The ancient minstrel Joke as to why |
married men live longer than bache.
lors. and the reply that it only seems
longer. was conceived in spirit OF
fun. but ii is now scientifically assert.
cd that matrimony Is conducive to
longevity. a certain learned professor
has calculated that the mortality
among bachelors from the age of 80 to
Is years is - per cent. while among
married men of the same age it is Is
per cent For III bachelors who attain
the age of 40 years there are rs mar.
ricd men who reach the same age. The
difference is still more striking in per-
SONS of advanced age. At 90 years
there remain but 30 bachelors for ~
married men. At 10. IL bachelors for
- married men. and a so. 3 bachelors
for o married men.

jaded who imagine life scarcely worth
the while. The function through which
he created an oasis of gladness and
put some of his money into circula-
ton was Il birthday party to his wife's
| doggy. There were seven canine pets
present and they were attended by five
doggies were there too. and after the
dinner they. with Mr.. Lehr, romped
with the pets until all were tired out.

There is but one Harry Lchr. No 9th.
or example of splendid cndeavor and
unmistakablc genius approaches him.
He has money and puts 1t to the noble
use of making II fool of himself and
his associates. Seven dogs attended by
five buffers. and the function presided
over by a near relative dressed in Il
mans clothes. What n spectacle!
Neither the person nor the property
of u foreign minister or of his ser.
want Is sub,cc. to the ordinary laws
OF the United States. If Il minister
hailed into court and ordered to keep
his contract. He may not be fined or
imprisoned for any misconduct--not
even for crime. The courts of this
country have no Jurisdiction over the
Representatives of foreign powers. Not
every one Is aware of this immunity,
us the country discovered when a
Massac husetts Judge got himself into
trouble by filming the third secretary
of the British embassy for running an
automobile too fast. The Judge had
to apologize and remit the fine be-
cause the secretary insisted on his
rights under the law. Other repre-.
scntativcs Of foreign countries have
been arrested In other parts Of the
country. but they have preferred to
pay the fines inflicted rather than
call attention to their disregard Of 10.
cal ordinances. Immunity from ar.
rest has been granted In nearly all
countries to representatives Of other
powers. on the theory that they never
leave their own country. For instance
wherever the French ambassador
stands. there Is France. and only
French laws can reach him. COnse
Quently. when French minister OF
attache Is guilty Of Il misdemeanOr he
must be tried In France under French
laws II lie insists on his rights. Amer
lean representatives abroad enjoy like
immunitles.
