In district court last Monday morn
ing Judge Dickson ordered Lily B. t
Monroe Wood, who was granted a
decree of divorce from Charles L.
Wood on November 4, 1912, on the
ground of cruel and Inhuman treat
ment to personally appear in court in
this city at 10 a. m., on January 11,
1913, and show cause why the decree
of divorce should not be vacated,
annulled and set aside because of de
ception and imposition practiced up

divorce.
Sheriff Grady returned last Monday
afternoon fromLincoln having in custo*
dy R. A.Livington.wbo was arrested by
the police of thatolty.upon the request
of the Holt county official. Livings
ton was arrested upon the charge of
forgery, the complaint being sworn to
by County Attorney Whelan and the
warrant issued on November 2, last.
The complaint charged that- R. A.
Livingston and his brother, D. J.,
forged two checkB, one for $35.00 and
the other for $40.00, upon which they
received the money and left the
country. The checks were signed
J. E. Hutton and were cashed in the
store of Harry Shank at Stuart. We
understand that the Livingston’s
are nephews .of Hutton and that he
gave each a small check for some
work done for him. The checks were
written in lead pencil and Livingstons
erased the amount called for in the
checks and raised the amount of each
one. Young Livingston is now in the
county jail and will probably have a
preliminary hearing the latter part of
the week or the first of next week.
D. J. Livingston, the other party to
the forgery,has not been apprehended.
