SENATE PASSES
ROEMLER BILL
CONTINUED from Page One).

portanee that few seem to realize. The
senate refused TO kin the Cavins bill
providing for this, though the meas
ure failed TO pass for the want of a
constitutional majority. The house,
which was supposed to be hostile. re-
fused to indefinitely postpone a similar
measure, yesterday afternoon, by a
large vote.
The house action was a surprise.
When Elliot of st. Joseph made the
molten TO postpone indefinitely, he did
50 with the comment that this was a
fool bill anyhow" There seemed little
question but that the motion TO post
pene would prevail overwhelmingly
at least there was that question until
the roll call began, and then it was
seen that there was the large majority
that refused to postpone the measure.
With house rather active in behalf
OF women's suffrage, and a senate that
IS quieseent at least. there is a pos
sibility that the measure will go
through.
Ratlin of Wayne county advanced
the most unique argument fer the sun
day baseball bill, which passed by a
bare majority in the house. His con-
tention was that such measure was
really public health measure, in that
1t forced people out into the open on
Sunday. He voted for 1t then. not On
moral grounds, but because of his
health features-an attitude that was
original to say the least Both Moon
and Elliot voted for the measure. There
is nc thing to indicate what action the
senate viii take on the measure when
| it comes up there for consideration.
The house will probably start in on
the night sessions the latter part of
this week. The senate is so far ahead
of the house that it would not do much
good there. but next week, it will prob
ably have to come to it.

MIDNIGHT IS
The 'DEADLINE"
Rensselaer, Girls Dance IN
til 2 Expelled From
Basket Ball Team.

The dead line for dancing in Rens-
selaer is midnight.
This has been an unwritten law in
the little Jasper county town for many
years, but Professor ]. H. Gray, prin-
cipal of the Rensselaer, high school, has
made it de facto by expelling from the
Rensselaer, basket ball team which is
an adjunct of the high school, two
girls who dared to transgress the time
honored custom.
The culprits are Misses Belle LaRue
and Ella Casey, both girls who go in
the best society of Rensselaer, and are
star players on the basket ball team
The result is a scandal of the tempest
in a teapot variety, which has spread
nevertheless until it includes Whit
ing. Some Of the girls of the Whiting
basket ball team, which visited Rens-
selaer last Friday when the crime was
committed, shared the guilt of the
Rensselaer, youthful bellies, and thus the
plot thickens.
Has Local Interest.
Hammond is more than casually in
terested, for the Rensselaer, team is tc
visit this city next Friday even
ing to play the local girls team.
1t appeaEs that on the occasion OF
Whiting visiting Rensselaer, last Fri
day, dance was given in honor of the
event. The dancers all dispersed prompt
to the stroke of midnight, and the hal
was closed, ostensibly for the night
Not so. however, Mise sLaRue and
Casey and a number of kindred spirits
girls from the Whiting team, IN com
pany with an equal number of young
men, returned tc the hall, broke into
the place and there proceeded to chase
the glowing hours with flying feet
until a. m.
OF course a lark of these dimensions
could not be adequately concealed ant
what is still referred to in Rensselaer,
as Dame Rumor" didn't do a thing
! but spread the news.
stern Justice Is Swift.
Swift retribution descended upoI
women who had been parties to the
indiscretion, in the form of the edic
of Professor Gray expelling them from
the ball team. The disclplining came
as a surprise to the culprits and tC
the school. When the latter assembled
Professor Gray addressed the entire
class declaring that girls who could
be guilty of so scandalous perfor
nance were not eligible to member
ship in the schools basket ball team
Everybody feels badly, as Misses La
Rue and Casey were the stars of theiI
! team The town is much excited.

Wife of Cause of Eschen-
bach Tragedy Asks Court
for Legal Separation.
JOE DUNSINC LIKEWISE
Bank Clerk Would Put an End to His
Much Ventilated Marital
Troubles.

Mrs. J. ]. Mettler yesterday applied
Tor divorce from her husband on the
grounds that he permitted Mrs. Esch-
enbach to become so infatuated with
MIN that she committed suicide. Mrs.
Mettler also alleges that shortly after
the exposure of Mettlers relations with
Mrs. Eschepbach MettIer sold wnat
property he had and deserted her, leav-
ing her destitute except for what prop
erty she herself possessed.
Mrs. Metuer also alleges that her
husband was cruel and inhuman in his
treatment of her and for this and other
reasons specified in the complaint she
asks that she be granted a complete
divorce from her husband.
1t has been a matter of common un-
Outstanding ever since the second day
after the suicide of Mrs. Eschenbach
that Mr.. Mettler was making hasty
preparations to leave town.
He did so shortly afterwards and it
was rumored that he went to Germany
to escape the condemnation and criti-
cism that was showered upon him as a
result of his improper conduct with a
married woman in this city.
Fortunately Mrs. Mettler has part Of
the property in her name and Will be
| in comfortable circumstances In spite
of her husbands desertion. Mrs Met
tier is known by all her friends to be
an estimable woman and a good mother
and all who know her sympathize with
her in the trying situation in which she
has been placed as a result of the re-
| cent sensational disclosures regarding
her husband.
1t is not likely that Mettler will ap-
J 70 oh ha
tier to secure a divorce and the separ-
alton Will be granted by default.
Dunsing vs.. Dunsing.
Joseph W. Dunsing, who is EMPLOYED
as a clerk in the office of the Lake
County Saving & Trust company, has
applied for q divorce from his wife,
Minnie Dunsing, and in the complaint.
which was filed yesterday in the cir
cult court at Crown Point, it was al
legged that the defendant was of a
quarrelsome disposition, had complain
ed of his financial condition when she
knew how much he was getting when
they were married; was the possessor
of violent and ungovernable temper
and on various occasions attempted to
commit suicide when she became en-
ragged at the plaintiff. In other re-
spects the complainant says the de-
PENDANT was menace to his health and
happiness.
1t is also alleged that Mr. Dunsing
had no idea of the kind of woman
Mrs. Dunsing was until after his mar
riage and that on account of her con
duct he was compelled to leave her and
did so on Nov. 4, 1906
DunsinG Troubles Well Aired.
This suit for divorce is the culmina-
ton of the trouble that Mr.. Dunsina
and his wife have been having for
some time The story of their separ-
alton and the declarations made by
Mrs. Dunsing at the time that she did
not want a divorce but wanted joe
caused quite a sensation in this city
Mr.. Dunsing did not have anything
to say regarding the matter at the
time but waited until his suit for di-
vorce was filed to make public his
reasons for leaving his wife.
