DIVORCE AND MORALITY.
Reason Offered in Justification OF
Legal Separation.

Reason offered in Justification of
Legal Separation.
"Nor is the morality OF any country"

the United States In the outlook, ito

vorces. Its condition may really be
worse II people cynlcally abstain from
obtaining divorces where there are
grounds for obtaining them"
This is constantly forgotten by those
who discuss the divorce question. says
the Philadelphia Press. A great ma
jority Of the divorces are obtained by
women. Many of them represent, not
a low. but high Ideal OF the married
relation.
Nothing can be worse than the CON
ditiOn which obtains in parts of Eu-
rope, where women. as Mr.. Bryce sug.
gests. cynically condone the immorali-
ty OF their husbands. submit to their
wanton profigacy ana make it easy
for men to yield to their worst pas
sions and maintain respectable front
In society, through the easy complals-
ance OF their wives.
The higher level Of married life in
this country is in a large measure due
to the swift certainty tnat the Amer
lean woman whose husband neglects
his marriage vows, or plays the brute,
refuses to accept marriage on a low
plane OF mere expedlency. and insists
that this sacred union shall be all that
It should be. or shall cease
1t will be an evil day when. under
mistaken agitation against frequent
divorces, women are led to accept
wickedness in men instead Of lnfllcting
on them the Just punishment which
separation and divorce place in their
hands.

Roman OathoIics in United states

Roman Catholics I'm United States.
The Roman Catholic population Of
the United States and its dependencies
is far larger than that OF any other re-
ligious denomination. This fact is
brought out by comparison between
the statistics in the Roman Catholic
directory for 1905. and those relating
TO other church bodies, which have
been compiled by the Rev. II. X. Car
roll. The whole number Of Roman
Catholics under the protection OF the
United States flag is % l27, 354. OF
these, 7O5S,699 are in the Philippines:
1,573,S62 in Cuba, 100000 in Porto
Rico. and $4,000 in the Sandwich ISL

ing to include the Roman Catholics Of
the dependencies in a consideration of

ious denominations in the United

They sailed away In a gallant bark,
Roy Neal and his fair young bride;
They had ventured all in that bounding
ark,
That danced DER the sllv'ry tide;
But their hearts were young and spirits
light,
And they dashed the tears away
As they watched the shore recede from
sight
OF their own sweet Dublir Bay.
Three days they sailed when a storm
arose,
And the lightning swept the deep;
When the thunder crash broke the short
repose
Of the weary sailors sleep.
Roy Neal he clasped his weeping bride,
And he kissed the tears away.
"Oh, love, twas a fearful hour" he
cried,
when we left sweet Dublin Bay"
On the crowded deck Of the doomed ship
Some fell in their mute despair,
But some more calm. with boiler lip.
Sought the God of storm in prayer
"She has struck on a rock" the seamen
cried.
In the depth OF their wild dsmay;
And the ship went down with that fair
young bride,
That sailed from Dublin Bay.

BUILD next YEAR
President Walsh, of Rock Island
Southern, Talks at
Galesburg.
TWO ROUTES IN VIEW
Rock Island May Resume interurban
Service in Iowa in Spring
With Gasoline Cars.

NJ A. Walsh, president of the Rock
Island Southern, was in Galesburg yes
terday in conference with Manager
Harris. of the Peoples Traction COM
pany. He stated that the deal for the
entrance of the Rock Island Southern
over the Peoples line into Galesburg
would be completed within week.
Mr.. Walsh stated that the GalesburS-
Monmouth line was TO be an electric
one. The power house will probably
be built at Cameron and would cos;
$50 900. Ii would be made large enough
TO furnish power for the line TO Rock
Island also.
The line 10 this city is to be built
next summer. according TO Mr. Walsh,
and is sure proposition. Surveyors
will lay out TWO routes. one from Gales
burg and one from Monmouth, and
then the company will choose between
them.
May Resume Interurbans.
Another view of the situation with
reference to the discontinuance of in
terurban service on the Rock Island
road in Iowa, as announced in yester-
days press dispatches. is that the move
was decided on owing 10 lessened
travel and increased cost of operating
during the winter. Whether the serv-
ice will be started again in the spring
is a matter of conjecture but it is
thought, especially in railroad circles,
that the trains will be put on again,
but it is believed they will be propell-
ed by gasoline power. Several of the
roads have been making extensive ex-
periments with gasoline motor cars, es-
pecially the Union Pacific, which has
several of the cars in operation. These
cars are fully as large, if not larger,
than the ordinary interurban car. and
will carry from 50 TO 80 people at a
speed of 80 to 40 miles per hour. The
Rock Island officials have been watch
ing these experiments very closely. and
if the new cars are a success there is
no doubt but that this road will put
number of them in operation.

Enjoy "ParsifaI." - The production
of the allegorical "Parsifal' at the Hi
nois theatre last evening proved TO be
one Of the biggest successes of the year,
SO far The highly religious tone of the
drama seemed TO appeal greatly to the
large audience, and the applause was

The allegorical story of the drama
is perhaps familiar to the majority OF

has been frequently published since

been produced in the east While the
adaptation by Mr. Roberts would not
suffer by the comparison. it is not a
fair one. In the dramatic quality 1t
may be said that the play has the ad-
vantage of the opera.

ton that it is not evenly balanced, some
