NEW MARRIAGE BILL WOULD
PUT DIVORCES IN POOR'S REACH

STOCKHOLM, Nov. 14.-To bring
divorce within the reach of the poor
and to place women on an equality
with men in the marriage relation
are the principal objects of new
marriage bill today submitted by the
United Parliamentary committees of
Sweden, Norway and Denmark to the
respective parliaments.
The measure provides for sort of
trial divorce" Each divorce must
be preceded by period of legal sep
aration. Various conditions are laid
down whereby it will be found con-
venient end expeditions for candi-
dates for matrimony to provide them
selves with medical certificates. MIN
ors may not marry without the con-
sent of both parents, and no girl
under Is years of age may marry.
The bill abolishes the kings preor-
gative in granting divorce, and there
are several clauses aimed at the i'm
provement of conditions of illegiti-
mate and adopted children.

Gently looking up the precedents in
the failure of President Hayes to rec
ognize President Diaz, who had ac-
ceded to the presidency through the
support of the army in 1876.
That difficulty was soon smoothed
out, for Diaz at once demonstrated
his ability to maintain peace. A
more important episode was one oc-
curing more than fifty years ago
which was overshadowed by the ap-
proach of the Civil war. At the time
however, it threatened to produce in
tervention and a march on the City
of Mexico by the American army.
During the presidency of Buchanan
there were some quick changes in
Mexican affairs which resulted in
two governments, one headed by
Juarez at Vera Cruz, the other
headed by Miramon at the City of
Mexico. Meanwhile four American

MAN WHO CLUBBED HIS
WIFE TO DEATH is HANGED

RAWLINS, Wyo., Nov. Al
Warren Jenkins, who clubbed his wife
to death in their home at Cheyenne
in April, 1912, paid the penalty on
the scaffold in the Wyoming state
prison here today. The state su-
preme court and Governor Carey
having both refused to interfere in
his behalf the sentence of death was
carried out.
The trap was sprung at 2:45 and
he was pronounced dead at 2:49.
Jenkins last words were: 81 did
not kill my wife. | don't know who
did,"
Jenkins, who formerly lived ir
Brighton, Colo, killed his wife, for
merly Miss Jessie Root Leffingwell
of Brighton, on April IA, 1912 al
Cheyenne. The state proved by cir.
cumstantial evidence that the mar
plotted to get rid of his wife in ord
er to inherit her estate of $4,000
His trial was sensational in the ex.
treme, one of the grewsome exhibits
in the courtroom being the skull OF
Mrs. Jenkins. In summing up his
evidence during the trial, the prose.
cutor seized this skull and gave a
vivid description of how the prisoner
had slain his wife.
After his conviction, Jenkins fought
hard to escape the gallows. He car.
ried his case to the supreme court
which decided against his appeal
Governor Carey last Monday an
nounced that he would not interfere

gallows used in Cheyenne 21 years
ago when Charles Miller, boy, wa:

who killed Willie Nickel, was alsC

FORGER ARRESTED AT IGNACIO

Ysidoro Martinez was arrested at
Ignacio today charged with passing
worthless checks in Durango amount
ing to $67.OO.
The first offense was committed
Tuesday night and the second one
yesterday about noon. Both were
discovered yesterday afternoon. The
blank checks were stolen from the
check book of Chavez and Salazar at
the Santa Fe saloon more than six
weeks ago. The first, for $2S, was
cashed by Mr.. Hanson at the 0rien-
tai saloon, Tuesday evening, in pay
ment for a bottle of whiskey and a
drink. The second was cashed at the
Graden Mercantile company yester-
day about noon. The Mexican enter
ed the store and purchased pair of
shoes worth $3.50. He rendered a
check for $39 and the same was ac-
cepted and cashed Later it was dis
covered both were forged.
The officers were notified and the
police force and county sheriff's force
started out to find the offender, aided
in their efforts by the men who had
been taken in.
Every man of Spanish descent who
carried new pair Of shoes was un-
der suspicion. This morning Sheriff
Fassbinder boarded the eastern and
found person who seemed to ans
wer the description. He took him off
the train and hurried him back to the
county bastile in charge of Sam
Ethridge. He still entertained a
doubt about this being the guilty man
and he continued his travels to lg-
nacio where he located Martinez, who
was carrying bundle that looked
like small roll of blankets. Upon
opening this the officer found new
pair of shoes inside that correspond
ed in size and make to those pur-
chased at Graden's. He arrested the
man and hastened him to Durango by
auto, with Will Hall acting as his
custodian.
Rich Cram, the clerk at Graden's
who sold him the shoes, was called in
and identified them and the pur-
chaser. There seems little doubt
about his being the offender.
The epidemic of forgery which has
been riot in this section for the past
three months mas caused the officers
and business men no end of trouble,
they are determined to stamp it out.
If eternal vigilance will do it they
certainly will succeed. If we recall
correctly no one of the offenders have
made their escape.

Miramon's generals.


Juarez could do nothing about this,
since the outrages took place outside
of his jurisdiction. So Buchanan ask
ed congress for authority to send
troops into Mexico to collect indemn-
ity for the past and provide security
for the future. Congress, however,
was much more interested in do,nes-
tic affairs and paid no attention to
the request.
At length Miramon laid siege to
Vera Cruz and sent two of his gun
boats down the coast. They were
followed by an American warship,
the Saratoga, and by vessel in the
service of Juarez, which captured
them. AT once there was an uproar
in the United States. Opinion wgs
divided. One party insisted that the
action of the Saratoga was unwar-
ranted, the other that it was proper
and that this country should take
charge Of Mexico. Intervention was
in the air when the presidential cam
paign of 1860 came on and Mexico
was straightway forgotten, not to be
remembered again until the war be-
tween the states was ended and Sc
ward was telling the Third Napoleon
that the United States would apprec-
