Variation of Electric Force.

Electrical force varies with the sur
face of bodies, while gravitation varies
only with their mass This explains
the curious fact that a comets tail is
always turned away from the sun. A
comet and the sun are similarly cleo,
trified and for this reason they are
mutually repulsive. Gravitation out
matches this repulsion in the body of
the comet, but yields to it in the gas,

MRS.LUk|NS|S
T0C0NTEST
THE SUIT
Bade Of Month Declares That
Rich Father -in-LaW is the
Cause Of Separation.

Behind the commonplace divorce
suit filed in the district court here
last week by Charles f. Lukins,
Sunnyside rancher. is a sensational
episode or two in the life of the
young couple.
LuKins is the son of Fred w. Lu-
kins, a wealthy Chicago and st. Louis
mining man, who owns a chain of
coal properties in Illinois and Mis-
souri,
1t is claimed by the young woman
that she did not desert her husband,
as is claimed in the divorce petition,
but that she was forced to leave MIN
by the young mans father. 1t ap-
pears that the parents of the young
man opposed the marriage, which
was an elopement and was kept Sc
cret for some months. When Lu-
kins, Sr., learned of his sons ro-
nance, he Immediately took steps to
put an end to it. According TO the
young wife, who is said to be work
ing in Chicago restaurant, Lukins
came out from Chicago upon learn
ing of the marriage, and tried to
induce the girl to leave her husband.
She refused at first, but finally re-
turned to Chicago. Later she brought
$50, 900, charging him with alienat-
ing the boys affection. This suit is
now pending in the Chicago courts.
Mrs. Lukins denied that she de-
serted her husband, as alleged in the
petition in the Grand Junction court,
which is the second suit filed by the
husband. She alleges that she was
forced to leave the ranch, and that
ever since they were married Lu-
kins, Sr., has been trying to enforce
separation. She claims that she
left the ranch month after their
marriage, as alleged in the boys COM
plant, but that il was at the in
stance of her father-in-law, who sent
for her to come to Chicago. Hoping
to reconcile him to her marriage, she
says she went there, and when she
arrived she was told that she must
divorce the son. She claims that she
asked the father how this could be
done, and he replied: Very easily
All you have to do is to do some
thing to compromise yourself, and
in this way my son will have
grounds for divorce"
Acting, it is claimed, under in
structions from the fathers attorney,
Mrs. Lukins says she wrote a letter
to her husband in which she con-
fessed that she was unfaithful, and
in return for which she says she was
given $500 and a trip to California.
Before leaving, however, she wrote
her husband a second letter in which
she repudiated what sne said in the
first letter.
Mrs. Lukins will arrive here soon,
and expects to contest the suit for
divorce filed by her husband Her
friends here say she is still in love
with him, and that the only trouble
of the young couple is due to too
much father-in-law.

1t has been hoped for some time
that the building could be erected
soon, but the directors have been
waiting until conditions were more
propitious. 1t was the sense of the
meeting last evening, however, that
those members of the order who
have contributed to the present fund
of the association should have an
opportunity to enjoy its benefits.
With this in mind it was agreed that
the temple should be erected this
year.
The site has not yet been chosen,
but it will be decided upon at aatime
not far distant.
The temple, when complete, will
contain a Commodious lodge room
fitted up as elaborately as any in the
state. Special attention is to be
paid to this room where the business
of the order is to be transacted
a magnificently appointed ban
quet room and a large ball room will
also be provided for in the plans and
will be as richly furnished as the
designers can plan.
Club rooms will, of course. be
furnished in a comfortable, home
like manner. The temple will be
surrounded by spacious grounds COW
ering six or eight lots, with plenty
of shade and settees for the pleasure
and comfort of all Elks and their
families during the hot weather.
May Have Gym.
Other features, not yet decided up
on. but being considered are gymna
stun, plunge bath and possibly a
roof garden. These matters will be
decided upon at future meetings of
the board
By the time the building is COM
pleied, which will not be later than
Christmas of this year, it will be
fully paid for and the Elks of this
city will have as fine home as any
in the intermountain west. Partic-
ular attention will be paid to comfort
in fitting up the club rooms and in
planning the grounds. Every effort
