URGES CHANGE
IN DIVORCE LAWS
Swedish Methodist Minister
Wants Conference to Act.
CRITICISES AMERICAN WAYS
TELLS HOW SEPARATION IS OBJ
TANNED IN NATIVE LAND.

The American divorce mill is de-
scribed as a terrible machine" by
Rev. Francis Ahgren of the Trinity
Methodist Episcopal church, Stock
holm, Sweden, who is staying at the
Wilson hotel for a few days, while on
bis way TO the general conference Of
the Methodist church at Los Angeles.
The minister declared that i'm his opin-
ion the matter ought to be taken up by
the conference, as it probably viii, and
if possible, the rules Of the church
should be changed 10 meet the coca
sion. Rev. Ahgren further asserted
that I'm Sweden divorces are rare.
In my opinion the divorce question
IS one Of vital interest To the United
states" declared Mr.. Ahgren last even
ing Something should be done not
only by the churches. but by the people
of this country. More stringent divorce
laws should be established. From what
I have learned of the divorce courts Of
the United States it has become a great
question Of the future welfare of the
country. The divorce mills here, as
they are called. are terrible. A man
can get up i'm the morning and wish for
a divorce. BY evening his wish can be
Eratifed. 1 do not know definitely
whether the divorce question viii be
taken up at the conference, as this is
not my native land. From what 1 hear
il is not far from probable that it will
be one of the questions.
Few Divorces in Sweden.
Il hear that there are 1900 divorces
granted in the United States yearly
This is very large number in compa-
rison with the population. In Stock
holm. Sweden, the population is 80. OOO
and only about fifty divorces are grant
ed I'm a year.
In Sweden divorces are exceptions
on account Of the laws. a man desir-
ing "A divorce has TO appear before the
clergyman of his parish. no matter
what faith. There he is warned of the
consequences of divorce. Then if he
IS still unsatisfied he appeals TO the
courts. To secure relief he is Obliged
II withdraw from his family one year
and not visit them. after which. If he
still wants a divorce it is granted.
Short Cut for the Rich.
Society people and people with
money have "A short cut. one party
deserts the other and goes to some for
eign land. Then the remaining person
appears before the magistrate alleging
that the defendant has deserted. never
10 return. Then if the defendant ap-
pears before the consul to the country
10 which he has gone and declares in
writing that the charge is true a df-
Vorce is granted"
With Mr.. Ahgren is Rev. G. Wagons
son, presiding elder of the western dis
irict of Sweden. and two laymen. e
l.undgren, Stockholm. and John Borge-
son, Gothenburg. They represent the
10000 Methodicts in Sweden.

OF considering the resignation OF

made up his mind carefully and
deliberately in the matter. There is
perhaps no more devoted. conscien-
tiouS and successful school man in

schools at Columbia and Gorkville.
He has been here three years and

You will remember the sum OF

Before Albert had recovered from
his astonishment. Alexandra had left
his presence, fearful of the effects OF
her audacity.
That she created an impression up
on the heir apparent is, however,
most evident; her marriage with Al
bert Edward took place on March 10,
1868, and she now shares with him
the honors incident to the possession
of twenty shillings" income.
