clerk should go to the Public Charities office,
At the foot of East Twenty-sixth-st. and ask
for Mrs. Epshaw. She represents Superintend-
snt Edwin F. Merwin in such matters, and is
always ready to hear the woman's story in
detail
If the has grounds for leaving her
husband and setting up an establishment OF her
own, if the husband has deserted her, she is
sent 70 a magistrate, who issues warrant for
the husbands arrest: Upon his apprehension
the case is tried, and either thrown out or
weekly almony decided upon. If the latter
and the woman generally wins-the husband
must give a bond of $3.50 that he will pay the
money promptly each week If he refuses to
give a bond and compromise is possible, he
is sent to the Island, to think it over in a
coarse gray suit, the black checks of which are
larger than fashion allows.
There is seldom case where man arrested
for non-support is too poor to pay. Other
rauses than poverty bring the alirnony crowd
to the cashier; i'll assorted natures greed, cruel
ty intemperance, bad temper and the gossip of
neighbors. The fact that the divorce laws IN
this State are stringent is the only thing that
keeps many from breaking the marriage bonds
entirely. As it is, they watch one anothers
lives III the hope Of securing necessary divorce
evidence.
The bonds which the give only cover
year. They supposed to continue the pay
ments but if they do not it is necessary to
hale them into court again. This means serv-
ing a subpoena, and it sometimes causes the
wives a great deal of trouble. One woman
whose husband is a streetcar conductor did
.er own detective work when his bond ran out
the other day. She took her stand at different
corners where his must pass and watched
for him Several times the driver her first
and signalled his conductor. He got out of
sight by throwing himself fiat on the floor of
the car Once they raced the away from
her. She finally caught him, however, and he
has TO pay weekly for another year. Many
men leave the State at the end OF the year, and
thus avoid further payment

RARE -4NIM1LS.
aIaska Furnishes Many for the
Natural History Museum.

Among the recent additions to the collections at
The American Museum of Natural History there
are not many which will interest the layman or
the naturalist more than the specimens which
were secured in Alaska by Andrew j. Stone.
Up to the present time they have been seen only
By some Of the persons through whose generosi-
ty Mr.. Stone was enabled to carry on his work.
Last week, on the eve of his departure for
third trip his friends assembled to bid him
yood luck, and they saw, scattered about the
east mammal hall of the American Museum of
Natural History, the complete Stone collection.
Many of the specimens have been mounted, but
the greater number have not yet reached the
taxidermist, and until they do and are returned
from that department the public cannot ap
preciate the work which has been accomplished
by the enthusiastic Stone. He made his first
expedition in 1897, James NJ. Constable having
given the necessary funds He entered North

named for Mr.. Stone and will be known in the
world of natural history hereafter as the Stone
sheep, also among the notable features of
the collection, and group of these which has
been completed Will soon be placed where it can
be seen by the public.
Mr. Stones present expedition Will take him
TO Kadak Island and the Alaska Peninsula,
with the object of securing for the museum
more big bear specimens, but, as on former Oc-
casions he will not confine himself to any one
species, but will send anything which will throw
additional light on the subject of animal life in
the north country
In that part of the mammal hall which is
open TO visitors there is a model of the Arctic
region, and on this red lines have been drawn 10
indicate the various routes taken by Mr. Stone
These lines show that he has been an indus
trious traveller in a country where travel means
hard work and constant battle against diff
culties, and the friends of the explorer are con-
fdent that when the model is enriched bv addi
tonal red lines the mammal collection Of the
museum will have become larger and more
valuable.

ton recently given for Mr.. Stone and who have
aided the enterprise were DR.. j. A. Allen. John

museum would raise additional $1,000 Mr..

object of which was to secure specimens of
Alaskan and British Columbian mammals and
birds for the museum. The amount of money

friends of the scheme hoped it would be, but
with hardships and discomfort staring him in
the face Mr. Stone started his Journey not
knowing whether he would ever receive any pe-
cuniary remuneration for his services But the
money finally raised, and those men who
contributed toward it will know when they
visit the mammal hail, where the result of the
expedition is now awaiting the orders of the
director to its final disposition, that when
they contributed toward the fund they aided 2

The result of the trip to Alaska was
the securing of eighteen Alaska moose, thirteen

USING PUBLIC PROPERTY.

