That's right-all get in the case is a
lass!
know I'm supposed TO be silent and
meek,
But, hang it! I'm bound to get reckless
and speak.
They're buzzing about what the bride
is to wear;
They're buzzing about how she'll fix
up her hair;
They're quarreling over the bridal
1 listen in silence to all that they say
They treat me as though l was chained
TO my DOOM
Alack! what am I? / am only the
groom.
The best can don is some black and
some white.
A horse-collar vest and a bad case or
fright
MY hair will be combed az us cornbed
every day
I'd surely get mobbed n lugged
bouquet.
I've got 20 be meek and try bravely e
emile--
The m6ekness Will stand me IN hand
after while.
Sing on o. the beautiful bride and be-
bloom.
But don't mention mel am only the

Then kindly forget me ana hasten rich

COLLEGE MEN As "sTRIKE BREAK

Frequently Of late the newspapers of
have contained items telling of college
students taking the places of striking
cabmen, carpenters and other work.
ers. In some instances the students
have declared themselves to be strike
breakers" and given it to be under
stood that they did not in the least
mind having "a little fun" with the
strikers in the way of fight. Some
few days ago a Yale man driving a
cab in New York was arrested for
assault.
In Chicago students of the university
have shipped as iremen on lake steam
ers others are driving trucks and
drays, while some few have taken the
places of striking walters in the no.
tells and restaurants. In Philadelphia
a number of University of Pennsyl-
vania men took the places of striking
carpenters and completed a piece of
building work that had been suspend

of the strikers against the students is
strong.
President Harper of the University
of Chicago a day or two ago declared
in no uncertain terms against college
Strike breakers" He said they were
interfering where they had no bust
ness and their actions, if persisted in,
would injure the colleges. And he is
about right. The probabilities are that
there are a few college students that
need to earn money during their vaca-
tons for the purpose of defraying
school expenses. Nobody can object
to their working. But the great ma
jority of the strike breakers 1t seems,
are sons of well-to-do families who go
into the thing for the fun and excite
ment of it. They are merely tempo
rary workers at best, without thought
of retaining the positions they take
during a strike. Their interference set
ties nothing, but it does create a hard
feeling against not only the young
men but the colleges in the breasts
of a very powerful social element. 1t
would seem to be the part Of wisdom
for the young men to let strike break
ing alone.

The report is that Bobby" Wal
racing. He is the champion of his
class and would probably remain SO
for some time to come. Yet it is not
difficult to see the wisdom of Wal
thour's decision. The follower of the
motor in the big wooden bowl called
coliseum" takes his life literally in
his hands at every performance. A
broken chain, a punctured tire, dis
abled motor, or any one of a dozen
other possible accidents, means acct
dent and possibly sudden death to the
pace-follower. Three men have been
killed at the game during the past
twelve months-Nelson, McEachern
and Elkes. Nelson fell under a pacing
machine the rapidly revolving crank
struck him on the leg and tore out
flesh to depth of six inches. He
died of blood poisoning. The chain of
McEachern's pacing machine broke;
he struck the rear wheel, shot high
into the air and struck a projecting
board on the upper part Of the track.
1t pierced his jugular vein, and he died
within twenty minutes after reaching
the hospital. Elkes' rear tire burst;
he was thrown in front of the motor
and so terribly mangled that he died in
the ambulance on the way to the hos
pital Bobby Walthour Is himself
a mass of scars and bruises from acct
dents on the track. That he has not
been killed is rare good luck. One of
the foremost promoters of motor-paced
cycling says that its popularity is due
to the fact that the people expect to
see somebody killed." that unless the
sport were fraught with gravest dan
ger to the riders the people would not
go out to see it. Is this true? Do the
people want blood, and possibly death,
for the money they pay at the gate?
Ten years ago bicycle races were con-
tests between men, not machines.
When Zimmerman and Sanger raced
the interest was intense: but it was
not question of whether one or the
other had the faster pace-makin0 M
chine. 1t was the individual, not the
motor, that determined the outcome.
Why may not bicycle racing be put on
the old basis once again? Horses do not
need machines to pace them; why
should men?

