WHAT might be styled the final termination

hv the death of the divorced Mrs. Christiancy at
Brooklyn, New York. The story was a sad but
NOT unnatural one. An attractive young
lady in one of the departments at

old enough to be her father. 1t was regarded,
from the young lady's stand point, as great

that he had temporary twinge OF love. II any

The happy after thought of providing
n civil gov eminent for Alaska is likely to
become g congressional craze. In the
senate, bills have been introduced by Har-
rison OF Indiana, Miller of California AID
Platt of Copnecticut, and VIM. Walter
Phelps of New Jersey has dumped a simi-
lar proposition into the great bill-box of
the House. For a wonder it is not pro
posed to thrust complicated government
machine en- that remote province. Sitka
is to be the capital. The proposed Offices
are Governor, one District Judge with an
attorney, clerk and marshal, four commits
sioaers who shall act as Justices of tie
Peace in four different sections of the
district, and the laws of Oregon are the
proposed code for Alaska. No land laws
are at present deemed practical, but the
secretary of the Interior is charged with
the duty of ascer tanning what measures
will be the most just to all concerned.
Education is provided for through the es-
tablishment of elementary and manual
labor schools. These are the general fsa-
lures of all the bills introduced, though of
course they vary in some immaterial de-
tails.

1t was ono Of those foolish, worldly matches
which are not uncommon but almost uniformly
disastrous. If Senator Christisncy had been in
poor and private station the young lady would
never have made the lliance. She mar
ried for the supposed position and not
for affection, and most bitterly
has she paid the penalty. Broken in health and
driven to insanity by her troubles, death has
kindly relieved her from further marital COM
plication. The coarse and brutal Christiancy
still lives, but has been driven in disgrace into
private life, and the whole affair ought to point
a moral and warning, espe tally to young

1t is only one in thousand which does not
prove disastrous to both parties.

To Me Editor of tue Ne,cs This is a city of some 35,OOO inhabitants and is connected with the principal points by five railroads. There has been no lack of amusements and churches of all faiths and creeds are found here. One resort which is of special interest to yis- itors is the armory and adjacent build ings, owned and controlled by the Unit ed States government A squad of sol diers is kept here constantly and to pass through the several buildings one is re- quired to procure written permit from one of the officials. From the observa- tory in the arsenal fine view of the whole city and suburbs may be obtain ed. The buildings and park cover a tract of 75 acres.
 One of the wealthiest and oldest con- gregations in the city is the First Con- gregational church on Court square, which was founded in 1637 and is under the pastoral charge of Rev E. P. Ter hume. His wife is the gifted authoress who has written many volumes under the familiar nom de plume of Marion Harland.
