world who have terminated their
matrimonial lives in the divorce
courts.
The YZnaga separation will be
historical one in the annals of So
ciety, and it recalls many similar
cases in recent and older years. That
the divorce colony of swaggerdom
has been given great impetus and
has grown to immense proportions
within a comparatively short time
is glaringly obvious to those who
have to keep track of such things.
This growth is q subject of great
difficulty to the swell matron about
to issue invitations to some social
function. She has to keep her wits
about her, else divorced wife and
husband might sit down at the
same banquet table, thus causing a
restraint among the other guests
which would demolish the sociabii-
ity of the affair.
The matrimonial troubles of the
YZnagas show peculiar condition
of affairs. Two of Mr.. Yznaga's
matrimonial affairs have ended in
separations. His first wife was Miss
Gerry Smith, a sister of Mrs. Willie
K. Vanderbilt, who has just been
separated from her husband. The
first Mrs. Yznaga sought speedy con-
ISOLATION, after securing a divorce in
California, in George Tiffany, a
wealthy Baltimorian, who is as well
known in New York as in his native

they failed to recognize her until the
misfortunes of Mrs. Drayton created a
fellow feeling. Mrs. Zborowski gained a
divorce from the baron in South Da-
kota, and the day after the decree was
signed welded Mr.. Zborowski The
latter is a millionaire, very fond of
sports, and one of the best horsemen
the world over. On one occasion in
England he rode in and won steeple-
chase conducted in the nighttime by
the aid of electric lights.
SERMONS CAUSE A DIVORCE.
One Of the queerest divorce cases in
the history of the country, and one
which has ben generally forgotten,
was fought in the courts of Chicago
in October of 1864. 1t was a celebrated
case at the time, the parties being Mrs
Emile Stewart, the daughter of one
of Chicago's most prominent men, and
Rev. Hart H. Stewart At the trial
Mrs. Stewart stated that she had been
charmed by and fell in love with her
husband through his eloquent and fer
vid sermons. Soon after the marriage,
however, she said that she discovered
! her husband had stolen his sermons
, from other preachers, and in conse-
quence his eloquence and ability were
myths. The trial was a long one, and
the wife did not secure her divorce.
The divorce cases of the English no
bility in the London courts would fill a
library with romance. 1t was the
Prince of Wales who set the fashion
among correspondents when he "per-
jured himself like gentleman in one

RAVOUX REMINISCENT.

Fifty years ago it came to my knowl-
edge that several Catholic families
lived on the Missouri river, near the
mouth of the Vermillion river In Au-
gust, 1915, after having placed myself
under the protection of heaven by re-
citing the Breviary Itinerarium, l got
on horseback and started alone for
Traverse des Sioux, where 1 was to
take a guide for Vermillion trading
post, on the Missouri river.
On the first day l went as far as
Belle PLANE, passed the night on the
prairie, and the next day arrived at
Traverse DIES Sioux, where 1 baptized
a child of P. Provencal. There 1
found a good young man, who had
been, for some years, travelling in the
Missouri river valley. He promised to
bring me to Vermillion, and to return
with me to Mendoza, for small re-
Enumeration. If he is yet living, may
God bless him; if he is no more in this
world, requiescat in pace. His name
was Paul Royaume.
From Traverse DIES Sioux we proceed
ed to Little Rock, near Fort Ridgely,
where we bought cart and some pro-
visions, etc, and then we crossed the
Minnesota river, and travelled west
along the northern side of Sleepy Eye
creek, and of Cottonwood river; thence
to Pipestone quarry. A few miles
| farther we saw grazing, on a beautiful
prairie, fine herd of buffaloes, which
seemed enjoying happiness to the full
extent of their instinct In the desert
such sight elevates the mind of a
man to God, the Creator, the Pre-
server, the Benefactor of all creatures.
1.-The Lord is sweet to ALL says Da-
vid, land His tender mercies are over
all His works." And he adds: 1.-THE
eyes of all hope in Thee, o Lord, and
Thou givest them meat in due season.
Thou openest Thy hand, and fillest
with blessing every little crea ture' -
Who, rejecting on these moving ex-
pressions of the prophet, would not
follow his example and eXclaim with
him: My mouth shall speak the
praise of the Lord; and let all flesh
bless His holy name for ever, yea, for
ever and ever"
The day after, my companion killed
buffalo near Sioux River Falls,
where we stopped, made a fire. pre-
pared and took dinner We had yet
fore arriving at Vermillion, where
lived four or five families, with whom
1 passed few days, gave them some
instructions, and baptized five chill
dren.
We took another direction in re-
turning to Mendoza; the distance we
travelled was no less than $50 miles. and
we had to make our way through
many swamps, ravines, creeks, rivers
: and woods. We camped one night in a
place where we saw thousands of buff
! faloes; and we were very much an
J noyed by the barking of prairie dogs
or wolves, that followed them, and by
armies of mosquitoes.
When we left Vermillion Henri
Ange, a half-breed, accompanied us
some twenty-five miles to a camp OF
Sioux, with whom we passed several
hours. They were pleased to see me
! and 1 was much more pleased to be

! them the truth of the Christian reli.

