Dege11eracy Disproved

4 There are people who declare that he
country is going to materlalism and de-
graduation. There are even people who
prove this awful condition BY isolated
examples Of individual degeneracy. But
at last we have the final word Oh the
other side. THE Worlds Work devotes
Itself In July to showing the finer fide
OF American life. and to proving. by
most Interesting articles and interesting
pictures, that the conditions are beconl-
Ing better every day; that our schools
are better; that our appreciation Of art
is better; that we buy more pictures
and books than any other people in the
world !; that our charities are conducted
with more skill and Judgment than they
ever were before; that there is less dis
honesty. and that the cultivation Of the
arts and OF the highersl life is making
rapid strides-keeping pace. in fact
with the great increase In the material
advance OF the people. This helpful
review has been worked out with sue
cess. and the pictures add very greatly
to the interest OF the number.

Counsel to Ash for Setting aside of
DODGE Divorce Vacation.

Ex-Justice e L. Fursman yesterday announced
that he soon would make a motion in the Supreme
Court to have the vacation of the Dodge divorce set

wife Of Charles w. Morse. This announcement was
made after a conference with William A Sweetser'

the divorce from Charles F. Dodge in 1898 MI
Sweetser gave to Mr. Fursman TWO letters winch
were found among the effects of the late Mortimer
A Ruger who was Dodge's counsel at the time the
divorce was obtained. These letters. If genuine
disprove the sworn statement recently made by
Dodge that the divorce was obtained without MS
knowledge and without the service or papers oh
him.
1t was on Dodges statement that the divorce
recently was vacated and the vacating or the ol-
vorce caused the order annulling Mrs. Dodges mar
rage to Mr.. Morse. The two letters now brought u
light are believed been written to Mr. Kruger
by Dodge, in May 1897. saying that Dodge had
been served with papers in the divorce proceedings
at the Everett House, in this city, ana 10y MI
Sweetser and that there no defence in the ac-
ton. and another in March, 1898. saying: oiSoII
