CHIoAao nIYoRCE PARTIEs.

. Chicago has rather an unenviable reputa-
ton growing out of the easy manner in
which divorces have been obtained in that
city. An effort is being made to pOpularise
this feature Of Chicago life, as the following
incident reported in the Times, win show:
GDivoree parties are coming into fashion

great questions pass through three stages,
viz: ridieule, argument, adoption. Chicago
mans have bravely encompassed them all,
so far as divorce is concerned, and as the
world knows, now revel in undisputed lux
urv of full possession. In fact, divorce has
become a fashionable thing, and like all
kindred events, such as births and marri-
AGES, is celebrated with festive proceedings.
The west division witnessed an affair OF
this kind the other evening. There was a
large gathering and the newly made widow
received the congratulatior s Of friends and
relatives with as much pleasure as would a
newly welded wife after the ceremony of
marriage. A handsome divorce cake was
one of the features Of the occasion. 1t
was mounted by a handsome monogram,
the letter 3D. for divorce being entWined
with the lady's name before her marriage.
There were also some highly suggestive
presents"
