There Is growing feeling that a balance

So many pleasantries and satires have been
aimed for years at Chicago as the site of the
most facile divorce mill in the world that most
people have ceased to look for anything new in
that quarter. A decision yesterday, however,
got rid of an obstacle upon which much stress
has been laid heretofore, and thereby in
creased the ease of the sundering operation
for many future applicants. The rule which
has been so strictly enforced, and evaded only
at the risk of prosecution for perjury, to wit.
that the complainant must have lived long
enough in Illinois to claim legal residence
and must appear in person, was thrown to the
winds. Nary Gottschalk. resident of Penn
sylyania, was.suing her husband for divorce.
She had never been in Chicago in her life.
Her husband, however, had been living there
for two years; but the court gave her decree
on the ground that her domicile lawfully fol-
lowed that of her husband, and that his deser-
ton OF her for two years was a sufficient
ground OF divorce, aside from any other con-
sideration- This reminder of the law of
dOmicile will straighten out many another
crooked case, where husband, with a view to
taking proceedings quietly against his wife,
steals away to Chicago and makes his home
there. The wife can forthwith take advantage
of that soon as she finds it out, and sue in
her turn without the need of changing her
home, and then it will be a race between the
counsel on the two sides to see which can first
catch the ear of the court and push through
the case of his client

When we read an estimate tina more than a
quarter million people quilted New York city
last Sunday to spend the day on the water. and
tnat the churches were almost deserted in con-
sequence, question naturally rises in the
mind whether it is the people or the churches
that are the more to be blamed for the failure
OF the two elements to connect Suppose some
clever preacher in New York were to raise a
fund among his congregation to transfer their
services on hot Sundays from the stationary
building on shore to boat chartered for the
day, which should sail out into the bay, or
little way up Long Island Sound, to a point
where the breeze was cool and the whole party
could drink in physical as well as spiritual re-
freshment, how many assertions would his
pews witness? How many weary workers in
the great city, who rarely get chance to in
hale the sea air unpolluted, and never go to
church, would flock to the boat, and be brought
under influences which could reach them
through no other channel? Indeed, il the
well-to-do congregations should not care to
make such an experiment on their own ac-
count, it is a question whether some Of the
many city missions, which make feeble strug-
gle among the poor and wretched, would not
find quiet Sunday sail a good investment,
even if in no other way than as a means of
keeping their humble charges for whole day
removed from the temptations which assail
them on land with uncommon force during the
heated season.

THE BRICK MAKERS SCALE.
II VIII be Presented TO the Manufacturers In
Few Days.

II Will be Presented TO the eManufacturers In
n Few Days,
The wage scale of the brick makers of this
city will be presented to the manufacturers
in few days, and will in all probability be
signed BY them without any trouble. At the
meeting of L. A. 2946, os which all the
brick makers are members, last Monday
evening, the scale was completed, and is as
follows: Burners, So per day; settlers 81 80;
molders, 81 so; machine men, or "strikers
off," 50 so; wheelers, 81; laborers, 81 75 per
day. All others are to be thu same as last
year.
James Hooper, of the Brickmakers' AS
sembly and ex-Worthy Foreman of d. 4.
No. 3, said yesterday in regard to the scale:
We do not anticipate any trouble about sign
ing the scale as it now stands. There is no use
asking for any advance as we know the manu-
facturers cannot afford to pay 1t at present.
Prices of brick are too low. but think they
will advance this summer. The cause of the
depressionsin the market is due to the fact of
SO many manufacturers in the business. In
order to get orders they have to cut each
others prices and in consequence hurt them.
selves. Some of them are now selling certain
grades of brick as low as S6 per thousand
When they touch this figure there is no money
IN the business They admit that it is our Or
ganization that keeps prices from going to
pieces. They have to pay the wages and cannot
go under S6. If they 90 they will lose money.

marian, Dies of Opium.
The following information came by Asso-
ciated Press from Philadelphia late last
night, and its subject will be of interest to
many of the older residents of Pittsburg
and vicinity:
CDR. Francis Girard, aged So years, a
well-known veterinary surgeon of this city,
died this morning from the effects of a
heavy dose of opium. His family dis
credited the theory of suicide. They say
the doctor had been addicted to the opium
habit for years, and think that by.mistake
he took an unusually large dose which
proved fatal.
"He was arrested on Monday, charged by
live stock insurance company with sub
ornation of perjury in inducing friend to
make affidavit to a false valuation of a
horse which he had insured with the COM
pany. 1t is thought by some that his arrest
preyed upon his mind, and that he took the
drug this morning with suicidal intent
CDR. Girard came to this country from
France when IS years old, and fora time re-
sided in Louisville. Later he moved to
Pittsburg, and after the war came to Phila-
delphia, where he lived ever since He was
the father of two sons and two daughters,
all of whom are grown. The doctor was
well connected"
