At the time Of the Introduction OF

CIRCUIT COURT NOTES

There was a divorce case before the
court last week of unusual interest.
Simon Hinterholziner parted from
his wife in Bohemia in 1909 and al
legged three grounds in his complaint
for divorce. He set up desertion, of
over one year by the wife, cruel and
inhuman treatment and five years vol
untary separation. A touch of what
the newspapers call "human interest
was injected into the case when a let
ter from a young son in Bohemia was
read.
The court held that the only ground
of divorce established was the five
years voluntary separation and on that
ground the decree was granted. A
property settlement had been made un-
der the Bohemian laws. The court or
dered the plaintiff to pay Sl2 per
month to support his ten year old son
in Bohemia until the lad will be Is
years of age.
Several divorce cases from Sheboy-
gan occupied the court Friday and
Saturday.

BASKET BALL

There was a real basketball game at
the Orpheum last Saturday evening
which the KielSmeiers lost to the Car
dnal five of Neenah by a score of 80
to 80. At the end of the first five
minutes of play the score stood Neenah
10, Manitowoc 0, and it surely looked
like a stern chase all the way, but the
locals buckled to their work and had
the score tied early in the second half.
1t was tied half dozen times before
the end. A few minutes before the
close Manitowoc led 80 to %, 1t short
ly was 80 all with the end close by. II
was a tense moment for the fans and
just before the whistle Wall of the
visitors short difficult basket and the
game was over. The locals lined up,
center Herzog; forwards, Teteak and
Gresholdt; guards, Kunz and Ran
dolph. Next Saturday the Crystal Ter
race Garden five of Milwaukee which
recently beat the Two Rivers team on
"thcir own floor" will be here.

TAkGlE IN PAVING BID

The ManitOwoc Construction com
pany has notified the city that it will
not accept the contract for paving
which has been rendered to it under its
bid They say that they cannot safely
do so because they did not file bond
with their bid and that they might not
be able to collect after doing the work
1t was stated this week that because of
this stand the council may be com
PEELED to order readyertiscment for
bids. The bidders assert that they are
not trying to get out Of the contract
but that they actually deem themselves
insecure under the circumstances. To
a layman il would appear that the
bond provision is for the benefit of the
city only and that If II waived the re-
qurement the bidder could not reason
ably object to it having itself filed no
bond.
If the bidder viii propose the same
prices on a new advertisement the good
faith of the present objection could
not be questioned 1t is believed that
the work will not be delayed in any
event.

COUNTY EQUITY MEETS

The Manitowoc county branch of
the Society of Equity met in the court
house last week and it was soon evi-
dent that this county stands by Presi-
dent Tittemore in the factional fight in
the society. Mr.. Tittemore was in at
tendance as was the leader of the anti
forces j. Weller Long who for few
weeks lately was a resident of our
city. Mr.. Tittemore says in effect that
the opposition to him is from Non-par-
tisan leaguers who are "boring from
within" trying to make the Equity a
socialStic adjunct of TownSleyiSm.
The meeting appointed Olaf Lund-
berg, Edward Diebuck, Emil Vetting,
Me Trossen and f. c. lilly as com
mittee to represent the Equity at the
Soldiers Memorial meeting held this
week.
There were addresses of interest to
farmers.
Mr.. Tittemore gave talk on the
finances of the state organization
which he showed to be in a fourShing
condition. At Saturdays meeting Mr..
Tittemore declared himself as opposed
to third party movement. He advo-
Gated supporting candidates who are
right in both old parties and not to get
into a fruitless third party game. An
annual committee on resolutions was
appointed.
Alderman-deputy Clerk of Court
Thompson-on behalf of labor urged
the farmers to support the proposed
amendment for more pay for legislat-
ors, saying that farmers and city work
ers can now i'll afford to serve in the
legislature.

SOLDIERS MEMORIAL

In response to a call to all organiza-
tions of the county to send representa-
tives to a meeting to discuss plans for
a soldiers memorial the meeting was
held Monday at the courthoueS II. G.
Plumb presided and |. d. Wood was
secretary. There was lot of discus
sion which several times tended to wax
into acerbity. A few of the speakers
seemed to fear that the selection of the
form of memorial might not be made
by representative body. The sugges-
ton for a memorial were a community
hall, an armory, statue and chimes in
the courthouse dome.
There was some dissent to the pro-
position for an armory by few anti
militarists which was resented by 9th
ers. A motion was made by II. g.
Kress of the Association of Commerce
that the chair appoint committee of
seven to report at later meeting on
the form of memorial.
An amendment by Judge BaenSch to
have each political unit of the county
represented on the committee lost and
the motion for a committee of seven
carried. Those speaking at the meet
ing were Mr.. Kuttner, Walter Clark,
Rev. f. r. Keicher, r. w. Gray, Thos.
Sullivan, chairman of Franklin, Mrs.
r. II. Markham, Mrs. f. c. Smalley, L..
f. Wedertzz, August Last, Mrs, c. M.
Gleason, A. j. Rummele, A. l.. Hou-
gen, Judge Schmidt, and Mrs. Satz.
The following organizations of the
county were represented: County
Board, City of Two Rivers, Clio Club,
City Council OF Nani,owoc, q. A. r.,
St Elizabeth's Guild, Woman's Relief
Corps, North Side Ladies' Aid, City
Federation of Women's Clubs, Monday
Music Club, Ladies of the English
Methodist Episcopal church, South
Side Ladies' Aid, St Paul's Lutheran
Church Ladies' society, p. T.. o., the
American Society of Equity, Manito-
woe Association of Commerce, St.
James Guild, Fraternal Order of Ea-
giles, American Legion, Lutheran Mems
club, Rotary club, Boy Scouts, Child's
Welfare League, Red Cross, Royal Or
der of Moose and the Elks
While the movement has not pro-
gressed far a start has been made and
the public discussion hrs perhaps
clarified the atmosphere some and the
start may have momentum enough to
arrive at something definite before
long.

doubtful. A AhouJ sixty girls were en-
