Talks on the Perils OF
MatrinOny.

Chicago, Aug. 1l.-MrS. Minerva G.
Love, wife of Sidney c. Love, was
given a divorce and granted $4,000
alimony. Besides this sum, Mrs. Love
was given all the possessions of her
home and $4,000 to pay the bills in
CURED during the separation.
The charge was cruelty. Mrs. Love
testified that she was forcibly elected
from her room at night by Love after
a struggle in which her husband digest-
ed her of all of her night clothing.
The couple have been prominent In
society. They were married in 1900
Mrs Love was q divorcee at that time
Mr.. Love is the recognized broker
for the Moore Bros, Daniel G.. ReeC
and other influential men in the west
He has made q fortune through hi
connection with these capitalists. He
made no defense.
Mrs. Love, after her divorce, spoke
thus on the PHILOSOPHY Of marriage:
Don't marry a man to reform him
1t can't be done unless he is under 20
"The woman who permits her hear
to rule her head makes a sad mistake
"If girl loves a man, no matte
how dissipated or selfish he may be
she plunges into matrimony with he
eyes closed.
mo woman should ever depend en-
tirely on her husband for happiness.
Mrs Love insisted emphatically:
ut is folly and leads always t.
heartache. A married woman shoul'
have life apart from her husband
Let her keep sweet and true, and Iowa
BILE, but, beyond certain point, sh
should not venture lest she lose her in
dividuality in her husband with tn
result that he will impose upon her.
Beware of the man with an ungov
ernable temper and almost all men ar
endowed with this quality.
"Shun the man who drinks to exces
for 1t Is q habit that leads to wretch
edness
"Avoid also the man who Ia selhsf
the man who considers always his ow
interests before those of his wife.
"All men are fickle, and 1t depend
on the wife's power to hold them"

spondent Of the London Leader states
that Lieutenant Hammann, of the

the home life of the superior officers
in the German army and has greatly
displeased the army chiefs. 1t is be
lieved that the lieutenant will be court

Expenses.

Washington, d. c., Aug. Thames

porations in the department Of COM
merce and labor, and a protege of
President Roosevelt, must pay his own

clares that there is no law which recog-
nizes the right of the head of bureau
to absent himself from the duties Of
his Office on vacation, and II he is
allowed to do so by his superior off,
Ger, it is merely for his convenience.

A CRISIS
In Turkish Situation Ex-
pected Today.

Washington, ID. c., Aug. lin the
absence of official advices from Minis
ter Leishman at Constantinople, the
state department knows OF no change
in the Turkish situation. The crisis
is looked for tomorrow, the sultan hav
ing agreed to deliver his answer to the
demands of the United States then.
There is a much stronger feeling to.
day that the differences will have a
peaceful, although drawn out conclu
sion. 1t is not believed the Porte will
further test the intentions of Uncle
Sam, for heretofore the presence OF
battleships has been sufficient to bring
the sultan to some sort of an agree
ment. It does not, however, appear to
be the intention of the administration
to accept promises. Its patience has
long since been exhausted.
The situation Of today is the out
come Of the promises Of the sultan
made a year ago and from time to time
since then, when especially urged
There must be some definite conces
sion of an evidence of good faith on
the part of the sultan before Rear
Admiral Jewell with his cruiser squad
ron and Rear Admiral Barker with his
battleship squadron start home. Rear
Admiral Jewell has not yet arrived
at Smyrna, the navy department an
nounces. The secret of this no doubt
is that he has been given slower sail
ing orders than has been generally
supposed, no, doubt with view Of en-
abling the sultan to act before the
arrival of the squadron, If he deems
IL best,

OFFICIAL SILENCE
Indicates Fresh Russian
ReverSeS.

Paris, Aug. 12.--Uondon Times.)-
The news from st. Petersburg has
again taken on a much less hopeful
tone and betrays not only doubt as to
the completeness of the intelligence
from the scene OF war, but apprehen-
sion that the officIa. s4ence hides fresh
Russian reverses.
The st. Petersburg correspondents
of French newspapers that are pro-
Russian in their tone complain that
their advices are unduly censored. II
is admitted that tho Port Arthur gar.
rison is exhausted by the long siege
and in no condition to hold out much
longer

GOVERNOR
Gets Himself Disliked by
Cupid.

Baltimore, Aug 1.-Since Governor
WarAeld delivered his address advis-
ing the Wilmington High School girls
to shun Cupid's darts until they had
reached the age Of .26, he had been re-
peatedly challenged to Justify his po-
sition. GH
The governor has been out of town
q good deal lately, but was finally
pinned down and asked to explain.
The remark. he said. was made
playfully and without premeditation.
Il was not taken altogether right,
either. What / did really say was:
"My advice to you is not to marry too
early. If asked the age when you
should marry, would say 26. That
was the age OF Mrs. Warfield when
! married her and have said to my
daughters that I would not give my
consent to their marrying until they
carried that age"
Seriously speaking, do not think
that many lives are made failures by
persons marrying before their cnarac,
ters have been formed You know
When first we love we rarely wed.'
This very true saying
young people are impressionable
and romantic, and IL left to their own
tree viii are apt to rush into matri-
mony without properly considering the
STsve responsibilities Of married life.
Many cases have come under my OBJ.
eervation where youthful and hasty
marriages have resulted In unhappi-
pess. discomfort and lives Of drudgery.
This old saying, Mary in haste and
repent at leisure proves too often
true.
young women and men should re-
member that the romantic attachments
Of youth are not lasting. would not
wish to be regarded as laying down
iron-clad rules concerning the exact
age when @ girl should marry; It
might be at 20, "a, 25. or 20 years; 1t
all depends upon the physical and
meptal development OF the girl.
u meant rather to indicate that a
girl should not marry until she was
over 81 and of an age to comprehend
the responsibility Of the marriage
state and to make an intelligent choice
Of the man whose conpanionship will
be either help or hindrance to her
life.
There are many serious questions
70 be considered In deciding upon this
most important step. Health, heredity
environment, state. social tendencies
al should be carefully weighed II a
happy married life Is desired. Girls
should not be carried away with the
good looks and facinating manners oi
men. The man girl would marry
when she leaves school is usually moi
tho man she would select after she
has seen more OF the world"
