EX-VICE PRESIDE
STEVENSON is DEAD

Hon. Ada Stevens son, a former
Vice President of the United
States with Grover Cleveland,
died Saturday night at a hospi-
tai after an illness of several
months. His three children were
at his bedside.
Adlai Stevenson, once Vice
President of the United States,
had long and honorable public
career. He was Vice President

Democratic party for Vice Pres
ident and ran with William ].

and 45th Congresses. From
1885 to 1880 he served as first
assistant postmaster general UNI
der President Cleveland.
His last appearance as can
didate for public Office was in

Democratic party and was de-
feated by Charles S. Deneen,
Republican. He was born in
Christian county, KY, October
20, 1885, of Scotch-Irish paren-

NEW MARRIAGE LAW

The new marriage license
law passed by the last Kentucky
Legislature went into effect
Monday morning, June IS, and
makes the securing of a mar
riage license decidedly more diff
ficult.
Heretofore when the clerk is
suing a marriage license was sat
isfed as to the age of the con-
tracing parties, nothing further
was asked but things will be
different when a couple, old or
young, steps up to the counter
and calls for the document that
will unite them.
After the groom gives his age
to the clerk (and by the way the
bride has to be present and an
swer for herself) he will be re-
quired to give the names of his
parents, place of birth, occupa-
ton, and whether single or di-
vorced. To make the matter
Just a little more binding as well
as difficult, the clerk may in his
discretion, require the execution
of a bond in the sum of 500
with good security. Both pros
pective bridegroom and bride-to-
be must also state the con dition
of their health.
The new law is designed after
the stringent requirements of
the Michigan statute. While it
is thus made difficult and at
times embarrassing to procure
license to wed, the laxity of the
divorce laws, especially the Reno
law, which only requires six
months residence in the state,
remain the same and the grind
of the divorce mill steadily in
creases.

Perhaps the greatest contribut-
ing influence has been the names
