SIOL'X CITT, la., Dec. Fpecial Tele gram.) C. F. Oil!, a prominent stockman of Sioux City, has tiled In the district court a petition asking that his mother-in-law be ejected from his horn. The ictlon is retaliatory on the part of the defendant, who alleges that the mother-ln-luw has conspired with his wife to drive him away from home and compel him. at the price af domestic pc. to dee and transfer his property to his wife. Gill lurlher states that the unfriendly feeling between himself, wife and mother-in-law results from the losing of a fortune by bad In vestments. When Mr. and Mrs. Gill were married In 10. the defendant asserts he was worth I1b.0. most of which amount lie has lost since. too much of th apparatus. The terms are short.

MAN WHO CARRIES LIFE PASS Has Ridden on It Fiery Dwy lr fifteen ear a Price Paid for Rlht-f.sy. We were traveling througn Texas and stopped at a little tettlenment In til" woods. The only passenger that boarded the train at the stopping place was an old man, and when we say old we mean very old. He S'err.ed a relic of antediluvian times, as much out of place on a railw.iy as a mastodon would be In a modern menagerie, j He did not seem to be traveling for pleas ure. The passing landscape had no Interest for him. When the conductor came through lr seemed inclined to Ignore the old nan and . pass him without collecting the fre. The , old man, however, declined to be ignored, j r i vui ail niani" . .ti i i v v - ' -..,, and greasy account book and from that ex tracted a pass that was nearly wotn to rags. The conductor with an air of im patience looked at It carelessly and pa."e on. The old man, apparently satisfied that he had forced the conductor to note the fact that he had a pass, sank back Into his senile reverie and rumination. At a sta tion about thirty miles up the road he got off. moving slowly and with difficulty. The possession of a pass by one so little likely to have It excited our curiosity and we dug the history of It out of one of the brakemen. When the road was budding through that country the old man owned a piece of land ti-.rough which it was de sired to obtain a right of way. Tie old man fought the company vigorously and j refused to gfve or sell them a tight of wstj through his land except on condition tlia: he have a pass. Not an annual pass, but a life pass. The company tried to bluff him. but fhe old man didn't bluff worth a cent and when the company started to build across Mr land the old man came out with the old riflo ho had carried at San Jacinto and , cheerfully informed tha foreman that ha1 would shoot the first man that tree passed j on his land. The old man was then 7. end. i as his tenure of a life pass, promised to be j short, the company finally agreed to his terms. The road waa completed nnd the i jld man by virtue of his pass rode on the I first train through, which was. by the way, i the first railroad train he had ever seen. I That was fifteen years ago, and every day, rain or shine, since then the old man has ridden on that road, sometimes in one direction, sometimes In ths other, nut never further than would enable him to getVhome the tame day on the next train coming back. His life pass has been worn almost to shreds. Every conductor on the road knows him and would fuln dispense with the trouble of taking his number, but the old man Is bound that the company shall treat him Just as It would any other pas senger and always Insists on presenting his pass and having it entered in the con ductor's book. The brakeman said that the old man had received from $3 to to worth of transporta tion every day for fifteen years, and. while Tie looked feeble, he would probably live to j get the worth or that pass, rue nation ; where he gets on is a flag station,- which I makes It ail the more- aggravating, as nlnr times out of ten he Is the only passenger I the train haa to stop for. and every time a j train stops it means a loss oi collars in stopping and starting Kinsley Mercury.
