'Phone 97, H [ % FIX THE MARRIAGE RECORD Well Known Business Man Oomplying with Law in His Native Land, RIGHTS TO PROPERTY ARE INVOLVED Records 1a Nethertand Greater Accuracy Th Obaerved in the Require Much n is Usually nited States. Mar Bouricus, the well-known music dealer on Broadway, secured yesterday from Judge Wheeler of the district court an or- der correcting the record of his marriage in this city in order that the requirements of the law in the Netherlands, his native country, might be fully complied with. Mr. Bouricius expects to become heir to prop- erty In hio native country and this made the correction of the marriage record here necessary. The full name of Mr. Bouriclus is Mar- inus Bodinus Louls Bouricius, and that of his wife before her marriage to him, Jo- hanna Pauline Louise Lohan. They were married in this city July 5, 1887, by Rev. T. J. Mackay, then rector of St. Paul's Eplscopal church of Council Blufts. The marrlage record did not contain their full names as above, but only thelr initials, and there were several other abbreviations. The law in the Netherlands requires that all names of persons and places be spelled in full, and the record was, by Judge Wheeler's order, 8o corrected yesterday. The law of the Netherlands also requires that all persons under the age of 30, before being married, must publish the marriage bans three times, with an interval of four- teen days between each time, with the statement of the parents’ consent. This Mr. and Mrs. Bouricius failed to do, and | fearing that in the future it might cause trouble, they had the bans properly pub- lished in the nmative country, and then, on July 13, 1888, had the marriage ceremony | agaln solemnized, this time before Justice of the Peace E. S. Barnett. Both Mr. Bourlclus and his wife expect to inherit property at some future date In their native country, and in order to pre- vent, by some technicality in regard to their marriage, any trouble for themselves or their children in obtaining the inher- itance they had the records corrected to comply with the provisions of the law in the Netherlands. The certified copy of the corrected record was forwarded yesterday to his native home by Mr. Bouricius. BIDS ARE ALL BEYOND REACH Addition to Plerce Street School Can- not Be Built with Money* Voted. As the figures failed to come within the | 328 Tenth avenue. amount appropriated, the Board of Educa- tion last night rejected the three bide re- ceived for the building of the four-room addition to the -Plerce Street school. It was decided to modify the plans so that the addition can be built for the $8,000 ap- propriated for the purpose by the vote of the people at the school election. The mat- ter was referred to- the committee on grounds and buildings to confer with the board's architects, Mesers. Cox & Schoent- gen. The bid of Wickham Bros. was $11,- 990, including plumbing and heating. That of John P. Weaver was $12,210, figuring the heating $1,185 and the plumbing at $1,225. George Hughes' bid was $11,800, fig- uring the plumbing and heating at the same figures as contained in Weaver's bid. Wick- ham claiméd to be the lowest bidder by $11, as his figures for plumbing were subject to deduction according to the material used. All of the figures on the plumbing were subject to <hanges, according to material used, making it impossible to determine which was the lowest bid unless tabulated. Hughes had failed in his bid to figure on the heating and he was permitted to add the amount for this work, the other bid- ders consenting, as they had all used the same figures, furnished by the same plumb- ing firm of this city. Several suggestions for modifying the plans were made, one of them being to only partly complete the addition this year and ask for another appropriation at the next school election. After & lengthy die- cussion, during which Member Macrae pro- posed that the bullding be deferred until material and labor became cheaper, the matter was referred to the committee on buildings and grounds to confer with the architects and report at the next ing warrants had been taken up and that the district was now on a cash basis, thero being a small surplus in the bullding fund and about $1,000 in the contingent fund. The committee on fuel and heating was authorized to secure plans and bids for a steam heating plant in the Avenue B school to replace the furnace which was worn out. It was decided to place the tollet rooms in the basement of the Bloomer school in- stead of in the yard. The grand plano in use at the High school for the last year was ordered purchased at & price of $375 instead of paying & rental of $50 a year for it. The board decided to join with the prop- erty owners on Voorhis street and petition the council to’ lower the grade of that street four feet. This will improve the grounds at the rear of the Plerce street school. It was decided to request the city council to establish & permanent grade on McGee avenue, on which the Harrison street school abuts on one side. It was decided on the recommendation of Superintendent Clifford to retain Charles Balley, chief janitor at the High school, during the summer vacation months as watchman and custodian of the building at $50 & month, he being required to sleep in the bullding. Mr. Clifford suggested that as the bullding contalned many valuable books and other supplies, a watchman there was necessary. The report of Superintendent Clifford for the elghth months of school ending April 25, contalned these statistics: Entire en- rollment, boys, 2,622; girls, 2,659; total 5,281; monthly enrollment, boys, 2,251; girl: 2,306; total, 4,557; average daily attendance, 4,083.64; per cent of attendance, 92.61; num- ber cases of tardiness, 348; number nelther absent nor tardy, 2,10L All trimmed hats at greatly reduced prices, Friday and Saturday, May 23 and . No. 341 Broadway. Willlam Donaldson Missi Willlam Donaldson, employed by the mo- tor company at Lake Manawa, has been missing from his bome on Avenue A, be- tween Thirty-seventh and Thirty-eighth streets, since Monday morning last, and his tamily sought the assistance of t suthorities to try and find him. His wite aud members of the family fear he has met with foul play. He is 62 years of age and has been in the employ of the motor company as enfineer of one of the steamers on the lake for the last six weeks. He worked Sunday, and Monday morning left his home for the purpose of going to the lake as usual. He was attired in his or- dinary working clothes and had $26 in cash with him. He failed to report at the lake and no trace has been obtalned of him since he left his home. It was thought that he might have gome to Avoea, Ia., where he formerly lived and where he has rela- tives, but inquiry yesterday showed he had not been there. A married daughter, Mrs. Jacoberger, resides in Omaha, but he had not been there. Mrs. Jacoberger was in the city yesterday and was much alarmed over her father's disappearance. Mr. Don- aldson i a man of regular and exemplary habits and his family can give no reason for his leaving his home. His domestic re- lations are said to have been of the hap- plest., Smallpox Among Graders. The fact that three smallpox patients trom the grading camps along the grade of the Great Western railroad have drifted into the city to be taken care of is viewed with alarm by the health authorities. Dur- ing the week three men suffering with smallpox have been sent to the pesthouse Dby the local health officers, the third being taken there yesterday afternoon. He gave the name of W. J. Eaton and sald he had been working in the camp of the Bates & Rogers Construction company since last Monday. As the grading camps are located outside the city limits the municipal health authorities take the position that cases of smallpox arlsing in them should be cared for by the county and not by the city There was talk yesterday of the city health board demanding that the county super- visors take the necessary steps to quaran- tine the grading camps in which smallpox has developed.

