Superseded

The personal bondsman is fast
becoming obsolete; the risk to pri-
vate fortune is too great.
The corporate bond is just as rap.
idly supplanting the old form; and,
in time. men viii marvel that they
were ever ca1ed upon to incur the
danger of personal suretyship.
In point Of safety, convenience and
prorriety, there can be no COM
parison between the two; the one
is just as weak and perilous a. the
other is strong and safe.
The time is near when it will be
thought as reasonable to borrow
the key Of a friends safe as to
borrow his name for surety pur.
poses.

WOMAN'S DEVOTION

Brings Him Food apd Cloth
ing TO Jail-Bigamy Is
Charged.

A remarkable case Of alleged bigamy
was uncovered by the police OF the
Second precinct yesterday when Officers
Sweeney and Lawless arrested John
Ware, colored. on the charge of dis
orderly conduct Ware. at the time of
the arrest was in the house Of his
brother-in-law, at 1925 Twelfth street
northwest. When the officers appeared
upon the scene and inquired the names
of the various persons present at the
time Of the ARRAY. there was one dark
woman named Sadie Vought who stated
that she was the wife Of the defendant.
Soon after his incarceration another
woman, Della Jones, appeared before
the desk sergeant with some food and
clothes for her husband"
The two women and the man were
then brought into the same room and
questioned closely.
Il appears that Ware married the
Jones woman some time in 1903 and
lived with her for a number Of years.
On leaving her, in 1906. for a short time
he saw the Vought woman whom. 1t is
charged. he married soon afterWard.
One Of the remarkable features of the
alleged crime is that the defendant is
said 10 have lived with both of his
wives alternately, often visiting both in
the same day without being discovered.
In the Police Court this morning he
waived his preliminary hearing and was
held on a $500 bond for the action OF
the grand jury.

a RoYAL ECoNoMTsT.

A royal economist is the German En-
peror, who has never himself been
guilty Of luxurious living and who hates
to see It in others. The Kaiser recently
dined with the officers Of a smart lancer
regiment at Potsdam, who thought that
they could give their guest no greater
pleasure than BY a lavish display OF ex-
travagant delicacies. His majesty said
nothing at the time. but he evidently
did q great deal or thinking. Within
a few days the minister OF war con-
veyed the imperial wishes that extrava-
gances OF this kind must stop, and that
a bill OF fare consisting OF soup, fish
vegetables, a joint. butter, and cheese
was good enough for any one. even an
army officer. There must be only one
kind OF wine. with a single glass of
champagne, and no liquors or other
after-dinner heverages.-Th Argonaut.
