Want Old Law in Oklahoma.

Guthrie, Okla. Nov. 29.-SinCe the
repeal of the ninety-day divorce law of
Oklahoma by congress two years ago.
the divorce industry has diminished
considerably. While this law was in
force hundreds of mismated couples
found solaCe here. and an average of
! 500 divorces was granted yearly.
The courts were lax. and DEGREES
were granted on most trifing allega-
tions. Oklahoma and North Dakota
were then the divorce Meccas, and it
was largely through a lobby composed
OF Dakota attorneys that the Oklaho-
ma law was repealed.
The law now requires one v~earsres-

Same Secrecy Prevails.
The same secrecy prevails as under
the n~inety-day law. and this fact is TAX
en- advantage of by persons from the
east Who have no objection to residing
temporarily in the territory for a per.
iod of twelve months in order to gain
a divorce. At the last session of the
United States district court in the first
district sixty-two divorce DEGREES were
granted. forty-two being to temporary
residents of the territory.
While the n~inety-day divorce law
was effective more than $50 lawyers
resided in the territory and did moth

their circulars. and many attorneys
maintained eastern agents. who
mismatched couples and
and pointed out Oklahoma as the place
where they could obtain liberty.
Upon the repeal of the law many of
these divorce lawyers left the territory
and sought other fields. but there are
scores of attorneys still here who con-
duct a divorce business exclusively. At
the coming session of the legislature
an effort will be made t revive the OLD
divorce law. 1t is argued that it brings

and its moral aspect is not considered,

Agitation Against the Law.

The agitation against the law was
started by the Woman's Christian
Temperance union. and successfully
terminated two years ago. when the
law vas repealed without a dissenting
vote. Since that time there has been
a marked decrease in the number of
divorce cases considered. The di.
vorce colony" is a thing of the past.
and cases are confined almost exclu.
sively to local complaints.
The present law requires a residence
OF a year, and the ground of %'grievous
mental anguish no longer suffices in
an application for divorce. The first
definite movement to r~e-establish the
easy" divorce statute will be the sig
nal for bitter warfare against the pro-
posed law by the clergymen and the

They certainly made no mistake. Mrs. B. N. Prata is always handsome, always attractive and always winsome. She would be a beauty in a calico gown in the role of country milk-maid, or in the kitchen with the pots and pans. But as queen she is glorious, superb. Every motion is queenly. Every glance is gracious. Every word and sentence attuned to sweet Mndliness.
 All the settings of the unalloysd sue cess of last night were grand. The throne was conceived in beauty. The furniture in it's pure white and gold was exquisite and appropriate. The decorations and Examinations were in comparably beautiful. The whole scene, from the queenly woman whc was the center of attraction, to tie handsome, elegantly gowned ladies ir attendance; the splendid gentlemen who ohiciatcd as the lords of her court I the sweet little pages, like rJeebuds ir a greenhouse of beauty-all combined to form pcrfeu- dream of gorgeous | loveliness that fascinated the eyes ol the densc throngs of happy people wAt could readily imagine they were gag ing at picture in fairyland.

 it is only by happy chance. as a rule, that they have a chance to accept or reject man for his beauty or opposite. We are told that her majesty Of Portugal had cur iosity on this point, and wrote to many of her royal sisters, cousins and aunts, and asked them what they thought about it, the answers being carefully inscribed in a book she possesses. The answers show that the royal ladies are not very different from others; that "the ColoneTs lady and Judge O'Grady are sisters under their skins" The czarlna, who got in the lottery good looking man, naNely says that there are women who like ugly men-when no handsome ones are near. Mars'her- ita of Italy is more philosophic. Per haps, having been the spouse of man who by no stretch of love-sickened i'm agination could be called handsome, she put more thought on the subject. Her opinion is that between fifteen and thirty women love handsome men.

General Resumption in the Anthra-

cite Field-Few Galleries Failed to
Resume.
PHILADELPHIA. Pa. Oct. 29.-To-
day witnessed an almost general re-
sumption of work In the anthracite
coal region, where for six weeks the
mine workers therein employed have
been on strike for an advance In wages,
q reduction in the price Of powder. and
iu several districts the abolition OF the
sliding scale OF wages. In a few in
stances collleries operated by individ-
uals and by companies have failed to
resume, but in the main It can be safe
~ said that hard coal is once more be-
ing mined.
The Philadelphia & Reading Coal 6:
Iron Company, which controls over 20
per cent OF the output Of the anthra-
cite region. and which is the largest
operating company in the hard coal
field, to-day received word from Cen
eral Superintendent Luther, at Potts
vile, that Thirty seven or the thirty.
nine collIerics operated by that COM
pany were working this morning. This
is the number that was In operation
on Monday. September II. the first day
Of the strike. Following that date,
however. each succeeding day Witness
ed the closing of additional colller!es,
until all controlled by the Reading COM
paay were shut down. The two COL
lieries not in operation to-day are ths
West Shenandoah and the Henry Clay.
The former is in the Schuylkill region,
and according to the Reading officials
did not resume because Of the construc-
ton OF a new breaker. The Henry
Clay, 1t was stated. is Idle because the
Abandonment Of the mine Is contem-
plated.
With the resumption of the Reading
collieries 1t is admitted by the com
pany that further opposition to the de-
mands OF the mine workers Is useless,
and It Is the belief OF the officials that
within few days those operators who
have not yet acceded to the demands
OF the Scranton mine workers con-
ren,ion will have done so.
