Guthrie, O. T., May IS. (Special.) Frank S. Brown is suing his wife for divorce at Perry this week, and the tesi mony that has come out is very queer and ridulous. This case, which is before the district court along with many others, is brought by Brown because he could not force his wife to bring suit for di vorce. Mrs. Brown Is a young woman of twenty years of age very beautiful and highly cultured. The story as brought out on the witness stand is this Brown seduced the defendant while she was attending college at Hillsdale. Michigan. She was then 14 years of age. Brown, in order to avoid trouble, maried the girl, but did not live with her. Several months after the wedding Brown purchased a farm in a remote spot in Michigan and sent his young wife there. Then a conspiracy was re sorted to in order to force the young wife to institute proceedings. ' The sum of $300 was offered her if she would in stitute a divorce suit, but the girl re fused. Then the husband went in to knock the foundation from under that house. He started in to see whether his wife should love him whether he wanted her to or not. One evening when she fin ished her bowl of soup she found his false teeth at the bottom of the bowl. SHE REMOVED THEM She carefully removed them and went on with her meal undisturbed, while her husband went out behind the barn and tried to think up some new deviltry The next morning he appeared at the breakfast table and threw his bare f o t upon the table and placed them in her plate. She moved around the table and took another seat. While she was eating, he was in the habit of making her food unpalatable by performing some disgusting act. All of which Mrs. Brown stood, performing at the same time all her duties as a wife, or at least such as Brown -would allow her. The general opinion is that Brown will not get his divorce, but that Mr3. Brown will sue subsequently and get a large allimony. SENSATION AT ALVA. News reaches here that County Com missioner J. W. Lappin of Alva shot and killed his son-in-law John R. Covey a wealthy cattleman living thirty miles south of Alva. The coroner's jury re turned Its verdict and the grand jury indicted him for murder in the first degreeThe story as brought out at the inquest is as follows: Lappin and Covey have had business dealings with each other for some months Covey furnishing the money to carry on the business and Mr. Lap pin doing much of the outside work in the way of purchasing cattle, etc. For some time a difference has existed be tween them as to matters reliting to the business and they have had many wordy wars over a settlement. On Mon day last Mr. Lappin was at camp where the cattle were held and a settlement was talked of, -but evidently no conclu sion could bo reached which would be mutually satisfactory. Monday night Lappin returned home. About day break Tuesday morning Bert McCray, who together ocupied the camp cabin were awakened by the calls of some one on the outside. It proved to be Lappin. Covey arose, dressed and step ped out the door to see vhat was want ed. Lappin greeted him with a desire to settle and said he was there for that purpose. They talked for some min utes over their differences. Lappin had some papers he wished Covey to sign but was met with a refusal as to some of them, but the dead man was heard to say he would sign one of the docu ments and not another. Both men T.-ere sitting at this tim- on a box about 30 feet from the door and nearly direotly in front of it. Covey arose and walked over toward the house and stepped In side of a rope chute arranged for the purpose of catching their saddle stork He was followed by the taunts of Mi. Lappin who called him a coward and other names more forcible than el2 gant. WAS KILLED INSTANTLY. Covey, probably provoked beyond en durance, picked up a piece of tent pole about two inches square and four feet long and started from the shute toward his slayer. He never passed the rope enclosure. Lappin was armed with a shot gun which he had brought from home with him, and as soon as Covey started in his direction he started to meet him. As Covey stooped to pass between the ropes of which the fence was built he received a charge of 00 or bb shot in the left breast and was in stantly killed, and fell across the lower rope of the enclosure. The bod3' lay in this position until removed by the act ing coroner. It developed from the tes timony before the coroner that Lappin owed Covey about J2.000, and that he had endeavored to stir up discord be tween his daughter and Covey. The men had not been on good terms for a long time and both of them have the reputation of being quick and tempered and not at all given to consider the con sequences of their actions. Bert Mc- j trajf me uniy witness to wie uu.ur, is a boy about 19 years of age; he was in the employ of Covey and by his testi mony must the guilt or innocence of the accused be established. Mr. Lappin arrived in Alva about 12 o'clock and surrendered himself to the sheriff. TAKEN TO A MAD STONE. Lats evening the 3-year-old son of E. D. Kennedy, living seven miles west of Noble, was bitten by a mad dog. The dog belonged to the boy's parents and had been in the family for several years Last Saturday, after having been miss ed for several days, the dog came home looking as though he was almost starv ed to death. Friday the dog was notic ed to act queerly and was surly. He snapped at the boy as he came out of the house, but the lad thinking he was only playing started to pat him -n the head, when the dog bit him on the hand. Soon after the boy went into spasms, but later in the day appeared all right. The father will start today for Leaven worth. Kan., to take the boy to a mad stone. NORMAN BANK PROSPEROUS.

