Mrs. Rogers Granted Dutch Divorce Decree | Utrecht, Netherlands, July 12 | (UP)—Misconduct' on the part of| Col. Henry H. Rogers, American | financier, as charged in the divorce | suit of his wife, Mrs. Mary Benjamin Rogers, was sufficient to win the lat- ter a divorce jn the courts here. | B A decree entered June 26 was made definite on its registration July |2 it was discloseti today. Col. and [ Mrs. Rogers are the parents of Milli- |cent Rogers, the former Countess {Salm Von Hoogstracten. whose di- vorce from the count and subsequent court battle over their son drew wide attention.

Hunts Rat With Truck and Gets His Quarry | Motor trucks have been used | for many and strange purposes, [ but Killing rats with a motor | truck involves a proficiency in | expert driving and motor | marksmanship which was dem- | onstrated probably for the first time in this city by the driver of a delivery truck for a Park street grocery this morning. The truck, with the name V. Abecunis on the side. was pro- ceeding south on John street at a speed of about 20 or 25 miles an hour. There was no other traffic in sight. Suddenly the truck shot towards the left curb at increased speed, swerved just as rapidly toward the right curb, the driver jammed on the brakes and within a distance of 50 feet from where the first out- burst of speed occurred came to a stop. A laugh from the driver fol- lowed with the exclamation: "I guess I got him all right,” fur- nished a clue. Investigation re- vealed the fact that a big rat had darted out from beneath a hedge near a chicken coop and impudently started across the street. The journey never was finished.
