ITALIAN DIVORCED
FROM NEGRO WOMAN

Matrimonial amalgamation of the
negro and white race received black
eye on Wednesday morning when
Judge H. c. Fox granted a divorce to
Marco Deluccio; an Italian, employed
at the Pennsylvania roundhouse, from
Minnie Deluccio, part colored. who is
now alleged to be living in Cleveland,
Ohio, with William Burden, colored.
In addition to cruel and inhuman
treatment, such as refusal to cook his
meals, clean up their house on Sher.
man street, and squandering money
appropriated for household necessities
and desertion in May, 1911, the com
plainant alleged mis- wife was of loose
character. She is fair enough to be
known as a white woman, and so she
represented herself during their court
ship, but shortly after their marriage
in September 1909, Deluccio said she
informed him to his great discomfort
that she was part colored and pre-.
ferred to associate with colored peo
pie.
Deluccio appeared to be remarka
bly, bright Italian and though he emf
grated but few years ago, his Eng
lish was considered excellent. He ans
wered questions with the characters
tic Italian quickness. In telling of their
separation he said that on May 16, he
gave his wife $40 and left the house to
return shortly afterwards finding the
trunk with her clothes and the better
household articles missing, evidently
all packed in the trunk.

vice in its former condition before the
heavy STORM about five weeks ago. At
the present the company has thirty
five men working on the lines.
Mr.. Bailey does not say that the
lines are in good condition. but adj
mits that since the storm poor SER
vice has been given in a good many
cases, but he says that. the lines are
being put back in good condition and
within a short time there will be
very little trouble.
The trouble lies in the fact tina, Ii
is exceptionally hard to re-establish
confidence in the company's service,
after bad service has been given" said
Mr. Bailey Persons call a number
calling enough time to answer the
phone. They hang up the receiver
and call trouble. Another thing, the
trouble department is always busy and
the operators cannot answer all calls
as soon as they are made.
ut is to the company's advantage to
place tho service in the best possible
condition" Mr.. Bailey continued. THE
company loses money and time when
lines are out of order and we are
sparing nothing to give the public the
best service possible.
Since this company has practically
secured a monopoly l have worked
much harder than before to give the
public good telephone service

schedule of committee meetings, and

as to what offices would have to be

With this, the meeting adjourned.
Mary Harold, of Greenfield, Ind, had

AN INSPECTION OF
TOWNSHIP SCHOOLS
DR.. King Finds Deadly Roller
Towel and Public Drink
ing Cup in Use.

AS a result of his tour of inspection
of the public schools in Boston. Alb
ington and Center Townships yester-
day, County Health Officer ]. E. King
reports that although the schools in
lures that need remedying, they are as
a whole in good enough condition for
use by the children
DR.. Kings most important discovery
during his trip was the need of an in
spector in each township whose sole
business would be to examine the
pupils and buildings of the several in
situations of instruction.
One of the alarming situations
which the health guardian encounter
ed was an outbreak of skin diseases
in one school. DR.. King said that I'M
less the afflicted pupils were at once
treated by doctors, the disease would
probably spread through the whole
school, an event that would be attend
ed by serious consequences At anoth-
er school. DIR. King went into a we'll
filled recitation room. and found every
window in the apartment closed tight
ly. Such conditions as these are what
cause the county official to believe
that inspectors are badly needed II
each township would employ man
who had for his entire work the in.
spection of the conditions affecting the
students health, these examiners
could make thorough study of indi
vidual cases, and enforce their cure
The county health officer can only
make infrequent trips to each school
and even then he can not see that his
instructions are put into effect Many
pupils, says DR.. King, are failing il
their studies because of poor health
when they do not realize the situa
| ton.
! In dealing with the roller towel anG
public drinking cup, DR.. King has ha6
hard time convincing some teachers
of the evils of these institutions Al
some schools he has found only one
large tin cup provided for all the pu
pills. He has taken the matter up with
the instructors all over the county
and has tried to make them see tht
benefits of individual cups and towels

The session was started with a
prayer and a song by the congrega-

This was followed by song and a
series Of prayers. A member OF the
congregation then expressed the hope
that the Spirit would lead and stay
with those at the session, and make
the meeting this year the best one
ever held.
Anna Roberts. the recording clerk.
called the roll of representatives from
the various meetings, and over hun
dred delegates responded. One of the

denomination provided that the COM

number. 1t made no such provision for
having at least one man, and the West
Branch delegate asked that some &C.
ton be taken to make the situation
fair for the men. In response, Clerk
Timothy Nicholson read the rules re-
lating to the two disputed questions.

The rook appears to have become
the bird whose name stands for swim
dlers In a distinctly unfair way, the
London Chronicle says. At first "rook"
meant dupe, then the verb ITO rook''
came to mean TO cheat, and out OF
this was evolved 'rook," cheater-a
complete topsy turvy process. 1t is
curious that the same thing has not
happened to gull" Here also the
verb came from the substantive mean
ing a dupe, and, as the gull strikes
one as rather knowing bird, one
might have expected the same evolu-
ton as In the case of the rOok. IL
should be observed, however. that
gull" a dupe. did not refer specially
to the seagull, the word having for
merly meant young bird Of any
kind. In Elizabethan English it signi.

Lion Siana In Enaland.

In the middle ages the country
houses OF the nobility In England when
the owners were absent were used as
hostels for travellers. The family arms
always hung In front Of the house
and gave it popular name among
travellers. who called lion "gules" or
azure simply red or blue" As these
mere intimations of good cheer and
entertainment innkeepers adopted the
idea. Lions have always been and are
now very favorite signs In England
lions white, black. red, brown, golden.
yelow-red being the most common.
Probably the Red Lion originated with
the badge of John OF Gaunt. duke of
Lancaster. who married the daughter
of Don Pedro. king of Leon and Cas-
tile, and who adopted the lion ram
pant gules OF Leon to represent his
claim to the throne. Under Richard
and John lions became the settled
arms OF England and we're generally
used by those who could find any
claim.

To the snorers who ask for the cure
let the cause be announced Snoring
is the result Of stomachic repletion and
mental vacuity A correspondent who
has suffered from both prescribes the
cure-a light supper or none, to

vide occupation for the mind during
sleeping hours. Go TO bed and think
OF some short literary phrase to occu-
