DIVORCE GRANTED IN TEXAS Mrs. Hay o. 1 aya Service by PnMlratlna .Never t ame to Her A Mention Evidence Mot All Adduced. Leonard Hays, a former member of the Council Bluffs police department, who was Indicted by the grand Jury on a charge of bigamy, la defendant In the district court In a suit for separate maintenance brought by his former wife, Mr. Masgle A. Hay. Hays is In a somewhat" uncomfortable posi tion, seeing that he ban taken another wife stnee he obtained In Texas" a divorce from the wife now suing him." Hays and his first wife were married In Oakland. Ia., In 1SST. On October IS, 1307, Hays brought suit In the district court here for divorce, charging his wife with cruel and Inhuman treatment. This suit was filed subsequent to the separation of Hays and his wife. A week or so later Mrs. Hay filed an answer, denying her husband's right to a divorce, and also a cross bill In which she demanded $100 per month for separate maintenance. Hays subsequently dismissed his suit for divorce In the court here and left Council Bluffs, going to Grayson county, Texas, where he Instituted another suit for di vorce. Service of notice of suit was made by publication on Mrs. Hays, but she claims to have known nothing of the suit until some time later. Hays waa granted a divorce In Texas' January 6 of this year and a few days later was married to Mrs. Roettger, with whom he had been acquainted In this city. Shortly after his marriage Hay and his new wife returned to Council Bluffs. It was but a short time after Hays' re turn to this city that the grand Jury re turned an indictment against him on the charge of bigamy. Mrs. Hays No. 1 having never dismissed her cross petition In the original divorce suit, contended that the divorce granted her husband In Texas was null and void. Mrs. Hay No. 1 was on the witness tand yesterday, as wa her daughter, Ethel Hays, a young woman 20 years of age. Mrs. Hay No. 1 accused her husband of Improper attention to other women and In support of her testimony cited one In stance when, .as she alleged, she caught him hugging the hired girl in the kitchen. The hearing was not concluded when court adjourned for the day and will be resumed this morning. Ileal Estate Transfers.

While disclaiming any responsibility, the Board of Supervisor Wednesday, at the re quest of B. R. Purdy of Oakland, whose daughter died from Injuries received In An automobile accident near McClelland, post poned action on' the four claims for dam tpes until today to permit Attorney Em met Tlnley. representing the claimants, lo present the matter before Ihe board. Whl'e consenting to grant the request the member of the board said they did so merely out of courtesy, and declared that they did not recognlie any liability on the part of the county. These claims aggre gate 146.999. County Treasurer J. W. Mitchell was au thorized to appoint collectors to collect the delinquent personal tax of 1908 and 1909, the collector to receive compensation equal to 10 per cent of the amount of the money thus recovered Into the county treasury. This authority to appoint col lectors of the delinquent personal tax Is given by a new law enacted by the state legislature at Its last session. It hod been the custom for many year past for the county treasurer to be allowed a com mission of 10 per cent for the collection of these delinquent taxes until last year, when Attorney Wadsworth brought suit In the district court to compel the county treasurer to refund to the county uch commission on the gronnds tht the lw did not provide for any such extra com pensation. The board had before It yesterday bills aggregating 1468 for expenses In connec tion with the illness and death of Mary Gathje, the 17-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Gnthje of Mlnden, who died last month from spinal meningitis. The young woman became ill while visiting with her parents at the home of Peter Lunger In Mlnden last September and the Langer home wa quarantined for several week In consequence. The total of the claim presented In connection with the illness and death .of Miss Gathje 1 said to have been the largest amount ever claimed for a single case of contagious disease In Pottawattamie county. The claim Included a bill of Mr. Langer for the board of Mr. and Mrs. Gathje and their daughter from the date of the house being placed under quarantine until the quarantine was raised after the death of the young woman. The board will hold a session today a a drainage board and take up the matter of the assessment for the construction of the Nlshnabotna drainage ditch. A lively tesslon I looked for, a Interested prop erty owner from Oakland and Hancock are expected to appear In force and pro test against the assessment of their town holdings. Marriage Licenses.

Llndqulst of Shenan doah, Ia., his three children, pending the determination of his appeal from the order of Judge Green giving the children to the mother. The order of the supreme court merely requiring Llndqulst to file an additional bond In the sum of $1,000 practically super sedes that of Judge Green of the district court. The supreme court will hear the case at the January term, during the period set apart for considering cases from the First district. In the event of Llndqulst falling to file the required bond by the time set th order of Judge Green, re-jutting the delivery or tne oiuiaren to tnetr mother will be In force. It is doubtful, however.

