Council Bluffs will no longer b th
Oretna Oreen for flrat cousins who desire
ta become man and wife and are prohibited
by tha law of that state In which they may
reside from marrying. Heretofore th Iowa
law haa permitted tha marriage of cousins,
but thla la now changed. A law enaoted
by the Thirty-third general assembly be
came effective on July 4 and Includea first
cousins In the prohibited degrees of rela
tionship which bar marriage, and forbids
the marriage of such persons.
Two couples from out of the atate who
sought tha office of tha clerk of tha dis
trict court yeeterday In search of marriage
lloenae discovered to thslr sorrow that the
new law forbidding tha marriage of first
cousins waa now In effect.

her home waa In Butler, Mo were tha first
couple to be refuaed a license yesterday.
They were both 14 years of age and on
being asked by tha clerk If they were re
lated to on another admitted they were
flrat cousins.
"Sorry, but under the law I cannot Issue
you a license," remarked Henry Brown,
clerk of the district court, as he closed the
marriage license register with a anap which
Indicated that ha meant what he said.
"Welt, that's too bad after coming all
this distance," remarked the man; "but I
suppose tha law la th law and w are up
against It"
Tha second couple to be turned down yes
terday ram to Council Bluffs from Colo-
rado and thay appeared extremely surprised
when Informed of the new law.
"Why, when w left bom w understood
that there waa nothing to prevent cousins
from getting married In Iowa," aald tha
disappointed would-be groom.
They gave the names of Virgil Stockton,
aged 87. of Greeley, and Bertha Wilson,
aged 17. of Bouldsr.
"It Is not a pleasant duty to have to
refuse a license to thee people who eome
from a long distance expecting to got mar
ried, but th law says I must not and I
hav no alUrnatlv in th matter," said
Clerk Brown of the district court yesterday,
as he flaured that the price of two oleo
graph certlflcatee of marriage had gone
