COLLIER MARRIES
LEADING WOMAN
Comedian, Divorce, Denied
Rites of the Episcopal
Church.
HAS MADE ARRANGEMENTS
Pastor of st. Johns Methodist Con.
gregation Comes to Rescue
Bride a Young Widow.

- William Morenus, otherwise William
Collier, comedian, and Pauline Mari
a member of his company appearing
in "a Lucky Star" were married in
Davenport yesterday afternoon, Rev.
]. A Burchit performing the ceremony
at the parsonage of st. Johns Metho-
dist church.
Collier had made telephone arrange
ments to have the service read by
Dean Marmaduke Hare of Grace Epis-
copal cathedral, but when the bridal
party reached the rectory and the
groom-elect stated he was a divorce
he was advised to take his afianced
to the pastor of q church OF different
denomination, as marriage under such
circumstances was contrary to the
laws of the Episcopal faith However.
Dean Hare is an admirer of MT. Col
lier as an actor, as was evidenced by
his attendance at his performance at
the Grand opera house last evening
Bride Widow.
Albert E. Morgan and Hilma Fink,
professional friends, were witnesses of
the marriage. Collier gave his age as
40 and his residence at st. James, Long
Island, and the bride said she was &c
and that her home was in New York
City. The bride stated that she had
been married before, but that her first
husband was dead. The groom, who
was christened Morenus, explained he
had been known by his stage name of
Collier since he was years of age.
His parents both were theatrical per-
formers.
Pauline Mari, a handsome. lithsome
brunette, has been in the chief support
of Collier upwards of a year. Their
engagement to marry was announced
a few months ago while the company
was playing in New York City. Few
people in the audience at the theatre
last evening understood that Collier
and Miss MARI were the parties to the
marriage announced in the afternoon
papers, inasmuch as the name Morenus
instead of Collier had been given.
However, the cat was let out of the
bag when the orchestra struck up
Mendelssohn's wedding march during
a curtain call for Collier at the end of
the second act.
Has Clever Play.
The play, "a Lucky STAR is one of
the cleverest things in which Collier
has been seen since he has been ap-
pearing at the head of his own COM
pany with Charles F'rohman as his
manager. The dialogue is smart, and
with Collier, a polished and natural
actor, for its chief exponent, it early
arouses the enlightened auditor, and
is a continuous laugh producer. The
company was of the Froh- |
man standard, and the staging was
elaborate and complete in detail. |
There was a large attendance to greet |
Collier and his company.

ter as a fertilizer Reduction, while
very successful in many American
cities, is hardly practical for a city OF
this size. There is not enough refuse
to make it pay. Cremation or incin-
Grafton is today considered the most
popular method, especially as all forms
of refuse can be destroyed, such as
garbage, rubbish, offal, manure, night
soil, dead animals and ashes. These
are burned under a high temperature
in an incinerator which is a large brick
or metal furnace with a high chimney
| to carry off the odor. The operating
expenses are small, from 25 to 80 cents
per ton Practically no other fuel is
needed other than the refuse to be
burned. In some cities the steam
generated therefrom is used to electri-
fly the streets, buildings, run pumps.
engines. etc. There is no odor or
other Objectionable features about a
properly managed incinerator, and in
a number of cities 1t is situated in the
business district without causing any
complaint. According to statistics for
last season. we collected six tons of
garbage per day, or 1921 tons for the
five months, at cost Of $401 80 per
month. or $1.6O per ton. What we
need is an incinerator built in a CEN
trail location, for instance at the foot
of Twenty-fourth street on the river
bank. This would make the haul cen
trail for all the garbage and rubbish
wagons. The cost of a 20 to % ton
capacity per day incinerator, which is
the size needed here, would be be-
tween $4,000 and $15, 900. Therefore
I urge that committee be appointed
this year to investigate this important
matter and that provision be made in
next years appropriations for such

Danger from Surface Wells.
The peculiar situation of this city
on a rock base with a natural drain
age above accounts for the unanimous
reports of the contamination of the |
surface wells This is especially true
of those wells west of Thirtieth street |
These surface wells drain filth and |
sewage from the surroundings and are |
a constant source of danger. Only !
water from those wells drilled in to |
deep rock should be used for drinking |
purposes.

goers been invited to look at a play
so beautifully costumed, so handsome

now regarded as the very first among
the creators of beautiful stage pictures.
1t is safe to say that the work of THE

been eXcelled in an American light

THIRD TIE GAME
PLAYED FRIDAY
The Mavericks and Indians
Again Play a Nine In
ming Tie at, Park.

Three times in three days the Nav
ericks and the Cheyenne Indians
played tie games at Washington park
and an odd coincidence is that the
score for the third game was the same
as that for the first, each side scoring
three runs.
There were only a few fans out TO
see the game at the fair grounds Fri
Chicag Philadelphia game having
taken turn to the southwest and
made ideal football weather, but not
the wind of warmth that spitball ar
lists enjoy.
However, despite the lack of enthu-
siasm on the part of local fandom, the
men battled from start to finish and
the game was a most interesting one.
Not once in thew hole nine innings OF
play did the Mavericks boot a ball or
make anything that looked like an
error. Cheyenne, to the contrary, made
six nasty ones, but managed to hold
the Mavericks down to three runs.
Ell Paso had the game won until the
end of the fateful ninth, when the men
from Wyoming made battle rally and
scored a third run, tieing the game.
Saturday promises to be another
good game, and Pug Cavet, who goes
to Detroit next season, will oppose
Harry Ables, and the fans will have
an opportunity to see a battle royal
between the two southpaws The
score of Fridays game is:
