Law, The ORGANIC RULE,
MEASURES THE RHYTHM Of LOVE
By CHARLES E LIE BARBER Attorney York

IN searching for the poetry Of law. one
must not seek the poetry OF love;
for It must be remembered Love and
Law are intermingIed. It has al
ways been so. Ever since the birth Of
love law has existed. While ages ago il
may have been neurological. today il
sometimes presents itself practically-for
instance, in a breach OF promise, when #
becomes the reality Of romance.
Cupid throws his darts; and 10. pas

great case has ever occurred where a
woman has not been at the bottom OF t..
Eve existed in the first case; the great
murder trial just completed proves the
second.
All the emotions and passions Of human
nature are found in the law and these
emotions are the very essence and life
% love.
To be alive is TO love, and TO love is
to find the expression in ones heart Of
every live emotion The very order and

RETURN OF CoNSUELo.
Duchess of Marlborough at Home
First Time in Seven Years.


First Time in Seven Years.
New York Special
Consuelo. Duchess of Marlborough, for
the first time since her marriage, seven
years ago, returned today to the land of
her birth With her mother Mrs. o. H. P.
Belmont, o. H p Belmont and Mr. and
Mrs William X Vanderbilt. Jr. she was a
passenger on the Kronprinz Wilhelm.
They had planned a joyous home COM
ing, but the occasion was turned to one
of sorrow when the news was received at
quarantine of the tragic death of Mrs.
Vanderbilt's brother, Charles l.. Fair.
which occurred several days after they
sailed. In view of the death of Mr.. Fair
the plans of Mr.. and Mrs. Belmont for
the entertainment of the Duchess are in
abeyance
When she left the steamer she had a
handbook in her hand. The presence of
numerous photogra pliers did not intimi-
date her, although she had been warned
that there was masked battery of cam
eras assaulting her First to greet her
nurse who kissed her. Mrs Belmont
walked down the gangplank with her
daughter.
Many of the women present remarked
on the beauty of the simple gown of the
Duchess 1t was green crepe de chine over
white taffeta. About her neck was a
brown chenille boa, and her waist was
encircled by cream colored sash, which
had brown polka dots. The hat was of
straw, with trimmings of brown and
white.
On the pier the Duchess was met by
Harold Vanderbilt and Coleman William
Jay. AS an international courtesy two
special inspectors had been sent down
the bay to examine her luggage and that
of the party, and there was little delay.
Mr.. and Mrs. Belmont and the Duchess
went at once to the Waldorf-Astoria.
They will start for Newport tomorrow
afternoon. Imperative social engagements
in England make it necessary for the
Duchess to return by the last of next
month. She will be for at least thre
weeks in Newport and for a few days at
Hampstead.

Judge Harlan of Tallapoosa.

Dadeville, Ala, Aug. 20, 1902
Editor The Advertiser:
In undertaking to give a list of the
Executive Committee from the Fifth Dis
trict who favor the nomination of Gov
ernor Jelks, you fail to mention the name
of j. j. Harlan. In this you have done
Judge Harlan a great injustice There is
no more ardent supporter of Governor
Jelks in the district than Judge Harlan.
The friends of both Judge Harlan and
The Advertiser were very much surpris-
ed that you should have done him such
an injustice especially in view of the
fact that a representative of The Adver-
tiser spent several days in this county
and knew that Judge Harlan is not only
a supporter of Governor Jelks, but that
he is chairman of the Jelks Campaign
Committee in this county. | hope your
paper will do what it can to correct the
wrong impression that has been created
by your publication. Voter.
