JUST TO BE ARRESTED.
Nellie LRveIIe Purdue Committed For
gerry for This Purpose.

Nellie Lavelle Purdue was arrested yes
terday on charge of forgery. She walked
into the Jail during the morning and told
City Turnkey Taffe that she wanted to get
in Jail. He told her that she was pretty
nearly there and asked what he could do
for her. She asked TO see Mrs. Shufelton
and when that lady was called asked her
to identify her at bank so she could cash
a check for S. drawn by Edward Wheeler,
a policeman.
Mrs. Shufelton started to the police sta
ton to compare Wheelers signature on the
office records with that of the check The
girl broke down and told Mrs. Shufelton
get arrested. Mrs. Shufelton returned with
the girl and had her locked up.
Nellie LaVelle came to this city about a
year ago. She walked in from Marion and
went to the police station, where she told
a story of hardship and suffering which app
was placed in the care of the Door of Hope
and was forgotten. She was next heard of
when she was married to q man by the
name of Purdue member of the Salvation
Army. The marriage took place at the
Door of Hope.
few days ago, when she tried to kill her
self at the home of family on Ash street.
with which she was staying as a domestic.
Her husband had not proved satisfactory
to her and she had gone out into the world
to earn her own living again.
Before her marriage she had been given
a home in the family of Edward Wheeler.
1t was her acquaintance with him that
probably caused her to use his name in
committing the crime of forgery.

AS VIEWED BY SCALPERS
THE NEW MILEAGE BOOK WILL
LEAD TO A 2-CENT-A-MILE RATE.
C., III. & i. Standardization Over
IRterchangeabI Mileage OF Roads
in Receivers Hands.

One of the older of the local ticket
scalpers, in conversation yesterday, said
that the proposed new interchangeable
mileage would never become popular. The
commercial travellers were bitterly opposed
to it. The demanding, in the first place, of
$50 instead of $50 for the l,000-mile book
is very Objectionable and there is so much
red tape about the new book that the $40
rebate for the book cover would often go
to the railroad on some trivial irreguarity.
The speaker felt sure that the legislatures
of Illinois, Indiana and Ohio would at their
next assembling pass laws, making 2 cents
per mile the rate on all classes of tickets.
lie said the scalpers, as a rule, are honest
business men, and transact business in a
legitimate manner. A few scalpers outside
of the association cause all the trouble and
have done much to antagonize the travel
ing public. He had been in the business
for years, and no pass had ever been pur-
chased by his house. Their business had
been done of late largely on mileage and
all this mileage had been secured in
legitimate manner and 50 per cent. of it
from the ticket offices of the roads over
which they sold mileage. But there were
scalpers who bought passes, changed the
date on coupon tickets and even extended
the ticket beyond the limit and sometimes
beyond the destination, and this crooked
ness on the part OF nonaSSociation Scalpers
had brought odium upon ScalperS generally.
He said he would not continue in the bust
ness il he. thought there was anything dis
honorable in it ii conducted on the rules
which govern the American Ticket Brokers
and the Guarantee Brokers Association.

ceipt that was Illegal and void. The new
law concerning mortgages on household
goods provides that any person receiving
money on mortgage of this character
must give a receipt stating the amount of
the loan and date Of execution of the
mortgage, the amount of money that has
been paid the sum charged by the mort
gagee or agent for services, the rate of in
terest to be charged, the amount of each
payment received and how applied and the
amount unpaid on the loan and when it
will fall due.
The Van Camp complaint ayers that the
receipt given by Cora Swartz failed in these
the act of 1897. which states that unless
the mortgage shall give such a receipt as
set out such mortgage shall be void, the
mortgage in this case is of no effect. Con-
corning the appointment of a receiver the
attorneys for the Van Camp woman
claimed that their client had been given no
time to resist the receivership and the court
consented to let the matter go over until
to-day.

UNDER NEW MORTGAGE LAW.
Nora Van Camp, Sued ON Notes, De-
mands "a Cancellation.

In the Circuit Court yesterday Judge AL
len appointed James NJ Marker receiver
for the establishment of Nora Van Camp at
No. 1881 West Washington street. on the
application of Cora Swartz, a dressmaker
at No. 912 North Illinois street. The action
was taken early in the afternoon, but later
in the day the judge said he would hold
the matter of the receivership in allegiance
until morning. The receivership grew out
of a suit brought by Mrs. Swartz on
promissory note for $210 executed in April
last by the Van Camp woman and secured
by a chattel mortgage on her household
goods.
Half an hour after this suit had been
brought Nora Van Camp brought suit
against the dressmaker for the cancellation
of the mortgage. The latter suit Is based
on the act of the last Legislature concern
ing mortgages on household goods. 1t is
the first suit brought in the county under
the new act. The Van Camp woman in her
complaint showed that In April she was in
debted to Mrs. Swartz and her husband in
the sum Of SO and in addition TO this be-
came security for the payment of Sl35
worth of dresses sold to the woman of her
household. She admitted that on April 10
she executed her note and mortgage for

legged. however. that she paid Sl5 on the
note for which she received no receipt and
at another time paid SO, receiving a re-

Abe ScIussIer's Divorce Suit.

Abe Schussler brings suit for divorce from
Annie Schussler on the grounds of cruel
and inhuman treatment. The parties were
married in 1894 in this city. The plaintiff
AYERS the defendant has fallen short OF her
wifely duties by constantly quarreling with
him and falsely accusing him of improper
relations with other women. The plaintiff
says he ceased to live with his wife on May
30 last. On that day, as charged, she threw
herself upon him with great fury, striking
him on the head and badly injuring his ear,
producing partial deafness. On the same
day the defendant is charged with drawing
a revolver on the plaintiff and threatening
to kill him.
