NEDEAU TRIAL BEGINS
RossyiIIe Girl Appeals From Ruling of
Probate Court.


Old and young, business men and
housewives, some present as witnesses
and others as curiosity seekers. came
from Rossville today to attend the
trial of Miss Liberty Nedeau. 17-year-
cd Rossville girl, charged with carry
ing concealed weapons and frequent
ing immoral places"
Miss Nedeau's appeal from the rul-
ing of the probate court sentencing
her to Beloit was the first case to be
taken up when Judge James Mcclure
in the district court opened the GRIM
inal docket of the January term. The
state moved to dismiss the appeal on
the grounds that the judgment of
Judge j. D. NJ. Hamilton in the pro-
bate court was final and that the
statutes provided no method of appeal.
While admitting the latter part of the
argument, Judge Mcclure held that
under the constitution of the state any
person convicted of a crime has a
right to appeal. A jury was then EN-
paneled and sworn and the trial be-
gun. About twenty-five witnesses had
been summoned.
Miss Nedeau was arrested several
weeks ago. Her chum. Miss Opal
Iambotte, II, also was arrested on a
warrant charging her with assaulting
Miss Birgil Bixby, another Rossville
girl, during an argument in Rossville
on Armistice day. Miss Lambotte was
also found guilty by Judge Hamilton,
and is now under sentence to Beloit
j 1t is thought probable that if Miss
! Nedeau is successful in her trial, Miss
Ian bottle also will appeal.

HARDING CONSIDERS SUBSIDY
Plans for Aiding U. S. Ships Presented
to the President.

Washington, Jan. 24-Proposals
for government aid in American ship
ping as worked out by the shipping
board were presented to President
Harding today.
The plan was understood to propose
aid thru payment to American ship
operators of a certain percentage of
the customs receipts from goods i'm
ported by them, thru provisions for
membership of crews of American YES
sells in the naval reserve force with
resulting additional pay, and thru pro-
visions that a certain proportion of
immigrants coming to the United
States should come on American ships
The plan which is expected to form
the basis of a presidential message to
congress next month would put a limit
by law on the profits of American
operators
Following the conference at the
White House, Lasker declined to re-
veal the details of the subsidy plan
approved by the shipping board,
pointing out that it was the desire of
the president to withhold discussion
of the proposed extension of govern
ment aid to shipping until the mat
ter had been formally laid before con-
greSs.

CUFF LINKS CAUSE DIVORCE
Mrs. Lillian Ruth TetherOw Says
Their First Quarrel Was Result
OF Her Husbands Search for
Pair of Cuff Buttons.

Men alweys did claim that the gink
who invented cuff buttons was more
of a curse to the world than Nero.
But it remained for Mrs. Lillian Ruth
Tetherow, Topeka beauty culturist, to
show that a pair of the elusive links
was indirectly responsible for the di-
vorce suit she brought against her
husband, Carl Tetherow, an employe
of the Southwestern Bell Telephone
company.
In Judge George Whitcomb's court
today Mrs. Tetherow testified that the
disappearance of his cuff links caused
her husband to explode with anger.
Result: You did."-"I didn't"-law-
yers-divorce court.
They were living at 322 West Sew
enth street, Mrs. Tetherow said
Hubby was going out that night and
his mother-in-law ironed a shirt for
him. He entered the bedroom to put
it on, so the testimony went, and when
he emerged a few minutes later the
sky was positively dark. He wanted to
know where his cuff buttons were.
His mother-in-law told him they were
not in the shirt when she ironed it,
according to the testimony, and then
followed, it was said, a few moments
of storm in which he is alleged to
have called her sundry names.
THAT settles it," Mrs. Tetherow said
she told him. I've stood for your
insults as long as I'm going to. Now
L m going to call the police
When she took down the receiver,
she said. Tetherow leaped toward her,
set her violently down in a chair and
struck her on the mouth with his fist.
That just about ended the quarrel,
likewise their matrimonial venture.
But previous to that time he had
accused her of going with other men,
and she had charged him with keep
ing company with other women. And
once. she said, he had choked her
when they were living in st. Joseph.
But even at that, they might have
yielded a trifle to each other and
kissed and made up if it hadn't been
for that bird who invented cuff links.
He spilled the beans
