NOBLE HUSBANDS BAD,
SAYS BOOTH HARRINGTON
BLAMES AMERICAN PARENTS FOR
THEIR FOLLY
Author Says He Is "Dissusted with
Idiocy of Some Americans,
with More Money Than
Sense"

NEW YORK, Oct. 26-Alliances of
American girls with evil representatives
of the Old World nobility and the willing
ness of some American parents to permit
their daughters to make these matches
were denounced in round terms today by
the author, Booth Harrington.
'I am ashamed of my fellow Ameri-
cans" said Mr.. Harrington. "I am dis
gusted with the idiocy that possesses a
certain number of them when they find
themselves abroad. 1 speak of that class
with more money than good sepse-that
makes hysterical attempts to misally its
daughters to the morally strabismic and
financially decrepit titular excresences of
the old world.
Respectable, God-fearing, plain Amer
leans, whose grandfathers fought tooth
and nail for the abolition of monarchical
forms an fads, may be found prostrating
themselves before shallow-pated holder
of an indifferently well-polfshed coronet.
''The fate of the innocent pure-minded
American girl intrusted to the keeping Of
some of the male harpies one finds In the
capitals of Europe is enough to shock the
hardened senses of even an American
king of finanace.
'I do not wish to be placed in the
position of making a wholesale denuncia-
tiop of European forms and usages, nor
of asserting that all the bearers of titles
are unworthy; nor yet that all inter-
national marriages are mesalliances, for
that is far from my thought.
but do say, unequivocally, that the
majority of American fathers and
mothers of a certain class-those whose
familiarity with social affairs is compare
lively of recent origin-are almost certain
to be deceived by the class af adveptu-
rers that frequent the best hotels In the
most fashionable resorts, and are to be
found on terms of apparent equality with
some of the best people.
There is a large number OF titled In
diyiduals who are compelled by the force
of circumstances to live by their wits
and who receive contributions from
more fortunate relatives. Further, there
are any number of personages whose
family history Is to be found In Burke,
and the Almanac De Gotha, and who are
vet absolutely impossible from any moral
standpoint whose family connections
alone save them from disgrace, and whose
sole aim and ambition in life Is to secure
enough to live upon.
.'There Is gossip in every court in
Europe concerning members of the aris-
tocracy, which is perfectly well known
to those who are on the inside, but which
It is almost impossible for the outsider
to get an inkling of.
IT speak of these things as / find them,
not as 1 would wish to find them. II the
truth is brought home to one American
family, something will have been accom-
plished."

MYSTERY OF, EARTHQUAKES

The careful study of the phenomena Of
earthquakes which modern science has
been making in the last few years leaves
the whole subject as great mystery as
ever. 1t is certain that the extent of
seismic disturbance need not in any de-
gree correspond to it's violence at the
surface, where the earthquake Is CEN
tered. It is apparent mat the shock or
tremor often reaches parts Of the earth
thousands of miles from any district
where 1t works serious havoc. But the
ultimate cause of earthquakes is still ur-
known. 1t is not determined whether
they are always of the same origin or
due to wholly dissimiliar forces, which is
more probable There has been nothing
in the recent study of such commissions
of nature to Justify any attempt to fore
tell their coming or limit their scope.
If anything, the tendency of modern
research is to widen the possible earth
quake area. 1t seems rash to assert posi-
lively that they can never take place In
some parts of the globe which were
formerly counted permanently immune.
There is no evidence which warrants the
hope that the earthquake danger Is les
sening, taking the worm as whole. AS
great disturbances are possible now as at
any time since history began. Long ago
It came to be the common belief or stu
dents of natural phenomena that there
was more or less connection between
EARTHQUAKES and volcanoe- and that the
ory is strengthened by the latest distur-
Dances of seismic rature.-Cleveland

CHICAGO. Oct. 26.-Trading in the wheat
pit was not of large volume. The uncertainty
regarding financial conditions had tendency
to restrain buying and selling alike
While the market at times was quite ner-
vous the undertone was one of considerable
frmness The principal Strengthening influence
was a firmer tone in the European grain mar
kets, due to the reports of too much rain in
Argentina Throughout the day shorts were
the chief buyers. There was some liquidation
by cash houses but offerings were at no time
excessive. The market closed strong. De-

Wet weather and the frmness of wheat in

ness. however. was not large. The close was
strong. December opened A@%c higher at

Oats were dull but the market was firm be-
cause of the strength of wheat and corn De-
mand for cash oats was slack and this had o
depressing effect options. December opened

vanced to 51hc. The close was at 51hc.
