CASTELLANE CASE ON.
TROUBLE BETWEEN COUNT AND
COUNTESS AIRED IN COURT.
Counsel for Wife, Formerly Miss
Gould, Tells of Family Wars Over
MOney-WOmen Torture an Erring
Sister.

The Castellane divorce case was heard
in Paris before NJ Henry Ditto, president
of the tribunal of first instance of the
Seine. Neither the count nor the countess
was present. Maitre Cruppi, for the
countess, pleaded for divorce upon the
documentary evidence submitted. In an
extended review counsel declared that the
countess at the beginning of the suit was
not acting under influence, but solely to
end forever the peril of the moral desc
lation of her household. He explained the
marriage contract, by which the regime
of separation of property was established
from the very beginning, and stated that
domestic difficulties are over the question
of money. Ill-treatment soon followed,
the count even striking the plaintiff before
the servants. When he reached the ques-
tion of the infdelity charged against the
count, Maitre Cruppi did not mention
names, or even initials, designating the
correspondents as Mime. A, NINE. B"
and so on. Maitre Cruppi asked that the
countess be given the custody of her three
children. The countess was only 20 when
she was married in 1895, and, Maitre
Cruppi asserted, the happiness of the
honeymoon was disturbed ON her arrival
in Paris by the counts demands for
money. The countess income then was
100000, and the count allowed her $50
a month pin money.

News in Brief.

An American woman has 5een devoured
by wolves. With part of the skull, a
rib, piece of the femur and bits of
clothing by which Identification was made
possible, Prof. W. C. Hewitt Of Oshkosh,
Wis. an institute conductor, has just
returned to Dawson, Alaska, with all that
remains of his sister, DIR. Emily Cham
bers, for whose body he searched the
frozen north two years. The discovery
of these few bones and the personal
knowledge of the tate that overlook Mrs.
Chambers sets at rest the mystery con-
corning her disappearance. Mrs Cham
bers' body was deyoured by wolves. Mrs.
Chambers went 20 Dawson in 1900. She
longed for adventure and travel, so she
made a trip through a little known sec
ton of the Yukon with the idea of gath
cring material for book. The itinerary
decided on was one that would have APP
palled many an old prospeeror and the
woman's friends did their best TO dissuade
her from the journey. On July "a, 1901,
she left on the trip from which she was
never to return. Three years ago the
mounted police discovered her diary, in
which was the name and address of Prof.
Hewitt. her brother. He was notified of
her disappearance and at once sought for
her remains. He has been successful af-

report concludes, have been impressed
with the fact that provision should be
made for the establishment of a national
reserve force, which could be called out
by the President at the outbreak of war
to expand the regular army from a peace
to a war footing.
1.-THE plan submitted to the War De
partment by General Funston Aug. 10,
1905, proposed in general terms to make
the regular army nucleus of professional
soldiers, whose duties in time of peace
would include training men for a national
reserve force. On the outbreak of war
these reserves thus trained would, as the
circumstances required, be transferred to
the regular army. which would thus be
able to take the field short notice with
all organizations at full war strength,
to be kept at the maximum of efficiency by
drawing upon the remaining reserves of
trained men as casualties occurred.
1.-THE detailed plan offers a practical
solution of the problem-namely, to place
in the field in time of war regular army
doubled or trebled in size, without chang
ing the national policy of maintaining
only a small regular army in time of
peace, and With slight change, finds favor
in this Office"

A Woman EnIightens Women.

Mrs. Sally Morris Corey had some real
ly refreshing things to say to the club
women who attended the meeting of the
Society for Political Study at New York.
One was that woman must be either a
food or toady without original or indie
pendent speech if she is to be a popular
club woman. She said that the business
woman was all right if she was one, but
that too many made a pretense of bust
ness, hoping to secure notice or make a
match. She compared the nineteenth cen
fury mother and homemaker with the up
to-date college girl pursuing foreign
title-'neglectful mothers of unwished-
for children" She insisted that until we
had wor judges, iurists and execution
ers the sex would never be on a real equal
ity with men,

Our Optimism Deplored.

Prof. Felix Adler, in his first fall ad-
dress to the Society for Ethical Culture,
spoke of the Present Moral Crisis in
American Life" and referred to the re-
cent mass of exposed depravity in public
life. He said that the humiliating fact
was that the men high in state and church
were those chiefly guilty. One thing, he
said, was almost pathetic namely the
persistence of editors, writer's and speak
ers, when some heartrending revelation
has been made" in affirming that the
people have the power and ability to set
things right. For his part he has no
faith in the fatalism that where the
masses rule somehow things will come out
right. Speaking of the Democratic plat
form demand in New York, that the
fruits of labor of right belong to the
laborer," he asks how it is possible for
this to be done under our present factory
system and insists on the need of new
laws and new principles upon which to
settle those problems.

PARLIAMENT FOR FILIPINos.
In 1907 the President VIII Redeem
Promise Made.

