LOVE, NOT LIQUOR,
 LED ID MARRIAGE
Peggy UdelI Denies She Lured
 Montgomery to Altar

Elkton, Md. June 7-Taking oi testimony here in the wedding annul- ment suit of John W. Montgomery of Philadelphia, was suspended after Peggy Udell, ziegfeld Follies chorus girl, had denied between sobs that | Montgomery was drunk when he mar ried her and that he was lured into the ceremony.
 Several witnesses were put on the stand by the defense in an effort to show that the trip 10 Elkton and the wedding were not the climax to a wild party" Then Mrs. Montgom- ery's attorneys asked that com mission be appointed to take testl- mony in New York and Philadelphia The request was granted and court was adjourned. Hearings will he re- sumed on June 1o
 Peggys first statement on the stand was that she fell in love with Jack at first sight She indicated that the sudden seizure was mutual as Jack, according to her statement proposed to her on the first night they met. That, she said, was Janu ary IS According to her testimony she was courted for thirteen days, Montgomery alleges that he met, courted and married her all in one night, and in an intoxicated condi- ton.
 Peggy testified that Montgomery not only proposed to her on the first night. but that on every other occa sion on which they were together, he
 
 in love with him and agreed to marry him, whereupon he remarked to her You are going to marry me before you leave this town
 The Follies, she continued, was booked for two more weeks in Phila- delphia, so finally she promised Mont gomery, who made" her do so by his unfortunate urgings, that she would marry him before the show left Philadelphia.
 The bride denied categorically that Montgomery or other members Of the party were drunk. She said that they had some ginger ale. but nothing else, and that all were perfectly sober"
 On cross-examination the witness deviated from her original testimony very little, if any. On several occa- sions during the trying ordeal on the witness stand, she broke down and had to be cheered up by her counsel. The Rev. Daniel Forbes Lockerbie, s2 years old, who is said to be a at Maryland's "Gretna said that the wedding party | was perfectly sober and that Peggy l and Jack seemed "a happy and low ing couple" as they stood before him.
 J. w. McAlister, deputy clerk of court, who was awakened at o'clock in the morning on Jan. 26 by the wedding party seeking license testl- fled that Montgomery was disheveled. McAlister refused to say that the bridegroom was staggering drunk

MUCH CL0TH|NG|S : COLLECTED IN CITY 7,0OO Pounds From New Britain
 Shipped to Near East

Four carloads of used clothing sal vaged from thousands of homes in the state, were shipped from Hartford today on the first leg of a journey to Armenia and adjacent territories, The clothing was gathered by various civic organizations in the different communities, under the auspices of the Near East Relief and will arrive abroad in time for distribution among 100000 orphans and thousands of destitute, homeless refugees who look to America for protection from the next winter.
 State Director E. H, McDonough, of the Near East Relief estimated roughly today that 52 tons of old clothing had been contributed in these eleven centers, with Waterbury, Danbury. New Haven and New Lon don yet to be heard from The wealthy city of Hartford led with 40 tons of clothing. contributed and the remaining 12 tons were made up of contributions from other centers as follows: Colchester. 295 pounds; Nor wich, $500 pounds; Canaan, LAP pounds: Mantle. 635 pounds; Daniel son, 2,747 pounds: Lakeville, 1,o00 pounds: New Britain, 1000 pounds; Meriden. $500 pounds; East Hamp- , ton, 200 pounds; Glastonbury, 1000 pounds.
 A similar clothing campaign last year netted about two and one half carloads of wearing apparel, approM- nately half of the total shipment es- , timated to be credited to Connecticut this year when all contributions have been received at central headquarters in Hartford.
 State Director McDonough was ra- diant upon noting the unusual sue ] cess of the campaign. The director asked the press to extend the grati- tude of the state committee to those who contributed and to the many or ganizations which directed the col :! lections in their respective localities.
 Boy Scouts volunteered for the ac- tual collection work in most of the communities and organizations of , older persons took charge of the as- embling and shipping of the clothing received.

