Divorced Wife's Marriage.

WILMINGTON, Del. Aug. 12.-Dr.
Joseph P. Pyle. president Of the water
commission. is confined TO his bed by ILL
ness. His divorced wife, Ghretine Yeat-
mann. of Kennett Square. Pa, whom he
married fifteen years ago, was welded at
II o'clock this morning to United States
Senator Hepburn of Idaho.
The romance began when the former
Mrs Pyle was budding into womanhood,
but the engagement was broken OF for
reasons that the Senator and Miss Yeat-
mann refused TO disclose DR.. Pyle and
Miss Yeatmann were then married.
Some years after this marriage family
dissension arose and Mrs. Pyle sepa-
rated from her husband. Prior to
their divorce DR.. Pyle, who IS

sought a reconciliation. Trouble arose
between his sister-in-law and himself

DR.. Pyle blames his sister-in-Iaw for
the separation between himself and his
wife. He is not seriously i'll. but it Is
thought that the approach Of his former
wife 5 marriage has broken him down.

BOGUS MONEY MAKING
IN THE PHILIPPINES
FOur-fifths of One Province
Engaged in COunterfeiting.
IGAROTES THE OFFENDERS
False Coins Made From Copper and Sold
to Merchants From the
Coast.

The astounding statement is contained
in a report to the War Department, that
four-hfths OF the population of Lepan-
to-Bontoc. a province in the northern
part of Luzon Island. known for Its
wonderful richness in copper. is engaged
in cOunterfeiting.
The system is carried on by the igor
rotes. and originated in Spanish times.
Now the guardia civil has been sent out
TO put an end TO it. The natives take
the copper from the mines. batter 1t
out into the shape of coins and stamp
these with an old Spanish stamp.
Merchants come I'D from the coast 10
buv the coins. and get them at the rate
of I2O for one peso Mexican. Fifty OF a
hundred miles distant these merchants
get a Mexican peso for eighty OF the
coppeTs. Thousands of them are in cir
culauon in Manila. 1t is said that the
amount turned out is equivalent to
about So 900 annually
The natives who pursue this Illegal
calling do so without criminal intent
and cannot be readily taught that they
are violating the law. 1t Is expected
that the Government will have much diff
ficulty in suppressing the practice

they possess peculiar advantages, as
they are immune against the dangerous
horse disease of Africa and also against
the deathly 'tsetse' fly. The question
was therefore raised whether the zebra
could not take the place of the mule,
commonly used in the tropics. The
greatest credit with reference TO the
solution of this problem is due to Prof.
Cossar Ewart. who has been trying since
1895 to produce crosses between horses
and zebras, with a view to developing
an animal superior in every respect to
the mule
Prof. Ewart produced crosses from
mares of different breeds and zebra
stations of the Burchell kind. The Off
spring is called zebrula. and on account
of its form and general bodily condi-
tion-especially the hardness of the
hoofs-is specially adapted for all trans
port work heretofore performed by
mules. The zebrula is much livelier

eide party supremacy in this county.
the home of Lowndes, Wellington and
Representative Pearre. was almost con-
stantly on the verge of riot. 1t lasted
six hours and upon two occasions the
police were called and II required about
a half hour each time to restore order.
Both the McComas and anti-McComas
people claim control OF the delegation
of five named for the Legislature. Four
of the nominees were on Wellington 3
anti McComas slate, but the McComas
people say they picked out the success
full ticket first and Wellington unwit-
tingly played into their hands.
Wellington was always in the turmoil
and was often hissed. His face became
red when McKinley's picture was
brought on the stage. Robert w. Nc
Michael. leading attorney. was eject
ed from the convention by Chief OF
Police Mcdonald IN one of the exciting
scenes. On two occasions the fight for
delegates resembled rushes in a foot
ball game
Ex-Governor Lowndes' friends were
with the anti-McComas forces, and this
may cause McComas to attempt to with
hold from him the gubernatorial nomi-
nation.

The days of the mule are numbered.
Within the next few centuries his
melodious voice will have been stilled
forever. This is the prophecy of United
States Consul General Richard Guen-
ther, at Frankfort, Germany. who sends
an official report to the State Depart
ment on the chances of the zebrula,
cross between the horse and zebra, SUI
perseding the mule. He says of the
qualifications of the zebrula:
German papers contend that 1t has
been demonstrated that the mule. the
cross between horse and donkey, is in
ferior to the cross between horse and
zebra.
Formerly the opinion prevailed that
the zebra was almost extinct. The open
ing up Of Africa. particularly the east
ern part. reveals these fine animals IN
large numbers.

CHICAGO. Aug. 12--According to Prof.
Frederick e. Starr. head of the an
thropological department at the Uni
versity CT Chicago, cannibalism among
the savage tribes of Africa, Australia
and Greenland is justifable. This state
ent vas made before his class yester-
day in the course of q lecture. He ex-
planned to his startled audience that he
would not justify anyone for killing a
man for food. but that in his opinion it
was not wrong to eat him when dead.
'The bushmen and pigmies of Africa,
the Fuegians and Bolo-Cudos OF South
America. and the Eskimos OF North
America said he, ARE all cannibals.

I'm Germany much interest in this ami
NAL is manifested. The well-knOwn
Hagenheck is experimenting in this di-
rection and intends to introduce the
zebrula into Germany and America The
geological garden at Berlin possesses
some very fine specimens. The zebra
stripes are often well preserved, while
the undertone of the skin is generally
that of the mother. A fullgrown ze-
brula is fourteen hands high and the
girdle circumference about sixty-three

The experiments so far have been 81
successful that it is predicted that the
zebrula during the present century will

In His Opinion Is Not Wrong TO Eat Body of Man After

He Is Dead

the case of the latter that l say their
cannibalism is justffable.
at is a fact that every known tribe
which eats dogs also feeds on human
beings. Dog eating and man eating go
together When the Eskimo has no wal
rus he cats his dog. and when his dogs
are gone he eats his brother. IL the
brother happens to be corpse. II he
did not eat the human flesh he would
starve. or at least go hungry. and

Prof Starr further remarked that the
finest tribes in Africa are cannibals, who
think that they attain the attributes OF
the dead relatives or friends by eating
