AN EMINENT CARDINALS EDIcr.
He Indors,s the Circus But Prohibits the
TheateT.


The recent action of Cardinal Rich
ard, archbishop of Paris, in forbidding
his clergy, under penalty of suspen-
sion, TO visit the theatre, while ap-
proving of the circus as "the theatre of
childhood, where the priest goes as a
guide Of children" was deemed of suf-
ficient importance to be cabled at
length to the New York Sun of last
week and has aroused much discussion
in beth religious and amusement cir
cles. The position assumed by Cardi-
nal Richards, said the press agent of
the Wallace shows to q COMET repre-
sentative yesterday, "is largely due to
the indisputable fact that the perform
ances given in the greater circuses are
on much higher and purer plan than
of those tolerated on the stage today.
Expression, incidents and exposures
common on the stage would be hissed
from the ring and no responsible cir
Gus manager would dare to introduce
Yulgarity or demoralizing suggestive
ness in either word or action. Through
the liberal introduction OF fairyland
pageantry, harmless fun, amusing ami
NAL antics and performances and other
features best suited to childish desires
and comprehension, the circus, as Car
dinal Richards maintains, has become
the theatre Of chilehood,' and thou

Contractors Fear That the Work of
Paving Milwaukee Avenue Cannot
Be Completed This Year.
PAVING BRICK NOT OBTAINABLE.
Work will Also Be Delayed BY the Plac~
Probable Go over Until Spring.

From present. indications there is
good reason to believe that no work
will be done on the Milwaukee avenue
paving during the present year and
the people of that thoroughfare will be
forced to bear another winter of mud
and slush. A. E. Rutledge, represent
ing the firm holding the contract for
the work on the street, was in Ksnosla
Monday afternoon making preliminary
preparations for beginning work and
he announced that at the present time
it was hard to get brick for so large a
job. Many cities are putting in paved
streets this year and the burlington
brick seem to be favorites in all parts
of the Northwest aud for this reason
the factories at Ga1esburg are far be-
hind in their orders.
Another reason for delay in the paw
ing of the street is the placing of the
water, gas and sewer connections. The
people have until the seventh of next
month to put in these connections and
after that time the city will put them in
the entire work probably requiring the
make it impossible for the PAYERS to
start work until the first of Novem Der,
and it is feared that the weather would
then be too cold to permit the compile
ton of the work during the winter.
Of course the contractor will be able
to go ahead with the work as soon as
the connections are put in, but it would
hardly be advisable to risk winter
weather in putting down SO long a
stretch of pavement.
AS the contract is large one and
the Improvement permanent one the
property owners on Milwaukee avenue
will probable elect to have the paving
laid over until next spring.
Mr.. Rut1edge is reported to have
stated yesterday that he had not as yet
made any contract with the railway
people for the pavement, and it is pos
sib1e that other delay will be occasion
ed in this manner.

GRACE SMELL GIVEN DIVORCE.
Gets Decree From James G. Walker at
Waukesha on Cruelty Charge.

Absolute divorce from her husband
was granted to Mrs. Grace Smell
Walker, at Waukesha, Monday. This
ended a 1ong-drawn-out legal con-
troversy, in which James c. Walker,
manager of the Fountain House of
that city, was the central figure, with
the complainant seeking to prove cruel
and inhuman treatment. The fight
was started in this city but recently
venued to Waukesha.
Grace Smell is we'll known ii Chica-
go, being the daughter of the wealthy
West Slider who was murdered in his
own home a dozen years ago, but
whose slayer, alleged to be Willie
Tascott, was never apprehended.
Grace Smell had other matrimonial ex-
perience before marrying Mr.. Walker,
having been welded to and divorced
from Frank Coffin. It is now stated
that she will again wed Mr.. Coffin.
In the Circuit court at Waukesha the
complainant alleged that her husband
had beaten her and otherwise mis-
treated her-so roughly, in fact, that
she was declared by friends to have
suffered serious injury. Testimony by
her physician, who treated her after
the alleged assault, is said to have had
influence with the court. No defense
was made in the case.

the aldermen will be removed from the
anxious seat and the account of their
gains will be made public.
The aldermen are not alone liable
under the law and complaint has been
made against Gustave L. Clausen.
The warrant has not been issued as the
officials have not been able to locate
Clausen up to the present time. With
the issuance of this warrant it is prob
bile that another charge will be made
against the aldermen accused of fraud.
Patrick L. Haynes has not as yet been
mentioned III connection with the fraud
in the passage of the ordinance. No
blame for conditions has been laid at
the door of B. J. Arnold or any of the
members of the corporation now known
as the Kenosha Street Railway COM
panY.
The issuance of the warrants has
caused the widest excitement in official
circles and many of the aldermen are
wearing an anxious look this after
noon. The full force of the charges
has not yet reached the ears of the
people, but when the news is given out
! there will be a general feeling of salts
faction that the city and its purer
| officials are to be relieved of the little
and mean insinuations which have
! SO long been hanging over tnem ane
that the guilty men will be forced to
stand in court and face the accusations
against them.
The start is a good one and it is to
be hoped that the officials will not let
up until the City Hall has been purged
of the gang of men who have sought
Office for the sole purpose of securing
the little spoi1s which would have been
given them.
The work of turning up this con-
spiracy has been one in which some of
the leading men of the city have
taken part. They have gone into the
affair for the sole purpose of giving
the people facts and furnishing the
guilty parties. Aldermen and just
plain citizens have touched shoulders
in the matter, and not one of them is
claiming the credit for the final round
up.
The coming days will be watched
with interest and the announcement of
the issuance of other warrants will
undoubtedly cause some surprise and
chagrin.
The fact that such dealings are not
countenanced by the better element of
the council is apparent by the work
that has been done by some of the
members of that body in bringing out
| he
enquiry At least two of the aldermen
| have done all in their power to assist in
| the laying bare of the facts. But the
opponents of the investigation have
not been inactive and their agents and
: emissaries have watched every move
made by the coterie of honest men
who have made this effort to remove
this blot from the life of the munich
patty. It is even claimed that some of
the officers of the law in citizens
clothes have kept close eye on the in
vestigators, watching every move that
was made.
That the men accused will make
hard fight cannot be doubted but tt
investigation will be complete and the
people of the city can draw their own
conclusions as to the guilt or innocence
of all.
