soaps, it is prepared with such care
and of such materials, that it wears
to wafer, often outlasting several
cakes of other soap, and making
its use, in practice, most econom-
ical Cuticura Soap is sold by
druggists and dealers everywhere,
but the truth of these claims NAV
be demonstrated without cost by
sending to "Cuticura," Dept. G,
Boston, for a liberal sample
cake, together with a thirty-two-
page book on the skin and hair.

HINES IS RECALLED.
LoriIner Committee Adjourns After a
Short Session.

Washington. July 22.-The activities
OF Edward Hines, whose name has
oeen linked with the election OF Sen
ator Lorimer, to influence the
vote of the senate last spring on I'M
seating the Illinois senator. were in
quired into today by the senate Lori
mer committee.
Hines was on the stand again and
TESTIFIED that he called on President
W. c. Brown of the New York Cen
trail, during the Lorimer fight in the
senate. Hines was asked II he was
seeking to influence the vote Of Sen
ator Depew- He answered in the neg
alive. Hines did say that he spent a
month in Washington just preceding
the vote on the Isorimer case seeing
senators. inducing others to see them
and writing letters to some of his
friends to tell the facts to their sena-
tors"
The committee was in session only
an hour and then adjourned until
Monday in order to attend today's re-
ciprocity session of the senate.
Carl R. Nelson, private stenograph-
er TO Hines, testified that the latter
was continuously in Washington dur
ing February, 1903, except for oc-
caslonal trips to New York. The OBJ
Ject or this was to show that Hines
was not in Chicago during the latter
part of February, when Clarence S.
Funk said Hines called upon him
about the famous Union League club
conversation. Funk said Hines asked
him to contribute to a Lorimer cleo
ton fund, but Hines said Funk Of
fered to contribute.
Mr.. Hines testified today about a
proposal to him to purchase Writ H.
Cooks stock in the Virginia and
Rainy Lake company. Cook testified
that Hines over the telephone said he
would go to Springfield on the day
Lorimer was elected, with all the
money necessary"
1T would have taken about $500, 600
to purchase Cooks stock and as I had
previously received a letter from
him which I figured was in the nature
of black mail, I decided not to buy
the stock" declared Hines.
He claimed he would make some
exposures unless purchased his
stock

Buying Movement Causes Sudden Ac-
tivity at Higher Prices.

New York. July 22-After an extend
ed period of unusual dullness the stock
market was aroused this week by sud
den activity at rising prices. A buy
ing movement, which was centered in
the leading railroad stocks, carried
prices of many issues to the highest
level of the year.
Belated recognition of the more la
vorable outlook for crops strengthened
the market and led to covering of large
lines of short contracts. The favorable
government report of weather condi-
lions for crops and the collapse Of
prices in the cotton market helped TO
place securities on a higher level.
Excited dealings in stocks resulted
from the confusion over the settlement
of the local traction tangle. Assur-
ances that the Electromagnetic tropoI-
tan was to receive a share of the awards
for subway construction led to a sharp
upturn in the securities Of the COM
MANY, and gave impetus to the rise in
the general list. The ultimate rejec-
ton of the company's proposals caused
some unsettlement but the market re-
tanned the major portion Of its gains.
