than the loss Of the man who has
been her husband.
All this Is like comic opera, but 1t
makes Cupid weep. He has been tell
ing the world for thousands of years
that marriage Is n sacred institution,
and now he first discovers that 1t Is
Joke.
The proportion of divorces to mar
riages in New York Is one in four.
In Chicago 1t Is one in nine; in San
Francisco 1t is one in four. The
further west you go the more fire.
quent are divorces. The decree sepa-
ration has hitched its wagon to the
star of empire. Kansas City, Los An
geles, and Seattle are as bad as San
Francisco, in each of these cities there
being one divorce to every four mar
riages. The statistics for Sioux Falls
are kept locked up in a reporter proof
vault.
The most notable case of the year,
perhaps, was the international tragedy
of the Castellanes. For years the
world had witnessed the extrava.
gances and indiscretions of Count
Boni and wondered how much longer
the poor countess would endure them
for the sake of her children. Ameri-
can sympathy, almost without excep-
ton, has been with Anna Gould, for
however much Jay Gould. the rail
road magnate, may have been dis
trusted his daughters always were
popular. Count Castellane was a ri
diculous joke to people who took life
lightly and an exaggerated villain to
those who took it seriously.
Troubles of Heiresses and Titles.
When the countess finally left her
husband, people on both sides OF the
Atlantic said 1t served him right. The
matter of separation has been set
tied, but the count still is clamorins

The domestic wreck Of the Marlbor
oughs was more of a surprise to the
world There had been rumors oil
disagreements, but these were moi
thought to be serious. The duke OF
Marlborough, like the count dc Cas-
telane, was not able to understand
the character of American girls. They
might be attracted by title, but they
would not submit to the indiscretions
1T Is a mild word-of their hus

Love Leaves After Many Years.

1t is small wonder that Senator Platt
declared in one of his latest inter-
views that his life as he had lived 1t
was not worth the living" and that
IL he had the years back he would
spend them differently. Rich and
powerful as he is he finds nothing in
his old age to compensate him for the
disrupted home.

nate of Cleveland, was the central

of the year. Perhaps he was spoiled

a good wife, II what he says be true
Or II his wife was good, as she de
clares she was, then the aged New
York senator was not wise enough to
keep her. He is not the first man
marked by Cupid, however, as being
unable to live up to his own epigrams
When the separation of the Platts
occurred few months ago Mrs. Platt
defled her husband, Notwithstanding
the charges he made, and threatened
to bring suit against him. She In
sisted that he should give her a share
of his riches. She is quoted as say
ing: HE bought my beauty; now let
him pay for it." IF the senator did
not pay in money, at least he paid in
sorrow and humiliation and loss OF
dignity-paid to the last farthing.

severe in his criticism OF the policy
II the Secretary OF the Treasury. He
declares that the certificates are not
warranted by a proper construction
u the Law and expresses the hope
that the public win not buy them.
II is difficult to see how the certifi-
Gates are going TO add TO the country's
supply of money IL win take $780,
O0O,O 900 OF cash to buy the certificates
even If they are sold at par. and they
cannot be sold for less. In order TO
prevent this amount OF money from
going out of the banks and the usual
channels of circulation, the bankers
of New York would not agree TO take
the certificates except ON condition
thar the funds paid for them were
to remain on deposit. The banks viii
therefore keep the money and receive
from the government three per ent on
the amount paid for the bonds.
This practically amounts To the Fed
eral Government paying the banks
three per cent to safely keep It's de-
posits. Not a bad trade for the New
York bankers, but rather costly for
the government. The supply OF money
will not be increased, but the public
debt of the United States, which Is
a charge upon the revenues of the gov
eminent. will be larger by $780, 1000,
and in addition interest to the amount
of $4,000, 600 will have to be paid on
the debt. This will be bonus to the
Eastern bankers. What practical ben
efts the government or the people are
to derive from this expenditure Is dif-
ncult for the ordinary lay mind to
understand.
The whole transaction is similar 70
the scandal attending the sale OF the
old custom house in New York to the
National City Bank. This property
was purchased by the bank, the pur'
chase price being allowed to remain
| on deposit for several years, not one
cent of interest being paid to the gov
eminent. In the meantime no deed
was made to the bank and the prop
ertv continued to stand on record IN
the name of the government and no
taxes were paid on 1t either to the
city county or State. But the bank
paid no rent Counting interest on
the deposit, rents and taxes saved,
il has been estimated that the bank
made aaprofit of over $2,5OO,oO0.

The stock yards are to be located on
the north side of the track about
two blocks east Of their present To-
cation according to the blueprint in
question. However, the action of
the company in charging the wait

depot will be erected for some time.

before the floor was reached he
struck a small door to one of the

saved him from receiving fatal in

ON THIS AFTERNOON.

This afternoon the sale of the sea-
son tickets for next seasons lecture
course Is in progress at the Con-
gregational church and the maner in
which the tickets are being engaged
is very flattering indeed. There will
be no trouble whatever in disposing
of all the seats in the church, hun
dreds were engaged this afternoon.
The people realize more and more
each year the value of the lecture
course and the demand for tickets
becomes greater each season. There
has not been the least dissatisfaction
expressed over the seasons course
Just ended. There could be no dis
satisfaction, for a better course no
city three times this size in the coun-
try never had. And next years course
will be stronger and better, II such q
thing is possible. The scramble for
the first choice of tickets this after
noon was very lively indeed and alto
gether good-natured.
