THE MAcoNDRAYs DIVORCED.
Were Here on Their Wedding Tour
Not Long Ago.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 30.-Mrs. Mad
elaine Macondray got a divorce yester-
day in record time from Robert Arthur
Macondray, to whom she was married
last August at Trinity Church. while all
society looked on.
Less than a week ago suit for divorce
was filed, the young husband being ac-
cused of various sins of omission and
commission grouped under the general
head, Mental cruelty" The defendant
filed no answer, and was not present in
court when the wife's petition came up
for hearing.
Mrs. Macondray took the stand in her
own behalf and told the Court how Ma
condray had deceived and abused her.
She testified that he had sworn at her,
thrown volumes of light and heavy liter
allure at her defenseless head; had often
been absent from home on sprees that
lasted several days, and had failed to
provide for her, so that she was forced
to seek refuge at her mot.er's house.
Ethel Ciisby of 800 Frederick street,
who let the rooms occupied by the Ma
condrays, corroborated this testimony
Mrs. w. G. Richardson, mother of Mrs
Macondray, told what she knew of her
daughters troubles.
Judge Cook granted the plaintiff di-
vorce the grounds of cruelty, and
gave plaintiff permission to resume her
maiden name.

Why the Boy was Sure.

certain officious head nurse in the
accident ward of a local hospital re-
ceived an unexpected 'call down" re-
Gently. An unfortunate young man of
the age of 10 had been practicing with
n cartridge pistol several sizes too large
for him, and the result was unpleasant.
The doctors and nurses had cleansed
and dressed the wound, and he was
resting easily.
Then the nurse. who had not been
present and who hated to miss a trick,
walked over to the little boys bed.
around which the attendants were still
standing, and asked him solicitously:
"Are you sure that the bullet isn't
sticking there still?'
Sure
"What makes you think SOP"
at was blank cartridge"
There was a sharp decline in that
nurses stock of pride, and the laugh
ter failed of unanimity by one dissent
ing voice.-New York Commercial Adj

More Laughter, Less Suicides.

The physiological benefits of laughter
cannot be overestimated. 1t shakes up
the diaphragm, sets the pulses beating
to n lively measure. stimulates the
blood corpuscles, enlivens the brain and
sometimes produces dislocation of the
jaw when INDUCED in too heartily by
n man with n large mouth. Used with
discretion. laughter is as inspiring as a
sea breeze, as refreshing as an August
shower. Its moral effect is beyond
computation. 1t has killed more ridicu-
lous superstitions by its rollicking roars
of unbelief than any other agency.
What can be more derisive than a
laugh? The man who laughs never
kills himself. This Is the reason so few
Irishmen commit suicide.-Literary
Ira.

.Hand to Mouth" LIvers.

One of the paradoxes of waste is that
the persons most addicted to it are not
men and women of independent means
who can support themselves in spite of
their eXtravagant expenditure, but the
poorer classes. There is hardly an able
bodied laborer who might not become
financially independent if he would but
carefully husband his receipts and
guard against the little leaks of need
less expense But unfortunately this is
the one thing which the workingman
finds it the hardest to do. There are a
hundred laborers who are willing to
work hard to every half dozen who are
willing properly 10 husband their earn
ings. Instead of boarding small per-
centage of their receipts so as to pro-
vide against sickness or want of en-
ployment they eat and drink up their
earnings as they go, and thus in the
first financial crash, when mills and
factories ''shut down" and capitalists
lock up their cash instead of using it
in great enterprises, they are ruined.
Men who thus live from hand to
mouth" never keeping more than a
days march ahead of actual want, are
little better off than slaves.-Success.

The Flying Lesson.

The following incident seems too re-
markable to be true, and yet it is
vouched for by a writer whose word
should not be doubted:
Two robins were trying to teach their
little one to fly. 1t attempted to cover
too great a distance and fell to the
ground. My little boy caught it, and
told him to put it on the roof of our
side porch. Then he and 1 watched to
see what the old birds would do.
They futtered about the yard for
awhile and then flew off. We waited
for them to return, but they did not.
and had just made up my mind that
they had deserted the young one when
1 saw them coming, accompanied by a
third old one.
They few directly TO the roof of the
porch, and 1 saw that one of them had
a piece of Irvine in it's bill. And what
do you suppose they did next? If had
not seen it, 1 should never have believ-
ed it. Two of them caught hold of the
twine, one at each end, and the little
one caught the middle of it in his bill
Then they flew off the porch, the third
robin flying under the little one and
supporting it on his back.-Philadel-
phia Times. :.

