Error Made in Report of
Thorne Divorce Action
Wife Is Sent to Bellevue for OBJ
servation and Not as an
Alcoholic Patient

In The Tribune of September % last
it was enormously stated in the story
of the action of Justice Burr in grant
ing a divorce to Joel Wolfe Thorne
that Thorne's wife, Mrs. Mary Casey
Thorne, had been "sent to Bellevue
Hospital charged with alcoholism"
The fact is that Mrs Thorne in 1918
through the Supreme Court success
fully prosecuted an action demanding
her release from the psychopathic ward
of Bellevue Hospital, where she was
sent for observation as to sanity, as
the result. she charged, of plot. At
no time was Mrs. Thorne charged with
alcoholism.
Mrs. Thorne in calling The Tribune's
attention to the error yesterday asked
that it be made plain also that she had
never been known as sthe belle of
Third Avenue" She said she was proud
to have been born of parents who,
while they did live on Third Avenue,
succeeded in sending her through
Barnard College, where she received
the degree Of NJ A., but her devotion
to her studies had eliminated any
chance of social activities on Third
Avenue or Fifth Avenue.
The Thornes were married in 1911
and their domestic troubles have fig
ured considerably in court news. On
September q Justice Burr confirmed

Roosevelt Division
In War Was Ready.
Gen. Harbord SAYS
Colonel Planned for 2 Years.
Had Force Enrolled and
Hoped to Rally the West,
When Denied Opportunity

BOSTON, Oct. 27.-The plan Of Theo-
dore Roosevelt to raise a division of
volunteers for service overseas in 1917
WAS recalled tonight, with collateral
details, in an address by Major General
James G. Harbord, acting Chief Of staff
of the United States Army. General
Harbord, who delivered the principal
address at the annual Roosevelt Day
dinner of the Middlesex Club, was to
have commanded one brigade of the
division had it been formed.
Reviewing the development of the
idea OF volunteer division, the speaker
said his personal acquaintance with
Colonel Roosevelt "began in 1915, soon
after the sinking of the Lusitania, when
he foresaw that America would evcntu-
ally be drawn into the war and began
his plans for division which he houed
TO be allowed to command when war
should come.
Tor two years he carried on his
plans" the speaker went on, "enrolling
men, studying military matters and ar
ranging to stsrt the organization at the
moment after war was declared. In
March, 1917, he had completed, through
agencies which l was able to control
for him from the Army War College.
where l was 8 student complete reuui-
sltions, ready to be signed, for every
thing his division would need to take
the field. He hoped to be authorized to
raise the division at Fort Sill, Okla. n
region where he could rally around him
the hardy Western types which won
tame twenty years before as the Rough
Riders. The lamented Augustus P.
Gardner was to have been a brigade
adiutant in the organization.
"1he resolution which passed Con-
gTess after We declared war enabling
the President to raise 100000 volun-
teers. though for obvious reasons in
troduced by some one else, was die
tated by Mr.. Gardner in my room at
the War College,, and l wrote it out on
the typewriter for him. How Colonel
Roosevelt was denied the opportunity
of raising the volunteers Congress had
authorized is we'll known to you. How
wise or how wicked it was we cannot
judge.
THAT the selective draft was an in
fnitely better way to raise soldiers
cannot be doubted. That the name and
prestige of Colonel Roosevelt and his
infectious enthusiasm would have
meant the equivalent of thousands of
men to the Allied cause is equally GER
tain"

Eleuen Dogs Haze Day in Court
As Woman Tries to Rec0uer Pet
Janitor Accused of Luring Pomeranian From Home
Appears With Nondescript Collection of Canine
Derects; Harassed Judge Refuses Decision

