CHICAGO, H., Dec. 3,-The actions OF
Mrs. Grace Smell Layman, who has just
received her fifth divorce, were denounced
by Chicago Judges to-day, and general

relation was urged.
This woman's career has been a rank
travesty on marriage and the sacredness
of its obligations" said Judge Brentano.
by five quick marriages and divorces she
has shown her utter inability to appreciate
the sanctity of the marriage tie. This
dragging of the sacred things of life through
the miro cannot but arouse the liveliest
indignation in right minded men,"
Mrs. Smell. or Layman or whatever her
last name is at present, has turned married
life into opera bouffe' said Judge Mack
1T is all wrong, absurd, outrageous. But
there is no help, as the laws stand. Mrs.
Layman can marry again as soon as she
can find any man who wishes TO make her
his wife
Mrs. Layman was married first when
she was 10 years old TO Frank Coffin,
a dancing master. She married him a sec
ond time at the solicitation Of her son,
now dead. Then she divorced and married
him a third time She has since married
and divorced two other men. Mrs Lay