Pnrplni Population of th Eart to SU on Arid Western Lands. It has been years sinc the cry at "Westward, ho!" has been heard in the eastern states, and meantime the cities nnd thriving manufacturing centers east of the Mississippi liave been rapid ly filling to the point of overcrowding, until labor is a drug on the market. Mining, which attracted so many hun dreds of people from the east many years ago, has lost its glamour, hunting and trapping havo too many devotees already to encourage more to enter this life to-day, granger life on th western scale requires too much capi tal and the too-plentiful foreclosure of western farm mortgages has been dis couraging to those who may have been considering emigration. All these thincrs have tended to siagnate th population of the east, and the result is alarming to all concerned, capital and labor alike. An opportunity has presented itself at -last, through what is known as the Carey law, passed by the Fifty-third congress, by whioh each of eight west ern states was granted one million Ecres of arid land located within Their borders on condition that they utilize them for agriculture, through irriga tion, and prove to the secretary of the interior that their irrigation plans are feasible. Five of the eight states have accepted the proposition, and one more is ex pected to reply favorably before long. Tho national irrigation congress, a body composed of delegates from twenty-three western states, has appointed a national irrigation commission, wltich body is engaged in forming colonies to take up these arid lands and carry them on by irrigation under proper and scien tific direction. Some of the details of the scheme ore given, in tho Boaton Transcript. It is the purpose of the commission to form colonial clubs throughout the east; wherever there is a congestion of popu lation, and these clubs will disseminate information concerning the present and future possibilities of tho western coun try. It is not intended to send out sepa rate families, which would certainly become entangled in difficulties, if not properly directcu. Whole colonies are to be organized and dispatched to fa vorablo localities, with men competent to teach thorn the solution of the prob lem of irrigation and agriculture. These colonists it is proposed to organ ize on the principles upon which tho successful Mormon colonies were car ried on. An organization, to be known as the Plymouth colony, is now being formed to take up lands in Idaho. Each member of this colony is to furnish one thousand dollars capital. The land is to be taken in small holdings, and the whole managed on the basis of a co operative village. l"nTLaTco of TBIcolT.

Careful examin ation proved, however, that the water itself was as pure and clear as possible; the red effect being due to the fact that tho bottom and aides of the lake, aa well as tho few stones which were scat tered about in it, were coated most per fectly with tho red enow plant. In some places, where the water had evap orated, the withered red plants on tho soil and rocks looked exactly like dried .spots of blood. Nataro's Lightning Rod. M.

In the sum mers of 193 and 1S94, the two scientists mentioned spent 109 days in the great forests between Moscow and Kemereff, and during thnttime found 597 trees that had recently been struck by lightning. Of tho total number of marked trees 02 were found to be white poplar (pop ulus alba this notwithstanding tho fact that that species is not any ways near as common as a half dozen or doz en other varieties.

Oats and Provisions Hare Nothing to do but to Follow Predictions of HeaTy Trosts In the Corn States Starts a Scare at Hn;e Dimensions and That Cereal GoesCrazy with an Energy Which Lands it One and Five-Eighths Cents Higher Expected Break in Wheat FaUs to Ma terializeOld Hands Well Fooled. Chicago, May IS. Corn led the dance on the board of trade, jumping cent and closing is$ cents higher, at 53 cents for July. The cold wave scare caused the advance. July wheat gain ed lit: cents, September oats 1 cents and provisions closed at advances. Almost every commission man and speculator of experience advised their customers and told their friends be fore the market opened that the in evitable break in the wheat market would be realized today. How much they were mistaken they began to real ize when, after a decline of cent per bushel as the result of all the efforts of the entire local talent, bunched to gether on the selling side, the price was gamboling around 722-'. cents per bushel for July, about half an hour from the close. That Avas quite a con trast with 69:r cents, although some it- sales were maae near the opening. July started with sellers at 70 cents, but no buyers until it had been ofTered down to 69r cents, and in some in stances as low as 69 cents. It re covered gradually to TO-V, cents but for and hour and a half there was enough wheat on sale at anything. When, however, heavy frosts were predicted for South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri, threatening the destruc tion of the corn which is now so prom ising, and the price of corn began to shoot skyward, wheat could no longer be controlled and jumped about for about one rcinute to 70'i cents, rose again to 72'i cents and closed with buy ers at 71 cents. The ordinary mark et news was not much heeded apart from what referred to the reported damage to the growing crop. The northwestern ieceipts at Minneapolis and Duluth were 207 cars, against 2S5 a year ago. For this week the car loads received at Minneapolis and Duluth have been COO less than on the corresponding week of last year.

There was a scene of wild excitement on the curb at the produce exchange today. The reguar wheat market closes Saturday at Li o'clock and for an hour af terwards cr until Chicago closed, traders stood around and traded in an unofficial way. Usually the curb Is a tarn affair Tday it was a bedlam of noises. Out siders had been heavy sellers all the morning, causing quit a decline in wheat and closing figures showed a net loss of about it cent. Thi3 left the feeling rather weak and when cold wea ther stories struck the market ,lt was unprepared. In fifteen minutes prics jumped up a cent a bushel and during the hour 2 cents. July closing at 73. cents, rushing up to 75U cents on th curb. Then everybody wanted to sell some on the rise and this knocked off a cent, the market finally being very unsettled.
