JUDGE DEFENDS DIVORCE.

After all the illumination against divorce by priests, purists, theorists and those who have never had any experience in the navigation of matri- monial seas, peaceful, stormy and otherwise, the few remarks of Henry B. Brown, retired justice of the su- preme court of the United States, are worth needing.
 No man Is entitled to more respect ful hearing than Judge Brown. For yea:s be was leading. conservative lawyer in the elninently conservative and moral city of Detroit Later he was for years United States judge in that city. All the time he was a most eminently respectable member of Detroit's best social set, generous, liberal, upright and the highest type of American man.
 Commenting on Cardinal Gibbons recent objections to divorce, Judge Brown says:
 The head of the Roman Catholic church in America, a man for whom l have the most profound respect, has painted divorce as a monster license by the laws of Christian states to break hearts, to wreck homes and to ruin souls This is certainly grue- some picture.
 No system of laws adopted by an idealist 100 years ago and taught by & following of pious and conscientious enthusiasts can maintain its authority forever, however exalted its origin, if 1t run counter to the traditions, GUS toms and general moral standing of the people.
 "A proper regard for the interests of the state as well as the preserva' ton of domestic happiness would see to require that when the whole ooli- gation of the matrimonial pact had been defeated by the habitual, persist ent and uncontrollable conduct of either party and that relation which should represent the scene of human happiness made to stand for all that is most repugnant to our desires and anticipations, severance of the ties should be permitted. The story of domestic unhappiness is only too fa- miliar r"-Tacoma Tribune.

THE CHANGING SEASONS.

The summers gone a-scooting wher
 ever summers go; the fall comes caly hooting. and soon we'll have the snow; the nights are growing chilly
 the flies are looking silly. the peeler with his billy gets after Richard Roe. We shiver in the shadow, so eager Is the air; the horses in the meadow arc growing winter hair; the leaves are trampled under, and bards begin to wonder how in the name of thunder they'll raise the bill of fare. We dread the wintry weather. that soon will be on file; the snow upon the heather. the ice upon the stile; ex- perience has taught us to dread the blasts that spot us, the snowballs hard that swat us-such things forbid e smile. Yet there are compensa- tons upon life's solemn shore; and summers tribulations for divers months are OCT: these mercies shoul
 reQulte us; the flies no longer fight us; mosquitoes cease to bite us, and chiggers chig no more.-Walt Mason.

Good Kitchen Company.

One housewife in this town doesn't know anything about the servant prob lem, at least so much of 1t as has to do with the keeping of maid of all work. the quality of such service not being counted. This is because her servants always become devoted to her because of her brightness and mag unanimous treatment of them. Having only the one servant of doubtful skill and accomplishments, this housewife has to spend a good deal of time in her own kitchen. The other day Julia expressed her appreciation this way:

 AER0NAUTs,
Accidents Indicate to Military Men That AeropIane VIII Dispiaee Dlrigible Balloon In
 Times of War.

Paris, Sept. 2s.-rhe disaster to tha military dirigible balloon Republioue, in which four French officers lost their lives coming on the heels of the death of Ie Fehvre and Captain Fer ber, and the loss of the Patrie. has plunged France into mourning; but public opinion as reflected by the nomments of the press, braveiy sup ports the opinion of the aviators thst no human sacrifice can now disccur- age the conquest of the air
 The Temps announces national subscription to aid military aerostat- ics. in memory of the dead officers. Subsequent investigation fully con- firms the fact that the accident was due to the snapping of the rapidly re- Yolving propeller blade which tora through the gas bag. General Eoques reports that there was no trace of fire about the silk. thus disposing of the hypothesis of an explosion
 General Brun, minister of war. in an interview. expresses the opinion that dirigible balloons for war pur- poses will soon be supplanted by per- fected aeroplanes. He says dirikibIss can never be brought to point where they will become first class enc zines of war.
 They will remain valuable" he eon- tinues. "for intermediary service. but must give way to the aeropianesl AS scouts the dirigibles are too vuiner- able An aeroplane offers small target and if pierced. can still fly. A the pilot Is killed 1t Is only another soldier dead on the field of battle
 We will still have dirigible bai- looms. but since the tests at Betheny I believe firmly in the future of aero planes from a military standpoint"

