Inture and Charges Bribery In
Passage of FIagIer Divorce Law.
Orlando, Fla, June 26-The ninth
annual conference of the Florida State
Epworth League is now in session in
this city. On Tuesday night Rev. w.
j. Carpenter of Gainesville, who was
for three years pastor of the Metho-
dist Church of Orlando, delivered an
address upon the Scope of the Ep-
worth Leagues Influence" He claim
ed that the Lacquer has a distinct and
personal duty to the social and civil
structure, to which he has no right
to be Indifferent. He should not be
guilty of questionable acts in either
social life, business transactions or
politics.
In this connection he turned
out the walls of his condemnation upon
the last Legislature of Florida for the
enactment Of the law commonly spoken
of as the Flagler divorce law. He
claimed that the passage of the meas
ure was secured through bribery, and
that those who supported it were paid
to set aside the word of God. The rev.
erend gentleman claims to have the
evidence to support his contention, and
invites an investigation of his charges.
His audience was a large and intelli-
gent one and the special feature of his
address received undivided attention
Coming as it does from a gentleman
of prominence and in a meeting made
up of delegates from all parts of the
state, 1t created sensation.

City VIII Increase Capacity of It's
Electric Lighting Plant.
Jacksonville. Fla, June 26.-The prob
lem of providing sufficient light for the
city of Jacksonville has recently occu-
pied the attention of the city fathers
with the result that considerable ex-
tension in the electric light plant OPP
Grated by the city has been authorized
and the most modern steam turbines
will be put up, enabling an increase in
capacity of 5000 lights. When the
great rebuilding boom occurred a few
~-onths after the fire, which boom has
Steadily kept up since, there was
great rush to secure electric lights.
The city granted the applications as
made, with the result that the plant
was soon unable to furnish the lights
needed and now there are a large
number of applications on hand that it
has not been possible to fill.
The growth Of the city since the fire
is perhaps best shown by the fact that
there are several thousand more elec-
trio lights in use now than before. these
lights being furnished by the electric
lighting plant which is operated and
owned by the city.

ZEIGLER VS.. SULLIVAN.
Lively Bout Promised by Two Clever
WeIter-Weight<.


Owen H. Zeigler and Twin Sullivan
will meet tonight under the auspices
of the Savannah Athletic Club for a
25-round bout at las pounds. straight
Queensberry rules. The indications are
not only that 1t will be one of the fast
est and most scientific contests that the
club has secured for very many
months, but further that despite the
hot weather the followers of the game
will be able TO see the bout and still
remain comfortable, for the club man
agement has just put in ten electric
fans, and further, unless it rains, will
take out all of The sashes, open all
doors and keep a draught passing
through the hall the entire evening.
Zeiglee and Sullivan finished their
work yesterday. With weather of the
kind that has prevailed during the past
few days training was hot work but the
boys stuck at it and consequently are
in fine form. Sullivan Is always to the
good when he enters the ring while
Zeigler is said to be in better shape
than he has ever been in since his
first appearance, in this city.
Both men have many friends who
will be on hand to urge their favorite
to exert himself. but despite the fact
that both men are popular there is lit
tie or no betting. The sports have
been leery of taking chances.
The main bout tonight will be pre-
coded by a preliminary between Jack

mick of Baltimore. Sheehan. who re-

PRINCE GEORGE, THE HEIR.
lie Is n sailor, and May Rule a.
George v.


George Frederick Albert, who will
rule England. probably as King George
". in the event Of the death of Ed
ward VII. was born on June 3. 1865.
He succeeded to the title Of the Prince
of Wales after the death of his grand
mother. Queen Victoria, and the ele-
walton of his father. He is the only
living son of the new King, his elder
brother. the Duke of Clarence, having
died suddenly ten years ago.
Tie Prince is a natural born sailor
and an enthusiastic naval officer AL
though a shade taller than his father,
being feet 6 inches in hight, he has
not the vigorous constitution OF his
sire. Educated for the royal navy, the
Prince passed his various graduations
with distinction and his promotion to
the vice admiralty Of the English war
fleet was more rapid than that of many
or his predecessors. His skill displayed
on the sea is said to be far greater
than that of his uncle, the Duke of
Edinburgh who was called the Sailor
Prince.
In 1882 he accompanied his brother on
three-year trip around the globe and
ten years later. on the death of his
brother, he took his seat In the House
of Lords as the Duke OF York.
The Princess Mary of Teck, whom he
married in 1898. was the betrothed Of
his brother. The wedding ceremony
was performed in st. James Palace
and was attended by all the members
OF the royal family, by the King and
Queen Of Denmark. the Czarowitz. the
present Car and other distinguished
persons.
Despite the formal announcement at
that time by the Archbishop of Can't
erbury that there was no legal bar to
their union, gossiping tongues say
there are documents in existence to
controvert the official statement. It Is
persistently told that the Prince was
married to the daughter of Sir Michael
Culme-Seymour, an admiral in the
British navy. while the latter was sta
toned in Gibraltar
The Prince and Princess of Wales
made tour of the British possessions
last year. and everywhere were re-
ceived enthusiastically. His speech at
the dinner given In Mansion House on
his return to London was regarded as
a great piece of oratory, and at once
stamped him as a man of ideas.
Should he ascend the throne, ne viii
be the fifth George to reign in Eng
land, and this recalls the ancient Han
overian rhyme which ran something
like this:
George the first was reckoned vile,
Viler still was George the Second,
And what mortal ever heard any good
of George the Third
When George the Fourth to hell de-
scended.
God be praised the Georges ended.
The children of the Prince of Wales
are four In number, and were born in
six years. The birth of the eldest.

that of Prince Albert on Dec, IA, 1895:

Detroit, Mich, June 26.-No surprises
developed in to-day's state Republi-

Gov. Aaron T. Bliss of Saginaw was
renominated for a second term on the

however, by the objection of Editor NJ

bitter fight against Gov. Bliss through

The platform pledges support of the

form opposes all efforts to weaken the
protective tariff, and favors no plan
that would interfere with the indus
