Will Barrie Divorce Prove
His Play Real?

campaign meets the young peeress
Maggie's greatest pride is in the
success of her young husband.
He-untutored and nothing In
the worlds eyes until Maggie
makes him what he is-falls madly
in love with the peeress.
Then comes Maggie's awaken
ing.
She sees she has palled on hel
younger husband, and the thought
hurts her. Her eyes fill with tears
her lips are pressed tightly to-
gether. But she doesn't quail. She
tells her husband she will give him
up-for it is for HIS good.
She has found out what every
woman knows = that men love
beauty and youth in woman even
II 1t means breaking of the home
ties.
j. M. Barrie, whose mind cre-
ated the story of this play, has
sued Mrs. Barrie for a divorce.
The court moves in the suit show
that he planned his case with
great elaboration.
Three days after the suit was
filed news came from the Savage
club, where stage folk are well
coined here, that Barrie would
marry Pauline Chase. Certain 1t
is his wife soon will be a divorce
and Barrie will be free to wed
whom he pleases.
Mrs. Barrie, in real life, has
seen her husband rise from OBJ
security.
Maggie Shand, in Barrie's play,
saw her husband rise from OBJ
security.
Mrs. Barrie, in real life, will
give up her husband.
Maggie Shand, in Barrie's play,
was ready to give up HER hus-
band.
Barrie, the stories run, loves
Pauline Chase, whose brilliancy in
his plays helped him in his sue
cess.
John Shand, in Barrie's play,
loved a peerless, whose brilIiancy
in society helped him in his sue
cess.
What was there in Barrie's
mind that pointed the lines of his
play as prophesies of his life's
crisis?
What Every Woman Knows
was written three years ago, when
little Pauline Chase's star was
just beginning to shine here.
Has Mrs. Barrie, who now is
in seclusion under her husbands
charges, read the play? And has
she, too, drawn the strange truth
from it's fiction?
All London is talking of this
coincidence. And if
Barrie, divorced, should wed Pau
line Chase, the world will see
what every woman knows.

BURGLARS MAKE

1t was easy meat for burglars
at the Columbia market, 1927
South Tacoma avenue, between IL
O'Clock Saturday night and 10
O'Clock Sunday morning. But
there was only one kind they
were loking for. The big, thick
steaks, and the chops and outlets
looked good, but the real grand
re" meat for which they were
laundering was in the safe.
Wherefore, sledgehammer
instead of bone-saw, became the
implement of warfare, with which
they broke the combination
Ramming the tumblers with q
steel bar, they then opened the
doors, took out only $5O-be-
cause there was no more-shut
the doris, and closed the safe.
They then left the market by a
rear door to avoid the crowd, and
never notified Wirges & Co., the
proprietors.

1t should be remembered, how
ever, by prospective settlers or pur-

corporations is not irrigation by
the United States government.
The private corporation charges
a perpetual water rent; the gov

The private corporation may or
may not build good engineering
works; the government builds the
best. The private corporation

BIG TOE WORTH

OLYMPIA, Oct. 12.-The state
supreme court says that the King
county superior court and. Jury
which said a woman's big toe was
worth $4,000 did not know what 1t
was talking about. The supreme
court is better posted on big toes
and 1t says they should be rated
at only $4,000. This Is $1,000
less than the lower court and
jury priced them.
The schedule was fixed by the
court on the case of Mrs. Filing
Nelson, who sued Henry C. Brom-
ley for allowing a plank to fall
from a new building to mash off
her big toe as she was walking
along the street in Seattle.

Longstreet for the Senate.

There is another proposed candi.
date for Z. S. Senate, who, should
he enter the race, will have to be
reckoned with. We refer to Judge
James Longstreet, of Grenada.
Judge Longstreet is a statesman
not a politician, and is perhaps
one of the most able Jurists of the
nation, and withal an every day
citizen of the commonwealth
Here is the estimate that his home
paper The Grenada Sentinel puts
on him, which is the best criterion
to go by:
In our Judgment Judge james
Carter LOngstreet is peculiarly en-
dowed with those qualities of heart
and brain that would again bring
our beloved commonwealth to the
front in the councils of the nation.

lie is man comprehensive in
thought, broad in his conceptions
and posses love for his fellowman
that makes him know his wants and
share his sorrows. He is an able
lawyer and an orator excelled by
few. There is pathos and a
beauty about his public utterances
that sway audiences and carry con-
vlctlon deep and abiding. He is
as persuasive as Walthall, as force
ful as George, as brainy as Lamar,
as sagacious as Henry Clay and as.
resourceful as John G. Calhoun
lie is aggressive without being Of
fenslve, he is discreet without miss
ing opportunities. He is as gentle
as woman, kind and obliging and
is generous toward his fellowman.
He has a farming interest near
Grenada to which he has devoted
much of his time, and which the
writer feels sure has given him an
experience that makes him recog-
nize the difficulties that confront
the farmer and the equity OF the
demands now being made by the
farming class through their great
and noble organization, the Fam