Count the Times n Horse Rolls.

To see a horse when out at pasture
rolling ON the ground and endeavoring
to turn over on his back is common
sight, but how many people have no
ticed that in doing this horses observe
an inyariable rule?
The rule is that lie always rolls over
either at the first or third attempt
never at the secondhand more than
three attempts are never made. In
other words, If the horse succeeds in
rolling over at the first try, well and
good-that satisfies him; but If the
first attempt is a failure, the second
one always is. Then he either rolls
quite over at the third or gives it up.
He never makes a fourth.
If horses are rolling on sloping ground,
they usually roll up hill. This is more
easy of explanation than the strange
custom regulating the number of at
tempts. AS to this no adequate reason
has ever been offered. Will those in
genious people who tell us why a dog
turns round before lying down, and
why ducks walk behind each other in n
string instead of abreast, explain why
a horse never makes four attempts to
roll over and never succeeds at the
second?

FOR LITTLE FOLKS.
The Game OF "Aunt sn11r.n

This amusing game is of a very sim
pie character. consisting essentially in
throwing at a small object Aunt Sally
herself is composed of a head and bust
cut out of a solid block of wood and
generally carved with negro features
and painted black. In the middle of
her nose or between her lips hole is
bored, into which is stuck a short pipe.
To break it is the object of the game.
An iron rod serves to support the
wooden figure at a proper elevation
from the ground, and when in gala
costume Aunt Sally is usually arrayed
in mob cap and a petticoat. The
mode of playing the game is as fol-
lows:
The iron rod is stuck into the ground.
a pipe put into the old lady's mouth
and line drawn upon the ground at
IL, 16 or more PAGES. At this line the
players stand, and each is furnished
with three short cudgelS about Is inch
es in length. which they hurl at Aunt
Sally's head in hopes of hitting the
pipe. The best plan is to throwthe cudg-
els undermined, giving them a rapid
rotary movement at the same time.
Some persons insert an additional pipe
into each ear. but this is an innovation
and leads to careless throwing. 1t is
better to hang a sheet, net or large
cloth behind Aunt Sally in order to
catch the sticks and save the trouble of
continually fetching them from n dis
tance. Within doors the iron rod is fur
nished with a loaded pedestal.

Boys should learn to do something.
A boy without knowledge of business,
trade or profession is liable to become
loafer. Parents who neglect a boys
training and fail to prepare him for an
active place in the world are laying up
for themselves a heavy share of blame.
When a boy grows to be a man and
finds that he knows nothing and is able
to do nothing we'll, there will cone
sad reflection upon those who had
charge of him in his early years. The
modern Diogenes with his lantern is
not only looking for an honest man. but
for a proficient man.

Queer Case OF Evolution.

The general law of evolution is from
the useful and practical into the ideal
and beautiful. This seems to be re-
versed in the case of the lily and the
banana. The banana is really a devel-
oped tropical lily from which the seeds
have been eliminated and the fruit
greatly expanded. This is very much
as if an angel should evolve into a fat,
comfortable stockbroker.-Excha

SEVEN GRADUATES.
Enjoyable Entertainment Marks Close
of Parochial School

Seven young people, graduates of the
Church of the Assumption parOchial
school, received their diplomas last
night at the entertainment room Of
the Church of the Assumption.
The graduates were Elizabeth Miller,
Gertrude Wise, Grace Foley, Clinton
Zercher, William Butler, Daniel Glenn
ents and John Oberhausen. Their GER
tificates of graduation from the parC-
chia1 school will permit them to begin
the first years work at the Topeka
High school.
An interesting entertainment pre-
coded the ceremony Of the presentation
of the diplomas. One of the most in
teresting features to the young folks
was the operetta, "A Peaceful As
sault," of which Maurice McMullen and
Edward Mooney took the leading parts.
Maurice McMullen, the Ma yor of
Mosquitoville." was running for SEN
ator, and was eventually elected. The
play shows a sketch of the manner in
which he was besieged just after his
election All the letter carriers, police
with a brass band to congratulate him
