Lincoln, Neb.—The annulm ent of ■
divorce 18 year» u fter her • huu-
baud'» ilen tli and 41 years ufter
Ihe decree was (¡ranted Is sought by
Mrs. Nancy E. Dermlt of South Sioux
City, Neb.
Mrs. Derinit, who Is seventy-two
years old. was not uwure until ufter
the deuth of her husband, u Civil war
veteran, that site had been divorced
from him. In 1884, the couple hud
trouble and separated and Mrs. Der-
mil began suit for divorce, llefore
Ihe decree wus granted, however,
there was a reconciliation, and they
begun living together ugain, two more
children being born.
Mrs. Dermlt did not notify her a t­
torney to cease elTorts to obtuln the
divorce, she says, and he went uheud
and got It. It Is now held th at the
divorce was Illegal without her ap­
pearance or testimony, but attorneys
cannot find any way to prove that
»lie and iter witnesses were not pres­
ent.
The Judge who grunted the divorce
and the clerk of the court are now
dead.
Mrs. Derinit cunnot go into
court to have tiie divorce annulled,
as her husband would have to be
named defendant In th at case. A suit
cannot be brought directly against the
d istrict court.
When Dermlt died In 11)10, Mrs.
Derm lt applied to the pension depart­
ment and
was then th at the divorce
was revealed.
The couple lived In
Iowa for years and that stnte recog­
nizes u common law m arriage, which
their union was a fte r the divorce.
T he pension departm ent does not rec­
ognize common law m arriages.
Several bills have been Introduced
in congress to perm it her name to be
placed on the roll of widows entitled
to a pension, but none of them has
passed.
An appeal from the pension board's
decision to tiie United S tates Supreme
court Is being considered.
If Mrs. Dermlt succeeds, she will
be entitled to $4,500 hack pension and
$30 a month.
Montana Tree Disease
Destroys Scotch Firs
A deudly tree disease, known as
rhahdocllue, introduced into Britain
a few years ago with a consignment
of Douglas firs fgom Montana. Is
sweeping across Scotland and the
south of England. E xperts ure buf
fled, and consider that, w afted by the
wind, this disease will eventually wipe
oul the m ajority of this type of fir
throughout tiie British Isles.
Tiie diseuse first uttacks the leave*
Fungus spore gathers, usuully on the
under surface of the leaf. The leaves
die, and within three or four years the
tree is entirely denuded of leuves and
dies also.
T here are three members of the
Dougins Hr family, the Oregon, the
blue, which is popular in the south of
Kuglund for its beuuty, and the Inter
m ediate. A curious feature of this
epidemic is that so far It has h a td h
touched the Oregon, while its viru
lence among the other two specie*
grows fiercer.
European Air Courses
to Be Marked at Night
Le Bourget, France.—Night flyers
soon will have good signal lights by
which to ste er their course on four
a ir highways.
Tiie wuy from Burls to London,
Brussels, M arseilles und Perpignan
will be marked with orange-colored
neon electric lights which will flash
continually the Morse code for the
letters that will Identify them.
T here is but little flying in the dark
as yet, but in every way French avi­
ation Is trying to prepare for the im­
minent development of night travel.
One branch of this work Is the tra in ­
ing of pilots to steer by instrum ents
alone. The men ure taught by han­
dling planes, In which they are en­
closed In a durk cabinet, while a n ­
other pilot who cun see the ground
prevents accidents by correcting e r­
ro rs through double control.

A victory for Estacada will mean, at least, a tie for the
championship of the Portland Valley League. Of the last
eleven games played, Estacada has won ten. Sunday will
probably be your last chance to see this team in action here.
