IS GRANTED

II all the allegations that Mrs. Eliza
G. Cutler made In the divorce ease she
has filed against Earl X. Cutler, are
true, her married life has been one
continental storm period. says the
Pueblo Chieftain. According to the
wife the couple were married in Las
Vegas. N. NJ, four years ago. Juag.
ing from the complaint 1t is to be
presumed that the first year of their
marriage was a happy one, as there
are no storms recorded during that
period. In September Of the second
year, however, Mrs. Cutler claims that
her husband beat, struck, bruised
and wounded her. and that as a re-
suit she was sick, sore and lame for
many days" On Jan. Is, 1908, she
claims, Cutler, struck, beat and
kicked her and then threatened her
life." A month later, she asserts, he
kicked her down the floor of her room
while she was lying III with typhoid
fever.

real estate valued at $4,000 and in or
der to prevent him from selling, incam-
herring or otherwise disposing of the

THE TREES
Destructive Scale Insect Beginning to
Appear Upon the Naples, Elms and
Poplars Of the City.
Editor Optic:

Editor Optic:
Las Vegas. N. NJ, Aug. 29.-Over
ten years ago ! observed that the
maple trees Of this section were dying
and called the attention OF some Of
my neighbors to II at that time, and
have been a close observer on the
subject ever since. The leaves OF
these trees first begin to turn a light
color. and then white, and the body
begins to get dry and cracks, and in
about five years the tree dies. l wrote
to the agricultural department at Las
Cruces, and received the reply that
the maple tree was a short lived tree
In this country but | have some doubt
II that Is correct. as in the central
states the maple Is a long liver. Oh.
serving an article In the Denver paper
on this subject, 1t was given to The
Optic and published about two weeks
ago. That article attributed the de.
cay OF these trees to the black scale.
] have been observing since and no.
tice that on many Of the maple trees
an insect Is on the under side of the
limbs. Soon after they appear, the
leaves begin to change their color,
and the limb begins to turn black and
finally dies. This morning l made a
special observation on that subject,
and am sending to the agricultural de-
partment at Las Cruces some limbs
for Investigation. George Ward tells
me that ten years ago the Carolina
poplar made its first appearance in
Las Vegas, and the trees were COW
cred with this same scale. He be-
lieves the scale was introduced
through the Carolina poplar. ex.
hibited to Mr.. Shermer, my neighbor,
some limbs infected with the scale this
morning, and he tells me that the
scale Is found on the orange trees in
California, and that there they spray
the trees with lime water. AS some
OF the most beautiful trees in our city
are Of the marie variety 1t is i'm
pOrtant to the beauty of our city that
we should ascertain the cause Of this
disease. and the cure for it. / hope
Others will make Investigations and
observations, and report through ycnr
paper, for the benefit Of all. Mr..
Ward, of the insane asylum, also S.
r. Dearth, inform me that this same
scale is beginning to appear on the
elm trees, and ! have noticed it on
the cottonwood trees. II this insect
Is to infect the fine shade trees,
which make Las Vegas a place of
beauty. 1t is highly important that citi.
zens should investigate and take
means to destroy the pest. II any
reader has any knowledge on this sub
ject that would be beneficial to the
public. especially as to the best means
for the destruction Of this insect, 1t
should be made known through the
Optic. For a time / was impressed
that our soil might not be favorable
to the maple, but the above investi.
cation has led me to the conclusion
that 1t Is neither climate or soil, but
the ravages Of an insect, which is oe-
stroying our trees and which might be
stopped by proper precaution. Truly
yours, E. v. LONG. !.

Brains Behind Japan's Guns.

From LeSlleS s weekly.
 It Is a matter of record that for years before the outbreak of hostilities with Japan, Russia had been spending annual ly on war preparations twelve times as much as her expenditures on public edu- cation; whereas in Japan the public schools had stood on par with the mili- tary establishment in the national budget. Nothing could be more illuminative of causes and results in the recent war than this statement; it affords an ex- planation of the course of events in that war in the compass of sentence. The triumph of the Japanese was largely the triumph of the schoolmaster; it was the brains behind the guns that won the vic tory at Liaoyang and in the Sea of Ja- pan If Russia is capable of learning any lesson from her humiliating defeat in the Far East, 1t must be this-that high intelligence combined with genuine patriotism counts for more in modern warfare than Cossack brawn and Krupp
