The city of Fit. Wayne must not
feel offended if the state at large eX-
presses its establishment over the new
turn of affairs in its mum ;ipal con-
troll. For once the city appears to
have mayor with backbone, and he
has not only Illuminated against wine
rooms, but he has warned the day po-
lice that he will hold them individ-
ually responsible for violation of the
law against gambling, and against the
wineroom evil. He also proposes to
hold the officers In charge of the day
patrolmen personally responsible for
any laxity on the part of their sub
OrdinateS.

Ex-Governor Shaw, of iowa, the
new secretary of the treasury, has civil
service reform ideas of his own. He
believes in change ct federal officers
for the good of the service. He says
no man should hold a federal position
more than five years, and he is remov-
ing all the old officers of the treasury
department and filling their places
with new men. He believes that when
men have served long in one posi-
ton they get into ruts and it's better
for the government and better for the
men themselves to make changes
every four or five years This gives
the departments the benefit of new
ideas, and often gives 1.-THE men who
Eli clerical positions chance to make
something of themselves, which they
never could do if they plodded aIong
at the same kind of work all their
lives. We believe Secretary Shaw is
right.

A Sensible Man.

Senator Spooner of Wisconsin, is
quoted as saying not long ago that he
did not care to make any more money
because he has enough and besides, if
he were to amass a great fortune 1t
might prove the ruin of his boys. In
Anew of the fact that inherited wealth
has been the means of many young
mans downfall, the Wisconsin sena-
tors observations seem quite sensible
to say the least. Having acquired
enough to keep him in comfortable cir
cumstances the rest of his life, he
can be free from the care and worry
incident to the acquisition and reten-
ton of great riches and can, if he
chooses, devote himfelf to study or to
whatever else That may be most agree
able to him. And with only modest
fortune left them, his sons who are in
dustrious and ambitious young men,
will not be led astray as they might
be. if the incentive to work were
taken away from them by the knowl-
edge that they would some day inher-
it great riches. These individuals
who are inclined to make slaves of
themselves for the sake OF leaving a
fortune behind them when they jour-
neyed hence, might profit by giving
serious thought to what Senator
SpOoner has said.

Kisses and cheers greeted Bryan S
name when it was mentioned at the
Tammany Fourth of July banquet.
The cheers are ominous for the dem
ocracy. There was time when Bry-
an thought New York was a part of
the enemy's country, but as he got
lis, 900 votes more there in 1900 than
he did in 1896, he has a right to as
sumo that he was pretty well treated
in that locality, even though he stood
far behind Mckinley there in both
canvasses. 1t is plain from recent
manifestations that the NebraSkan
has many friends in the Empire state
yet. This is fact that is likely to
give some concern to reorganizers.
The democratic presidential aSpirant
of 1904 who has Bryan ill-will may as
well prepare for overthrow. Either
in the convention or out of it. Bryan
will pass sentence of political death
uDOn him.

A Snake Story.

The spectacle OF snake swallow
ing fat hen weighing six pounds was
witnessed yesterday afternoon by a
few invited guests at hamburger
5000, the show which opened at the
corner of Pratt and Main streets, last
night. The hen was thrown to the
snake alive 1t went down feathers
and all. The act of swallowing prob
ably lasted 30 minutes.
For those who believe this feat in
credible it should be stated that the
snake is 81 feet long and at the thick
est part of its body is as large around
as many ladies waists in Elkhart.
His snakeship is known as an Afri-
can python. He is the youngest and
smallest of three monster reptiles
carried 10y the show. The hen furn-
ished his last meal for six weeks. He
is usually fed every six weeks, but this
hen was extra for good behavior.
When the hen was placed in the
glass case it seemed to realize its dan
ger, but the next instant it was being
crushed between the powerful jaws of
the python. The hen was grabbed
from the side and in short time it
was dead. The python curled itself
around SO as to press the fowl against
fold of its body and then it proceed
ed to work the meal down its throat.
The last seen of the hen was the feet
as the monster twisted its mouth
around so as to get them down in the
center.
The largest snake, Manager Lam
briger stated, was capable of swal-
lowing sheep.-Elkhart Truth.

Love Your Own CITY.

