TO FIGHT DIVORCE LAWS.
Wife-Swapping In Pennsylvania as
Easy as Horae Trading.
Pittsburg, Pa., Jan. I.—Miners and
other workers in the Pittsburg in
duetrial district have combined against
the use and abuse of divorce laws in
this end of the slate, and have asked
Robert M. Heath, a husky coal miner
from Mtffln Township, to stand for
the state legislature on a “no divorce"
platform. Mr. Heath ha* consented
and promulgated a unique platform.
"1 have pledged myself to fight tire
present divorce law* tooth and nail
ft elected to the legislature, and will
do it." said Heath. "I find that a
man In Pittsburg who don’t like hir
wife, nr who rather thinks he llker
his 'affinity' better, can get a divorce
for >CS. T'kD 1* too cheap, and this
indiscriminate granting of divorces
for the asking must be stopped, and
will be stopped, if I become a mem
ber of the legislature. Why, as mat
ters are now, it is, about as easy for
a man to get rid of his wife and get
a new one a* it is for men in the
south to swap horses. It I* a crying
shame and disgrace to the state, and,
must be stopped.”
Mr. Heath specifies that in hl* bill
he will make it obligatory on a man
seeking divorce to pay hl* wife as
much money per week as be formerly
spent on her before hi* love grew
cold, and that he shall at aU time*
before nnd after bq| compelled to sup
port and educate the children. It shall
also be specified that the state or
county furnish each woman with an
attorney to fight her case if she can
not hire an attorney of her own.
NEVER HEARD OF GOD.
Doc* Not Know Hi* Age, or Birth
Place.
Muskegon, Midh.,. Jan. I.—The
most startling case of ignorance ever
developed in fhl* city came to light
here during the hearing of a lawsuit
tn the local -courts. Fourteen year
old Adam Burroughs was on the stand
and the lawyer* brought out the facts
that he did not know hi* age, could
not tell where he was born, and had
not. heard the name of the state, coun
ty of townehip in which he lived, had
never heard of God and had but a
faint recollection of one Christmas.
The lad never been to school
until he ran away from home because
of mistreatment by hi* father. Picked
up by John Lamoreaux, he went tw
school and Is now being educated with
boys less than half his age.

New York, Jan. I.—Women are

LAST DAY WAS ORDERLY ONE
In Birmingham Alons 120 Saloon*
Went Out of Businas*—Housshold
*rs Carried Homa Much Liquor to
Fortify Themselves.
Birmingham; Ala.,,Jan. I.—With
the shrill rhriekfl of the hundred* of
whittles of Industrial Birmingham, an
nouncing the advent of the new year,
Ivery saloon In the county closed it*
door* elne die. January 1 was the
time set for prohibition to go into i
effect in the counties of Alabama in
Which local option elections have been
held during the year. Wired the re-.
*nlt of the election In Crenshaw coun
ty became known, and it was added
to the prohibition ranks, there were
exactly fifty counties in the state
which closed the doors of the saloons
permanently December 31, 1907"
This leaves seventeen commies in
the state from which liquor can be
sold for another year. One year from
Jan. 1 the entire state become* pro
hibition by statutory act. Os the wet
ecunties for the next year only four
are exclusively saloon counties. Mo
bile, Montgomery, Dallas and Bald
win. There are eleven exclusive dis
pensary counties, Macon, Winston, El
more, Bibb, Limestone, Madison, Cle
burne, Perry, Barbour, Colbert, Cov
ington and Coffee. Marlngo county
bas both dispensary and saloons.
Jefferson county, in which Birming
ham Is located, is by far the largest
county In the state, and In Birming
ham alone 120 saloons went out of
business at midnight. A remarkable
feature of the last day under the liquor
regime 1* the fact that there was lose
drunkenness noted than for many,
months. The amount of liquor sold
December 31 was probably greater
than on any previous day in the his
tory of Birmingham. This resulted
from the purphasing by Householders
of various liquors in bulk to fortify
them in cases* of sickness and emer
gencies. The greater jf&rt of the
liquor sold was in bulk
SHARPERS AT ROME.
Gang Ha* Devised Mort Cold-Blooded
Scheme.
Rome,, Ga., Jan. 1, —Chief of Police
Wimpree. of this learned
that there is a .band of sharper* en
gaged In work around Rome and Bir
mingham. Their scheme is to watch
the death notices in the different
\re*e ; a. ers, then send worthless pack
ages to the deceased by express c. o.
d, having frem five to twenty dollar* 4
express charges due. It I* natural that
these packages will be accepted by
relative* of the deceased, and the
money paid, then forwarded to the
shipper.
It is an easy scheme and almost
any one can be robbed before the send
er of the package can be traced. The
shippers receive their money, and
then go to some other point to work
their scheme. The proper authorities
have been notified of the operations
of this band of thieves, and it is be
lieved they will be caught up with
«nd punished.
