Ef4~
T Farmers living across the river from
New Ulm are still completely cut off
so far as travel by team is concerned and
the only way to get to the city is either
by boat or train. Several of the boat
owners were doing a thriving business
the past week taking passengers and
freight across the Minnesota.
Cream and other products of the farm
were brought to the waters edge on the
Nicollet county side and then transferred
to boats.

Faopd Danger Over.

Those familiar with conditions west
of the city say that ;aH danger of flood
has passed unless "a heavy rain should
set In The showers The latter part of
last week CLEANED up what was left of
the winters snowfall and the water out
of the slpughs and ditches has already
come down. All the ice is gone and
there is NO further danger from ice gorges.
The Cottonwood, which generally is
the cause cf high water in the Minnesota
for several miles above the conflux of
the two streams, has gnne down several
feet and the ice is all gone. Last week
when the ice bgean to hreak up great
mass was Xiiled up in the field Immediate
ly below the Cottonwood mill dam.
Traffic over the bridge at that place had
to be suspended because of the deep
water covering the approaches.

NO MORE HASTY d..
V0RCES after MARCH |:

After the first day Of March hastv
divorces in Maine will be a thing Of
the past-at least until some change
shall be made in the ruling regarding.
divorces which will go into effect on
that date. TN
The justices Of the supreme court
nave made a new departure in order
ing tnat all actions entered in court
LOT oiVorce shall go over one term be-
iore oelng heard. This Is plainly stat
ca TO be for the express purpose Of
putting stop to possible abuses in
that line and giving fair treatment to,
all parties concerned.
Hitherto 1t has been possible to rush
divorce case through the courts. the!
hearing and decision being made at!
the same term Of court as entered. This
Is considered by the judges to be a,
dangerous practice, for several reason.
For instance, one party to the action
may be In a distant state or far
away and 1t might be impossible for
MIN or her to arrive in Maine within
the time required for serving notice
or the libel which has been fourteen
days. number Of abuses Of the d.
Vorce privilege have become a. matter
OF court history. working a hardship
on the people involved
Then, too. it is considered that a
postponement Of trial for the interval
or at least three months Intervening
between civil terms Of the supreme
court may lead to further reflection and
possible adjustment Of differences
and lead to reuniting Of couples who
may be hasty in their attempts to Sc
cure the severing Of marriage ties.
The divorce evil has occupied the at
tention Of leading minds Of the conn
try for years, and the Maine Judges
have taken the position in their new
ruhng which appeals to them as being
IN the interests Of the married per-
sons involved in temporary troubles In
their relations. The same rule will ner-
tain, 1t is understood, in the superior
courts OF Cumberland and Kennebec
counties as in the supreme court.

in search OF Eugene Kane, an EN-.
balmer, who now is the most import
ant witness in the Peck murder case.
DR.. Arthur Warren Waite, in the
latest chapter of his serial confession,
told the district attorney that he had
given Kane $4,000 to swear, II neces.
sary, that he had used arsenic in EN-,
balming the body of John 2. Peck for
burial.
Waite last night told representa-
tives Of the district attorneys office
that he had administered several va
rieties of disease germs to both Mr..
Peck and his wife, Mrs. Anna Marie
Peck.
In committing these acts, Waite de.
clared that he was under the evil in.
fluence of a force which he person..
fled as "the nan from Egypt"
Assistant District Attorney Dooling
announced today that he had learned
from Kane's wife, that Kane was the
man who exhumed the body of Mrs.
Katherine Adams. the victim in the
famous MoIineaHx poisoning case
some fifteen years ago.
IT was recalled in this connection
that the telegram received in Grand
Rapids by Percy Peck, advising him
to investigate the death Of his father
