RISES IN WRATH.
Mrs. Bert Sutherland Has Her
EX-Husband Arrested.
Charges He Has an Affinity in
Pretty Mrs. Coleman.

Because they are said to have over
worked their personal friendship, Anna
Coleman, the pretty young wife of a
wealthy RossNille farmer. and Bert
Sutherland. but 10 days divorced from
Luella Sutherland. were arrested to-
day on state complaint sworn to by
Sutherland's divorced WIFE
The case against Sutherland and the
Coleman woman may be filled Wi-1
spicy evidence. Mrs. Sutherland is
deeply grieved and admits it. She tried
to make her companion happy and con-
tent in his own home, but there was
nothing doing. Then Mrs. Sutherland
went to the courts with her troubles.
Less than 10 days ago. she was given
a divorce 1t was too much profanity,
dire threats OF personal harm and no
Sutherland said caused the trouble
Not a word did the wife say about
her husbands illegal soul mates.
For a week the divorced wife tried
to forget her trouble, then she went
to the county attorneys S Office and asked
for a warrant. There was bitter sar-
casm and a deep desire for revenge IN
every word and action Of the neglected
wife. She declared that Sutherland and
the pretty Mrs. Coleman were Staylr5
in a house on East Seventh street be-
tween Quincy and Monroe streets ard
a deputy sheriff went in search OF the
couple.
Coleman is a well to do farmer liv-
to the story which Mrs. Sutherland
told an assistant in the county attor-
ney's Office, Coleman'S companion lett
her happy home on the farm and came
to Topeka where there was some
thing to live for" She had tired OF the
humdrum existence OF the rural life,
came to Topeka and met Sutherland
For sometime. the divorced Mrs. Suth-
erland said they have lived as husband
and wife
While Sutherland and his wife are
divorced, it Will be six months before
the decree takes" So when the dis
carded companion Of the Topeka wo-
man, sought another affinity, he reck-
oned not with the legal status or the
matrimonial game.
AS for the accomplished and attrac-
tive Mrs. Coleman. sne has never been
divorced from the RosSville agrlcul-
turist and her position from a legal
standpoint is as embarrassing as that
of he Topeka man.
The case against Sutherland and Mrs.
Coleman will be tried in the court OF
Topeka sometime this week.

A small red electric light globe ir
