Unhappy Marriages.

The universal expectation
of married people is that
their married lives will always
be happy ones. Deluded
dreamers! They imagine
that they are different from
other people, and when they
enter the portal of matrimony,
love, peace and prosperity
will ever be their attendants.
Such ones had better by far
consider themselves the same
as others, but form iron re-
solutions that will keep them
from the dangerous coasts
upon which SO many have
been wrecked and ruined.
Unhappy marriages depend
upon many causes. Previous
to marriage, many try to APP
pear more intellectual, more
amiable. or more accOmmo-
dating than they really are.
Depend upon it, that love
brought into existence by a.
moonlight stroll strengthens

Washington, March Is. - Admiral

around the world.
All doubts as to the final destina-
ton of the big sixteen were cleared
yesterday when announcement was
made by Secretary of the Navy Met
calf that the fleet, after leaving San
Francisco, will continue to the Orient
and return by way of the Suez canal
to New York. 1t will be the greatest
naval undertaking in history.
Secretary Mctcalf announced the
future movements of the fleet after
the cabinet meeting yesterday. 1t will
leave San Francisco on July 6 "for
our Pacific possessions" as Mr.. Met
calf styled it. The vessels will first
touch at Hawaii, where they will coal.
After that they will go to Samoa, fol.
lowing this up by visit to Australia,
where they will stop at the cities Of
Melbourne and Sydney, the invitation
of the Australian government to visit
that country having been supplement-
ed by more cordial one from the

Leaving Australia the vessels are
to go to Manila and while in the Phil

necessary for coaling purposes. The
date of their return to the states is
dependent entirely upon the amount
of time required for target practice
in the Philippines. The visit of the
battleships to Puget sound will be
made some time between the conclu-
sion of the grand review in San Fran.
