Julia Magruder'S New Novelette,.

The Ladies' Home Journal has secured

The story concerns a young Southern CIR
who serves as nurse i'll a hospital during
the Spanish War. In the dis
charge of her mission it falls to her lot to
care for the man whom she might have
married six months before. Injuries tc
the eyes necessitated his having then

for by the girl of his heart without hei
identity being revealed to him. With
such plot it may be readily seen that
Miss Magruder has written strong story
one full of stirring incidents.

rialism, the eloquence of which attract
ed attention. Six months ago, he said,
no one could have made him believe he
could ever have been brought TO vote
for a $50 900, 600 indemnity to Spain. Yet
the change of conditions had rendered
it incumbent that he should vote for 1t,
just as it was necessary that he should
vote for the pending bill. The Govern
ment occupied certain attitude before
the world. He would stand by it, right
or wrong. Republican applauSe.) But
his action in support of the Govern
ment did not mean that he gave his
assent to the administrations policy
of imperialism. He argued that we rec
ognized the Filipinos as belligerents
against Spain and were now morally
estopped from seeking to place them
under our dominion. We occupy the
cruel, heartless position of accepting
the islands of those natives and from
the hour of victory leaving them in the
lurch. We must either turn the Fflipi-
nos loose or subjugate them.
In conclusion he charged that despite
the soft evasions of the administration
it was everywhere doing all in it's
power to familiarize the country with
the monstrous face of Imperialism.
Lands (R.) of Indiana, replying to
Johnson, declared that the latter did
trict; that he had been repudiated by
the people. If the gentleman returns

MRS. EMILY SPRING
SUES FOR A DIVORCE

SAN JOSE, Feb. PA divorce suit
was filed in the Superior Court to-day
that will set San Jose polite society
agog and supply food for the gossipers
for many days to come The principals
in the case are Mrs. Emily Spring and
her husband, Henry NJ. N. Spring,
clothier and Councilman. Mrs. Spring
is the plaintiff and she charges her hus-
band with violating the seventh COM
mandment. She names as correspond
ents the two Behr sisters-Jane and
Nellie-residents of San Francisco. Feb
ruary u and 10 last are given as the
dates when her husband so far forgot
his marriage VOWS as to mingle and
associate with these young ladies.
Mrs. Spring is determined to insist
on a divorce. She has engaged Attor-
ney V. =. Scheller of this city and given
him instructions to carry the case right
ahead to a final separation. The
plaintiff asks for all of the community
property, estimated at over $4,000, $500
a month alimony and $3.50 counsel fees.
She demands the custody of the three
children-Jackson, aged Z; Dorothy,
aged 5, and Margaret, aged 8.
The Springs are prominent society
people of this city and have always
moved with the upper-ten. For the
past couple of years they have not got
along very well together. Several months
ago Mrs Spring became convinced of
her husbands infidelity and engaged a
detective to watch him, with the result,
it is alleged, that sufficient proof was
obtained to warrant the charges set
forth in the complaint. On the first of
the year Mrs. Spring closed their pretty
home on Seventh and San Antonio
streets and with her children took up
her abode at the Palace Hotel in San
Francisco Since that time Spring has
been living at the St. James Hotel in
this city.
H. NJ. N. Spring is one of the best
known young men in this county. He
conducts one of the largest clothing
stores in this city, on Santa Clara and
Market streets. He is a member of the
City Council and is worth in the neigh
borhood of 100000. Most of this Mrs.
Spring claims is community property.
Spring is an enthusiastic sport and
owns a number of fine hounds. To
these animals and TO the fair sex Mrs.
Spring attributes their troubles.
Mrs. Spring has fortune of her own.
Before her marriage she was one of the
best known of the society bellies of this
city and took leading part in festivals
and balls for charity purposes. She is
Ol4C VI san OOSe sweetest NOcallSIS.
Mrs. Spring and her children are now
located at the Hotel Pleasanton in San
Francisco. The erection of pretty
summer home will at once be com
menced at BeIvedere. In August she
will leave on an extended European
visit, during which she will pursue her
vocal studies with the best masters
abroad. 1t is said she has ambitions
to become great concert singer and
her numerous friends are confident she
has plenty of ability in this line.
Mrs. Spring wished to avoid the no.
