Lemuel Simmons was tho plaintiff, Ho was formorly the hus- band of Mrs. Coulter, but the latter was du vorced from him on the ground of desertion, and she was nwarded thetitle to the property in question. Simmons, wiose whereabouts had been unkuown at the time the decree of divorce was granted, turned up later on ana filed a petition in court asking that the decreo be set aside in both particulars, ana that he be given possession of the property. His allegation was that Mrs, Simmons had known whero he was at tho time hee petition for a divorco was filed, and that instead of serving bim with a notice, had published tho notice in an obscure country paper for tho purposo of ikdening hiciin the dark as to her plans, Yosterday the case was deciaed by Judga Macy 1o favor of tho defendant, so that all doubt g8 to the ownership of the nroverty and tho logaliiy of her soparation from ber former husband is set at rest. highly elated Belioves In Protection, James, who is known far and one of the tried and true demo- in talking yesterday admitted he believed 1n protectior. **Thac I think thut cvery ono should get protection from loss by fire by insuring in our ome company, the National Mutual, if you cull that believing in protection, set'me down us one of them, - But, without jok- ing.” continued the judge, “and without reference to politics, it seems a little Judge near crats, that is, I bolieve in it Lo this extont, 1 stra that lowa people are so easily blinded to their own interests.

Patieats at a distancy su - vestigation of the subject of improper mar- riages would seem to offer more hope of re- sults beneticial to society than examination of divorce statistics, It takes both time and mouney to geta divorce, while marriago is casy and cheap. Evena tramp walking across “the country for a prize found no difficulty the other day in fulfilling that part of his agreement re quiring him to marry some one on the wa Cbildren, utterly unable to carn a living or to take cure of the fawily nature is sure to inflict upon them, find no dificulty when they run away from toeir parents in per- suading some preacher or magistrato totally unacquainted with them 1o unite them for life or the divorco court. Tuere are not nearly so mavy divorces as improper mar- riages, and there ure few cities in which the preachiers havo not performed more improper marriages than the uum- ber of divorces granted by the courts. A fa1r share of divorces are granted in the in- terests of decency, justice and morality, and for the welfare of sociery, This cannot be said of many marriages periormed as an alleged sacred cercmony. No preacher who unites children in marriage, or performs the ceremony for any couple uot known to him or vouched for Dy some responsivle pzrsoa whom he Knows, should cver opsu his mouth in criticism of the divorce urts. That many divorces ure lmproperly and fraudulently secured there is no doube, but the end of tbe marriage relation where the most iischiof is done is the front end, und a large share of tois mischier is done by lazy and greedy preachers who ought to be sawing wood for b cents a cord instead of marrying babies for a few dollars a coupie.
