The Supreme Court OF Minnesota has made
a ruling which may be considered as an extern
sion of the old doctrine of "caveat emptor,"
or, "let tho buyer beware" Six years after his
| marriage a citizen of the beautiful State of a
| Thousand Lakes, found that the wife of his
bosom was 4 confirmed kleptomaniac and had
been SO before his marriage, and that tho fact
was carefully concealed from him by her
friends and relatives at the time he was wooing
and winning her. He applied for dissolution
Of tho connubial bond on the ground that It
was fraud which Initiated the marriage. The
case finally reached the Supreme Court, which,
while admitting that the husband had been
deceived refused the decree of annulment,
because the husband should have informed
himself thoroughly in regard to his wife before
marrying her Then he took her for better or
for worse, and must stand to his bargain. Said
the Court:
"GenernlIy speaking concealment or deception
by one OF tbs parties In respect to traits defects
of character habits, temper. reputation, bodily
health and the like 10 sufficient ground for an
nulIng "a marriage. Tho parties must take tho
burden Of informing themselves by acquaintance
and satisfactory inquiry before entering Into CON
tract Of the first importance to themselves and to
society in general"
The decision seems TO us harsh and unjust
There is division of opinion among modlco.
jurists as to whether. kleptomania is really
disease or not But taking either view, it
seems clear that the man was entitled to di.
vorce. If kleptomania Is disease 1t is in
sanity, and insanity existing prior to marriage,
and concealed from the prospective husband, Is
good Cause for divorce in every State In the
Nation. If it Is not disease, then the husband
should DO given divorce on account of the in
corrigible viclousness OF his wife, No man or
woman should be compelled to live in marriage
with an inveterate thief.

PERvERsE MAIDS.

Brides.

They Persist I'm Becoming Polygamous
New YORK, Oct. 2-The authorities at
the barge Office used an immense
amount of moral suasion on thirty-two
young Mormon girls that arrived yester-
day on the steamer Wyoming, to induce
them to forego their intention of becom-
ing proselytes to the Mormon faith.
The girls were separated from the other
passengers as they landed, and placed in
= room by themselves. Three female
missionaries, from the Emigrant Girls
Home, went among them and tried to
convince them of the folly of the course
they proposed to follow. One of the
girls, Karen Sylvestersen by name, who
acted as spokeswoman for the party,
frankly acknowledged that they were all
willing to be one of seven or eight wives,
and were fully aware of the principles of
Mormonism. The girls are all young,
and some of them remarkably pretty.
The attempt of the missionaries to in
fluence them proved an utter failure.
The entire party will proceed on their
journey tomorrow. The party comprises
all told 202 souls, of whom thirty-two
are children. Among the lot is mar
rled English woman, who left her hus-
band in England to take up the Nor
mon faith.

T1FFN, Ohio, Oct. PA bold express
robbery was committed on a Cincinnati,
Sandusky & Cleveland train, south of
here, this morning. The Adams express
messenger was held up by masked men,
armed with revolvers. The safe was
raneacked. The loss is supposed to be
several thousand dollars. The robbers
escaped.
Immediately after the train left Ur-
bana, two masked men with revolvers
entered the express car and compelled
the Adams express messenger, A. L..
Scudder, to throw up mis- hands. They They
tied him securely and robbed the safe
of packages containing several thousand
dollars and other valuables. While at
work brakeman attempted to enter
the car, and was shot at by one OF the
robbers. He gave the alarm and the
train sslowed up to give an opportunity
to capture the robbers, but they jumped
from the train just as it was entering
West Liberty, and disappeared in the
darkness.
Messenger Scudder was bound in his

Scudder before leaving the car. Placing
q revolver at his head he pulled the
trigger, but the cartridge failed to ex-
plOde. The other robber then pre-
vented him from trying it again.
When the train pulled out of West
Liberty the two scoundrels again got
aboard, holding the entire crew at bay.
Scudder, who had been released. opened
fire on them with pistol from his car
door, but was compelled to retreat. The
robbers kept on board until Belle Fon-
tame was reached, when they again
jumped off and disappeared. Officers at
Belle Fontaine are searching for them.
The superintendent of the Adams
Express company says the robbers Sc
cured about $500.

WASHINGTON, Oct 2.-Acting Secretary

England, by the secretary of the cham
Der of commerce of that city, concern
ing the manufacturers additional state
ment required under the customs adj
ministrative act, 1t appears that the
form of such statement (No. 17D, pre-
scribed by the treasury department,
provides for declaration by the manu-
facturers of merchandise consigned for
sale by him or his account, to a person
in the United States, showing the actual
cost Of production and shipment, item
lied.
The London chamber of commerce de-
sires that in lieu of the above declara-
ton that our customs authorities accept
the following declaration: "For trade
reasons / decline to give my cons:gnee
to give the same to the United States
consul-general for his personal salts
faction"
1t was represented to the consul-gen-
eral by consignors that it was unfair to
require them to give consignees infor-
nation as to the cost of production and
all the elements entering into such cost,
and that it is destructive of the natural
laws of commerce and trade for them to
do it.
In his letter General Batcheller says !:
GAS the form of declaration prescribed
by your (state) department is confined
to the particulars required by section s
of the act of June 10, 1890, to be speci-
fed in an official statement of the affairs
and as under the terms of that law,
such statement must be presented to
the collector of customs by the person,
agent, partner or consignor who must
make the declaration prescribed by sec
ton of the same act, that the invoice
on which he makes the entry contains
also just as faithful an account of all
cost of finishing said goods, etc., this
department is of the opinion that the
information as to the actual cost can
not consistently, with the provisions of
the law cited, be withheld from the
consignee and made the subject of con-
fidential communication from the con-
signor to the consuls, and that no other
form of statement than said form III
can be accepted as satisfying the re-
quirements of the law"

ALBUQUERQUE, N. NJ, Oct. 2.-Several
companies of cavalry have now been out
after the renegade Apaches about two
weeks, but not an Indian has been capt
ured, though fresh crimes are being re-
ported. The latest from the Black range
country which has been their rendezvous
in every outbreak for years, is that the
bodies of two miners were found day
before yesterday, riddled with bullets,
and their scalps taken. The people Of
the south are much excited, and if the
government does not put stop to these
annual raids of few renegades, it is
stated they will organize themselves into
companies and exterminate the say.

WASHINGTON, Oct. at appears that
an important omission was made in
the tariff bill, as enrolled and signed.
Section 80 of the internal revenue sche-

senate. and subsequently restored by
the conference, was completely omitted
in enrolment. This section provides
for the allowance OF drawback on

snuff, held in unbroken packages in the
hands of manufacturers at the date when
the reduction goes into effect At this
date, January LIST next, however, there
will still be ample opportunity for con-
gress at the next session to correct the
error by supplemental legislation.
