womA NY rIEU.S OF DIVORCE.

wOMAN'S FIEW'S OF DIVORCE
In the North American Review for
january. five American women write
"r divorce. They are Mary a. Liver
n,orr. Amelia +. Barr, Rose Terry
Cooke. Elizabeth Stuart Pht lps. and
Jennie June. Tley are wise and good
American woman, who always dis.
course of practical and social questions
with knowledge and sense. They say
nothing sensational in these articles.
The testimony they bear for the main
tainanco of the family institution is
eloquent, lind it is reassuring in these
days Of errMtic and half Immoral argu-
n.ents about the Failure Of marriage"
These ladies are nearly or quite
unanimous in favoring divorce under
a0me circumstances. Four Of the FIVE
bslieve that there are several causes
sufficient to justify legal SEPARATION.
They would all permit the innocent
party to rsmarry. 1t is to be inferred
that under certain conditions most or
All at them would agree that the guilty
party might eventually remarry. They
would ask from society and from the
law y greater circumspection in per-
mitting marriage at all, justly holding
that wnwise and unsuitable marriages
.re the chief cause OF the frequency Of
divorces. They would not allow the
idea to obtain social currency that the
marriage tie is easily dissolved. They
commend the patience and sacrifice of
those rare people that seek che welfare
and good Of u conjugal partner who
has proven recreaDt and unworthy,
and do not ask release in the divorce
courts. The wife who stands by her
drunken husband may be far nob'er
woman than the one who escapes un.
pleasantness, painful responsibility, ~
even physical peril BY obtaining release
from the marital bond.

says leave upon the mind is the true

a yEAED QUESTION.

n Suit to he Entered to Determine Who
Shall Build Over Trout Fun.
OSomc time in July last the City Coun-
ell received an offer from ID. K. Bcalc
.& Co., for the purchase of the stream
known as Trout run, which had been
condemned by the city for sewer pur-
poses.
The matter was referred TO Il commit
tee composed OF The sewer committee of
the council and Thomas w. Miller, the
city solicitor, with power to act.
The stream in question runs diagon-
ally across the property of Paul Berl-
WITT, cutting lot belonging to the
latter in two When the committee
met they fixed the cost Of the right to
build over the stream at 500 This
price was communicated to both Bcrk-
WITT and Beal Sc Co.. but the committee
decided inasmuch as the stream cut
Berkwitzs property into two parts the
right to build over it should ineuuity
be offered first to Berkwitz at S76O.
ThcreupOn Beale & Co. declared that
city. and that if the property were put
up at auction they would rather run the
price up 81, 900 rather than miss sccur-
ing it.
At this stage of the case the commit
tee declined to assume the response
bility Of transferring the right to build
over the stream, which is now used as n
sewer. and reported their conslusion to
the Council
After discussion of the matter the
Council decided to put the right in
question up at auction, and advertise d
it for sale to the highest bidder, sale to
be made on the Goth instant.
Considering themselves wronged by
this action, Beale Sc Co. applied to Judge
Robertson for an injunction to prevent
the sale. The latter issued Il rule upon
the city to show cause why an iniunc-
zion should not be issued. to be heard to-
day.
The position taken by Beale & Co. is
based upon the fact that the proposition
to them was specific, in that it offered
to sell the right for $50, while it was
placed at S7GO to BcrkowitZ and thew
claim that it was auctioned by this act
after they had accepted the city's terms
in writing.

TO KEEP THE CITY CLEAN.
Sanitary Work Should Not be
Neglected
On Account of Cool Weather--Now is the
Time for General Cleaning of the
City-City Engineer Dunlap Getting up
Information for Mr.. Herring.

There is much room for tho improve
mcnt of the sanitary condition of the
city.
There is not as much danger from the
accumulation of filth now as in the sum-
mer months but filth should not be al
lowed to accumulate solely because the
cold weather temporarily prccludcs the
danger.
sewer system is the only permanent
way to improve the sanitary condition,
but there is much else that needs to be
done to keep the city clean.
In many places stagnant water is al
lowed to stand on the streets in thicllly
populated sections.
On Sixth avenue. west OF Franklin
street, i'll many places water is drained
from kitchen yards to the street. but
the cutters along the sides of the street
will not convey the filthy water away.
Consequently it stands in stagnant pools
at short intervals
This water should not be turned into
the streets if there is any possible way
to dispose of H.
The cutters along this street, as in
many other portions of the city, arc in
cleared of the trash and dirt that has
filed them, as excavations are not
dangerous at this season Of the year.
prominent physician said to a
TINES reporter that during the winter is
the best time for a general cleaning up.
Cutters along the sides of tho streets
should he cleared all over the city so
that water will not stand, that neccs-
sary excavations for drainage should be
made, and that pools and low places
should be filled.
There is much surface work." said
the physician, lin the way of general
cleaning up that should be done. and
we ought to meet warm weather with Il
thoroughly clean city. The only way
to do this is to have Il thorough clean
ing during the winter"
There has been considerable COM
plant recently about accommodating
filth. and the sanitary inspector, in his
report. said that the scayengcr work
was not well done.
Dr. Luck. of tho board of health
said to the reporter that there was once
an ordnance requiring the drainage OF
waste water from residences into pits
and lie thought that ii would he we'll to
rcinstatc this ordinance until com
plete sewer system can be provided

Mr.. Dunlap has also force of cngi-
nccrs at work getting up other necessary
information for Mr.. Herring, and this
work will also be completed at an carly
day.
information is to be furnished upon
