Wives Have the Hest of 1t.

70 the Editor:
Separations and divorces are lamentably on the
increase The causes are various but 1t seems
to me ,rGt the royt OF the evil lies in the fact
that tho wife has all the advantage. l am no
cynic but from my personal observations / can
safely say that there thousands OF husbands
in this city alone who would give anything to
be single again. Why? Because the absurd
customs OF our marriage institution make the
husband a martyr and a slave. He is the money
maker the supporter Of the household, and the
burden OF it's cares and sorrows rest on his
shoulders. While he Is working hard all day the
wife is at home free to do she peases. II rne
desires to go out shopping with her mother She
can do so; II she wants to pay visits no one
will say her nay; II she wants to go to the
matinee there is no objection. On the other hand.
when the husbands duties to his business cease
for the day his duty to his wife begins After
coming home tired out his wife demands that
he give his spare time to her. He may have
a desire to 10 out for a little recreation, to see
some friend to visit his club, or to have q
quiet game with the boys; but there is where
his better half steps In and demands that his
place Is by her side" She forgets the fact
that she has had all the day to herself and that
her husband requires some recreation, too This
Is the beginning OF the trouble.

THE TIGER tanned FOR ONCE.

1t is another evidence of Senator HIS
bravery that he has defled Tammany
and thwarted Its attempt to prevent
the printing OF the names Of the regu-
lar Democratic candidates for State
Offices at the head OF the State Democ-
racy's local ticket
Every good citizen will wish that so
courageous an act might result in an
increased vote for Hill. but the prospect
OF such result is scarcely encouraging.
The party machinery, and to n
great extent the election machin-
cry in this city is entirely

ing his name on the State Democracy
ticket, Tammany will see that he loses

fraudulent counting in precincts where
Tammany controls the boards by trades
with Republicans and by other devices
familiar To such adopts in electoral
manipulation as Tammany's district
captains. Tammany will see that Hilrs
defiance of, its will is amply avenged.
Probably Senator HIN is fully aware
OF this. and took the action he did know
ing it. II SO. so much the more credit
to his pluck.
He will have. at any rate, the salts
faction of knowing that for once the
Tammany tiger has met its master. and
for the political lion tanner, the triumph
OF having once cowed that rampant
beast is, at least. a partial recompense
for the inconvenience of being subse-

LARGE REGISTRATION.

Yesterdays registration In this city
was not quite up to the standard OF the
first day. Still II was far ahead of any
year. except 1892, for five years past.
1t fell nearly ten thousand behind 1892,
but the total for the two days Is still
ahead OF the last Presidential year.
The number is 2O2, 749 this year. against
2O2. 497 in 1892.
In Brooklyn the result is similar
While yesterdays registration fell a
little short OF the second day of 1882,
the total of the two days IL nearly two
thousand larger than in the Presden-
tial year.
The result indicates great interest in
the election and a heavy vote.
