work of the Omaha Metropolitan

This brought about endless buck

The triumvirate city government

provement and street department.,
another who would be held respon-
sible for public and police depart
ment and third responsible for the

ing-State Plans
To Appeal.

Greeley, Neb.. Oct. l4-(Special.)
Judge Bayard H. Paine, trial judge
i'll the cases of Alison B. Cole and
allen Vincent Grammer, declared
here today that in his opinion there
can be no new trial for Alison B.
Cole as the result of the recent de-
cision granting habeas corpus to
Cole and renanding Cole to- the
Howard county authorities.
The sentence given Cole in How
ard county was in full accord with
the statutes of the state of Nebraska
and was SO upheld by the supreme
court OF Nebraska" said Judge
Paine.
The statutes of Nebraska provide
that when a prisoner pleads guilty
to murder a hearing shall be held
and the jury shall determine the de-
gree of guilt. This was done in
Coles case.
"It appears to me that the next
step in the case probably will be an
appeal by Attorney Central Clar-
ence Davis, for the state, from the
decision of Judge Woodrough. The
appeal would be to the United States
supreme court. There can be no
new trial as | see it.

Harriet Divorced and Re.
married Decides She Is
Through With Jefferson.

Harriet and Jefferson Harsh are
''in again" Mrs. Harsh filed suit in
district court yesterday for divorce
from Jefferson.
They and their daughter, Helen
H. Zepp, have alternated in divorce
actions in district court for the last
year. They have been before the
divorce court a dozen times.
Mrs. Harsh and her husband were
married some years ago, divorced
and remarked in July, 1916. Mrs.
Harsh sued for separate rrainten-
ance in May, 1919. Her husband an
swered and cross-petitioned and filed
various other actions and, finally,
February S, 1920, after exhaustive
hearings, she obtained a decree OF
separate maintenance and $35 a
month with custody of small child.
She says Jefferson hasn't been pay
ing, so she wants complete oi-
vorce.
Daughter Helen started divorce
proceedings September II, 1919. Her
husband answered a month later,
Helen obtained b restraining order
a week after that, Clarence filed a
cross-petition December 4. Helen
obtained custody of the child and
$40 month temporary alimony Jam
uary 81. Clarence came back with
various other actions and finally a
motion to modify the decree so as
to give him custody of the child.
Helen secured a divorce and $50 a
month alimony last June, and in .Au-
gust Clarence filed a motion to have
the decree modified giving him GUS
tody OF the child. This latter action
still is pending.
So, parents and children still are
warning in the courts with the end
not in sight.
