In Austria Children of Fourteen
Years May Be Made Man and Wife.
Persons who think they are "oier young
to marry yet" should look abroad and see
what is thought in other nations about the
proper age for matrimony. In Austria a
boy and girl having arrived at the age Of IA
are considered to be old enough for matri-
monial purposes, and the law allows them
to marry and begin housekeeping as soon
as they please. In Germany a man is not
considered to have arrived at a marriageable
age until he is IS, and in France and Bel
gium the man must be IS and the girl I5
In Spain the bridegroom must have arrived
at the mature age Of IA and the bride must
be a staid young lady Of II. The law is the
same in Portugal
Hungary has a funny marriage law. For
Catholics the marriageable age is considered
to be "a for the boy and Il for the girl but
for Protestants it is IS for the boy and Is
for the girl Why this distinction? In
Switzerlandand Greece the ages are "a for
the boy and ~ for the girl, the same as in
Spain and Portugal In Spain, Greece and
Portugal boys and girls mature rapidly, and
boy Of IL is as old physically as a boy Of
I8 in more northern countries, but it seems
strange that the hardy mountaineers Of
Switzerland where there is no such excuse
for child marriages, should set such an early
age for matrimony
For really youthful marriages one should
go to Turkey. There the law allows boy
and girl who can walk prope rly" and who
understands the meaning Of the necessary
religious service to be united for life. In
Bulgaria and Servia girls are allowed to
marry as soon as they cease to be babies,
and the girl who is not engaged by the time
she is 10 is considered a hopeless old maid.

Reviewed the case, and found

And statesman true, whose seal

And wickedly abused,

Will this great wrong undo,
And set the matter right

Sacred to the Memory
OF
MAJOR EDMUND OGDEN
Erected by His Friend,
Joseph 0. Sawyer.

It will be recollected that several
years ago the government sent out
surveying parties to find the geograph-
ical center Of the United States. These
parties, coming in from different di-
rections, met at the grave of Maj. Og'
den, and the monument marked the
exact spot they were looking for.
Truly, "Truth is stranger than fiction"
Tt is situated on an elevation which
can be seen for many miles, and it
seems fitting that the center OF this
great country should be marked by
the last resting place of one who gave
IN his life for it and was a promising
pioneer officer Of the frontier army
service.

GOOD JOB FOR. MAST.
Cartoouist Now Is Consul General at
Guayaquil, Ecuador.
Although Born Abroad He = a
American of the Highest Type
The Father of Pictorial Art in
Weekly JOurnalism.

Thomas Mast, the veteran cartoon
list, is again prominently before the
public, having recently been appoint
ed consul general to Guayaquil, Ecua-
dor. Mast was born in landau, Bavaria,
in $780, His father was musician OF
ability, and held position in the
Bavarian army; but in '46, having re-
ceived a timely warning of the ap-
proach of the revolution which later
swept over Europe, he emigrated to
America, where he became member
of the famous Philharmonic society, OF
New York city. The son, Thomas,
was educated in the public schools OF
that city, and early displayed marked
artistic ability. After few months
of study under The odore Kaufman,
he began to furnish sketches Of Frank
Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper, which
accepted and appreciated his work
from the first. Before he was 2oyears
of age the New York Illustrated News
sent him to England to sketch the
great international prize fight between
Heenan and Sayers. Soon after that
memorable affair, Mr.. Mast went to
Italy and joined the army of Carl
baldi, and served throughout the vic
torious campaign in Sicily and Gala
bria. During this time he contrib
uted numerous "battle pictures" to the
illustrated press of New York, Lon
don and Paris, and as an aide on Gen
n oribo 11i's 81 10 ff h WAS on tru st ed wit h
several diplomatic missions of impor'
lance.
Returning to the United States in
1861 with an experience and training
enjoyed by no other American artist,
he was we'll equipped to prove himself
a factor in the stirring days of the
civil war. He was connected with
Harper's Weekly, and his work in that
periodical soon placed it among the
| foremost journals of the day. Mr.
Mast espoused the cause of the union
