DIVORCE RESULTS
SHOWN IN COURT
Four Children Were. Made
Wards of the County
Board of Guardians.

The result Of two divorce suits in
the Wayne circuit court was mani.
tested Monday in the juvenile court
when four. children were made wards
of the board Of children's guardians
and sent to Whites institute Three
children Of William Hoover, John Le-
Roy. Eleanora and Zola May, and Del.
bert Yocum, the son of Aaron Yocum,
were the children disposed of in this
manner.
Hoover up to a few years ago lived
with his wife. Sarah Hoover, until they
moved to this city and took in board
ers, one Of whom got the habit of go.
ing to the Hoover homestead intoxi.
Gated and when Hoover canned
him. his wife left too. He then secur.
ed divorce but found the duties OF
caring for his children to be too great
as he had to work nearly twelve hours
a day. He placed the children in the
Home for the Friendless. but as this
arrangement, was unsatisfactory he
consented to the children becoming
wards Of the board of guardians.
The Yocums were divorced several
years ago and the mother. Lizzie Yo.
cum, took charge of the child, aged
about eight years. The burden of car.
ing for both herself and the child was
too much and at Dayton last summer
she committed suicide. The father
Aaron Yocum, then took the child for
short time but II is alleged desert.
ed 1t. at least the authorities have
been unable to find him, as he is out
OF the city.

RECORD ESTABLISHED
BY Dayton & Western Lin
tied Car.

Tossed from side to side and each
minute experiencing the feeling that
the next would be their last, passen-
gers on the night Dayton and Western
limited interurban on last Thursday
evening were certain the motorman
had either gone mad or that the car
had gotten beyond his control. Before
Dayton was reached, however, the con-
ductor announced that a speed record
for the road was being broken and
from that minute on the passengers
forgot danger and took keen in
terest in the reckless speed at which
the car was being propelled.
The car leaves Richmond regularly
at 9:55 o'clock and its schedule time to
make the forty mile trip to Dayton is
an hour and twenty-five minutes. Pow
er trouble delayed the car at the Glen
for more than an hour. Having q
clear track, conductor H. B. Stanley
and motorman w. A. Robbins held q
consultation and determined to go at
ter the speed record. The car pulled
out of Richmond at 1866 o'clock and
at 11:50 the final stop in Dayton had
been reached. the exact running time
being 55 minutes.
The feat has aroused much interest
among employees and officials of the
company and it is highly probable that
as a result Of the trip the schedule
time will be reduced to more nearly
that maintained by the fastest trains
of the steam road between these two
points.
