the victim Of the shooting. has showed signs
of improvement of late, and il is thought
will eventually recover.
Speaking of the shooting the Carver
county Free Press, shortly after the occur
renee and at a time when the wOman's recov-
cry was in doubt, said: ''Our opinion is that
the above is a deliberate, cold-blooded muir
der. Thorsbi induced his wife short time
ago to take out life insurance policy. and
he evidently thought that her death
would bring him the money. The man is q
thoroughbred scOundrel. and should re-
ceive the full penalty of the law. The
brutal murderer acts like a repentant sin
ner, and claims that the shooting is an acct
dent. We know the cat-like friendlineSs of
the man, with which he has covered his
tracks of former rascalities."

discovery by the census figures that over
fOur-tifths of the old soldiers reside in

Two or three ladies stood in one of the

the ladies watched him down the stairs and

talk of his record for kissing their sex.
Each expressed herself very plainly, and it
was the unanimous verdict that he didn't
look like ladies' man. ''Why. don't see
how any woman could endure it to have
him kiss her. He's a grizzly, homely.

the seeming falling OF N attendance III Pro 70
testant churches IN Boston was due largely
to the Increase of the Catholic population and
the increase, also, Of Hebrews. The rapid
growth OF Suburban cities, the bedrooms for
Boston. also took away thousands Of church
Roers from the city churches. High pew
rents were another bar TO large congregations

Rcrnlating Marriage.

Tie new Pennsylvania law regulating
marriages, to which illusions have FREE
quently been made, went into effect
Thursday. Prior to that time marriages
in that State were remarkably cheap. No
license, no notice, and almost nothing
else was required, except the momentary
or permanent consent Of the contracting
parties. Marriage was free and divorce
was also comparatively free, as it still is.
Now, Pennsylvania requires candidates
for matrimony 20 stand kind OF civil
service examination-not exactly accord
Ing to the competitive system, but they
must answer certain questions that bear
on the legal fitness of the parties 20 enter
into the marriage state. The examina-
ton papers are in the form OF applica
lions for license. Each of the parties
must state his or her age, birthplace, resi-
dence and occupations; whether there is
any relationship by blood or marriage
within the forbidden degrees; whether
there has been any previous marriage,
and if so, whether 1t was dissolved by
death or divorce, and if by divorce the
causes thereof must be stated. Minors
are required to furnish evidence OF the
consent Of parents or guardians.
II the candidates answer all the ques-
tlons satisfactorily, the Clerk Of the Or
phsa's Court analogous to the Ordinary
in Georgia is paid the sum Of 30 cents,
and license is issued. Thoy can then
be joined in the bonds Of wedlOck by any
Judge, minister, or Justice OF the Peace.
The impression In Pennsylvania seems
to be that the law is a good one. Minis
ters and magistrates just over the Della
ware also have the same impression. The
people Of the State named think 1t will be
the means OF preventing great many un-
lawful and unwise marriages. The Jer-
sey people think it will cause a great
many Gretna Greens to spring up on
their side Of the Delaware, where mar
rage 10 as free as the wind, for Of course
all the Pennsylvania lovers who cannot
pass the examination will not forego the
contamination Of their desires when they
can dodge the law by taking trip into
an adjoining State.
1t remains for the future to develop
what effect the law will have on the di-
vorce business. 1t will not prevent I'M
happy marriages, and it is doubtful
whether it will greatly diminish the
number Of such marriages, but 1t is a good
Jaw, because 1t is step in the right direc-
ton. Could the law be made strIcter
still, and all the States Of the Union adopt
similar laws relating to marriage and
divorce, it would be much better for the
country.
