W. Brown's petition for divorce from Charles City, Ia., but stated in his petition that owing to his domestic troubles he | has forever left that town and is now | seeking a new location. He fears that his | wife will not only follow him to his new location, but will bring her mother also, | and this is one of the many grounds on | which Attorney Brown asks the court to sever the matrimonial bonds. Attorney Brown was married in Ohlo in | September, 1893, where he lived until the | spring of 1902, when he moved to Charles City. His wife's parents, who had t home with him since his marriage, also | moved, continuing their residence with | him and partaking of his bread, for which, be alleges, they pald absolutely mothimg. Beginning the recital of his domestic troubles Attorney Brown alleges that his wife's parents are possessed of uncontrel- lable tempers, which they continually vented on him so ae to make life almost unbearable. His mother-ia-law, he al- leges, was particularly abusive toward him Further he alleges that his wite and her bor and this led to a long and bitter quar- profitable client. On another occasion his mother-in-law caused trouble by circulat- ing stories about a young woman stenog- rapher in his office and he was forced to discharge the young woman, and it wi only by mere chance that he missed a sl der sult In connection with the affair. Then he employed a young man, & relative, In his office, and alleges that his mother-in- law circulated false stories about him and wrote to the young man's people, and he had considerable trouble in prevegting her from being arrested by the federal author- ities for unlawful use of the malls: Attorney Brown says that the treatment he recelved from his wife and her mother caused him to lay awake at night in con- stant fear and trembling of what next might happen. He at one time threatened to o der his mother. W out of the house, but his wife sald she would go also, and he d sisted. Matters, however, reached such a distressing stage and his health became so impaired that Attorney Brown states thit he at last decided that unless he wished to fill a premature grave he had better we- cure a divorce and a new location for the practice of his profession.

Plerce of Carson, this county, for a writ of habeas corpus directed againat 8. T. Perry, a constable of Oakland. On August 1 E. Doolittle, a resident of Careon, filed an information before Justice Butler of Oakland charging Dr. Plerce with violating the rules of the State Board of Health and of the Local Board of Health of Carso by not reporting a case of scarlet r last June. The case was tried before a jury which found Dr. Plerce gullty and Justice Butler fined the physician $256 and costs or seven days in the county jall at Avoca. Dr. Plerce questioned tho jurisdiction of the court on the grounds that the offense alleged was an indictable one and that the Justice only had the right to hold a pre- liminary hearing and not decide the gullt or innocence of the accused. Plerce refused to pay the fine and hu nominally been in custody of Comstable Perry but has not been placed in the county Jall. Dr. Plerce is one of the best kpown physiclans in this section of the state. Davis selis paints. ‘Will Doubtless Sue for Taxes. County Attorney Killpack, on his return to the city yesterday, was advised of the action of the Portland Gold 'Mining com- pany of Colorado in authorizing the board of directors to dissolve the Jowa incorpora- tion and relncorporate in some other state to avold the attempt to assess it for taxa- tion here. He said: “I belleve that the county board will take #tops to enforce the collection of the tax, but whether it can be done or not is & ques: tion. In the event of the assessment be- ing held legal and valid, it is a question how the tax can be collected. The com- pany has no visible property in Pottawat- tamie county that can be levied upon. It might be that & judgment might be ob- tained in the court and the judgment transcripted to Colorado and execution had there, but at this time I cannot state what course will be nursued. I have no doubt, however, but the county will make a test case of it, as $290,000 In taxes is certainly worth going after even if the county falls to land it. . ¥.
