New YORK, March 11.-Dr. Dix
, last night delivered the fifth of his
lectures on women, which have
awakened such angry discussion.
He inveighc bitterly against the evils
of the divorce system and especially
i'll New England. He said divorces
occurred one to fourteen marriages.
The practical result of this facility of
divorce is that, in the New England
States alone, 1000 families are
broken up every year, 4 900 persons
divorced, and the laws protecting
marriage have been gradually weak.
ened. In Massachusetts, in 10 years.
divorces have increased two and one
half times, while marriages have in
creased hardly one-ffth. In Maine
divorce is granted by any justice of
the supreme court whenever, in the
exercise of his discretion, he thinks it
reasonable and proper, conductive of
domestic harmony, and consistent
with the peace and morality of So
clety. When one marriage may be
lightly set aside and another entered
into, we shall have reached the con
dition of the Mormon, with this sole
difference, that his polygamy is sim.
infamous and ours is consecutive.

A. J. PendletOn & Son.

Messrs. A. j. Pendleton s. Son,
the well-known horse shoers Of
Second South Street, have already
commenced shoing fast horses to
be worked on the track. This year
they are we'll prepared for the
work, and with the promise of in
teresting races this year it is more
than likely ali the preparations they
have made will no more than equal
the demand. Last year Mr.. Andrew
Pendleton took care of the shoeing of
some forty head of fast horses,
both trotting and running, at the
track, and acquitted himself with so
much credit that scarce a word was
said of his Work except praise, and
considering the work some of the
animals were called upon to do, it
required skillful and thorough shoe.

have every kind Of shoe for trOt-

Besides this, they do all kinds of
horse shoeing, and enjoy reputa-

Theodore Thomas.

The interest already being taken
in the prospective coming to Salt
Lake of Theodore Thomas, the phe-
nomenal conductor, and his grand
orchestra, is surprising, considering
thu present early date. It is now
definitely settled that he will be
here during the month of June, and
will give four grand concerts in the
Tabernacle in this city. Subscrip-
ton lists are already out and can be
found in nearly every music store
in the city, where persons can
subscribe for tickets. These
lists are open for signatures, the
party signing agreeing to pay SIS for
double tickets, which insure him
admission to four concerts in the
Tabernacle. This makes the price
only 81 for each ticket, which is
wonderfully reasonable considering
the rare treat which a sum compar.
atively 80 trifling ensures. Already
a great many signatures have been
obtained, and as a knowledge of the
colossal affair becomes more widely
circulated, there is developed q
steady increasing desire to contri.
butte towards the bringing here OF
Mr.. Thomas, his great orches
ira, and his renowned sotoists
and at the same time secure
a certainty of good seats for the
concert at such reasonable prices
1t has also been arranged that trains
giving special rates to those whit
desire to attend, will be run on thu
occasion.
The official announcement ap
pears elsewhere, and will undoubt
eddy be read with great deal O

Competitive Examinations as
a Test Of Brain-POWer.

The present is an age of COMPETE
tive examinations, yet these afford
but an imperfect test of brain-pOWer;
for, after a time, competitive exam
nations become less and less eff
cient as true tests of intelliger ee,
and sink into sort of official rou-
tine. AS examples, we will take the
following cases: Brown is the son
Of an Indian officer, who died when
his boy was ten years old, and left
his widow badly off. Young Brown
is intended for the ROYAL Military
Acadamy, WoOlwich; but his moth
er's means do not enable her to send
him to frst-class "crammer's," so
he has to sit beneath the average
schOOlmaster. He works hard and
thinks a great deal, and gains fair
knowledge Of the subjects he is re-
Guired to learn. He goes up to the
competitive examination at Wool
wich, and finds each question 80
complicated that he is utterly puz-
zled; and. when the results of the
examination are made known,
Brown is nearly last on the list.
On the other hand, Smith is the
son Of a wealthy tradesman who
wishes his son to enter as cadet at
Woolwieh. Young Smith is sent
early in life to a successful "cram-
meT's," to be fattened with knowl-
edge as turkeys are crammed for
Christmas. The crammer does not
confine his attention to teaching his
pupils; but he watches the exam
inatiOn papers set at Wool witch, and
he finds that the examiners have
each a peculiar fad and set their
questions in a sort of rotation.
He looks carefully over these, and
he forms kind Of estimate of toe
questions which are likely to DO
set at any particular examination.
He therefore trains his pupils for
these questions, and is often so sue
Cessfui in his predictions that at
least half the questions have been
worked out of these pupils a week
before the examination; and this
result is obtained without any col
fusion between the crammer and the
examiner. On one occasion that
we know of, seven questions out of
a paper of thirteen were predicted
as "due;" and the pupils cORse-
quently of this crammer were most
| successful at this competitive
] Young Smith is thus trained, and

that the curtain had to be rung up
