CRAC|N DID
NOT PROVE WIFE
LEFT W|LFU[LY
Newly Appointed Supreme Court
Justice Defends Champions
Spouse in Chancery Court.

1t is now up to Vice-Chancellor
Emery to decide whether or not Will
lam B. Cragin. jr., of Plainfield, nc-
time national indoor tennis champion,
is to be divorced from his wife, Maysie
Bruce Cragin, who. is making her home
in Trenton Junction.
Long arguments were heard today in
the Court of Chancery in connection
with the case in which Samuel Kalisch,
the newly appointed justice of the Su-
preme Court, appeared for the wife and
Edward A. Day for the husband.
1t was claimed by the former cham
pion that his wife deserted him, and
she fought him on the ground that his
treatment toward her was so cruel
that she was compelled to make her
home elsewhere. At one time she found
her refuge with her uncle. James Don
aid. a wealthy banker, who lives in
q West Seventy-fourth street, Manhat-
tan.
Mr.. and Mrs. Cragin were married
November 20, 1901, in New York. by the
Rev. DR.. Halsey, of the Rutgers Pres
byterian Church. and lived together
util October II. 1908. The couple have
one child. Marguerite, born February
%, 1907, and it was almost Immediately
after the birth of this baby that the
family ~dissensions became violent and
finally terminated in the alleged deser-
ton.
1t was asserted by Mr.. kalisch that
Mr.. Cragin had utterly failed to show,
as a lawyer requires In order to make a
divorce possible, that Mrs. Cragin's de-
sertion had been "wilful. continued and
obstinate" On the other hand, Mr..
Day argued that Mrs. Cragin's deser-
ton was such as to entitle his client
to an absolute divorce.

The Lewiston team defeated
the Culdesac Indian team Sun
day by score of % to 0.
Winchester and Culdesac play
ed close game Sunday at the
latter place, Culdesac winning by
score of A to2.
The Grangeville team will try
its luck at Lewiston Sunday
with the fast aggregation at that
place. Carr and Cleveland will
be the Grangeville battery.
The game between Juliaetta
and Genesee at the latter place
Sunday ended in row in the
fourth inning when the score
stood A to in favor of Genesee.
The game between Cottonwood
and Nezperce Sunday was a
fiasco and resulted in a victory
for the former by a score of 19
to 13. Both teams were decided
ly off color and put up very rag
ged ball. They will play again
at Nezperce next Sunday and the
game should be much better than
the first one. Both teams will
be able to put up good ball as
soon as they get into condition.
The Camas Prairie base ball
league will open the season on
Sunday, May 7, with the follow
ing games: Winchester at Reu-
bens; Cottonwood at Grangeville;
Ilo-Vollmer at Nezperce. The
league games will be played each
Sunday during the season and
will run we'll up into August. 1t
is probable that the various teams
will also play independent ball
occasionally during the week
with other teams.
The game played here yester-
day afternoon between the Gene
see high school team and a local
team composed partly of high
school and partly of first team
players resulted in victory for
the home team, the score stand
ing 7 to s.. The Genesee boys
are a classy bunch of ball tossers
and have taken the scalps of
practically every high school
team they have come in contact
with. They went on to Grange
vile last night and will play the
high school team at that place
today.

$4,000 FIRE
AT v0LLMER
Monday Morning Blaze Comes
Near to Destroying Neighbor-
ing City---Bucket Brigade Does
Good Service.

Our neighboring city of Voll-
mer was visited with a $4,000
conflagration Monday morning
which for time threatened the
entire destruction of that flour
lshing place. The fire started in
the upper rooms of the Mcdonald
building in rooms occupied by
two women teachers in the Voll-
mer school. When discovered
the entire upper part of the
building was in flames and ow-
ing to the lack of water system
the fire could not be checked.
The flames soon spread to the
McGee building and later de-
stroyed the Martin building, the
Lyon building and the Wallace
building. Shortly before noon
the flames were brought under
control after they reached the
brick walls of the Bank & Trust
building and the wooden out
buildings had been torn away.
The losses in the fire are as
follows:
J. S. Mcdonald, building and
law Office, $1,000; light insurance.
J. M. McGee, building and
furnishings, $500; insurance
$1,000.
Nezperce Telephone Co., $500;
no insurance.
George Martin, building, 81, :
400; little or no insurance.
W. L. Lyon, building, $1,000;
some Insurance.
Ramsey Furnitue Co., 81, 100;
some insurance.
R. H. Wallace, $500; some in
Surance.
Bank & Trust Co., $500; fully
insured.
The citizens of Vollmer and Ilo
and the employees of the Nez-
perce railway did good service
with a bucket brigade after the
chemical engine got out of COM
mission and to their efforts is due
the fact that the fire was brought
under control without spreading
further than it did.

Bleached Flour Under The Ban

The sale of bleached flour in
Idaho must cease before October
Is, is the edict that has been
sent to millers and others con-
cerned throughout the state by
James H. Wallis, state pure food
and sanitary commissioner, and
in the event this order has not
been carried out as suggested,
the state will take steps to prose-
cute the violaters.
The sale of bleached flour is
prohibited by the federal govern
ment and Commissioner Wallis
is acting in harmony with the
federal government in the en-
forcement of the law. Accord
ing to reports received here,
Commissioner Wallis made ar
rests in southern Idaho recently
where the law relative to bleach
ed flour was alleged to have been
violated.
Bleached flour is handled ex-
tensively by the merchants
throughout the state. 1t is said
that the bleaching is done by a
chemical process which injects
nitrates into the flour and these
are detrimental to the digestive
organs.
Unbleached flour can be digest
ed in just one-half the time that
the bleached flour can and the
harm is apparent. According to
the notices sent out by Mr.. Wal
lis. merchants will be warned
and the crusade against this
bleached flour will begin in ear
nest. The government is deter
mined to rid the country of the
stuff, the sale being general
throughout the United States.

Idaho Leads In Crops.

Idaho is far and away ahead of
other states of the Union in rails
ing winter wheat and rye, ac-
cording to statistics which have

ment, and which show that the
state of Idaho had SO per cent of
a perfect crop in winter wheat
and the same in rye.
The report shows that the win
ter wheat crop is 10, 600, 900 BUSH
els, larger than ever raised in
the United States before. The
average is 1873 per cent as against
80.8 per cent last year. 1t is
said that if everything goes we'll
between now and harvest time
The yield will be about SAL, ,414,-
900 bushels. This is put against
527, 900, 900 bushels last year.

According to the census report
just issued from Washington, D.
c., the town of Cottonwood has
only a population of 555 souls
and the precinct a population of
992. Grangeville is given a pop
ulation of 1884. These figures
| fall far short of what each town
is generally supposed to have
| but as all of the cities and towns
throughout the country are fall
ing short of their estimated pop
ulation it is probable that the
figures are pretty nearly correct.
