band and prospective bridegroom had
in the meantime run up against the
same difficulty that has confronted sew
eral divorced persons who have sought
to get married in London this spring,
which was that the registrar before
consenting to perform the ceremony
insisted upon seeing a copy of the di-
vorce decree.
The man had no copy and to send to
New York for one, even by cable, would
mean ten days before it could get here.
At this crisis what should the former
wife do but send to a member of the
family who sympathized with the man
her own copy of the decree that 1t
might be shown to the bridegroom-to-
be.
He wanted nothing better. Aiming
himself with the document he hurried
at once to the registrars office, tri-
umphantly showed the paper and was

NURSE GAVE WRONG
BABIES TO MOTHER

AMIENS, France, May 1.-two wo-
men gave birth to two children on the
same day in hospital at Amiens One
of the children was boy and the
other girl. After eight days the
mothers were dismissed, but on reach
ing their homes they were both sur
prised. The one who had given birth
to al girl found that on leaving the
hospital she had been given a boy.
Both women returned in great distress
of mind to the hospital, where the
mistake was explained. Before leav-
ing the establishment a nurse had
taken the two babies to another room
to be vaccinated and in giving them
back to the mothers had mixed them
up.

ROMANCE
Hastens Day of Wedding-Divorced
Woman, Though Sorry She Was

Marriage Possible
Cable to The Herald.

Special Cable to The Herald.
LONDON, May 1.-THE story of an
American wedding that took place here
the other day contains material enough
for a good French farce, though from
one standpoint it is not lacking in the
tragic element.
About three years ago an American
woman who had been living apart from
her husband for several years, making
her home on this side, decided that she
must have divorce. The husband was
more than willing apparently for he
readily furnished the cause which In
New York resulted in his wife getting
a speedy decree.
Still the woman was not pleased, for
the case had not been contested, and
instead of accepting one of the many
suitors which 1t is said presented them
selves she began to doubt whether she
had wanted a divorce after all.
Ex-Husband Weds Again
When few weeks ago the report
reached her that her husband had come
over here and become engaged to a
young American girl she was sure there
had been a mistake. Reading over the
copy of DEGREES she found her former
husband was prohibited from marrying
again in the state of New York, and
she went to consult solicitor to find
out whether there was not some way
of forbidding the banns.
Now it happened that the former hus-
