HARD BLOW TO BACHELORS.
a Learned Doctor In Chicago Says
They are Moral Degenerates.


Chicago, Aug. 14.-"Bachelors are
moral degenerates. From them ema-
nate most of the sin and shame Of the
world. They are lacking In mental
and physical poise. The life Of no
individual is complete unless he or
she have a life companion OF the ol~
poste sex"
Here in a nutshell is the condemna.
tion pronounced upon the unmarried
individual by Or. E. Benjamin An
drews, chancellor OF the University of
Nebraska, in lecture before the stu.
dents and friends of the university Of
Chicago today.
Bachelor men in the audience lis
tened and looked foolish Bachelor
girls gasped in embarrassment The
married folks present smiled APPROX
nj while the brand of the erudite doc.
tor was being applied.
Providence intended that men and
women should marry" continued the
speaker. "The world was made for
the family and not for the individual.
The unmarried n hdividual OF marriag.
able age has no place in society or In
the scheme of the universe. lndivid-
uals who do not form legal ties with
the opposite sex will form illegal ones.
The world does not want that kind Of
ties. Marriage is a good thing The
great men and women of the world
the ones whose lives were symmetri-
cal and whose works were best for
posterity-have been married"

DRIVEN TO DESPERATION.
SeaSick Maiden Gives Up Every.
thing, Including Her Love for
Her Lover.


The maiden was suffering with seasick-
ness. In fact, she was, ''at the time when
the incidents of this story open, a veritable
NAL de mermaid. Her lover, whose heart
ached at her most unromantic gaspings over
the rail and her agitated and strenuous
effort to lamp the hole in the bottom of the
sea, approached her tenderly, relates the
Los Angeles Herald.
TT is too bad" he said, idiotically.
Isis it," she asked, satirically, as she
again made Pelee-oid demonstrations.
Too bad you had to give up" ne contin-
ued, with the same beautiful intelligence
that characterizes all persons who try to
render first aid to the seasck
Yes" she said, with exasperated savage
ness, as she wiped the tears from her red
dening lids. 81 have given up everything
but my love for you; and now"-she made a
wild reach for the rail once more, and, after
a few moments, she completed her sentence
there, that's gone, too"
But they made up again when she was
better.

What the Union Pacific is doing in en-
cheering improvements is commended to
other companies that operate in parts of
the country where no such difficulties are
are economic roads, and they invite traffic.
The wild yanks and alarming rolls to which
passengers are subject on some OF them
cause train sickness, which is a form of
sea sickness, and headache, and they cause
a rapid deterioration of cars and engines.
Those railroads make the best bid for
patronage that promise not merely speed,
but comfort, and steadiness is the more
comfortable, because it indicates security.
We have been eager to extend the mileage
OF this country. Now We might show some
expedition. in reducing it by following the
example of the Union Pacific in straighten-
ing needless turns and lowering or raising
needless grades.-Brooklyn Eagle.

traction of charges made in an ar

tracts. Gaines has taken the ques-
ton under advisement.

Postponed for a Year.

The interstate miners scale con-
vention, in session at Pittsburg, has
decided to make a demand on the
operators of the district that the
union be recognized and that a new
scale be agreed upon to take the
place of the one that expires Sep
TENDER 1. Heretofore some of the
companies have refused to recog-
nize the union. The miners decided
to postpone the strike for year and
will make the best possible agree
ment with the operators for that
time. This action was taken in ac-
cordance with an address by Presi-
dent Reese, of Iowa, who urged the
miners to wait until the anthracite
strike was settled.

Catholic Priests Hi. Victims.

stranger, claiming to be from
Cincinnati, has been working a clever
swindling scheme on a number OF
Catholic priests in central Kansas.
He represents himself to be a LAWYER
In whose care has been left legacy
to several Catholic churches in this
state, the donor being Cincinnati
woman, formerly a resident of Kan
sas. Mr.. Stranger carries the check
in his pocket, which is turned over
to the priest on the payment of the
attorneys fee of SIS. So smooth is
his scheme that every man he sees,
even though he does not accept the
check, feels as though he should, for
his story is very plausible one.
At Hays City the priest in charge
of the parish paid the So and &C.
cepted the check for $500, which he
had cashed at the local bank, but
which the priest was later informed
was no good, and that, besides losing
the SIS, he would also be compelled
to pay the protest fees. The people
are warned to be on the lookout for
this fellow, who is a man apparently
60 years of age.
