THE DAILY GATE CITY
Easterners Are Asking if Terms of
Decree In Child Divorce Suit
Will Bar Him From ......
New York.
According to New York Judge Who
Signed Mrs. Child's Papers, Right
to Re-marry Was Denied
Husband.
When Richard Washbu.'i ,-ildc
first wife secured her divorce last
April her husband was forbidden
under terms of the decree to remarry
during the lifetime of his wife.
Whether his new marriage will bar
him from New York in the future is
a matter of speculation oc the part
of Boston friends of the interested
parties, according to the Boston
Herald. Following is a clipping from
the Herald of August 18 anent the
wedding:
Friends of Richard Washburn Child,
author, attorney, and until recently a
leading progressive, expressed sur
prise yesterday at the announcement
of his ,Wedding to Miss Maude Parker,
gTandnifce of Geni Daingereld Par
ker, UV-S. Ai.'i^tlf&l, of Washington,
D. C. The ceremony occurred at Ha
vana, Cuba, Aug. 12, in .th6 presence
of a few intimate friends.
The event has added interest owing
to Mr. Child's long residence in this
city and because his former wife,
Elizabeth Scott child, obtained a di
vorce last April. By the terms of the
decree, granted by Justice Cohalan of
the New York -supreme court, Mr.
Child was forbidden to romarry dur
ing the lifetime of his former wife.
Whether his new marringe will bar
him from New York in the future was
a matter of speculation yesterday.
Mr. Child was graduated from Har
vard in the class of '03 and in the fol
lowing year was married at the Little
Church Around the Corner, New York,
to Elizabeth Scott of Arlington, Va.
Soon afterward he removed to Boston
and took up the work which gave him
a national reputation as a writer of
short stories.
Through MB uncle, Charles Sumner
Bird, he became Interested in the pro
gressive party and was one of its
most enthusiastic supporters in this
section of the country. Mrs. Child
became well known in Boston as an
ardent suffragist and active worker
in many charitable causes.
Until about fifteen months ago the
Childs made their home in Boston and
when they went to New York, their
friends had no hint of domestic diffi
culties. Mrs. Child brought suit in'
January, 1916, and three months later
secured an interlocutory decree on
the ground of infidelity. .The case
was uncontested.
After the divorce she vnt to live
with her aunt, Mrs. Elizabeth Taylor
of Baltimore, In a New York apart
ment.
Across Continent Alone,
NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—The only
woman who has ever driven across
the continent alone in an automobile
today delivered a personal message
from Mayor Rolph of San Francisco
to Mayor Mitchel of New York. Miss
Amanda Preuss left San Francisco
AugustS at six a. m. and arrived here
Saturday at 2:30. Her time was elev
en days and five hours. She followed
the Lincoln Highway, was unaccom
panied and carried no fire arms.
"I can handle a gun, but I wanted to
show what I could do with an auto
mobile," said Miss Preuss today. "I
didn't carry a gun and had no need of
one."
Because red is the color least easily
distinguished by color blind persons,
experts have advocated blue disks
with wide yellow rims for danger sig
nals.

The family of O. E. Pence had the
pleasure of entertaining for several
days lately, a guest who brought
word direct from the son, Earl Pence,
who is a Y. M. C. A. assistant secre
tary at Coiwtantinople. Mr. Jacobs,
the visitor, has been the Y. M. C. A.
secretary at that point for the la/Bt
six years, and is now taking a vaca
tion in this country. He eays the
Turkish people are of a very mixed
character. Those who are of the
pure Turkish stock, he regards as
amtong the most scrupulously honest
people he ever knew. Many of the
mixed races, however, are dishonest
fanatical anid cruel. So far as the
present war is concerned, those who
are at Constantinople know nothing,
hear nothing of what is going on,
only that aU hioepitals are kept full
of wounded there would be no evi
dence of war anywhere.

Writer In Burlington Paper Tells
What He 8aw In The Gate City
After a Long
"A
OF
KEOKUK GIVEN
Absence.
WAS NOT TIO RE-MARRY HANDS A FEW BOUQUETS
He Thinks Iowa Is All Right Anyway
and Tells Just What He Saw
Here That He
Liked.
A resident of Iowa for a number of
years, who has returned to his na
tive heath, has some very compliment
ary remarks to make concerning Keo
kuk, in a communication to a Burling
ton paper. The writer who signs him
self Melrose, compares the differences
between the Iowa cities that he vis
led and in his letter to the Hawk-Bye,
says of Keokuk:
"It was a joy to me almost unspeak
able when my feet pressed the dear
old Mississippi shore again as I
stepped off the train, northbound, at
Keokuk, and walked up the Main
street hill into the heart of the town
last Saturday night. The Gate City
never looked so good to me as it did
then and the next day, while I ram
bled around and looked at everything
and everybody in sight.
"I had come up from St Louis, and
to that great metropolis from the
Ohio river cities and towns most of
the length of that beautiful strgam,
then through the centers of Ohio, In
diana and Illinois to the Mississippi.
With these fresh views of some of the
finest parts of the United States and
after having seen and Btudied care
fully during my life twenty-seven
other states beside the Hawkeye land,
I was Just in the right condition ot ex
perience to contrast truthfully every
one and all things my eyes might be
hold In Iowa.
Keokuk Beauties.
"My first great impression as I
stepped from the cars at Keokuk was
the throng of handsome girls standing
at the depot—much better looking
than those I had noticed at Qulncy,
-Hannibal and St. Louis, also including
the chief inland towns of Illinois not
far back from the river. Another
sight in Keokuk that pleased me great
ly was the clean appearance of every
thing—business streets, residence
avenues, stores, public buildings, river
front and people. The latter said
business was quiet, but no one seemed
worried about the future. All were
good-natured and appeared to be en
joying themselves and at peace with
the rest of the world. Speaking of*
Keokuk's charming cleanness, I want
to say that is one of the first and
greatest things about a city or town
to Interest a stranger. It pays big
from any standpoint it can be looked
at—appearance, pleasure, health, mor
al and social uplift. The same Is true
of farm homes and premises, country
roads and districts."
Valentine Is Dead.
OCONOMOWOC, Wis.. Aug. 22.—
Patrick A. Valentine, 56, former vice
president of Armor and company, and
recently a resident of New York City,
died at his summer home here last
night. Funeral services will be held
here privately Wednesday, it was an
nounced today.
Valentine attracted the attention ot
the late P. D. Armor while speculat
ing on the Chicago board of trade,
and when Valentine encountered re
verses, Armour employed him. He
later became financial advisor to the
widow of P. D. Armour. Jr., and as
their business relations brought them
together frequently, their engagement
and marriage followed.
He was a director in several New
York banks and a member of the New

The "Nonsousing" Community.
"Bix" in the Lincoln Journal: It
would require no comment to prove
that, other conditions being equal,
the people of a nonsousing commun
ity are more prosperous than those
who blow their money for booze.
Instead of an asset the public drink
ing place is a liability wherever it
exists. Instead of helping the. com
munity it hinders it and hampers it
and cripples it in every way. The
working man who drinks is less ef
ficient, the bookkeeper less accurate,
the clerk less reliable. Alcoholic in
dulgence tends always to demoraliza
tion. It is dangerous to the individ
ual and a continual menace to social
order. is quite as reasonable to
license the sale of ha&it forming
drugs as to license the retail liquor
trade, since alcohol is as dangerous
a dope as any when the appetite for
it once becomes fixed.
