MRS. HART MKEE
AND HUSBAND EACH
GRANTED DIVORCE
French Court Finds American
Couple Both Contributed to
Domestic Unhappiness.
M'KEE MUST PAY $500
A MONTH FOR CHILD
Reading of Wife's Love Letters
Called Violation of "Ele=
mentary Decency."

PARIS. May 1.-THE court today
granted the Hart Mckee divorces. find
ing that both Mr.. and Mrs. Mckee had
contributed to the unhappiness of their
household. Mrs. Mckee is given the
custody of their child, with the pro-
vision that Mr.. Mckee be allowed to
have the child one month yearly, as
well as being permitted to see it twice
a week. if living in the same city or
town.
The court also found thai Mr.. Nc
KEGS charges that Colonel Baxter and
Mrs. Mckee. his daughter, had inspired
libelous articles against him in the
American newspapers, were not proved,
and dismissed the case. Mr.. Mckee
was ordered to contribute 1000 francs
monthly for the support of his child.
The divorce suit was brought by Mrs.
A. Hart Mckee, formerly Mrs. Hugh
Tevis.
The court found the. husband guilty
of violence and of having committed
grave wrongs towards his wife. He
had aggravated these wrongs by bring
ing charges against his wife which he
could not prove, as we'll as by having
read in court his wife's love letters,
which elementary decency' should
have prevented him from making
public.
The court found that the wife, on
her side, unwarrantedly attacked her
husband by making charges in connec-
ton with the disappearance of her
Jewels and other property, charges
which were entirely disproved.

Mr.. Grace was a native Of our town and had
lived within its borders all of Ills life; when
but twenty-five years Of age he was elected
clerk of the town; and his faithful perform
ance Of the duties attached to that office led
the citizens to reflect him for eight consecu-

chosen as a member Of the Sinking Fund Com

n century this sterling citizen was a trusted
and honored official.
In addition to his public offices. he was also
chosen as one Of the directors and a member
of the Executive Of the West HUI

speeted by the officers of that institution for
his attention to the affairs Of the company.
During his whole public career he was dis

ties; year after year his accounts were audited
and found to be correct in every respect; he
handled hundreds Of thousands Of dollars. OF

NMBLE BOY JUMPS
FROM BARTENDER,
AMAZING CROWD
Escapes Injury, and Policeman,
Too, While Women Vent
Their Fright.

There was some excitement in Broad
near New street. when the fender of
a northbound a scooped up a 12-year-
old boy.
Screams of women drew a crowd. but
did not unnerve the boy. who managed
to slide off the fender before the car
was brought to a standstill.
Special Policeman Oliver w. Titus
tried to capture the boy. but the lad
ran for dear life through Military Park
and disappeared down Centre street.
He was off the fender and out of sight
so quickly that a number of spectators
yesterday afternoon could not believe
that the boy was not under the car.

'FEEfsLfAR CRIMINAL CASES.

The Columbia State says they do
curious things down in Georgia. and in
proof Of it's assertion it tells about a
young man who nor long ago was
convicted Of man slaughter and on ap-
plication by his attorney was turned
loose " ith the understanding that in a
week 'sttflne he report at the peniten

the time was out he was on his way
to Atlanta to report to the penitentiary
authorities to begin his sentence.
We venture the prediction that he
will not have to serve out his SIX
years and that he will live down his
disgrace and will in time become a
respected and valuable citizen in the
community in which he makes his fu-
ture& home.
We k10w of a somewhat similar
case whith once occurred in this state
in which the superior court judge af-
ter sentsncing a defendant to jail for
several months on conviction for a
~InurderouS assault, turned him loose
for a couple Of months in order that
he might gather his crop. on the assur-
ance of has attorneys that at the end

SOUND DEMOCRACY.

Hon. Roger "A Prior, a native Of
Virginia, an ex-Confederate general,
and now on the, supreme court bench
ia New York city, gives the New
York World his idea of democratic
principles as follows:
-Isl answ er to your inquiry / say.
The democratic party should recur to
it's time-hsnored p2~inciples-namely,
the mainLainence of the reserved
rigITs of the states: a tariff for reVe-
nue. with incidental protection; a con-
struction OF the constitution which
to it's expressed and necessarily implied
powers and confine Ehe several de-
partrbents to the deLnition of their
pubic administration; a pronunciation
of "coutrol over dependencies when
they show a reasonable capacity for
elf-government. and a return to the
fathers practice of eschewing entang-
ling alliances with foreign nations.
As to the policy Of the psrty, my con-
vfction is that since the south furnishes
fits principles and e>sctozai votes, a
southern man snould be nominated
for the presidency. There are plenty
worthy the honor. Such q candidate,
I arm sure. from forty years ohserva-
ton of factfonal fights in the northern
states wou:d receive in them at least
as united and Zealsus support as any
nominee they might present. If we

AS TO DEMOCRATIC CONVENTIONS

Not fong ago announcement was
made by the powers that be in the
democratic party of the state that no
political county conventions would be
held until after the prohibition e'ec-
tion on May 10th. Therefore it mus
have been quite surprise to them
when the news came that the excel
I've committee of Craven, right down
in Senator Simmons bailiwick, had is
sued a call for the county convention
to be held on April 18TH
We do not know enough about in
side affairs to understand the why
and the wherefores of the holding o
that convention at such an unusua ly
early date or of the urgent desire that
no county convention should be held
until after the prohibition election.
except as to the latter it is said to be
