SEN JONES' BILL

RELATES TO IOWA DIVORCES.
Both Parties to Decree Restrained
From Marrying For One Year
Board of Control Bill
Passes.

Des MONIES, Ia, March 8. The
divorce laws IN the state of Iowa were
amended in the house, yesterday at
ternoon by passage of the Senator
Jones bill, which was introduced by
Hambleton, also of Mahaska county,
to prevent divorced persons marry
ing within one year after filing of de.
cree. Many of the lawyers in the
house tried to defeat the bill by pro
posing a lot of amendments, some of
them germane and others evidently
intended to make the measure a sub
ject of ridicule. Mr.. Hambleton, how.
ever, stood by his guns and by earn
est effort prevented the adoption of
any amendment except by Weeks OF
Guthrie, which gave the courts the
power to suspend the one year pro-
hibition of re-marriage at their dis
erection when the decree is granted.
After debate which lasted for more
than an hour the bill was passed ny
vote of Sc to Al, just one more than
the number required for majority.
The bill adds to the present divorce
law the following: IN every case in
which a divorce is decreed, neither
party shall marry again within a year
from the date of the filing of said
decree, unless permission to do so is
granted by the court in such decree,
provided, however, that nothing here
in contained shall prevent the persons
divorced from remarrying each other.
Any person marrying contrary to the
provisions of this act shall be deemed
guilty of misdemeanOr and punished
accordingly"

York and expects to leave for the East
soon after the middle of February. 1t
is doubtful that Nealon will be started
here again. Durnell is desirous of
getting his string East in plenty of
time for thorough preparation for
the big spring handicaps in which
Nealon has been engaged.
w. B. Jennings plans to remain here
until April, when he will go East to
usual.
Trainer W. D. Randall said yesterday
that ii was his intention to take Bor-
ghesi to Ascot Park within a few days
with the idea of running him in a
stake event at a mile and a sixteenth
a week from tomorrow. He believes
that the horse will run better on the
Ascot track than he has in his recent
starts here.
Trainer Dave Henry, who will sever
his connection with Barney Schreiber
after the running of the California
Oaks on Saturday, probably will go to
Hot Springs next week. He had Miss
Of1cious in course of preparation for
the Oaks and agreed to handle her
until after that event, when he sud
denly threw up his job as a result of
a difference of opinion between
Schreiber and himself as to the advis-
ability of an entry of one of the horses
in his charge.
Trainer Tom Cooke left yesterday for
Ascot Park with Cruzados and two
others of the Baldwin string. San
Ramon and w. H. Hammond's Massa
went along in the same car.

there is a possibility that all the de-
tails will be decided upon at a meet
ing at the Tuxedo tomorrow night be-

in the matter Of weight. and that is
in a fair way of being adjusted to
the satisfaction of both boxers. One
wants ringside weight and the other
desires that the time OF stepping on
the scales be fixed at o'clock in the
afternoon of the fight.
1t is probable that a compromise
will be reached. and that 133 pounds
