Time.
From Saturdny'a Dally.
Tin! divorce suit brought by
Mrs. Lucile Young against her
husband, William Hex Young, was
on trial yesterday and was devoid
of sensational testimony. The
petition is based on the ground of
non-support and the plaint ilT sup
ported (lit1! allegations of her peti
tion by her own testimony, as well
as that of her father and mother,
with one or two other witnesses:
The substance of the plaintiff's
evidence was to the elf cel. that the
defendant had not contributed lo
her support since June of ill 11,
and since that time lie had resided
with his parents near Murray, and
she had gone to her former home
with her parents.
The plainlilf had introduced all
of her evidence before 2 o'clock,
when the defendant began lo in
troduce testimony on his cross
pelilion, which prays a divorce on
the ground of cruelty. The de
fendant testified in his own be
half, and his mother, Mrs! 1.
Young, his sisters, Lena nnd
Clara Young, Miss Kslher Smith,
Miss Moore, Postmaster llakcr of
Murray and others testified for
the defendant. The acts of cruelty
testified to by all of the witne sses,
except Mr. linker, who was put on
the. stand lo show the mental con
dition of defendant, consisted of
sullen conduct on the part of the
plaintitr toward defendant, nnd
many scenes where defendant was
"jawed" extensively. On one oc
casion the date alleged in I he
cross-pel it ion that defendant wns
driven from home, the plaintiff is
said to have remarked that she
"had n shotgun in the room and
that she was going to use if, too."
The testimony was to (he effect
that plaintiff started to net the
gun. but it was taken from her lie
fore the defendant's life blood
was spilled. At a time previous lo
this defendant had announced his
intention of going over to the
Missouri river, when his wife
cruelly refused to allow him to
go, and he did not go. It was also

Miss Moore was present on one
occasion when plaintiff would not
speak lo her husband when he re
turned from town with oysters,
and although there were guests in
the house plaintiff refused lo
mnke Hie oyster soup. The wit

Laid to Rest Wednesday After
noon in the Presence of Many
Friends and Relatives.
The funeral of J. V. Grassman
occurred Wednesday afternoon at
3 o'clock from his late residence
on South Tenth street, and was
largely attended by old-time as
sociates, neighbors and friends,
who came to show their respect
for one whom they had long
known and highly esteemed. The
service was conducted by llev. L.
W. r,ade and llev. W. L. Austin
and was very impressive. The
music was furnished by a quartet
from the Presbyterian church,
composed of Miss Mathilda Val
Icry, Miss Frances Weidman, O.
L. Farley and J. K. Douglass, the
hymns being favorites of the de

My Soul," "Abide With Me" and

scripture found in Job and spoke

family and relatives of the de
ceased. He dwelt upon the virtues
of the man, llev. Gade. having
called upon him recently, during
his sickness, when Mr. Grassman
expressed himself as being pre
pared to die. The minister drew
lessons from the experiences of
all mortals and their invironment,
all subjects to the same law of
change, and he offered words of
cheer in the thought that the
future home would be so much
better and more beautiful than
this earthly home; that to reach
the blest, abode and to have the at
tributes of mind and soul to fit
men for the future life is what
we most need now.
The pall-bearers were selected
from the M.AV. A. camp, of which
Mr. Grass man was a member, and
were: John Jess, George Lush

From Saturday's Dally.
Although the local strawberry
crop may not amount to much on
account of the protracted drouth,
it is a foregone conclusion that
I he copious showers of last night
will he the making of your Uncle
Jim Thomas' blackberry crop. The
lUirlington gauge showed one and
three-quarters inches of rainfall,
and the rain must have been gen
eral over eastern Nebraska.
Charles Itichey, who spent the
night with his brother, telephoned
to Louisville this morning and got
the information that the rain had
wet the ground lo a depth of six
inches. K. M. Godwin was in from
his farm, several miles out, and
from appearances the rain was
harder two or three miles west of
town than here. The wheat and
oats will be materially benefited,
as well as pastures nnd corn
fields.
He Didn't Advertise.
Itelow is printed nn item that
has been going the rounds of the
press for some time past an item
that contains a truth that is only
too true. Head it:
A hardware merchant went
home to supper one night and a
new silver percolator was on the
table. He asked his wife where
she got it and she said: "Why,
dear, I selected it out of Smith's
catalogue, and it only cost me
4 .25 and the express." Of course
the husband was mad in a mom
ent and said: "Why in the deuce
didn't you lell'me you wanted the
thing? I have lots of them in my
store nnd they only cost me $3."
Then his wife handed him one like
this; "Well, John, if you would
advertise once in a while so the
people would know you were still
in business maybe the people
wouldn't send away for so much
stuff."

