For Joyce to Tell
Income i'm Court
Charges and Counter Charges
Fly Thick and Fast at Pre-
liminary 10 Poor Little
Rich Wife's" Divorce Case

CHICAGO, June s. Charges and
counter charges few thick and fast in
the Superior Court room oi Judge Sab
bath to-day when attorneys for J.
Stanley Joyce. multimilionaire lum-
herman, and Peggy Hopkins Joyce, his
poor little rich girl wife, presented
their sides of the pending divorce case.
the action to-day was a preliminary
hearing on Peggy's fight for 100000
solicitors fees and $4,000 a month
temporary alimeny.
Attorney Weymuth Kirkland, for
Peggy, sprang & surprise late in the
day when he asked and was granted
subpoena summoning Joyce to appear
In court in person for questioning re-
garding his income. Attorney Aus
trian, for Joyce, said that he would
oppose placing his client on the stand.
The courtroom was crowded as the
hearing started, many fashionably
gowned women being present. The
fans, however, were Somewhat disap-
pointed in that neither the fair Peggy
nor the defendant was in court
Attorney Kirkland painted word
picture of what he said Peggy had
suffered at the hands of Joyce. He
went back to the time when she was
earning $700 q week as chorus girl
in show playing in Chicago. He ex-
planned that with a maid, hotel and
travelling expenses she was really a
very poor girl on the $500 per, but
that she was ambitious and that she
believed she had bright stage career
before her.
He then told Of her meeting with
Joyce and how he had pursued her
from city to city, urging all of the
time that she marry him. This, the
attorney declared, his client refused to
do, because Joyce was always under
the influence of liquor and because at
that time she was still legally married
to Philbrick Hopkins. Under the in
sistent urging Of Joyce, however, and
her divorce from Hopkins and two days
later married Joyce, according to At
torney Kirkland.

Shop Lifting at
Narnpa Proves to
Be Improbable

Larry Maloney, chief of police Of
Nampa, arrested Miss Nellie Powell,
Mrs. Harrington and John F. Powell
all supposed to be of Mountain
Home, Sunday on charge of shop
lifting. The amount Of goods dis
covered was SO large that the charge
will probably be changed to grand
larceny, officers said.
The tip to look for the trio came
from Boise, after, Harry Runyon of
the White-Runyon Shoe company,
and s. E. Brookover of the Brook
over store had notified the Boise po-
lice to be on the lookout for the
three. They have already sworn out
a warrant for their arrest, but Of
ficers said that stuff found on the
persons of the suspects was identified
as coming from Nampa stores and
they will be held first for the Nampa
charges and then taken to Boise.
1t was apparent, Mr.. Runyon said,
that the three were novices, for their
work was crude. Mr.. Runyon tells
the following story: One Of the
women had already paid $40 down
on a coat at Brookover's and she
called at the store Saturday after
noon and asked to have it sent G. o.
D. $50, to her address at Mountain
Home. She then went to the mil
linery department and paid for a hat.
Here she asked the address of good
shoe store and was sent to the White
Runyon. At this store she asked to
have one pair of shoes taken from
the window that she might try them
on. She paid cash for another pair
and as the clerk was about to return
the first pair to the window she re-
marked he had better leave them, she
might decide to take both. When
she had gone the window pair of
shoes was found to be missing. Just
at this time the milliner from Brook
overs appeared in haste, asking for
her and said one of her best hats was
missing.
1t was then that the other stores
and the police were notified, but the
three had left town suddenly.
A number of articles of wearing
amounting to about $500
we're found on the three which have
not been identified as yet, and the
Boise sheriff office has announced
that it would appreciate it if any
who missed articles Fri
day or Saturday would describe them
and notify the Office.
One Of the women wore hand
some fur coat Saturday and it is
thought she hid the hat and Shoes
beneath it.-Idaho Statesman.

NEW AND GOOD ROADS BUILT
Needs Of Commercial Interests, Of
Tourists as Well as Farmer,
Have Been Considered.

Wonderful progress is being made
in constructing great network of
good roads throughout the country.
The needs of commercial interests, of
tourist, as well as the farmer, have
been consulted in designing this sys-
tenn. It has long been a reproach
that American roads were inferior to
those Of most European countries but
this condition Of affairs is now being
corrected. In 1915 the governments
appropriated $75,OO0,OO0 to be spent
in five installments, the last Of which
amounting to $25,0OO,OOO, was to be
released July l, 1919, and this has
since been increased by an additional
100000. Up to May l plans had
been approved for building 27,97O
miles Of road or nine times the dis
lance from New York to San Fran
cisco and Of this 1880 were actually
under construction. Boys Life.

TARIFF TO HAVE RIGHT OF WAY
Decision Reached by Senators to Set
tie This Problem First.


Washingtoh.-Mr. Fordney told Re
publican senator's on Saturday that
tariff revision would have clear right
of way in the house. The committee
bill for revision of the internal revenue
taxes will not be introduced, he said,
until both the emergency tariff and
the general revision bills have been
passed.
Representative FOrdney conferred
with Chairman Penrose of the senate
finance committee, and is understood
to have been urged to modify his
plans for procedure with the internal
tax legislation. AS near simultaneous
consideration of the tariff and tax
bills as possible is advocated by sew
eral influential Republican senators.
The general tax modification plan is
pretty well agreed upon by Republi-
cans Of the house committee, it was
said. Repeal of the excess profits
taxes and reduction of the higher in
come surtaXes is virtually certain, but
an agreement as to substitute taxes
was said not to have been reached
