MRS. OGDEN  PLAINTIFF        
        IN  DIVORCE  ACTION
----------
(From Thursday’s Daily)
          Summons have been issued for a restraining order in a complaint for a divorce filed by  Mrs. Ora Ogden,  445 west Washington street, against  William H. Ogden,  in which the Shelby county board of commissioners and  Walter Bass  are named co-defendants.  The suit was filed several days ago and papers were served Wednesday evening.
          Mrs. Ogden charges abandonment, failure to provide clothing or a proper home, mistreatment and threats of whippings, failure of the defendant to meet his household accounts and threats that he will dispose of personal property valued at $1,000.  The property is in the possession of Mr. Bass and the board of commissioners, named defendants, and the restraining order was issued to prevent disposal of the holdings.
          The plaintiff asks $10 a week support in the complaint; $100 for attorney fees. $100 for the prosecution of the complaint and $100 immediate payment for her support pending action on the suit.  The couple was married August 13, 1914, and the separation occurred February 10, 1923.

WHY  PUBLISH  FALSEHOOD?
----------
George Ogden Says George Ray is a Stranger to the Truth.
----------
          The attention of  George Ogden  was called to a notice which occurred in the Liberal of Friday and Saturday to the effect that he would apply for a liquor license to run a saloon in Walkerville, and when asked as to the truth of the matter, said that it is a lie out of whole cloth.  That he never thought of such a thing nor has he ever heard of any one who contemplated starting one in that suburb.  He believes the notice was made by the Liberal to influence the fair association in their action on the selection of a custodian of the fair grounds, which was to have been considered Saturday evening, and most likely as a blackmailing scheme, which originated in the cocoanut headed editor of the Liberal, solely and for sinister purposes of his fertile and unreliable brain, and no other.
