SOCIOLOGICAL
Statistics of Divorce.

The census bureau has gathered sta
tistics showing that In the last ten
years 100000 suits for divorce have
been begun In this country, or at the
rate of 10000 q year. The forthcom-
ing report on these statistics will con-
tain an analysis of the different COM
plants on which separation was asked.
1t Is estimated that two-thirds Of the
cases were successful. There remain
about 10000 cases to be investigated,
and the whole subject is to be brought
to the attention Of congress.

Are Voting Machines LesaI7
The supreme judicial court of Massa-

use Of voting machines is not permits

aroused no little comment and has led
to the assertion that If the machines

they must be also in New York and
perhaps other states.

washington Glau- mas been carrying on
oeh Presbyterian propa-
gandas among labor unions, now says,
For thousands Of workingmen social
ism has become q substitute for the
church, the idealism of earthly propa-
ganda taking the place of the visions
and ideals Of the religious faith" The
Rev. DR.. A. A. Berle has been prod
ding the theological schools in q series
Of sharp criticisms, holding that the
Socialists make better use of the BIZ
BILE for the purposes Of moral appeal
than do the ministers. Not long ago
the national council of the Congrega-
tional church was stirred by DR.. Wash
ington Gladden's sermon in which he
said the fundamental principle Of our
present social system Is self interest
and that nothing can march hellward
faster than democracy based on
this" He spoke of enormous wealth as
"the fruit Of plumber by billions of fic-
titious capital extorting interest and
Of the resentment of the many whose
industry Is exploited by the few.
But Current Literature finds that at
this juncture the churches are meeting
the rivalry Of socialism in friendly
spirit. A number Of religious journals
are printing articles friendly to So
cialism. Among these Is the New York
Observer presbyterian, In which in a
three page article, "Will Socialism Be
Established In American the author.
DR.. George s. Payton. says there is an
undeniable charm In the conception OF
q state In which each Is for all and
all for each and adds that that charm
is ''the charm of light from the sun Of
righteousness" The same spirit Of
sympathy is found in two new books
widely discussed in the religious pa
pers-namely, christianity and the
Social Crisis" by Professor Rauschen-
bush. who thinks that Christianity has
lost power because of its abandonment
Of its social mission, and 1.-THE Church
and the Changing Order" by Profess
or Smaller Mathews, editor of The
World Today. Both authors disclaim
the title of Socialist, but both show
strong socialistic leanings. In England
the tide is running even more strong
ly In this direction, and there are now
many thousands of Socialists within
the English churches, including such
we'll known leaders as DR.. John Cliff
ford, the pastor Of the most influential
church In London; DR.. Stopford Brooke,
the eminent Unitarian scholar; Canon
Scott Holland of st. Paul's cathedral,
and the Rev. r. J. Campbell, who is
lecturing under Socialist auspices. The
Christian Commonwealth is the name
of the most ardent theological journal
championing socialism, and it devotes
space to Socialist news regularly.

Presidents View of Elections.

| Presidents View of Elections.
| In a formal statement issued at
| Washington Thursday President Roose-
welt said the result Of the elections was
extremely gratifying and that he had
sent letter Of congratulation to Mr..
Heney of San Francisco. The victory
In New Jersey, he says, is just what
happened there in the middle of the
Mckinley administration nine years
| ago. AS compared with the elections
| next preceding the last presidential, or
in 1908, the Republicans have done bet
ter, thinks the president, considering
especially the sweeping victory in
Kentucky for the first time since the
first Mckinley vote. The result in
Manhattan he finds to be due to purely
local causes. The president went home
to vote.
Last Weeks Election Results.
New York. - The Republican indie
pendence League fusion forces met
with defeat in New York city, Tam
many's candidate for sheriff, Tom Fo-
ley, and the candidates for judgeships
winning with the reduced plurality of
about $4,000. The league polled only
10000 votes in the entire state as
compared with six times as many for
Hearst last year. Leader Murphy calls
1t "the elimination Of Hearst" McCar-
rem lost Brooklyn to the Republicans.
The vote was light.

Every member of household In which
q consumptive lives will be inspected,
and where there is a sign of i'll health
the suspected person will be persuaded
to adopt precautionary measures. In
this way 1t is hoped the state will be
able to check the spread of "the great
white plague" by discovering hundreds
of cases in the early stages, when a
cure is probable. The difficulty which
has been experienced in snnitarium
work heretofore is that cases are not
reached until they are too far advanced

A Practical Dress Reformer.
Mrs. Anna q. Noyes tells in the
independent how she has put into
practice recently her protest against
the tyranny Of fashion in the matter
Of clothes by the creation of an orig
!nal wardrobe embodying simplicity,
beauty, utility. comfort and economy
Mrs. Noyes complains that the changes
in fashion move In circle and that at
the end of century the only results
are "the final abolition Of the hoop
skirt, reduction in the weight and
number of petticoats and the one piece
undergarment next the skin" A few
months ago Mrs. Noyes suffered the
loss of all her clothes in fire. so that
she had the problem of her entire
wardrobe to consider. Among the
more important objects she had in
view were to find convenient method
Of putting on and off her dress. so that
she need not have to depend upon her
husband for buttoning; to find q skirt
pattern full enough for comfort in
walking or running and so cut as 70
hold its shape and be becoming; to dis
tribute the weight Of her clothes on
her body so as to be free from dis
comforts; to provide enough pockets SO
that she need not have to hook on or
carry bag; to follow the natural curves
Of her body in the design of her dress
and not drag in extraneous deformi
ties; to select color in tone with her
own color; to choose as textiles wool
for warmth. linen for GOODNESS, silk
for cleanliness and only those mate
rials which could be readily washed
and changed with least expense in the
long run: to find hat becoming to
her and then to wear 1t as long as
there was wear in it; to wear shoes or
sandals that fitted her feet; to elimi
nate starch and all jewelry but watch
and brooch to secure 1t and hairpins.
Her dresses fasten with hooks and
eyes under the plat at the left, open
ing from the yoke to about eight inches
below the waist. They are all in one
piece except those in which the yoke
counts as q second. Under those with
out yoke she wears a china silk under
waist with as high neck and long
sleeves as those Of the dress. The I'M
derwaists and guimpes are OF wash
able silk or linen. She is able to
change her dress, taking off one and
putting on another, in three minutes
without assistance and no mirror, as
nothing eau go crooked and nothing
can come apart. One silk dress, with
guimpe, weighs six ounces and anoth-
er four and five-tenths ounces.

Priest Replies to Pope.

In his reply to Pope Plus X, for
which he has been virtually excom-
municated by the head of the church,
Father Tyrell, the English Jesuit, re-
fuses to accept the implications of the
pope's document that he as a modern
list places himself outside the pale Of
the church. In severe terms he ar
raigns the document for identifying
true Catholicism with q science the
Dry and psychology that are as strange
as astrology to the modern mind and
are practically unknown outside sem
mary walls save to the historian of
philosophy" He says the encyclical
as an argument falls dead for every
one who regards it's science theory as
obsolete, for all who believe that truth
has not been stagnating for centuries
in theological seminaries, but has been
steadily streaming on with ever in
creasing force and volume in the chan
nels which liberty has opened to its
progress" He characterizes the docu-
ment as "a clear and final demonstra-
ton Of the futility Of pouring new wine
INTO old bottles, of the attempt to gath
er the experiences Of the twentieth
century under the categories of the
thirteenth. Of coming to terms with an
