UNDER $4,000 Bond
ON W|FE'S CHARGES.
SEQUEL TO SENSATIONAL s.
900 DAMAGE SUIT IN CIRCUIT
COURT Is PARTIALLY THRESH.
ED OUT IN COURT OF JUSTICE
OF THE PEACE.

Under 81, 600 bonds to guarantee his
keeping the peace until a hearing Is
held before Judge George koenig ON
four charges instituted against him
by Iva l.. Mahill the woman he mar
ried shortly after her divorce, John
s. Keller, Mendoza and larlville
stockman, will be brought to trial
next Wednesday before justice of the
peace George Koenig.
Four warrants covering wide
field of allegations We're issued
against Mr.. Keller on complaint of
the wife" One of them alleges as
saut with deadly weapon one de-
mands that he be made to keep the
peace the third accuses him of plain
assault and battery, while the fourth
and last complains that the defendant
threatened to kill the woman.
A preliminary hearing was held
yesterday afternoon with l.. o.
Browne and A. Il. Buffers counsel
for Miss Mahill in $4,000 damage
suit filed Monday in the circuit court
against Keller, prosecuting the wom-
ans charges. The evidence and ar
guments pro and con We're taken
down in shorthand and will be trans
cribed and everything for future use
against Keller in event of appeals to
law and equity by the defendant.
The states attorney, ordinarily the
prosecutor in such matters. was not
interviewed in regard to the charges,
nor was he asked to take part in
forcing the complaints against Kel
Ter. The four state warrants were
issued by Justice of the Peace koe-
mig at the instigation of the wife.
thing, under the law, he has a per-
feet right to do. The law also pro-
vides for anyone appearing in JUS
tice court to prosecute state war
rants.
The affairs of the Kellers attracted
more than passing notice when Mrs
Keller, under the name of Iva Mahill,
demanded in an assumpsit suit in
the cicuit court $4,000 damages from
Keller, whom, she claims, she wed at
Crown Point, Ind, shortly after her
divorce on June Is, 1921, at Dixon
from David Ratcliff of Decatur.
In the evidence presented yester-
day Miss Mahill, it was presented, OBJ
tanned a divorce at keller's instiga-
ton, he paying for the decree and
promising to marry her in some other
state than Illinois. Keller was not
called to the stand to testify by his
attorney w. |. Hibbs, only the one
side presenting its case.
When an attempt was made to
get into the records matters pertain
ing to the divorce and promises to
marry on Keller's part, Justice of the
Peace Koenig ruled this ,evidence
out, but Browne insisted that they
be gotten in to the records. The
Justice informed the lawyer he was
as good listener as he (Browne)
was" and permitted the attorney to
proceed along the lines he had start
ed, without letting any of the other
issues guide him in his appraisal of
the facts as they pertained to the
warrants against Keller.
After dragging out for considerable
time it was decided to postpone fur
Their hearings until next Wednesday,

The Little Shepherd of Kingdom
Come, which plays at the Tabb Thea
ire December Is, brings home to Ken
tuckians many of their age-old tradi-
lions. Taken from the famous novel
sf the same name by our own John
Fox, Jr., and with the settings in the
mountains of Kentucky, the actors
depict the feuds and other character
istics of the mountain life with true
mountaineer dialect and uaturalness.
II is the story of Kentucky in a set
tlement known as Kingdom Come"
The little shepherd, who chances into
the township. knows little of his ear
ly life. He has just wandered rom
door to door in early childhood, seek
ing shelter from kindly mountaineers,
who gladly fathered the youth about
whom there is tinge of mystery.
The mystery is solved and he leaves
his mountain home to go to the Blue
Grass for education, but when the
Gall 10 HBnt TOT MS early IrleuuS
comes, with the true mountain fidel
ity. he forgets his later associations
and offers his life and his never miss
ing rife in their defense.
Lester Howard, as Squire Middle
tsn." takes his part in a particularly
able manner. A typical backwoods
aagistrate, whose idea of law and JUS
ice is somewhat confused. the squire
lends an air of levity to the play with
eat which it would be a failure.
Big Joel Turner. taking the part Of
q typical mountaineer, also lends a
great deal to the play as he spins his
revolver around on one. finger and
says, Il take the lie, from no man."
