MARRIAGE LAW ANOMALIES.

The recent divorce of Mrs. Sloane in
New York, without privilege to her Of
marrying again, and her marriage to
Mr. Belmont in Connecticut within four
hours of the time the prohibitory decree
was issued in New York, once more draws
attention to tho remarkably diverse and
anomalous marriage laws of the various
states. In the case referred to- notwitb-
standing New York prohibited the woman
from becoming the wife of another than
the man who had divorced her. and she
violated that prohibition almost before the
Ink was dry on the decree, New York must
recognize her marriage to Mr.. Belmont as
legal. The marriage is segal in Connecti-
cut. 1t is sanctioned by the sovereign act
of that state; and every other state and
every court is bound TO respect that SOW
ereisn act.
Numerous illustrations have been given
of the peculiar workings of the conflict
ing marriage laws of adjoining states.
Until recently Camden, N j., was the
marriage mart of the city of Philadel-
phla. The lax laws of New JERSEY per
mitted any two persons of opposite sex 10
get married. without question or refer
ence; and for years a continuous string of
scandals was the result. Now, however,
the New Jersey law has been made biz
more stringent. We have an example of
the operations of opposing laws right AT
home. In Georgia licenses are required AMI
there is a divorce law. In South Carolina
no license Is required, and there is no
divorce granted for any cause To escane
the obstacles TO marriage which Georgia
imposes, couple has merely to eros the
Savannah river into Carolina. To escape
the bonds of matrlmony which Carolina
says must be perpetual and cannot be dis
solved, the couple, or one-half of the cou-
pie, has only to cross the Savannah river
into Georgia and make good case under
our statutes And then, should the d.
vorced party marry again, in Georgia or
any other state except South Carolina. and
then return 10 that state, South Carolina
is obliged 10 regard the marriage as Legal.
because its sanction was the sovereign act
of a sovereign state.

WHAT CUBA NEEDS.

II is dawning on the mind Of the Presi-
dent probably that the situation in Cuba
is far from satisfactory. The change for
the better has not been as. rapid as was
expected In fact, every thing appears TO
! be at a standsdll there. Weeks have
passed since the 100000 for the Cuban
| soldiers was sent to Havana, and the
| money hasn't been distributed yet, and
there is no certainty when it will be dis
tributed The Cuban soldiers, instead Of
being out of the service and at work, are
still under arms and living on the people.
It is reported that the sugar crop will be
even smaller this year than it was last.
although LAST year it was grown and mar
keted during time Of war. Time enough
has elapsed to have put matters much
further ahead than they are
The question arises, is the right man at
the head Of affairs in Cuba? There is no
doubt that Gen. Brooke is an excellent
soldier but is he the man for the place
which he occupies? From what we see
in the newspapers and from reports from
those who have visited Havana, we have
seems to lack the kind of administrative
ability that is needed. He is zoo closely
allied TO red tape. Before he decides upon
a course of action in any important mat
ter he consults with the authorities in
Washington who are not as well fitted to
decide what ought to be done as he is,
because he is on the ground, and is ac-
quainted with many things which help to
reach a decision that the Washington au-
thorites do not know and cannot be made
acquainted with. What is needed in Ha-
vana at this time is a man of first-class
executive and administrative ability-a
man who knows what ought to be done
and who has the courage to go ahead and
do IL without bothering the Washington
authorities, except in cases involving the
policy OF the government
There are two men in Cuba who appear
to be successful administrators. They are
Gen. Wilson of the province of Matanzas
and Gen. Wood of the province of Santi-
ago. They are both excellent business
men and they have taken hold of the
work entrusted to them as If they under
stood 1t. They have won enconiums from
Cubans as well as Americans In their
provinces everything moves along smooth
ly, and the situation is far better than
elsewhere in the island.
Gen. Brooke and Gen. Ludlow NAV he
far better soldiers than Gen. Wilson and
Gen. Wood. but the latter are PROVING
themselves the better administrators. 1t
is reasonable 20 suppose that the President
has taken notice of the way matters are
going in Cuba and sees the necessity for
change. If he has he ought not TO
hesitate for moment to act. The Gu
ban soldiers should be paid off without
further delay, so that they could return
to their homes and get to work. If
something is not done soon to expedite the
dsbanding of the Cuban army there will
be 50 much lawlessness that a small army
VIII be required 20 suppress it. The longer
the cuban troops remain unpaid the
greater the number of them probably who
VIII become bandits. If a change in the
military governor is necessary let il he
made without delay.

