Fasteners Are Asking II Terms Of
Decree In Child Divorce suit
viii Bar Him From
New York.
WAS NOT TO RE-MARRY
According to New York Judge Who
Signed Mrs. Child's Papers, Right
to Re-marry Was Denied
Husband.

When Richard Washbu,l t.-lld 6
first wife secured her divorce last
April her husband was forbidden
under terms of the decree to remarry
during the lifetime of his wife.
Whether his new marriage will bar
him from New York in the future is
a matter Of speculation or the part
Of Boston friends of tho Interested
parties, according to the Boston
Herald. Following is clipping from
the Herald of August 1s anent the
wedding:
Friends of Richard Washburn Child,
author, attorney, and until recently a
leading progressive, expressed sur
prise yesterday at the announcement
of his wedding to Miss Maude Parker,
grandnfece of Gen. Daingereld Par
ker, U. s. A., retired, of Washington,
d. G. The ceremony occurred at Ha-
vana, Cuba, Aug. r., in the presence
of few intimate friends.
The event has added interest owing
to Mr.. Child's long residence in this
city and because his former wife,
Elizabeth Scott Child. obtained a d.
vorce last April. By the terms of the
decree, granted by Justice Cohalan of
the New York supreme court, Mr..
Child was forbidden to remarry dur
ing the lifetime of his former wife.
Whether his new marriage will bar
him from New York in the future was
a matter Of speculation yesterday.
Mr.. Child was graduated from Har-
ward in the class of '03 and in the fol-
lowing year was married at the Little
Church Around the Corner, New York,
to Elizabeth Scott of Arlington. Va.
Soon afterward he removed to Boston
and took up the work which gave him
national reputation as writer of
short stories.
Through his uncle, Charles Sumner
Bird, he became interested in the pro-
gressive party and was one of its
most enthusiastic supporters in this
section of the country. Mrs. Child
became we'll known in Boston as an
ardent suffragist and active worker
in many charitable causes.
Until about fifteen months ago the
Childs made their home in Boston and
when they went to New York, their
friends had no hint of domestic diff
culties. Mrs. Child brought suit in
January, 1916, and three months later
secured an interlocutory decree on
the ground of infidelity. The case
was uncontested.
After the divorce she went to live
with her aunt, Mrs. Elizabeth Taylor
of Baltimore, In a New York apart
ment.

HANDS A FEW BOUQUETS

A resident of Iowa for a number OF
years, who has returned to his ma
tive heath, has some very compliment
airy remarks to make concerning Keo-
kuk, in a communication to Burling-
ton paper. The writer who signs him
self Melrose, compares the differences
between the Iowa cities that he Wis.,
led and in his letter to the Hawk-Eye,
says of Keokuk:
1T was joy to me almost unspeak-
able when my feet pressed the dear
old Mississippi shore again as I
stepped off the train, northbound, at
Keokuk, and walked up the Main
street hill into the heart of the town
last Saturday night. The Gate City
never looked so good to me as it did
then and the next day, while / ram.
bled around and looked at everything
and everybody in sight.
II had come up from st. Louis, and
to that great metropolis from the
Ohio river cities and towns most of
the length of that beautiful stream,
then through the centers of Ohio, In
diana and Illinois to the Mississippi.
With these fresh views of some of the
finest parts of the United States and
after having seen and studied care
fully during my life twenty-seven
other states beside the Hawkeye land,
was just in the right condition of ex-
perience to contrast truthfully every
one and all things my eyes might be-
hold in Iowa.
keokuk Beauties.
"My first great impression as I
stepped from the cars at Keokuk was
the throng of handsome girls standing
at the depot-much better looking
than those / had noticed at Quincy,
Hannibal and st. Louis, also including
the chief inland towns of Illinois not
far back from the river. Another
sight in Keokuk that pleased me great
ly was the clean appearance of every
thing-business streets, residence
avenues, stores, public buildings, river
front and people. The latter said
business was quiet, but no one seemed
worried about the future. All were
good-natured and appeared to be en-.
joying themselves and at peace with
the rest of the world. Speaking CT
Keokuk's charming cleanness, I want
to say that is one Of the first and
greatest things about a city or town
to interest stranger. It pays big
from any standpoint 1t can be looked
at-appearance, pleasure, health, NOR
al and social uplift. The same Is true
