Nurse Must Pay $4,000
For Theft of Mans Love
Former ''Happiest Wife in the
World" Wins Suit for Aliena-
ton of Affection

Mrs. Adele G. Seamans, who said
that as the wife OF Merritt Garland
Seamans, -four broker, she was. at
one time the "happiest wife in the
world" and that he was the "best hus-
band" received a $4,000 verdict from
a jury in Sheriff Khott's court yester-
day in a suit against Miss Willie Maude
Ballenger, a trained nurse, for the
alienation Of Mr.. Seamans affections.
c. Andrade, attorney for Mrs Sea-
mans, asked the jury to give $4,000
to his client.
Mrs. Seamans, who owned her own
home and had three automobiles when
she lived with her husband in Atlanta
Ga, is now working to support herself
and her twelve year-old daughter. She
was married in 1906.
Her domestic life was a happy one,
said Mrs. Seamans, until Miss Da,lon-
ger appeared as nurse to her. A friend
ship developed between Mrs. Seamans
and Miss Ballenger. But the friend
snip OF the nurse was stronger for Mr.
Seamans. They used to 60 motoring
in one Of the wife's cars. Finally, the
husband left home
Scamans and his wife later became
reconcled. Still later, however, Sea-
mans again quit his family and never
has returned. Miss Bellenger did not
defend the suit. A few years ago she
was the legatec of 100000 hequest
in the will of Georgia judge.

Roads Face
Giant Tasks
Upon Return
Continued from paxe I


! spoken of it loudly and often. and the
railroad administration, while it has
made some explanations and a few de-
n'ais of specific charges, has in general
admitted the situation. There has
been impudence from agents and train
men, there has been much inefficient
work. Railroad men say that discipline
has gone to pieces.
out all these things have happened,
as we'll, to corporations which were
under private operation. New York
1ity's telephone service illustrates this.
me railroad administration does not
believe that, considering the general
unrest and the growing feeling of pow
er among the workers, the private own
ers can do better.
AS for the freight service Of the
roads, there is shortage of than
$4,000 cars to-day and the railroads
Will be unable to buy more. The trains
and rails are overloaded with unusually
heavy traffic. Here, too, nothing can
De hcped tor except, as with the pas
senger service, through Improvement
IN discipline and efficiency.
There will be one change that ship
ers will notice promptly at o'clock
on Monday morning, March g. The
freight solicitor will be back on the
solicitation Of traffic by particular
roads, on the ground that it was al
ways accompanied by special favors
OF one kind or another and that With
competition destroyed, it was useless.
Freight Competition to Be Keen
Ono thing that the return Of the
roads does restore is competition on
traffc, and the solicitors will ba hunt
ing freight with perhaps a little more
man their old kecnness. There have
been many changes in traffic under
the government: freight has been di-
verted from some roads and given
TO others, certain lines have been
lled up with low paying freight like
ore ana coal, short routes nave been
insisted upon-all in the interests of
the public service, but 70 the detriment
OF certain roads. These roads want
the!r traffic back; must have Is if
they are tc avoid disaster. The roads
that got it, also want it.
For these reasons, both in freight
and passenger traffic, it is certain that
the railroads will do all that is
hIumanly possible to give service of
the KIND that Will win and hold bust
ness. The so-called guarantee will
be of no value to the road that does
not get traffic, end plenty of it. TIE
only way that each railroad can pos
sibly work itself out of the mess in
which ell the roads find themselves to
a greater or less degree will be by
getting its traffic on growing basis
Otherwise all the safeguards and aids
which the transportation act provides
will help very little. Wherefore the
one big change that can be expected
at once will be the development OF
energetic competition in giving the
best service that conditions permit,
aAd chen securing the business that
that service deserves.

larger aspects OF the problems schich
