MAKES HIS
GETAWAY

Hutt vs.. Hutt divorce case, which
attracted considerable attention in
the District court here last week,
the plaintiff, Albert Hutt, takes an
unannounced departure from
Monte Vista early last Monday
morning in the automobile of
Amos Mott, and journeyed down
into New Mexico, where he must
be of the opinion that it will be
better for his health Judge Hol-
brook awarded Mrs. Hutt $500
damages and alimony in this case
with rather stringent strings there
to attached, and this seemed to
take all the interest young Hutt
had in this country out of him.
1t is reported that r. r. Mitchell,
his attorney had stood good for
his appearance, but before the
writ was issued for the proper
serving of the paper, the young
gentleman made his hasty exit in
to our sister state.
This case is one which brings
forth the downright cussedness
and lowdownedness of some
human beings who call themselves
men, but who are in reality para
sites sapping the milk of human
kindness. 1t was brought out at
the trial that HUT at the time of
his marriage WAS man twenty
three years of age; the bride little
girl fourteen years of age. He
takes this little girl unto himself
and in a very few weeks time
thereafter, aided and abetted by
his parents, makes life miserable
for her and conditions 80 tyranni-
cal that she is forced to leave his
bed and board and flee to her
father. He then comes to Colo
RADIO, where after a certain time he
sues for divorce, thinking that he
can take snap jugment because she
has not the money with which to
defend herself We are pleased
that in this he was mistaken. He
was slipped up on and received at
the hands of the jury and court
just about what was coming to
him He now seeks to thwart jus-
tice by slipping away from the
jurisdiction of the court. We sim
cerely hope that Sheriff Goad and
other officials will spare no efforts
to bring about his return to Rio
Grande county, and in their efforts
they will meet the hearty approval
of the people here -Prospector

THE engagement of Miss Lucretia E.
Dickinson, editress of the Itasca County
Independent, to Mr.. Chas. H. Fink, of
Pittsburgh, has been announced. Some
time ago it was rumored that Miss Dick
inson was to hold down a position with
one of the Duluth papers, and the Mirror
was silently mourning her loss from the
Independent, as she has certainly made the
Independent dandy little paper, but we
were solaced in the fact that we would
still be able to read her ''dope in the
Duluth paper. To have this later an
nouncement come is body blow, so to
speak, and we cant figure out why the
people up in Itasca county intend to allow
it-although we doubt if they have any say
in the matter. Miss Dickinson certainly
has the congratulations of the Mirror
force.

Shop E changed Irvine grades three
times last week, between sisal and standard.
This shop received two overhauled ball
ers the past week. They are working fine.
The average output of twine in E shop

your help now, but not with the man who
is already behind the bars. Start helping
those who are enjoying their freedom;
many man has landed in durance vile be-
cause of the lack of help. Help does not
always mean to spend or give money.
Kind words and advice or a position to the
man who needs it will be great help, and
about as much help as you could bestow
when man leaves prison. If you will ex-
ert the same amount of energy to helping
the man before he goes to prison as you are
willing to do when he has served his time,
you will help deplete prison populations.
The trouble with most people is that they
want to help man after it is too late.

CHAUTAUQUA

The initial meeting of the members of
the Chautauqua Circle for the year 1913
1914 was held at the Old Prison Sunday
afternoon last. Only ten members being
present and the time devoted to the cleo
ton of officers for the current year. There
was no program rendered.
BY unanimous vote the honorary office
of President was conferred upon Mr.. J. E.
NJ, our efficient librarian; and the second
airy honor-that of Vice resdency-was
accorded to Mr.. ]. W., otherwise popular
ly known as Uncle John. There were
three nominations for the office of Secretary,
the first ballot resulting in the election of
S. H. H.
Prior to adjournment and in accord with
requests for speech, our newly-elected
President made response by the delivery of
a masterful Grafton, in which he urged up
on the members the imperative obligation
of joint harmony looking towards the
good and favorable ends of the organiza-
ton. Among other points very wildly
placed before the members during this
speech was the request that every favor be
given to the selection of Give subjects
for their respective papers, and thereby add
interest and discussion to the various sub
jects.
Adjournment of the meeting was then
called, and with each member confident
that the fortunes of the organization will in
no wise suffer while in the able hands of
the newly-elected officers; and with much
pleasure do we all look forward to and
il anticipation of a more successful year
than any one of the presidents during the
life of the organization.

ton.

the dope room down there. Hope he is as
generous with his pills, as he was up here
with his smiles.
The band boys had to do some march
ing last Sunday morning, as it was too cold
to sit down. There will be few park con-
certs given after this until next spring. By
that time, we will have the new band in
struments.
A treat was given to us last Sunday
morning. A choir of fifty voices from the
Episcopal church, of St. Paul, rendered
several anthems, vocal solo and a quar-
tet. A vote of thanks is due to Rev. Ben
son for the surprise he gave us. Do it

As we promised some time ago to sup

the papers you wished, we are publishing
same this week. Make list of the ones
you wish and send same to the Mirror
Office. Do not list more than three papers
and two magazines. Contributors at both
institutions will be given the preference.
If you do not get just what you order, will
try to supply you with others. If you fail
to get the paper it will be useless to bother
