Chicago and Alton trainmen have
agreed to accept the schedule OF work
ing regulations submitted by the
officials and which has been under
discussion by the grievance committee

the conductors approved them, and
the two former classes decided to sub
NIT to the wishes Of the latter There
is no mention Of pay in this schedule,

MACON, Mo, March 1S.-In bis peti.
tion for divorce, filed here to-day,
James u. Turner alleges that his wife
ffered him such indignities as to
render his condition intolerable, as
follows.
That she would strike him with her
fists, scratch him 10 the face with hei
hands so as to make 1t bloody, and
leave marks thereon for several days
that, even after he had gone TO sleep,
he was not safe from her persecution,
because she would wake him up In
order to pull his hair and scratch bis
face.
The plaintiff says that these actions
were entirely unproyoked and un-
resisted on his part.
At one time, he says, she ordered
him to leave home, and he obedientlJ
began packing up, but, as he turned
to go, she informed him that, II he
dared to leave her she would follow
him to the ends Of the earth.

SELECTED THE OLD SITE.
Congregation Of the Christian Church
Decides to Locate Their New
Building Where Present
One Now Stands.

There was a large number OF the
membership OF the Christian Church
present at the meeting held In the
church Wednesday night for the pur-
pose Of determining on site for the
proposed new church building. P. W.
Harding acted as chairman at the
meeting; and Joseph A. Potts, as
chairman Of the committee Un site,
reported the recommendatio OF the
committee. This RECOMMENDATION was
that the old site be retained, and the
report was adopted almost unanimous
ly.
Mr.. Potts said Thursday that the
committee had taken great pains In
their Investigations OF the different
sites hat had been suggested, giving
to each much thought and consldera-
tion, and that they thought that much
might be aid In favor ~ each location,
but that after careful canvass OF the
whnIe matter and numerous confer
ences by The Committed, the) had
several good aud sufficient reasuns,
amtng which was that they thought
the present site was large enough upon
which To- erect house sufficiently
large To accom- in'iate the church for
many years S.c0ndly, that the loi
was ours, that IL was paid for and The
money that would have b. be paid for
a new local lon could be better exlend-
ed on the building, and, lastly, that
there was a sacredness about the old
site that should not be lost sight Of;
that the old site was considered best,
that 1t is more centrally lncated than
any OF tn others. lie said that the
congregation had been meeting there
SO long at this place and 50 many had
confessed the Savior and been buried
with Him In baptism there that they
were opposed to q change of site, and
that at the final meeting OF the COM
mittee they had unanimously agreed
to recommend the old site.
There seems to have been some
doubt In the minds Of many as to
whether the old site was large enough
for modern church building, but 1t
is stated by those who claim to know
that the old site is wider by one foot
than either the Presbyterian or
Methodist church lots. The piece Of
ground upon which the new church is
to be erected is 8lxll4 feet.
A committee composed Of P. W.
Harding, Capt. J. W. Bryan, Mines.
q. R. Locke, J. T. johnson and r. R.
Arnold was appointed TO see after
plans for the new church. They will
report on plans in the rough, and
after they are accepted they will be
turned over to the architect for CON-
pletior as to details.
There seems to DO no doubt what
ever, but that the church will be built
by late fall. The subscription list
shows total of about s15, 600, and only
s5, 900 more is needed to reach the
sum desired.
1t is supposed that the church meet
ings will be held In the Court House
during the construction Of the new
ediffcA.

silken beard and a fiuttering feminine
heart were the stakes in an un-

Of the Hotel Oxford at Sioux City, Ia.

The news Of the unusual contest of a
heart against whiskers spread and the
game was watched by large crowd.
1t was fast and furious. Dennis was
the loser. He begged to be saved the

their heartless work. Strands Of the

will insist on mixing up terms. One
Exchange in Wednesdays mail says
that 'the Insane Hospital gets SO

LEDGER hardly thinks that the State

that the Home for the Feeble Minded
