Yesterday morning Councilman
Henry Deuker received over the long
distance telephone, the acceptance by
Henry Smith, of the appointment of
expert auditor of the City Treasurer's s
books. In order to take this job,
Smith will have to arrange for some
other accountant to take the work
which he now has in charge, il 1t be
not finished by the first of the month.
Mr.. Smith will come to the city next
Monday and stay a day or two, that
he may look over the ground and make
some estimate as to the amount of
tie work required, after which the con-
tract will be attested. He will re-
turn Wednesday evening and Thurs
day will start upon the real work of
auditing the City Treasurer's books
1t was stated last night that the city
will pay Mr.. Smith $25 day for the

at first given, was with the provision
that the city pay all of the account
ants expenses while engaged upon the

expenses. 1t was thought best by the
committee to arrange the contract in
this manner as it is almost impossible
to estimate the exact expenses.

money for the vacation of North 14th

have acknowledged their intention of
accepting the damage money, Gartside

Board when asked as to what effect
Gartside's stand would have upon the
advancement of the work, announced
that it would have none at all and
that the street would be closed up
just as soon as the other men had
signed their certificates of payment

in, that one large map should be
made indicating by colors the various

in reference can be made and the diff

SECOND MARRIAGE
At ACE Fifteen
Rare Distinction that Belongs
to a Delaware County
Girl.
FIRST MATCH AT ELEVEN
FIRST HUSBAND WAS HER FOS-
TER FATHER WHO LATER WENT
TO PRIsoN-FiRST MARRIAGE
ANNULLED.

Muncie, Ind. July 27, (Spl)-Mrs
Bessie Miller. nee Yingling, who re-
sides near Reed, in the western part
of the county, probably enjoys the dis
tinction of being the only 15-year-old
girl in Indiana who has been twice
married. Her second husband is
William Miller, a young farmer of Mt
Pleasant township. They were mar
ried by Squire Danner, of Reed.
The bride is not only the youngest
person in the state to have a second
husband, but she was probably the
youngest person eyer married in In
she wed William A. Mckinney, of An
derson. However, the Circumstance
es of the two weddings are quite diff
ferent. The first marriage caused
quite sensation and resulted. indi-
rectly in Mckinney being sent to pris-
on.
When she was but a small girl she
was taken from the Madison county
childrens home to become a mem.
ber of William A. McKinney's family
in Anderson. She was given every
attention by Mckinney, but she was
innocent of his vile intentions. Two
weeks after the death of Mrs. McKin-
ney the husband decided to marry the
little girl. Without telling her of his
plans, he took her to Upton, where,
in February, 1908, they were married.
At that time she was but II years old.
The wedding was performed by Tip
ton minister on the porch at his home.
Mckinney was about 35 years old, but
he had the license and the preacher
did not object to the girls tender
years.
Marriage Was Annulled.
Upon his return to Anderson he
was unable to keep his secret and the
case was Investigated by the authori-
ties. The bride was taken in charge
by the board of children's guardians
and the marriage was annulled.
Mckinney was arrested few days
later on larceny charge and sentenc-
ed to prison for term of one to three
years. He has been released, but he
failed to locate in Anderson again.
The girl soon after went to live with
family in the western part of the
county. where she became acquainted
with William Miller, who is now her
second husband. s..
