HUSBAND SAYS HIS WIFE
"NACGED," DIVORCE PLEA

Alleging that his wife kept up a
course of ''nagging and fault-find-
Ing" to such an extent that he
went out, resigned his position,
and left with the intention of try.
ing to obtain something that might
satisfy his wife," Harry A. Sullivan,
formerly employed in the Bureau
of Printing and Engraving, has
filed his answer to the suit of his
wife, Annie M. Sullivan. for a
limited divorce.
Sullivan, represented by Attorney
Anton Heitmueller, claims that at
times his wife becomes "obsesseo
with moods offault-finding and con
slant nagging about money mat.
ters and about his family" She
keeps UP the quarrelling far into
the night, says the husband, re.
fusing to- permit him to get any
sleep to such an extent that he
had to absent himself from their
home until such a time as she
might recover from. her nagging
mods.
Sullivan tells the court that his
wife was never satisfied with the
money he earned and always found
fault about 1t. She even refused
to permit him to live at their home
and ordered him out on one oc'
casion until he might obtain job
that suited her. He denies deser
ton. Sullivan asks the court to
dismiss his wife's complaint and
to prevent her from denying him
the use and occupancy Of his home
at 705 Florida avenue northeast
and to permit him to visit and SEE
| his children.

BEREFT OF DAUGHTERS
ACCUSED WOMAN DIES

BALTIMORE e. Sept. 12.-The
name of Mrs. Anna Nelson was
called in Criminal Court, but no
Mrs. Anna Nelson ;.nswereds The
clerk also wrote ''abated. by death"
across four Indictment papers and
four, charges of snop-lifting will go
unanswered. Mrs. Nelson was dead
at Franklin Square Hospital. Gas
was the method she had used to
gain release.
I Neighbors say the woman brooded
over the fact that her two young
daughters, Dorothy and Helen, had
been taken from her and committed
to an institution two months ago
after she had been arrested on the
shop-lifting charges. When az.
raigned in Central Police Court it
was testified she had taught Helen,
ten years old, to steal from de-
partment stores. Mrs. Nelson was
held in 5000 bail for the grand
jury.
Even in death her mother love
was evident. She left note
TO the effect that the proceeds from
a house. she. formerly occupied be
given to her daughter, Dorothy.
Just before Mrs. Nelson died, the
house was sold at public auction
to pay debts of the mother.

PRINCE GOES TO
/. BED EARLY FOR
A CHANGE
Did Not Attend at Firpo-WiIIs
Bout-Picks Up Lost
Sleep
BY ROLAND KREBS,
international News Service.

SYOSSET, N. Y, Sept. 12.-Despite
announcements made in New York
that Edward Albert. Prince Of
Wales, was a ringsides spectator at
last nights fight between Harry
Wills and Luis Angel Firpo, Cap,
tain A. F. Lascelles, his secretary,
told newspaper men today that the
prince was not at the fight.
1.-THE prince spent quiet after
noon" Captain Lascelles said, "dined
privately, and in the evening made
few calls on Long Island. He
was not in Manhattan and he was
not in Jersey City"
In Bed by 10 p. M.
Confirmation Of the fact that for
once at least the prince actually did
spend a quiet evening catching up
on lost sleep came when newspaper
men called the James A. Burden
estate last night at 10 o'clock and
were answered by a butler. reused
from his slumbers, who said HI. r.
H. was asleep at that hour.
Long Islanders are amazed at the
pep" of the prince and his ability
to keep up a strenuous round of
engagements at dancing parties,
polo and social functions in his
honor, but the prince shows no Ill
effects and appears to be vibrant
with health and the joy of living.
Although no definite time has
been fixed for Wales departure for
his ranch in Canada because Of the
postponement Of the polo matches
he came to America to see, 1t was
said today, that he has made tenta-
tive plans to leave here either
Wednesday or Thursday.

Knut walked the whole length.

where his father was directing

"Hello, daddy" cried Knut.
The father was too flabber-

his son and then flushed with
pride,

BORDER ROW IN
IRELAND NOT
SERIOUS
British. Force Probably Will
Move Obstetrics Out Of
Free State
BY DANIEL O'CONNELI.,
international News Service.

DUBLIN, Sept. 49, In the English
newspapers nowadays there is a
good deal of talk about the border
question between the. Irish Free
State and Ulster. When Michael
Collins and Arthur Griffith signed
the Anglo-Irish treaty in December,
1871, there was clause in. it known
as Article 49," in which it was
stipulated that commission should
be set up that would decide Which
parts of Ulster were Nationalist
In outlook and feeling and should be
included in the Free State. Now
the English Conservative Party is
again backing Ulster in her opposi-
ton to the claims of National Ire
land. Ramsay Macdonald, the Eng
lish premier, states that he will
honor the treaty to the letter ami
will introduce into Parliament a
bill to give effect to Article -. of
the treaty. OF course, everybody
expects that Ulster will oppose the
treaty and have real old row with
the Free State army But nothing
of the kind will happen. 1t is not
the intention Of the Free State
authorities to get mixed up in any
such battle. President, CosgraVe said
the Other day in an interview thar,
as soon as the bill is passed through
the House of Commons and becomes
an act of Parliament, the British
army which is stationed along the
Ulster border will be asked to move
the Ulster forces back from the po-.
lions assigned to the Free State.
IF there is to be any fighting
at ALL" he added, ut will be be.
tween the Obstetrics and the British
army, but we expect that Britain
will honor her bond.' r.
1t will be interesting to watch
events in case the British House Of
Commons fails to pass the boundary
clause bill. In all probability the
oath to King George in the constitu.
ton and one or two other objection
BILE points (from an Irish viewpoint
will be scrapped.