(From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, May 23.—(Special.)—The supreme court in a decision in a Council Bluffs case today rendered an opinion which will stand as a precedent in matters re- lating to bullding and loan assoclations and their duty to carry out contracts. It was the case of Elizabeth Field againat the Bastern Building and Loan association. She had become a stockholder to the amount of five shares of stock of $100 each. The contract stipulated that in seventy-elght months the stock would mature on pay- ments of 75 cents a month. The plaintifft lived up to her part of the agreement, but when she attempted to re- cover the amount of the stock she was in- formed that the estimate was wrong and that she would have to continue payments it she desired to mature the stock. Many questions were raised in the trial, but the court devotes greatest attention to the con- tract, it states that the contract was mot an informal, hastily prepared memorandum, but a part of a carefully devised plan of bueiness. “The great body of the patrons of such associations is made up of men and women of limited experience,” says Justice Weaver in the opinion. “Not one in a hundred of them, though of falr average intelligence and caution, would put upon the contract any other construction than the plaintift aid.” A determined stand has been taken by the court on questions of repudiation of con- tracts of this character, The opinion says: “It is repugnant to the very accepted defi- nition of contract that one party shall be clothed with a right to repudiate its obli- gation in whole or part while holding the other in strict compliance with its terms. ““There is nothing in the nature or organ- ization of the defendant which can or ought to relleve it from the performance of its contracts. The fact, if it be a fact, that In the end it may not be able to pay the claims of other members is a matter we cannot consider. We are not charged with the duty of winding up the affairs of the corporation or settling the rights of mem- bers upon a final distribution of its assets it any. Our only duty at this time is to construe the contract on which sult is brought and to enforce it accordingly. The action is held maintainable.” Canes Declded. The opinions handed down were: Elizabeth Fleld against Eastern Building and Loan Association, appellant; Pottawat- tamie county, Judge Green; action on cer- tificate of stock; afirmed; opinion by Weaver. Marcia A. Gill against Chicago & North- western Rallway Cpmpany, appellant; Polk county, Judge Prouty; action to recover posucsdion ot land; afMrmed; opinion by herwin. SR and L c.

He will re- turn in a few days and issue his first order and name his aildes. George A. Newman of Cedar Fal continues as assistant ad- jutant general. Practically all who had been attending the meeting of the Grand Army of the Re- public and kindred bodies have returned ta. thelr homes. Not one of the visitors was injured or became ill or got into any trouble, and the week, considering the large: number of persons present, was re- garded as one especially fortunate in Des Motnes. The last few days there has been an un- usual fall of raln in Jowa. The local weather station reports the fall of rain last night to amount to 1.02 imch, which brought the total fall for the month of May to 4.77 inches, which is above the normal. The rain continued falling during the day and reports indicate that the rainfall is general over Iowa. In the northwestern part of the state heavy rains have been re- ported all week and the farmers say that the ground is entirely too wet either for planting corn or cultivating it and that the weeds are getting a big start on the crops. Injury to gardens and orchards is also great. Tows Mineral Output. Prof. 8. W. Beyer, assistant to the state geologist, in his annual report on the min- eral statistics of lows The year 191 shows a spl ease plendid incre in_mineral production for lowa over pre- Seding vears, both In quantity and price. This Increase is not confined to any one department, but every department, save for lead and zinc, shared in the prosperity. Coal ~alone shows an advance in totai e of over 31,000,000, or a net increase of about 15 per cent. Clay shows almost the Ssame percentage of increase, while the value of stone advanced 30 per cent and the iron ore production more than double. The statistics for gypsum were not com- plete for 190, and comparlsons cannot be made in detall. The output for 1901, how- ever, shows a fair increase over 1%0. The total number of producers increased about 6 per cent, chiefly due to the more com- Rlgte retuins from the stone producer he value of the coal output is placed 12,204,610, that of the clay products §2.774 . limeatone $675.798, crushed stone $192.271, bfl?e stone $9.5%, blast furnace flux $250, sandstone §13.06 and other items 36,3%.
