THE FOES OF MARRIAGE
Subject of DR.. Andrews Address at
Chicago Universitv.

Chicago, Aug. BE. Benjamin And
rews, chancellor of the University of
Nebraska, in a lecture upon 1.-The Foes
of Marriage at the University of Chi
cago, today, declared that the American
divorce laws are SO loose that thew are
a curse both upon parents and their
children. Professor Andrews also claim
ed that a bachelor has no place in the
social scale and that to marry a con-
sumptive is a crime. Advice to persons
intending marriage was plentiful in DR..
Andrews lecture. "Hasty marriages do
more evil to the marriage relation than
anything else he declared. 'FarIy
marriages ought to be discouraged. No
one should marry before the age of Il.
Twenty-Five is the best age
1.-The ease with which divorce is Sc
cured in this country is the greatest foe
to marriage, and, in fact creates di-
vorces which otherwise would not have
been thought of. The injustice done to
children by a divorce in the family is SO
great that no language can do justice to
it, No one who has has ever been dj-
vorced can pass through the experience
unframed. With it goes the best pos
sibilities of a life of service to this
world never to return"

he was seized by spasm of vomiting.
This continued for nearly an hour and
was so violent he could not be remov-
ed meanwhile to the hotel.
Physicians were hastily summoned
and when the vomiting had been
checked Mr. Altgeld was carried to the
Hotel Munroe, across the street. He
retained consciousness and urged the
newspaper men not to publish any,
thing concerning the occurrence, lest
it should needlessly alarm his wife.
Shortly before midnight he became I'M
conscious, remaining in this condit: on
until death.
Mr.. Altgeld came to Joliet Tuesday
afternoon, having been advertised as
the principal orator for the big Will
county pro-Boer meeting. He said he
was not in the best of health, being
troubled by some apparently unimpor-
tant stomach ailment. He would not
allow this to interfere with his engage
ment, however, his great interest in
the South African struggle having
been heightened by the announcement
of the Boer success in the capture OF
General Methuen.
Ever since the failure of the Globe
Savings bank in 1896, in which he was
involved, Mr.. Altgeld has not been
well and for some months after the
Spalding crash it was feared that his
life was in peril.

Chatham, Mass, March 1S-Seven
members of the crew of the Monomoy
lifesaviDg station, including the cap
tain, were drowned while trying to
reach a distressed barge in terrific
sea. One boatman, Surfman Ellis, was
rescued by a sailor from the barge

disaster could not be learned. The
men who persisted are: Captain Mar
shall Eldridge, South Chatham; Edgar
Small, Harwich; Elijah Kendrick. Har-
wich; Osborn Chase, Harwich; Arthur
Rogers, North Harwich; Thomas Foy,
South Chatham; Valentine Nickerson,
Harwich.

the barge and had taken on board five
persons from the barge and was re.
| turning to the shore when it capsized.
These men were lost in addition to the
crew. making IL in all who persisted.

Senator Penrose Submits Report on

Washington, March IS. Senator
Penrose, chairman of the committee
on immigration, submitted a report on
the Chinese exclusion DILL which he re-
ported on few days ego. He says
that the sentiment of the American
people is crystallized against the ad
mission Of Chinese ]aborers to COM
pete with the workingmen of the Unit
ed States. The Chinese government
has agreed heretofore, in treaties that
Chinese laborers shall be prohibited
from entering the United States. Aft
er reciting the acts relating to Chinese
exclusion the report says,
under the administration of the ex-
listing laws many of the evil results of
the previous unrestricted immigration
of Chinese have been nullifed and un-
der their protection American labor
has regained much that was lost by
former competition of Chinese cheap
labor
ut is obvious, however, that the for
mer evils are not forgotten nv the

no Signs Of Aba:ing.
London, March 1.-THE smallpox
epidemic in London shows no signs of
abatement. In the thirty-three weeks
since the beginning of the outbreak
there have been 1855 deaths. There
were eighty last week, which is more
than in any preceding week. During
the day forty-three fresh cases were
notified.
The failure to check the epidemic is
causing disGuietude and arousing fears
that the success Of the coronation sea-
son may be affected and visitors kept
away from the capital Tradesmen
and others, however, are more perturb.
ed on account Of what is far more like
ly than this result, namely, the con-
slant reports of enormous prices de-
manded for accommodation in June
and for seats along the professional
route. Business in this direction is
still slack
