Editorial Notes.

In the thirty-two years since confed-
GRAFTON only 27l divorces have been
granted in the whole Dominion of Can
ada, and there has not been divorce in
Prince Edward Island, population 1oO,-
900, in thirty years.
Sympathy for Kruger is certainly
misplaced. He took with him when he
fled from South Africa a fortune esti-
mated at 1000, 600 in gold, the fruits of
his dictatorship, and abandoned the
people he had led into war which
could only have one result. He is be-
yond the reach of punishment, and
both he and his family are abundantly
provided fol financially. Indeed, he
has handsomely feathered his nest.
Somerville. Mass, has adopted the
ctrfew ordinance, and the signal rang
for the first time at 9 P. NJ, Dec. 10th.
Three strokes were sounded on the fire
aidTn D6llS. Inere were not MANY
children on the streets at that time OF
afterward and those who were out
were scampering for home Some boys
were found around fire in field and
were sent to their homes. There have
been no prosecutions as yet under the
ordinance, which is now in fair work
ing order
Ex-president Harrison in speech the
other night declared that the constitu-
ton follows the flag in any possession
that we may get, But there are just as
good men as he who say it does not,
and there are good arguments on both
sides 1t is matter that the supreme
court will decide as soon as it gets good
and ready to do so, and it may be as
well to wait until it does So
This from the Gardiner Reporter
Journal seems to cover the ground com
pletely The administration can stand

NOT YET IDENTIFIED,
The Man Picked Up at Odenton Now
at Emergency Hospital.


A man whose identity had not been estab-
lished this morning is under treatment at
the Emergency Hospital suffering from
conclusion of the brain and a number of
bruises and cuts about his head. His in
juries. it is believed. were inflicted in Mary
land. in some unknown manner. and the
LEGAL police are not much interested in the
case. The names wv. B. Jones" and BEN
jamin H. Jones' were on papers and letters
found on him, and during one interview
with the doctors he mentioned the name
Patrick Mcintyre" The patient reached
the hospital yesterday morning about 4
O'Clock shortly after he was found near
the station at Odenton on the Baltimore and
Potomac railroad. A track walker found
the unconscious man lying beside the rail-
read track. He was unconscious and there
were lumber of wounds on the left side
OF his face and head. His nose was also
SCARED. and one hand was bruised. The
apparently dying man was taken to Oden-
ton and placed on the first train coming this
way. When the patient reached the nos
p1tal ne was suffering from shock and he
also showed signs of intoxication. Letters
and express receipts found on him indicated
that he might be prosperous country mer-
chant: 1t was also suggested that he was
probably railroad man. Persons who saw
him at Odenton before he was brought here
were certain that he did not belong in thu
section. Four cents was the amount of
money that was found on him.
The sick man is apparently about forty
five years old, and has a heavy brown mus
tache- He wore a pair of dark trousers
coat and vest of brown mixed goods and
SLOUGH hat He also had a pair of buckskin
gloves. Among the papers found on the
patient is a due bill from West Virginia
lumber company for 1913. given to w. B.
Jones. This bill is dated March 1, and was
signed by w. c. McAllister. An Adams tx
press Company receipt for 80 cents shows
that w. B. Jones shipped package from
Covington, Va, to Baltimore last Friday.
The package is to be delivered to w B.
Jones. A letter addressed to Jones & Co,
Elizabeth City. N. c., and another from
Mrs. Virginia Jones' So Chapel street. Nor
folk. addressed to her husband. Herbert
Jones, were also among the mans effects.
There were also several sheets of paper
containing the advertisement of Lanes
Hotel, Elizabeth City. n. c., found in the
patients pocket. This afternoon at the
hospital the physicians stated that the pa
tient was still in stupor. While his inju-
rtes are serious, the doctors think he will
recover.
