is Mrs. Russell Sage. for whom Mt
Carnegie expressed a warm friendship.
Mrs Sage is said to have inquired ire
uuently as to when Mr.. Carnegie and
his family would arrive, and expressed
much pleasure at the prospect or MS
visit. 1t was rumored at the hotel
that Mrs. Sage would accompany the
Carnegie party to the Annandale Golf
club today, but Mrs. Sage could not
be seen to make a statement.
Completes Peace Pamphlet
Mr.. Carnegie announced yesterday
that as president of the Peace society
of New York he had just had pub
lished for free distribution in the
United States a 50,000-copy edition of
a pamphlet written by himself, in
which he pleads for world peace.
In our age" said Mr.. Carnegie,
there is no more reason for permit
ting war between civilized nations
than for relaxing the law within ma
tlons which compels men to submit
their personal disputes to peaceful
courts and never dream that by so
doing they will be made less heroic.
"A peace league of the foremost ma
tions should put an end to the possi-
bility of war among themselves and
compel other nations to submit their
disputes to peaceful tribunals. Since
war decides not which is wrong, but
only which is stronger, it is difficult to
understand how a truly heroic or con-
scientious man can ever favor it un-
til, after proffering peaceful arbitra-
tion, his country is attacked.
SHOULD our country have a dispute
with another the demand should come
from an irresistible number of the
most enlightened and heroic of our
people that our government should, in
it's right hand, carry gentle peace and
offer its adversary arbitration.
when war ceases the sense of hu-
man brotherhood will be strengthened
and 'heroism' will no longer mean to
kill, but only to serve or save our fel
lows"

Denver Judge Tells Prisoner That a
Man Intoxicated Shows Ances-
tral ouaIities-Gets Promise
of Total Abstinence

DENVER, March 15.-"It is a well
known psychological fact that a man
under the influence of liquor either
shows his true characteristics or DOR
mant ancestral qualities appear during
that period. 1 choose to believe in the
latter l am going to turn you loose.
But 1 want you to promise that you
will never drink again."
With this injunction, District Judge
George w. Allen ordered George T.
Forbes. formerly a successful silk man
ufacturer of Paterson, N. j., dismissed
at the conclusion of his trial yesterday
on the charge of forgery and grand
larceny. Forbes admitted he became
intoxicated and while in that condition
met q man named Gyllings.
Gyllings had him arrested for steal
ing his money, clothing and a bank
check. The latter Forbes attempted to
cash after signing Gyllings' name. The
bank refused to cash it, and Forbes
made second visit to inquire why he
should be thus treated. Detectives ar
rested him.
Forbes made no attempt to deny his
guilt either to the pelice or to the
court, but declared he had no recollec-
tion of events after he became intoxi-
Gated. He asked to be sentenced, but
Judge Allen, who believes in the theory
of reversion to type, placed Forbes
under pledge not to drink again and
withheld sentence.

Girl Who E1oped from University Obtains
Decree and May Go
on Stage
on Stage

m HE final act OF a romance at the
University of California, in which
a pretty and popular coed eloped
in August OF 1907 with the son of F. II.
Engstrom, the millionaire contractor,
was heard In the divorce court before
Judge Houser yesterday afternoon,
when Ruth Engstrom, nee Ruth Au-
brey, was granted an interlocutory de-
cree of divorce from Paul Engstrom
and the restitution of her maiden name,
on grounds of his failure to provide for
her the necessities Of life.
The plaintiff wept gently on the
stand as she told the court that young
Engstrom had never provided her with
a home since the day of their marriage;
that she had not lived with him since
March, 1909 because she had lost all
faith in and respect for him.
1t Is understood that Mrs. Engstrom
has received an offer to go on the stage
for the Sullivan -Considine circuit, and
she is seriously considering taking up
the stage as a profession. AS a coed
at Berkeley, her acting in the college
plays showed talent, and her friends
believe she has a great career on the
stage.
on the stand yesterday the plaintiff
told of two other suits she had in
stituted against young Engstrom on
the ground of misconduct, but that she
had forgiven him and endeavored to
make the best of their married life.
He broke his promises repeatedly"
Los Angeles herald., 1910-03-16

she said tearfully "and again and
again l have found that he has been
getting drunk aid running around in
the company of fast women. Some
times for days at a time he would dis
appear either in Oakland, San Fran
cisco, San Jose and Los Angeles, and
when he came back ] could clearly see
his condition. He has broken his
promises so repeatedly that ! have lost
every atom of faith in his ever living
up to his VOWS"
The plaintiff declared that Engstrom
had lived with her in San Jose for five
months only after they first married;
that they led a peculiar fitting exist
ence from hotel to apartment house,
and vice versa. He never attempted to
provide anything like a home, she said,
but left her to seek assistance from her
own people most Of the time.
He left her TO herself so frequently,
she testified, that she resumed her
studies at Berkeley to fill in the time.
her mother paying her expenses. Her
husband was capable of earning S75 a
week, she said, working for his father,
who has contracting offices in all the
more important cities of the state.
Mrs. Mary Aubrey Of Los Angeles,
mother of the plaintiff. took the stand
and corroborated the testimony of her
daughter as to the precarious existence
she led with her husband, and how the
mother was compelled to give her
daughter money for her support and
clothing.

Although August is generally regarded as the midsummer month, midsummer may be said to begin with the 21st of July, or at least with the last week in July Characteristic midsummer sights and sounds have been in eyidencE for sev eral days, observe the Pougkeepsie Eagle. The golden glow is ip bloom, locusts sound their drowsy hum at mid day and tree toads begin to punctuate the night. Already the katydid has been heard making rather feeble be- ginning.

battlefield, is the one who falls earliest in the strife, while the weakened, in sipid pretender of virtuous deeds, crown ed with honors, and the deafening plaud- it's of the indiscriminating crowds raised tohighest niche in the temple of fame wrestled from worthier aud anobler son. ,-.
 The ways of the world are hard to de- fine. Virtue is thrust aside that vice may resign and dishonor strut in the garb of fame. Often mans worst foes are they of his own household for whom he has striven hardest; whose best wishes he has ever at heart
 It has been thus since the Man of Gallilee was denied and scorned, covered with stripes and humiliation and put to death. Shall the fate of the servant be less strenuous than that of his Mas ter? ...
 Honest reform has ever suffered at the hands of tSrrannical oppression, no mat ter in what guise it has come. Forces of evil seek ever to dominate and if they fail in one measure they are ex- pedient in devising another.
 Through it all the world watches the contest and, alas, to often upon postrate virtue implants the heel and upon the head of vice places the crown.
 It has been so since the world began; it will continue while life shall last, un- less some marvellous manifestation of providence, yet unforeseen, shall change the nature of man and implant within him more richly the grace divine.
