BIARRIAGE AND DIVORCE.

Senator J. II. Kyle Of South Dakota,
who is a clergyman by profession as well
as statesman, las made up his mind that
tie Sixteenth Amendment to the Federal
Constitution shOnld be one providing for
uniform laws Of marriage and divorce
throughout the Union. II Is said that the
Senator received his inspiration from a
study Of the divorce colony Of Sioux Falls
He found in that colony some eco persons,
residents Of other States, who had come to
South Dakota to avail themselves of the
facilities its laws afford to sever the bond
matrimonial One difficulty tie Senator
viii have to encounter is that which pre-
served the Constitution free from. change
more than fifty years before the war and
more than twenty years since. That diff
Guilty has been fatal to several attempts to
amend the Constitution and certainly will
be to others. 1t is simply to get the Legisa-
lures Of three-fOurtbs Of the States to ratIfy
an amendment in the absence OF any over
shad0Wirg reason why il should be adopted.
Uniform laws # marriage and divorce are
certainly desirable. 1t is against the public
good that a man and woman should be
legally married in one State and gally free
10 marry in another. But DO one State can
impose its marriage or divorce law upon
another State The custom is to accept
marriage HAT would not be valid in one
State rs valid if il conforms 10 the law OF
the State in which the marriage ceremony
was perfsrn.ed. This custom Is the result
Of a general agreement that greater evils
would follow from a rule not 10 recognize

PHILOSOPHY on WAR.

People were surprised the other day when
ex- Senator ingalls, denounced the building
of a rational navy, saying that ships Of war
were only built to be taken or sunk In
this view he was merely repeating the re-
mark Of De Lesseps, who, referring to the
proposed erection of forts at the mouth Of
the Suez Canal, observed that forts invited
attacks, and were only constructed TO be
captured. The trouble with both these in
telligent statesmen is that they PROFOUND a
philosophy that is only applicable TO an
ideal millennium in which all nations shall
be governed by wisdom and mutual for.
bearance II is the natural perVerslty-the
pure cussedness of mankind which
renders forts aud frigates indispensable for
the preservation Of the peace. So long as
the cause continues 20 operate the effect
must endure.
cognate fallaey 20 this was expressed
by the British poet in the oft quoted lines
War is game
At which, were subjects wise,
Kings would not play at.
The implication is that wars are undertaken
for the qualification Of kingly ambition or
personal passion. and are reluctantly ac-
guessed in by the peoples they govern
That undoubtedly vas the case at one

IT BLAINE wITHDRAws?

There is possibly some truth in the Press
announcement that Mr.. Blaine will not be
The Republican candidate for the Pres!-
dency The Press is reputable RepuDli-
can paper and has not the motives to re-
move Mr.. Blaine from The political field
that certain Democratic contemporaries
have. The feeling has been growing IN Re
publican circles during the last year that
Mr.. Blaine would not again undertake the
labor and excitement Of an active political
campaign. This feeling has been admitted
with reluctance. as many Republicans nave
worked themselves into the belief that
Blaine was much the strongest candidate
the party could nominate. There are prob
abby more men ready to throw Jap their hats
and shout for jim Blame than for any
other man in the party The belief that lie
is the strongest aspiTaut I'D sight Is so gen
eral that if lie considered himself phy>i-
caily fit 20 be a candidate, he would have
little trouble In getting the nomination.

question arises as TO the best man TO take

period Of history. But it is very far from
being the case now In modern times it IS
usually the people who drag the sovereign
into a war, not the sovereign the people.
In OGr day mOnarchs know too well the cost
of war and its possible eyentualities to en-
bark in it if they can resist popular
pressure.
Take our own War Of the Rebellion,
Neither Mr.. Lincoln nor jefferson Davis de-
sired war. But the Shareholders fired the
Southern heart to pitch of fighting at all
hazards. and after the firing on Fort Sumter
no President could have withstOod the
Northern demand for a vigorous enforce
ment Of the national authority. The Franco
German war was to a considerable extent
the work Of the Paris pOpulaCe, which kept
bawing 4 Berlin, without knowing what
they wanted at Berlin Napoleon, 1t has
been said, was opposed to the war; his
prescIence revealed what it was going TO
cost. Again it was the masses of the British
people, gOaded to fury by exaggerated ac-
counts Of the massacre Of SinOpe, which
was no massacre at all, that drove the Brit
ish Government to declare war against Rus
STA without earthly reason or Justification
No one knew better than Lord John Rus
sell that there was no just cause for war,
but England plunged into it under popular
pressure.
An interesting paper has lately been writ
ten on this subject by NJ. Emile lola. 1t IS
really a stateSmanlike document, which is
the more remarkable as, with the exception
Of Disraeli, n0veIists have rarely shown ca
pacity to deal with public affairs. lola
says that war, like death, Is
dark necessity" Men phiosophize, and
indulge dreams Of universal brotherhood.
and the International Society denouuceS
declarations of war as crimes against
humanity; but the moment the foreigner
threatens the frontier the philosopher
shoulders his rifle, and the members OF
the International enlist in the ranks. Ad-
vauced thinkers proclaim that war IS

pet blast stirs the shudderiug air, and tie

PUZZLED THE DOCTORS.
For Over Thirty Years This Mans Esoph-
agus ria. Been Closed.



