DIVORCE FOR QUEEN
POSSIBILITY OF LAW

Form New Alliance if
She Chooses.

The Hague, Sept. 1.-Queen Wilhel-
nina Of the Netherlands was 26 years
old yesterday. Usually the birthday
jolly celebration at the royal palace,
but Friday passed with no festivities to
mark 1t as the anniversary of the birth
Of the queen. The royal family and
their friends, as well as the whole peo-
pie OF the Nctherl ands, are still sorrow
ing with her majesty over the recent
OBSTRUCTION of their hopes for an heir
to the throne, so the beloved queen re-
ceived many beautiful presents and
messages of love and we'll wishes, but
in no other way was the day celebrated.
Quite naturally the people are wor-
rying about the succession to the
throne, should the queen continue child
less. Queen Wilhelmina married Prince
Henry Of Mccklenburg- schwerin, Feb.
7, 1901. They have, therefore, been
married five years and nearly eight
months. According to the original
constitution of the Netherlands, given
in 1915, there is clause which has still
been retained even after the revisions
Of 1S4S and 1887. According to this
lands may divorce the royal consort and
, form a. new matrimonial alliance if,
after five years from the date of the
| marriage no male or female heir to the
throne n Be. born. - i. :5,@ f.
= AS to the Succession.
Not only in America but also on the
continent strange misapprehensio
seems to exist concerning the success
| sion to the Dutch throne. It has been
stated that in the event of Queen Will
| helmlna dying without issue the grand
duke of Sake eimar would not re-
! nounce his throne to become liking of
Holland,' and that next to him come
the three sons Of Prince. Albert of
Prussia and then ''the hereditary
Prince and Princess of Wied'
Now, if the Grand Duke Of Sake
Weimar were to decline to accept the
Dutch throne the succession would
pass; to his aunt, Princess Reuss-the
! wealthy widow of a former German
ambassador at Vienna-who has two
sons: If her line fail, the next heir
! would be Prince Albert of Prussia, son
OF the late Princess Marianne of the
Netherlands, and then his three sons.
After them would come the Princess of
WED, and if her line became extinct
Prince Waldemar, third son Of the late
King, Christian TX. of Denmark, who is
married to Princess Marie d'Orleans.

Failing here, the throne might legally

The Queen a Tease.

Notwithstanding the fact that she
takes a serious and intelligent inter-
est in affairs of state, Queen Wilhel-
nina has reputation for her love of
fun. and is said to be an inveterate
tease. She Is also excessively fond of
sport. The ponds in the park ground
offer opportunity for rowing in sum
mer and skating in winter, in which
the queen likes to take active part.
. Queen Wilhelmina is devoted

Amsterdam or The Hague. She has
a fresh soprano voice, which can be
heard turnout the service by the small
community of worshipcrs.

accomplishment is painting, and she ID

the belt the shocks have been hardly
felt. Each one is preceded by a loud
rumbling, like heavy thunder, which
can be heard approaching from the
northwest before it reaches Socorro.
Senior Baca of Socorro, until recent
~ district attorney, is here with his
family. He says that people are leay-
ing on every train and those who can
not ride on the railroad are leaving
by wagon. About 1000 people are
camping out in tents and no one dares
to 30 indoors. Practically every resi-
dence and business block in the town
has been irreparably damaged.

BLACKDUCK TO
GET NEW CHURCH
Catholics Are to Erect a $4,000
or $1,000 Building This
Summer.

The Catholic parish of Black
duck is to build a new church
building. Work will be begun as
soon as bids are advertised for
and considered and the contract
awarded. The bids are to be-
opened August 1.
1t is planned to put up a mod.
est, though substantial, building,
to cost in the neighborhood of
$4,000 or $4,000. 1t will be a
frame structure and will be 44x32
feet in dimensions. This will
provide amply for the present
Blackduck congregation. Rev.
John O'Dwyer, pastor of the
local Catholic church, has charge
of the Blackjack parish.
R. T. Praught, an influential
business man and church worker
of Blackjack, was in Bemidji
yesterday on business connected
with the new church.
Seeking Information.
D. W. Hayden of Blackjack,
appointed to look after the burial
of friendless old soldiers in this
county, is seeking information
regarding the regiment and COM
pany of John Smith, a veteran
who died three years ago at
Battle River, and now lies buried
on a farm near that postofice.
The grave is in a neglected con.
dition and Mr.. Hayden wishes to
have the body removed to some
cemetery. All that is known of
Smith is that his people hail
from Rochester, N. Y, and that
he was staying with Ed Foy near
Battle River at the time of his
death. Anyone having informa-
ton regarding Smiths war
record will be comforting a favor
by communicating with Mr..
Hayden at Blackduck.
