Story Writer and Famous
Athlete Visit Carson City

{. E. Van Loan, the writer, who
sells much of his stuff to the Satur-
day Evening Post, and w. w. Bacon,
now an orange grower near Los An
geles, but once upon a time a famous
athlete, came to Carson this morning
in their auto. They have been max
ing a tour of the sagebrush country
just for fun, and Mr.. Van Loan is
gathering material for future stories.
Van tells the following about an in
cident on their trip:
His regular name is Williamson
Wade Bacon, but his friends, taking
pity on him, have agreed to call him
Bill-plain Bill.
Bill is taking his first trip through
Nevada and learning a great many
things, for instance, the effect of al
titude upon the human lungs. In his
younger days Bill was a star athlete
"a sprinter a hurdler and a football
player. He is now a farmer and
much interested in live stock. Ri
fus Steele's stories of the wild
horses of Nevada have always pos
sessed a great fascination for Bill
Bacon.
A few days ago while driving an
automobile along the excellent road
between Eureka and Austin, Bill
came upon a band of wild horses.
The band separated leaving a horse,
a mare and a tiny colt behind. The
trio made several attempts to cross
the road ahead of the car but each
time Bill stepped on her and head
ed them off. The race lasted for five
miles and the colt began to drop be-
hind. Bill had an inspiration,
Il will slow down." said he, let
the old ones cross the road and then
head off the colt"
The program worked excellentiy
and the colt wabbling along fifty
yards in the real of its mother, found
the way b~lockaded by an automobile.
This so amazed 1.-THE little creature

to Pay
Wife AlimOnv

Lillian P. Dale, who divorced Fran
els Colgate Dale in Reno a year ago,
has brought suit in a New York
court for $l5O,OOO which she alleges
is due under pre-divorce agreement.
Mrs. Dale sued for separation and
alimony in New York City, but the
court refused to find in her favor.
She then obtained a Nevada decree.
She alleges this was a result of an
agreement by which her husband sti-
pulated, in June, 1913, to support her
in affluence for life if she did pot
ask for alimony in her divorce de-
cree or for the custody of their child,
Francis Colgate Dale, Jr.
Despite this agreement, Mrs.
Dale asserts, her husband has re-
fused to contribute anything to her
support since last March. She says
he has an income of about 100000
a year and is we'll able to pay her
$4,000 for her support the remaind-
er of her life. He contends the al
legged pre-divorce agreement as
against public policy and not binding
upon him.
Dale recently took unto himself
a second wife and the first wife had
him arrested as he was about to
start on his honeymoon trip.
