Certainly they failed 10 convince the

Senate fo,. not only the appropriation

fight in every way possible as the dredg-

river.
The mud must be put back Of banks

Paid For Pie in Stamps.

The price of an oyster pie in mos,
restaurants is ten cents but there is
one quick lunch house in this city where
these toothsome pies are handed out
at Is cents each. They are worth it, by
the way, but coming back to the pur-
pose of this article, a stranger strolled
into this restaurant the other day and
after acquadnting himself with the fact
that the man sitting next to him was
devouIdng an oyster pie with keen en-
joymmt, he likewise ordered one. The
pie came in steaining hot and in a
short time disappeared. A check for Il
cents was handed TO the stranger and
Immediately a curious expression crept
over his face.
Haven't you made a mistake, watt
err" he inquired.

desk but before reaching there halted

Of his legal separation from his wife

to heighten the guim Jest. a number OF
maids and matrons are asked to join
the party
SO they sit down to the feast and the
jest passes with the wine. Matnimony
is pictured with loathing; divorce IS
regarded as the open door to happiness,
and a most impressive warming is given
ito the young women present that If
marriage is to occur at all it is TO be ne
garded merely as a matter Of conven-
fence, TO be terminated at win, just as
any contract that ceases TO be atuact-
i've lis to be broken.
Now isn't that a beautiful example
FOR people who because Of their wealth
are prominent and are much talked
about, to set for the rest OF the world
In that gathering OF liberated" men
We're those who have sons and daugh-
ters, the children Of mothers from
whom liberation became the subject of
public jestsl
From the character OF these men as
revealed on this occasion one may
draw a conclusion, and il is more COM
plimentary TO the detached women than
to their former lords.
Divorce may be "a necessary evil, but
at best it is AN evil. 1t cannot DE re-
gaded as anything else than a ship

q growing spirit of levity regarding

An Outside View of Delaware.

The Duluth, Mimi, News Tribune Of

"The defeat OF Addicks affects not only
Delaware but the whole United States.
lie represented a type Of politicians the
country cannot get rid Of too soon. He
belongs TO the school whose doctrine is
that every man is for sale and that states
manship does not mean ability, integrity
or patriotism, but power to purchase men
even as cattle are bought.
There are statesmen of that type in the
Senate even now though it may be con-
fessed that not one of them is so iiagrant
an offender as Addicks.
''Mr. Addicks has no earthly claim to
the honor of seat in the Senate. He is
so very slightly identified with the state
Of Delaware, to begin With. that he could
as logically hope TO represent Maryland
or Pennsylvania. He has the sagacity OF
a speculator but not the broad views of q
statesman. He has counted upon his abil'
ity 10 buy. Would he be squeamish in the
matter of sale.
'We need no Addicks in the Senate and
his defeat Is a thing to be thankful for"
