MISINTERPRtTS COURT SMILE N0 WEDDING

Colored Man Who Den1- '1 He Wished ,*o Remarry Has His Divorce Set Aside.

Janice Grimes, a colored "house man" who has worked with a number of well known families of the cHy, ran up against a snag in Judge Cox's Court Monday as a result of which wedding bells did not ring for James as he had fondly hoped they would. He presented himself in the county clerk's office early in the day with Mrs. Anna Miller, herself a divorcee, asking for a license to wed. Grimes was divorced from his first wife in the Superior Court Saturday, and during the course of his examination he was asked by Judge Cox if he was securing the divorce with the idea of re-marrying. He •was vigorous in his protest that «uch was not the case, saying he when a roan had made a great mistake like that once he was not going to do It again, and that he had no idea of remarrying at any time.

When the fact that two days later lie waa applying for a license was brought to* the attention of Judge Cox the latter sent for Grimes, and notified him that the divorce wanted Saturday •was set suslde, and he cr^ild not remarry. Grimes hung around for a long time and Anally got a, cnance to see the judge and attempted to apologize for the statement made to the court Saturday, saying that the court smiled when he asked him the question and the plaintiff thought it didn't make ?.ny difference. He said that he had a«ke^ iMrs. Miller to marry him because he had a chance to get a permanent position with a South Sixth family whit requires a man and wife. He a"ked the judge to forgive him, but the ju^ge said the dismissal still stood, and that Grimes had better bring his atto.ney to the court before any further action is taken.

ROBBED WHILE HE SLEPT.

Greencastle Man Causes Arrest of Negro. Merrill Bee and John Costin, claiming to come from Greencastle, appeared at police headquarters early Monday morning and reported that they had teen robbed while aeleep on the court house lawn by a negro, who they awoke to find going through their pockets-

Bee was robbed of a watch while $1 in money was taken from Costin. Costin'a pocket was cut. According to Bee the two watched the negro enter the John Gibbs saloon, Second and Ohio streets, and then reported the matter to the police.

BIcyclemen Hardy and Allen were sent with the men and went to the

saloon. The negroes were lined up /against the wall and out of fourteen, one giving h!s name as Harry Scott, .was singled out as the man who had ^robbed them. Scott claimed he had been in the saloon all evening but he was examined by Assistant Chief Nugent and sent to jail, charged with larceny. He pleaded not guilty in City

Court Monday morning and his case was continued until Friday afternoon.

ACCUSED OF PICTURE THEFT.

Negroes Are Held Following Theft At Art Store. Although caught with some of the pictures recently stolen from the Vickroy art store, Ninth street and Wabash avenue, two men giving their .names as John Barrett and Henry Dewltt claimed they were innocent of any theft and said they found the pictures. The arrest, made by Bicycleman Charles Smith, followed frequent reports from the art store that pictures were being stolen. The pictures were identified. Both men pleaded not guilty to a larceny charge

In City Court Monday morning and their cases were continued until Tuesday morning for Vickroy to testify.

GUN TOTER PAYS FINE.

Warren Bass, colored, who was found loitering about the streets late Saturday night and who was arrested by Patrolman Bennett, charged with carrying concealed weapons, was fined heavily In City Court Monday morning. He pleaded guilty and was given $50 and costs. Judge Smith announced that he was going- to break up the practice of carrying concealed weapons.

CHERRY STREET BULGES.

Rain and heat of Sunday caused the wooden blocks on Cherry street to bulge almost the entire length of the street. Men were put to work Monday morning by Street Commissioner O'Mara, making the repairs. According to the commissioner and Harry S. Montgomery, president of the board of works, the street needs resurfacing.

G. W. Kirkpatrick, of the Globe Milling Company, 148 Laguna St., San I Francisco was in bed, believed to be at the point of death for nearly nine weeks. Dr. Proctor told his wife he was liable to die at any moment. There was dropsy and the eye symptom and he had reached the convulsion stage.

In making one of the tests, after boiling Dr. Proctor dropped the tube. On picking it up he found the sample had not run out. It had solidified, showing almost solid albumen. The doctor administered Fulton's Renal Compound. This was in 1906. Patient's appearance at our office well and hearty in 1913 Js answer as to the results and their

It is the picture of a very handsome man with adorable hair. There Is1 an "expression" in the eyes. His hands are thrust into his trousers pockets and his coat is thrown back, displaying a vest of ingenious pattern and ohade. At the lower corner a graceful and flowing hand has inscribed, "Ever Faithfully, Everard De Ormand." It cost fifty cents, including the autograph, at any matinee.

To Peggy, it seems, there is to be found in this enchanting likeness, the very flower and cream of masculine beauty. That strong line of the chin, displayed to tjie best advantage in the pose of the head, Is indicative of every species of manly vigor and bravery. That mellowing and romantic light in the eyes speaks of a heart that "under

SOLUTION IS OFFERED FOR SEWER TROUBLES

Engineers Say Objectionable Components of Waste Must be Removed If Stoppage Is To Be Prevented.

The only permanent relief for the troubles of the Locust street sewer, about which there has been considerable controversy between Mayor Roberts and the Terre Haute Paper company, will be to compel the paper company to eliminate objectionable components from the waste of its plant and deliver its sewage to the sewers free from the same, according to a report received Monday morning by Mayor Roberts from Henry Maetzel, city engineer of Columbus, O., and O. T. Whiteman, assistant engineer.