RAILROAD STRIKE
 JULY 1 THREATENS
Ballots Are Sent Out Today and Men AHected by Slashes Will Vote
 For or Against

Chicago. June 7.-Strike ballots re- turnabe June 80 went out today to railway employees affected by wage re- auctions ordered by the United States Railroad Labor Board. The vote will be taken 'by individual unions whose 1.20n.oo0 members are affected or may be affected
 Paralysis of the nations railroads July 1, loomed as possibility as a result of the reductions which already have slashed s110.000,0O0 from the wages of the workers The wage cut is effective July 1
 Meanwhile the board is preparing to hear disputes this month between shop crafts employees and some of the railroads over alleged unauthorized reductions and piece work. B. M Jewell, head of the railway employees department of the American Fedora tion of labor who is leading the fight against the boards orders, was in- formed that the first of the hearings will be held tomorrow
 Twenty-one railroads were cited for illegal authorized wage reductions for the hearing.
 It was indicated today that no wage decision affecting telegraphers, the next class of railway labor to be taken up by the board, will come from the board for some time.
 The split in the labor board appar- ently has widened by the latest wage reduction. the s6o,000.000 slash in the wages of shop crafts employees. The minority reports by three labor repre- sentatives on the boards severely con- demning the majority which ordered the reductions, was still a topic of considerable discussion today, and provided ammunition for union men who attacked the order.

grew worse until the end, in spite of
careful nursing and the efforts of
physicians.
Mrs. Hoben was splendid lady,
a pioneer settler of the Gladwin Vi
cinity and her death is mourned by
many.
The funeral service was held Tues
day afternoon from the Gladwin
Church, conducted by Rev. w. E. Rus
ton, and burial was made in the
Uuion cemetery.
Elizabeth Buckner was born near
Martinsville, Indiana, August 5, 1889,
and died January Is, 1922, at the age
Of SO years, S months, and 10 days.
She was united in marriage to Henry
Hoben October Is, 1857. He preced-
ed her in death six years ago. Ten
children were born to this union, on
ly two Of them survive. They are
Mrs. Iva Orr, of Wood, South Dako-
ia, and William of Gladwin. She is
also survived by ten grandchildren
and three great grandchildren and
one brother, Henry Boyd, of this Vi
cinity. Also a host of other rela-
tives and friends. Grandma Hoben
was lady Of many good qualities /;
nothing seemed too hrd for her to do
as to the comforting of others and
she will be sadly missed in the home
where she was dearly loved as kind
and loving mother and grandmother.

oUOD ERAT DEMONsTRANDUN

Our friend Gerig, of the White
River News, had another spasm last
week and spilled the beans with re
gard to- little difficulty lie had a
few weeks go. He took serious eX-
ceptions to an item that appeared in
these columns of two weeks ago, IN
which we barely made mention that
there was little fstic encounter
staged at the county seat on the
Monday previous. He says that the
true date was Wednesday of that
week, the place his print shop, and
he was one of the principals. Aft
cr mentioning names and giving de-
tails, be proceeded to write up the
editor of this paper in his usual
style. Well, we didn' say he was
in fight, we didn t say that it took
place in his printing Office, only that
it occurred at the county seat. We
mentioned no names, but he jumped
at conclusions and says we meant
him.
Wen bet that if Gerg would go
to good reputable phrcnoIogist and
have his head examined he would
tell him that he had an abnormally
developed bump of combativeness
and woulG caution him to guard
against the further development of
this trait, Such an examination
might also reveal other abnormally
developed bumps.
AS to where we stand on questions
of morality, religion, politics or
most any other question of interest
TO the public, we do not believe that
very many persons are IN the darl
and if Gcrig docsn' t know, why We
are not going to tell him, but let him
ask those who know us best and have
known US for q number Of years
We have no apologies to make fol
our stand or views on politics, rclig
ion or morals. Although'wc do MOI
profess to subscribe to any particu
lar man made creed, but try to live
