Ohio s Marriage Restrictions.

On Friday, May ~. ohio enter.
cd upon an interesting expert.
mcnt in the matter of restricting
marriage. BY law passed by
the recent legislature of that
State all applicants for marriage
licenses upon applying to the Pro.
bate Court for legal permission
to wed are required to answer the
following questions:
Is either party a habitual drunkard?
Is either an epilcptic;
Is either insane:
Is either under the influence of an
Intoxicating liquor or drug;
The happy swain who hereafter
goes to the Probate Court in Ohio
for a license must be prepared
with some knowledge of his own
and his tinancee S habits and state
of mind and body. Doubtless the
questions will seem impertlnent
or insulting, and certainly no one
but probate Judge would dare to
PROFOUND such inquiries. How.
ever, as the queries will be print.
ed on record forms, the would.be
bridegroom will probably look up
on them merely as another device
to make hlm as uncomfortable and
foolish as possible at this moment
Gus crisis of his life and fill them
out as well as his confused intel
lect will allow under the clrcum-
stances.
Meanwhile other States will
watch with interest Ohio's expert
ment in matrimony along line IN
which progressive thought has
been moving for many years.

PROGRESS
OF BUILDING
INSPECTION

In regard to the progress OF comply
ing with the new building law for the
city OF Providence. Spencer b. Hopkins
said today that many of the big halls
were nearer IN keeping with the require
ments OF the law than the theatres.
This is owing chiefly to the nature OF
the building the entrances being fewer
and easier TO work upon" he stated
Most of the halls now particularly the
larger ones, have the new hre exits and
the red lights that the law requires and
many buildings have been newly equipped
with fire escapes"
"Of course" ne stated. 1.-The red lights
are not all electric or gas. for there are
several halls l know OF that still are
lighted by the old-fashioned oil lamps
and these OF course are seen In the red
light arrangement over the door. IL takes
some time TO put red exit lights In the
theatres and all OF them have not got
them as yet but the wiring is being put
In at the present time"
There is one thing that we have not
secured yet" he continued. and that
is the proper sort OF a ventilator for use
over the stages OF the theatres.
"one OF the local metal workers recent
ly submitted a device and though Il
works very well the cost Is serious
bar To Its adoption. The idea OF the
ventilator, which will be located over the
stage. Is 20 form a chimney In case of
blaze on the stage. where nine-tent
OF the theatre fire begin. that will carry
OF all smoke and gases The purpose
Is To have plug or fuse that will melt
at certain temperature and cause the
ventilator to open without human assist
ance. There will be- of course. an at
tachment that the stage hands can open
the ventilator with when necessary.
1T Is very probable that we will have
TO go TO New York or some other large
city to get the practical ventilator unless
some local man devises something soon"
said he In conclusion

ATTEMPT
AT TRAIN !:
ROBBERY.

Birmingham, Ala, Feb. 29.-According
10 later reports received here by the onl-
cials OF the Alabama Great Southern rail-
way the shooting OF two postal clerks on
A northbound train two miles north OF
Meridian, Miss, early today was part OF
a plot TO rob the train.
The shooting was done by Jim Paris,
negro who boarded the train In the Meri-
dian yards as II was pulling out Before
Il was under good headway Paris entered
the postal cars and opened f1re on j. Il.
stockton and A. j. Bass, clerks, killing
Stockton instantly and wounding Bass In
the arm.
The negro then seized a package or reg
istered letters and jumped or. In leaving
the train he fell and one leg was crushed
under the wheels, but he managed 10
drag himself three miles.
Bloodhounds were secured at Meridian
the train having backed TO that place.
The incident led TO the capture OF Paris
at daylight. Several registered letters
were found In his pockets.
He was taken 10 jail at Meridian. The
railroad officials say that three or four ne
groes were involved in the plot to rob
the train, though only one OF them ap-
pears TO have entered the postal car.
. Meridian. Miss, Feb. 29.--The killing
OF ]. Il. Stockton. the postal clerk. has
caused much excitement After Paris,
the alleged murderer was placed In jail
here a mob gathered and. fearing a
lynching. the sheriff notified Governor
Warden. VINO ordered out the local militia.

MANY CATCH
BASINS
FROZEN.

From the number OF brlmming cutters
and choked up catch basins about the
city the average citizen Is inclined to
wonder II the department of public works
has not been dilatory in clearing out
the openings TO the various basins. Upon
a visit TO the office OF that department
in the city hall he is at once disbursed
of that idea, for he is informed that for
the first time In many years the water
in the basins themselves has frozen TO
a depth of several feet and that the trap
Is solidly sos led with nost preventing
the surface water 10 enter the eight-inch
pipe that connects the basin with the
sewer. In a case where the sewer does
not carry away the water from the street
mere the opening has been cleared, and
her, has been fully a thousand OF such
cases reported. then Il IL necessary TO
send portable steam engine around to the
place and thaw the trap.
AS c,.nsequence the four engines that
ths city had were very much in demand
ard IL was found necessary by Commits
sioner Slade 10 hire three others. These
seven have been kept at work during
the cold snap and early and late, Sundays
included. have been trying 10 get the
surface drainage into proper condition so
as to prevent the flooding Of property
and cellars. The department has in a
large measure been successful and thus
far a very few cases nave been reported
Commissioner Slade states that this Is
the first time that the basins ever froze
in this way and states that other cities
have this trouble also, for he has had
applications for the loan OF the city's
engines from other municipalities.
