Divorce In Japan.

\ traveller recently returned from
Japan tells Of some of the queer laws
in that country concerning divorce.
"a divorce on the part of the hus-
band is easily obtained One of the
legal causes of divorce ia IF the hus-
bond find the wife too loquacious.'
Yet in all my long experience in Ja-
pan have met only one man who
discarded his wife, and never met
with Il family where dissenson exist
ed, nor have ever heard of hus-
band treating his wife with severity,
although the same cannot be said of
some parents IN law, who consider
their sons wife mere chattel. AS
general rule, the appearance of
girls and women testifies of light
ness of heart not always found in
other climes whore their sisters have
more abundant means of happiness"

GRADUALLY DYING
:. POPE GROWS WEAKER
|HIS WELL-KNOWN SMILE HAS AT LAST
DISAPPEARED.
DR.. MazzOnl Gives a Stat"roent, Showing
That He Cannot Pos. Recover.
His Personal Appearance.

Rome, July 15.-Dr Mazzoni, in
reply to the question, "Can't the
pope recoverY' gave the Associated
Press correspondent tonight the fol-
lowing statement:
Rome, via Condotti 8, July Is.
At the present moment the disease
of his holiness has lost it's character
Of absolute gravity which it uad at
-jts acute period. 1t might he con-
G$idered t." "sve entered the period of

young, but it is impossible to enter

man in his Oath year With him the
physical energy absolutely indls,
,pensable for recovery is lacking.
Pope Leo's organism is perfect, and
as such maintains itself after 90
years Of never interrupted work, but
his motor force is no longer sufficient
for the complex functions essential
to life. In other words, the 50 years
of Pope Leo XIII bring him into
that category of extraordinary long
evity when life is destined to flicker
out independent Of the action of any
pathological complication. The only
service that science and affection can
render is that of struggling to have
this precious existence preserved to
us as long as possible.

HOW THE POPE APPEARS

One of the doctors in attendance
on the pontiff gave the Associated
Press correspondent graphic, but
horrible word picture of Fope Leo ae
he appeared today. That smile
which lighted up the pontiff's face,
even in extreme age, has disappeared
probably forever. The skin is drawn
tightly over the bony framework of
his face. leaving the once bright
eyes staring dimly from the deep
sunken sockets. A grayish pallor
overspreads his countenanoe, but the
most noticeable ravage wrought by
his present disease is the dropping
of the lower jaw, which has made
the popes features take on the fixed
rigidity of death.
THE DAYS CHANGES.
During the day the pope took a
slight amount of nourshment.
Through the morning he WAS quite
restless, shifting uneasly on his
bed and complaining of being unable
to secure an easy position. Later he
became drowsy, and during the after
noon had some sleep.
COSTLY INQUIRIES.
The total number of dispatches
iquiring about the pope's health re
ceived ut the vatican today reached
26,0OO, including soma lengthy
cables from half around the world.
The total cost of these kilograms
is estimated at $4,000. This enor-
nous deluge taxes to the utmost the
resources Of the vaticnn adminiatra
tion. A large force of priests and
seminaries is temporarily aiding the
officials in making responses, which
bear tho signature of Cardinal
Rampolla.

Federal Frand Jury Returns
Seven More Indictments
in Postal Cases.
BEAVERS ARRESTED IN NEW YORK
Several Cases Yet Remain to Be Dis
posed of--Warrants Out for Indicted
indlviduaIs-Leopold Stern Located
Across the Border.

Washington, Sept 9.-After deliber-
Gting for several weeks over a mass of
documents submitted by the postoffic5
inspectors, the federal grand jury re-
turned seven indictments in postal
cases, involving six different persons
All the indictments We're kept of the
public record and both the officials OF
the district attorneys Office and of the
postoffice department refused to di-
yulge names or details of the indict-
ments until the parties indicted are
arrested The identity of the indicted
individuals thus was left matter OF
conjecture. 1t is expected that ar
rests will occur today and that the
postoffice department will have some
announcement to make during the
forenoon.
Work In Washington Almost Finished.
The grand jury's action probably
marks the beginning of the end of the
investigation that has been In prog
ress since the middle of last March.
Voluminous evidence has been lai1
before the grand jury as the result OF
tie inquiry, anu white the pleoeHt IL
port of the jury disposes of most OF
the cases, there yet remain several
cases to be passed upon. When the
latter are disposed of. according TO
Postmaster General Payne, the inves.
tigation, so far as the work at Wash
ington is concerned, will be at an end
for all practical purposes. Several OF
the persons indicted live outside OF
Washington They will be arrested
as soon as bench warrants can be
served.
Postmaster General Payne and
Fourth Assistant Postmaster General

jury's action after that body reported

refused to diyulge details pending ON
cial notification of arrests Two other
important events occurred in the pos-
tai inquiry.
Vexed at Premature Publicity.
Leopold Stern, the Baltimore con-
tractor, who disappeared from Balti
more before he could be arrested on
an indictment returned July 81 last,
was located at Toronto, and the long
delayed surrender of George W. Bea-
vers, the former head of the salary
and allowance division, to the New
York authorities took place. The pos
tai officials have been searching for
Stern ever since he disappeared and
adam authorities that he is in To-
ronto. They expressed considerable
rexation at the premature publicity OF
his whereabouts on account of the
problem of extradition that now con.
fronts the government and the posi-
bility of his making good his escape
now that the information has become
public in advance of the readiness Of
the authorities to effect his arrest
Beavers arrest created no surprise.
for the government all along has kepr
advised of his whereabouts, despite
reports to the contrary
Stern Will Put Up a Fight.
Toronto, Sept 9.-Mr. Stern de-
clined to be seen when a reporter
called at his home, and referred all
callers to his attorney. Mr.. Storms
lawyer said that his client was ready
to appear before an extradition judge
and prove his innocence, which is in
terpreted as declaration that extra
dition proceedings will be fought to
the end He will not leave the city,
the attorney said. and if an extradi-
ton warrant is secured Mr.. Stern will
at once leave for Washington.
