Wants Marriage Annulled.
A special from Humboldt says ;
- 'lrs. Maud Morris of this city
has through her attorney asked
the district court to pass upon
and desso1\'e the bonds which
have for two yeaas supposed to
bind her to Frank Norris ? a barber -
er who has worked in this city ,
Tecumseh and other pIa l c e s
throughout this part of the s ate.
The plantiff alleged that some-
thing like three years ago she
was married to Morris : but has
recently descovered that at the
time the ceremony was performed
Morris had another wife living
from whom no divorce had been
obtained. The present whereabouts -
abouts of : Morris arc ; not known
but the complainant has for some
months with her little child been
making her home with her par-
ents , : l\Ir and .VIrs. : ! J. Vance in
this city. The girl who was
married when quite young has
been raised from childhood here
and her family is well and favor-
ably known. Morris is of a roving -
ing and careless disposition and
has utterly failed to provide for
his wife and child.
Hay Barn Burned.
The big hay barn owned by A.
R. Goolsby and located east of
the Burlington depot was burned
to the ground about ten o'clock
Sunday night. With the build-
ing were , destroyed , twelve head
of blooded hogs , about twenty
tons of hay , considerable grain
I
and some valuable tools. 'hen
the fire was discovered the roof _
was beginning to blaze and owing
to the character of the building .
the work of destruction occupied " 1
hut a short time. The blaze
could be seen all over the city S
and far out into the country
Mr. Goolsby carried about 5500
insurance on the buildings and .
contents , but this will not nearly
cover the 10sR. It was supposed
that the fire was started by
tramps who had gone into the .
barn to sleep. ,
Revengeful Hoboes.
,
Saturday night Officers Brown ' . . * - "
and Camblin arrested two hoboes
and placed them in the city jail ,
but only after a desperate strug-
gle Sunday morning the prison- I
ers were released but later went
back to the jail and in a
spirit of revenge set fire to
the straw bedding in one of the
cells The fire occasioned a great
loss of life as a hat belonging to
one of the hoboes was consumed
together with all the inhabitant : : .
thereof. The jail was uninjured .
as the fire was soon discovered
and extinguished. It is the opin- \
ion of many that these same
tramps had something to do with
the fire that destroyed A. R. -
