DIVORCE SUIT ENDED.

There was a happy termination in
Richmond yesterday OF the Morris di
vorce suit, an affair which caused deep
distress to the many prominent friends
of the parties. The divorce suit was
practically ended 10 the Hastings court
of Manchester by an agreement which
was reached between Mrs. Morris and
her husband, after lengthy consulta-
tion held 10 the judges private office.
la accordance With this agreement q
decree will be drawn up, dismissiDg all
suits, both In Richmond and Manches-
ter, giving the custody of the child,
Gladys, to Mrs Morris for the fret year,
and to DR.. Morris for the second, thus
allowing the custody to alternate every
twelve months. ALI personal effects of
Mrs. Morris. bridal presents and all
silver IL to be given to- her. The result
is thorough vndication OF Mrs. Morris
and an admission that all allegations
regarding her and young business
man of Richmond, mentioned ia con.
nection with the case, are groundless,
and DR.. and Mrs. Morris have become
reconciled. DR.. Morris, who few
days ago instituted divorce suit against
his wife, yesterday morning visited her
at her home in Manchester, and on bis
knees implored her forgiveness. The
writ of hsbeas corpus served by Mrs.
Morris's counsel to obtain possession Of
her 3.yesr-old daughter, Gladys, was TO
have been heard before the Hustiogs
Court of Manchester yesterday. At an
early hour the husband visited the wife
for the purpose OF effectinga settlement
OF their unhappy affairs. When husband
and wife were alone the unfortunate
young doctor fell on his knees, buried
his head in his wife's lap and between
his sobs begged for forgiveness. He
told her he knew he had been
wrong and be was willing to do any
thing to atone for the past. The young
wife and mother were deeply affected
and had she answered the promptings
of her heart would quickly have said
the words that would have restored to
her husband and chill. Mr.. Speer,
the wife's brother, was not willing to
agree to a compromise until DR.. Morris
had consented to withdraw his divorce
and disclose the falsity OF the charges
made against the young wife. This
was finally done and the couple will &C.
company Mr.. Speer back to Florids,
where they will live for the present.

BLooMINGD LIE, March 12--We have
not sent any news items TO the CENSOR
on account of the smallpox epidemic
here, fearing that the editor might think
our letter covered with smallpox germs,
as was the case with the Chinese laun-
dryman when he notified us not to send
any more laundry as he was afraid of
smallpox. All kinds of reports have
been circulated in regard to the disea e
here and the further from home TIE re-
port got, the worse it got. One report
was that Bloomingdale was quarantined.
Now the facts of the CAFE are these:
There is not now. nor never has been
case of smallpox in Bloomingdale.
There has, however, been some Is cases
ont about II to miles, but the cases
have all been quarantined. but most of
them are out again. The cases were
very mild, in fact, most of those who
had them were able to be out most all
the time 1t did not seem to have such
q bad effect as vaccination did on some
People around here did not get scared
over it. We did not close our school
and had full attendance all the time.
At present is seems as though the dis
ease Is about stamped out No new
cases have been reported except in fam
lilies that have been quarantined. The
report has been quite generally c1rculat-
ed that Wn. Newlun. who brought the
disease here frcm Winona, had run
away from there while under quarantine
and came here. This report is false as
u letter of inquiry to the health officer
at that place brought back the reply
that they never had had Mr.. Newlun
quarantined at any time. K. The cream

from sparks from the feed mill, but the
ire was discovered at once and was put
