HERB ARE THE FACTS
 ABOUT DIVORCE
Decreases DffereDt Por
 of the World.

In the United States 65.8 per cent ot the divorces are granted on petltloh oA the wife.
 In the United States 38 per cent 0d the total are granted for desertloh' ~ per cent for adultery, 16 per cent TOT cruelty and per cent for drunkenness. These are the legal pleas. They uo not indicate the real causes. mus one-half of all divorces for drunken ness in the United States occur Tn liI- inois. Ohio, Iowa and Massachusetts which indicates that conditions 1n those States favor the use of that plea.
 The special examination of 29,660 df- vorce cases in 45 counties in twelve se- lected States shows that in 2O.1 per cent of the whole number intemperance is a direct or indirect cause. In these 29, ,665 cases the average period Of mar ried life between marriage ana Separa- tion was 6.S1 years, while the average period between separation and divorce was 3.02 years, making 9.83 years from marriage to divorce.
 For the United States the average married life before divorce for a period of twenty years, for which the statis tics was collected, was 9.17 years. AS a rule it is longest in the older States.
 Out of the total of 328.716 divorces granted in these twenty years 25,371 were granted to persons who had been married q years and over, or. on an average, 29.65. The largest number. however, 27, ,909, had lived together four years. The next largest, 27, ,290, three years; 21.525 had been married two years and 15,622 only one year.
 In 146 per cent of the cases the posi- tive statement was made that there were no children.
 Where children appear in divorce proceedings the average is 2.07 to each couple.

whale If many more oceanic oil fields are developed laws and lawyers will be needed.
 At the point of the shore where these ocean wells are worked the water is shallow for quite a distance out and at the end of wharf, several hundred feet long, the water is not more than twenty feet deep.
 The wells are drilled exactly as else where after the pipe is started down. ward in the sand. Four-inch drills are used and the oil-bearing sands are struck at a depth of from 300 to 300

It was said to be the scheme to rush out two whafves along the opposite sides of the oil field, join them with a lateral wharf and claim and hold the whole watery oil field by mere right Of possession.
 However, a truce was arranged and some wharves have been built straight out from the shore. It appears that the operators have the legal advantage of possession until elected by State or Federal Government and have about the same general rights that a party of fishermen would have to a stranded

 The land between the high and low water mark on the beach belongs to the State and there are no laws governing its sale or occuDancy in such a case. Beyond low water mark to the three mile limit the shelving shore is Uncle Sam's and he has made no laws gov erning it.

thing he did not like and 'Biir prompt 1y whacked him over the head with a broom handle. The next day the papers contained lurid accounts of how he had assaulted and nearly killed another convict with an iron bar.
 This man registered vow when he came in that before he, spoke another word people would think he had lost the power of speech. For years he never uttered a word. Every device expedient was tried to make him say something, but it was no go. l say 'expedient,' because the man is so large that the other convicts were afraid to make him angry. They used to slip up behind and yell at him, stretch wires to trip him up, place buckets of water where he would knock them over in his cell and even tried to coax him to speak by promising to give him quantity of tobacco. Tobacco finally triumphed. Somebody stole his supply one day to see what he would do. Sev- eral days went by and then he ap- preached another prisoner and asked for piece of the weed. After that he spoke freely enough on occasion, but now and then he is overcome by fits of moroseness which cause him to go into his cell and refuse to come out for week. During these periods it is dan gerous for the other inmates to mo- lest him in any way. Nobody realizes this any better than they.
 Tt is nearly time to lock up and cannot tell you more now Some day I will tell of other peculiar characters, such as the man who tries to initiate a monkey all day long. and the golf fiend Yes. there is a prisoner in there who practices golf all day long.

feet the depth naturally increasing with distance from shore.
 The oil obtained from under the ocean is lighter and better than that from the wells on the bluff above.
 The wells cost about $5 foot. The flow is somewhat interfered with by accumulations of sandy silt at the bottom of the wells, which have to be cleaned out every two or three days.
 The ocean water gives no trouble. It does not leak downward beside the tightly driven casing.

 So MT Treadwell and those associa- ated with him could neither buy the sea bottom nor locate claims when they went to pushing a wharf seaward across the States property to the Fed eral domain. There was fuss in the start.
 The owners of wells above said he had no rights there and would lower the oil away from them and they mobbed his wharf and chopped 1t away between high and low water.
 There was no crime and no redress.

Austin, Texas, April 2i-The president
has called for $4,000 volunteers. and II
prorated according to population of the re-
spective States under the act Of congress-
the quota expected from Texas is about
1900. 1t is believed that the official com

will be made tomorrow by the secretary Of
war. and as soon as It is made Governor
Culberson will Issue his proclamation
calling for 1900 volunteers.
How this quota will be divided between
infantry, cavalry and artillery will not be
known until the official request is made.
by the secretary of war. Nor is 1t certain
how the militia or volunteer guard or the
states will be treated when they volunteer;
but 1t is very probable that If they volun-
teer in organized bodies they will be pre-
ferred, because they are already organized.
equipped and drilled. II the entire militia
of the State should volunteer 1t will be
necessary to raise 1900 more men to make
up the full quota.
