Considerable excitement has existed in the east part of town the past few days because Horatio Ropp killed James Jordan’s large dog. Mr. Ropp is a constable and states that he killed the animal in his official capacity; that the dog was unmuzzled and tried to bite him. He says the dog was in his yard. Mr. Ropp states that he was threatened over the telephone, but that he was performing what he believes to be his duty and will not stand any abuse. It Is understood that the Jordans claim that the dog was entirely harmless and was killed through spite. The suit brought by Maudie Rodman to have her husband, William F. Rodman, placed under bond to quit “pesterin’ her” was dismissed Thursday, the costs being mutually left unpaid. Constable Robinson, who made a long drive to Laura to procure witnesses, served notice that hereafter he will have to see the color of their money before he will go outside of Marion township. Maudie decided that she would take her chances without having her husband placed under bond provided he would agree to let her have a divorce and he finally agreed, although he "said. “I Just love that woman with all my heart.” She charges that his love is emotional, cool and warm, hot and chilly by spells, and not the constant devotion that goes out and hustles for the daily bread. By the agreement she is to get her divorce without protest from him and he is free from any responsibility. My loan company is still-making farm loans at 6 per cent.