Mu3t Be Getting Very Warm in
Washington When Congress
men Pull Their Coats.
The thermometer is accom
plishing more than public senti
ment ever can in bringing to a
close the sessions of congress.
The report is finding its way into
the newspapers that congressmen
are removing their coats, legislat
ing in their shirt sleeves, even
with suspenders displayed to the
shocked eyes of the newly-wed
bride in the gallery.
One may sympathize with the
sufferings of legislators who reach
the climax of their work in a hot
city. One may deplore the ten
dency to over formality, by which
our Smart Sets impose uncom
fortable restrictions. Yet if the
visible suspender habit is permis
sible in congress, why not in the
pulpit? Shall the man of God re
move the funeral Jim swagger
coat, which custom has placed up
on his hack, and permit the con
gregation to be distracted by the
lack of harmony between his red
and green suspenders and his blue
negligee shirt?
It may tie remarked that if the
congressmen had pushed the law
making machine as you would run
a factory, a session's work would
have already been ground out, so
that they could go home. Further
more, how long will it be, in these
days of unrest, before our con
gressmen will be satislled with
any such comparatively sland
pat position as removing only
their coats ami waistcoats?

Ruffner Wins Three Firsts.
At the annual opening or the
Omaha Hod anil Gun club's sport
ing events on Garter lake Mem
orial day, Horace Huffner, son of
Mr. and Mrs. 1 K. Huffner of this
city, distinguished himself by
winning three lirst prizes. In two
of the events lie was accompanied
by Harrowinan, namely "men's
canoe doubles" and "canoe tilling
contest." In the "hurdy-gurdy
race "Horace was alone. The last,
is the most dillicult of any of the
feats performed by the oarsmen.
In this event the contestants start
several feel back from the shore
and with their sixteen-foot canoes
and oars in their hands run for
the water, leaping into their
canoe, row a distance, dive into
the lake, coming up on the op
posite side of the canoe, climb in
to the boat and row away. This
is the second season Mr. Huffner
has won in this difficult contest.
Warning to Wife-Beater9.
There are a few men in Platls
mouth who do not, evidently, un
derstand the severity of the law
in reference to wife-healing. We
have heard of complaints coming
from several neighbors of wife
beating, not only once or twice,
bul it is of frequent occurrence.
No names will be mentioned now,
but they are liable to become pub
lic properly when they get on the
court records, which is very apt
lo occur if such disgraceful things
happen again. We are requested
to give fair warning, as the neigh
bors do not propose lo put up
with it any longer.

night were both grand successes.
The play was entitled "Bohemian
Amazons, or Women Suffragettes"
and was given by Ilohemian home
talent. Every member of the cast
of characters played their parts
line and merited the applause each
won by their natural true to na
ture acting. A large attendance
was present and everyone was
much pleased with the manner in
which the local players acquitted
themselves.
The dance after the play was
also largely attended and was a
most enjoyable event. The music
was furnished by the M. W A. or
chestra, which played all of the
latest thrillers. Financially and
socially the evening was a great
success. On Memorial day the
T. J. Sokols gave a fine picnic in
their park, and during the after
noon a large crowd attended. A
platform dance was an enjoyable
feature of the afternoon and even
ing. The Hurlington Route band
furnished Ihe music for the dance.
The best, of order prevailed and
the event wns one of much pleas
ure and enjoyment to all wTio wen
present.
