SAYS POWELL REAL
NAME; BOND-J JUMPER
Charges Habitual Drunken
ness And Desertion On
Two Occasions

According to the answer of Emma
Miller, her husband, James B. Miller,
knew little about their marriage. AS
the first inaccuracy, she cites the fact
that they were married on Oct. 8,
1908, and not on the date claimed
by him. Again, she points out that
four, instead of three, children were
born to her by former marriage.
She says that he is the one who is
addicted to intoXicants. She calls
him an habitual drunkard and claims
that she washed to keep" him.
A good deal of the work and labor
of her first children went to support
plaintiff, she claims and adds that
she once caught plaintiff in the act
of beating two of her children, whom
he had undressed, until the blood was
running down their bodies.
She claims that plaintiffs real
name is Powell, not Miller, and that
she only learned of this after mar
riage, it being his desire to cover up
former "doings" unknown to her.
She says he is now indicted at
Charleston, w. Va, for brutally as
saulting some man and that, to avoid
prosecution, he jumped a $500 bond
and came to Ohio, this assault being
only one of his many acts of brutal
ity.
Her husband is not only drinking
man, she says, but also gambler and
for this reason, most of his money is
spent.
Two desertions of her by plaintiff
are cited. The first of these was on
April 2, 1915, when he remained away
six months and the second on May
20, 1916, he returning this latter time
only on being indicted for non-sup-
port of his minor child.
With the aid of her children, de-
fendant clans that she managed to
live during these periods.
In summing up the charges, she
enumerates gross neglect, extreme
cruelty and habitual drunkenness.
She asks for an order of temper
airy alimony during hearing Of the
suit for the support of herself and
baby and, on final hearing, alimony of
a reasonable character; custody of
the minor child and dismissal of pc
tition.

Auto Smash UP Is Caused
BY Carelessness
HOT WORDS PRODUCED
Strange Cars Collide On East Chest
nut Street, One Driver Stopping
To Turn On Lamp-Pienty
OF LIGHT

Disregarding the fact that the man
had stopped and placed his hand out
at the side of his car, man driving
a large car, in attempting to pass the
car ahead, did not swing to the left
enough Wednesday evening about
O'Clock on East Chestnut street and
smashed into the machine in front
of him. No one was hurt and the
machines were damaged little, bent
tenders being the extent of the injury
to the cars. The identity of the two
drivers is unknown.
In passing over the slight raise
where a walk crosses East Chestnut
street from the rear of the court
house to the Third ward school build
ing, the driver of the car that was
run into by the larger car Jared out
the light in his rear lamp He stop
ped almost Immediately, but not be-
fore he had pulled to the right and
held his hand out the side of the
car, according to witnesses OF the
accident
II is said that the man behind had
good headlights and there was no
reason why he could not see the man
ahead of him. The cluster lights at
the rear of the court house also fur
nished a good deal of light.
After the collision, witnesses said
that hot and angry words were
thrown at each other by the men and
the man whose car was struck threat
ened the other with arrest. Howev-
er. the police docket showed nothing
to that effect and the chief said that
no affidavit had been filed against
anyone for reckless driving,

SPY STORY THOUGHT GOSSIP

ST. Francisville, H., May Tin
vestigation of the report that Mrs
Katrina Couch, wife of Rev. James
Couch of Wanette, Okla, had been
shot as a spy in Germany indicated
that the story was gossip.
The story, as told here by friends
of the family was supposed to have
come from relative of Mr.. Couch at
West Salem, H., and this relative
was supposed TO have received the
information from the minister, The
fact that the latter knew nothing of
the story, when questioned at PauI's
Valley, Okla, is considered here as
evidence that the report was based
on a misunderstanding.

ELLA KUNKLE SEEKS
MONEY FOR WHEAT
Suit Brought To Quiet Title
And One In Partition;
Court News

The report of the findings of the
state examiners, q. j. OFT and e. G..
Galleher, who spent most of last
summer and fall in the court house
here, has been issued and copies are
in the hands of the various county
officials.
The report is voluminous affair
and covers 219 typewriter pages of
paper. There is thoroughness about
the work that leaps forth as the first
impression received upon examining
it. Every phase of county activity is
covered, including the construction
of the Children's Home. Various Of
ficials are commended for their effic-
iency in the report as well as their
courtesies to the examiners.
A recapitulation of the findings,
some of which date back over a two
year period, shows that there is
total of only $919.39 due the coun-
ty. The exact amount due the coun-
" Is t,GfI'J1,
due from the county. Under the
heading. "Unaccounted for" there is
$32252, making the balance of $919.39
due the county.
The examiners find that there is
due the state from the county the
small amount of $6.25, to Offset which
1..z l. iIS
state.
In view of the vast amount of mon
ey handled during the period covered
by the report and the multitudinous
sources from which it came and to
which it should go, the report re-
fleets much credit upon the work OF
the present corps of Knox county Of
ficials.
