AN organization of fifteen men and ''half that
number of women" as the published account
puts it, in New York city, have banded together
to hold out against the eating of meat. 1t does
not appear why it is necessary to organize to ac-
complish this but the members have voluntarily
done SO because they believe the eating of flesh
unwholesome, and ascribe to that practice the
general unhealthfulness of Americans above the
rest of the world. Let statute be enacted com
polling the eating of meat, and half the perverse
children of men would abjure it at once.

divorce suit followed, but a decree was not
granted. Three weeks ago Gentes saw his wife
lunching in a saloon and entered and spoke to
her. She threw her arms around his neck,
kissed him repeatedly, and reconciliation was at
once effected. They met every night for week,
during which time Mrs. Gentes expressed a de-
sire to return to her husband, but said her
mother would not consent. She. however, spoke
to her father, and he said he would be glad to
see them reunited Last Saturday Mrs Gentes,
her father and sisters accompanied Mr.. Gentes
on trip up the Hudson, and the young wife
said she was ready to return to her husband
He at once hired apartments, and the reunited
couple purchased furniture for their home.
Mrs. Gentes appeared delighted, and her hus-
band was fairly transported, and thought his
troubles were at last at an end. After the
household effects had been selected, Mrs. Gentes
gently suggested that she was in need of some
articles of wearing apparel Her husband pur-
chased every article she wanted on Wednesday
last, and the couple, upon separating, agreed to
take possession of their new quarters. Here the
singular perfdy of the woman manifested
itself, for on that same day she eloped with a
married man and has not since been seen.
