Several contracts were awarded at
the meeting of the board of works this
morning. The letting of the contract
for improving North Seventh street
was delayed. Contractor White of
Greenfield, who has never bid for any
work In this city before, submitted
bids on this improvement, and reduced
the prevailing prices from twenty to
twenty-five cents on the cubic yard for
brick paving. However he submitted
no prices for a cement street, and con-
tractor Hipskind entered a bid for a
cement street at $3.50 per cubic yard.
Some of the property owners along
the street seem to want this kind of a
street SO that tn board decided to hold
up the improvement until the views Of

COURT PLACES BAN
ON DIVORCE PACTS
Refuses Divorce in Coppock
Case Because of Such an
-. Agreement.

Very interesting was the testimony
produced In the hearing of the suit
for divorce of Pearl G. Coppock versus
Chester Coppock in the Wayne cir
cult court this morning. After listen
ing to the testimony OF the important
witnesses Judge Fox declared that he
IOuld not grant divorce and would
] ar no further testimony, despite
- plea of the attorney for the plain
although cruel and inhumap treat
ent and failure to provide were the
I Arges contained in the complaint
her incidents were brought out
Itch made the case more interesting.
About one year ago the defendant in
this suit filed a divorce action charg-
ing his wife with being guilty of in
fidelity. The complaint was with
drawn some time ago and shortly af-
terward Mrs. Coppock filed her di-
vorce suit.
In testifying today the defendant de-
clared that an agreement had been
made between his wife and himself at
a law office to the effect that Coppock
would not oppose any suit for divorce
his wife might file and that he would
leave town providing his wife after
her divorce would never marry man
of Catholic faith, as he said he did
not wish his child to be taken into the
Catholic church. The defendant de-
clared that this was agreed to, but
when papers were drawn up, the plain
tiff refused to sign them. He said he
then decided to oppose her divorce.
1t was after Coppock had testified
to this that Judge Fox made the state
ment that he would refuse decree.
divorce when it is known that an
agreement has been made between the
two parties to secure divorce.
Mrs. Coppock is now employed at
the Stillwell hotel, in the capacity OF
cook. Mrs. Mary A. Stillwell, who is
obliged to use a crptch in walking,
testified in favor Of the plaintiff. She
declared that prior to the separation
of the plaintiff and defendant the
plaintiff asked for employment at the
hotel and it was given her Shortly
afterward the defendant came into the
hotel and demanded to know whether
Mrs. Stillwell intended to keep the
plaintiff in her employment, saying
that she was not fit to work any place.
What did you tell Mr.. Coppock,"
the witness was asked. ..
II said. You get out of here right
away or I'll take my crutch and
knock your head. off," was the an
swer.
We'll did he get out" the judge
then queried.
Il should say he did"
Another divorce suit was filed to-
day, Bessie Bunce being the plaintiff
in an action asking divorce from Har-
ry Bunce. and custody of their child.
The complainant charged desertion.
They were married in 1907 and separ-
ated in 1910.

establishment of rival clubs i'm Ameri-
