French Sheed Herder Wanders
About For Five Days in Ranges
North of LoveIock.

Peter Ramband, Frenc.l sheepherder.
is the hospital at Reno suffring from five
days exposure in the mountains from
where he was unable to find a way out,
wandering all the while without food and
with his hands, feet and ears frozen.
Ramband was crazed when found and
has not yet fully recovered his reason.
hTe victim had been herding in the
ranges north of Lovelock and evidently
started to come to this place about
week ago. He became lost twenty Ave
miles north of Lovelock and when his
feet and hands froze he lost his reason.
He says he remembered sleeping for two
or three nights with his feet in badger
holes to keep them from freezing and
that he chewed greasewood and sage
brush to keep from starving. He ate
snow when thirsty, as the country in
which he avs found is barren of water
Ramband was found by Murray Walsh,
young sheepman. Ramband ran at
sight of him and 1t was with great diff
Guilty that he could be induced to go to
the Walsh camp. His condition is such
al this time that it is Impossible to tell
whether his reason will be restored and
whether his feet and hands can be saved.
When found his feet had swollen so much
that they had burst his shoes.

HIS UNFORTUNATE ERROR.
Man Tells Friends Wife of Poetic
Passages from "Dear Mar
celle's Letters"

M. Gnyot, SAYS the New York
Tribune, at a dinner given in his
honor at the Waldorf-Astoria,
said apropos of unfortunate err
ors
"Once in my youth, | made an I'M
fortunate error myself, an error
that l shall never forget.
81 had in my youth a friend, a
young man who was violently in
love. His sweetheart lived in Mar
settles, and she used to write to
him twice a week. She wrote beau
tiful letters, full of the most po-
etic sentiments. He read to me
passages from them as they ar
rived.
"Well this sort of thing went on
for some six months. Twice a
week letter would come from
Marcelle-that was the young
| girls name-and from each letter
l would hear the choicest por-
tions. l became a great admirer
of this young woman whom ] had
never seen.
'Then l was called away for a
year. / heard nothing from my
friend during my absence, but
somehow or other, through some
gossip or other, the news of his
marriage reached me, and at this
news l was heartily pleased.
con my return to Paris, my
friends house was the first / Wis
tied. He received me joyously.
"I must present you to ny
wife, he said.

read me so many passages iron

Better Plan for Those Who shy at
neutrality-suspicious. IN Few
Words.

OF an the Quixotic theories for
remedying the "evils" Of matri
mony, that Of Mr.. George Mere
dith, the English novelist, is per-
haps the most amusing, declares
Housekeeper. His idea is that
marriage, like any other contract,
should be for a certain specified
time, the contract, upon its expira-
ton, to be extended at the option
of the interested parties. Ger
tainly," he says, zone day the pres
ent condition of marriage will be
changed
Marriage will be allowed for a
certain period, say ten years, or
well, / do not want to specify
any particular time. The state
will see that sufficient money is
put by during that time to provide
for and educate the children. Per-
haps the state will take charge Of
this fund" One is tempted at first,
on reading Mr.. Meredith's ridicu-
lOus suggestion, to marshal the
many arguments easily within
reach and hurl them at his learned
head. Apart from the sentiment
al considerations, there are many
practical, matter-of-fact reasons
why Mr.. Meredith's idea cannot be
taken seriously.
Most parents still desire to have
something to say regarding the
bringing up of their children, and
wise folks are pretty we'll agreed
that the breaking up of the family
means disaster to the nation. But
there is a better answer to Mr..
Meredith than all this. 1t is to be
found in the large and increasing
number of happy marriages all
about us.
There is no need TO attack the
man of straw which Mr.. Meredith
has set up. There is no "handi-
cap" of marriage. The blame for
unhappy marriages is to be laid
upon the persons themselves, not
upon marriage itself. So many
persons are voyaging pleasantly
and happily upon the sea Of mat
rimony, that it would be the
height of absurdity to prevent
their ships from sailing or to limit
the length of their voyages just
because a few other persons have
already become seasick.
Let those who are liable to such
indispositiOn stay at home. For
those who believe that marriage
IS "handicap" there is a simple
course of action: Stay single.

QUEER MISTAKE.
Woman Divorced From Son
Instead of Husband.

A special from Omaha, Neb., says:
ITO her unspeakable surprise and
chagrin, Mrs. Clara L. Russell has
discovered that the decree of divorce
which was granted her in the district
court here several months ago was
from her infant son. Henry jenkins,
instead of from her husband, George
Henry Russell, as she had supposed.
According to the decree she was
divorced from the son and was given
the custody of the husband. In fill
ing out the decree the name of the
son was written where that of the
husband should have appeared, and
the, name of the husband was writ
ten where that of the son should
have appeared.
MRS. Russell appeared before the
Judge who granted the decree, anC
she was informed that there was NJ
way by which she could rectify tn,
error, and that in order to get
divorce from her husband it would
be necessary for her to file a new
suit"
