The old conflict between husband

usual result.

was vein OF natural deviliShnesS in
him." said F., that sought an outlet
at every opportunity. He seemed to take
pleasure in surprising people who did
not know him with foul remark or
some other indecency. 1t made very
little difference to him whether it was
lady he was talking to or not. In
fact, think he preferred to display
himself in this manner before women.
He wanted no one to think of him as a
divine, and chose this original manner
of showing how great mis- fall was. He
drank continuously, and OF the charges
made against him in the divorce suit
brought by his wife, no one who knew
him doubted their truth"

that earth has witnessed no more touch

plain to an audience of Norwegian
farmers the difference between ad val

rewarded when at the close one of his

Woman's The last decision
made by the late Chief
Suffrage. Justice JONES, of Wash
ington territory, was
one which held that under the constitu-
ton women were not citizens, and
therefore must be denied the right to
vote. His death occurred before public
discussion of the decision had CON-
menced. Eastern journals not yet
aware of his death and prominent fe
male suffrage advocates have made
themselves conSpicuuuSly ridiculous by
addressing him publicly and heaping
caustic criticism upon royal mind now
at rest. Some of the comments are in
tensely amusing, in view of what has
happened. Justice JONES possessed
mind of unusual breadth, and prejudice
would be least apt to influence him in
| making decision of such character.
