MARRIAGE LAW
Brooke's Cuban Decree Will End on
 Monday Next

Havana, August 1.-The new ecclesiasti- cal marriage law, reyoking the decree is- sued in May of last year by General Bfooke, will go into effect next Monday. The Brooke edict prohibited ecclesiastical marriages, recognizing only the civic cere- mony. After much consideration and talk ing into account the best opinion of eclesi- astical and political functionaries here, Governor General Wood decided that the ecclesiastical ceremony be recognized as on a basis of legality like that upon which 1t rests in the United States.
 From Monday next, therefore, parties wishing to marry may go through the ecclesiastical or civil ceremony or both, at their option. This decision restores to the church the privileges it enjoyed prior to the American occupation.
 The Condo de Das of Urugay and his wife are staying at the Hotel Telegrapfo. While in the restaurant the lady complained that she had been insulted by Bueyras Miralles or Havana. The secretary of the Count bl oke his cane over Miralles head. The Count sent a challenge to a duel to Miral- les, and General Wood has been appealed to to place both men under arrest.

Meeting of Young Women.

As announced in yesterdays Age-Herald the young women of Birmingham and yi- cinity are requested to meet Friday morn- ing at 10 o'clock in the Cozytorium for the purpose of organization to assist in the Hillman hospital movement that has reach- ed almost limitless proportions. It is par ticularly the desire on the part of the wo- men who are already identified with the movement to enlist the sympathy of the young women of the city and vicinity. and while the former are assured of the lat ter's interest and desire that the forth coming entertainment lead all others in point of beauty and briliancy and financial ly, and that they will lend their presence to make it attractive; still by systematic or- ganizaton on the part of the younger wo- men, greater results can be obtained, since each young woman will then feel an in- dividual responsibility to make the enter tainments a success. There Is not a young woman who is not interested in the work of the Hillman hospital and not one who will not be willing to cooperate with the movement so auspiciously begun by hun dreds of women.
 While the arrangements for the bazaar are in the hands of the United Workers Ol f1llHidH IlOSDitdi, otiii di duNiidly composed of young women would be A powerful factor to extend the interest; and the influence of such an organization would add to the strength of that numbering now many hundreds
 With the organization effected there would be many ways by which an auxiliary might augment the hospital fund. While there are numberless popular methods to raise funds, there is none more successful than that of producing a society play. A splendid cast could be selected from the society people of Birmingham, and a play put on at the Jefferson Theater would draw the largest throngs of the season.
 In addition to giving a play, the young women of Birmingham would be more than equal to the task of editing 'Wo- mans Edition of one of the daily papers, since this venture has been tried with sig nal success by the women of other cities. The young women of Louisville broke all records in their edition of the Courier Journal, and made clear profit of $S0c0, while the young women of Knoxville, by
