A STEP IN ADVANCE

The local Y. VI. C.. A. has taken
decided step in advance in INSTALL
Ing billiard and pool tables. To be
sure the association Is a little tardy
in making the move. All assocla-
tions In cities within radius OF a
half hundred miles made the move
some years ago and Marion Is only
following in their footsteps, but 1t ii
better to do 1t late than not to do
it at all. There will likely be some
opposition to installing these amuse-
ments but that Is only to be expected.
But when the real question is con-
sidered there can only be one answer
Each parent before condemning the
association for the move should first
decide whether he would prefer having
his boy play pool or billiards at the
Young Mems Christian Association,
or in some saloon where he is given
d check good Tor i've cents at the
bar with each game.
Pool and billiards are both nice
games. They are games for gentle
men to play and it is indeed shame
that the saloon has been allowed 20
steal them. 1t is time that they
were rescued from the evil influ-
ences which surround them and one
Of the very best ways of accomplish
ing this is TO place tables in such
institutions as TO the Y. NJ. G. A.
where men and boys can play for a
minimum fee and with wholesome

For the past few years the 'un-
written law" has formed the
basis OF many defences for murder.
This "unwritten law" is supposed TO
grant immunity to the man who
shoots down another for having
wronged a woman. In some parts OF
Europe, and even in some sections OF
this country wronging woman used
TO mean challenge and duel, and
that custom was always decried as a
relic OF barbarism. But now we allow
the defender of the woman TO coward
| ly shoot the alleged wrong doer and
then set the slayer free. According
to the old custom, man was given a
chance for his life, but as 1t is today
he is shot unawares. Some men
call enforcing the "unwritten law
a step in advance in civilization
when in reality 1t is more barbarous
than the old custom of dueling

wife and children---if there be any
children in the world unfortunate
enough to have such father-will
find him more and more Of a bore
every day.
If a man carries his business in
his hat when he goes to the club, his
friends will soon steer clear of him.
He will find himself lunching alone
with no companions other than his
Ipapers and memoranda. To say the
least such companions by no means
laid Digestion Business is a poor
Ipartner for mans leisure hours.
You will see this workaday
time man in the theatre scratching
business memoranda on the back OF
his program, or figuring up his bad
accounts on the table cloth in pub
lie restaurant. He will be dragged
off to the country by his family, who
fully determine he shall have two
weeks vacation. He no more gets
off the train than he seeks long
distance telephone station and calls
Iup the office. He spends the evening
writing letters to his employees and
telling them thousand-and-one
things to do which they would have
brains enough to do anyway. The
next day he sends couple of tele-
grams and calls up the office again.
The third day afraid that the business
by this time has gone to smash, he
takes the first train to the city.
There is no rest for such a man
Just so long as he carries his office
in his hat he will keep his hat on
all the time and cares Of his business
will press heavily on his mind. Some
one ought to search him body and
soul when he leaves his office every
night and snatch from him every de-
tail of bushes worry.

WILL WE'D
The PRINCE
Close Friend of Nine. Anna
Gould Says She is De-
termined.

New York, March % Mime. Anna
Gould, who lost the title of countess
Iby divorcing Count Boni de Castel-
lane, will shortly become prin-
cess by marrying the cousin of her
former husband, Prince Helie dc
ISagan.
That the little American heiress
had finally and definitely decided on
this step was learned Tuesday from
a close friend of Mime. Gould. There
lonly remains to be settled the time
and place OF marriage and the details
'of the marriage settlement.
Nine. Gould hopes to win the con-
sent of her brothers and sister, but
that is matter of secondary consid-
Grafton. Her love for the dashing
Frenchman who followed her to the
United tates to continue his ardent
wooing, now stands before anything
else.
The discovery that the Prince de
Sagan had slipped into this country
by way of Halifax and Montreal ne
cessitatcd a sudden change in their
plans. 1t was learned Tuesday that
Nine. Anna Gould has virtually de-
livered an ultimatum to the family.
She would like to marry with their
consent and has not yet given up
hope for winning it. The point that
she has settled Is that she will be-
come the bride of the Prince de Sag
an.

Cincinnati, Ohio, March 25.-ln-

Clifford Heckert, manager of the deli
catassen department of the PEBBLES
grocery, is alleged to have bought a
$4,000 house and invested in an auto
mobile although his salary was only
SIG week He Is alleged to have
taken cash receipts in small amounts
to the aggregate of at Least $4,000,
having reported other sales but re-
tanning for himself the money from
cash sales during the past three
years.
The indictment was made public to-
day when Heckert was required 20
give bail. He strenuously denies the
allegation in all respects, claiming
that he had received the money from
his mother, although testimony is al
legged to have been given before the
grand jury that his mother took in
washing and did cleaning for living.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
Voting for Second Choice.


There seems to be a diversity of
opinion among the voters in various
parts of the state in regard tt the
section of the primary law relating
to second choice votes.
Some seem to think that they are
required to vote for a seconl choice
candidate for each and every office
where there is more than four can
didates, but this is not the case.
This section of the law applies only
to congressional and state offices.
We admit that we rave ourselves
misconstrued this section of the law,
thinking that it referred only to
governor ani congressman.
The law is very plain, however,
when carefully read, and it is almost
impossible to miscOnstrue it. For
the benefit of the voters we publish
below section IS in full:
I'm all cases where there are four
or more candidates of any political
party for one state or congressional
position, every elector voting at a
primary election held under the
terms of this act shall be required
to designate one first choice and one
second choice for each such position.
No voter shall vote for the same per-
son for first choice AMI second choice,
and no voter shall, where the are
four or more candidates for such
nomination, vote for one person only,
either as first or second choice, and
no ballot so voted for one person
only, for either first or second choice,
or for the same person for both first
and second choice, shall be cOnsid-
cred a complete ballot, but any bal
lot under said conditions, failing to
show both first and second choice Of
different persons shall not be consid-
cred or counted for that office"
Voters should therefore bear in
mind that this section refers only to
congressional and state offices, and If
there is but three candidates for any
of these Offices you are required to
vote for only one.-Big Bend En-
pire.
