31nn Bronco. LOS ANGELES, Feb. evidence would seem to show thai he niaried a virago," commuted Judge Grail after he had granted Frank kR Michaels, a divorce from Francis Michaels. Judge Wood some time ago denied Mrs. Michaels a divorce, and at that time Mr.

Michaels defended the action. He told the story of a unreasoning jealousy. Without any excuse for her action, he said, she went to his offices and, introducing herself as Mr. Michaels sister, she made inquiries in a casual way. 'How's business?" she asked Robert Reed, a clerk.

Fro mtliis led casually to the real object of her visit, it appeared, by asking if "the boss" ever took the pretty stenographer home in the evening. Mr. Reed who has ben a cowboy, and broncho 'buster in Montana, testified: "Mrs. Michaels wanted me to bring about a meting with the stenographer I believed from what she told me that she was Mr. Michael's sister.

1 did not like-the look in her eyes. She looked the way a mean horse looks. I have handled lots of horses in Montana, and she had the 1 same expresion in her eys as bronks have when they are mean." A meeting with the stenographer was arranged in "Westlake Park, Mr. Reed being present, and Mrs. Mich- aelstold the stenographer what kind of a man Mr.

Michaels was, according to her idea. She said he was no good and cursed him. The incident of driving both Mr. Reed and the stenographer out of Mr. Michaefs o--ce in March, 1918, was told dramatically.

She apparently started negotiations by hurling the telephone at the stenographer. When Mr. Michaels arrived, he found his wife in charge of the o--ce. He took her home and tried to mollify her, She seized a butcher knife he said, and to avoid being stabbed, he held to her wrist. The Michaels were married at- El Paso July 7, 1907, and separated June 27, 1918, One allegation in the complaint was that Mrs.

Michaels asked her husband for $100 a month to ibuy "booze," in consideration of recieving the money, she said she would go back to Chicago.

Major General Leonard Wood was accorded a hearty welcome to the city of Linocln Monday at a luncheon at the Grand hotel where more than three hundred men and women gathered to hear him speak. During the course of his address, General "Wood declared himself for universal military training, the votes of women, the extension of good business, adequate salaries for instructors, a square deal for both capital and labor, rehabilitation, a single language and that 'American, the promotion of agriculture, and the recognition of the American legion; Many people have the wrong idea about the words military training according to General Wood. 'The government ideal is to take each young man at the time of life when he needs it most for from four to six months and give him military instruction combined with industrial training. The plan is to turn him out -a better citizen, a better tradesman, and a better man physically. He spoke of the men who came into the army with the draft and told of the physical defects which were corrected before the men entered upon their army life.

This universal training would have for part of its work, the preliminary physical treatment which would be to (benefit of every young man. Instead of compulsory military training, the term for this project should be universal training for national sen-ice. It stands for co-ordination of mind and muscle, respect of law and order, citizenship and good health. As to the argument against military training that it will make our boys war -hungry, General Wood brought out the point that this could be disproved by the attitude of the boys who have been the hecent war. Few- of them have returned with an apietite for the army life, which woulfl to follow a profession.

The physical training which they received has Drought many of them back with healthier bodies. "Don't misjudge us," said General Wood, "Whatever you desire to do thru us, congress will do. We are public servants." The government has at last taken hold of this very moderate military plan which is good for the young men of the United States, in all its phases, civic, industrial, vocational andphysical." General Wood touched on the question of women's votes. He expressed the belief that they will inject a better, cleaner spirit into American politics. He believed that America Vill have better schools, better tenements, better working conditions when women help to make the laws.

His advice to women was to clean up their party, but not to scatter their efforts. He emphasized the value of good organization. General Wood deplored tiie system which seem to put brains at a discount. Intelligence and character in i the teaching force of the United States should be appreciated to the extent of sufficient remuneration. He pointed out the danger of discontented teachers in charge of the children.
