We are one withsfthe Fresno Demo
craft in saying that the law prohibit
ing marriage within one year from date
Of decree of persons who have been
divorced, is a failure. The law is
evaded by skipping over the boundaries
Of the law has resulted in the ruin Of
young women; no one has been or will
be punished for violation of the law;
it is feared but not respected; the pur-
and suits for divorce are just as numer-
Gus as before in which it is the inten-
ton of one or both the parties to
marry some one had in view before the
application for a decree is made. The
reasons and the purposes Of the law
having failed and the moral effects of
it having proved not commensurate
with what was intended to be accom-
plished by it, should be repealed The
right direction for reform in this mat
ter will be taken when we stiffen, and
generally better our laws concerning
divorce. They are toe liberal; the court
processes are too easily awaited of; the
judicial procedure involved is lacking
the solenmity and calm which should
dignity it. Proofs are too easily made
and the requirements in that direction
are altogether too accommodating. Let
us improve along the line of correction
rather than prohibition of marriage.
There is no discernable special virtue
in year of probation after divorce and
before remarriage. AS a matter of fact
experience thus far has shown that the
very law that was intended to prevent
haste, conserve the second thought and
give a tone of good character to the
matter, is the means of promoting
scandals, haste, evasion-and, we may
add, crime.

The kissing Bug"

Major Thomas S. Martin, the Secre-
tary of the Paramount Park Commits
sion. who has had much experience in
the West and Southwest, adds an in
teresting chapter to bug lore, apropos
of the kissing bug which is causing
so much CONSERVATION at present
Years ago. in Arizona and New Mexico,
the Major encountered a species of bug
which. he claims, is akin to the melan-
olestes picipes. At least the bite of it
was similar in it's painful results. This
bug would fly at a person and make a
quick sting. The regularity of this
was the depositing of tiny egg be-
meath the skin. If needle or some
other instrument was employed to pick
the egg out no evil resulted outside the
tiny wound. But, if the egg was not
at once extracted. the wound would
grow into a dangerous and fostering
sore, which often led to fatal results.
The sting of the kissing bug is not con-
sidered dangerous. but it's desire to at
tack human kind is like that of the
Arizona inSect.-Philadelphi Record.

PROMOTING HIDEOUSNESS IN
ART.

The Stockton Record says we are
spending large sums to perpetuate hid
eousness in bronze. and incompetency
in sculpture executed apparently by
thirdrate cutters of stone, because
when the nation attempts to do any
thing in the art line it is pulled by
political influence
There is some exaggeration and a
great deal Of truth in that remark. The
American republic has now arrived at
that period in it's history, and has at
tanned to that plane Of Importance
when it should have a National Art
Commission, which should pass upon
all art work ordered by the Govern
ment The occasion for such reflection
is a present quarrel between the Gov
eminent and certain sculptors over a
monument about to be erected by or
der of Congress. The Government
wishes the competition reopened and
broadened; the "sculptors" object on the
ground that the original call for bids
and plans was confined to certain ar
lists, and they having complied, the
award should be made to some one of
them.
Whatever merit there may be on
either side of the contention cuts no
figure in the present reflection. 1t is
enough to know that political influence
is at work to secure the making of the
award in a particular direction. That
is an offense to art, good taste and
common decency. But while we have
considerable high-class work that has
been executed for the Government, we
have a great deal more Of so-called
art work that is hideous simply be-
cause we have no official national
standard of judgment and selection.
The United States needs a l1igh-class
art commission which should constitute
jury to pass upon all art works, for
which the money of the people is to
be expended. Until there is erected
such jury, one that will be unap-
proachable by political influence, and
absolutely proof against pulls, jury
that will stand for arts sake and the
acceptance of art work upon merit
only, and that will set up and battle
for high standards. we may expect the
Government to be the promoter of the
hideous in art, very often. In this
State we have had some experience of
the disagreeable kind of the order re-
ferred to. - S7fss

The statistics to the first of August
show that since March 1, 1899, more
than 100000 workers in the manufac-
turing industries of the United States
have had increase of wages of from
1Q to 10 per cent. 1t is further alleged
by those who have gathered the facts,
that the showing is that in mills and
factories more hands are employed than
ever before. 1t is added that there is
some truth in the statement that a
number of commercial travellers or
drummers have been thrown out of en-
ployment. but that the number is not
nearly SO great as has been reported.
On the other hand some business COM
binations now employ more travellers
than ever before. It Is probable, say
the staticians. that some thousands of
commercial men have been thrown out,
but that the story that $4,000 have
been discharged is a gross exaggera-
ton. Regarding the charge freely made

augmented number of industrial work.

How Do You Like This?

