Tries to Make Flour
Of Wild Marsh Rice
Manufacturer Is Conducting Expert
ment in PoppIe River District
of Minnesota.

CHICAGO, Sept. 2O.-F. l. Vance,
the wild rice king, mas undertaken
an experiment in the Popple River
district of Minnesota, which possesses
curious interest, but which probably
will not become anything important
that is, the manufacture of flour
from wild rice.
This plant is common in the marshy
country, and the product had been
used to some extent as food, taking
the place of such edibles as oatmeal
or any other porridge, but It is diff
cult to obtain in satisfactory quanti-
ties. and hunters who desire to seed
marshes with it have not always been
able to get enough OF it for that
purpose.
Moreover, Mr.. Vance is likely to
meet with stout protest from the
hunters, for this wild rice is a favor

ducks.

SOCIETYLEADER
To GET ALONG

Mrs, Susan Wakefield, Suing for
Divorce From Millionaire, Says
Example Should Aid Others.

BOSTON, Sept. 2O.-Every married
man should insist that her husband
keep her informed about his business
particularly Il the husband is IN
clined TO responsibility in money at
fairs. It's a shock to suddenly wake
up and find that you have got to sub
stitute a S25-a- week allowance Tor a
luxurious home and all the money
that comfort and luxury demands.
Mrs. Susan NJ. Wakefield, wife of
Cyrus Wakefield, son Of the late mil
lionaire rattan manufacturer, who
was last week awarded S25 weekly
from Mr.. Wakefield pending divorce
proceedings this fall, thinks it would
jar the average well-to-do wife to
suddenly discover that $25 was to he
her limit of income.
The termination Of the romance Of
Susan Wakefield and her wealthy
young husband has caused the biggest
sensation in Wakefield that the quiet
and aristOcratic little town has ever
known.
What will Susie Wakefield do now
that she has only $25 a week to live
on?" That is the question that is go
ing the rounds of the town.
Mrs. Wakefield answers it herself.
Says she.

HUSBAND MAKES
NEW RECORD IN
ASKING ALIMONY
Boston Man Enters First Claim
Ever Known to Courts of the
Bay State.

BOSTON, Sept. 20.-Broken teeth.
attacks with utensils ranging from
rolling pins to hot fiatirons, poison
threats and a variety of other COM
plants We're embodied in the suit for
divorce, with allmony. filed yesterday
by Edward A Blakeney against his
wife, Mary A. Blakeney, Of Ran
dolph
Mr.. Blakeneys suit, unique alone
in the fast that for the first time in
the history of Massachusetts courts
a man sought alimony from his wife,
proved the more unusual because Of
the specifications which he detailed
to support his charge of cruelty on
the part Of Mrs. Blakeney.
To secure his claim for alimony.
Mr.. Blakeney also places an attach
ment for $4,000 on the Blakeney
house In Randolph, which he charges
was bought with his money and
merely placed in her name.
Though Mr.. and Mrs. Blakeney
were married in March of 1888. her
acts of cruelty" did not begin until
1900, according to his bill of specifi-
cations. His charges indicate that
then they began in earnest.
In Randolph, he alleges, she threw
a carving knife at him with such
force that it's handle was broken
when 1t hit the wall behind him.
Later I'm the same summer he says,
she struck him in the face and forced
him to sleep in the barn.
Less than a year later, he claims,
she aimed hot flatiron at his face,
which struck his shoulder and
scorched his clothing. The next
event was at supper time, when she
chose saucer, which again missed
his face. but cut his ear as It whis-
tied by.
When a building on the estate on
which they were living was DESTROYED

burning 1t, and later abused their
son, and insisted that he lick" him,
so that they had to leave

CONVICTS UNDER
Ne VI SYSTEM
OUT ON HONOR
fOrty-fve From Joliet Prison Do
ing Road Work Without Any
Guards to Prevent Escape.
PLAY BASEBALL AND SWIM
Have Organized a Watch of Their
Own in Order to Justify the
Faith of the Warden.

DIXON, ILL, Sept. 2O.-Forty five
picked prisoners from the State peni-
Tertiary at Joliet are sleeping each
night practically unguarded on the
banks of Rock River For five or six
months they will enjoy most of the
liberties afforded working road gangs
of free men.
Warden Edmund NJ. Allen is deter
mined to put the new honor system
10 thorough test-the first ever at
tempted in Illinois. He asserts his
confidence that not one of the pris-
oners will attempt to break his
pledge and seek to escape. The pris-
oners themselves are jubilant over the
confidence placed in them and have
entered into the camp life with high
enthusiasm.
Part of the men made a sortie
against the great hill through which
they propose to Cleave a pathway
during the next few weeks. In spite
of heat that registered more than
so degrees they welded picks and
shovels with zeal. And after Super-
visor T. +. Kegan had called the ex-
pertinent at an end for the day they
returned to camp duties, perfecting
arrangements for their long stay. In
the late afternoon they played base
ball, went swimming, fished. None
Of the men look on the hard work
that Is confronting them as other
than a congenial summer outing.
A little before q. m. the men
sauntered out of the front door of
the penitentiary. 1t was dark be-
cause Of a clouded sky, and had any
wished to escape it would have been
simple matter to slip away in the
darkness.
But no man wants to escape" J.
r., a former Chicago burglar, said:
I'VE think too much Of the Warden.
Since he came here in April have
gained In weight from 1876 to $50
pounds. There is not a man in this
crowd but would fight to the death
for him. He has made himself
personal friend to each one of us.
while he does not guard against
any of us breaking faith with him,
we have taken upon ourselves for
our own and his protection to estab-
lish our own guard. Without his
knowledge we have selected a secret
