A GREAT STORY.
Worthy Of that Master OF
HiatOriC Fiction, Dumas.
TIE CHEVAL|ER D AUR|AC.
S. LEVITT YEATS,
Author of "The Honor of Sayelli. "

To be commenced in the Sunday
Register next Sunday, and continued
in both Daily and Sunday issues.
This story is magnificent narrative
of the stirring days OF the war between
Henry ", of France and Navarro, and
the Leaguers, headed by Cardinal Bour-
bon. the Duke of Msyenne and their
Spanish allies; 1898.
The story is the equal of the best of
Dumas tales of the French revolution
airy period and of the first Empire, and
will be followed by every reader with
the greatest possible interest.
The Register has no hesitation in
pronouncing this the best story ever
published in this city, and urges every
reader to watch for it and to not miss
a single issue containing the narrative.
The first chapters of THE Chevalier
DAuriac" will appear next Sunday.

question. in its nakedest commercial
significance. cut too large a figure IN
the reasons leading TO the seeking OF
a divorce.
Marriage is something more than
mere business arrangement Judge Val
liant is reported as saying. And there
is a growing tendency in this country
10 regard the solemn obligation Of mat
rimony too lightly" Then, summing
ND the evidence in the case, he said 1t
showed simply that the defendant was
not a money maker Inability to
make money is not sufficient ground
for divorce" Judge Valiant ruled.
Whereupon the attorney for the
plaintiff took a nonsuit, presumably for
the purpose of filing new case with
an amended petition.
Judge Valiant is evidently an old
fashioned gentleman of somewhat an
tiquated views on the subject of mar
ried life. but there is a refreshing
wholesomeness in the views thus enter
tanned. 1t might be well if divorces
we're not so easy and frequent nova
days. 1t might be well for ambitious
women to realize that they that cannot
shake their husbands because the lat
ter fail to accumulate wealth as rapidly
as is desired. 1t might be well If mar
riage were conscientiously entered into
as something more than a mere busl-
ness arrangement" And it is certainly
we'll for a judge TO protest against
degraded view of "the solemn obliga-
ton of matrimony." upon the proper
fulfllment of which depends the safety
and happiness of society.

We have only to announce the policy

BY implication Mr.. Sherman clearly
and strongly conveys the opinion that
the extension of our limits IS pad
nolicv and tends to weaken the nation
and that new dangers would be in
volved in the acquisition of foreign ter
ritory. What compensation woulo we
get for thus embarking in a new and
dangerous political enterprise in oppo-
sition to all our past tried policy? We
would get a fresh debt, new ana
distant territory to defend and the re-
sponsibility of the government OF
mongrel people with most undesirable
elements. We get no material beneht
not assured to us by treaty.
The fact is that several hundred
Americans have seized Hawaii and do
not know what to do with it or how
to let 90. Some millions Of American
money are invested in Hawaiian prop
erty and bonds and the men in pos
session of Hawaii want to shift their
political troubles and the guardianship
of their property to the shoulders OF
the United States. We are asked TO
abandon the proved wisdom of the
fathers to lift them out of hole.

The marks at the wharf last evening
showed a stage of feet 2 inches and
rising. Rivermen are confident of a
boating stage for some time to come.
The Queen City will be down this
morning and will leave at about IL
o'clock for Cincinnati. She received a
tremendous ovation at Pittsburg, and
crowds have been visiting her ever
since she landed. She did not leave
Pittsburg until ten o'clock last night,
many hours behind her scheduled time,
and consequently will not arrive in
Wheeling this morning until ten
o'clock. She will lay at the wharf an
hour. and every person is given cor
dial invitation to visit the boat during
that time.
The burning down of the old Sween-
ey glass house, on the river bank in

ed for it in order to avoid the bar on
the Island shore during low water.
The Queen City will take big crowd
of Epworth League excursionists from
Moundsville down the river to-day.
They will be transferred to the Vir-
GINA when the boats meet below, and
will return home on the Virginia.
The Virginia leaves at 2 a. m. to-
morrow morning for Pittsburg. With

H. H. Stone, of Emory College,
Georgia, writes to one of the Atlanta
papers substantially the following
wise suggestions:
One of the greatest needs of Georgia. in order
to its development and prosperity, is better
country roads.
Broadening the tires on all vehicles would
help greatly to put and keep the roads in good
condition. Wheels would then act as rollers
to make the roads compact and smooth,
rather than as rut-makers
Broad wheels would be induced if the Leg
islature would do nothing more than exempt
from taxation for term of years all vehicles
with tires of four inches in width and over.
The tax return blank might be made to
read "What is the value of carriages, wag-
ons, buggies and carts with tires less than
four inches in width?'
, This is small matter seemingly, but it
would do much toward providing and es-
tablishing better country roads.
The broad-tire suggestion is worth adop-
ton by town also. Vehicles thus equipped
might be exempted from taxation, not only
for term of years" but for all time.
The broad tire on heavy vehicles, if not a
road, maker, is road-preserver
The town of Frostburg should by all
means encourage their adoption and
use by exempting from all municipal
taxation all vehicles of some stated tire
width over inches.

Commenting upon "Tobe's" letter
to that paper, Uncle Sam says
If the populists want top put up ticket they
should be up and stirring. The new election
law puts Frostburg's municipal election,
believe, under the Australian ballot law.
The nominations can be made at a conven-
ton, but nomination papers containing the
names of the candidates will have to be
signed by voters who must state when sign
ing that they will vote for the candidates on
the paper. The paper must be petition adj
dressed to the Board of Election Supervisors.
and must be signed by at least 200 voters in
order to get a place on the official ballot. |
have not the law before me, but it is my i'm
preston that these are the provisions of the
law. Populsts. get huetle on you and
carry Frostburg on the anti-monopoly issue.
If you want ticket out it must be attended
to at once or it will be too late.
Much as the JOURNAL regrets to an
nounce the fact, it must be stated that
the above alarm is most likely ground
less.
The JOURNALS regret is based on
the loss of the fun of seeing ''Tobe''
bunting 1000 popuIists" in this town.
A fne-tooth comb might develop
that number, but petition-never.

A Good Provision.

The Wisconsin constitution provides
that
no local bills shall be considered BY the
State legislature, but shall be passed upon by
the county commissioners OF the several
counties or by the city councils.
This provision is said to work well,
one of the results being a material
shortening of the Legislative term.
Generally speaking, such provision
brings legislation nearer the people ;
bills would be more closely and care
fully considered, and very much money
saved.
Particularly speaking, only local
measures involving constitutional or
legal questions would be considered.
In Maryland the Legislature, relieved
of local bill routine, could easily do its
work in 45 days.
Legislative home rule is far better
than "the initiative and referendum"-
needless proposal involving clumsy
proceeding.

hood next June and had promised his
many friends to read his first Mass in

His superior, His Grace Archbishop
Chapelle, disposed differently. Mr.

morning en- route to Sante Fe. his new
home. He will receive the sacred