r. II. Allen, the florist at "a Church street,
has for over thirty years been a sufferer
from a most peculiar trouble and yet to-day
is well and in good health. His case is said
by physicians to be the only one Of its KIND
that has ever been known Of. and has by a
dozen or more eminent doctors been pro-
uounced ineXplicable and incurable.
When Mr.. Alien was a boy about
y years Of age the trouble first
came upon him in the following manner lie
was visiting friends in the country one
day, and as 1t was during the season when
harvest pears are ripe lie ate a great many.
A fter he had eaten quite q number he sud
denly began to feel that he could not swal-
low any mere, and that his stomach was
fun up 10 his throat, so to speak. He was
taken with a fit Of coughing and choking
and seemed to be unable to swallow any
thing. When he next tried 10 eat he
found that his food would not go
down into his stomach, and, after a
number Of attempts to eat, found
that the only way he could get his food to
pass down into his stomach was by drink
ing quantity Of water or some other LIQUID
very fast, and thus forcing his food down.
He had a good appetite and relished his
food. but he could only eat so much, and
then the valve which carries the food into
the stomach would fill up, and If he ate
more it prevented his breathing. A num-
Der Of physicians we're consulted and vari-
Gus treatments were tried, but all without
avail
The doctors were unable to explain the
trouble. Some said that it was due to par
aysis Of the stomach. On examination the
es0phagus was found 10 be entirely closed
up, and probe could only be gotten down
into the stomach by forcing il through the
obstruction. Mr.. Allen has lived and en-
j0yed good health for the last thirty years or
more. There are some hard substances
which he does not dare TO eat, as they will
not pass into his stomach under any cir
cumslances, but by a little care III his diet
he enjoys good health. He eats a good
meal and then drinks about pint of some
liquid very fast, and bv sheer will power
forces the food into his stomach which has
accumulated in the eSoUhagus. If he did
not do this his food would remain in the
esOpbagus for days and would not enter the
stomach at all. By all medical men Mr..
Aliens case is regarded as most remarkable,
and is said TO be a remarkable example Of
the power OF the Will over matter.

SHE HAD THE GRIP.
The Two Horned EhinOcerOs Given a Big
Horn of whisky and Ouinine.

New York special.
That the grip Is no respecter of persons
has long been conceded. Now the malady
has made its appearance among the animals
of the Central Park menagerie. The first
TO be taken i'll is the valuable two-horned
rhinOceros. 1t was feared on Thursday
that all was not well with the beast. She
took little interest in what was going on
around her. forgetting to notice how Mrs,
Hyena, who is her neXt-dO0r neighbor, was
getting on with her lately born triplets. and
even turning away from the prolfered pea-
nut On Friday Superintendent Conkln
was sure it was the grip. The rhinoceros
was Sneezlng frequently, had fits of
coughing, and was evidently suffering from
chills. When so valuable an animal as
the ThinocerOs, worth some thousands of
dollars, is i'll heroic measures must be taken
to save her life. DR.. COnklin was eouaI 10
the occasion and sent out for a quart of the
best whisky and measured out forty grains
Of quinine. A pint of warm water was
added TO the whisky and Qunine, and prof
fered to the animal in a pail. She drank
the medicine as If she liked it, not leaving
a drop, and evidently wanting more. IL
was, however, quite as much as was good
for her, for shortly afterwaTd she moved
about her cage IN an erTatic manner. and
seemed TO have an ambition TO pirouetie ON
, her foremost and largest horn, bur finally
lay down on her bed Of hay and silent

Ale Turned Into Iron Bitters.

A Utica brewer has a rather curious story
to tell Some time ago he was at work
steamng out barrels. The hose which ne
used was tipped with an iron pipe about
foot long. In some way the pipe slipped
from the hose into the barrel. 1t was not
removed and the barrel was filed with ale
ana sent from the brewery with the pipe
still in it. A few DAYS later one of their
best customers called them up by telephone
and asked if they had turned the brewery
into pharmacy. He had got the barrel
with the pipe in it, and the action Of the ale
on the iron had turned the usually paatabe
beverage into iron bitters, one glass of
which gave his customers such an appetite
that three men and boy could not keep
the freedmen counter supplied. The bar
rel was brought back to the brewery, and is
now kept as a special tap for policemen and
as an appetizer for tramps.
