the island of Jersey. Langtry thought
his happiness was complete. But
within a few years, when his wife was
introduced into society, he found him
self undone. Soon she was the &C.
knOwledged favorite of the prince of
Wales. That was her hour Of triumph
and the first blow TO her husband.
Since then she has not seen her hus-
band.
Mrs. Langtry, some months ago, be-
gan three suits for divorce, charging
Langtry variously with cruelty and
abandonment. She claimed that he
was living on money furnished by her.
During it all he remained silent, suf-
fering. deeply, but saying nothing
which could harm his wife. 1t was not
until a few months ago, when Mrs.
Langtry secured her California divorce
for the avowed purpose of marrying
Pince Esterhazy, that he spoke. Then
he declared that he should never rec
ognize the divorce, and that in his
eyes, as we'll as in English law, Mrs
Langtry was not a free woman.

FIRST STEPS TAKEN

De Pere, Wis, Oct. 1.-THE first
step toward the construction Of the
state reformatory was taken Wednes-
day, when the grounds were surveyed
and the stakes driven, marking out the
lines for the foundation of the great
structure The work of dredging and
building docks is to be started at once
so that the material shipped by water
for the use of the building can be I'M
loaded right at the grounds. The in
stitution has been the subject of dis
cusslon in the legislature for ten
years. Some years ago a measure was
passed authorizing the appro-
priation for such reforma-
tory, but the bill was vetoed
Gov. Scofield, however, in his mes
So ge to the legislature, advised the
formation Of an institution to which
young offenders who were serving
their first term in prison could be
sent. so that they would not come in
contact with old and hardened Grim
inals. Az appropriation was voted
and location chosen between. this
city and Green Bay. It is the pur-
pose to transfer all the younger and
less vicious prisoners from the peni-
Tertiary at Waupun to this new n
stitution.

Minneapolis, Oct. 17.-Dr. David
Starr Jordan enroute to the interna-
tiCnal sealing conference, corrects an
error into which ex-Minister Phelps
and others seem to have fallen when
they commended a thirty-seyen mile
closed zone for scaling around the ISL
ands belonging to the United States.
He says that a sixty-mile closed zone
is already in effect. LAS a matter Of
fact, the strictest regulations govern
ing the American herd have been of
no avail" he said. "The natural in
crease of breeding Of the herd is
about seven per cent. Since 1885 the
American herd has fallen from 600, 900
breeding females to 100000; the Rus
sian herd from 300, 900 to about $4,000;
the Kurilo herd from about 10000 to
200 and that part of it now belong
ing TO Japan numbering 3 females as
against $4,000 formerly. The sole
cause of the decline has been in all
cases the same-the discriminating
killing of females. For this great in
ternaticnal crime two nations are
solely responsible, Great Britain
and the United States. One great OBJ
stacle to the success of negotiations
in the past was the fact that we never
came into any conference with clean
hands. American hands have de-
stroyed one-third of our own nerd,
which once had cash value Of $25,-
C00,000 and more than half the devas-
tation of other herds has been due to
American enterprise. We have al
lowed our pirates to destroy the seal
herds of ourselves and neighbors just
as We allow squatters to burn off for
ests to improve feed for sheep. If ma
tiCns we're as honest and just in their
dealings as private citizens are forced
to be, the whole seal controversy
could be settled in day, and it must
be settled"

ORATORS AND OFFICES.

Speaking of oratory, our great ora
tors have not been lucky politicians.
Webster, great and powerful as he
was, failed of the main object of his
ambition. Clay, also, tasted defeat
time and again. Blaine's life was en-
Uttered by his failure. All our most
successful pesidents have been men
who were but Indifferent public
speakers.
Orators get to be erratic, men of
impulse and emotion, either too hot
or too variable, too arrogant at times,
at others too sentimental; and they
do not wear so well with the public
as your plain, common sense men of
few words like Philetus Sawyer, Uncle
Jerry Rusk, and that class of men
not gifted in speech but full of savory
common sense.
The orators shake the trees but the
still men gather the chestnuts.
