Mr.. HUNDRED holds that many unsuc-
cessful marriages can be prevented by
proper instruction. 81 have talked
with many married women bowed
with the troubles of a hard expert

to me, If 1 had only known ETC.
There are many married persons in
the opinion of the pastor, who are
not capable of properly raising their
children and these children should
be cared for by the state, if the state
would have them good citizens. The
church, Mr.. Humberd believes has
been too lax on the subject of in
struction of young persons in the
practical professions of life. He be-
lieves the public schools should as
sist in this instruction; that there
should be a place accorded to it in
the general curriculum; that the
study should be made both physiolog-
zeal and moral. The plan the min
lister is considering as a part of his
pastoral work at the church is class
over which he himself will preside.
His idea is to cooperate with the par
ents, the family physician and the
teacher These four. he thinks, are
the greatest factors in the life of the
young.
We believe that Brother HUNDRED
ought to be encouraged in his novel
enterprise. 1t should fill a long-felt
want We are with him, and are in
favor of the establishment of a
branch of his school here in Rock
Island. We will work to that end,
provided we get needed cooperation
on the part of our unmarried folks,
Older ones are not barred. All that

gether at stated intervals for discus
sion of affairs of the heart. We would

JAILFORCONTEMPT
Is Sentence Melted Out to Willis
Counselman, Broker, and
I. N. G. officer.
RESULT OF DIVORCE CASE
Action Follows Annulment of Remar
riage After Getting Separation
Through Fraud.

Chicago, July ga final blow was
dealt Willis Counselman yesterday
when with his second wife snatched
from him, their romance shattered by
the courts, his commission as captain
in the 1st cavalry, l. n. G., resigned,
and the ghost of the suffering of the
rehearing of his divorce case still
haunting him, he was sentenced to
three months in the county Jail for
contempt of court.
Judge Arthur H. Chetlain of the SUI
perior court. before whom Counselman
obtained a divorce from his insane
wife, Lulu Counselman, to clear the
way for his subsequent marriage to
Clara French, an Englewood society
girl, announced the jail sentence after
hearing the arguments of representa-
tives of the Chicago Bar association
and an assistant states attorney. 1t
was before Judge Chetlain, too, that
the rehearing dragged through while
Counselman and his bride passed their
honeymoon days in dread of what the
future might bring.
VIII Take an Appeal
No order on the sentence will be en-
tered this week because of the an
nouncement of Charles Ebstein, attor
ney for Counselman, that an appeal
will be taken.
In its decision the court said in part:
The first question to decide is
whether fraud was practiced on the
court in the original hearing of this
case.
THE facts in the case are pretty well
admitted. Counselman knew that a
guardian ad Item must be appointed
for his wife before he could obtain a
divorce. There has been no Interior
motive in the prosecution of this re-
spondent, as charged by the attorney
for Counselman. l must find the de-
PENDANT guilty of contempt of court"
1--WE take exception to the courts rul-
ing" said Attorney Ebstein, as the
court finished its ruling.
Il will appeal the case" said Coun-
selman's lawyer when asked what the
next move would be.

About the most interesting thing
next to the unloading of the regalia
that brought so many local people

was the relOading for the going

then, in a great measure due to the
work of these lively fellows that the
great circus is what it is.
But the show is over with. And
Moline has had its circus day for
1910, which meant greater Moline,

FROM VALLEY CLARION.

Miss Frances Dudley was welcome
caller at our office this week. She
wishes us to correct an error we made
last week, when we said that Miss
June Miller, Miss 'Dudleys guest
while playing croquet, fell and wrench,
ed her back between the wOodshed
and the kitchen. Miss Dudley says
they do not play crOquet in their back
yard, and therefore we ought to have
stated that ISIS Dudley was injured
between the porch and the front gate.
Dan Judson was to have been mar
ried last week to Mrs. Pearl Radcliffe,
charming eastern woman whom he
met through the mails, but he confides
to us that the engagement is off. a
month ago he sent her funds TO buy
her trousseau and to pay her railroad
fare TO city not far from here, but
she has not written to him since. 1t
was to have been a real romance. She
showed that she was sincere by for
warding Dan a picture of herself. She
is strikingly handsome woman, and
would have been a valued acquisition
to our social life. We saw the picture,
and it's well worth looking at. She
has one of Dams pictures, too. Dan
is beginning to suspect that he has
been made the victim of a deep plot.
He has referred the cast to Amos Dun
can, our successful detective. Amos
says he can do little unless he takes
a trip to the womans home, but at
the time of going to press Dan had
not decided whether he would go to
further expense by advancing railroad
fare. However, if she ever passes
through here, Amos is likely to get
her, as he is at the depot when every
train goes by.
Phil Parker had the nerve to tell
us the other day that he was going
to run again for the nomination for
constable. He has beeen running ever
since we've been in the Valley, and
has not arrived yet. We refused to
tell his good points, if he has any. to
the readers until he pays for his an

that he ran in 1898.

stroyed by fire Fourth of July, has
