0HGS1d4 " L
Galva, Sept. 15.-A thrilling time
was experienced here this week, the
outcome of which was the kidnapping of
IN infant babe from its mother and the
ultimate return of it to her. Enos Be
1Rh and his wife were married here
over a year ago. Both were so young
that they had to obtain the consent Of
their parents before they could wed,
but this was easily done. Since the
marriage the parties lived unhappily,
and it is alleged Belah deserted his wife
on many occasions IN order to bestow
mis- affections Upon other women. Az
ter his child was a little over ten days
old he left his wife to care for herself
and went to live with his parents, while
his wife later went to her parents
home. All went along well for a month
when Belah became crazed to see the
child of his wife and made several at
tempts to get it. Finally he succeeded
In carrying the babe away from its
mother and he took it to Holstein, the
home of his folks. A deputy sheriff Of
this county appeared on the scene
about that time and took charge of Be
lah and the babe, bringing the latter
4 its mother. Belah is being held to
the grand jury, which meets this
month.

Clinton, Sept. 15.-Twice within the
past year has Mrs. Samuel Alexander.
formerly Mrs. M. e. Jackson, nee Miss
divorce in the Clinton county courts.
Yesterday her second bill for divorce
was filed in the office of the clerk OF
courts, in which she states that her
husband, a north side violinist ana
Observation-Disclosures, has treated her
in a cruel and inhuman amer, and
has failed to provide for her mainten-
ance.
The proceedings for the first divorce,
in which the plaintiff in the present
case held a similar position, was
brought on peculiar grounds. The
woman went to Winona to visit rela-
tives, and a few weeks after her de-
parture from Clinton her husband. I
north side carpenter named Jackson,
gave the local newspapers the infor-
nation that his wife had died while
visiting her Winona friends, and a
been buried there. He showed letters
he had received to this effect. The
Clinton papers printed the woman's
obituary, and the incident was forgot
ten. Several months passed, n just
as the supposed widower was about to
cast aside his mourning and remove
the crepe from his hat the wife whom
he had represented to be dead came
back with a big valise,, and took pos
session of the carpenters home. When
he reached home for his monday meal
that day he was astonished to find
that his wife had resurrected, and was.
there before him in the flesh. In the
succeeding weeks the life of the re-
united husband and wife was not of
the smoothest, and before many had
elapsed a suit for divorce was filed, in
which the wife alleged that her hus-
band had purposely circulated the
story of her death, knowing it to be
false, so that he could capture another
wife. The divorce "a granted, and
soon afterwards Mrs. Jackson again
changed her name. and became Mrs.
Alexander. And now, after ten months
nave elapsed, the wife demands that
the marriage bonds be severed, n

Davenport, Sept. 15.-Prize fighters
under arrest, colored dance halls closed
up a w. C. T. U. convention in pro-
gress, and the ministerial association
in a crusade against slot machines
makes Davenport people wonder if the
town is getting good.
The ministers have chosen to try
moral suasion before putting the law
onto slot machine owners, and have
issued the following address to the
hundreds of slot machine owners in the
city:
The ministerial association Of Dav-
export after having given the matter
due consideration, hereby requests that
you discontinue the use of all such
machines and remove them from your
places of business.
Upon first thought this may seem to
you much to ask, but we believe that
upon reflection your W good sense
and honor will recognize the reason
ableness of the request. We realize
that the machines are good money
makers for you and that to remove
them will mean to some a temporary
money loss. No one knows this better
than we do, but we make this request
because there are other considerations
of more value to you and the commun-
ity in general than the money involved.
Our investigations have shown that the
machines are a great evil and that the
money secured does not compensate for
the detriment either to yourselves or the
city. 1t is this investigation which

gives us confidence in the reasonaple
ness and business of the request. INC
reasons why the machines should NC
given up are such as seem to us I'M
peratiye upon the conSciences oil an
good men.
We ask you to give up the machines
because to operate them is a violation
of law. We find the error prevalent
that '.trade slot machines are not
against the law. The police regulation
of the city which forbids money ma
chimes but allows trade ones may nave
given rise to this error and some OF
you who desire to be upright, law
abiding citizens may have been mlsled
thereby. The law itself is very eS-
plicit. putting trade and money ma
chimes in the same category as garnb-
ling devices and making clerks as
guilty as owners. A person who oper-
ates one'of the machines puts himself
in financial jeopardy. Any one VINO
is disposed to do so may take ACTON
against him and secure a heavy f1ne
that would take away the profits for
a long time. The recent action against
several dairymen shows h risk one
runs in violating the law. But 1t is
not to that we appeal. We ask n
laws De kept not because punishment
might follow but because the laws
ought to be kept. 1t is a reasonable
think to ask the citizens of a state
to observe the laws, especially When
they themselves help to make them.
Obedience to the law should be volun-
tary. We should obey not merely
those laws which we are compelled to
but all just laws. We should respect
the law because it is the law. IT the
citizens of a state will regard Moth
ing but force there must be anarchy.
Fear of punishment should not be the
only inducements in obeying the law.
Religion and honor should have weight
and every citizen should take a pride
in being la~w-abiding.
