SHIP WRECKED MATRIMONY

Here they are from the records of the Gary superior court: Actresi Names Another Woman. Margaret Poole, who seeks a divorce from her husbandfi, Ray Poole, and the restoration of her maiden name, says she is an actress, living in Shelby, down the county, and was married eight years ago. In the complaint Mrs. Poole says her hubby hit her with a club, that he displayed a violent temper and besides this she names another woman. Attorney George Miller of Indiana Harbor, is counsel for the plaintiff. Joe Would Wot Work. Mr. Miller is also attorney for Anna Lewandowski of Indiana Harbor, who has four children. She complains that her husband, Joseph, hasn't supported her and as a result the plaintiff has had to take in boarders. , Sicked Her, Slept on rioor. This is also a sad tale. In 1914 when she was only 15 years old. Mary Komasarick said her daddy made her get married. Now she wants a divorce from Michael Komasarick of Gary, as well as some coin during the pendency of the action, filed by Norton & Rose. Mrs. Komasarick's complaint is brief. Besides being compelled to go out and work for her living, Mary says her hubby gave her no money, kicked her, insisted on sleeping on the floor instead of in bed, and brought whiskey into the house. Otherwise there was harmony. THE HOOK FOB JLLDL T0 OP GARY?

First assured that they had Ktrer,th enoueh to ward off any politi cal flo-Vit nn linvnr Johnson, as a result , . ...... - j of tc "reform'crusade initiated by steel officials tnrougn me. uary commercial club. Aldermen friendly to the administration let the ordinance go through. To Oast Sale t It was said that the" reason for the passage of the rules was the decision to go after Alderman Tony Mis, a Lithuanian who has a saloon in the south side. It is understood that Mr. Mis. who recently was indicted by the grand jury because of the way his saloon was conducted, refused to resign. ' The council can now proceed to oust Mr. Mis or any other member of the city government. Rumor has It that if Mis is ousted that Frank Spychalski. Republican candidate for alderman from the ward will get the place. Should any attempt be made to put the council investigation rules to misuse a quick clamping of the lid on the fake reformers as well as the exposure of many things is promised. GROCER ASSIGNS.
