swallows air until it swels up into utter invulnerability Ii one of these things should come to Prescott, it could raise S20,000 in twenty minutes to start another paper.-Preseott Courier.
 Doesn't the Courier know that a good fearless newspaper, such as Is the Courier, has no business in ex- istence ;and that there are ready al- ways men to tear down such a newspaper, if possible? It makes no difference how much good it does the town and the tributary region. It Is a nuisance to be sup pressed, and men will lavish money in hopeless effort to do so. Any hobo lawyer, like French, or cheeky printer, like Ted Healy, can get men to put up money to start him in the newspaper business, when were the same man ask to be backed into the grocery business, the saloon business, or the meat business, in either of which there would be a better show for success, they would laugh at him for his cheek and as- surance. And then, when the fel- low who is started that way makes a failure, there are others like the Pellegrins, who will keep the sickly bantling alive, with money earned in other lines of business. Not be- cause the community needs their newspaper, bat because they hope to harm the good and useful one.

MANS INCONSISTENCY.

Mrs. Sims, of Desmoines, Iowa, who won the national champion ship at whist in 1906, has given up playing, and is acquiring now international fame by featuring against card playing, the subject of her lecture being: "Why 1 gave up Whist" Her lecture Is described as very interesting, and in the course of an evening she tells some very unpalatable truths, all aimed at the Social game of cards as played in parlors and drawing rooms. The lady holds that if gambling must be done 1t should be conducted in a regularly li- censed gambling house which will be freqliented by none but gamblers or those with a natural proclivity for gaming. It is in the club room, asserts the lecturer, or in the social game in polite society that the youth learns to play and develops a taste for gambling. In a licensed gambling house a minor is not allowed, but his company is urged Tn gambling games in homes. No thing, declares the lady, has so de- generating an effect upon q com munity as does gambling house
 that Is not gambling house, but cloaks its character under the guise of social entertainment in polite society. But then that kind or ar gument, although very logical, has never yet accomplished results, and

CRIME AND DIVORCE.

Thomas Speed Mosbg, an emin- ent attorney in Missouri who has made profound study of the divorce problem, has published re- gently dissertation upon the sub- ject, in which he traces the increase of crime thoughout the United States to the laxity of the divorce laws and the ease and facility with which the marriage tie may be sundered in nearly all the states, Mr. Speeds researches into crimin- Ological statistics has developed the fact that 55I of the inmates of reform schools are children of par ents who are divorced, or are with out fathers. As the reform school fails to reform so frequently, and IS d school for furth her crime in so many instances, Mir. Mosby as- sumes that had not the unfortunate children been deprived of the refn- ing influences of home life, by the separation of their parents, their fate might have been different en- tirely; and the aim and object of his article is to find some remedy for the divorce evil. That remedy he thinks he has found in propo sition that the law should require all contemplating marriage to de clare their intention so to do some. months before marriage.
 The theory upon which is based the proposition of Mr. Mosby Is that too frequently marriage is nasty and i'll considered, rushed into unadvisedly, to be as quickly regretted afterward, and that the effect of the declaration of inten- tion will be to make those contem- plating the important relation to consider it more seriously, to weigh we'll the probabilities of congenial companionship in one another, and lead to dissolution of the engage ment before harm is done, rather than let matters run along to m almost inevitable dissolution of the marriage tie few years later.

l ne dlIncuity Wltn all sucn theories is that they are eoncIu- sions drawn from a single premise, when the evil considered springs from a variety of causes, no one of which, perhaps, may be control ling, but all reaching inevitably to the final unfortunate and deplor- able result. The divorce evil Is of that very nature. Not only do nasty marriages contribute to its existence, but there are numerous other causes. The lack of disci- pline and self control, false and meretricious tastes, incorrect views of life and its responsibilities upon the part of one or both of the high contracting parties, extravaganza, incompatibility of temperature as well as Of temperament, the tend- ency to arrogant independen of spirit, and q thousand other char acteristicS all tend to make the marriage tie irksome and cause a desire for it's dissolution upon the part of one or both parties A long engagement with public notice will not prevent operation of any or ali of these influences after marriage; l; for the simple reason that such characteristics are sedulously con- cealed by either party before. In one week of matrinony the newly wed learn more of the characters and dispositions of each other than they could learn in an engagement of Il year, with the banns published in every church in the parish, and q declaration of intention posted upon every street corner.
 The divorce evil is but the ex- ternal evidence of many deep seat ed and strongly rooted causes in the social fabric. No panacea of universal application will afford remedy, for the causes are loo deep seated and remote 10 be reached so easily. The evil Is but the mani festation of numerous and effective conditions, which have been of gradual growth To correct the evil the conditions must be changed. To check or suppress the evil railed at without altering the conditions would be simply an in, vitation to other and greater evils than that Of divorce, and possibly q much greater prevalence of crime.

COFFIN WOOD MINES.
The Chinaman Digs For Wood Priced
For Burial Caskets


There exists no object which the av-
erage Chinaman exhibits more regard
for than the narrow box which'is,des-
tined to contain all that is mortal .of
him. He is never happy until it Is ,1n
his possession 1t occupies conspicu-
Gus position In his house, and the.rich-
er he is the more he expends on its ac-
QUESTION and adornment.
The collins most esteemed by the &C.
lestials are manufactured from a pc
culiar resinous wood, possessing quite
extraordinary preservative properties
and found only in one small district in
Tonqun, buried In the earth, no living
specimens of the tree now being in ex-

The natives search for 1t quite as
eagerly as elsewhere gold and precious
stones are run after. and, indeed, the
intents and purposes mines Of wood.
the origin Of which has never been sat
isfactorily explained.
Local legends have it that In a far
distant past vast numbers OF these
trees existed In the dense forests with
which the whole region was covered
and that as result of some tremen-
dous cataclysm they were uprooted and
precipltated into the rayines. Wheth-
er this account is true or not, the
buried trees are today source of quite
considerable wealth to the lucky per-
son who finds them For coffin made
Of this special wood a Chinaman does
not consider f5o or ECO at all too high
