Sister Declares She is Notand Never Was
 Violent

New York, Sept. 2.-Miss Alice W. Cayvan declares the report untrue that her sister, Miss Georgia Cayvan, the actress, has been taken from the sani- tarium. in Flushing, L. |. to Boston. Miss Cayvan says further that her sis- ter is not blind, as reported, although her eyesight is somewhat affected. She can readily recognize her friends.
 She is not and never has been violent. On account of her physical Hines her mind is weakened, although she is en- tirely rational at times. Her condition, says the sister, is more one of weak ness than suffering, and she Is always in happy mood. ,,-

 New London, Conn. Sept. 2-The defending forces in the New London district are tonight on the alert, and awaiting an attack by the navy. At midnight no decisive move had been made by the fleet Of Admiral Higginson.
 At that hour General Macarthur left his headquarters and boarded his yacht
 Kanawha for the night, leaving Major
 Harrison in charge.
 The impression prevails here that Newport is the point which will be next attacked, although the presence
 of three vessels, supposed to be battle ships, in Gardiners Bay. causes con- siderable uneasiness. They can be
 seen plainly from Fort Wright and the
 searchlights are kept on them con- tinually.
 The defending force is all at sea in
 regard to the next move to be made by
 Admiral Higginson and every possible precaution has been taken to guard
 against a surprise. Early in the even ing it was feared that an attack would
 be made on headquarters. This Is hard ly to be expected, however, for the weather conditions are against the
 navy, and it is believed to be impossi- ble for them to safely reach point, without being observed, at which they 1 could land enough men to overpower i the defenders.
 Newport, R, l.. Sept. 2.-From the
 time the enemys ships disappeared off
 Brenton's Reef lightship this morning until shortly before dark tonight there was little disturbance of warlike na- | ture at the land defenses in this vicin- l ity. The fog which shut in thick before daybreak continued to cut off observa- 1 tions off shore until about 5 o'clock,

Driver Blamed.
 Hartford, Conn.,, Sept. 2.-Anzella trotted two slow heats in the Charter Oak $l0,000 event to-day and then went in and won in three straight heats. The race was marred by bad accident in the last heat when Idolita and flaw thorne came together, both horses go- ing down. The accident happened at the three-quarter pole and the major ity of the 5000 spectators left the stands, crossing the infleld to the scene of the accident. The horses and driv- CTS were found to be uninjured. Both drivers blamed the other, but the fault was found to lie with Driver Tozier fouling the wheel guard of Hudson's sulky. Idolita had won two heats and held good position in the heat which won for AnZella the race In the first heat Anzella broke at the start and again in the back stretch. Metallas gave Idolita. a hard drive and 9za5asin broke badly. In the second heat Metal las led, but Anzellas passed in the back stretch and fdolta took the heat The
 
 Ozanam coming fast and getting sec ond place. The fourth heat looked good for Hawthorne, but he broke at the wire and though Anzella had broken twice she came in a winner The fifth heat was an easy win for the favorite. 1 The pool sellers evidently feared Di- rect HaPs bursts of speed and no pools were sold on the 30 pace favorite He won in straight heats and though the time he made was fast, he could have gone better. Greenline sold :or second place at even money. To win the third heat and race Direct Hal had to pace the last quarter fin better time than 30. Greenine, who led at the three-quarter pole, did the quarter in 30 IA and Di- rect Hal was two lengths behind Green 1 line when time was snapped at the stretch mark.
 Eula Mac sold favorite at 50 with the l field 70 in the 2:16 trot but Scott Hud- son drove Prince Selma to win after Golden had taken a heat with Silver Glow. Hal Fry continually broke in scoring and in heats but in the third heat he went remarkably fast and it was only by the hardest driving and in a whipping finish that Golden took the | heat with Silver Glow.
 | Previous to starting the 2:11 pace Billy H., sold a favorite at 50 with the field 65 but Don Riley tok the second. 1 third and fourth heats. The judges be- lieved that Bill H., had been pulled and | in the last heat substituted Driver Geers for Fisher. In scoring Bill H. showed the greatest speed and appar ently wanted to win but the heat was Don Riley's in easy fashion. Hudsons s 1 horse led at the half and at the three quarter pole had such lead that 1t was impossible for Betonlca to catch him though Tozier drove hard to win. The summaries:

With the old year the common
law marriage plan of matrimony
went out in New York, and has
been superseded by new law re-
cognizing marriage by civil con.
tract. This will do away with the
abuse of designing persons, and the
services of clergymen, justices of
the peace and aldermen are no lon
ger necessary to the marriage knot.
BY the signing of written agree
ment in the presence of two wit
nesses, acknowledging it before a
notary and filing the paper with the
county clerk, any man and woman
may legally we'd in the State of New
York. The last clause of the new
law has aroused criticism If both
parties contract marriage but ne
glect to record it within six months
through carelessness or the intent of
the husband or wife the marriage
will be invalid Daily States.

