important subject in pathology, bac.
teriology or hygiene.
At the time the announcement was
made that Mr.. Rockefeller had given
$200,000 to found the institute, it was
said that one OF the things the institute
would do would be to investigate the
milk supply of the city in cooperation
with the board Of health. This task WAS
completed some time ago. 1t was said
also that work Of more ambitious ma
ture involving original research and an
effort to throw new light on problems
which are as yet unsolved by medical
science will be taken up in the autumn,
The board OF directors, which is as.
sisting and directing these Investigators
in their work, comprises William II.

At the time he was arrested he was
playing cards with his clever rascal of a
partner. There being no warrant for
arrest Of the greater criminal, he made
his escape aud has not yet been appre-
hended. The young man arrested stated
that he had not received pay for what
he had done, and that the man who es.
capped had something over $500 on his
person when Eggerton was arrested az
his side. Eggerton had only about 500
when arrested. The young man stated
that they had several hundred scalps in
Portland awaiting their convenience W hen
the game came to an end. Part Of this
tale has been substantiated by facts that
came TO light later, while other portions
Of the recitation were merely voiced by

NEW
MARRIAGE
LAW
EpiScOpaIian Canon on Mar
riage and Divorce.
Prohibits WedlOck of Persons
Divorced for Reason Not
Existing Before Marriage.

SAN Francisco, Oct. lO.-The action o.
greatest, importance taken by the
triennial Episcopal convention wa'
the adoption, by the house Of bishops
by vote of 81 to q, of canon 80, which
relates to the solemnization of matri-
mony. All Of its provisions had previ-
ously been argued except those con-
tanned in section 4, which forbids the
marriage of persons divorced for any
cause not ex xsting before marriage.
"For any cause not existing before
marriage" is understood to refer
to such cause as insanity, inability
10 execute a contract, the existence
Of living wife or husband, OF like
reasons, which practically rendered the
marriage null and void. This section
has been bone Of contention, a strong
element in the church holding that the
re marriage OF the innocent party to
divorce granted on the ground OF inf
deity should not be forbidden. The
bishops have refused to accept this view
of the matter The question is 10y no
means settled, az the whole subject is
now TO come up in the house Of deputies,
where it is expected to cause protracted
debate.
The canon as finally passed by the
houde of bishops reads as follows;
Text of the Canon.
Canou 80. OF the solemnization OF mat.
rimony.
/. The solemnity OF matrimony in
this church is a service in which mutual !
consent Of the parties entering into this |
state of life is given in the presence of
the minister, who, having pronunced |
them in the name OF the Holy Trinity |
10 be man and wife, invokes the divine |
blessing upon their union.
III. The requirements of the law OF |
The state regarding the conditions for the |
civil contract OF marriage shall in all |
Eases be carefully observed before the
is solemnzed.
III. No minister shall solemnize the
of any person who is a minor
inder the laws of the place of marriage
inless the parent or guardian of such
minor is present and Consenting, or shall
rave given written consent TO the mar
'iage, or is permanently resident in a
oreign country. No minister shall SOL
'mnlze marriage except in the presence
,f at least two witnesses, the minister or
he witnesses being personally acquainted
with the parties. Every minister shall
without delay formally record in the
proper register the name, age and resi-
lence OF each party. Such record shall |
be signed by the minister who performs |
the ceremony, and If practicable by the
married parties, and by at least two wit.
lessses OF the marriage,
~. No minister shall soemnize a
between any two persons un-
ess or until, by inquiry, he shall have
satisfied himself that neither person has
been, or l., the husband or the wife OF
any person then living; unless the for
mer marriage was annullei by a decree
oi somo civil court Of competent juris-
ilction for cause existing before such
former marriage.
The bishops have yet to consider canon
81, providing for the discipline of per.
sons marrying after being divorced. |
This will also cause lively discussion.