M'OEF. t;t"ARDItN OF OnF.I0 Jada-e Green Deeldea Mana Relatives Have Riant to Property. II. O. McGee. a well known real estate agent, wa Wednesday appointed by Judge Green of the district court temporary guardian for Jim Jensen Porenson, who ntll a short while ago resided alone at IMS South Sixth street. Sorenson who waa employed at the coal chute of the Chicago. Milwaukee A St. Paul Railroad company recently left Council Bluff and Is said to have returned to his old home In Denmark. Before leaving, Sorenson Is said to have given a power of attorney to Jamea Peterson, a fellow employe at the coal chute. The appointment of McGee as temporary guardian was made on application of Havle Roark, whose wife Is a daughter of Sorenson. Rpark Is a stationery engineer. residing at 2407 Avenue I. He and his wife have, according to their statements to the court, for some time suspected that Soren son wa more or less mentally deranged. Sorenson on the night pf September 19 told James Peterson, with whom he waa working, that he wished Tetersnn to take charge of his luncheon If he did not re turn. Sorenson did not show up again at work that night and a few days later when his daughter, Mrs. Roark heard of It, she made an Investigation, but waa unable to learn anything until Peterson some time later received a letter from New York stating that Sorenson was about to Ball for Denmark. Mrs. Roark and her hus band accepted the situation without ques tion until they learned that Peterson claimed to be In charge, under power of attorney from Sorenson, of the property owned by Sorenson at 1806 South Sixth street which Is valued at aoout 32,000. The trial of the suit of A. O. Gilbert against tho First National bank of this city to recover damages for the alleged pay ment of usurious Interest on money bor rowed at tho time he wa engaged In the Ice business, -has been completed and taken under advisement by Judge Green. Ella R. Archibald waa granted a divorce yesterday from Eugene C. Archibald to whom she was married January 2S, 1890, on statutory, grounds. Elevator Men Win Battle in Grain Exchange Peck, Peters and Niswonger Elected Protests Made on Votes for Men Now Dead. The elevator men won out In their fight with the commission men for control of the Omaha Grain exchange by electing their directory slate Wednesday. The result of the vote ws: E. P. Peck. 98: M. C. Pet ers, 86; C. E. Niswonger. 82; C. F. Davis, tO and J. B. Swearinger, 79.' The first three were, elected to succeed Q. W. Wattles, the retiring president; F. P. Klrkendall and J. B. Swearlngen. Quite a contest developed over the elec tion, as the exchange-Is now ilve years old and the Jobber and business .men of Omaha who have been holding office since the organization wa effected are stepping out to permit the grain men to take charge. - Commission men say the fight Is not over, as five protested votes are yet to be acted upon by the officers. These 'are the votes of two men now dead, the ballots being cast by their heirs. They are Guy C. Barton and Frank Carpenter. One of th other protested votes 1 that of a man under auspension and who they claim has therefore no right to vote. It Is maintained by some that th pro testa will make no difference with the re sults, as their votes were about evenly di vided, while some of the commission men claim that when the protested votes are considered the low man will be defeated by their candidate. FARM CONGRESS DELEGATES Name of Men Who Are Asked to Attend Chicago MeetlnaT Selected Advertising Dakota. PIERRE. B. D.. Nov. 11 Special Tele gram.) On account of the manner In which exhibits are being placed at the National Farm Land congress at Chicago, it Is not likely that this state will attempt an agricultural exhibit, as that part of th work has fallen Into private hands, and tha irrigation companies are being exploited to such an extent that the state could not get Into their class.

HEPBURN MAKES ADDRESS Former Coatrruaas Ask If ffnper vlaloa of Increases la Capital Stork Woald Injare Aayoae. NEW TOItK, Nov, 1U Legislation enough for the present argued men who manage railroads, further federal control, pleaded legislators; co-operation In the In terests of fair dealing, proposed shippers and others. Theee varied views on the great common carrier were expressed to night at the first annual banquet of the Railway nustness association at the Waldorf-Astoria. The association, which Is a sort of self- imposed medium of conciliation between the railways and the publlo had as Its g-uests at table tonight mor than 600 men Interested In railroads. George A. Post, president of the associa tion, was toastmaster, and after a toast to President Taft, he Jumped to the ques tion of what would be done with Mr. Taft as an ex-presldent. "H Is not much of a hunter," said Mr. Post, "and It costs money to play golf, then, perhaps, because h Is a good traveling man he'll become connected with some railway." The keynote of Mr. Post's address was Conference, Conciliation and Concession by all Concerned." Former Representative W. P. Hepburn of Iowa, author of the Hepburn act, however, suggested that there were yet railroad mat ter over which the government should have control, For Instance, h asked, "What aerlous hurt could come to rail roads If their capital could not be In creased until approved by government authority?" He declared that neither the law-makers nor the people had any spirit of vlndlc ttvenoss. William C. Brown, president of the New York Central lines, declared "that In times of depression our unemployed will be num bered by millions and he suggested the In creased pursuit of agriculture as a means to forestall such conditions. He said he Intended to recommend to the New York Central lines that the road operate at Its own expense under auspices of the state agricultural college, a series of experi mental farms. "This would return to. the rural districts the preponderance of political power," he said, "where It can be more safely lodged than In congested center of population. already ominously powerful In many of our states." W. H. Marshall, president of the Ameri can Locomotive company, was one who held that there already was an excess of railroad legislation. President Ripley of the Panta Fe was among the other who spoke, while letters sent by President McCrea of the Pennsyl vania. Marvin Hughltt, president of the Chicago & Northwestern and President W. W. Flnley of the Southern railway. The association at Its business session this afternon re-elected George A. Post, president and Charles A. Moore, treasurer. W. G. Pearce of Chicago was chosen to fill a newly created vice presidency. The other vice presidents were re-elected as follows: H. G. Westlnghouse, O. II. Cut ler, W. II. Marshall, K. S. S. Keith, A. H. Mulllken and O. P. Ietchworth. Mr. Hepburn In dls address said: "Discrimination and rebates through twenty years compelled the legislation of 1806. We are now told In some quarters that there 1 to be othor legislation. Prob ably some contemplated provisions woull be harmful, othtrs not. What serious hurt cculd come to railroads If the capital could not be Increased until tho matter had been approved by" goven.ment authority? "It has been suggested that the commls- Picture of MR. A.

