FLAGG Us. FLAGG.
At,er ThIrty-FIv- Years Of Welded Life, Mrs
Mary FIagg ASKS For Divorce.

Mary tlagg ASKS For a Divorce.
A divorce suit was filed in the Office Of
the clerk OF the district court yesterday
morning that astonished every one who
saw il. Il IS the same divorce suit that
was predicted in the columns OF the
EAGLE last Tuesday morning. It is en-
titled FIsgg -. Flagz.
The complainant l. Mary FlsCg and the
defendant Is Andrew Flagg. proprietor Of
the Globe machine shops OF this city
" hat makes The suit more astonishing is
the fact that they have been married nearly
thirty-fve years and the youngest OF their
seven children is now in her twentieth
year. The charges preferred against he
defendant are very serious and are a fine
illustration f the old saying that one-hslt
OF the world do not know now the other
half live
In addition to a divorce Mrs. Flagg asks
slimony to the amount of 5000, alleging
that her husband is worth at least SIS. 000
she also ASKS a restraining order to pre-
vent her husband from taking a certain
amount OF money out ofthe Citizens bank
or d.spOsing OF any Of his property during
the peudancy Of this suit. Dale & Wall
are her attorneys Judge Reed looked
over the papers yesterday aud promptly
granted the restraining order asked. aud
further issued an order directed 70 the de
PENDANT ordering him to PAY SO on the 10Th
day OF every month towards the support Of
the plaintiff until the case IS disposed OF
and also ordering him to deposit with the
court a certain sums that viii enable the
plaintiff TO prosecute the case against him.
The affair is the general subject OF regret
among those who know the family.

Self Placement.

Self conquest or remuneration Is but one
part OF the part OF the culture Of the
Will into spirituality. The other Is obedi-
ence Gelf-consecration, merging ones
self into the supreme self OF God and the
sublime service Of humanity. Self-eis-
cipiine In only a means to the higher end
Of reconciliation and oneness with the
will OF God. The grain Of wheat falls
and dies In the earth. that II may produce
q hundred fold, and he who spends his
life for God keepes Sc unto Immortality
Death has been. and always will be- the
price OF the attainment OF God; and the
service OF man, death Of all service and
nnslity. Who can say, who did say,
t'.kot my will, but thine be done?" He
who struggled with the last cup OF agony,
and who looked up to serve God and man
while the murderer was at the gate. Call
IL rcnunciation. call 1t stolcism, call 1t
death. the fact is there. that he who dies
to himself can only find rest in God or
reconciliation with man. This great law
or Pelf-effsceTnenS. poverty, suffering,
Death, II symbolized in the mystic cross
20 dear to you and dear to me- Chris
talns, shall you ever repudiate Calvary?
Oneness OF will and character Is the sub
lneet and most difficult unity with God.
