tain instances notification OF the
marriage
hint Of the wild rush into matri.
mony that has been going on may be
found in the statement made by Rev.
DR. lioughton. the rector OF the Lit
tie Church Around the Corner" He
says that no ono but clergyman
can have an idea how many people
seek to rush blln,hy and witho,u the
least consideration into marriage. In
the month OF June alone he turned
away 50 couples because he thought
they ought not to be married. either
on their extreme youth or the I'M.
conventional way they sought TO en-.
ter the holy state. In July he turned
away so couples. In most cases
these were rush calls--young people
who were seized with notion and
gave the matter no consideration. The
five days delay imposed by the new
law Will put an end to rush marriages
In New York ut least. Other states
ought to do something TO remedy the
evils of lax marriage laws. Too
many safeguards cannot be thrown
around the ceremony and the condi-
lions under which they are performed.

IAN OFFICER AND A GENTLE.

a first lieutenant in the cavalry of
the regular service has been found
guilty of conduct not for the good OF
the army and military discipline. for
having written TO the mother OF de
sertcr that II gave him great pleasure
to inform you that your son, who is
about the most worthless scoundrci
that ever knew, is n dcscrtcr from
the u. $. Army" He added that he
hoped II would be n Source of con.
dolencc" to her TO learn that he
hoped TO sec her son behind the bars
for Mt least two years"
Tho court martial found that on the
charge OF conduct unbccoming an of.
ficcr and gentleman the lieutenant
was not guilty. General Grant In M.
providing the sentence of reprl.
mand ana two months confinement to
station, says that this Is entirely in
adequate. Tho General says that tho
cruelty Of the licutcnant's expressed
hope passes beyond the pale of the
most ordinary deccncy." Yet the court
acduits the lieutenant OF conduct un.
becoming to nm officer and gentle
man, That might do In the army but
1t Ia absolutely certain that there
Is no civil standard which would per.
NIT man to be considered n gentle
man who would take pleasure not
to speak of expressing that pleasure,

So many couples get married Just

thorzed by law TO speak the words

To such an extent has this thing gone

to plunge into marriage with the least

all those silly features tina
tend to belittle the sacredness of tn,

provides. among other things
that application for marriage licens
must he made In person by the can
didates, and that the applicants mus
be of legal age or have the wrltte
consent of the parents o
both. The most important featur
is the provision that five day
must elapse between the Issuance q
the license and the marriage. Thi
allows time for consideration an
calm elaboration, and will put an en-
