THE MARRIAGE TIE.
Strange Case In an Indiana COurt-A
Contract on the European PIan.s

Strange Case I'm an Indiana COurt-A
Contract on the European Plan"
INDIANAPOLIS, June 2j.-JaTed X.
Buell. was arraigned in the Criminal Court
this morning, on an indictment for adultery
with Susan ID. Gilbert. The defendant
admitted that he was living with the
woman as man and wife, and believed he
was legally married to her, and that said
marriage was binding by the agreement
made between the parties on the 25th of
May, 1915, copy Of the agreement being
filed, which is as follows: 81, here in the
presence Of the witnesses, take by the hand
Susan ID. Gilbert as my lawful welded wife,
and promise to fulfill all the duties of a
kind and faithful husband in prosperity or
adversely, in sickness or in health, so long
as the union Of lore and life shall last.
Whereas, the courts OF law have decided
that marriage is a civil contract and gov
eTned by the same Jules as other contracts;
therefore, we hereby agree that this con-
tract exist and be in force during cur phys
ical life; provided our mutual love natures
ever blend as now, but to terminate with
out prejudice by the wish Of either party,
if love shall ever cease TO be mutual, which
event we trust and believe will never
occur"
The burden of the defense was that the
agreement constituted legal marriage, to
which the prosecution excepted on the
ground that the defendant was trying to
eyade the marriage laws Of the State, and
that the agreement or contract with Susan
d. Gilbert was null and void as a legal
marriage, by reasoI Of the provisO in the
second clause of the agreement. Decision
not rendered. The case is attracting con-
siderable attention.

Another Blast for a Third Term.
Undying Hate-Grant THiGted ON the

Civil Rights Bill.
INDIANAPOLIS, June 25.-The Indian
ap0LiS san Of tomorrow will contain a
letter from Wendell Phillips, addressed TO
a member of the GAIL -Greenback" cOnyen-
tion that met in Cleveland, o.. last March,
in which he says:
"HSe publicly advocated third term for
Grant, unless some one can be found as
sure as he is to rally the whole North, and
as true as he has been TO claim from the
South all the fruits OfOur victory. He has not
by any means done his duty. When he
claimed or consented to the rejection Of the
school clause of the Civil Rights bill, he
made that indispensable measure almost
useless, and blasted the hopes Of the nation.
Still / know no one more to be trusted
than he, who has any chance to be elected.
But your party Tepudiates him because
he is joined TO the bulliOnists and stock
mortgages. | lament this as much as YOU
can. Still a nation never can attend to but
one issue at a time. All history proves
this. To-day belongs to the great struggle
for equality before the law. The South
hates this and means to defeat
il. The North has hidden this grand
rule in its heart OF hearts. This
provoked and justified the war. The bat
tie over it is not ended. For this struggle
the nation is ripe, ripeIed by forty years
of discussion and five of war. Much as /
value your great financial measure, must
in this next Presidential canvass measure
ny candidate by another standard-loyalty
. impartial liberty. Show me man true
to this and also to financial reform, and
with a fair chance of success, and am his
earnest, devoted and siDgle-hearted sup
porter everywhere, at all times. Very re-
spectfully, WENDELL PHILLIPS.

NEW YORK, June PA letter from
Maracaibo, of May 20, gives an account of
the earthquake at Cyrcutta on the 18th.
The first shock leyeled every wall in the
city, burying in a single instant 5000 peo-
pie out of a population Of 10000. Several
were not killed, but subsequently died from
the inju ries, and many were murdered 10y
robbers who plundered in bands. The
shocks continued, and the fires burned much
property. Those saved fed to the neigh
boring country and escaped. When the
news reached MaracaibOtwO steamers were
sent with food and clothing 20 the sufferers
by the Americ IN consul and people; also a
corps of physicians and committee to dis
burse aid. The government sent soldiers
to protect the people.
Reports fom San Caye.tens, Santiago,

The Target and the Festive BOARD.
DUBLIN, June 25.-The Irish and
American teams shot for practice at Dolly
mount yesterday. The shooting was very
fine, and it would be difficult to say which
team did best, 50 nearly equal was the skill
displayed on both sides.
The Grand Lodge of Masons
Of Ireland gave a banquet to the
visiting marksmen belonging to the
Masonic Orde=. The assemblage was
large and brilliant. Among the guests
were gentlemen representing Nova Scotia,
Portugal, Canada, New Y YOrk, Virginia and
Illinois. Complimentary tOasts were drunk
with great enthusiasm. Messrs. BOdine
and FULTON responded for the American
team. They said the warmth of their re-
ceptiOn was beyond their highest anticipa-
tiOns. Every act and look of their Irish
friends showed that they loved America.
The bond Of friendship between Irishmen
and Americans was stronger than that be-
tween any other two people.
Fine Practice by the American Team.
Irish and American Teams practiced at
DalymOunt to-day. The scoring of the
Americans was remarkably fine, the total
points made being sixteen above the victor
ious score last year, at CreedmOOr.
The following is tO-day's score for the
Americans: Fulton, 10; Dakin, 16l;
Gildersleeve, 159; Coleman, 15S; Bodine,
156; Fall, 14G; total, $50, out Of possible
score of 1850.
The practice CT the Irish team was much
inferior in result.

AnONG TIE Thinkers
ST. Louis Republiean.