IN A BAD HUMOR.
The Minnesota House Puts in
One More Working Sat-
urday.
LITTLE GOOD WORK DONE.
Senator Sperry's Bill to Widen
the Grounds for Di-
Vorce
IS GIVEN A BLACK EYE,
BARRIERS Sunday-Closing Law
Unfavorably Recon-
mended.
IS GIVEN A BLACK EYE.

The house worked all day yester-
day. though with a small attend
ance. and then refused to adjourn
longer than until 10 a. m. Monday.
From a bad beginning in passing
the Downs resolution, until the close,
little work of Importance was done.
Incommittee of the whole, in the aft
ernoon. with Mr.. Underleak in the
chair, many bills were given more or
less consideration. Two We're given
recommendations that will probably
kill them, and three were recon-
mended for passage. BY far the
larger number were allowed to go
over without action, because OF alb
sence of members interested in them.
Representative Scofield, while the
house was in committee of the
whole led a successful fight on S. F.
pa, Senator Sperry's bill to widen
the legal grounds for divorce.
Mr.. Scofield called attention to the
fact that habitual or excessive use
of narcotics would be cause for di-
yorce. He considered that such a
law would be letting down the bars
altogether too much. Use of tobacco
could easily be urged as cause for di-
Vorce; and in his experience, he had
known of many instances where per-
sons had become confirmed users of
morphine through some great mis-
fortune, generally by reason of I'M
bearable physical pain. Such peo-
pie, he held, were more deserving of
pity than punishment. He moved
that the bill be indefinitely post
poned.
Messrs. Jones, J. D., Johns and
Robbins supported the motion, and
it was adopted without protest.
BARRIERS BILL DOWNED.
Mr.. Tallman's bill to increase the
penalty for the second offense of keep
ing barber shop open on Sunday was
jumped on by P. H. Kelly, Mr.. Mel
licke, Mr.. Johns and others.
Messrs. Tallman, Robillard and Ding
man defended the bill; but the argu-
ment that the present law is severe
enough prevailed, and it was recon-
mended for indefinite postponement by
a decided majority on viva voce vote.
During the debate the Ramsey coun-
ty delegation had the floor nearly all
the time, and funny filings at one an
other were as plentiful as bills on gen
eral orders.
A brief but warm debate occurred on
a motion to recommend for passage H.
F. 1876, DIR. Robillard's bill to prevent
drunkenness and insanity resulting
therefrom.''
Mr.. Scofield considered the bill too
sweeping in its provisions. DR. Robil-
lard replied that sweeping evils re-

Hamilton, who was killed by Aaron
Burr, did not alone cause the interest.
Eva Mann, the woman in the case, is
still living in New York. She is now
the wife of a young Englishman Rob-
ert Ray Hamilton had lived with Mrs.
Mann, and to induce him to marry
her it was alleged she palmed off a
spurious baby upon him as his own.
When the alleged fraud was discov-
cred, to hide his shame, Robert Ray
Hamilton went West, where ne was
drowned while on hunting trip.
TROUBLES OF THE NEAMES. -
The divorce suit which Douglas
Neame brought against his wife, a
daughter of w. H. Henriques, one of,
the best-known men on the stock ex-
change, had some curious features
about it. Frank Ellison, better known
as "Biff,' because of his strange habit
of punching people promiscuously,s sup,
piled the strange features of the case.
Mr.. Ellison was great admirer of
Mrs. Neame, and it was supposed that
after the divorce proceedings We're over
he would marry her. He is. now in
Sing Sing, though, serving out a SEN
Ie1Ce DeCduS0 Ol d
fng'' he gave the elder Henriques. At
the trial which eliminated in the con-
viction of Ellison it was shown that
he was in the habit of visiting the
HenriqueS mansion on Madison ave-
nue., where Mrs. Neame lived, and
smashing furniture or threatening the
lives of its inmates as the fancy took
him. 1t was after he was denied adj
mission to the house that he commit
ted the assault on Mr.. Henriques which
lied to his Imprisonment. Mrs. Neame
has never gone much in society since
the scandal became public property.
The divorce suit against her was
brought by her husband in England.
Mrs. Neame will inherit a goodly por-
ton of the fortune left by the late
Howard Osborn, who built up an in
ternational reputation for himself as
the admirer of Fay Templeton and
other stars of the operate armament.
Mrs. Neame's mother was Mr.. Os-
horns aunt.
Mrs. Elliot Zborowski is the di-
vorced wife of the Baron de Steurs.
She was a Miss Cary, is connected
with the Aston family, and it is said

