MUST TAKE CUT LICENSE
New Law Effective January I Compels
Those Who Wish to Marry BY
Common Law to Secure Permit

Madison - Getting married without
a ceremony will still be legal after this
year but it can't be done without go
ing through a more legal process than
present laws require, DR.. c. A. Harper,
state health officer, believes
Any one wishing to be married by
common law after Jan. /, 1918, must
first take out a marriage license, as
other persons must do, and must file
the marriage contract with the local
registrar of the town, village or city.
The favor with which the common
law contract has been held in many
quarters is due, in the opinion of Dr.
Harper, to the eugenic marriage law,
which requires a medical examination
of the prospective groom.
The law passed by the last Iegisla-
ture. effective next January, will mean
that all marriage contracts must be
recorded

u.rdbao Is Held by Its Weight.

A handbag that holds itself to its
wearers wrist by means of its own
weight has been invented by a New
York man. The leather handle is fitted
with two metal slides on one end OF
which is a roller. These slides are
fitted to the handle straps and are
connected by a short piece of leather
of the same width as the handle.
When the handle is slipped over
the arm the metal slides are pulled up
by the weight of the bag so that the
handle fits close around the wrist and
it is then impossible for the handle to
slide over the hand.

THREE DROWN SEEKING BODY
Chippewa Falls State Guard Members
Lose Lives in Lake Wisote-High
Waves OVerturn Boat.

Chippewa Falls-While searching for
the body Of Louis Kleinheinz, % years
old, who was drowned in Lake WisOta,
formed by the new large power dam,
three members of the Chippewa state
guard company were drowned. The
bodies had not been recovered
The victims are: Capt. A. E. Green
valid, SO years old; DR.. Albert Nussle,
Sc years old, and Thomas Tibbetts, As
years old They all leave families of
small children.
The three were in a rowboat to-
gether and We're last seen about $50
o'clock in the afternoon, headed for
the open lake. Their bodies are
thought to be in about fifty feet of
water. The boat, upturned, was found
floating near the shore early next
morning.
The accident is attributed to high
wind which drove the waves to a
height of four to eight feet.
The proposal to organize party to
search for the body of Louis Klein
heinz, which, it is believed, became en-
shared in the weeds on the lake bot
tom, was made by Capt. Greenwald.
The entire guard company turned out
to patrol the surface and drag for the
body. Several times parties bound for
the open lake were forced to turn
their little crafts back to shore be-
cause of the pounding waves.
Capt. Greenwald, commander of the
state guard here, was prominent shoe
merchant DR.. Nussle was a practic
ing physician, having recently decided
to enter the medical department of the
United States army. Tom Tibbets was
painter, employed for several years
at the state home here.

parliamentary crisis in Berlin. Pit
offerings here were quickly absorbed.
Opening prices, which ranged from
3-8c decline to 3-8c advance, Win
September at 154 1-2 to 1.55 Ia and
December at 1.16 to III, were fol-
lowed by a sharp upturn all around
to we'll above yesterdays finish.
Oats sympathized with the strength
of corn. AS a rule, traders seemed
to consider that the government crop
report had been sufficiently discount
ed in advance.
No independence was displayed by
wheat. The market moved upward
owine to the advance Of other s<ain,
but otherwise proved listless. A%ter
opening 1-2c higher at S2.03, July

reacted q little and then rose to 2.05
