Mrs. Emma HibIer Gets
Divorce and S9,0 900 AIimon>

Fremont, Neb,;- July Especial
Telegram .)-Mrs. Emma Hibler was
given decree OF divorce from Samuel
D. Hibler and 'alimony of $4,000 in
the district court here today by Judge
Button. The case was heard two ago.
Mrs. Hibler charged a sister law,
Mrs. Frances Hibler, with alternating
the affections of her husband. Mrs.
Frances Hibler kept house for the de-
fendant while the plaintiff visited in
Colorado during the summer of 1915.
When she returned she testified that
the sister-in-law had taken her place
in the affections of her husband.
In his decision Judge Button said
he found that the defendant and his
sister-in-law had never been guilty of
any improper relations. On the other
hand he held that the defendant had
been guilty of extreme cruelty in
bringing his sister-in-law into his
home without the consent of his wife.
The maiden name of the plaintiff,
Emma Brown was restored. Mrs.
Hibler is the daughter of David
Brown prominent Maple Township
farmer.

5 MILLIONS MORE
BY LAST SESSION
State Auditor Reports This Ex-
cess Was Appropriated by
Nebraska Lawmakers
of This Year.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)


Lincoln, Neb., July 9.-(Special. y
The last session of the legislature is
responsible for expenses and appro-
priations of $3,000,000 more than the
previous session, according to the re-
port of State Auditor Smith just from
the printer.
1t is difficult to estimate the exact
amount because part of the appropria-
tions are raised by special levies, and
as there is no way OF telling just the
valuation of the state at this time. the
estimate is not reliable.
According to the auditor. the spe-
cial levies, which amount to a total
OF 4.68 mills, will bring i'll $4,7l0894.
This is based on an estimated state
valuation of $5,000,000 more than last
year. However, with one-third of the
counties reporting, the increase is
now more than 100000, so that it
is safe to say that the increased valus-
tion will raise an amount something
over $5000,000, which will make the
total appropriation of the last ses-
sion run over the $l0,000,000 mark,
as the appropriations from the gen.
eral fund amounted to $4,oS3, 295.04,
which, with the estimate of $4,7l0,894,
the first special levy estimate made
by the state auditor, which he now ad-
mits was much too low, will run the
total appropriations for the biennium
over the $l0000,00O mark as against
appropriations of the previous legis-
lature which were S7,273,70l. .38.
