JESSE GRANT LOSES
SUIT FOR DIVORCE,

BY a decision filed during the week
the state supreme court upheld the
decision of the Esmeralda county
district court in the divorce suit OF
Jesse K. Grant against Elizabeth
Chapman Grant, In which a decree
was refused.
II will be remembered that Grant
who is a son of the late President
Grant. filed his claim for divorce at
ter supposedly living the required
time In Goldfield, but during the
of the trial it developed that
his residence was a number of days
short. On this showing Mrs. Grants
attorneys beat the case. Grant then
brought the ease up in the supreme
court, with the result above
mentioned.
Jesse Grant is now and has been
practically for twenty-five years a
resident of San Diego and Mrs. Grant
is living with relatives in San Fran

FURTHER COMPLAINTS
MADE OF COYOTES

Sheriff Lamb has received a letter
from AssembIyman Baber stating
that two rabid coyotes had been Kill
cd since Saturday at the old military
post near McDermot. The letter SAID
that the situation was assuming a
serious aspect around McDermot n
that the rabies seems to be spread
ing rapidly among coyotes and AMI
mails which have been bitten. says
the winnemucca Star.
II would seem, from the situation
that exists along the Nevada, oregon
and Idaho boundary, where o all
accounts a reign of terror exis's
among the people on account oil the
prevalence of rabies among coyotes,
that IT is about time for the govern
ment or officials of this state TO DO
something to stamp out the disease
and protect the people.
In Oregon the Legislature recognlz-
ed the situation by increasing the
bounty on coyotes to SO apiece. The
Nevada legislature also passed a bill
to increase the bounty on these ant
mails, but the governor vetoed the
bill because it provided that the
bounties we're to be paid by the state
instead of by the counties.

FIND TREASURY SHORT

Judge c. E. Mack, has gone to
Hawthorn to appear in the district
court in an action filed there recent
ly by the trustees of the Aurora
lodge of Odd Fellows against Chris
Jochumsen. formerly OF the
lodge. The lodge is suing Jochum-
sen for the recovery of ~$1,4S4.12, 1t

balance when Jochumsen retired as
treasurer. The matter comes up be-
fore Judge Walsh on a demurrer fill
ed by Jochumsen to the complaint.
The lodge asks a lien in attach
mem on property owned by Jochum-
sen, who is a pioneer resident of
Aurora.
Judge Mack in discussing the case
stated that shortly after he was
elected grand master of the Grand
Lodge of Odd Fellows of the state,

ed him to examine the books of the
lodge, saying that they feared there
was a shortage. He went to Aurora

'YAzOO CITY WOMAN
FREED Of MURDER
TWO JUSTICES AcouIT MRS,
STRONG FOR KILLING BRO
THER.lN-LAW OVER SISTER.

Yazoo City, Miss, Sept. 21.-Mrs.
Robert Strong, of Bentonia, who Sat
urday night shot and instantly killed
her brother-in-law Garnett Nolen, at
his plantation near Satartia, in the
southern part of the county, was i'm
mediately acquitted yesterday morn
ing at the preliminary hearing held at
the scene of the shooting by Justice
d. F. Roberts and Justice e. S. Bell.
The acquittal verdict came after the
Justices had announced that the evil
dence showed Mrs. Strong clearly act
ed in self-defense and in defense of the
life of her sick sister, Nolen's wife,
whom she was nursing.
Nolen's father, after visiting the
scene and viewing the body of his
son, said that he did not wish to have
anything done in the matter.
+, Nolen, evidence at the hearing de-
veloped had been on drunken de-
bauch on blind-tiger whiskey for some
three weeks. He had repeatedly
threatened, ran the testimony, both
to take the life of Mrs. Nolen and
that of the physician who was treating
her Dr. Crisler, of Satartia. At the
time of the tragedy he came into the
room intoxicated, sat on the bed be
side his wife, told her with an oath
that he was tired of the whole bust
ness" and that he had in his pistol 9
bullet for her, one for DR.. Crisler and
one for himself.
Mrs. Strong had been sitting neal
the bed during Nolens TRADE. Sud
denly he rose and drew heavy pisto
from his pocket Mrs. Strong rushed
at him and managed to wrest the gur
from his grasp. Turning upon her
Nolen tried to take the pistol ava!
from her, and in the struggle that en-
sued Mrs. Strong fired, instantly kill
ing Nolen.
Before her marriage a few year.
ago, Mrs. Strong was Miss June Lo
gan. Her sister, Miss Ruby Logan
married Nolen several years age
They have four children. Their dc
mestic life was viewed as ideal say
on the occasions when Nolen becam
intoxicated, when he was particular
, abusive to his wife. He was "a year
