MARRYING FOR MONEY.
Clever Defense OF Much Condemned
Matrimonial Step.

Clever Defense OF Much Condemned
Matrimonial Step.
Among the unnecessarily harsh iudg-
ments pronounced upon human actions
may be classed the universal scorn ex-
pressed toward the girl who marries for
money. There are those who do not
hesitate to draw the most odious COM
PARSONS between such girl and others
of her sex, says writer in Vogue.
Making of love, so called, q sort Of
fetch. the world defies what is, after
all, but an instinct as though it were
grander, finer thing than courage or
probity or self denial, or any other real
ly beautiful human trait. 1t applauds
any insanity committed in the name of
love, provided always that the conven-
lions are observed. Love that leads to
the degraded life of the tenements, to
alliances with the diseased or morally
weak. that throws away years Of train
ing Ill an art or q science, that breaks
the hearts of parents-all of these
things, and many us monstrous, are ex-
cused if only Glove" is offered as a rea-
son for their doing.
In world like this, where, in spite
of countless public and private charities
for the alienation of their sufferings
and the permanent lettering Of their
conditions, thousands Of helpless little
ones expiate by cruel suffering and acute
want their parents scorn Of money con-
siderations in matrimonial alliances, it
cannot surely be wholly reprehensible
to look with favor on moneyed alliances
Sentiment is, indeed, to be preferred
to sordidncss, but the girl who decides
for the deoencies rs well as the luxu-
ries of life, for herself and any chill
dren that may be born to her, by choos-
ing wealth instead Of poverty is not
necessarilysordid, and, beautiful though
sentiment may be, when to cherish it
means inevitably life in small, unwhole-
some quarters. the hot, stuffy town for
the children even In their critical sec
ond summer (sinoe the little homo can
not spare the services of it's mistrees-
nor is there any money to spare for the
seasons needed outing), when-as Is
usually the caseISentiment means all
this frightful injustice to little, helpless
beings, the price is too high. and it
ceases to be virtue.

Cathode Rays Not as prixht as n Candle

Cathode Rays Not Bright as a Candle
Now. one Of the first questions have
been asked in regard to these rays is
this How did you obtain light 30 IN
tense that you could take photographs
through board an inch thick?' The
answer is this: The light Is not intense
to the eye 1t does not appear MS bright
as that of FREELY. Indeed it cannot be
seen on the darkest night at distance
of 800 feet. Yet candle. can be dis
tinguished on similar night at least q
mile. But the rays of candle are en-
tirely cut off from Photographic plate
by sheet of pasteboard sixteenth of
an inch thick or even less The cathode
rays are intense, however, to the photo
graphic plate, which can be termed the
Photographic eye. - Professor John

RECOVERED THE PLUMBER.
Detectives Found the Hnnd Cart and
BicycIe JJuder the He'd

Detectives Horne and Weldon late last
night recovered an Old bicycle and n push
cart, valued In the aggregate at $50, from
the house of Il man named Merriman on
Z street near Nineteenth southeast.
Yesterday by fitting one clew into an
other they got the suggestion that one
of the Merriman family had done piece
of crooked work, and that the plunder was
secreted at the home of the boy. The
home is a shaDty of wretched character
and lies far out on the eastern commons
near the Jail. The detectives visited the
place last night and found several of
the family at home, but the boy wanted
was absent.
A search of the house was made. Under
the bed were the dsmounted wheels and
axle of the hand cart and the bicycle.
These were the articles wanted, and as
the members of the household could not
explain satisfactorily how they came into
possession of one of the younger Merri-
mans, the detectives brought the articles
to headquarters, whe re they await a
claimant.