Essex Market court resounded with
canine barks, shrill feminine shrieks
OF delight and strident masculine ex-
postulatlons yesterday when Henry
Maxim, janitor of an apartment house
at lo9 Goerck Street, appeared before
tne bar with eleven dogs in duplicate
leash, on summons Of Tillie Gold, liv-
ing IN an apartment at the same ad-
dress. She charged that Maxim had
appropriated her Pomeranian, which
she valued at $50. The dogs included
haif-breed Pom with a bushy tail,
a one-eared fox terrier and other nom
descripts
When Makin's case was called all
the dogs were barking at once, and
Magistrate Mcclellan had tc shout in
order to be heard Maxim tried to ex-
plain that the Pomeranian strain in
the bushy-tailed dog was sheer acci-
dent of birth and that the dogs father
was an American Ranger. He said the
complaint was defective in that it de-
scribed the dog he was alleged to have
purioined as a Pomeranian. All his
dogs were in court, he said, and there
was not a Pom in the lot.
what is the value OF these dogs ?"
inquired Magistrate Mcclellan. 'I
mean per dog" he added.
Maxim surveyed the aggregation
thoughtfully for a moment and replied
that he didn't believe any actual value
could be set on the animals. From a mar
ket point of view he thought they were
total loss. He said the dogs were
New York strays and he kept them
because he was a dog lover
"This woman" the defendant
shouted, "can have any one of the dogs
she likes, but" he added, "they amt
none of EN- hers"
"Pick a $50 dog and let's close the
incident" ordered the magistrate,
while ali the dogs barked at once and
the courtroom crowd chortled glee-
fully. Miss Gold hesitated.
An argument ensued as to the value
of the dogs in Makin's collection.

TUbERCULAR VETS
 NEED BETTER CARE
tBy the Associated Press)

New York, June 17.-Conditions in the government hospitals for the care of tuberculous soldiers, sailors mar ines and nurses were both commended and criticised in today's session of the annual meeting of the National Tub erculosis Association here. The con- ments both favorable and otherwise were made in a report presented by two of the five physicians selected by the surgeon general of the United States public health service to visit and inspect the hospitals for tubercu- lous service men.
 It is drawn up by Dr. George T. Palmer, of Springfield, H., and Dr. Henry w. Hoagland of La Jolla, Cal The physicians reported that they were surprised to find that the insti- tutions were so efficiently conducted in the face of difficulties and obstacles that had to be overcome. They com mended the attitude of the surgeon general in seeking to improve the ser vice and readiness to act upon con structive criticism.
 The chief criticisms of the govern ment hospitals made by the two phy- sicians were: Shortage of medical per sonnel, especially trained in the diag- nosis and treatment of tuberculosis Shortage of specially trained nurses and the lowering of the morale through the social relationship ot nurses and other female employees with patients. Lack of discipline in- dicated in the prevalence of gambling, the use of tobacco, the abuse of leaves and furloughs and the participation of patients in harm full diversions and amusements. The assignment of the more competent members of the medi- cal staff to wards for terminal and advanced patients with less efficient medical service in the wards occupied by the doubtful cases and by patents awaiting discharge.

FIRST ROCK BASE
 PLACED FOR ROAD
REQUEST TRAFFIC AWAY
Foundation Laid on Palarm Road and Traffic Asked to Take
 Other Streets.

Receiving their delayed shipment of crushed rock, contractors have started work on the base for the Con way and PaIarm highway, and a block in front of the Conway Compress Company has been laid out. Today the first base of No. l crushed rock is being rolled and then the screening will be applied. The stretch illus trates the type of road construction being followed in this and the other two districts.
 Despite the efforts of the road men to keep traffic off the stretches under construction, numerous drivers have attempted and in some cases, have driven their teams over them and considerable annoyance and some de- lay is being experienced. "We want to build Faulkner county absolutely the best roads possible" one of the supervisors said today, "but we can't do it if your people insist upon driv- ing over the road before it is com pleted. In every case, traffic can find other streets to travel, and we will make every effort to keep the roads open to traffic wherever possible, but of necessity some parts must be closed at times"
 Bars across both the Vilonia and Palarm roads have been placed wher- ever traffic would ruin the work be- ing done, and the public is asked to pay due regard to the signs posted. Rock base is being placed on both roads, and wagon over part of 1t at the wrong time would undo all the work done and delay final completion.
 The process by which the Palarm road is being laid is started first with a layer of No. crushed rock. This is rolled down by 12-ton roller and then the fine screening scattered to fill all crevices. The base is then sprinkled with water and allowed to set before giving second rolling. At this point of the process, the base is welded together as firmly as a mass of concrete Then comes the second base of two and one-half inches of No. rock, finer than Mo- and mak- ing a compact foundation. This is given a good rolling and the first layer of asphalt applied. On top of the asphalt comes "chips" and then the final coat of asphalt. From the ground up to the top, the entire bed will be over eight inches in depth.
 Some difficulty is also being met in obtaining labor The rate of pay is s1.75 for beginners and s2 per day to hands after they have made good. More labor is needed on the Palarm road.
 Several quarries have been opened up along the routes of both the Pa larm and Vilonia roads and faiI grade of stone obtained. Rock crush CTS are putting the output into shape for road construction.
