MARRIED IN WRONG COUNTY.
Newlyweds Owe State of Iowa $50
Each, Got License i'm One County
Married i'm Another.

Out in Jasper county near Prairie
City, probably on some broad acred
farm, is happy married couple en-
joying their honeymoon In bliss and
unconscious of the fact that they
and the two witnesses who were
present at their wedding on Jan. 4
1916, under the strict terms of the
law, owe the school fund of the state
the sum of $50 each.
When Cornelius Kraay, aged 26,
procured marriage license In Des
Moines to wed Miss Susie Elizabeth
Aartsen, age IS, it is probable that
the young man thought that the IL
cense was good any place in the
United States, so long as it was pro-
cured and duly witnessed and paid
for
Evidently Kraay, whose occupa-
ton is given as farmer, did not
know that the license issued to him
in Polk county had to be used in this
county. 1t is evident that the min
lister who pronounced the few words
that made Kraay and Miss Aartsen
man and wife, was also ignorant as
to the law.
These evidences came to light yes
terday when the return of the mar
riage, signed by the Rev. p. II G.
Meengs, pastor of the First Reform
ed church at Prairie City, fluttered
into the county clerks Office in the
morning mail.
The return shows that the couple
were wed by the Rev. Mr.. Meengs on
Jan. 4, 1916. at Prairie City, Ia,
which is in Jasper county.
Under the law, the wedding is
valid, but the bride and groom and
the two witnesses are liable to a for
fixture of $50 each, which goes to
the school fund of the state The
minister who performed the cere.
monv is not subject to payment OF
! the $50.

Put Mother, Not
Baby, on Bottle

You never heard this argument
before. We all know Mothers milk
is best for baby. But what to give
the mother to enable her to supply
baby with a sufficient amount of
nourishing milk is the problem.
We have found in hundreds of
cases that HEMO is a nourishment
that will increase the milk supply
and at the same time enable mother
to get much needed strength. Then
too, it is so appetizing and delicious
fhat it is welcomed at time when
most foods are not.

STAR OF TRIANGLE PLAY

A story of the plains in the days
when Indian attacks were a real men
ace, is ''The Bugle Can,"~ Triangle
drama starring Willie Collier, Jr., and
to be seen at the Isis tomorrow.
Young Collier, 14-year-old son of
the famous Broadway star, has the
role of Little Billy, son of the COM
mandant at Fort Mcpherson, a from
tier army post, and loved by every
one in the place. He has one ambi-
ton in life, and that is to become a
good soldier; and one military
achievement he already has learned
to play the army bugle. 1t is only
the good soldier in him that makes
him tolerate the idea that his father
is to marry again, for he cannot con-
ceive of any one good enough to take
his dead mothers place.

Three Godfathers" was the best story
ever printed in that wonderful week
ly. Bluebird Photoplays, Inc, ever on
the alert for the best of all things
adaptable to moving pictures, imne-
diately secured the Photographic
rights and today at the ISIS Theatre
this unusual narrative will be pre-
scented by a company of Bluebird's
best camera actors. The story tells
how three bandits acted as godfathers
to newly born infant, left in their
charge, in the middle of the Mojave
Desert, when the mother died. The
narrative conveys a great lesson of
humanitarianisn and shows how the
hearts of rugged men may be touched
by natures mandates under the most
unusual circumstances. "Peg o. the

SOLD % GENTS OF
CIGARETTES TO A
BOY; FINED s17.20

A clerk at the store of jim Cleo,
near the corner of Hayne and
Wright streets, few days ago sold
five cents worth of tobacco to
minor. The act was done while the
probation officer, Sam S. Pinney, was
looking on, and a warrant was made
both for the clerk and Cleo, the pro-
prietor. They we're charged with
selling cigarettes, etc, to minors, in
violation of the state laws and were
required to give bond for their ap-
pearance upon a date set for their
respective trials.
Jim Cleo, however, appeared at
the special plea day session of the
court of record yesterday and plead
ed guilty, taking the whole RESPONSE
bility for the sale by his clerk. Upon
such plea, he was given fine of S.
and costs, and in the event of it not
being paid, was to serve thirty days
in the county Jail. Cleo lost no time
in arranging for the fine, and
when he had finished, the five cents
worth of tobacco or cigarettes, had
cost him $17.20 1t is almost a sure
bet that he'll not sell cigarettes, nor
allow them sold, to minors, in the fu-
ture, especially when the probation
officer is around.
Several others appeared to plead in
the special Wednesday morning term
of the said court. Alex Wright and
Lala Roebuck, charged with having
engaged in an ARRAY, were fined 81
and costs or thirty days. M. J. Ear
nest, train riding, was given like
penalty, and Isiphone Randolph
charged with vagrancy, was given 81

Construction work on the new coal

rapidly progressing, but is being de-
layed because of the storm and re-
cent heavy rains. Excavations which

machinery were filled with water and
partially closed, which made it neces-
sary for much of the excavating to
be done again.
Phone communication with the city
exchange has been installed accord