Denver papers contain severe cT;ti-
ciSms Of the rich men of Denver for
their failure to do anything for the
higher life Of the city. The great
citizen is he who feels that it is an
honor to live in his home city rather
than an honor to the city to have him
in it. The Commercial Club, of Indi-
annapolis, did well To offer prize for
the best compositions from the school
children, giving reasons for being
proud of indianapolis. This is step
that will lead them to civic PRIDE
But we ought not to be willing to wait
for the present generation of school
children to grow up for proper de-
velopment of pride in the city. Ed
ucate the children by all means, but
do not neglect the men and women.
OF course we do not mean to say that
the only way in which love of the city
can be manifested is by giving TO it.
The point is that anyone that has the
proper spirit Will always be ready and
glad to do what he can do for his home
tOwn-whether it be little or much.
And when our rich men-as some o.
them do withhold everything and
never think of responding adequately,
if at all, to the demands that are made
on them, the conclusion is that they
care nothing for the city or its well
fare. -IndIanapolis News.

Surprise has been expressed in sew
eral democratic papers that Col. Bry-
an should refuse TO state what course
he would pursue in case the democrat
ic national convention of 1904 should
refuse to re-affirm the Chicago and
Kansas City platforms. These papers
evidently have forgotten what Mr..
Bryan said three or four weeks before
the 1896 convention met in Chicago.
Answering question as TO what his
action would be in case free silver was
repudiated he declared unequiyocally
and emphatically that he would not
abide by the decision of the cOnyen-
ton. Putting this and that together,
there need be very little doubt about
Mr.. Bryan:S attitude in the future

placed premium on college educa-

standard of scholarship that was re-
CURED was a teachers license, but the

MORMON CHURCH DIVORCE.
Supreme Court of Utah Holds That it
Is Invalid.

Salt Lake July 22.-Iu the case of
Rose Z. Roylance. respondent. and the
other two cases which are rclativ"
thereto. the Supreme Court yesterday
in an unanimous opinion, reversed tn"
decision of Judge Hall. who tried the
case. and ordered findings and decree
entered according to such reversal. The
case is of vast Importance TO the pco-
pie of this community. and determines
the legal status of persons who are
sealed for eternity" under the ccre-
mony of the Mormon Church.
About December l, 1872, plaintiff,
who was then Miss Annie Armitage,
was supposed to be on her deathbcd.
and the ceremony known as sealing"
was performed, whereby DR.. John X.
Park and Miss Armtage were to be
husband and wife after death. Miss
Armitagc recovered from her illness.
and March 10, 1872. s!ia and Park
signed document known as "churcn
divorce" whereby they agreed to dis
solve all relations which had existed
between them as husband and wife
After this she married William Hilton
now Il Salt Lake policeman by whom
she has ten or twelve living children.
Dr. Park. during his life time. decided
certain property to Rose u. Roylance.
and this action was brought to recover
title to one-third of said property, to
which Mrs. Hilton claims she is Ell
titled as the legal widow of John X.
Park, deceased. and also for IL family
allowance pending the determination of
the suit. She alleged in her complaint
that she never rclinuuishcd her rights
i'll said real estate and is still the OWL
er of the same. Judge Hall decided
that John X. Park and plaintiff never
became husband and wife. and hence
she was not entitled to any part of the
premises in controversy.
Justice Bartch delivered the opinion
of the Supreme Court and Chief Justice
Miner and Justice Baskin concurred in
the same.
The church divorce is admitted by
counsel for respondent to be null and
void, hence there is nothing to deter
mine OH that point. The opinion there
fore holds that Mrs. Hilton was lawful
ly married to John X. Park and upon
his death became his legal widow. and
as such is entitled to her share of his
estate, which amounts to 100000.

An associate of Mr.. Morgan Is credited

stock of the corporation, said then to be
worth $50y000OOO. In the formation Of

him $l5,0O00O0 in securities, while for
putting through the Metropolitan Trust
Securities company he is accredited with
having received a fee Of $30,OO0,0OO. Or.
securities Of face value Of $l72,O00,O 900
have been turned over to Mr.. Morgan for
his financial services in launching Ave

People who are in the midst OF these
gigantic financial operations say that this
is not excessive remuneration for the
services rendered. It is said to be merely
a question Of ability, and that Morgan
has not only the ability to form the COM
bination. but also TO protect the stock Of
the new concerns. He Is paid in stock.
but that, in Morgan corporation, Is 20
much cash, because he is behind the stock
and makes the company a success.
