cases reported to the authorities and IL is
presumed that several more such occur.
Tcnces have happened
The matter was first called TO the at

Tuesday. The marriage certificate the
daughter showed the mother did not look
genuine and the mother became sus-
ricious, Search OF the marriage license
record showed that no license had been
issued to the young woman and the mah
she believed she had married.
Another Omaha woman went 10 the
clerks office a few days ago to look
through the marriage license record. She

the pages that the attention Of Clerh
lTollinger was attracted. In answer TO his
queries she told him she had been mar

ing the office a few days before. Sht
said she had accompanied the man &c
whom she was welded from her home In
Omaha. They crossed the river in q
street car and her fiance left her at one
of the 1O-cent stores while he went TO the
court house to secure the license. Wher

to be married by Council Bluffs jus

Mr.. Nelson took an active part in
the management of the Star up until
about a month ago when his condi-
ton changed for the worse.
Although his physicians constantly ad-
vlsed against the part he was taking dur
ing the last few months, In the manage
ment OF the paper. he refused TO obey
them.
During the last month, however, Mr..
Nelson has been conscious only at in
terval. At each period his mind was clear
and he constantly asked questions about
his newspaper and the members OF its
staff.
Native of Indiana.
Mr.. Nelson was born in Fort Wayne
Ind, March z, 1871 He came OF two CEN
turtles of American ancestors.
Mr.. Nelson was educated at Notrs

Georgia, Just after the war he returned
to Indiana and became a general con
tractor. He engaged in the building Of
roads, pavements and bridges, and wal
associated IL a contract for the construc
ton of the southern Illinois state peniten
tiary.
Admiration for the reform work OF Sam

NEED STRONG POWER

pei Obedience to Decree.
RosEwATER TO woMANs CLUB

Not until an international tribunal
for the settlement of world questions,
backed by power to enforce It's de-
crees, has been evolved, will perma-
nent world peace be assured. This
was the judgment of Victor Rose
water, editor of The Bee, as set forth
in talk to the Woman's club Mon
day afternoon,
DR.. Rosewater reviewed all the
fallacies which had been advanced
by pacificists, prior to the outbreak
of the European war, to establish the
fact that no great world war would
ever occur, and showed how each had
failed. He quoted especially David
Starr Jordan. who lectured in Omaha
for the Carnegie Peace Foundation,
and other thinking men who believed
that great wars we're thing of the
past.
Reasons for Peace.
That modern warfare costs too much
money: that the armament must be 90
we'll equipped at great outlay Of time
and money; the growing interdependence
of commercial relations; the spread of
peace propaganda: interchange OF educa-
ton and scholarship; the growing spirit
of altruistio fellowship and religious
brotherhood: the popular intelligence and
growing democracy Of the world, were
cited as reasons advanced why there
| would he no more wnr.

focused to prevent a world war. When