among the many stories of Hannibal
Hamlin's early experiences in tbA Noira

none is more animated than his t;It with
John Holmes, interesting, besides. because
II gives the origin of the Carthaeinian of

through life. ''''''''i
Holmes had been in the United States

Der OF the state House OF Representative
was endeavoring to domineer over II tIa,,o
I'm disputed the leadership with him and
Holmes attempted to crush his vonne on
ponent by coarsely ridiculing his swartbv
complexion. Instantly Hamlin iumped TO
MS feet, and pointing his finger at Holmes
retorted; IF the gentleman chooses to find
fauit with me for my complexion. what
mas he to say about himself? / take nv
complexion from nature; he gets his from
the brandy bottle Which is more honor
able?"
This retort was greeted with great an
plause and cries of Go onr'
Hamlin then continued, pointing his fin
ger at Holmes: Il will also tell the mem
Der from Alfred that he is more conspic-
uous for trying to run dry shod over voung
men than for trying to encourage them
But as long as they are true 10
themselves and 10 nature, and as long as
the member from Alfred sticks TO the
brandy bottle, they need not fear him"
AS soon as the cheers of the House could
be sufficiently silenced, Holmes retracted
his words and made a manly apology

the incident, and from that time Hamlin
was thus frequently characterized

DR.. John Duncan Quackenbos, emeritus

that hypnotism may be employed not only
to alleviate pain in some cases-which he

science-but that it may also be used to
reform criminals and to remove criminal

The Bishop Of London and many of the
clergymen of standing are said to be con-
sidering an addition to the prayer book of
the Church Of England to provide for a
form of religious service where bodies are
TO be cremated. The Rev. DR.. De Costa, of
New York, secretary of the Burial Re-

Is president, is opposed to any such ad-

which the society does not approve.

Two facts hardest for the average man
TO credit are the love of God his Father and
unselfsh motives on the part of his broth

had a startling demonstration of the lat

Two brothers had control of the proper

What are you going to use 1t for?'
ITO live in"
Yes, but how are you going to make
your money out of it?'
Don't expect 10 make money out of it,"
Il mean how are You going to get your
expense back?"
Don't expect to get it back"
What is there in it for you, them"
"Nothing-except a home"
do you mean that You are going TO live
there?"

DO you mean 10 say that you people.

THAT is precisely what mean"
"And'not to have any home but this?"
THAT exactly"
The young man looked at the professor
a long time, and then, turning to his bro H.
er, exclaimed, "Wen, brother, there are
such people in the world, l suppose, but
this is the first one 1 ever saw!"

Tell me, tell ME of the Southland,
Is it as in time of yore?
Do the rivers flow with grandeur,
And the brooklets kiss the shore?
Do the turtle doves yet murmer
While they. mourn from love or woe?
Are the red birds notes as tender
AS they We're long, long ago?
o, Sweet Southland, how love thee
Land of my youth and happy years.
Thoughts of thee with longing fills me
And my eyes are dim with tears
Do the doGwoods, clad in whiteness,
Stand on guard among the pines,
And the honey-suckle tendrifs
Creep along the slender vines?
Does the yellow jasmines odor
Spread its fragrance In the air,
And the humming birds yet caper
'Mong the roses fresh and fair.
o, Sweet Southland. how love thee
Does the forest in It's mazes
Hide the timid, lovely fawn-
Busy whip-poor- yet tell you
Stories till the early dawn?
Does sweet Luna send a simmer
Never told by human tongue?
Are the stars as bright as ever
AS they were when / was young.
o, Sweet Southland, how love thee
