A Hearty Welcome to Omaha and Omaha's Big Cash Store is' Extended to All AkSar-Bon Visitors from Far or Near - ft- f Unusual Situation Awaits Dis trict Court Docket Is Ex ceptionally Heavy This Year. , An immense amount of business is awaiting theall term of the dis trict court which will open October 4. And a peculiar feature of the court actions this fall is the astound ing number of divorce cases. - More than half of all the cases are divorce actions. This is an almost unberieVeable proportion. A check of cases filed during the month of August shows that out of a total of 247 new cases filed in that month, 129 were suits for divorce. There were only 118 civil suits of all otlper k'nds filed in that month. This is a typical month. Most Divorces Uncontested. Most of the divorce actions are uncontested. It is the general be lief that they are agreed on out of court and the court action has come to be a mere formality to which one nf the parties pays no attention. The divorce goes by default. K , However, there will be some in teresting contested suits such as that )of Arthur Leflang. wealthy Omaha business man, against Caroline Le flang. "Dr." H. S. Kent, who faces three - serious charges connected with the placing of two newly-born infants ' in an abandoned well at Thirty-third and California streets eight weeks ago and who is in the county jail, unable to get bond of $15,000, will face a jury this -term. , .Another Notorious Case. Another notorious case scheduled to come to trial is that of Dr. L. S. Fields .local physician, charged with causing the death of Miss Ruth Ayer of Hayes Center. Neb., by an illegal operation, August 8. The girl's lov er, Francis W. Alexander, and the nurse in the case. Mrs! Minnie, Deyo. are also to be tried for aiding and abetting Dr. Fields in the affair. A breach of promise suit which is scheduled for this term of court be fore "12 good men and true" is that of beautiful Gertrude Craig against Joseph Leopold, wealthy grain man. Miss Craig alleges that Leopold pro posed marriage to her, showered her with gifts and then didiv't carry oiit the .alleged contract. She asks $50, .000 from him. M. F. Shafer's suit for $2.i0,000 against D. W. Gciselman and offi-. cials of the American State banV for alleged conspiracy is on the docket for this term of court. Fou Omaha Policemen.