fruit or vegetable which will grow in
this climate was represented in this
display.
The second prize was won by Garnet
Mesa which also had very pretty dis
play, though not so extensive as that
of Orchard City. Yellow and white
streamers of crepe paper decorated
their display and the name was writ
ten with red and yellow corn which
was very effective. They had a nice
lot of canned goods and cakes, pies,
bread, etc. F. l.. Martin won sweep
stakes and first prize in open com
petition on his rural New York pota-
toes.
California Mesa had the other COM
munity exhibit and won third prize
Their display was not so artistic as
the others, nor so extensive, which
doubtless helped decide against them.
The entries made showed the fertility
and the productivity of the com
munity, however, and were very good
specimens.
One of the most interesting displays
in the fair was the section devoted to
the club work. Sewing by the Busy
Bee Girls club of Garnet Mesa, and
canned goods by the Orchard City
girls were on display, and the work
was excellent. The girls sewing show
ed real training and skill, every garm-
ent being beautifully and carefully
made. The canned stuffs rivalled the
products of the older women at the
fair and many compliments were given
the girls for their excellent work. So
much is heard now about the lack of
ability and training women have for
home mekeeping that it is encouraging to
| find that the girls are even more in
terested in learning how to keep house
successfully than they used to be and
that they are able to do things with a
skill and efficiency which is remark
able.

display of canned fruits, jellies, jams

1924 DELTA COUNTY
FAIR JOINS HISTORY

Despite the rain the first two days
of the annual Delta county fair held
last week at Hotchkiss, it was sue
cess in every way. The fair was held
over Saturday instead of ending Fri
day night, and gave every one an op-
portunity to enjoy it in fair weather.
Friday was Delta day and is said to
have been the largest Delta day ever
held at the fair, the crowd being esti-
mated both ways from 5000. 1t is
certain that an immense crowd was
present and helped the fair go over
the top. Delta was practically desert
ed, most of the stores being closed and
nearly everyone going up to Hotch-
kiss.
The racing programs of the after.
moons were much enjoyed by every,
one and some of the novel contests
provoked a great deal of fun. Black
burns band was present and played
to the great satisfaction of the audi
ence. Many comments were heard
concerning this organization and Delta
should be proud Of such a fine boys
band. A short time during the after
noon program Friday was given ovel
to military maneuvers as a part of the
observance of National Defense day
Co. C. and members of the Legion il
uniform took part in this and it was
concluded by a parade in which a mum
Der OF citizens took part, wearing
badges saying 81 have volunteered fol
one days service in the Army of the
United States" These were worn BY
many others as well.
While the exhibits were not as ex
tensive this year as they usually are
some very good ones were on display
The culinary exhibits were enough tc
tempt the palates of anyone and some
splendid examples of the skill .of Del
ia county women were shown. Fancy
work displayed was very dainty and
some of the pieces were unusually
elaborate and attractive. Most of the
work was embroidery and some eff
fective work was displayed
There were only three community
exhibits this year, all from this part OF
the county First prize went to Orch
ard City, which had a display filling
one entire side of the exhibition hall
The display had everything imagin
able in it and all entries were artist
cally displayed. The background OF
the display was lovely being made OF
asparagus fern and Mexican fireweed

tered against a background of leaves

STUDEBAKER PEOPLE
ANNOUNCE NEW MODELS

Changes in all Studebaker models
have been announced by that company
and details of these will be found on
another page of this issue of The In
dependent. There are fifteen new
bodies among the new models and sew
eral new types of car.
One of the most important things
about the new cars is that the Stude-
baker people have originated a Du-
plex body. This is an open car which
can be converted magically in five
seconds into a waterproof, snug and
dry, closed car of unsurpassed beauty.
An entirely new Standard Six which
! takes the place of the former Light
Six is equipped with this new du-
plex body which entirely supersedes
the former open touring car and open
roadster bodies; also in the other two
models, the Special Six and the Big
Six. Among the fifteen new bodies
there is an entirely new four passeng-
er Victoria on the Special Six chassis.
Balloon tires are part of the ejuip-
ment of Studebakers this season and
the lines of the cars are designed to
harmonic with them. Four wheel
brakes are optional on the cars. I'M
portant improvements have been made
in the engines of these cars also. in
Guiding a new force feed oiling sys-
TEN, with a new straining feature.
The new cars will be on display all
over the country Immediately. Seals
Brown Auto Co. are the Delta agents
and will be glad to show you the
new models.
