why not?" replied Julia. They have the
duty of policing women. Look There are
no men here They prevent quarrels settle
little disputes. They patrol the town and
the, oyster beds near the shore. But there
are few thieves; only tramps who are regtl-
larly too, listless to open oysters for them
selves. They prefer coming for them on the
half shell In the daytime"
Nevertheless, we were astonished at the
feminine police. Afraid to patrol the town
at night?" shifted Julia. Those women are
afraid of nothing. They are as strong as
men and very handy In a mix-up." We be-

DIVORCES IN AUSTRALIA.
Average Far Below That Reached in
This Country.

Divorces in the Australian states" says
United States Consul Cooling at New Cas-
tie, y. S. w, care more numerous than
In most of the countries of the world,
though the average IS far below that reach
ed In the United States. The number Is
particularly large in Victoria and New
South Wales, where the facilities for pro-
curing divorce are greater than they are
in the other states. Since the passing Of
the shels act of 1880. which made deser-
ton for three years a ground for divorce
In Victoria, divorces have averaged over
100 per annum, the greatest number being
181 in 1902, and the lowest, eighty-five in
1895. The total for the period 1s91-1903
was 1,25O, and the average per 10000 mar
riages for the period 1S96-19o2 was 1884. !;
In countries where divorce laws are in
force this record Is only surpassed by those
of Germany 165; France, $50; RoumanIa,
204; Switzerland, 49,, and the United States,
612 divorces for every 10000 marriages.
In New South Wales the figures are
much higher than they are in Victoria.
An act similar to the Victorian measure
came into force in New South Wales In
1892 and the number of divorce DEGREES at
once showed an increase-an almost alarm
ing increase In the quinquennial period
1S91-1S96 the number of divorces granted
in New South Wales was no fewer than

age of 272.3 divorces per 10000 marriages,
which is much more than double the aver
age in Victoria during the same years, and
is exceeded only by those for Switzerland
and the United States In the period 1885,

RESTAURANT OF ExILEs.
a Resort of Italians on the Lower
West Side Of New York.

From the New York Sun.
In the West Side Italian quarter facing
upon a street crossing Bleecker at right an
giles is the restaurant of the eXiles. 1t is
huge, dim, shabby, low-celled basement
Amid the gloom are scattered twelve or
fifteen large tables. One sees at the rear
a narrow passage leading to the kitchen
and the bocci court. Through the wooden
open work of the kitchen one sees the cook
and his assistants in their white aprons and
paper caps. Dogs haunt the gloom of the
passage leading kitchenward and the dim
air of the place is strong with the odor of
garlic and tomato sauce.
Upon the walls of the main apartment
hang framed carica lures in hideous colors
from the italian comic political papers,
ugly and shamelessly brutal things in
which public men are held up to ribald ridi-
Guile. A billiard table occupies a consider
able space in the room, but is completely
covered with an oilcloth, and at meal time
is used to hold chance dishes and to facli-
tate the serving.
The rack that should hold the billiard
balls is occupied with the ringed and not
too fresh napkins of the regular diners. So
busy is the place at noon that all other
considerations. like the billiard table, give
place to the mere matter of feeding the
guests.
1t is an oddly mixed company that fills
the tables, hangs about the bar and passes
back and forth to the bocci courts. Here
reigns the democracy of exile.

Others are scrupulous as to the amenities
of the table. All at one in ordering
with care as to the 'addicfon," and the
bill of fare is not only varied, but aston
ishingly cheap.
All the characteristic delicacies of italian
cuisine are served. The wine indeed, Is
mainly California. but 1t is often served

The richest of italian cheeses peppers