A Washington dispatch says that the
President is preparing TO redeem his
promise made to the Philippine people
through Secretary Taft that they shall
have a parliament of their own, con-
ditioned upon their good behavior for
a term of two years, and it is under
stood that Secretary Taft himself will
proceed to the Philippines next spring
to witness the installation of the new
form of representative government
On March %, 1905, the Philippine
census was published, and consequent
81, 1907-under the terms of the act
of Congress, the President will direct
the Philippine commission to call
general election for the choice of dele
gates to what will be known as the
Philippine assembly. This body is to
take over all legislative powers hereto
fore exercised by the Philippine COM
mission in all that part of the archi-
pelago not inhabited by Moros or nom
Christian tribes.
As this date draws near the Philip
pine people are showing signs of agi-
tation and to the officials here it is evil
dent that they are expecting some ben
efits that cannot at once be realized.
For instance, the assembly of provi-
sional governors recently in session in
Manila with the view to arranging the
preliminaries for the meeting of the
Philippine assembly is reported TO
widely extended. 1t is pointed out
here that this is not possible, for the
reason that the act of Congress under
which the assembly will be convened
expressly states the qualifications of
voters.
These in brief are that the voter
must be at least % years of age
(Which was the Spanish requirement. I;
must be able to read and write either
Spanish or English, or must own a GER
tain small amount of property, or
must have been in the past an office
holder under the Spanish government.
These qualifications were framed upon
the old Spanish practice and no Philip
pine assembly can change them. The
new assembly or legislature will con-
sist of two houses to be known as the
Philippine compassion and the Philip
pine assembly, the latter to consist of
not less than fifty nor more than 100
members. 1t is probable that the pres
ent commission will be merged in the
upper house.

SMALLPOX IN PHILIPPINES.
Disease Almost Entirely Eradicated
NV Xaecinafiou

by Vaccination.
The records of the bureau of health at
Manila show that within the last twelve
months 213.000 have been vaccinated by
officials and many more by private physi-
clans. When it is remembered that Ma
nila's population is not more than 220,-
600, it can be understood why, in the
year ended Dec. 81. 1904, there were only
81 deaths from smallpox. Ten of the 81
were Europeans or Americans who had
neglected or avoided vaccination.
During the Spanish regime law ex-
listed making vaccination compulsory, but
the chief good which resulted from the
law was that the people became accus-
toned to its existence on the statute books
and did not greatly object to it or strenu-
ously resist its application at the hands
of the Americans. In few provinces diff
fculties were met. In these cases vacci-
majors were at once withdrawn and the
pueblos left to themselves. Within six
months the contrast between the vacci-
mated and unvaccinated pueblos was so
marked that the chief men of the object
ing municipalities requested the vaccina-
tors to return.
As smallpox is both epidemic and pam
demic in the Philippines, the necessity for
a division of vaccination in the board of
health is very great. The original plan
was to organize a corps of $50 vaccina-
tors. That number was considered neces-
sary in order to vacciuate the inhabitants
of the islands within three years. Owing
TO the depleted condition of the insular
treasury, the commission has been unable
to authorize the employment of so large
a number, and with the small number of
men available the question arises whether
vaccination will not have to be practiced
continuously for many years in order to
immunize the 100000 inhabitants who
are now in those islands and their off
spring as it arrives.

Discontent as n Disease.

DR.. A. Il. Mitchell, surgeon for the
Rock Island railroad, speaking before the
Chicago convention of railway surgeons,
said that the prevailing popular tendency
TO wage war on wealth and corporations
was form of neurasthenia, which sweeps
over the country like an epidemic. He
said the power which had enabled the few
to profit at the expense of the many was
the fault of the many. He showed that
men were led emotionally into destructive
methods, consequently the Hobbies main
tanned by corporations in different CAPT
tails were necessary to their self-preserva-
ton, because of the lower standard grow

is spreading itself in the form of hys-

that the handle behind her is out of reach,

forward handle, thus getting off with face
towards the front. At the same time the

there is danger of getting the hand caught

Unexpected Progress Being Made by

Unexpectedly good progress is being

expedition, which left Victoria, B. c.. on
May 20 in the schooner Duchess of Bed
ford to locate a new continent believed
to exist in the mysterious Beaufort Sea,
westward of Banks Island. Letters from
the explorers dated July % have been
received. They state that Point Hope,
originally intended as this winters base,
had been reached two months ahead of
the program. From Point Hope to Mimic
Inlet, Prince Albert Land, is less than a
thousand miles of open water, which the
schooner could cover in fortnight, and
she had two months of favorable weather
in which to do it. The crucial event of
the expedition is due in February, when
the party will make westward across the
ice packs for the unknown land. If this
land be found a new route to the pole

Six men wearing masks iaided the vii

Three of the men entered the Fash livery
barn near the bank and tied Fash to a
chair. Joseph Weyrich and Arthur Ra-
zenbee, farmers, who were putting up
their horses, were bound hand and foot
and left on the floor. Meanwhile the
other three men gave their attention to

Distributive dealings again have ex-

helps materially in reducing retail
stocks in both city and country. A
tendency toward Increased cost of sup

strength, and the need Of additional
force is more evident in the iron work
ing branches. Buying OF raw materials
continues very heavy, with prices firm

Disappointing receipts of lumber for
two weeks add to difficulty in obtain
ing adequate requirements, and smaller
arrivals of live stock interfere with
packing With these exceptions the
movement of commodities remains OF
enormous aggregate, being to larger
extent than usual made up of heavy
factory outputs and general merchan-
disc. There is increasing complaint of
slow deliveries by rail, yet mercantile
collections are reasonably prompt and
no serious defaults appear to disturb
the confidence Of sellers.
Current commitments in the manu-
featuring divisions, owing to the
crowded condition of bookings, have to
be mostly entered for execution during
the coming year Further demand is
noted upon rail mill capacity, but the
greatest pressure is upon the furnaces,
plate mills, shipyards and car shops.
Much of the volume of future work
will add to transportation facilities,
but there also is a great deal for new
