When we returned to the hotel found

l Gaspard. from Kilbcurne, in which he
announced that he had taken passage on

CUNNER'S LICENSE GIVEN
TO GROOM BY MISTAKE
Error of ToWson Officials En-
barrasses Mr.. Boyd, Who
Intended Marriage.

BALTIMORE, september 12.-When
clerk asks the color OF ones eyes ana
hands ont a gunner's license instead of
marriage license, as happened to William
Boyd, seventy-seven years DID, OF Steven
son, Baltimore county. at Towson Satur-
day, one is liable to feel like shooting out
all the electric lights on the way back
But Mr. Boyd did nothing of the kind.
IL was all a mistake. He did not want
10 shoot electric lights. or squirrels. or
anything else. He wanted to get married,
and he went back to Towson and told the
officials all about II. They were sorry
They mildly contended that Mr.. Boyd
NAV have known that the color Of
mans hair Is never taken when he wants
10 get married. but Mr.. Boyd, although
a veteran OF three wars. did not know
that positively
Boyd Goes for License.

being duly accepted as partner OF her
Joys and sorrows. Mr.. Boyd went to Tow
son TO get the license II was Saturday.
and he did not wish TO wait until Mon
day. Women are SO changeable.
Arriving at the Towson courthouse he
saw a line of men fling into the license
department. He probably imagined that
there were other happy people In the
world beside himself. and he no doubt
looked over the serried row and felt at
home among so many bridegrooms. IL
has been observed before that there Is
sort OF freemasonry OF matrimonial sus-
poets or candidates which makes waiting
in line an undesirable occupation. No
one speaks but all look conscious
Despite his age. Mr.. Boyd attracted no
| attention In the line. ana ne propaoiy
noted that no one gaZed with surprise at
him as he waited his turn. All too happy
| themselves. he probably thought. AZ last
the moment arrived when he faced the
clerk-Mr William p. Cole. jr. He was
| a nice clerk, and he did not raise his eye
brows and appear surprised wnen MT.
/ Boyd asked for license.
Odd Questions Asked.
Your name, please" ne asked, and Mr.
Boyd gave his full name. This was en-
tered on a forrnai-looking document.
| What is the color of your hair" was
asked.
Mr.. BOYD thought this was a rather
strange question, but In these days when
so many young men run away from their
/ wives IL might be a good scheme to know
the color of their hair so that they could
be Identified and brought back. He gave
the color and waited. Your height"
Mr.. Boyd probably thought this was
| another OF those modern questions. II
was never like that In the old days when
the parson tied the knot and the people
roundabout raised a barn. But he gave
ton, residence and some other personal
/ Information.

Odessa's Bad Reputation.

Odessa has the reputation Of being
fast city, one of the most immoral COM
munities in Europe. and the young Rus
SLAMS are given to gambling and dissipa-
ton OF all kinds.
At night the streets are brilliantly light
ed and are crowded with promenaders or
both sexes. There are many cafes on the
sidewalks. in the interior courts OF the
business section and in the parks and
squares. All night the air is filled with
music and laughter and pleasure-seekers
turn night into day.
One il inclined to wonder when these
crowds OF men he sees In the cafes ana
theaters attend to their business. But
when the shops. offices and banks open In
the morning at 10 O'Clock there seems 10
be no lack of customers and clerks, ana
everybody is on the rush.
The Exchange, a handsome building OF
oriental architecture, is the center OF ac-
tivity. The trading takes place IN
splendid hall on lines similar to those OF
the Board Of Trade of Chicago. The re-
mainder Of the building is devoted TO sam
Pile rooms. committee rooms, reading
rooms and other purposes.
AS grain is the principal staple OF south
ern Russia and Odessa is the chief mar
ket all business movements center around
the board OF trade Business is very dull
crops; fourteen of the largest hour mills
I'm the city have been closed down for
want OF wheat to grind, and that has
thrown large number OF people out OF
employment. as well as reducing the vol
ume Of business. But this years crop IS
a record breaker and prosperity is expect
ed soon again.

The clerk had not asked q single cues

200, 900 Hebrews in Odessa.

There are more than 100000 Hebrews in
Odessa-exceeding one-third of the entire
population-and, as everywhere else, they
control the banking. the manufacturing.
the export trade. the milling. the whole
sale and retail mercantile establishments
and practically everything of industrial
and commercial enterprise. And, natur-
ally. they are hated by the Russians and
enyied for their success and prosperity.
The prejudice against the Hebrew pop
ulation, elsewhere as well as here, is due
to economic rather than religious reasons
simply because they are getting ricner
and more prosperous, while the Russians
are losing ground in all the professions
and occupations. They have wasted their
capital in bad investments and dissipa-
tons and extravaganza and are iorced 10
mortgage their property to the hebrews
To keep up appearances.
In the meantime Hebrews have been Sc
curing control of all the profitable enter
prises and lines OF business In ODESSA.
Their sons show the same earnestness
and zeal in the university that they show
in the counting room. Therefore they
make the best doctors and lawyers and
engineers, and their services are In de-
mand, while the Russian members OF the
professions are idly waiting for business.
A Russian will employ a Hebrew law
yer or doctor or engineer in preference
10 one of his own race, not because ne
loves the Hebrew or desires to encourage
him, hut simply because he needs him
and recognizes his superiority. his
shrewdness and his success.
Russians All Improvident.
! The same is true among the working
classes The Russian laborer spends his
wages for vodka. The Hebrew puts his
i'm the savings bank. The Russian Ia
borer never saves anything. The Hebrew
is economical and abstemious: his family
lives on bread and vegetables. and by
keeping good habits IL grows strong,
while the Russian grows weak.
While the proud young Russian is ca
rousing in the cafe chantants and losing
his money in gambling bells the Hebrew
young man is busy with his books.
This difference In habits produces the
results which exasperate the Russian and
drive him TO the persecution Of his rivals
He considers IL an insult to himself and
his race whenever he hears of q brilliant
achievement or instance OF prosperity
among the Hebrews, and the spirit OF
envy and jealousy so aroused is the cause
of persecution.
The newspapers today announce that
the car of all the Russias has been gra-
ciously pleased to permit the Hebrews In
certain districts to visit health resorts
for medical treatment during the season
of 1910 upon the presentation OF GER
tificates from local medical commissions
that such treatment Is required.
This Is considered a tremendous conces-
sion and has excited great Indignation
among the Russians who are in the habit
OF spending the summer at the pleasure
and health resorts.
