a divorce yesterday from her hus-
band, Eugene Bessette, was denied
a legal separation on the grounds
of not having been a resident of
this county for six months preced-
ing the filing OF the suit
Outside of the judicial action
above taken, this case is an interest
ing one and has the flavor of being
a matrimonial event with a cyclonic
environment. The records of the
court in this city reveal the fact
that the woman was divorced from
Mike Rolf on May /, of last year,
and on July II, 1912, she was mar
ried at Gallup, NJ NJ, to Mr.. Bes-
settle. Shortly afterward they re
moved to Gold Roads, and accord
ing to her allegations in the COM
plant seeking a divorce, it was a
stormy honeymoon from the start
She alleged that Bessette gave her
three black eyes in one day, when
the marital bonds were severed. She
came to Jerome Immediately and on
January of this year filed her second
divorce action.

GERMAN DIRIGIBLE
IN HANDS OF FRENCH

LUNEVILLE, April 3-The Ger
man military dirigible airship, the
Zeppelin ~, made a landing on the
military parade grounds here today
and was seized by the French au-
thorities. The incident caused ire
mendous excitement.
The German officers explained
they had been lost in the clouds
and did not know they had crossed
the frontier. Inhabitants of the cas-
tern frontier regions of France have
much agitated the last few weeks
by reports that German dirigibles
were observed or heard nightly how
ering over the forts, but the stories
were never substantiated. LunevilIe
was therefore startled when the air
ship appeared at great height in
the clouds coming in the direction
of Nancy. 1t was apparent that the
pilot was having a battle with the
wind that he was making an effort
to reach the earth. Finally a safe
landing was made on the parade
grounds where two squadrons of
cavalry were drilling. The cavalry
men cought the ropes thrown from
the dirigible which was moored Sc
curely. The local authorities and
General Lescot were summoned i'm
mediately and a huge crowds of ex-
cited people gathered 1t required
the efforts of two companies OF in
fantry to keep the indigant popuiace
at a safe distance.
The airship carried ten men and
four officers in uniform. The cap
tain in charge explained to General
Lescot that the Zeppelin was TN
dergoing a test preparatory to be-
ing taken over by the war depart
ment and he and the others were
assigned to conduct the test. They
left Friederichshafen early in the
morning for Baden.
BERLIN, April 4.-The reported
arrival of the dirigible Zeppelin at
Metz with the military commission
was hailed by the newspapers here
with the greatest satisfaction. The
conduct of the French government
in releasing the airship, its officers
and crew, was highly praised

PRICES EASE OFF
DESPITE LIGHT RECEIPTS

KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS,
March 31-Although receipts of cat
tie were light last week prices eased
off 10 to rs cents on all kinds. Buy
ers have no stocks of meat on hand
to speak of, but they figure that
a good many cattle are about ready
for market. and are playing a waiting
game.
Expectations for today were not
realized, as receipts amounted to but
5000 head. the lightest Monday for
some months. Prices are steady to
10 lower today, most of the loss on
beef steers, and there seems to be a
weak and uncertain feeling in the
air, pointing to further modest de-
clines if receipts continue up to nor
NAL or better. Cows and heifers
are steady today, cows largely at
S575 to I.25, heifers $3.50 to $500,
some sales higher in each class, bulls
5000 to T.25, calves 800 to S975.
Dealers say these butcher classes are
about to receive big slash in price,
to put them in line with steers,
which have lost more proportionate-
ly lately, because of the impending
competition from Texas grass steers.
which will start running right away.
Stock cattle and feeders are
stronger today, after two slumpy
weeks. Logically stock cattle should
be at their strongest now, with grass
almost here. Texas sales of stock
cattle for northern pastures are be-
ing made at record figures. and con-
servative cattlemen say that cattle
bought by the head there are costing
more per pound than are cattle
bought on the markets. Beef short
age is an actual fact, however. and
stock cattle prices are legitimate at
almost any figure. Quarantine re-
ceipts are light today, also supply
from Western sugar mills. The
Johnson guarantees brought $8.6s
today, heifers at $500, sugar mill
steers $40, bulls 800.
Hog receipts today 200 head !
fairly good when compared with re-
cent Mondays, market stronger on
light weights, which sold at 1895 to
So05, steady to weak on others, bulk |
of sales $SS5 to 5000. Pork con-
sumption is at high figure, as is
always the case when consumers /
have to choose between high cost
ing beef, pork and mutton, pork al !
ways winning out in such contests.
1t seems unlikely that receipts will
show much expansion anywhere be-
fore June, and prophets are expect
ing the market to work higher in
April.
Sheep and lambs are hanging in
the balance, with all signs favoring
a drop in prices, yet they manage
to almost hold their own. Sales
were 10 higher today, lambs largely
at $S.35 to $500, ewes up to S675,
wethers worth up TO 800, light
yearlings S75. Receipts are 5000
here today, and moderate receipts
are expected till Texa. starts run
ming sheep freely, about a month
hence.

against the commission to restrain it
from putting into force its orders in
creasing the tax assessments for the
year 1918. The three federal judges
who heard arguments on the applica-
ton have reserved their decision, the
temporary injunction issued by Judge
