PLANS DIVORCE
SUIT AS HER
WAY OUT
viii Work to Keep Children,
As She Always Has ToiIed,
Unhappy Woman Declares

LA PLATA, Md, Nov. 22.-Mrs.
Lulu Mae Gamble, who late
yesterday was acquitted of the
murder of Mrs. Elsie Davis, the
woman who broke up her home,
probably will file suit for divorce
against Joseph Gamble at once.
The "Tiger Woman" as she
was termed by her own counsel
during the trial. has lost all her
love for the man who is father
Of four Of her 10 children, she
said.
Her love for him died yester-
day when he took the witness
stand and. despite instructions
from the judge that he, did not
have to testify, eagerly told his
story that his wife might be
sent to the gallows or to prison
for life.
Love Died in Court
Mr.. Gamble stood in the rear
Of the court room when the bell
in the quaint old courthouse
tolled the news to the town that
the IL good men and true had
reached a verdict.
And when the foreman an
nounced in his deep voice that
the woman was mot guilty" he
left.
And so Mrs. Gamble went to the
little hotel here, dazed by the
rapidity of the verdict, scarcely
realizing that she was a free
woman.
Seated in her rooms in the no
tel, free for the first time since
last September when she was
locked up in the little Charles
County Jail. she spoke bitterly Of
her husband. She said:
''I don't know what I'm going
to do. Everything. has gone
wrong. loved Joe. wanted him
to love me, and he did for many
years.
"And then he got up there
and lied, lied about me to try
and send me to prison. / guess
that killed off any love had
/. left for him.
Knows How to Work
81 don't know what to do.
guess I'll get a divorce and then
go to work and support the
children. / can work. That's
all 1 have ever done in my life"
Friends pointed out, however,
that Mr.. Gamble is a well-to-do
man, ard that Mrs. Gamble prob
ably will be given alimony to
raise her four little children.
Mr.. Gamble owns two farms
here and one in Pennsylvania,
and is said to be one of the rich
est farmers in the county.

Arch Enemy's Aid

Llaundudno, Wales, Oct. 7.-Re
James Maxton, leader of the inde-
pendent labor party and long one Of
the most caustic critics Of the present
labor government, threw his support
today to Ramsay Macdonald in q de-
bate on unemployment at the labor
party's national conference and urged
the prime minister to go to the coun-
try to seek q majority at the polls.
I'VE cannot throw the prime min
lister overheard as we did j. H..

warned Maxton.
IF the prime minister goes, the
government goes. II the government
goes we've got to start all over again
as q mere propaganda organization
to tell people the socialism is the only
hope Of the workers"
I'VE sent the government into par

new social order. They are holding
the reins today. IF they r unable
to carry out their policy 1t is for them
to say so and go to the nation and
ask for that power"

Vatican Clarifies
Marriage Agreement

Vatican City, Oct. 7.-R1-A semi
official note was issued by the Vati-
can today for the purpose Of clarity
ing the religious question involved In
the Betrothal Of Boris, King Of Bull
garia, and Princess Giovanna Of italy.
The note says negotiations now are
in progress to settle the dispensation
for a mixed marriage but the dispen-
sation has not yet been granted.
1T Is untrue that the heir to the
throne Of Bulgaria must profess the
orthodox faith" the statement said.
Constitution Article 80 provides that
the king must profess. the arthodox
religion but it makes no mention Of
an heir to the throne. We are In
formed authoritatively that an &C.
cord between the Italian and Bulgar-
ian royal courts on the religious
question already has been reached in
the sense wished by the Catholic
church: that is, that all children Of
the union will be baptized and edu-
Gated as Catholics. The future king,
when he must ascend the throne and
finds himself confronted by this ar
ticle, must then make his own deci-
SON.

Mott, N. D., Oct. 7.-State Fire
Marshal II. L. Reade was here as the
guest Of the Mott Lions club and adj
dressed the members together with
the personnel Of the fire department
who were the guests Of the club. He
also addressed about 200 high school
students at the opening session. His
message was Of the immense loss OF
life and property In the United
States, largely preventable.
He stated that when the fire losses
and deaths due to fire In this country
are studied and compared with Euro
pean countries It Is found that this
country has losses almost 10 times
Is great in proportion. &
Every day In the United States, he
said, we burn eco dwellings, five
schools, five churches and one hospi-
tai. Our property loss exceeds one
billion dollars annually. From $4,000
to II, 900 human beings. mostly wom-
en- and children. perish In fires an
nually which are largely ~preventable.
North Dakota contributes its pro rata
share Of this loss.
C~arelessness is largely the cause OF
CONGREGATIONS. The great Chicago
fire started from an overturned Ian
tern. The SO, 100000 Baltimore fire
was due to q careless smoker. The

MANDAN NEWS
M@ORYONOLIVER Case
MAY Be TRANSFERRED
Judge Berry Says He Is Dis
qualified; Argue Over Nov
ing of Keller Family

An appeal to be made by the Nor
ton county commissioners requesting
that q family be moved from New
Salem back to Oliver county prob
ably will be made before Judge Fred
Jansonius, Bismarck, it was an
nounced. this morning by Judge II. L.
Berry, Mandan.
Judge Berry said that he was dis
qualified in the case and the change
OF venue probably would be made.
The Morton commissioners would
move the family Of Charles Keller,
not that of Burton Wilcox, from New
Salem back to Oliver county. Burton
Wilcox, Oliver county states attorney,
is opposed to the action desired by
the Morton officials.
The Keller family, consisting OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Keller and IL children,
moved from Oliver county to New
Salem last Oct. %. Because the fam
ily is poor, Morton officials believe
the Kellers will appeal for county
poor aid after they have been Nor
ton residents for one year. For this
reason, they are appealing from the
decision of a justice Of the peace at
New Salem, who ruled that the Keller
family might stay at It's new resi-
dence.
Wilcox opposes the requested move,
charging that the Kellers moved TO
Morton county Of their own + e Will.