A certain paper in this city has
undertaken to throw out slurs upon
the performances givenShere. last
week by Prof. Hart, the celebrated
hyponist. In the article it intimates
that the whole thing is.fake and a
fraud, and that the community is
being swindled.
We would like to 'give only one
instance, out of fnumber, which
occurred right here, that goes to
show that the power to do the things
claimed certainly exists, it matters
not under what name it may be
called.
A young man had been suffering
with an abcess at the root of jaw
tooth. 1t had swollen so much and
was so painful that the dentist, who
was applied to for relief, found that
it was impossible to pull 1t, even
with an anesthetic to assist him.
The young man was taken to
Prof. Hart who placed him under
Ahypnotic power Tor whatever you
may call it.)
The dentist then extracted the
tooth; the young man did not even
finch; and the relief was instanta-
neous and perfect.
So much for that. If hypnotic
power can relieve under such cir
cumstances, we care not what it
may be styled, it is a power worth
investigating.
Prof. Hart and his assistants will
be in other towns and cities of our
state for some time. We commend
them to our editorial brethren as
gentlemen, and ask for them only
fair treatment, which Kentuckians
always know how to give.-The
Frankfort Roundabout.

BLACKBERRY WINTER"
Temperature Took a Tumble of
Fifty Degrees.

The past few nights have been
cool enough for fire, the drop in the
temperature being fifty degrees.
The season is known as "black-
berry winter" which never fails to
come while blackberry bushes are
in bloom. The blackberry bloom is
not so large as usual, as many Of
the bushes were killed by the cold
weather of February, but this fact
did not prevent the usual cherry

ance.

We have been shown some speci-
mems of Strawberries this season
that eclipse anything we have ever
seen in size and quality.
Mrs. Cortez Leavell is entitled to
the credit of having produced the
largest individual berry, speci-
men from the Bubach measuring
OK inches in circumference. In a
box sent us we're many other ber-
ries almost as large.
The handsomest collection as a
whole was from Mr.. t. w. Longs
garden, a dozen berries weighing
thirteen ounces.
Another handsome box.was from
Mrs. R. C. Gary, a few miles out Of
town. They we're very close con-
testants for the first place.

Another Divorce Suit.

Mrs. Sallie Bethel on last Friday
filed suit in the Circuit Court for di-
vorce from her husband, Sam !
Bethel. The petition states that
they were married in 1888 and
lived togetherIuntil 1896. She alleges
that the defendant about the latter
date abandoned her and went to
GAINESVILLE, where he has since
made his home. She asks a legal
separation and the custody of their
three children.

Asleep I'm a Show Window.

Upon the recommendation OF man
ager Thomas Hiffman of the Capt.
tai Opera House at Frankfort, and
the solicitation of one of our citi-
zens who saw their performances
in Shelbyville a few weeks ago.
Manager Holland has booked Hart
the Laugh King Co.." to appear
for a week in his theatre in their re-
markable hypnotic performances.
This company created a veritable
sensation in our capital city last
week, where they broke all records
for big business. Their perform
ances are said to be entirely differ
ent from anything of its kind ever
seen here before, all experiments
being given with the assistance OF
local people whose reputation for
integrity is above reproach. In the
past two weeks the Hart company
is said to have hypnotized over
four hundred of the leading people
of this State; among them congress
man G. G.. Gilbert and his daughter
of Shelbyville, and Miss Christine
Bradley, daughter of Gov. Bradley
at Frankfort. Monday night May
22nd, Hart put Douglass Reese
(the young man who was buried
alive under five feet of earth in the
city park at Chillicothe, Ohio, for
SO hours last ApriD in a hypnotic
sleep from which he will not awake
for two days and nights. At the
close of the performance he was
transferred to a prominent store
and placed in the show win
dow where everyone can see him.
Here he will remain without food or
water, watched by committee Of
Acitizens until Wednesday night.
The entire medical and dental
profession of the city were in
vited to attend the opening perfor-
nance Monday night. Seats on
sale at the postal Telegraph Office.

Linnietta Park Springs.

At what is known as Junction
City-formerly South Danville-on
the Louisville & Knoxville and Q g.
C. Railroads, are a cluster of min
eral springs, perhaps the most re-
markable in the South, by reason
of the variety and strength of the
waters. In the early days, when
Kentucky was part of the Old
Dominion, the solitary horseman
and the weary foot traveller would
GO miles out of their way to refresh
themselves at these sparkling foun-
tains of nature, and in all the years
that have come and gone since
then, many an invalid has found
health and removed vigor in the
elixir vitae which bubbles so gen.
erously up from the great heart of
mother earth. A pure, crystal
spring is no great wonder in this
prolific land of ours; mineral waters
of excellent properties are scattered
throughout the mountain regions;
sulphur and iron wells are frequent-
ly found in close proximity to each
other, but it is rare, indeed, to find
cluster such as has made Lin
Meta a sort of Mecca in Kentucky.
Many of the most picturesque
views of the far-famed Blue Grass
region can be had from the peaks
of some of the numerous mountains
which surround Linnietta. Blue
Knobs, part of the springs prop
erty located just back of the hotel,
is supposed to have been formed in
ages passed by a volcanic eruption;
though perfectly barren in itself, il
is encircled by thousands of wild
flowers and native forest trees,
among whose branches fit hun
dreds of feathered songsters, af-
fording a sight once seen never to
be forgotten. This popular resort
will open June L. for analy sis, terms
etc, address.
