LAWS FOR WIFE PROTECTION.

The rights OF wives and mothers TO
protection from the inhumanity of
those Ia whom they, theoretically Mt
least, look for support and shelter
from the Ills of life, are recognized
more and moro every day, not only
by individuals, but by the authorities
and by the law-maklng bodies. The
constituted authorities and the pow
crs that control owe protection to the
dcfenscless, and about tho most de-
fenscloss persons In tho world arc
the wives and offspring of men who
seek to shlrli duty and responsibility
by deserving them.
In Maine the legislature recently
In session enacted a severe law iii
this relation. 1t provides that any
aLlc.bodicd man who refuses or ne.
elects to support his family, or fails
to try TO do SO, may be prosecuted
before certain courts, and upon con-
viction may be fined or imprisoned ut
hard labor, In the discretion of the
court Where the fine Is imposed
the court may In It's discretion cause
half the amount to be paid to the FAM
lily, Whore Imprisonment Is impos-
cd, the county commissioners shall
pay to the family so cents n day for
every day of the term for which the
offender is sentenced. One arrest
and one sentence shall lie no bar to
successive and repeated punishments
for continuance of non support. Tho
court Is made the sole judge of II
mans ability to support his family.
Indiana also has new law, which
has just taken effect. 1t makes wife
dcscrtion felony, punishable by I'M
prisonmcnt and fine. and provides
methods of procedure. These and 9TH
CT laws meet IL growing evil espec-
tally in the large cities. 1t is an easy

To Aid Young Astronomer

J. E. Mellish, the Cottage Grove farmer boy who, with the aid of a handmade telescope, discovered two comets within year, will not have to use his old glass any longer. He was today notified that he will be permit ted to use any of the apparatus at the Washburn observatory whenever he de- sires. He will be given such help in pursuing his study of astronomy as he desires from the best men in the Uni versity of Wisconsin.
 He has also been offered the same privileges at the Yerkes observatory of the University of Chicago, at Lake Ge- neva, Wis, but prefers to work at Washburn, because he can then work at his farm chores in the daytime and study the heavens at night.-Madison (Wis.) dispatch to the New York Times.

AND HIS NAME WAS MUD. .
(By J. Watt Hoguel

(By J. Watt Hogue) A man used long on the price of stock, As he watched it slowly rise; The stock board showed marginal gain To him, so deep and wise. He baited his hook with dollars good, The fruits of his toiling years; The turing light of wealth shown bright And the stock board showed no fears. But alas and alack! other men fished With bait to lure him deep; The spider caught in his web this man i; His stock went down with leap. The fates of chance for the man who
 fished
 Was arranged for heavy thud; The prize looked we'll in fancy s way, But the fish ne caught was "Mud. l"

THE DECLINE IN STOCKS

Since January l the quoted prices of exchange have shrunk about $4,000,000,- 900, or something near the 40 per cent mark. It has been an orderly retreat. The average level is now the lowest since December, 1900. This stupendous loss, stated in the aggregate is, of course, on paper. A large proportion of it, however, is real, being represented by every purchase since the high level of year ago, and sale at lower figures. The loss has been shared by big finan- cial powers, which stood behind their properties, and the public. Holders who have bought stocks in the past seven years now find themselves with property quoted at less than they paid for it..
 This slaughter of prices in the past ten months has not been because of in trinsic failure of value. It has been simply because prices were too high The properties of this country were never so valuable as now. Five years Of growth and unparalleled prosperity have gone into the fiber of their worth. But no security has so much merit that it  cannot be overstated in quoted prices.
 Prosperity itself brought about the imitation of prices. Enterprises of all kinds made money. The number of peo- pie with surplus from hundreds to hundreds of thousands increased many fold. They saw the price of stocks going up and up and still up, until the speculative fever became irresistible. They looked not for investments, but for speculations. Instead of buying bonds or mortgages at 1 to 6 per cent, they bought the more sensitive stocks, without regard to dividends. Those who bought outright have no squeeze to fear, but those who have held on mar gins have had very bad year. And the latter are in the vast majority.

ADJUSTMENTS
"Jack O. Diamond,

One of the best of the Spooner Ora matic company s offerings during their present engagement at Dreamland was the above popular melodrama last night. From start to finish the play was full of interest, and in the second act, where Jack makes the discovery of his wife s yielding to the tempter, there was some exquisitely fine art displayed. It is doubtful if the scene could be acted as we'll by any actor in more finished portrayal than that presented by MT. Wallock.
 Tonight they will present "The Law yer's Wedding, or a Fight for Mil lion," one of their strongest bills, and we predict for them a crowded house, as their acting last night was of high order and of class that will bring out the most intelligent people.
