The Amended Plan
The amended plan ln brief Is that
the entire J12t>,6".0.000 in Southern
Pacific stock to be distributed shall be
deposited with a trustee and disfran-
chised while so held, that certifi-
cates of interest shall be issued by the
trustee against such shares which
shall carry no voting weight and
whioh shall be exchangeable for
Southern Pacific shares held by the
trustee, only upon the filing of an af-
fidavit by the applicant for such ex-
change, showing that such applicant
does not own one thousand shares or
more of T'nion Pacific stock, and that
these certificates of interest shall be
offered for subscription and purchase
to all T'nion Pacific stockholders
ratably, at a distribution ratio not less
than three per cent.
The largest Union Pacific stockhold-
ers ( 368 ln number, according to the
September stock list, which was be-
fore the supreme court) are by this
amended plan entirely excluded from
the acquisition of any of the Southern
Pacific shares to be distributed. They
may purchase their ratable shares of
the certificates of Interest but they
cannot themselves convert the certifi-
cates of interest into t+ie deposit cou-
pons, which represent Southern Pacif-
ic shares because of their inability 1
to comply -with the condition prece-
dent or swearing that they do not own
1,000 or more shares of Union Pacific
stock. The exchange cannot be ef-
fected fur them throu gh some dummy
or an agent, because the proposed af-
fida\ It requires the applicant to sw ear
that he is the bonafide owner of the
certificate of interest presented for
conversion.

The temper of the family and the
good cheer around the table, depend
so much on the good digestion of each

Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. This rem-
edy is an excellent digestant, and in

the food, acts gently on the liver and
bowels, ridding them of the accumu-
lation of waste that should long ago
have been passed off. It ls safe, re-
liable, pleasant-tasting, and results are
guaranteed.
In the opinion of such people as Mr.

gestion. no matter how severe, consti-
pation no matter how chronic, bilious-

youngest of six children, to Mrs. Quinn
and myself, use it for stomach trouble,

Galveston, Tex, April 21.—The

many letters of late commending the

The Santa Fe also will have the
hearty assistance of manufacturing j
concerns which mawe containers for
eggs, butter, fruit, vegetables and
products of that character, the dam-

BELTON, Apnl 21.— Some statis-
tics, on the issuing of bonds to the
amount of }1 00,000, which is pro-
posed for the building of good roads
in Justicfc precinct No. 1 of this coun-
ty, have been carefully prepared by
those interested in the measure and
are of keen interest and concern to
every man who haj> a vote to cast on
the measure.
The following are the statistics

due in forty years, with interest at 6
Per cent, with option of taking up
1 any or all at the end of ten years,
are to be issued This will necessi-
tate a tax of about 33 cents on the
$100 of the assessed valuation of pre-
cinct 1. This tax will yield $l.Jf>0
each year, of which $7,500 gone to
pay the interest, and $3,750 into a
.sinking fund which at the end of the
forty years would take up all the
bonds if they ere allowed to run that
long
This sinking fund, if not used to
pay off a part of the bonds, will be
deposited in the county depository
where it will draw 7 per cent interest
under the arrangement now in force,
and can always be made to yield at
| least 5 per cent interest w hich will
go to help pay the interest on the
bonds, thus decreasing the rate of tax
|levy each year.

