Annoyed in Law and Changeable Plots in a Domestic Feud

A man publicly acknowledged as a husband faces a tangle as his mother-in-law seizes control and plots a new marriage to an orphan girl to create a mother-in-law dynasty. The quarrel shifts to divorce and disputes over unity, power, and of course, marriage. Meanwhile reports note annexation talk in Queensland and a depot fire in Arkansas with incendiary suspicion. An Interstate Commission pushes for federal aid education in the South.
