An article published A short time since. about
the escape of young wife from this contempt-
able place of resor. at Berlin, Ohio, has brought
out the following letter from the wife of the
founder which reads thus:
Ny husband was the founder Of the Berlin
Free Love Institution. He has been a believer
n the free love doctrine for abo 1t three wears,
year or more ago, he left home ostensiblv
upon business but he only roamei around in
search OF free love pauions-having found

and founded the infamous den of lust which
now exists there. He left me with three little
children to provide for and nothing to do it
with but my hands. | have stood for DAYS in
the week over the washtub, laborng until nv
strength has many time given way entirely,
Tor the sake of a little money on which to feed
my children. His father owns little house
and two acres Of land on which we live togeth-
er. We have managed to keep the family
together thus far, although all the money nv
husband has sent me during his absence is
nine dollars. dis father is eighty wears old,
and has buried his wife and six children. Nv
husband was his last child on earth, and he ex-
pected In him prop and support in his de-
Ginning years, but he has now no one but me to
depend upon. He is COOL old man, and bears
his troubles with christian resignation Six
weeks ago wrote to my husband to come home
and let me see him once more, He came on
the 10Th of June, in the morning and went
away the same day. He had not seen me for
more than year then, and y3t bis heart was
encased in an Iceberg, which | tried BY every
endeatment to melt, but alas, all in vain. He
told a story as long as the Levtical law, Of

been trying to induce his father to sell his little
place aud come to Berlin to live but he will
not do it. When we talked to him of the
life he was living, we got nothing from him but
profanity. He never used profane or vulgar
language till he became a free lover, and was
always a good and kind husband. Tell the

From the Chicago Press AM Tribune


The United States circuit court in this CITY
Is now occupied with peculiar and very nn
merous class o. land cases, Involving a great
amount of property in that part of the State
known as the 9 Military Tract
tract of land lying between the Illinois
and Mississippi rivers very much resembling
bent wedge IN shape, and including about four
teen counties, now among the richest and most
populouS in the State, among which are Adams.
Hancock, Henderson, Peoria, McDonouyh, etc.
was granted bv two acts of Congress to the SOL
dlers OF the United States. The first of these
acts which passed in 1912, granted l60 acres
to each soldier, aud a subsequent grant extended
the qaahtum to half section. The land thus
appropriated was divided by lot among the
soldiers, aud the patents issued to them accor-
dlngiy. Millions of acres of the finest and
most fertile land in Illinois were disposed of in
this way. The soldiers did nothing with the
land, and most of them selling their titles for
a tribe to spectators residing IN the eastern
States, the land remained unoccupied year after
year.
After the organization of the State govern
meut in 1918 the State began to sell these lands
for taxes, and for a considerable period the
pnnHjPal part OF the revenue of the State was
derived from This source The greater portions
OF these lands thus went into the possession of
parties who held them under these tax titles
The grantees of the soldiers, who were the
original patentees, brought suits of sectment
for their lands. Of course vast amount of
tedious and expensive litigation was the result.
\ Strong but unsuccessful effort was made to
sustain the tax titles, and now the principal re.
lance of the defendants is not so much upon
the tax-titles as upon the limitation laws of
this Safe. A considerable number of these
cases were tried last week, and much larger
number are till waiting for trial
As the plaintiffs in all these suits are non
residents OF the State Of Illinois, the whole of
this local and peculiar litigation falls within the
jurisdiction Of Judge Drummoud's court and it
has had the remarkable effect Of making the
United States court in Chicago a species of land
court for the northern counties of the military
