GOOD TO TRY

A branch of the Illinois system of
treating dipsomania, as disease to be
eradicated from the system by the in
fusion of an antidote and a few access
series, has been established at Des
Moines, and promises to accomplish
good work. There is no reason why the
method may not be adopted in the hos
pitfalls or refOrmatory institutions under
public control in any city. The chief
medicament is chloride of gold, and
there is not understood to be any secret
i'll its preparation or use. The evidence
is conclusive that the worst cases can be
cured in few days. To release man
who is slave to the alcoholic appetite
and put him out of danger of 4 relapse,
except by deliberate and vicious pur-
pose. is certainly worth some effort.
Moral agencies are all right, but rarely
remove the cause of the inebriety, The
craving still remains, as a rule.

A JUST JUDGE.

1t is shown by statistics that in Min
neSota the past ten years more than
per cent of the marriages end in di-
vorce court. Out Of every hundred mar
riageS five or more will come to grief or
are fatal mistakes. The laws in this
state have not been such as TO allure
those in other sections who are in pur-
suit of a divorce. They usually go to
Chicago or Fargo when the home article
Is difficult or unsatisfactory There are
unqueStionably cases where it is great
hardship to compel parties to remain in
the marriage association; but Judge
MCCONNELL, at Fargo. the past week,
greatly discouraged the practice of
transferring difficult cases to that

try to obtain divorce from her

station and wealth, was brought to grief.
and lesson administered in strong
language by the court. An attempt in
New York had been abandoned from
lack of cause, although high-priced de-
tectlVeS and witnesses had been en-
ployed to blacken the character of the
young man. Fargo was then made the
scene for the attempt, and ignOminiouS
Failure enSued. In this case there is no
reason to believe that trouble would
have come to the young couple, had it
not been fOmented by the ariStOcratic
Father, and his hands would not have
touched the domestic fabric in an I'M
friendly way had it not been for his
confidence in effecting a divorce. 1t is
worthy of special mention that Judge
MCCONNELL has broken into the
legendary practices and discouraged
lucrative business. He has also as
s3rted that the law shall not be made
fool OF by nominal residence for di-
vorce purposes. He has virtually put
his influence in opposition to the di-
vorce business, and merits a credit
mark. If separation were allowed with
put divorce more frequently, or the Of
Tending party were prohibited from mar
rylng again, there would be vast re-
duction in the number of divorces.

FORTUNATE FOR THEM.

Now that it appears that Italy did
not mean to be understood to have any
unfriendly feeling toward this country
in the little spasm about New Orleans,
1T is easy to brace up and remember that
there was no nervous feeling over the
absurd and fantastic picture of enOr-
nous and terrifying Italian war ships

tie boats and small guns on this side,
and throwing at an undSSailabe distance
hot and heavy iron into the coast cities
in very annoying way, Italy has i'm
posing-loOking battle ships and guns
that in theory suggest full-working
volcano with earthquakes thrown in.
But the modern navy is only theory.
1t has yet to pass the fiery ordeal There
has hardly been an essay in actual
service of the present engineery of the
navy of any great power. The par
tial test when the British fleet bonn
barded Alexandria was only fairly sat
isfactory in weight of metal and pene-
tration. The incidents in Chill and
Peru do not afford any solution of ma
terial features of the problem. The
reviews had of the English naval forces
revealed alarming possibilities, and
threw hosts of beautiful theories into
confusion. The leviathans were unruly,
and receut tests have led to doubt as to
whether the greatest damage would be
to the enemy or the assailants. The big
ships of Italy might succeed IN getting
over to this side, but would have small
chance to see their native land again.
If they came within annoying dis tance

