The Stormy Gulf.

The Culf Of Mexico is water OF
storms, not frequent. but frenziedly
violent. 1t is, in effect. an immense
scal!op cut from the land and hurri-
canes seem to gravitate to it naturally.
They are born in the neighbOrhOOd Of
the Saragossa sea, strike the West In
dies and not infrequently leave those
islands at a tangent, Just as a ball
thrown at an obtuSe angle against a
wall slides along it for a little space
and again seeks vacancy. These err
ratio forces of the air strike the coast
Of Mexico or the coast of Texas. ac-
cOrding to their angle, and death Is in
their track. The things called tidal
waves in that section are not really
tidal waves. They are not caused by
an upheaval They are merely local in
effect. They are not vast walls Of
water moving with resistless speed
and weight over the face of the ocean.
They are waters banked up against a
low coast by wind pressure until they
overflow. In many instances the SUBJ
mergence is gradual, and ample oppor-
tunity for escape is given. Other times
the violence Of the air makes them
sudden, and people are drowned.-St

Early Marriage Results.

Divorces are, happily, rare in society
circles. Separation by mutual consent,
however, grows more frequent every
year. Every one has upon his or her
visiting list husbands and wives who
never meet if they can help it, but be-
tween whom there has never been an
open breach. Incompatibility Of tenn
per is the usual cause, and the reason
for that is, one imagnes, the still com
mon custom of encouraging the young
er generation to marry before they
have begun to approach years Of dis
cretiOn.~Londou Throne.

SAD DEATH OF
YOUNG WOMAN
Mrs. Edwin r. Coard Succunnbs to
Chronic Illness After invalidism
OF Two Years.

The many friends Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Edwin F. Coard, OF ia Cerrll os
Street, We're saddened this morning by
the news of the death of Mrs. Coard
which occurred while she slept,
shortly after midnight last night. The
end came peacefully. The young ma
tron was 27 years 5 months and 4
days old. Mrs. Coard had many
friends both in Santa Fe and in Las
Vegas where she formerly lived and
the heoric manner in which she bore
the long illness which resulted in her
death, was generally commented upon.
She was born in Quincy, Illinois,
June 2G, 1879, and lived in that city
with her parents until forced to come
to New Mexico for her health, August
81, 1904. She was united in marriage
to Edwin f. Coard at st. Peters Cath
olic Church in Quincy. Her maiden
name was Miss Grace Lillian O'Neill.
Mr. and Mrs. Coard made their home
in Quincy until two years ago when
failing health caused Mrs. Coard to
come to Las Vegas. Two months later
she was followed BY her husbang who
seou,cti a i,ueitiu1 on Jile sIaH CT the
Las Vegas Optic. About six months
ago Mr.. and Mrs. Coard came to Santa
Fe and Mr.. Coard began work as a
reporter on the New Mexican, which
position he still holds.
Following her arrival here, Mrs
Coard contracted a severe cold which
so aggravated her malady that she
never recovered and, for some time
prior to her death, she was unable
| to leave her bed Last week it became
apparent that she could not recover
and she was told that the end was
near. She faced death with the same
calm resignation with which she had
endured her illness and said that she
was resigned to her fate. Saturday
Rev. Antonio Fourchegu, vicar genera
of the diocese of Santa Fe, admins
tered the last rites of the Catholic
Church of which Mrs. Coard had beer
a lifelong member
Her death was not expected las
night although it was known that sh,
had but a few days to live. No on,
was at the bedside when the end cam,
but her husband.
Besides Mr.. Coard, Mrs. Coard j
survived by her parents, Mr. and Mrs
Michael O'Neill, both of whom are Il
such feeble health that they coul
not come to Santa Fe from thei
home at Quincy. One sister also sui
wives her, Mrs. Edward Rush, o
i Quincy, and four brothers, John H
O'Neil of Columbus, Ohio, George NJ
| O'Neill, of New York City, Alfred {

Of Quincy.
Mr. Coard will leave with the IN
mains tomorrow morning and Mrs
Coard will be inferred in her wet

to Santa Fe and will resume his dutie