When you use Syrup Pepsin you will

I><wrtc<l Wife ul Unfrocked Clergy,
man Decides to Do the Big Tiling
By Those W lio Wronged Her.
NEW YORK, April 21.—Mrs Mirau
ila L'oukc announced today that she
had at last briught suit for divorce
agmst her husband, Jere Knode I'uuk.
iler husband eloped six years ago with
I* loretla Whaley, a IG-vear-old girl,
who was his ward The man was at
that time the pastor of St. George's
Episcopal church at Hempstead, Long
Island
The deserted wife has finally de-
cided to do "the big thing", she said.
"The knowledge that she had tor-
felted the respect of other women and
men was the thing that hurt the
most."
Mrs. f'ooke denied a rumor that she
had sued to prevent her husband from
sharing in the estate she has inherited
from her parents. In discussing her
suit, she said:
"I have never had any idea of re-
venging myself upon either Mr.
Cooke or his unfortunate companion.
That is not In my power; it rests with
a higher power to adjust those things.
When Mr. Cooke deserted me I came-
to my parents They welcomed me.
They were old and 111, and the. shock
of my husband's unfiathfulness and
the notoriety which followed, worried
them greatly. I put my troubles be-
hind me and devoted all of my time
to them.
Crushed by Dei^ertion.
"Finally, my mother passed away
and only my father was left Natu-
rally, I spent all of my time with him
and never allowed my affairs to both-
er my mind. When my husband left
me, I was so crushed by the blow that
I felt only religion would console me,
and I tried to become a deaconess
Hut after being with my parents for
sometime ] found my heart softening.
' >ften w hen I was seated at my fa-
ther's bedside, I would see, in fancy,
children playintf out, arid the thoupht
of Mr. Cooke's two little ones made
me set aside principles and seek a
divorce.
"In spite of the fact that my church
does not recognize it, I decided after
much thought to do the big thing. I
waited until my father had departed
and then began my action. But It
was not to seek my own freedom My
reason was to give Jere Cooke's inno-
cent babies a name and their mother
the right to call herself his wife.
"I do not approve of divorce, but I
now consider that my marriage to Mr
Cooke was only a man-made mar-
riage. We never were in atune with
each other. He was a negative and
I was a positive.
"I am bound to admit that after the
treatment I received from Mr. Cooke
I have no desire to see him enriched
by my inheritance. Under the law of
Connecticut he could claim a portion
of the estate ln case of my death, but
this was not my reason for suing him.
If there was not a dollar at stake I
would still seek a divorce.
"I only hope he will do the right
thing by his companion and their
children. In freeing him I bear him
no malice, and only hope his God will
forgive him his sins a3 readily as I
do. I have only the best wishes for
both Mr. C
w lfe-to-be."
Mrs. Cooke declared that while shs
would never assist < 'ooike financially,
she would aid his children if th^Jf
ever were in warn
"For six years I hav e lived only
this day to come, and now that It haft
arrived, I can hardly realize that at
last my prayers have been answered,"

mons and complaint were served last

brought by Mrs Cooke
Cooke and his companion were busy
hanging pictures In the new llttl*
home they have just taken when Con-
called, in answer to his ring, Cooka
stable Conroy of Hartford. Conn.,
opened the door, and when ConrojT
proceeded to take a paper out of his
pocket, the clergyman paled, and,
clutching a chair In front of him, de-
trended to know if he was about to b®
arrested.
"Mamma, take the children out of
the room until 1 find out what this
man wants with me," cried Cooke to
}■ loretta Whaley, who had appeared
in the door with her little sons at her
skirts.
Conroy attempted to explain he was
merely trying to serve a summons on
Cooke in an action for divorce, but ho
had only reached the word dlvorcs
when Cooke, w ith a cry of Joy, seized
the paper and began eagerly to read
It.

"Thank God'" he exclaimed, "Oh,
God, from the bottom of my heart 1
1 thank Thee for sending this great
blessing to u«. Now, Indeed, do I
know that we have been forgiven for
I offending Th ee."
: Floretta Whaley took the paper
1 from Cooke's hand while he wras pray-
ing and began to weep as she read.
The children, Paul, 5; and Chester 3,
seeing their parents so disturbed, be-
gan to sob, but Cooke gathered them
In his arms and explained that mam-
ma and he were not sad but very hap-
py
"You have no Idea what this paper
means to me," explained Cooke.
"Every niKht Floretta and I have
prayed that Mrs. Cooke would relent
and set nie free so that we oould be
married I prayer to God to take this
means of showing us that He forgave
us for our offense, titid' r»ow th*t It
has come, after all these long yejrj,
, it seems unreal.
"Since we left Hempstead six years
ago our lives have been made miser-
; able by the public," he continued,
i "Everywhere we went we were re-
garded as outcasts. While ln San
Francisco we were forced to move 18
I time, and since we came east we have
moved five times in less than a year.
But, thank God, that will be over now.
I can take my wife and babies any-
where, and no one will be able to amy
anything about them. My greatest
suffering has been the knowledge of
, the great wrong I did the pluckiest
| little girl that ever lived.
