Guthrie, o. T., July 80. Among the
many important cases decided at the
present sitting of the Territorial Su-
preme Court is the Irwin divorce case
from Saltwater, Payne county, in
which the Court, Justice Daley writ
ing an opinion, reafiirmed its former
opinion denying that probate justices
had jurisdiction in divorce cases after
August, 1891, and declaring all divorces
SO granted null and void, and any sub
sequent marriage Of the parties biga-
nous. vi
Ever since the original decision Of
the Supreme Court excitement has pre-
vailed among those persons who secured
probate court DEGREES. The majority
of these persons come from the East
and they are making haste to renew
divorce proceedings in the district
court. But many prominent Divorces,
after receiving matrimonial freedom
from the probate judges, failed to re-
turn and were married. Hence they
are subject to arrest at any time on the
charge of bigamy.
The last Legislature passed bill
legalizing all probate court divorces,
but Congress failed to ratify the meas
ure and it is consequently invalid.
Among the most prominent people
who are affected by the latest ruling of
the Supreme Court are Chester o. De-
pew, now of New Hampshire, who came
here with Mrs. Hettie Farnsworth.
Both secued DEGREES and two weeks
later were married in Kansas and re-
turned East; John Brown, broker of
Pittsburg; John Carter, newspaper
man of Streator, ILL.,, Mrs. Anna G.
Whitney Of New York, and Mrs. Lucy
Beal, prominent society lady of Bel.

Among those now in the territory for
divorce purposes are G. f. Beach, a
lawhook writer of New York City; j.
G.. Cole, banker of Windsor, VT. +; H.
W.. Steel, Pittsburg photographer,
and others.

Who can weigh the light that lies
IN the heaven OF his eyes?
Who can weigh his sunny smileBD
Or his sweetly winsome wiles?
Who can estimate the worth

Dlmples playing hide and seek
In his round and rosy cheek?
Who can know the hopes and fears

Who can weigh the prayers expressed
For the loved one at her breast2
Who can tell the fathers JOY
Wrapped within that baby boy2
How much does the baby weigh,

Tire PUnctured by a Snake.

The other day bicycle rider was
coasting down a hill at Pulaski, in the
western part of Pennsylvania. He saw
a big snake lying directly in his path.
The motions Of the snake confused the
bicyclist, and he was compelled to run
over it. AS the front wheel struck the
serpent his fangs shot out, and the BIZ
cyclist had not gone far, so he says,
when the front tire collapsed. An ex-
animation disclosed the fact that the
snakes fangs had punctured the tire.
A Middlesex physician examined the
snake, which the young man considered
a trophy, and lent corroboration to the
story by discovering minute particles
of vulcanized rubber in the teeth.

are funnily explained: Dust is mud,

fishes wings; stars are the moons eggs;
circumference is distance around the

INSTINCT OF BIRDS.
In Their Own Way Our Feathered Friends
Are Real Philosophers.


Some wonderful facts about the in
stinct of birds have been observed by
naturalists. The oriole, for example,
has fondness for bright colors, and
vet prudence leads the little creature
in choosing its nest to select the least
conspicuous hues. He also shows arch
itectural skill in attaching string to
his hanging nest and fastening it Sc
curely by a number of turns and a
knot to branch above.
Birds also show progressive spirit.
Since the introduction of British man
ufactures they use sewing thread and
ravelings from cloths.
In the districts Of Switzerland where
watches are made, the wagtails have
learned to build their nests of the fine
steel shavings. Sparrows, which usual
ly build in the chinks of walls or under
roofs, If forced to construct their nests
in trees or any unsheltered spot, cover
them with a sort of hood to keep out
the rain.