Among the many other evidences of the Presidents indifference to the pro- prieties, to speak mildly, not the least is his very pronounced habit of using the public property for his own private pur- poses. When he travels on the railroads the finest trains are placed at his dis posal and the cost charged to running expenses" If he wants to take pleas- ure trip on the water one of the gov- ernment vessels is turned over to him absolutely and the public funds foot the bill. Read this from a Washington cor respondent of a Chicago paper:
 The recent refitting of the beautiful cruiser Mayfiower, which is known as 'the Presidents yacht" in order that still more luxurious quarters may be provided for MT. Roosevelt and his fami- ly when they care to go to sea for day or two, has called attention to the fact | that the Mayf1ower is the only ship of the navy which is always barred to | visitors and of whose interior fittings no | photographs are ever seen.
 This is a fair example of Roosevelt's way. There is absolutely no warrant in law or equity for such proceedings. If he should step into the treasury and help himself to few thousand dollars for his own use his partisans would prob ably-we say probably advisedly-feel constrained to criticise his conduct. Is there any difference in principle? The humblest private citizen has just the same right to use a government yacht that the President has, if not used in the public service. These vessels are built at the public expense. They are fitted up the same way. Officers and crew, eatables and drinkables, fuel and all other necessaries and luxuries are paid for by the government and no man, private or official, not strictly on public duty, has a right to use one of them for pleasure trips.
 And this Mayflower must be provided with such fittings and luxuries as would become a Sardanapalus or a Cleopatra. The public is not allowed to know the cost of its fittings. Probably there is some lingering sense of shame left which impels the guilty parties to hide some of their work A royal yacht kept for the I exclusive use of a President and his family is one of the evidences of indif- ference to right which marks Republican rule everywhere. There ought to be Democrats in Congress who will demand an investigation, but there probably are not. Whatever Roosevelt wants seems to be his for the taking.

 Chicago has lost financial credit greatly in the last year or two, being hardly able to sell 4 per cent bonds at par. The streets are dirty, and the street car ser vice is so poor that old and shabby horses are the means of locomotion 0n some of the business thoroughfares, while the cars are filthy and neglected, not to be com pared with those of Louisville.

Prepare for Grain Crops

EdIt0r The Advertiser:
 The farmer who would be an all round success will plant forage seed now. He should plant oats, barley, rye and rape in his cotton when he gives 1t the last blowing. Or. if he wants a fine clover pasture to graze his calves, cows or colts, he should plant mixture of Georgia rye, blue stem wheat and vetch. Nothing will 8Ive Detter results to plant in woods for winter or early spring than crimson clov- CT. Just throw 1t broadcast and run a harrow about through the woods and you will be surprised at the amount that will come up. Of course, it will not do in a pine forest where the undergrowth is thick, but in oak and hickory woods where the trees are large. 1t will do well. A little Italian rye is a fine seed to mix with the clover. If you want something extra fine. plant dwarf essex rape in two and a half foot rows. You can feed your hogs all the winter on 1t and frost and freezes will not stop 1t from growing. We want to call your attention to the difference between ordinary rye, as Is usually sold, and the Georgia or Southern raised. The ordinary rye will hug the ground closely apd will not do half so well as the Georgia, which will stand up and grow much higher.
 Burr clover thrown on your bermuda patch will furnish you fne winter pas- rure.
 Now Is the time to plant these seed, and a wide-awake farmer will not neglect to secure the best seed and plant the same while he can get seasons, thus having his winter pastures well rooted before the winter freezes come. A Farmer.

Scandal Upon Scandal.

Philadelphia Record.
 Not for twenty-five years has the Fed eral public service been so honeycombed with crookedness as 1t Is at the present tune. The administration would like to cleanse Its Augean stable, but 1t cannot How did the multifarious Postoffice De- partment scandals, the army contract scandals, the Indian land frauds-not only the lately disclosed frauds in Oklahoma but the older frauds in Utah-occur? En- tirely through political influence. The men who exerted that influence are as late administration could not prevent the mischief the present administration can still less undo 1t. If 1t should make a genuine effort to do so it would split the Republican party from top to bottom.
 The scandals have got pretty close to the top. Secretary Hitchcock is an hon est gentleman but he has friends. and some of them seem to be very much ''on the make.T

ENDORSE GOLD STANDARD.
Report of French Monetary Com
 mission Presented to Porter,

mission Presented to Porter.
 Paris. Aug. 26.-The report of the French Commission appointed to confer with the United States Monetary Ex- change commissioners has been delivered to Ambassador Porter. It contains a note from Foreign Minister Delcasse showing France Is not prepared to ex- press binding conclusions until she has consulted with the other powers.
 The report endorses the principle of a gold standard for China and other silver using countries. but it points out that the plan is practicable only when judicious control of the coinage is had by the Government and through the creation of an adequate gold reserve. It favors coinage ratio for the Orient. fixing the face value of silver slightly above it's bullion value, similar to the American system in the Philippines The French Commission makes reservations upon the proposed regular purchases of silver on the ground that 1t is impossible to foresee the coun- try's needs for subsidiary and colonial coinage. The semi-of1cial advices from Russia indicate that the commission ap- pointed by Finance Minister Witte has made a similar conclusion.
 The French and Russians considered 1t preferable to establish a uniform sys- tenn in China by beginning on a silver basis and afterwards raising 1t to a fixed gold value. than to begin on a gold standard immediately.

Even in that day the event was featured" receiving the honor of a place in the editorial col umn, with a side-head. On September H. 1851, The Mobile Register printed this news of the race:
