BIG fine FOR
HEART BREAKER
Crosby Jury Awards Sc, $50 10 Hus-
hand For Alienation o. Wife's
Affections.

Minot, Jan. 8.-A verdict for
$6, $50 was returned by the jure
in the district court of Dividy
county at Crosby yesterday in
the case of A. HI, Cole against
Joseph. Hawkey. The case was
for the alienation of the affec-
tions of the wife of the plain
tiff.
The case has some pathetic
angles. The defendant, accord
ing to the testimony adduced
at the trial. was living at the
home which he despoiled. He
gradually began making love
to the wife, who in time lis
tened to the song of the siren
and fled with the man who
claimed ,he was in love with
her. taking one of her two,
children with her.
The plaintiff is farmer own
ing large farm in the vicinity
of Wildrose where the plaintiff
also lives. 1t is asserted the
Judgment of the court will be
easy to collect as he is rather
well to do.
Some of the scenes in the
court room during the trial
were pathetic. The broken
hearted husband cried as some
of the witnesses testified con-
cerning the conduct of the
wife. The story seems to have
added years to his life. He is
broken up over the intidelity of
his wife.
There were two children in
the shattered home. One, a
boy IL years old, was left when
the mother went to live with
her paramount. The other, a
girl of 5 years old, she took
with her.
Attorneys E. X. Sinkler and
ID. C. Greenleaf of this city re-
presented the plaintiff.

appear from the warning made

presumed to represent. But it
is evidently the procuring of

necessary to operate two

Of the mist desirable locations
in the city. The city may, if
the Jail is sold, make contract
with the county commissioners
to use the county Jail, as is
done by the United States
government at the present
time.
The old days, when the city

drunks, has passed. declared
President johnson. Instead
of hiring a pelice force to
round up the victims of the

have been utilizing their time
running down the rumsellers.
That's why the number Of ar
rests have decreased SO materi-
ally.

First--Grcat Britain, through an in
terview given the United Press by
Lloyd-George. has plainly said "hands
off'-that any attempt by the United
States to inereede in behalf of peace
would be regarded with hostility.
Second-The political situation in tho
country has aroused to u marked degree
partisan feeling for one or the other Of
the warning sides. 1t has resulted in
stirring up a feeling abroad that tho
United States is not "strictly neutral"
And as President Wilson recently said
in an address at Shadow Lawn, this
feeling has reached a point where even
diplomatic intercourse between this
country and foreign nations will be Sc.
riously embarrassed until after Novem-
her 7, "bccausc foreign diplomats are
waiting to see what will be the outcome
of the election.
End of War Far Off.
Perhaps no expression by the presi-
dent in recent months has aroused so
much conjecture here rs that in Omaha
Thursday night when he said;
"Whcn we look forward to the years
to como--I wish | could say the months
~ fOlHc-dHu w lhC tnu VI thio war, No
want to world to know we are ready to
lend our force TO the preservation of
peace"
This is regarded here as plainly>dndi-
cative that the president feels the end
of the war may be far off-and also
that he feels tho work of America will
be to preserve the peace OF the future,
not to intervene now.
From those close to the president
comes the word that he knows moth
ing regarding report that Ambassador
Gerard is bringing with him TO this
country a request of the German govern
mcnt to interccde in behalf of peace.
But there is u strong belief in official
circles here that the president will con-
slider no further move either directly or
indirectly toward offering his good Of
fees unless such plea is made openly
by one or more Of the belligcrent ma
tions.
