mary school Three of the teachers

ALEX ZALAC GETS
OUT OF TROUBLES
Manages TO Squeeze From Prosecution
on Serious Charge by Engineering
ipIOmatIc Moves.
TO PAY FOR TONY's DIVORCE
Adultery Charge Is Dropped When
"Other MAN. Makes Ofer to Settle
All Expenses Incurred.

Alex Zalac. the "other man" in the
Ioknar divorce case, or his lawyer, OF
somebody who is interested in his
welfare, is a great little fixer.
Alex figures in one OF the most pc
culiar procedures that has ever gone
on court records in Rock Island coun-
ty, as follows:
He agrees TO pay all court costs for
the divorce case of Tony Loknar, the
man who accused him of breaking UP
his home.
Mrs. Cecilia Loknar agrees to with
draw the petition for divorce which
she fled charging her husband bit her
on the arm and treated her cruelty.
This leaves Tony's cross bill standing
uncontested.
Alex. in the agreement. will not be
prosecuted on the charge OF adultery
which was preferred against him by
Loknar as part of his reply to the SEN
sationaI divorce bill his wife filed.
All OF which means that develop
ments in the affair are at an end. with
the withdrawal of Mrs. Loknar's Dill,
Tony will be able to secure divorce
without contest. The cost will be paid
by Alex.
Fined for Assault
Alex was fined 81 and costs before
Justice of the Peace Van Noorden on
charge of assault and battery pre-
ferred by Tony. Tony alleged that he
! went to Zalacs home, where he found
his wife Words followed and the two
men were soon engaged in fight over
the woman.
When the hearing was ended Alex
was rearrested Immediately on the
adultery charge. The case was sched-.
uled TO have been heard before Justice
of the Peace Clarence J. Schroeder
yesterday afternoon. but at the ap-
pointed time the state requested that
the case be dismissed.
Alex had succeeded in securing re-
lief from prosecution by offering to
pay the costs for Tony's divorce. which
is a cheap way out of it considering
that Alex will not be bothered in the
future over the matter.
Alex is second cook at the New Har-
per house.

TWELFTH PAVING
IS PROGRESSING
Work on Street Completed to Chippian'
mock Cemetery Gate-Driveway to
BE Put in at New Grade.

Progress is being made on the paw
ing of Twelfth street, having reached
and passed the gateway at Chippian-
mock cemetery. leaving the gateway
and drive entering the graveyard be
tween three and four feet above the
new street level 1t is here that con-
siderable dispute arose as to who
should pay for lowering the cemetery
gate and driveway.
The cemetery association is under
stood to have insisted that the city
bear the expense and the city in turn,
holding that it was private property,
believed the association should have
the work done and shoulder the ex-
pense of doing it.
1t appears that the city's argument
was the more persuasive one for E. H.
Guyer. an officer of the cemetery asso-
citation, has announced that the con-
tract fOrfthe work has been awarded
and the work will be started imme-
diately
According to Mr.. Guyer the driveway
to the cemetery will be lowered from
the street back into the cemetery to
where the roads fork, distance of
some 200 feet. At the street level it
will be necessary to lower the present
grade nearly four feet and it will be
graduated within the 200 feet of grad
ing. A macadamized surface will be
put on the driveway the same as it
has been in the past, and it is expected
that it will be ready for use within a
few weeks, as the Twelfth street paw
ing is already completed that far.
