Divorce to Margaret Ellington
Reno, New, Nov 10.-Margaret Hing
ton Frohman was granted an absolute
divorce from Daniel Frohman, the
New York theatrical man, today on
the ground OF non-support. The case
came up before Judge Pike and the
hearing consumed less than half an
hour, but one other witness besides
the plaintiff being heard. Miss Hing
ton tonight refused to discuss her
plans, but it is said she will leave
Reno within the next day or two, prob
ably for San Francisco. When the
actress first went to Reno statements
were issued by both herself and Mr..
Frohman in which they made it plain
that the only disagreement was that
the husband insisted on her seeking
theatrical career, while she longed
for domesticity. 'T want to darn my
husbands socks and raise IL children
In 10 years." said Miss Ellington in an
interview shortly afterward. Amons
friends OF both parties, it is generally
understood that Miss Ellington will
soon marry a San Francisco business
man.

Pair of Weapons.
The kangaroo seems poorly provid-
ed by nature with offensive weap-
ons. His powers of biting are not
formidable and his fore paws are so
weak as to seem almost rudimentary
members of little use. His hind legs
are muscular and strong. but are APP
parently OF use only to assist fight
from his enemies On these hind legs
is found. however, most formidable
weapon I'm the shape of long claw as
hard as steel and sharp as chisel-as
terrible to dogs us the scythe chariots
of the ancients were to their enemies.
When run down the kangaroo, plac-
ing a tree behind him to protect bis
rear, will seize in his fore paws such
indiscreet dogs ms rush up to him
and. holding them firmly, disembowl
them with sweep Of his sickle-llke
claws.
Even the hunters themselves thus
caught in the viselike grip of an "otd
man. kangaroo of the larger breeds
have sometimes suffered in like man
ner and have now and then taken their
own turn at being hunted as the en-
ragged animals turned upon them and
attacked their horses with blind fe-
rocity. st. James Gazette.