Once fate has made a miscue. Rich
ard Harding Davis was not in Bel
grade to witness the tragic taking-off
of King Alexander and Queen Draga,
and take their last words. This seems
almost inexplicable and unbelievable,
and yet it is true. And a remarkable
feature of It all is that Mr.. Davis was
in the Balkans. waiting for something
to break loose. up to within a few
weeks of the bloody revolution in Bel
grade. Only a few days ago he ar
rived in New York. after having
grown impatient with waiting on the
Balkan war cloud. II really seems a
monstrous injustice 10 Mr.. Davis that
the servians did not pull or their rev.
olution and butchery while he was
near at hand 10 write II up.

"AND OBEY"

The General Synod of the Reformed
Church in America, recently in SEES
sion in New Jersey. voted that the
words "and obey be left out of the
marriage ceremony. The synod no
doubt feels that it has taken a step in
advance to the end of putting the
sexes upon a common basis. The mar
riage ceremony did not require that
the man "obey." but only the woman.
By eliminating that word, the obliga-
ton rests equally upon each party to
the marriage contract.
But, in actual life, how much differ
ence will the striking out of the word
make? How many wives have obeyed
their husbands merely because the
promise at the altar required them to do
so? When woman wills she wills, and
when she won't she won't, and that is
about the size of it. If she is happily
mated she renders obedience to her
husband of her own free will and ac-
cord; not because "obey" CHANGED to
be among the words of the ceremony,
but because she wants to. It is her
chief delight to add to the pleasure of
her husband, hence the voluntary and
sweet obedience. And the same obser-
walton applies equally to the husband.
He "obeys" as well as the wife. 1t is
mutual concession, each to the other,
based on good will and affection and
not upon the wording of the ritual.
But if mutual affection and the desire
to please is lacking, there is no power
that can compel obedience. There may
be semblance of it, by reason of fear.
but it is a hollow mockery as COM
pared with that obedience which is
contemplated in the ritual. where it is
coupled with love and honor.
1t is true that the injunction to
"obey" was laid on the woman in an
age and at time when women were
not accorded as many rights and priv
ileges as they are to-day. But no wom-
an has lost anything by it. Reduced TO
the last analysis, it all depends upon
the individuals who are parties to the
marriage and not upon the wording of
the contract, or sacrament Therefore
1t does not make any real difference
whether "obey" is in OF out of the
marriage ceremony.

Magistrate Crane of New York city
is a severe critic Of women. He says
they cannot identify anybody beyond
the possibility of a doubt and he has
on several occasions refused to hold
prisoners OH the Identification of wom-
en-. During the course of case be-
fore him a day or two ago he animad-
verified upon feminine failings as fol-
lows: ''Women's 'carelessness is the
cause of a great deal of trouble in the
world. They have no idea of law, and
they rush their troubles into court on
the spur of the moment, and involve
innocent parties through their care
lessness. Women should be made to
think, and they should be compelled
to wear their money and jewels in Sc
cret pockets. If these two things were
carried out we would have fewer cases
of mistaken identity and filched pock-
etbooks on the docket"

Science suffered a sad rebuff in the
Adirondacks last week. DR.. w. Seward
Webb had imported rainmaker from
Texas, with the promise that he should
have a substantial honorarium If his
bombs had the effect of bringing plen-
tiful showers upon the parching and
burning mountains. The rainmaker had
no more than got his paraphernalia
unpacked than thunder clouds were
seen in the sky, and before he had
fired bomb or performed an mean
tation the fioodgates OF the heavens
were opened and the rains descended
copiously. Had the precipitation been
five hours later, the Texas rainmaker
would have got the credit for the
whole thing and gone home more than
$1,000 richer. AS it was, Dr. Webb got
all the rain he wanted. at the hand
of Providence, and saved the money
he was to have paid TO the man from
Texas. II WAS a cold deal" 70 science.