Want of nutrition from impaired digestion is usually the cause, but the kidneys, the lungs and air passages may be affected, and this too often leads to serious complications. What the little sufferers need, as in the case of Mr. Tlllapaugh's daughter. Is a remedy that will prove a food and a medicine at the same time. Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is this remedy in perfection. It excites the proper digestion and assimilation of the food by its influence upon the salivary glands of the mouth and the gastric glands of the stomach; without requiring digestion, It is burned or oxidized within the body, and, like other foods, produces heat and energy. Dy its tonic and soothing influence upon the physical and mental forces It calms nervous irritability and gives tone and vigor to the body. as a tonic and stimulant Is one of the greatest strength-givers known to science. It aids in destroying disease and by its building and healing properties agists in restoring tissues in a gradual, healthy, natural manner. It la a wonder ful remedy in the treatment and cure bt consumption, pneumonia, grippe, bronchitis, coughs, folds, malaria, low fever, stomach troubles and all wasting, weakened conditions, If taken In time.

About as near as can be ug ured just $8.50. .Is it any wonder that people are coming back to this store all the time for more clothes. Just by looking around this man saved $8.50. That's what we want, "comparison", then you will know that you save money by buying here. Our Claim The best clothes for the least money. slon hould be empowered to postpone In Its discretion any protested rate Increase until a final hearing determination by the commission. Evil disposed person could suspend every rate and prevent a Just and needed advance until the delay and burden and expense of Investigation had been met. If at the end of this Inves tigation It should he. found that the prv test was without basis, no practical remedy could be afforded. If this rule should be adopted It would deter roads from vol untarily lowering rates, because of the fear that they could not be advanced with out protest. "The people have no spirit of vindictive ness. It would be well nigh suicidal for tho lawmaking power to Indulge In enact menis that were unnecessary simply for oppression's sake, and which would cripple the rosds in their efforts to produce con ditions of prosperity. Yet lawmakers ars like other men. They do not look with fHvor upon those who deride their author ity. If the provisions of the statutes as they now exist are In good faith accepted by the carriers, if the Interests of the shippers are looked to as well as the In terests of the carriers, there will be no legislation that can be called hostile." Speech of Mr. Brovra. In his speech on "The Nation's Farms and National Prosperity" Mr. Brown said: "The right to regulate railroads la no lodger open for debate. The extent to which this right should be exercised Is still open for discussion not In a hostile spirit, not for the purpone of fixing by law an arbitrary point beyond which regu lation should not go,- but In a spirit of friendly co-operation to try and ascertain, In the Interest alike of the public and the railroads, thru happy mean which ahall result .In the maximum benefit to the patrons of the railroads and the minimum embarrassment In the way of restrictive regulation to the railroads.

I desire to sug gest two plans. "First, the broadening of vocational edu cation, especially agricultural. Second, the. doubling of our rural population by more than doubling the product per acr of the nation's farms. The United States produces far less grain' and potatoes per acre than several nations of Europe hav ing poorer soil, and has retrograded In the last thirty years. Our , food exports. In cluding mrats, show an alarmingly rapid decline. If the converging lines of pro. ductlon and consumption continue to ap proach each other a they have during the last ten years, long before the end of the present decade the last vessel loaded with agricultural product will have left our shores. "I am going to recommend to the owners of the roads with which I am connected the operation of experiment farms, at the expense of the road, but under the aus pices of the agricultural college of tha state In which the farm is located. It this recommendation is adopted, I shall hope to see It followed by other road. This system would multiply prosperous farmers. It would also return to the rural districts the preponderance of political power, where It can be more safely lodged than In the congested centers of population, al ready ominously powerful in many of our states."

For years they tried various remedies without good results; finally, when the case seemed almost hopeless they tried Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey with marvelous suc cess. ,. Mr. TMapaugh writes: "My Uttla daughter, who it now 7 years old, at the age of 7 months had a sever at tack of whooping cough, which left her lungs In a very weakoned condition. She grew worse in spite of all we could do. Different doctors prescribed, for her, but without effect. We dragged along this way for nearly six years, al most helpless but not conquered.
