The Philadelphia Ledger uses the
Plat divorce case as a text upon
which to preach a sermon on the in
ternational marriage. The case in
question is not one to be handled
without gloves, nor, it may be said,
without vomiting, and perhaps the
Ledger does we'll to summarize the
proceedings in terms that are brief
but not .unpointed The Ledger says
AT the age of seventy-five he is
defendant in suit which, even as 1t
ended, is plainly disgraceful. The
: senator presents a painful spectacle
of hesitation, of evasion, of tottering
senility, with glimmerings of a sly
and crafty imbecility. His nurse at
tends him and hands him about like
a baby, and on the brink of the grave
he stands disgrace to manhood and
to the American public"
For the purpose of comparison the
Ledger cites the case of the Due de
Chaulnes, who married one of Anne
rica's rich young women. Now the
rule de mortuis is a good and kindly
one, but we need not, upon that ac-
count, keep silent as to the Due de
Chaulnes. He was young and not
without his full share of the follies
of his years, but there was every
reason to believe that his future
would have made amends for a not
well-spent past. At least his father
in-law, one of the hardest headed
business men of America. had con-
fidence in him. Now when the mar
riage was celebrated we were treated

Tales Worth Telling :

Mrs. Pinchpenny stepped aboard the

the conductor, who was very busy, for
got that he had received the nickel, and
in little while again held out his
hand for the fare.

Mr. PinchpennyA,

Mr.. Pinchpenny hesitated a moment
and then said with the air of an in

Don't you remember a man that got

.desplsed and rejected by their own
people. 1t was enough that the duke
was a Frenchman and that he had
fallen somewhat short of those RI
gid and puritanic virtues, that whole
souled devotion to public interests
and private holinesses that invaria-
bly, distinguish our own gilded youth.
France had produced the Due de
Chaulnes and therefore France was
decadent, effete, and dying. And now
comes the moral as drawn by the
Ledger:
'1n our own case the situation is
exactly reversed. France never elect
ed De Chaulnes to office, but we free
Americans, in the great, rich, intel
ligent State of New York, under the

ton of power and responsibility T. G.
Plat Which nation suffers by the
comparison?"
The population of New York is
over seven millions or nearly one
tenth of the population of the Unit
ed States. To foreign eyes, to
French eyes, New York City and New
York State stand as representative of
the American nation, Probably three
fourths of our foreign visitors never
see anything else of America. And
when these seven millions of people
are called upon to elect a statesman
to occupy the highest position of leg
islative power and influence within
their gift, when they are invited to
choose their wisest and their best in
the full light of day and with COM
plete knowledge of antecedents and

tests were close, the first match, be-
tween the Stars and the Bulletins,
resulting In u score of to Z, and the
other, between the Paradise and the
Advertisers. ending with the score
at to 8. AS can be seen from the
scores, the games were the best play
ed which have been put up on any
one Sunday by the newspapermen.
The victory of the Bulletins was
the direct result of the retiring of
CONFESS from the box for the Stars
in the ninth inning, when they put
in brewster and the nine took the
toboggan, three men racing across
the pan before the career down-hill
could be checked. The third run was
all that was needed to do It.
The second game was nicely play
ed and free from features. The heav-
emily crowd got their winning run in

These results leave the Stars at
the very end of the procession, and
put the Paradise in the van.