He was born Feb. ,, 1851, and came to
this country in 1856. After passing
year in the wicked city of Chicago he
came to st. Paul. Those who think he
never did any hard work should have
seen him making boilers in his early
manhood. Yes, he was bOilermaker
for many years. and the idea of walking
a beat never entered his head until
Mayor Rice picked him out for ''cop-

man commanded marked attention, and
Mayor Smith rewarded him with pro-
motion in 1889. He is now a sergeant

prints the following in his April publ
cation:
THE power of the press is often ey-
aggerated in the minds of the men who
control newspapers. A newspaper is
very strong when it voices a dominant
public sentiment, but when it tries to
stem the current of settled and reason
able public opinion, it is sometimes of
no more force than all Individual has
! under the same circumstances. There
was an instance of this fact lately in st.
Paul. A or eat daily newspaper became
hostile to The Press club a year
ago because the club failed to
elect one of its editors president.
,The club survived. nevertheless. and
last month arranged benefit perform
ance at the Metropolitan Opera house
to raise money for furnishing its rooms.
The great newspaper refused to men
ation the club or its benefit in any way
awhatever. 1t was as silent as the grave
on tue subject. All the theater mana
gers and actors in the Twin Cities came
forward with cordial offers of assist
ance. The benefit was q great event in
both the social and amusement worlds
In spite of the Surly silence Of the great
newspaper the house was thronged with
the best people in st. Paul. and the re-
ceipts were phenomenal. Next day the
great newspaper failed 10 let Is readers
know that any such event had taken
place. Such of its readers as were pres

cause this particular piece OF local news

A WOMAN in Philadelphia applies for
divorce on the ground that she was
hypnotized into matrimony. If that is
ground for divorce few marriages would
he secure. In all love cases it is to be
presumed that one or the other or both
parties are under the influence. Love
is a sentimental phase of hypnotism.

cent. of the standar rates: thai the agree
ment be amended SO that no application of
relief of the competing lines in reducing
this agreed basis for tourists rates within
the territory of the association shall be
considered by the chairman without the
unanimous consent of all the members; that
the rate from Chicago to st. Paul or Min
neapolis and return shall not be less
than $50, and from Milwaukee to those
points and return not less than SIS; that no
rate shall be made from Missouri river
points through Chicago to points east or
north, or by any rates to Wisconsin points
less than 1926. 1t was further resolved that
for the annual convention of the National
Educational association at Toronto in July
a rate of one fare for the round trip should
he charged. plus 81, by way of the direct
route to Toronto only, and not by way of
Buffalo or Niagara Falls. In short, the
association yielded every point urged by
the Alton. A committee was appointed to
recommend a form of tickets for use during

RECORD OF THE COURTS.
Alfred j. Urlin Wins His Damage
Case Against the Northern
Pacific.
The Minah Consolidated Company
Case in the Hands OF
the Jury.
Appeals to BE Heard Before tho Supreme
Conrt--The Montana Trust Com
pany Organized.

Alfred j. Urlin, of Missouln, won his case
against the Northern Pacific Railrond com
pany yesterday, and got a verdict for s 1870
damages. The jury also oundt that the ac-
cident in which Urlin was injured was
caused by rotten ties. In addition to this,
they found that tho place where the derail-
ment took place WAS unsafe for the passage
of trains and that the utmost care was not
exercised by the employees who had charge
of the track where the derailment occurred.
Cullen, Sanders and Shelton, for the rail-
road company, gave notice OF their inten-
ton to move for a new trial. The acci-
dent in which Urlin was injured occurred
in July, 1888, near Gold creek, in Deer
Lodge county. He was a passenger
ON the east-bound express which was de-
rallied by reason of the rails spreading.
Several cars were tumbled into the ditch
and a number of passengers more or less
injured. Urlin had three ribs broken and
received other internal injuries. Among
the passengers were the members of the
Riley u Woods Speciality company. One
of them was Mrs. Adele Wilson, a hand
some woman, whose face wa badly dis
figured, which caused her to leave the stage.
Damage suits, aRgregating $4,000, were
t brought by several of the company in
Chicago, which are thought to be pending.
| At various times efforts were made to COM
/ promise the cases. Urlin brought his suit
for 500, 600 damages.