SI. LOUIS Republican.
Very few Of our readers know what a
TUnker is. A Tunker is one Of a Christian
gathering that live in the high hills or noun
tains u Virginia, Maryland, and princi-
pally in Pennsylvania, the old men despis-
ing hats and wearing long beaTds, and the
equally quaint old women habited in linsey-
woolsey dresses but discouraging bonnets.
Last week the funny-lOoking Tunkers held
an annual convention near Lancaster,
Pa, and they came down as usual from
their coigns Of vantage in remarkably shah
by out-oi-tashiOn wagons TO enjoy them
selves in a good old-fashioned Tunker
prayer meeting, and dispose of their pro-
duee end few fxings TO pay The cost of
the trip. The Thinkers are so comical in
their exterior as to attract large crowd
whenever they cOuvocate, but their earnest
sincerity and Christian simplicity are so
manifest that they command respect from
the more worldly, even if they cannot
prOselyte. They preach and pray
and sing hymns in PENNSYLVANIA
Dutch during the dav; in the
evening they meet in a big ba,n where
they indulge in a delightful love feast of
mutton broth, and then further regale
themselves by washing each others feet.
There is nothing heterOdOx in mutton
broth an feet washing, for after this hui
mility the TUnkeTs paTtOok Of the c0mmu-
mon with a devotional feeling which
commanded the sympathy of all who
had gathered to witness their Oddi-
ties with the intention of laughing
at them. The Tunkers in other ways
are equally singular. They abiure the
pomps and yanities Of dress. There are
no paniers and chignons among the Tun-
keresSes, nor patent feathers nor fash ties
among the Tunkers, and their homes are as
plainly attired as their persons. They
never quarrel publicly or privately; they
carry no arms save those which nature
gave them, and their wisdom announces
itself by their never going to law. They
declare work to be an essential Of religious
life; their preachers receive no pay, work
ing as others work; they build no churches
whose ambitious spires seek TO spike His
fOotstOol, and they walk humbly and
spOtless through life, and although fre-
quently made the sport of boys who think
them almost as good as q circus, they pass
on fOTgIvingly and content. Such are the |
Thinkers who expect to 90 TO heaven by |
addressing the throne of grace in Pennsyl- |
vania Dutcb, and who, judging from the |
above description, will be as likely arrive |
there perhaps as many who make larger |
pTeteBSions.

GOOD HOTEL SENSE.
81. louis Globs-Dsmoerat.


The prcprietOrs Of the Southern Hotel
have done wise thing in announcing a
graduated scale Of prices for transient
guests, according 70 the location Of rooms
desired by them or assigned % them. No
other system Of charges should ever have
been in operation IN any fIst-class hotel II
the country. Where two guests arrive,
and one is assigned TO No. 10 on the first
floor, while the other is booked for No.
TJG on the fourtlL0r fifth floor, if both are
charged the same price, partiality is shown
to one or extOrtiOn is practiced upon the
otter. As a general rule, where the ssaie
price is charged, the assignment of rooms
aud accommodation depends largely upon
the mOmeHtary temper Of the clerk, and
his mOmentary opinion Of the guest before
him. 10 is impossible 10 build hotel, no
matter how well it may be supplied with
elevators, in which the upper floors win be
as pleasant for guests as the lower hoOrs;
and 20 graduate the charges according TO
the location Of rooms is merely 10 do what
is done in every other business.

WASHINGTON, June 25.-Judge Spence
Assistant Attorney General for the Post
. once Department, has furnished an opinion
70 the Postmaster General taking the
ground that postmasters are liable on their
bonds for losses Of Government property
while In their possession. The occasion
OF the decision was the loss of a registered
package containing 500. worth of stamps

Il Is the ilrst time that an opinion has been

Army Inspectors.
The Board Of Indian Commissioners
have requested that officers Of the army be
detailed to inspect the Indian supplies at
Kansas City, Missouri; Sioux City, Iowa,

directed Lieut.. Gen. Sheridan, command
ing the Military Division Of Missouri, to
detail officers to make investigations at
those points.
What the Black Hills RIBg are After.
The war for the possession of the Black
Hills will, it IS thought by the initiated,
soon be inaugurated. The policy of the
Black Hills Ring is to induce the belief, if
possible, that there is no gold in that sec
tion, which accounts for the contradictions
so industriously prepared and sent TO the
press.

A DARTNG CLUB EXPERIMENT IN
LONDON.


London Correspondence New York Tribune
The Albemarle Club has at last, alJer
many months delay, opened its doors This
is an association organized on ths principle
of ignoring sex, and givil & 10 men and
women together the ordinaly facilities of
A London club. It is the first experiment
of the kind. There is a club
for women separately already
in existence on a small scale, but there
never has been one where the two sexes
meet on even terms. Bold as the venture
is, it has the countenance of some Of the
best women and men in England, and it
begins with over three hundred members,
having. accommodation for five hundred.
Care has beeL taken to meet some OF the
obvious difficulties in the case. Only some
Of the rooms are TO be used in cOmmO n.
There is a separate drawing-rOom for
ladies, and a smoking for men, from
which ladies are expressly excluded
though smoking among ladies Is not un-
known. The dining room Is open TO both,
but if lady likes a cup OF tea In the ladies'
drawing room, she may have that. Al
present there is nothing in the rules to pre-
vent q member Of the club Of either sex
from asking a friend Of either sex to lunch
or dinner. The only security taken on this
point is that the name of the guest
and host shall be entered together in
book open TO inspection. The marriage
relation gave rise TO some debate, l hear,
in connection with the question OF MEM
bership: but it was decided that the club
bod nothing TO do with tin other words,
tbat wife might be a member without her
husband. and the husband Of course with
ont his wife. | indicate only one or two
out of several curious points Of inquiry,
some of which remain yet IN
doubt and vet must be disposed OF. The
experiment is made in perfect good faith,
and the club is entitled, since they would
make #, to fair treatment. But Il IS din
cu,t 10 see how its life can be much pro-
loueed without giving rise to scandal,
though scandal and entire innocence, as is
often tie case, 60 together, OF to believe
that its members will not by-and-by find
that they have made mistake.