Democratic reorganization in New
York is much debated, and it is
suggested that it may come about
as it did when Samuel J. Tildep
broke up the rule of Tammany I'M
der Tweed. The independent Dem
ocrats who assisted in the election
of Mayor Low are still Democrats
on National questions. These men.
a New York correspondent writes,
should not be classed as enemies of
the Democratic party because thew
are now in position Of antagon1sm
to the Croker organization. Dis
trict Attorney elect, Jerome and
Comptroller-elect Grout are not
Republicans because Of their al
lance with the fusion movement.
and while they are pledged to Seth
Lows programme of non partisan
ship in municipal legislation they
will continue to take deep and,
probably, an active interest in
Democratic politics. During next
year they will be in positions of
not enjoyed by any
other Democrats in New York
City, and it is by no means impos-
sible that when the State campaign
opens next fall, those in control of

compelled to make overtures to

ganization NAV be affected BY reg

Much is being said about the per.
sonnet Of this country's Representa-.
ton at King Edwards coronation.
1t used to be that any American
citizen of education, common sense
and good manners was competent
to represent this republic at Eu-
ropean courts and it didnt matter
very much if we were not repre-.
sented at all at the GROWING OF
kings and queens. 1t is suggested
that Gen. Miles, or Admiral Dewey
or ex-President Cleveland, or all
three of them, be delegated to re-
present Uncle Sam at the corona
ton. What they are to do after
they get there is not known, except
It be participation in the idola-
trous obsequiousness which char
acterizes occasions of that kind. 1t
is safe to say that the masses Of
Americans are supremacy indiffer-
ent to the whole thing. In the best
days of the republic the people of
this country were inclined to heed
the advice of Thomas Jefferson who
wrote:
''Let US turn with adherence
from these sceptered sceIera,s, and
disregarding our own petty differ
ences OF opinion about men and
m easures, let us cling in mass to
our country and to one another,
and bid defiance, as we can if
united. to the plundering combina-
tons Of the old world"
The sage of Monticello spoke
these words in 1916. But since that
time things have changed. Drunk
with power and the spurious glory
of an unjust war, the Federal adj
not only wnks ap-
provingly at the ''plundering COM
binations" of royalty, but parhci-
pates In the plumber. 1t may be
diplomacy to send our big men to
London foI the coronation of KING
who is engaged in waging a war of
against brave people
struggling for their liberty, but to
he average citizen it seems strange
hat this great Republic should be
called upon to go into that kind of
business.

The consensus of opinion is that
Gen. Miles was entitled to endorse
Admiral Dewey's opinion of Ad-
miral Schley without being humi-
lated by the rebuke of the secre-
tary of war and the more insulting
one of President Roosevelt, de-
livered before a mixed company.
He should at least have had respect
and courtesy from these officials.
The Cincinnati Enquirer, in this
connection recalls General Miles,
services, not as a holiday and de.
partment soldier, but in the stress
and perils of the civil war:
Thousands of people may have
forgotten that General Miles was a
growth of our citizen
that he fought as a volun-
teer in the battles OF the Peninsula,
before Richmond and was at An
tietam; that he was colonel of al
regiment when the present president
was an infant; that he earned a
medal of honor for distinguished
gallantry at the battle of Chancel-
that he was made a hriga-
der general of volunteers for DIS
services at the battle of
he Wilderness and Spottsylvania
Court House. and that in 1864 he
vas breveted Major General for
highly meritorious and distin-
yuished conduct throughout the

The people Of St. Martinville are
up in arms because some thought
less person has trimmed and other
wise disfgured the tree under which
the love-sick Evangeline is said to
have rested her tired limbs in her
futile search for her unhappy Ga
briel. The traditional story is that
this very tree, which has been so
ruthlessly shorn of its foliage BY a
cold cynicism, sheltered the luck
less maiden after her toilsome
journey from Acadia. There the old
man-we don't remember his name
just now-told her that Gabriel had
wondered away in the hope of meet
ness. Brokenhearted the poor girl
opened the larger blade of her pen
knife and outlined the initials of
her long-lost lover through the bark
of the tree. The rest of the story
is too we'll known to need repeti,
tion-the sad and pathetic cul-
after Evangeline had found
solace in religion and Gabriel had
been rewarded for his sublime de-
votion by the sweet ministrations of
his old sweetheart who had become
a nun. It is not strange that a tree
whose hospltable shade gave strength
aud courage to the faithful Evan
geline should be held in genuine
affection by the chivalrous people
of St. Martinville. But in the
meantime It will be we'll to remem-
Der that wood-choppers are a pro-
sale race and if there are any more
Evangeline oaks it will be wise to |
Keep a close watch on them.
