A study of the last Indiana report en-
marriages and divorces brings out the
fact that in certain sections divorce seems
to be a disease that is epidemic, while in
other counties there is hardly a trace of
1t. Two Indiana counties for last year
may be taken TO show this-Marion and
Clark. In the former there We're but three
marriages to every one divorce; in the
latter there was but one divorce to every
$50 marriags-or three in the entire coun-
ty. In the state there was an average of
one divorce for every seven marriages
during the year. 1t is noticed that in
the counties where there are no railroads
three in Indiana-the divorce record is very
low. Clark county leading, while in .lne
counties where there are many railroads
there are many divorces, Marion county
leading.

uncles and other members of the family
now alive had been divorced from one TO
three times, and this even extended to
stl more recent generation one of whom,
at the age of p, had accumulated three
divorces-two from one man.
The notable exception to the divorce
record of the family was the mother and
father of those named. They lived to-
gether until death did them separate"
but their family affairs were not oried
into. The defense attempted to prove that
there was a divorce mania running in the
family. 1t is not known whether they es-
taDlished their point to the minds of the
jurors but they made, together with the
attorneys who laid open Mrs Lemons
family record, very great impression
upon the minds of sociological students.

Congratulations were heaped upon c. w.
Howard & Co. yesterday for their success
in presenting to the City Council the COM
plants of sailing vessels as to the pay
ment of 50 charges on entering this port,
which was repealed by that body Tues
day. C. w Howard & Co. were very act

been reported that the government steam
suction dredge left Wilmington, N. c.,
Tuesday for Key West to do work in that
vicinity. The Port Royal has done excel
lent work at the entrance of the dry dock
