NEW JERSEY MARITAL DRAMA
Prominent Families of Red Bank Said to Be Involved In Divorce "TanqIe.

Newark, N. J., Sept 23.-The New York American says that two of the most prominent families of Red Bank, whose heads are rich New York stock brokers, are involved in a domestic tangle which at present looks very much like a double divorce suit, with a $100,000 alienation of affections suit as an added feature.
 William Henry Van Week, the younger of the two men, whose busi- ness is at S7 Fulton street has already had divorce papers served upon his wife, a dainty, fair haired little wom- an. Charles M Currie, the elder broker, whose offices are at 60 Broadway, is named in the suit.
 Mrs. Currie. a handsome. statuesque matron, also blue eyed and fair haired, has not yet served papers upon her husband. but she said she was consid- ering that course and that Mrs. Van Weeks name would occupy conspic- uous place in the documents.
 The damage suit, according to both women, is being prepared by Mir Van Vleck, and notification will be served upon Mir. Currie as soon as the legal forms can be made out Moonlight rides behind Currie's pair of thorough bred trotters figure largely in all the complaints. So likewise do a number of interesting letters written to Currie and signed Laura" wh, a is the Christian name of Mrs. Van Week.

paign. So, 1t seems that Marse Henry
 Watterson's cry of back to the con-
 stitution" is not so funny as some of
 the paragraphers of the country
 think it is, says Washington writ
 ter. This cry of the Roosevelt ad-
 ministration for greater centralized
 government, greater power in the
 hands of the executive, radiacl
 change in our system of government,
 is making sharp issue for the next campaign and the democrats of the next congress have got to force the issue and make 1t well defined so that he who runs may read. If this Is to be Hamiltonian form of government as contradistinguished from Jeffer- sonian form, then the issue should come now and the people should have a chance to decide the matter at the polls. But, at the same time the democrats ought not to put up candidate who, in the remotest de- gree agrees with Roosevelt or any of his pet candidates for the presidency, whether it be Taft or any other man. If it is to be Roosevelt himself, then the issue will be more sharply defined and to it will be added the other is- sue of the third term He then will be breaking one of the sacred tradi- tions of the country as well as clam bring for legislative as we'll as exe- cutive power. This extra power in the hands of the general government involves the very life of state rights 1 and any man inside the democratic | party who bubbles the least bit ! about state rights ought not to be 1 made the candidate. Our candidate l should be man who can read his title clear on both these subjects, as they will be bound to come up in the next race as two of the big issues of the campaign.

The annual statement of the comp troller of the currancy on the condl- ton of all national banks of the
 country under the call of September
 is an exceptionally important one
 says Banker Clews. Comparisons
 are available with the figures of May 20 this year and September f last year. In the case of the former the loans and discounts show the large expansion of 47 million dollars, while the corresponding figures for last year show the rather startling eXpan- son of more than 379 millions. AS a partial offset, there has been an in crease of 6S millions in specie and 9 millions in legal tenders, while de- posits has increased 119 millions. An appreciable part of this expansion un- doubtedly represents the transfer of loans to this country from abroad; but it nevertheless also reflects strain Nupon the financial situation which foreign money centers are not in a position to relieve in tue form of abstract loans. On the other hand, we may unquestionably rely upon the beneficial effects of large exports of our agricultural products, of which we have a sufficiently adequate supply to export at the favorable prices con ditions abroad will compel buyers there to pay. It is quite evident that there is ample room to adjust prices to favorable export basis if it should prove the present range is too high: cotton. for instance, is abont ? 1-2c per pound higher than a year ago, wheat is 25c per bushel in round figures corn 15c and oats 25c.

Yesterdays outpouring of people
 and money to aid and assist Monsig- nor Slocum in the stupendous and hu- mane work he has undertaken of
 building and equipping a hospital
 must have made his heart glad. The day was a red letter one for Water bury both as to the number that were out, the people who attended and the amount of money collected. Gov ernor Woodruff and several of his staff honored the occasion by their presence. and the governors in- teresting address was received with rounds of applause. Mayor Thoms also spoke a few words of encourage ment for the benefactor and praise for those who are aiding him in the work. Bishop Tierney paid a glow ing tribute to the Catholics of Water bury and said he was sure God would bless Monsignor SlOCum and his peo- pie for this grand work. Rev John Neale. of Terryville. was the orator of the day. and during his discourse he was frequently interrupted by the applause of the assembled thousands. The affair was ably managed by the acting pastor. Rev James E. O'Brien. and his assistants IL was a day long to be remembered. and a work in which all the people are interested as was shown by the long line of marchers and the presence at the site of the new hospital of SO many Cath plies as well as non-Catholics.

Whisky Not a Cure.

Whisky neither cures nor prevents
consumption, as many people believe,
according to the annual report of the
Henry Phipps Institute. Philadelphia,
one of the leading institutions in the
United States for the treatment of
tuberculosis. The report, which has
just been issued. says:
CAS- our statistics on alcoholism in
tuberculosis grow, it becomes more and
more manifest that all extreme views
upon this subject will have to be aban-
doned. That alcohol neither prevents
nor cures tuberculosis is evident from
the number of alcoholics who have
come for treatment; and that it does
not strongly predispose to the disease
seems to stand out prominently from
the vast preponderance of nonalcoholics
among the applicants for treatment.
Neither can it be shown that the chill
dren of alcoholics are more prone to
tuberculosis than the children of nom
alcoholics

always present, tendency TO perspire and
fatigue easily, ringing in the ears, some
times black spots passing before the eyes,
weak back, vertigo, wakefuness caused by
inability to stop thinking, and unrefreshing
sleep. The cause of the trouble may be
i some drain on the system or it may be
mental or physical overwork, sometimes
insufficient nutrition due to digestive dis
turbance. In the latter case there is gen.
orally loss of appetite and coated tongue
