WILL BUILD STABLE
 NEXT TO THEATRE
THE CITY COUNCIL DEFEATS AN ORDINANCE WHICH WOULD PRO- HIRIT THE BUILDING OF ONE NEXT TO THE JEFFERSON.

The Birmingham Livery company will be permitted to erect stable on It's lot on Second avenue next to the Jefferson the atre.
 This will be the result of the action Of the city council last night in defeating an ordinance to prohibit the location of a livery stable within fifty feet of any school house, church, theatre or private residence in Birmingham The judiciary committee made an adverse report on this ordinance and the council sustained it's report.
 Since the proposal of the Birmingham Livery company to erect a stable on this lot the owners and others interested in the Jefferson theatre have brought much influence to bear to prevent 1t. Petitions protesting against it were handed to the visitors of the theatre requesting them to sign the same and hand them to mem- bers of the council.
 The judiciary committee, to which was referred the proposed ordinance. held an executive session just before the meeting of the council to consider the matter. Representatives of the new livery com pany and of the Jefferson theatre were present and a warm discussion ensued, during which the lie was passed between a member of the board of education and one of the owners of the Jefferson.

A MARRIAGE CRUSADE.
BY ARTHUR SETON.

question here suggests itself which is this: To whom would parents prefer to entrust the education of their children the unmarried or the married, even if the married are still in the halcyon peroid which soon passes away of their new found bliss? To the experienced to ask the question is to answer It.
 In the complex problems of our new century civilization and from every American point of view, this question of marriage is of the most supreme i'm portance The home is the corner stone of the republic. Uproot it and little worth preserving remains. France, at the present time, furnishes lesson that should not be lost upon all who adhere to the old American ideal of hearth and home. which, in great measure, have made us all that we are-the first among all the nations which have yet come into being.
 To come back to MT. Payne and his "firman" against matrimony. there can be little question that he has transcend ed his authority, that he has taken a step beyond the law, and that if appeal is made to the higher courts, the de- cision will be against him. The great declaration reads that we are all en- titled to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Postmaster General Payne makes exception in the case of the wo- men employed under him. As an official he should be in the latitude and longi- tude of the Bosphorus and not of the Potomac.

TESTIMONY BAD
 FOR MISS BIGGAR
IN TRIAL FOR coNsPIR- AcY TENDS TO SHOW THAT MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE WAS FORGED BY MAGISTRATE.

 MT. Watterson said Dr. Hendricks told him last June that he would either claim for Miss Biggers her share of the estate under the will or lay claim to the whole estate for her as the common law wife of MT. Bennett, or put In a claim for the services she had rendered MT. Bennett during the last years of his life. In July Dr. Hendricks was still undecided. Mir. McNulty testified that he went to the Bayonne sanitarium at Miss Biggar's re- quest and met the doctor who had not made up his mind what to claim for Miss Biggar.
 Henry Croft, clerk in New York sta tionery store, testified regarding the blank certificate signed by MT. stanton, former justice of the peace, setting forth the alleged marriage of Miss Biggar and MT. Bennett. Witness said certificates of
 
 ton were printed December 23, 1900. The date of marriage certificate was January 2, 1897. Secretary Joseph T. Tucker of the Hoboken board of health testified that Stanton had asked him to enter the marriage on records and that he had refused

This was in flat contradiction of some of the testi- inony given at Long Branch last sum- mCr.
 Surprise was expressed when 1t was announced that this closed the case for the prosecution.

cABLEsHIP HEARD FROM.
SiIvertown Proceeding to Honolulu at
 Rate of s.65 Miles an Hour.

San Francisco, December H.-The Asso- ciated Press has received the following message from the cableship Silvertown dated noon today:
 -Four hundred and fifty-1ve knots (525 miles) from shore and proceeding at a speed of eight knots. The terrific seas that had swept the decks for twenty-four hours subsided considerably at midnight There is a heavy swell on today, but the weather is partly clear and pleasant. The indications are for better weather and calmer seas"
 The Silvertown started from her an- chorage six miles off tn shore at 12 o'clock on Monday morning on her way to Hon. olulu, and today's report shows that the vessel has averaged more than 71s knots (about 6.65 miles) an hour since her de- parture.
 The Silvertown had been out 72 hours when the message was sent. At the same rate it will require nine days more to lay the remaining 1870 miles to Honolulu On this basis the Silvertown should reach Hawaii at noon, Friday, Decem- Der 26.

Postmaster General Payne, if he Is gifted with common sense, should rescind before the first day of the coming new year the Turkish firman he issued on the first day of the last month of the second year of the twentieth century, against marriage-the marriage of all who are employed in the great depart ment of federal administration over which he presides. The order of this chief of a party which claims to be, and let it be admitted is in the front line of the vanguard of modern progress, reads like an excerpt from the records of tine ages when women, the very highest of them, were only little more elevated than were the serfs who waited upon them, and did the bidding of their mas culine lords and masters.
 But, considerations of all this lind apart, MT. Payne's mandate is essentially and fundamentally un-American. It in- fringes upon personal liberty that is the right of every man, every woman, to do what to him, or her, seems right to do, provided it does not infringe upon the equal rights of others. In the ques- ton under consideration, there is to be sure the element of contract, which should be sacredly observed on both sides. The women in the employment of the postal service undertake to perform certain duties. They have fitted them selves for the discharge of those duties by education. They have passed examina- tions prescribed by the government and as a reward of merit they have won. Did the question of marriage while in office, ever enter into those examina- tions? And if did not, as 1t did not by what authority by what warrant of law except that he assumes to be law un- to himself, does Postmaster General Payne arrogate to himself the autocracy of an eastern potentate? He cannot pre- duce it. By the supreme court the de- cision has been made that acts prevent ing, or obstructing, lawful marriage are f'contrary to public policy and hence illegal.
 Postmaster General Payne is not, how ever, the only obtuse official who has entered upon this sort of mediaeval war fare against women and marriage. The prehistoric school board of one. of the greatest of American cities has joined in the crusade against marriage, and de- creed dismissal against all the women under its control who venture to look upon the marriage ring with all the sane- tity that invests it.