On Sunday, August 2, and on the following day, the two men with Mayor Roberts made an Inspection of the sewer as it was being cleaned and samples of the waste were taken at various points for chemical analysis. Altogether ten samples of material were taken from the sewer. They were at Fourteenth, Fifteenth, Sixteenth, Nineteenth and Twenty-second and Locust streets at Nineteenth and Elm streets Twentieth street and Third avenue, open vat Inside the paper company building, bottom of sump outside paper plant and north of sump outside the paper plant.

The report shows that samples taken between Fifteenth and Nineteenth streets, below the paper company's opening into the sewer, consisted mostly of a hard substance and of a fibrous nature, with a strong tendency toward a laminar formation.

Hard Substance Found.

The substance taken from this portion was quite hard, says the report, and had a decided odor when freshly taken. The consistency of the sewage was of a somewhat sticky nature, which together with its tendency to laminate, would produce accretions on the sides and walls of the sewer and in the course of time would produce interferences with the free flow of the sewage.

These interferences would in time produce a completo stoppage of the sewer unless removed. The color of these samples was in all cases dark yellow and totally different in color from the sewage ordinarily encountered in sewers used exclusively for house or street drainage, according to the report.

The samples taken from Twentysecond and Locust and Twentieth street and Third avenue were of entirely different nature, both In color and consistency. They resembled the sewage to be expected from sanitary eewers used to drain houses and such as might be looked for from street drains.

The sample taken from Nineteenth and Locust streets where the paper mill sewage empties into the sewer a re it to to a other samples.

The sample taken from the open vat Inside of the plant showed a gritty

IX WHICH PEGGY THINKS SHIS WOULD 1,1KB TO MEET THE HANDSOME MATINEE IDOL.

EGGY, with a little frown of dissatisfaction, has another chew of the end of her pen, and then starts again:. "Dear Mr. De Ormand: "I have seen you act and admired you so many times that I thought I would—•' but that sounds so childish. t«o! Another piece of her note paper drops Into the basket in shreds and I'eggy pauses to feed her enraptured gaze upon the full length portrait before her.

stands." The nose of a Greek god and the finely chiseled nostril, the firm though sensitive set. of the lips—what a Joy to meet and know a man like that!

Mr. De Ormand is the leading man of the local stock company. Each week he appears In a new role Just a bit more enthralling than the last. She has seen him tnis afternoon in "The Prisoner of Zenda," and why say more? Someone had suggested that he was forty years old and married to the loading lady. Peggy raged at these idle words. It was clear to her at a glance that he wasn't more than twenty-five.

She has bent to her writing again. Many other girls wrote to him, of course, but there was to be a tone in her note—a breath between the lines that he alone would understand. To phrase it with delicacy and nicety is the business that puzzle3 her just now. The woes and distresses of composition restrain and bridle the tenderness that floods her heart. And at this moment Aunt Betty surprises her at her desk.

Aunt Betty's look upon discovering Peggy'B deep preoccupation is one or sympathy and understanding—and amusement. Aunt Betty wonders if Peggy would really be pleased to meet Mr. De Ormand. Is there anything that would to delight per? And Peggy in a rapturous daze hears Aunt Betty say that she thinks she cam arrange it (Continued.)

pulp of about the same color as samples taken below Nineteenth street. Pulp and Sand.

The sample taken at the bottom of the sump Just outside the plant showed pulp and sand, and that taken outside of the north end of the sump mentioned before showed mostly sand.

The sump, from which the samples were taken was installed by the paper company for the purpose of catching sand and waste plup and lime for the purpose of keeping it out of the city sewers. It is about thirty feet long, but from the condition of the sewage examined, there is some defect in its operation, probably a lack of sufficient cleaning to remove the accumulated settlements, according to the report.

The report concludes with the following: "In general it might be said that basing our opinion on the conditions as actually encountered and taking Into consideration certain known Ingredients being used by the paper company in the manufacture of paper, such as straw and lime used in forming the paper pulp, there is no doubt in our minds that the trade wa«te discharged into the city sewers by the company is the chief contributing cause to the sewer troubles such as a tendency to stop the same as you are experiencing and that unless proper precautions are taken by the paper company to segregate these objectionable ingreUents of sewage before the same enters the city's sewer system, you will prcbably have a continuation indefinitely of the trouble you are now encountering."

The report of the two engineers, who are considered experts on sewer work, will probably be Introduced as evidence at the hearing of the bill of complaints before Judge Anderson of the federal court. Mayor Roberts has already filed a cross-complaint to the action.

A FINE COMPLEXION

A girl's complexion Is something more than a matter to concern her vanity. It is an indication of the state of her health. Pallor in a growing girl means a thinning of the blood. Eruptions mean impurities in the blood. Parents should be watchful of their daughters' complexions, and should see to it that these danger signs are corrected, not covered up.

When a girl in her 'teens becomes pale and sallow, especially if, at the same time, she shows an inclination to tire easily, a llstlessness and inattention to her work or studies, she needs Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, a tonic which directly and specifically corrects the condition from which she is suffering. A chemical analysis of the blood of such a girl would show it to be deficient in just the elements that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills can supply, but the physical signs are plain. Every girl should read the chapter on "Chlorosis" In the free booklet, "Building Up the Blood." It tells just what to do and gives directions regarding diet, exercise and rest.

The girl with a muddy complexion should have the booklet "A Dainty Lexative," which tells about Pinklets.

These books will be sent free on request by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. T. Your own druggist can supply Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
