license and marriage had been legiti-
mate.
The clerk asked II she had been given
a certificate Of marriage and she said
she had not. nor had one been handed
her supposed husband after the road
side marriage.
She was directed to the office OF
County Attorney Swanson by the depu-
ties of the clerks office.
Makes Practice Of II.
The man who Is impersonating q
Justice Of the peace in such imposi-
tions. seems, from stories which have
come into the city, to be making a
practice Of this form Of felony and
there are some ugly rumors Of hap
penings at the farm place where he
stays with woman who formerly con-
Quoted a house Of Ill repute in Council
Bluffs. but retired to the country some
years ago and makes pretense of con-
Quoting small farm.
This farm is well known to Omaha
demimonde and in the warm season
automobiles are seen frequently driv-
ing to this place from Omaha-and
also from Council Bluffs.
The county attorneys office will seek
all available information regarding the
impersonation of an officer by this
mysterious Justice and there is already
some evidence which will bear heavily
before grand jury.
Besides the two cases reported to the
clerk of the court there have been
stories Of two others which were not
reported but which are practically

It recites that evidence Of an nm
usual desire for ihfofmation concern
ing the bank was shown by Williams
shortly after he. assumed the Office
OF comptroller more than year ago and
has continued ever since. Prior to that
time. in December. 1913, 1t says Nc
Adoo charged officers of the bank
with responsibility for publications re-
garding the official conduct OF the de-
PENDANT Williams as assistant secre-
tary Of the treasury.
Says MeAdeo Cursed Him.
When this charge was denied by
the officials, the bill asserts Secretary
McAdoo cursed Milton Il. Allies. vice
president of the bank and said to z.

CEDAR VALLEY CONTESTS TO De
HELD ON STATE NORMAL I
FIELD.
MAY IS SELECTED As
DATE FOR GATHERING
Declamatory Contest to % Hold in
Evening Between Schools Represents
cd in Assoeiation-Many Schools in
North Central Iowa to Enter Com
petition For Honors.

Cedar Falls, April 13-Thru the eff
forts Of Coach Ward, the Cedar Falls
high school has secured the Cedar
Valley track meet and declamatory
contest for this year. The meet will
occur May Is and all the high schools
in this section of the state will partici-
pate. The meet will probably be held
at the Cedar Valley district fair
grounds unless other arrangements
are made. The "T. c." club of Teach
ers' College has been endeavoring to
obtain the meet and now that 1t has
been given to the high school the lat
ter may see At to turn it over to the
r. c.. Club. in which event the meet
will be held on College field.
Negotiations had been under way for
some time between the local high
school authorities and the officers OF
the Cedar Valley Association, Super
intendent Pye, of Waukon, and II. l..
Folger, of Independence, but 1t was
not until late last week that Coach
Ward received notification that Cedar
Falls had been given the meet in pref
erence to Manchester, which also made
strong bid.
This means the Cedar Valley title
holder, Cedar Falls, may defend the
cup in it's home city The large sill
yer loving cup which Is awarded each
year by the association to the team
winning the meet, has been held for
the past year by the Cedar Falls high
school who won it at Independence
last spring after thrilling finish in
which the team from Oelwein was lead
ing until the last two events. From
present Indications they will have a
strong team again this year with which
to defend their title as champions OF
the Cedar Valley Association. Some
very promising material has been dis
covered in Bailey, a short distance
runner, and Stelzer. shot-putter.
Brown has also shown form in throw
ing the discus.

GENERAL GIRLS vlcTiMIzED BY
BOGUS JUSTICE OF THE
PEACE.
SUPPOSED MARRIAGES
FOUND TO BE ILLEGAL
Two Womsn Make Formal Complaint
to County Attorney and Others Are
Known TO Have Been Led Into Fake
Wedding csremonies-co County Rec
ords Show No Licenses Were Issued.

Council Bluffs, April 13.-At least
two women have been victimized In
Council Bluffs within the past two
weeks by false marriages performed by
q man posing as a country justice ioI
the peace. Other stories Of similar oc-
currences have been heard in a few
instances within recent months and the
attention of County Attorney Swanson
has been directed to the situation. He
is investigating and it Is probable a
quite lucrative business enterprise OF
the community will be discontinued.
Late last week q woman who lives In
Omaha applied at the office Of the
clerk OF the district court to ascertain
1 If license had been issued to her
daughter, who is living in Omaha with
man whom, she told her mother, she
married in Council Bluffs last Tuesday.
The mothers suspicious were aroused
in some way and she came to the city
to Investigate. After searching the
records the clerk was obliged to tell
her that no such license had been is
sued.
The mother said the daughter had
told her she was married by a Justice
of the peace, with whiskers," and re-
siding just outside the limits Of the
city.
Another Case Reported.
Recently, also. another woman ap-
piled to the clerk, much worried, to
learn IL marriage license had been is
sued for her marriage to an Omaha
man. None had been and she told with
much agitation Of being brought to the
city and left at one of the 10-cent
stores while the prospective BRIDE
groom went after the license.
He returned and told her it was so
late the justices had left the court
house and at his suggestion the pair
took taxicab and drove to a country
home short distance outside the city,
where man supposedly the justice Of
the peace, was called to the side Of the
car and the would-be groom handed
him a paper supposed by the woman to
be the marriage license.
The Justice again described as wear
Ing beard, took the paper and pre-
tended to read from a book he carried,
collected his fee and the couple re-
turned to Council Bluffs.
After living together for about a
week the, actions Of the man caused the
woman to become suspicious and she

Mrs. Samuel Lewis, one of the pio-
neer settlers of this city, died at her
home Thursday morning. Sarah john

Waterloo.
A special train is being arranged by
local admen to carry delegates living
along the Illinois Central in Iowa to
the national convention In Chicago In
June. Thirty applications have already
been received. It is the plan to make
up q train from admen living in Fort
Dodge, Sioux City, Waterloo, Dubuque
and other cities. The Town Criers. re-
Gently reorganized are headed by,
Harry e. Kiester, who made such a
signal success of the special train to
/ Baltimore two years ago. A special eff
fort will be made by the club, working
in unison with the commercial bodies,
| to procure a large number of conven-
lions for Waterloo in 1916.
Sioux City.
Twenty five master plumbers of
Sioux City, in a petition presented to
| the council Saturday asked that the
money paid for four years rs license
fee be returned, declaring that the
court had held that the license fee was
unreasonable and Illegal: The annual
| amount asked returned by the plumb
ers totals $3,400. On motion of Coun-,
Gilman Wesley the petition was re-
jected. It is the belief of the council
members that the master plumbers are
not entitled to return Of the license
fee. The license was paid without
protest and tho city attorney has held
that the plumbers can not collect.
There Is a possibility that the plumb
ers will carry the case to>the courts in
an effort to collect the fees,

Temporary and permanent injunc-

various kinds, are ought from the
court.
One portion of the petition seeks to
rest in John Burke treasurer of the
United States from payment into the
treasury of $1,000. declared to be due
to the bank as interest Of 100000 of
United States bonds deposited with the
comptroller against it's note circulation.
This interest was withheld to cover
penalties of 500 per day for failure of
the bank to make certain reports of
funds paid into the treasury. only an
act of congress could get the $1,000
out. and Justice Mccoy late yesterday
granted a temporary injunction on this
phase of the case.