tunate meetings, is pleasuring
abroad. Right here it might be
mentioned that quite recently Mr..
Vanderbilt cherished the ambition
that, Miss Consuela would one day
wed the young Duke of Manchester.
His mother, the Duchess of Man
chester, is sister of Fernando
Yznaga, whose first wife was. a sis
tersof Mrs. Willie K. Vanderbilt 8Of
ceurses Mrs. Willie K. sided with her
sister in the divorce proceedings
against Yznaga, and whether her
family animosity extends to the
Duchess Of Manchester is a question.
Anyway, such a marriage would only
tend to further entangle family re-
lations of an already complicated
nature.
Mrs. Vanderbilt has still another sis
ter who has figured in the divorce
courts. She was Miss Julie Smith and
is now the Countess de Fontilleat.
When she married the titled French
/ man her family were delighted and
! thought 1T great match. These illu-
Slons were soon dispelled 1t seems
that the Frenchman thought he was
! marrying great American heiress,
whereas the Smith family, of Ala
bama, of which his wife was daugh-
| ter, had been impoverished by the war
and had little money. All the wealth
| the family had consisted in the rela-
| tionship with the Vanderbilts. 1t has
been said that for a time Willie K.
! Vanderbilt made a generous allowance
to the titled couple, but the French no
bleman accumulated debts at such a
pace that it was almost impossible to
| keep up with them. Then came the
| separation, and for a time the titled
1 lady talked of going on the stage. This
resolution was obnoxious to the Van
| derbilt family, especially her wealthy
/ brother-in-law and a fat income was
| settled upon her.
I There is one more sister in the Smith
! family-Miss Mimi-but she is unmar-
| ried, and lives most of the time with
| Mrs. Willie K. Thus out of four sisters
| the three who married have been I'M
| fortunate.
THE ASTOR SCANDAL.
1t is hardly necessary to call to mind
the divorce proceedings in the Aston
family, that of the Coleman Draytons.
The suit which James Coleman Dray-
ton Instituted against his wife, who
was Miss Augusta Aston, a sister of
John Jacob Aston, is still pending "a,
the Jersey courts. This suit caused
more unsavory talk than any of the
others, because of the sensational con-
duct of young Alsop Borrowe, the CO.
respondent in the case, who was chaI-
lenged to fight duel by Mr.. Drayton

second of young Borrowe, gave this
case a most romantic flavor at the
time. Unlike other women whose mar
riages terminated in the divorce courts,
Mrs. Drayton has never been widely
received in g2siety, potwithstanding
mother, Mrs. William Aston But
should the divorce courts decide in her
favor, she will doubtless again be a
figure in metropolitan society.
HAMILTON'S SAD CASE.
The famous Robert Ray Hamilton
case was one of the most sensational
of the century The fact that Mr..
Hamilton was grandson of Alexander
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1895-03-03

of tire numerous cases where he occu-
pied an unenviable position in the trial
papers.
Coming back to the Yznaga separa-
ration, it was long ago limited that
when the final break occurred the lady
would probably marry a well-knOwn
millionaire widower who narrowly es-
capped serving in the diplomatic corps
under the present administration.
Looking a bit into the future, So
ciety expects at any moment to hear
of the institution of a suit for divorce
which will cause a sensation. The
suit will be husband against wife. The
wife had much in the way of family,
but nothing in the way of wealth.
With the husband it was the reverse.
The wife is a great beauty. A spuri-
Gus baby is said to be the interesting
feature of the case.

at the Biwabik mine, Saturday morn

but the little town was baly shaken by
the shock. An old man named Clartin
and his two daughters, who lived near
the scene of the explosion, had a mar

pieces just after they had reached a
place of safety. The dynamite was
stored in an old camp, and in some way
the building caught fire.
