University--Shocked the Matron.

are threatened with expulsion from

rough house" in Ormsby hall last
evening when the preceptress was
away. Two, who are daughters of a
well known wisconsin clergyman, in
cited fifty young ladies to rousing
game of leap frog in the reception
room on the third floor. The fun was
fast and furious and the matron, Miss
Lelon Wayne, attempted to put a stop
to it. but the girls rushed her to the
top of the stairway in a body and re-
fused to stop their play until they
were painting for breath.
1t is generally conceded that it lis
impossible to play leap frog attired
in long skirts, but the girls persis-
tently refuse to say in what costume
they enjoyed the fascinating sport.
The fair co-eds had been living very
quietly in their hall for almost a
month and were brimming over for
some kind of a joust. When the pre-
ceptress left they embraced the oppor-
tunity and the girls who were retired
were pulled from their beds and made
to enter the sport. Nothing loath
they joined in until fifty leaping and

Will Name Moody FOR
the Supreme Bench
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT WILL
BOOST HIM.
The Attorney General Is to Be Pro-
NOTED Despite the Fact His State
Is Already Represented on the Y. $,
Supreme Court.

Washington, Oct. "a While no
official statement is obtainable, unof-
fetal information confirms the report
that President Roosevelt will appoint
Attorney General William H. Moody
of Massachusetts to the vacancy on
the supreme bench made by the re-
tirement of Associate Justice Henry
b. Brown. 1t is announced the in
tention of the president to appoint
Moody to the supreme bench came as
a surprise as it was generally under
stood that he had eliminated the at
torney general from consideration in
that connection because of the fact,
mainly, that Massachusetts already
has a representative on the bench in
the person of Justice Holmes.
Moody's nomination will be sent to
the senate when congress convenes
but it is the general expectation that
he will not take his seat on the bench
until about Jan. /, when, as previously
announced, he expects to retire from
the attorney generalship.

Proposed Changes in the
Divorce Laws of the u. 5.

Philadelphia, oct 24.--Judge Stake
of this city, secretary of the divorce
congress, has received from its COM
mittee on resolutions and forwarded
to the various delegates a proposed
measure for bringing about uniformity
i'm the present divorce laws OF the
United States.
The proposed statute Is the outcome
of deep study on the subject by emil
nent lawyers and jurists and promi-
nent churchmen, all of whom are con-
versant with existing conditions of
the so-calied divorce evil, and the
proposed new act Is calculated to in
sure remedial results all over the
country. It's compilation was en-
trusted to the resolutions committee
which consists of representatives TO
congress from this state and New Jer-
sey, and they will unanimously report
| the proposed act to the congress which
re-assembles in this city on Nov. 13.
Practically every state and terri
tory will be represented at the meet
| ing.
| AS soon as practicable the delegates
will be assembled to have the pro-
posed new law enacted in their re-
spectiye states.
/ The proposed new act is divided
into three chapters, the first consists
lof jurisdictional provisions; the sec
ond procedure, and the third general
provisions, and is entitled "an act
regulating annullment Of marriage
and divorce"
While little or no change Is made
in the given causes for divorce as now
existing. certain provisions Of the new
act were evidently made with q view
of arresting the increasing demand
for legal severance Of marital bonds
Under these stipulations secret or star
chamber sessions for hearing divorce
cases before masters or other repre-
sentatives OF the courts are done away
with. and "ail hearings and trials
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1906-10-24

shall be had before the court
and shall in all cases be public" 1t
also provides that "a decree dissolving
the marriage tie so completely as to
permit the remarriage OF either party
should not become operative until the
lapse of a reasonable time after hear
ing or trial upon the merits of the
case" The wisconsin, Illinois and
California rule of one year is recon-
mended.
Another enactment of the proposed
new law prohibits the solicitation OF
a divorce case by advertisement, cir
cular or otherwise and prescribes for
such an offense a fine of not more
than $1,000 and Imprisonment Of not
more than one year.
Annulment of the marriage contract
as distinguished from divorce will be
made from the following causes: Inn
potency, consanguinity, existing for
mer marriages, fraud, force or coer-
cion, insanity and illegal age.
Divorce, it is provided, shall be Of
two kinds-absolute or divorce a vim
cule matrimonei and divorce from bed
and board or divorce mensa ct thoro.
Under the first classification the
grounds shall be adultery, bigamy,
conviction and sentence for crime fol-
lowed by two years continual imprls-
onment; extreme cruelty; wilful de-
sertion and habitual drunkenness for
two years.
The same causes will prevail in the
second class with the additional clause
of hopeless insanity OF the husband
No divorce shall be granted IL it ap-
pears to the satisfaction Of the court
that the suit has been brought by col
( lusion or that the plaintiff has procur-
ed or connIved at the offense charged
or has condoned 1t. or has been guilty
of adultery not condoned
/ The new law also makes some Inn
portant changes In the practice and
procedure necessary In divorce cases
! and their trial.

ONE MAN SHOT BY THE PUR.
sUERS.
Clever Capture of the Men Is Due to
the Persistence Of the Minot Officials
Who Followed the Men for Thirty
Hours.


Minot, Oct. 24.-After a long and
untiring pursuit on the part of the
Minot posse, who have been driving
for thirty hours, the Sawyer bank
robbers were captured near Max late
yesterday afternoon.
Clue after clue was followed by the
deputies.
The robbers were traced from the
grain bin in which they spent Monday
and in which they left evidences of
their haul, through the barn in which
they spent Monday night up to the
hiding place in the straw stack on
the Hart farm.
A party consisting of Deputy Sheriff
Ed. Kelley, c. c. Willis and Pete Lee
located three of the band, who were
fleeing across the prairie.
Shots were instantly exchanged and
in a few minutes one of the band sig
nified his intentions of giving up the
fight and surrendering.
Another was hit in the leg by one
of the flying bullets and the bone
broken above the ankle.
The third was not discovered until
an hour had elapsed, when he was
found hiding in slough in which he
had cast his money. He was duckine
under the water, coming up to the
surface for breath when he thought
the men were not looking.
Another posse, consisting of mer
nEh
men of the party to a straw stack
where they were discovered SOUND
asleep.
Covered by the guns of the pur.
suers, the robbers wisely surrendered
