PEANUT DIETARIAN
. SUED BY WIDOW.
AURORA ILL. March 26. Dr. J. T.
Allen president of Aurora college who
gained wide notoriety through a sixty
days' diet on peanuts has become em-
broiled with a pretty and vivacious
widow whom he has refused to pay
for teaching In his school charging
that she flirted with the pupils.
Mrs. Leegson says that Allen owes
her $37 for more than a month's ser-
vices as teacher and private secreta-
ry. She sued him and obtained "a Judg-
ment of $26 In Justice Van Osdel's
court today.
"The boys were continually teasing
me about Dr. Allen and I always de-
fended him. My reward Is his refusal
to pay me the little money-that I earn
ed a dozen times over In reading and
answering stacks upon stacks of let-
ters on peanuts.
"I thought that he was a genius
but I found that he' Is 'a fake" said
the little woman as she; dabbed her
eyes. Allen's attorney's attempted to
put the woman's character Jh question
on cross-examination but the judge
arose in wrath and halted them.
"I will- allow no woman's character
to be defamed .in my court" shouted
the jurist.
R. 'Y. Peyton has returned from the
Ike Brown ranch where ho went to
spend a few days fishing.
