Action on the officers report will fol
low the selection of n. place oC meet
ing and afterwards miscellaneous busi
ness will be Introduced. I'ncler this
order of business, tho action of tho
national council in session at Minneap
olis last June, regarding the changing
of tho name of tho organization, will
come up for concurrence. The na
tional body's decision to have a wo
man's auxiliary will also be acted up
on, and may bo ratified, as tho Daugh
ters of America nnd the Daughters of
Liberty, while they are at present allll
iatod, are not auxlliarier.
Tho matter of changing the name
will not bo concurred in, ns tho na
tional councillor has recently suggeS
ed that no action be taken. The change
suggested was to be tho name "United
Americans," but In view oE the fact
that tho "Order of United Americans"
was instituted In Philadelphia on Feb.
19, IS!).", and incorporated the foll&wlng
December, the change Is an Impossi
bility. Tho order referred to has over
r,000 members and twenty-six temples
in Pennsylvania and nine In New Jer
sey. Tho officials of tho order of United
Americans have notified tho national
secretary of the Juniors that they will
contest in court the right of any other
organization to take their name, and,
according to legal advice, they will ho
upheld in their position. The matter
will probably be finally disposed of at
the next session of the national coun
cil. Several new laws will be Introduced
to conform with tho laws adopted at
tho Minneapolis convention, and
amendments to tho state constitution
will be offered to harmonize with the
national council's affairs.
The delegates will continue in ses
slon tomorrow and Thursday until all
the business of the state counoll is
passed upon, and U Is xpeci..) that
the convention will have finished lis
woik by Thursday evening.
Tho programme outlined for tho busi
ness and social entertainment of the
delegates Includes tho reception nt
Laurel Hill park this afternoon nnd
evening under tho auspices of tho
Dau'ghters of America, roll call of rep
resentatives and election of officers to
morrow morning at the Lyceum and

SIX APPLICATIONS
FOR DIVORCE
THEY WERE FILED WITH PRO
THONOTARY COPELAND.
One of the Petitioners Is William
Reld Whose Domestic Troubles
Hrvo Been Repeatedly Aired in the
Papers During the Last Pew
Months Opening Day of the Sep
tember Term of Common Pleas
Court Two Actions in Ejectment
Begun LangstaiT Contest.
Six applications for divorces were
filed with Prothonotnry Copelnnd yes-
,torday. One of tho petitioners Is Wil
liam Held, the uunmore mine uosi,
whose troubles with his wife nnd their
boarder, Robert Nelsmlth, during tho
early summer, nre still fresh in tho
minds of newspaper readers.
Tho Holds were married Feb. 18, 1S91,
and lived together till June, 22, 1899.
Everything went well with them until
Nelsmlth, who was Hold's playmate
In boyhood dnvs In Scotland, cam?
along nnd was takan Into the house
hold ns a boarder. He was not In the
house very long before Mrs. Reld
evidenced so strong a liking for him
that her husband grow suspicious nn.i
spoke to her about it. According to
the husband's story, she not only did
not deny having n fond feeling for tho
boarder, but openly admitted that he
was her ideal man.
Thereupon Reld ordered Nelsmlth
from the house. Ho said ho would go
If Mrs. Reld desired It. Mrs. Reid'
not only did not want him to go, but
averred that If the boarder went she
would go, too. Tho boarder went and
true to her word she also left.
This all occurred In the latter part
of Juno. A few weeks later Reld had
Nelsmlth arrested for alienating his
wife's affections. Tho warrant was
served July 13, and Nelsmlth, In de
fault of ball, was committed to Jail.
Ho remained in Jail for nearly a
month, receiving visits from Mrs. Reid.
The Incarceration, however, was do
decidedly to his unllklng and he sued
for a compromise. Reld relented and
agreed to withdraw the charges If
Nelsmlth would return to Scotland an 1
leave him to the uninterrupted enjoy
ment of his wife's affections.
Nelsmlth got out of jail and left the
city, ostensibly to return to Scotland.
It appears, however, that he did not
go, hut Instead remained in this coun
try and continued communication with
Mrs. Reid. At least, so the husband
believes, and hence the divorce pro
ceedings. John F. Scragg is his attor
ney. Mr. Scragg also filed two other libels
In divorce. Edith Finn, aged 18, seeks
separation from her 20-year-old hus
band, Harry Finn, of the Sixteenth
ward, because of alleged cruel and bar
barous treatment. They wore married
Oct. 21. 1S.97. in Portland, and lived to
gether until July 12 of this year.
Frank Schauer, a butcher of the
South Side, alleged desertion against
his wife, Elizabeth Rosen Schauer, and
asks to bo divorced. They were mar
lied July 7, 18SS, and she left him, It is
claimed, In July, 1899.
Henry Wood, through Attorneys 13.
J. Moore and John P. Oulpnan. jester
day began proceedings to secure a
divorce from Susan Miranda Wood, to
whom he was married on Aug. 17,
1872. at White Haven. After residing

town, where Wood alleges his wife de
serted him on Dec. 22. 1S92. She has
not lived with him since. Wcod now

dale, seeks a divorce from John .1. Mc
Gouan. who H now serving n sl.v years'
term of imprisonment In the Eastern
penitentiary. .Mrs. McGownn Is repre
sented by Attorney John V. Reynolds,
of Carbondale.
Mr. nnd Mrs. McOowan wore mar
ried In Oetob. r, ISRtl. nnd lived togeth
er until April 15. 1S97, when Mrs. Mo
(lowiin says, she wns compelled lo
leave her husband because of his con
duct toward her. On April 1C, 1807,
McGowan was comic-tec1, of burglary In
the court of oyer and terminer of this
county and wns sentenced to six years'
Imprisonment In the Eastern peniten
tiary where he now Is ,
Attorneys Vosbarg and Dawson filed