VALUABLE STOCK IN ASHES

Greenville, Sept. 2s-- Special Fire of unknown origin broke out at g o'clock tonight in the Jewelry store of J. H. Shreve. When the flames were finally subdued. several hours later the store was ashes, and no part of the valuable stock had been saved.
 The loss will amount to about s75.- o0o.. as the firm had just received new stock of goods during the last week As the greater part consisted of watches and articles of gold and sIi- yer. very little can be saved from the ruins. The insurande. 1t is believed. will not exceed s10,ooo.
 The fire was discovered about 9 o'clock. The churches were quickly emptied of worshippers. who ran to the engine house across the street from the burning building. Thr fire engines were soon manned, and a stubborn light was begun to check the spread of the flames to adjoining buildings.
 The store is on Main Street. one block west of the court house, and about the center of the block. Adjoin- Ing 1t are the properties or E. H. Smith and of the J. H. Dunklin Hardware Company. The shreve store was a one- story structure. while the other build ings are two stories high. The burned building was the property of c. c. Stewart.s
 Theories as to the origin of the fire are varied. The building was wired for electric lights. and the flames may have started from this cause. MT. Shreve had just received large ship ment of new goods and this was piled almost ceiling high in the rear of the store where the flames were discov- cred These facts lend some weight to the supposition. in some quarters to- night, that the double crime of incen- diarism and robbery may have been committed, although there is no clue to the author of such deed. It is be- iieved that it will be hard to determine this point because of the excitement at the time, and due~to the fact that the owners are unable to determine whe- ther any of the jeweiry was taken prior to the fire.

GRIEVE FOR VICTIMS
SURVIVORS OF GULF HURRICANE
 IN SORROW.
Louisiana Finds Time to weep-Death List Mounts Into Hundreds and Loss, of Property Is
 Great.

New Orleans, La., Sept. 26.-One week ago tonight the white winged sea gulls flying wildly inland from the gulf gave warning with their screams of the approach of the much dreaded West Indian hurricane that was to closely follow. Along the en- tire coast were countless happy fisher folk and sailor men. the thousands of trim craft and comfortable homes bearing token of the advent of a pros- porous season.
 Today vast flocks of vultures how cred over the devastated lowlands of Southern Louisiana, strewn with in numerable carcasses of animals and men. The scene was one of terror, desolation and death.
 Stunned by the damage that was wrought by winds and waves. the work of relief did not give the people time to mourn. All energies were bent for the remainder ofNthe week in the task of rescuing those still in peril and succoring those who had suffered in the storm. Almost a hundred human bodies have been burned or buried in the marshes where they were drown ed Today Louisiana found time to weep. Closely refraining from all forms of mirth. the people of the State, irrespective of creed. adhered closely to the following injunction rom ArcnDlSnOp 6leHk.
 "The loss of human lives and the widespread detruction of property in this archdiocese through the recent hurricane have given rise to so much sorrow and distress that any social function would at the present time be entirely out of keeping with the sad surroundings. With tears stream ing down their faces, the stricken pas tors have told me of the utter desti- tution of their people and of the com plete destruction of the houses of God But trust and am quite con fident that those who have been so sorely tried will put it in my power to give prompt and substantial aid to the crushed sufferers at this time of awful desolation."
 So completely cut off were many remote sections along the coast that it was not for several days after the hurricane that the appalling loss of life began to dawn upon those engag- ed in the colossal work of relief made necessary by the storm. Comparative small property damage in the city of New Orleans, with several deaths due to live wires and falling chimneys. was all the damage that was recorded for some time
 Those sections Of the coast which re-established communication with the city first reported no loss of life and rumors of many persons being drowned at Grand Isle proved to be without grounds. Then came further -''."~-s of great loss of life in Terre

ogden. Utah, Sept. 26--President Taft spoke here today. Then he resumed his journey. Tomorrow morning he will arrive in Butte. Mont, and will en- counter the second strike situation of his trip. At Omaha last Monday the President ran into a street car strike but all efforts to run cars were called of during the time he was there.
 This time Mir. Taft will be In the midst of a strike called by the Western Federation of Miners, of which Charles H. Mover, whose indictment in con- nection with the Steunenburg murder in Idaho was quashed at the acquittal of W. D. Haywood and George A. Pet tibone. Is still the president.
 The strike has arisen through differ ences in the miners organfzation. The engineers in the mines having split away from the organization and organ ized their own union and the Fedora ton has forbidden it's members to work with the engineers. The smeiters have not yet closed down.
 Upon his arrival here at D. m.. the President was taken for an eighteen mile automobile ride through the og- den Canyon--one of the show trips of the West. Afterwards he addressed big throng in Lester Park, in which he dwelt upon the scenic beauties and wonderful possessions of the West.
