BARONESS WAS DECEIVED,
hut She Gets Divorce from the Bogus
Heir to tho Hawaiian Throne.

London. Nov. 3-The divorce case OF
Wilcox agt. Wilcox, which has been
decided at Tunin, Italy, in favor OF
the wife. is considered Of great import
ance as It creates q precedent Robert
Wt1cox, the respondent, Is the Hawai-
ian revolutionary leader, who was re-
Gently sentenced 20 death for his con-
nect.on with the Royalist movement
against the Hawaiian republic.
His now divorced wife Is the Bar
oness Gina 'Sobrera. who is well-known
in Italy under the pseudonym of MAN
tea" She Is q brilliant writer and be-
longs to a distinguished family of
Piedmont. Her mother was a member
of the prlnceQy family Of Colonna di
Stigl.ano. The Baroness met Wilcox In
Turin, whittier he had been sent by
the government of the Hawaiian Is.
lands for the purpose of studying mill
tary tactics. He was a men of fine
presence and spent money freely.
He declared that he was the heir to
the throne of Hawaii, and in other
ways deluded people into the belief
that he was a person of some import
ance. The baroness was deeply i'm
pressed by the man and his stories, and
soon they became betrothed. The bar
oness obtained the consent of her fam
lily to the betrothal, and the wedding
lF1at followed in due course was a
great society affair Many magnificent
presents were received, including one
that was ostenslbly sent by the king
of the Hawaiian Islands.
Some time after the wedding wilcox
returned to Hawaii, accompanied by
his wife. Upon their arrival there the
baroness was greatly surprised and
rt.n 90 Iao ha 1,av
stead of being the heir to the throne,
was simply one of the many half
breeds of the islands. She discovered
that he was the son Of white man, q
carpenter, by a Kanaka woman. When
Wilcox found that his duplicity had
been discovered ne feared that his wife
would leave and denounce him. He
therefore kept her under lock and key
and i'll treated her in other ways.
At the beginning Of 1895 Wilcox tried
to foment revolution against the re-
public, was arrested, tried by court
martial and sentenced to death, which
sentence was subsequently commuted
to Imprisonment for thirty-five years
The baroness, after a series of roman
tic adventures, succeeded in making
her way back to Italy. where proceed
ings were begun to bring about disso-
luton of the marriage.
The church readily gave its consent
to the divorce. as Wilcox was not a
Catholic and a dispensation had not
been asked for the marriage from
the religious authorities. Greater diff
Guilty was met with in the civil courts,
as there is no divorce law in Italy. The
Italian law only annuls marriages In
cases of mistaken identity. The court
has now for the first time annulled a
marriage on the ground that one Of the
parties to It Is detriment to society,
and assumed titles and q position that
did not belong to him.

Let It then be affirmed that the essen
tial fact in true worship Is a heart rightly
affected toward God. Any form Of wor-
ship that interferes with the souls ap-
proach to God must be injurious to ones
spiritual health. Such form OF religious
worship Is unscriptural. and. therefore, 1t
must be un-Christian and ought to be
avoided.
An Image All May Worship.
The worship OF God! Do We all realize
what this means? Do we all know what
II Is to worship God in spirit and in truth?
We criticise others. but how Is 1t with our
selves? Do we see Coos image in the per-
son and in the work of Jesus Christ? Our
Savior, Jesus Christ, is the express image
OF Gods person, and this is an image we
all ought to worship. We,can never wor-
ship Christ too frequently nor too de-
voutly. Have we, in the past, given unto
Him the homage of our hearts, and has
He that homage now?
There Is rich promise and a rich re-
ward attached 10 this commandment.
Those who love God and keep His COM
mandments are precious in his sight. He
GRAFTON to generation. Our God Is a jeal-
Gus God. He is jealous for the honor Of
His name and for the purity of His wor-
ship. He knows that what men love the
most. that Is their god.
He knows, too. that we are so const-
tuted that We are certain to become more
and more like unto the object Of our wor-
ship. The stream can never rise higher
than Its source. and If we worship any
object lower than God We are idolaters.
We, therefore. ought to be jealous for
Gods honor and glory. and we ought ever
more to worship Him with a sincere and
loving heart

SECOND COMMANDMENT.
Thnt Was tho Subject of Rev. DR.. Nc
IcOd's Discourse Last Night.

That Was tho Subject OF Rev. DR.. NC.
IcOd's Discourse Last Night.
Rev. James Mcleod delivered the
second sermon Of the series on the ten
command ents at the First Presby-
terrain c-+sch last night He spoke on
the second commandment. taking his
text from Exodus, XXX, 4-6:
Thou shalt not make unto thee any
craven image. or any likeness OF anything
that Is in heaven s5ove or that Is in tho
earth beneath. or that Is In the water un-
der the earth.
Thou shalt not bow down thyself to
them, nor serve them: for the Lord thy
God am jealous God, visiting the ini-
guilty Of the fathers upon the children
unto the third and fourth generation Of
them that hate me.
And showing mercy unto thousands of
them that love me and keep my command
ments.
The reverend speaker said that some
very excellent people have greatly mis-
understood the spirit of this command
ment. Continuing. the speaker said:
1t Is both philosophically and historical
ly true that the use Of images in worship
has tendency to dethrone God and to
degrade man. Hence the reason for this
commandment of the decalogue is not at
all arbitrary; on the contrary. God gave
this part Of His moral law in order that
the purity as well as the pirituality Of
t1IS may NC picscTNcu. he IOTm
of divine worship, as well as Its object is
of great Importance. We ought to make
note Of this. for. In these days and in this
land, religious worship has assumed many
forms. The true w0rshipper Is one who
worships God In spirit and in truth, for the
Father seeketh such to worship Him.
A Fierce Hattie. Ground.
For centuries the mode of divine wor-
ship has been a fierce battle ground. II
has been the occasion Of many hot de-
bate. Losing sight of the real object of
worship, men have fought about its form.
1 dare say that more books have been
written and more sermons have been
preached about forms Of worship than any
one could read In a long lifetime. Is Il not
true that the various evangelical churches
Of today dtffer far more widely in respect
tn their forms Of worship than they do in
respect of their doctrinal beliefs?
IL IL true that Calvanism and Arminian-
ism are wide apart in respect OF some
quite Interesting but non-essential points
of doctrine? But these two systems of
doctrine do not differ as widely az our
Simple form Of devotion differs from the
gaudy ceremonials Of extreme high
Churchism. Even among Protestants.
there are many who seem to glory In their
forms Of worship far more than they
e!ory in the fact and object Of worship.
They forget that. "'Tis mad idolatry TO
the service srsatsr than the God"
