THE MARRIAGE RELATION.
Proper Condition for the Highest DeveI
opment of Humanity.

Proper Condition for the Highest Devel-
OPment of Humanity.
Make the marriage right and the Off
spring will tend to be right. Perhaps it
may be true that we need a new ideal
of the marriage relation. The old one
in which the woman promises to obey
the man is perishing visibly before our
modern eyes. Often she ought not to do
so, for a man may be fool or a brute.
And the theory adopted by many i'll
mated couples that marriage is a
discipline is too cynical to be either
true or attractive. The theory of easy
divorce and frequent change as remedy
for ordinary diSagreements has also Sc
Fious disadvantages, and is no sound
remedy. 1t is only poor refuge from
immediate suffering. But a new and,
perhaps, useful attitude may be gained
by looking upon matrimOny, as it is, in
truth, the only complete condition of hu-
mainly. In no other relation can man or
woman reach their highest develop
ment. No character is full till it COM
prises its opposite. The very diver
gencies at which each party frets are
the lacking necessities of its own nat
ure. Each would be partial and narrow
without the other, and the new motto
we may propose for matrimony is the
new word, development. Marriage is
development. If not quite happy, it is
still generously educational. If love
dies out from il, yet charity, wisdom,
tact and liberality of mind may remain
in it. Blind love may indeed remain
and leave the happy lovers without its
best effects, since even love may remain
narrow and selfish But the man who
has learned to comprehend the feminine
nature with. its delicate, sprightly,
graceful qualities in his own, and the
woman who has adopted something of
masculine independence, hbeTalitY and
courage into her constitution, will be
far better than the sole endowment nat
ure. would have given either to be alone.

The New Company for Harris
Theater-rhe Chimes Tonight.

The arrangements have been COM
pleted for the opening of the grand
opera company next Monday night at
Harris theater 1t is the Bellini Opera
company, which has been playing to
crowded houses in Chicago. In it are
such renowned singers as Miss Laura
Bellini, Miss Lila Blow. Lii Patti, Cora
Strong, Burt Haverly, Stuart Harold. L.
w. NOrcross and James G. Abdin. The
week opens with an original interpreta-
ton of Charles Lecocq's charming
comic opera, The Pretty Persian, or
the Hullah's Bride" This is really
"Oolah.' which had such run in New
York under another name: The Eng
lish libretto is by |. w. Norcross Jr.;,
and the lyrics by Matt G. Woodward.
This will be the first complete repre-
Sentation of the opera i'll this country.
There will be a chorus of fifty, which
will present the Oriental ballet diver
basement, including an East Indian
nautch dance by Miss Hattie Harvey,
one of the finest dancers in the country,
and the cocoanut fandango by chorus
of Persian slaves under twelve years of
age, in which they balance cOcoanutS on
their heads and shoulders.
The second day of the repertoire
week at the Harris was devoted to the
"Grand Duchess" both matinee and
evening. The attendance was very
large, especially in the evening. To-
night the "Chimes OF Normandy" will
be produced. The Merry War; will
be put on tomorrow matinee and ERA
DiaYolo" in the evening.

SUES HIS son.
Nj. w. Glenn Claims to Have Been
Defrauded.

M. W. Glenn, Of Duluth, at one time
quite prominent in Minneapolis city
politics, has begun an action in the dis
trict court against his son, John w.
Glenn, and the Hennepin County Cath
olic Building and Loan association.
The complaint alleges that young Glenn
so far broke the trust placed in him by
his father as to attempt to defraud him
out of a piece of real estate worth
$500. According to the document
filed, the father, desiring to pur-
chase home for his wife, and
placing implicit confidence in his
son, instruct him to purchase lot
from j. E. Wilson in John B. JackSon's
addition to Minneapolis, transferring
the title to Mrs. Glenn. The father
supplied the money in monthly pay
ments, the purchase being made
through the building and loan associa-
ton, and both he and his wife were of
the opinion that the property was in
her name. One the 9th of last July
Mrs. Glenn died, and her husband, on
endeavOring to take possession of the
property, found that the title was in his
sons name, and not in the name Of his
deceased wife, as he had supposed.
Young Glenn mortgaged the prop
erty for $1,000, drawing. as it
is supposed, some $1,000, and
he now holds the title in his own name.

THEY REMARKED.

E. l.. Danforth, Hotel Ardmore -
There are number of hackmen in
Minneapolis who make a business of
TObbing their passengers every time
that opportunity offers, in spite of the
city ordinances to prevent it. A fellow
charged little party of ladies and
children $3.50 to bring them up here
from the union depot the other day,
when he couldn't have collected half
the amount. Something ought to be
done so that it would not be necessary
to make a contract with a hackman to
get him to haul you block.
