all. in spite of our great humidity" de- clared D. s Landis. the local weather observer. Friday. T used to be sta tioned out at PhoenN. Arizona, and you may be sure it got hot out there. And the records here, as well as there, have been broken thIs year I have just received a letter from a druggist at that place, who is an old friend of mine, and he tells me that a young fellow by the name of Harry Apple gate, who recently came over there from San Francisco, had the misfor- tune to have his amalgam tooth filings melted out of his mouth during the hot days of last week. l am glad l am stationed in Fort Worth"
 Now, Mir Landis is very jolly gen tleman and the bunch he handed the reporter about the melting of the anal gam Is all right. It is a joke on the face of it and can harm nobody. A good lie is always appreciated, and it is only the poor little sickly prevari- cation that honest, simple-minded people lacking a sense of hJfmOr take for that truth that does real damage.
 But when MT. LaniiG says the rec ords for heat out here have been broken this rear he must have spoken without looking up the records. Phoe nix has had sons pretty hot weather, as is usual in a well regulated city in this latitude. That hot weather Is what makes this the finest country in the world, along with lot more that is not so hot. But during the present summer there has yet been no temper ature that touched lat years record nor the records Of many other years. and during the hottest days as not as great as some Of the days wien the temperature was lower and the humid ity higher
 It is well that MT. Landis is glad he is in Fort Worth. It is always well for a man to be satisfied with his job. And if he had been quoted correctly, Phoe- nix would prefer that he stay in Fort Worth, or at least not get transferred back here SO long as he is in the weather business. Phoenix is proud of her climate, and all she wants is a careful and painstaking weather man ager such as she has now, for he re- ports things with mathematical accu- racy and predicts with fear and trem- bling as a conservative prognosticator has to do. And in the matter of heat he gives us Just Enoughsky.

CARDINAL GIBBONS
 TALKS ON DIVORCE

Baltimore, July 14--Cardinal Gibbons in an interview today replied to remarks Of former Supreme Court. Justice Henry B. Brown on the subject of divorce before the Maryland Bar association at Old Point Comfort last week. The cardinal said:
 Justice Brown has taken exception to my views on divorce and remarriage. He is reported to have referred to the founder of the Christian religion as an fdealist, whose sentiments while suitable to less favored times and circumstances, are not adapted to this enlightened age.
 ''The learned jurist will permit me to say that the teachings of Christ have been the basis of all Christian Legislation for nearly 2O0O years and continue to be the light and guide of hundreds of mil lions of souls. And there is no subject which he treats more fully and clearly than the question of marriage, the foun- dation stone of our family and social life.
 "In three of the gospels he proclaims the unity of marriage and permits separa- | ton of a married couple only in the case of adultery. I do not see why law which has been enforced and cordially ac- cepted in every age and country where Christianity dominates should be consid- cred obsolete or impracticable in the United States.
 "The multiplication of divorces," the cardinal continued, lis largely ascribed by some writers not to our divorce laws, but to the eager and reckless manner in which ministers of God officate at mar riage services. But are not these persons confounding cause for effect? Dfvorces are multiplied not by ministers who will lingly assist at ill-asserted marriages, but because loose legislation on matrimony renders 1t easy for married parties to annul the marriage bond.
 .If the civil laws of all our states were as strict as they are in South Carolina and in Canada the persons contemplating marriage would seriously and prayerfully reflect they would study each others dis- position and temperament before engaging in a contract which would bind them for life. And certainly the peace and good order In the family life in South Carolina and Canada can be favorably compared with the domestic institutions existing in those states where divorce can be easily obtained"

Slayer Of Illinois Banker Sends

FUNERAL SERVICES HELD
Wife of Slain Man Is Not Allowed To Attend Burial of Her Husbands Body and Is Still Con-
 fined in Jail.

Watseka, IL, July 14-A letter summon ing his still faithful wife to his side was sent from here today by pr. William L. Miller, slayer of J. H. Sayler, the Crescent City banker whose body was followed to the grave today by nearly the entire adult population of his home town.
 An Associated Press dispatch from Blairsville, Pa. quoting Mrs. Miller as having forgiven her husband and only awaiting his summons to fly to his aid, was received here today simultaneously with private message from Mrs Miller to Sheriff Heil1es of the same import. The message was turned over to the prisoner, the sheriff offering to telegraph reply.
 T will write" replied the physician. It was a long letter, slowly and carefully written, and for the first time since the tragedy which wrecked two homes there was a glow on the prisoners cheeks.
 It Is believed by those who have seen the prisoner since his receipt of Mrs. Milers telegram that the romance which began it's surreptitious course two years ago, ripened into open disregard of the conventions of society. put one prominent

citizen into his grave and another be- hind the bars, has ended. The doctors whole attitude-stray remarks dropped to intimate friends who called today, the new hopefulness in his eyes-all suggested this solution.
 Mrs. Sayler was not allowed to attend her husbands funeral, although she beg ged the sheriff for permission to do so She wept much of the day, but the sheriff was determined.
 T had one experience with a mob 12 years ago and don't care for another" explained that official.
 This action on the part of the sheriff was generally commended by persons who insist that Mrs. Sayler's presence at the obseauies would have been provocative of insults and perhaps violence.
 The principal address at the funeral was delivered by the Rev. Joseph Bell of this city. He dwelt on the sacredness of the home, of mans duty to defend it's honor and counseled that the law be allowed to take it's course.
 The funeral procession, coming from Crescent City through Watseka. passed Within d DlpNk bI NilS JhiA tAO widow sat Her narrow window afforded her just glimpse of the black hearse and the carriages as they moved slowly along Her face was drawn, her eyes red. She seemed to have aged since yesterday.
 Another detail of the domestic situa- ton in the Sayler family and of the day of the killing was learned today from Mrs Margaret Jenkins, proprietress of the Crescent City hotel. According to Mrs. Jenkins, MT. Sayler spent most of Sunday at her hotel.
 He told me that they-Dr. Miller, Mrs. Savior and her father and brother, were all at his home and he could not stand 1t. He asked me about rates by the month and said he feared he would have to come and live at my place. If he really attacked Dr. Miller, 1t certainly was not premeditated or he would not have been thinking of where he was 10 live.
 While he was in the parlor the party at his house passed In the buggy. Mrs. Savior saw him and made a grimace at him. He saw that 1 had seen 1t and said: Mrs. Jenkins, don't pay any at tention to that; consider the source
 The box in which MT. Sayler left pa- pers, the nature of which is not known, but which may have a bearing on the case was not opened today It was said that this would be done tomorrow.
