SOMETHING REALLY FUNNY.

Gus Tomlin of Columbus has filed
suit for divorce, and his allegations
are rather novel.
Mr.. Tomlin says that Mrs. Harden,
the widow whom he married, "did con-
troll and persuade your petitioner to
become her husband" that he twas
married to her before he knew it, !"
and that he ''was forced to leave his
wife on account of extreme cruel treat
ment."
This queer recital of woes goes on to
saw that he married Mr.. Harden
against the wishes of his father and
mother; that after the marriage his
wife "simply took charge of him and
deprived him of all liberty whatever.
He alleges that his wife did not want
him to visit his parents; that she
would sceld him when he did; that she
was abusive and threatened him With
violence; that she was lnsanely jeal

THE latest newspaper laws are such
that newspapers can arrest anyone for
fraud who takes paper and refuses to
pay for it. Under the law, the man
who allows his subscription to run
along tor sometime unpaid and then
orders it discontinued, or orders the
postmaster to mark it "refused" and
have a postal card notifying the pub
Usher, leaves himself liable to arrest
and fine, the same as for theft. This
law is all right as far as it goes, but it
ouOht to be amended so as to reach
the fellow who is two or three years
in arrears for his paper and has the
temerity to give the collector the
sIborse laugh" when he is asked for
what is due.

was up before Judge Miller Saturday
charged.with cruelty whipping his chilo-

times. his first wife dying and the others
leaving him on account of mistreatment
SO it is alleged. He has three children,
one girl of twelve, who keeps house
for him, and two small boys, all small
for their age. He has been in the habit
of maltreating his children so that their
cries have aroused the neighborhood to
such pitch that forbearance has ceased
to be avirtue, and complaint was finally
made to the police officers and to the
humane agent. The children claim
that their father, upon going to work,
looks up all eatables so that they cannot
get lunch upon returning from school
and applies strap to them with vigor

the girl on Dec. 23d so that when an in

The Military salute.

All salutes, from taking off the hat
to presenting arms. originally implied
respect or submission. OF military sa-
Iutes, raising the right hand to the
head is generally believed to have orig
mated from the days Of the tourna-
ment, when the knights fled past the
throne of the queen of beauty and, by
way of compliment, raised their hands
to their brows to imply that her beau
ty was too dazzling for unshaded eyes
to gaze upon.
The officers salute with the sword
has a double meaning. The first posi-
ton, with the hilt opposite the lips,
is a repetition of the crusaders action
in kissing the cross hilt Of his sword
In token OF faith and fealty, while sow
ering the point afterward implies ell
Their submission or friendship, meaning
in either case that it is no longer nee
essary to stand on guard. Raising the
hand TO the forehead has also been ex-
planned as syn that the weaponed
hand is empty ant in an inoffensive po-
sition, but this reason does not seem
so convincing as the others.

TUESDAY MEETING.

The Tuesday Musical Club met at the
residence of Miss Belle Heinemann on
Tuesday afternoon, January 2. Folk
music was the general subject for study,
with some special attention given Ber-
ceuse or Cradle Song. Mrs. Kickbush
and Miss Heinemann arranged the prg-
gram, and it was one of the most inter
esting ever presented to the club.
The first number was paper by Mrs.
Goodwillie She traced the develop
ment of Folk music, gave its origin,
characteristics, value, and its influence
upon music as an art.
The program contained music of
many different nations. Among those
represented were: Germany, Spain,
Ireland, Poland, Hungary, Norway,
Italy, Scotland and America.
Mrs. Staples, although not on the act
ing division, kindly consented to sing,
and gave some delightful Scotch Bal
lads in Highland costume.
Mr.. Reuter- was at his best and fav-
ored the club with beautiful Volkslied
and Berceuse.
Owing to illness, Mrs. Foster, was I'M
able to sing, but Miss James ssry kind
ly filled her place.
The Bercense, which was under spec
ial consideration, was beautifully illus
trated by Mr. Reuter-, Miss HeinemanD,
Mrs. Speer, and by Mrs. Kickbusch in a
vocal number.
Two piano Duets allowed compari-
son between Spanish and Hungarian
dance music.
A Tuscan Folk song, a vocal duet by
Mrs. Kickbusch and Miss james, and
the Norwegian Bridal Procession by
Miss Harger showed the true qualities
of Folk music.
Mrs. Slaymaker played Schubert
Liszt transcription in her usual artistic
manner.
Miss James sang characteristic Irish
lullaby, and Mrs. Yawkey pretty,
graceful composition, called ''The
Fairies Lullaby"
The February meeting of the club
will be held at Mrs. McEachron's. The
subject for study will be Bach-Pre-
ludes and Passion Music.

MUSICAL TREATS.

The Tuesday Musical Club has ar
ranged for three excellent musical en-
tertainments to be given during the
winter, and has disposed of large
number of tickets, at $500 for the
course, but not enough have yet been
sold to cover the expenses and it will
be necessary for our musical loving
people and those who wish to promote
the love of music and its advancement
in our community, to purchase literally
of the tickets and induce their friends
TO buy.
The first entertainment will be given
by Max Heinrich, on the evening CT
January Both 1t is unnecessary to say
more than that he is a singer of nation
al reputation. He will be accompanied
by his daughter, who is also a vocalist
of high order. Mr.. Heinrich, will rem
der "Enoch Arden" with piano accom-
paniment.
On the 21st of February, the Gamble
Concert Company. will be brought here
under the auspices of the club. Ernest
Gamble, who is at the head of the COM
pany, appeared in Wausau in the Elks
course entertainments, and is a great
fayorite. This will be an evening that
all cannot help but enjoy.
Clara Murray, the harp soloist, has
been engaged by the club for the even
ing of April I'd.
For such an excellent musical course
as the above, the admission fee of SO 90
for the three entertainments is very
small. Itwould cost that amount to hear
any of them in Chicago or Milwaukee,
provided the best seats were taken.
The sale of course tickets will be dis
continued after the first concert, and
single admissions to any of the enter
tainments will be $10O. Tickets can be
purchased of any of the members.
