 Judge Shumway had fourteen divorce cases before him for consideration at the short calendar session of the su- perior court yesterday.

The judge heard the cases in which the par ties reside in different states, notwith- standing the recent decision of the su- prerne court. The cases on the list fol- low:

keeper had just pushed under the bars.
It stood before the food, which it took

the air from it's foot to it's mouth con-

The Sin of Insurance.

'When life insurance was first insti-
tuted," said an antiquary, ''the church
and pious people generally were dead
set against it, They said that it was
gambling in human lives. They said,
too, that it would encourage murder.
They were right in a way. Life in
surance is gambling in human lives
only the odds are so greatly in the
companies favor that they can never
lose 1t is also an encouragement to
murder. A good many murders are
committed every year for the sake Of
life insurance policies. But these evils
are no more than fly specks on the
great benefcent life insurance bodies.
Life insurance does so much good that
the evils attendant on it are by CONF
parison nil.'

THE WILD CARROT.
One of the Most Interesting of Ou
Native Plants.

One of the Most Interesting of Our
Native Plants.
A weed has been defined as "a plant
that persists in growing where it is not
desired" Surely the wild carrot is a
most weedy weed from the point Of
view of that definition and of the dis
like of the farmer AS to the per-
SiStence. our veteran farmer naturalist
John Burroughs tells us: Cut OFF the
head Of the wild carrot. and in week
there are five heads in room of the
one. Cut off these, and by fall there
are ten looking defiance at you from
the same root
The only fault Of the wild carrot,
as Of other so called weeds, is too great
success in life. 1t is guilty only of
persistence. But from a nature lovers
point of view there are, strictly speak
ing, no weeds. No plant is disliked.
On the contrary, the more plant is
able to strive successfully for life the
more Of interest it is. We can also
see and appreciate the beauty without
the ''weedy" dislike.
If in this spirit observers will eX-
anime the wild carrot the verdict will
be that it is one Of the prettiest and
most interesting Of our native plants.
The beauty is especially noticeable in
the full bloom, or Queen Annes lace,
form. Perhaps some may regard the
birds nest form as the most interest
ing.-Exc"ange.

BRITISH CASTE.
Love OF the Eng1isbman For a Titled
Ruling Class.


Ruling Class.
The presence of personal sovereign
is the outward and visible sign that
caste is still supreme in the British en-
pire. The external abuses of the feudal
system have been abolished in Great
Britain, one by one. until those that
still linger are almost harmless, but
the inner spirit survives to this late
day, and even now it's manifestations
are abundant in almost every part of
the social structure Of the British Isles.
There is still alive the fiction that the
king rules and that the army of the
empire is his majesty's army. There is
still willing acceptance of the titled
aristocracy and also of an upper house,
the vast majority of whose members
sit there by the right Of birth c1ly,
without regard to their individual
merits.
No doubt the British people could
change these things speedily and with
out violence if they really desired to
get rid of this inheritance from feudal-
ism. But they have not got rid of it,
and this is evidence enough that they
do not wish to do so.
The British see no reason to abolish
a state Of affairs which the American
people look at with amazed wonder as
a survival of the dark ages. A native
American finds it wholly impossible to
understand the mental attitude of
certain man of letters in London, who
justified his ingrained toryism by the
assertion that he simply would not be
ruled by his eQuals.-Reader.
