own love of the man was not realized
until after she had known of the trou-
Bile existing between the Earles. 1t
was Mrs. Earle herself who urged
Miss Kuttner to marry Earle, especial
" rs he had agreed to let her have the
custody of their little boy. Miss Kutt-
ner said she had such wonderful UNI
derstanding of Mr.. Earle that she had
thought she could help the wife to un-
derstand him.
Declaring that he could no longer
stand the false position in which he
had been placed by mendacious re-
ports, Mr.. Earle gave to the press a
long statement telling how he came to
meet Miss Kuttner In settlement work,
how the acquaintance grew by chance
meetings on ship board and in Europe
and how when they discovered their
feeling they wrote the joint letter to
Mrs. Earle, saw her parents in Paris
and made an amicable arrangement.
lie also published letter written by
his wife to a mutual friend last month
showing her not only willing but anS-
ious for separation and giving her
blessing to Miss Kuttncr. She said the
change gave a more hopeful and peace
full face to her own life.

Tho Regulation of Warfare.

While various peace propositions
have been under consideration by COM
mittees Of The Hague conference, 1t
should be understood that no decision
Is final until adopted unanimously Mt
full plenary session of the conference.
Such a session was held Sept. Z, when
large number of rules were adopted
relating to the regulation of warfare.
One of particular interest to the small
er powers was that the territory Of q
neutral should be inviolable and that
such state may protect Its neutrality
by force without committing hostile
act. This principle had already been
recognized in practice, but now be-
comes embodied In International law.
The right Of asylum is also defined so
that If prisoner who has once reach
ed neutral ground should be recap
tured he must be set free. Another
rule follows practice in not permitting
volunteers to be enlisted in neutral
territory or body of flibusters organ
lied. Belligerents are also forbidden
to establish wireless telegraph stations
or other means Of communication in
neutral territory. The expectation of
provisions from neutral states to bel
ligerent ports is forbidden. Finally
the rule was adopted that hostillties
must not begin without previous un.
equivocal notice in the form either OF
a declaration of war, setting forth Its
motives, or Of an ultimatum accompa.
MED with conditional declaration OF
war, and state of war must be mott.
fed without delay to neutral powers.
French In Morocco Aggressive.
Through the use of captive balloon

six niles away. With this informa-

person led q force of six companies In

Arab commander made gallant de

to flee, and his camp was burned. i

RELIG1oUs
Head rheosophist Arrives,

Mrs. Annie Besant the recently
elected president OF the Theosophical
society and the best known living writ
er on the subject has just come to
America to attend the conference Of
the society at Chicago in October. Be
fore starting west Mrs. Besant talked
freely with the New York newspaper
men who came to meet her at the pier.
She was inclined to agree with the
race suicide theories Of President
Roosevelt for the rich, but not for the
poor. Speaking of theosophy she said:
II believe that the soul is an undying,
never quiescent force just like cleo
tricity, only infinitely finer and more
subtle a thing. 1t is an energy like

She explained further that the the
osophists do not limit their following
to any sect or creed. She said Mrs.
Eddy was right in advancing the power
of thought transference, but wrong in
attributing to it q curative effect.
Civil Marriages Recognized.
Pope Plus x. has modified the mar
riage laws of the Catholic church SO
as to recognize the validity of civil
marriage made before two witnesses
without the assistance of a priest.
This decree will go into effect at
Easter, 1908. 1t is return to the
conditions which prevailed before the
council Of Trent. In Italy the church
has suffered because of the refusal to
acquiesce In civil marriage, which was
the only marriage authorized under
the laws of united italy. The result
was to make it possible for man to
have two wives, one under the state
and the other under the church law,
thus virtually encouraging bigamy.

American Marriages Fall.

!; Why American Marriages Fail.
Again a woman is finding fault with
American wives and complaining Of
the failure Of American marriages.
This time It Is Anna A. Rogers in the
Atlantic Monthly. who says that "the
excessive education and excessive
physical coddling Of young women"
and their devotion to physical culture
and sports have evolved hybrid fem

more intuitive, refined. unseltsh and
spiritual, but at the present time are
distinctly inferior to men In initiative,
resource, power and breadth Of view.
It undertak es to show that these men
tai differences between men and wom-
en- are not fundamental or the result
Of sex, but are caused by environment
and heredity; that when each sex is
fully developed there will not be, as
now, masculine traits and feminine
traits, but simply human traits; that
women viii be as mathematical, log

men. and men will BIO as intuitive, re-
fined and spiritual as women. It Is a
strong plea for extending democracy
into all phases of human life. Fur
thermore, there are given good rea-
CONS for believing that the diminutive
stature and inferior strength now
characteristic OF women are the re-
suit not Of sex, but OF habits of life
and heredity. Those who accept the
