SCHEER'S DIVORCE
DECLARED ILLEGAL
Ex-Pugilist Scored By Judge
Murphy for Bringing Suit
Under False Pretenses

The divorce proceedings OF Freder-
lex Is. Scheer, former pugilist, known
as Kid" Scheer and Tommy Dugap,
received a setback, Thursday morning,
when Judge Murphy dismissed the
bill OF complaint. This followed the
testimony OF the plaintiff that he had
lived with Mrs. Scheer after the bill
was hled. The court ordered him TO
pay his wife So week temporary all
mony pending the result OF her sui,
upon a cross-bill.
The kid" protested all the while
that he was without funds and was
earning only $l2 a week, in spite OF
the testimony or several witnesses TO
the effect that he had told them OF re-
ceiving all the way from 500 To SOU
weekly.
Mrs. Blanche Scheer. the wife, said
that she had seen her husbands per-
sonal expense account, and that ii ran
from 500 TO $40 a week. She also tes-
tilted that he had frequently told her
that If she ever got divorce from
him no court in the world could make
him pay alimony.
He said he didn't pay any to his
other two wives and he wasn't going
to to me-" she said. Then he threat
ened that If | asked ii he would go on
the stand TO tell all kinds OF lies about
me and that the court would believe
him, because he had pull with them
ALL"
This assertion aroused Judge Muir
phys Indignation and caused him TO
question the complainant closely about
1t, but Scheer denied having made
such a statement. The judge scored
him severely for having the "presump-
ton" TO come into court TO get de-
cree under circumstances which made
IL illegal A divorce was granted
Sheer about three weeks ago and set
aside the next day upon complaint OF
his wife that she had not been noti-
fed.
Mary Healy, stenographer employ
ed by Scheer's attorney, testified to
having served a notice upon the de-
PENDANT, May Is, in her fiat at No. 75t
Grand River-ave., and said that she
recognized Mrs. Scheer as the woman
she saw there.
Mrs. Scheer declared that she new
er saw the girl before.

Fl. WAYNE CANNOT
BECOME HOSPITAL
Another Aidermanic Scheme for
Converting Old Buildings for
Sick Poor is Quashed

Aid. Dill's plans for securing posses
sion of the Fort Wayne army post Tor
city hospital and park have been
quashed by the war department
In answer TO a communication from
Joseph Lougheed. clerk OF the council
committees, asking when ii would be
convenient for the war department to
evacuate the old post and arrange to
turn II over TO the city, Henry Breck-
inridge. acting secretary OF war. re-
piled that the war department had no
plans for permanent withdrawal from
Fort Wayne.
The general plan for the proper
stationing of the army after with
drawal of the army for foreign garri-
sons, writes the acting secretary or
war, is to place troops at such posts
as Will accommodate the larger organ
lzations, such as regiments, and that
the posts be SO located that troops
can be brought 10 some convenient
point for combined instruction with
out too great expense In the course
OF this policy 1t may become desirable
In the future 10 withdraw troops from
Fort Wayne, but for the present the
war department has no plans for such
action AS to the purchase by the
city of this reservation after troops
are withdrawn, an act Of Congress Will
be necessary to accomplish this re-
suit"
1t was, the plan Of Aid. Dill to pur-
chase or lease the army post from the
government as soon as ii was aban-
doned and convert the barracks and
other buildings into municipal hos
pital, using the grounds for public
park. The alderman told the council
he had information that the govern

DEATH BEGINS
TO TAKE TOLL

Biwabik, Mimi, Nov. 12.-The hunting
tragedies that mark the big game season
this section when Matt MAXI, a Biwabil
miner, was instantly killed by an un-
known hunter, who succeeded in making
his escape. f
The accident happened Sunday morn
ing near Mile Post 90. on the Duluth &,
Iron Range road. Maxi and two compan-
ions. also On Il hunting trip, left the rail
road and We're swinging along single file
on an old logging road, when the sing OF
a bullet was heard and Maki's companions
sa whim drop in his tracks. The missed
had penetrated his head. AS soon as they
saw that the man was beyond aid the two
men ran in the direction from which they
had heard the report. They claim to have
caught q glimpse of a running man, but
he would not stop on their cries and dis
appeared in the woods before they could
reach him. 1t is assumed that he was
hunting in the vicinity and took Maxi
for moving game.
Maxi was q years old and had worked
in the mines in this vicinity since com
ing from Finland, some years ago. The
body will be brought here for burial.

