MEN ARE NEVER SAFE.
May Be Compelled to Pay Alimony II
Ever Divorced.

Chicago, May 11.-Divorced men have
shock from Judge Farlin Q.
Ban that has caused not a few of them
to seek the advice of lawyers.
Although divorced so years, is the de-
cision of the jurist, and although no
mention of alimony was made in the
decree, no divorced man is safe from
the payment of alimony SO long as his
former wife lives and fails to marry.
Judge Ball announced that, while a
decree of divorce ended the other mar
ital obligations, the duty of a husband
to support his wife and her right to
demand and receive such support was
not thereby ended.
In other words, a wife who obtained
divorce % years ago, or even so, can
bob up Unexpectedly and, having dis
covered that her former spouse has be-
come wealthy or merely well fixed, may
go into court and successfully demand
her rights
That is, of course, provided she has
not married in the meantime or did
not accept a stipulated alimony when
she was divorced.
Even though the divorced husband
has married again, become the father
of ten children, and may be even a
grandfather, the former wife's rights
to aIimony are not thereby hampered
or annulled in any way. Several lead
ing attorneys, when questioned about
the decision, declared it was good law
and had been since the days of Black
or

WRIGHTS RETURN.
Aeronauts Come Home to Complete
Government Contract.

New York, May 11.-Wilbur
Wright and Orville Wright, the
aeronauts were passengers on board
the steamer Kron Prinzessin Cecilie,
which arrived here today. Consider
able concern as to the accident which
befell Lieutenant Calderara of the
Italian navy in falling from the
Wright aeroplane at Rome on Thurs
day last, was manifested by the
Wright Brothers on reaching the
quarantine station.
After satisfying themselves as to
the extent of the lieutenant's injuries,
the brothers said they would go as
soon as possible to their home in
DAYTON. O., where the aeroplanes in
tended for the use of the government
service will be completed. From
Dayton they said they intended to
proceed to Washington to test the
aeroplanes under the direction of
government representatives.
The Wright brothers united in say
ing they had no intention of making
secret experiments. Following the
completion of their work in Washing
ton they announced they expected to
return to Europe to continue their
contracts already made with private
individuals.
A large party of friends boarded
the Kron PrinzeSsin Cecilie at
quarantine, greeted the aeronauts and
accompanied them to the landing IN
HObOken.

LETTER FROM TAFT.
Endorsing Work of the Playground
Association of America.

Pfttsburg, May 1.-THE following
letter of PresidentTaft was read at the
meeting of the Playground Association
of America in session here:
The White House. Washington,
April 80. 1909.
Ny Dear Sir: 1 greatly regret that
] can not be with you at your thlrd
annual congress at Pittsburg from May
10 to IA of this year, but I write to
express my most sincere sympathy IN
the work which your association is
doing.
I do not know anything which will
contribute more to the strength and
morality of that generation of boys
and girls, compelled to remain part of
urban populations in this country,
than the institution in their cities of
Fairgrounds where their hours of
leisure can be occupied by rational and
healthful exercise. The advantage is
twofold:
In the first place, idleness and con-
finement in a narrow space in the
city, in houses and cellars and I'M
ventilated dark rooms, is certain to
suggest and bring about pernicious
occupation and create bad habits
Gambling, drinking, and other forms
of vice, are promoted in such re-
stricted mode of life.
In the second place an opportunity
for hard, earnest and joyous play i'm
proves the health. develops the
nnuSCleS, LIle ana teaches
the moral lessons of attention, self
restraint, courage and patient effort.
I think every city is under the
strongest obligation to it's people to
furnish the children, from the time
thew begin to walk until they reach
manhood, places within the city walls
large enough and laid out in proper
form for the playing of all sorts of
games which are known to our boys
and girls and are liked by them.
civ, IxlVa mi
vention may be a success and that the
work which you have begun may go
on until no city in this country is
without suitable Fairgrounds for the
children of those who but for such
city assistance in this regard would
be without them. Sincerely yours,

Mr.. Hoyt told the society, of which he
was formerly president, when we
were overtaken by a binding snow
storm. The snow piled high in drifts
on the sand and the wind was biting
cold. So far as I could learn, it was
the first time that snow had ever been
seen in the Sahara desert"

REDUCTIONS OF RATES.
Sweeping Cuts Announced in Trans
continental Tariffs.

Los Angeles, Cal. May 11.-Copies of
the new transcontinentaI tariff, to be-
come effective June l, do not bear out
assertions made in eastern dispatches
that the railroads would put into effect
sweeping reductions of rates. Accord
ing to F. p Gregson, traffic manager
of the Associated Jobbers, examination
of the new tariff shows only a few re-
auctions and they are all on goods
manufactured in the east. No relief is
given on the great tonnage of Califor-
MIA products, Mr.. Gregson says. This
tariff supersedes the one that went into
effect January 1, which increased rates
on nearly all California products east
bound as well on nearly all vest
hound traffic

HOME BUILDING IS BAD.
1t Interferes Seriously With Work on
Panama Canal

Washington, May 11.-Home build
ing in the canal zone is becoming de-
trimental to the effectiveness of the
labor force engaged in canal con-
struction, according to reports from
officials in charge of the work there.
Laborers living in the regular bar
racks and eating at the messes must
work each day or be excused on ac-
count of illness.
On the other hand, it is stated. the
laborer who has his nut in the bush
can work a few days a week and
earn enough to exist for the bal
ance of the week. AS a result of the
home-making instinct it has been
necessary to import more laborers
from the West Indies.