JUSTICE fISkE
HAS EYES ON
SUPREME BENCH

Grand Forks, N. D., Nov. 12.-Justice
Charles J.. Fisk of the North Dakota SUI
preme court, whom some Democrats have
been anxious to force into the race for
United States senator, is not considering
any such step. While Justice Fisk has
made no definite statement to that effect,
friends of the justice assert that he has
no inenion of enering the race.
Justice Fisk now has a position that
is good for five years to come, with
cut any worry. AND if he wants to be
reelected at the end Of that time, there
doesn't appear. at the present time. any
reason why he can be returned to the
bench.
But there are Others who see some
thing better for Justice Fisk now that
the Democrats are in power, and that
something better is a United States
judgeship, a lifetime job. There are
several things that might bring on such
ton of Judge c. F. Amidon of the North
Dakota district, which is not at all i'm
probable.
Justice Fisk stands very high in the
estimation Of Secretary Bryan, and they
have been intimate friends for years. II
President Wilson will give his ear to
Bryan in case a vacancy should exist,
North Dakota Democrats, and particular
ly Judge Fisk's friends, see no reason
why he should not be elevated to- the
Chief Justice spaulding will be the
lone member of the supreme court whose
term expires next year, and he will be
a candidate for reelection. 1t is not
certain, at this early date. whether there
viii be any formidable opposition to JUS
tice Spaulding. but it is not anticipated
that there win be.
"A. G.. Divett of Wahpeton was report
ed training for the supreme court race of
next year. but it is understood that, more
recently, he has given up the idea Of en-
tering the fight against Justice Spaulding.

QUIT MEAT # YOUR

lots Of water.

We are a nation Of meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid, says, q
well-known authority, who warns us to
be constantly on guard against kidney
trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork; they
get sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog
and thus the waste is retained in the
blood to poison the entire system.

weather, get from your pharmacist about
four ounces of Jad Salts; take q
tablespoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast each morning and in a few
days your kidneys will act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid Of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys,
to neutralize the acids in urine so it is
no longer a source of irritation, thus
ending urinary and bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is Inexpensive and cannot

a mistake BY taking a little occasionally
to keep the kidneys clean and active.

Ignite FIELDS
RICH QUALITY

Fargo, y. D., Nov. 12.-The ~unequalled
ment are pointed out by State Geologist
Hard of the North Dakota Agricultural
college in connection with the ignite
coal deposits of the state.
Thirty-two thousand square miles OF
the state are underlaid with Ignite. Lo-
cally this removes the fear Of a fuel fam
inc for a few thousand years. One OF the
great drawbacks in the past has been
the failure of investors and manufactur-
ers to furnish stoves and furnaces that
handicap is being overcome and the use
of the coal is annually becoming more
general for domestic and other purposes.
The coal is SO rich in gas that Geo.
logist Hard points out the EXTRACTION of
the gas would pay for the conversion OF
quotes a a feul value very near an
thracite coal. The gas could be piped to
these sections of the state under which
there is no coal. and it could be be used
for both heat and power. but if that plan
is not desired it could easily be convert
transmitted to all sections OF the state
in furnishing cheap power for mannfac-
uring enterprises.
That this field, which presente such
an u%nequalled opportunity for develop
ment. is being more generally understood
and appreciated is evident. That it VIII
not be a great deal longer neglected by
capital seeking profitable investment is
also the prediction of the man conversant
with the wonderful possibilities in this
connection.
Incident to this. heat and power de-
%velopment would naturally, come the ex-
%ploitation of the wonderful clay and ce-
ment beds Of the state. The commercial
possibilities in this connection are prac-
ticAlly unlimited.
