much quetcr than last week. Some be-
lated liquidation from outside sources met
the opening rise in prices. but the later

Waived Rights for Present.

In view of the earnest efforts of the
authorities of George Washington Uni
versity to secure the enactment of the
Morrill, bill this year in the interests of
that institution, the board Of trustees, by
formal action, at it's semi-annual meet
ing, decided to waive for the present any
rights that Howard University, represent
ing the cOlored people. might have in
the proposed bill. 1t was thought by the
friends of George Washington that this
might further the interests of that in
stitution.
LAS the Morrill, bill requires where
there are two races to be benefited that
division be made pro rata, according to
the population, Howard University, stand
ing for the education of the colored
people of this District and of the nation
would, according to the provisions OF the
original bill, receive nearly one-third OF
the amount available
THE board, however, realizing the great
need Of an agricultural school of college
grade for the training of the teachers and
leaders in agriculture in the common
schools, academies and farmers institutes
of the south, confidently looks forward to
provision being made at some time in
Congress to meet this urgent need.
Training Schools Needed.
while there is an agricultural col
lese in every state OF the Union available
for white people, yet there is not single
agricultural school of college grade in
all the southern states open to colored
people. There are number of industrial
schools supported OIL the small provisions
available from the Morrill, fund, but these
are all of preparatory grade. The best
schools giving agricultural instruction are
al Hampton and TuSkeSee.
'It is true also that through the fore
sight of the trustees, especially William
V. Cox, president of the Second National
Bank. several lots with buildings thereon
on the north side of Howard place have
been acquired, including the large ole
mansion OF Gen. Howard. This invest
ment has been made from the endowmen,
funds, and on such basis that it now
nets 3 per cent more than was formerly
received from other investment of this
fund. In order also to protect the uni
versity, lot of land on the entrance &c
the university, south side of Howard
place, has been secured on most favorable
terms.

of their newspaper friends. Just why
the public service commission should

understand. To the ordinary mind it
would seem as though there were no

STATE BASEBALL LEAGUE
Magnates in Annual Session at syria

Syracuse, Nov. 5.-The annual
meeting of the New York State Base
ball league was called 10 order at the
Hotel Yates yesterday behind closed
doors and as many important matters
we're in the slate it was not expected
the magnates would finish their ses-
sion for several hours.
The question of reducing the sal
airy limit from $4,000 to $4,000 is OPP
posed by Scranton. Wilkes-Barre
and Syracuse The other clubs say
that without Sunday ball they cannot
afford the $4,000 limit and undoubted-
" there will be much discussion on
the probability of having baseball In
this state seven days a week.
Elmiras protest over the fines i'm
posed for failing to play scheduled
Sunday games will also come up but
1t is expected to be quickly settled.
There was a report that Troy and
Binghamton might be dropped and Pa
terson, n. j., and Trenton admitted
but Troy is represented today and
Binghamton seemed too good town
to the other magnites TO allow 1t to
fall out. Consequently no change in
the circuit is regarded probable.

Strange Case Brought Before New
York Supreme Court

Strange Case Brought Before New
York Supreme Court
New York. Nov. 5.-Whose wife is
Mrs. Frances NJ. Hall?
Can one woman be the legal wife
of three men at the same time?
These are the propositions of fact
and of law that Justice Greenbaum
will be called upon to decide soon in
the Supreme court
Mrs. Frances NJ. Hall recently de-
feated the suit of George X. Hall a
mining expert. OF No 610 City Island
avenue, City Island to have their mar
riage annulled. Now she Is suing her
motherin-law, Mrs Emily L. Hall for
100000 for the alleged alienation of
Georges affections by his mother.
| Mrs. Frances Hall says that until
December l9, 1908 she and George
lived together and she was loved and
cherished by him. But, then, she
says, his mother enticed Hall away
from her.
Mrs. Emily Hall filed an answer a
few days ago in which she said that
at the time of Frances marriage to
Hall the young woman was the law
full wife of Howell. Jones, II. ID. Per
kins and II. H. Dunham," and there
fore her marriage to Hall was void
land his affections could not be alien
ated from her.
The elder Mrs. Hall set forth that
the woman who now demands so
much money was married to Howell
bones at White River City, Colo, on
April 8, 1906 and divorced him in the
same state in September, 1905. Mrs
Emily Hall asserts this divorce was
not legal in the state of New York,
as the courts of Colorado had not OBJ
tanned jurisdiction over Jones and
could not therefore divorce him Be
sides this says the mother-in-law, the
younger Mrs. Hall could not legally
obtain a divorce in Colorado because
she was not resident of that state.
Then the mother-in-law further a.
leges, Mrs Frances Hall Is a second
, time barred from legal wifehood with
Hall, because on April s, 1903 seven
years after she married Jones and
five years before she divorced him,
she was married to II. d. Perkins,
sometimes known as Jack al Mem
I phis. Tenn. Ii is averred she lived
with Perkins there, in Texas and in
Colorado as his wife and this being
; The case could not enter a marriage
!, contract with Hall.
Next the elder Mrs Hall goes on,
the younger woman was married TO
II. II. Durham some time prior to the
, month Of May, 1907, in Memphis,
Tenn, and this contract was also in
full force when the marriage with
Hal was contracted.
In reply Mrs. Frances Hall ignored
the allegations concerning the mar
riages, with Jones and Perkins, but
demurred to the answer in so far as
it referred to Durham. Justice Green
baum sustained the demurrer to the
answers concerning the marriage to
Durham, because no wedding date
was shown.
The case will not be tried on the
strength Of the elder Mrs. Halls ans
wer in reference to the two other
men. Justice Greenbaum will decide
whether Jones. Perkins or Hall is
really the husband.

Successful Farming

An axiom of agricultural success
might be stated as follows: That
farmer will be most successful, and
will receive a greater return on his
investment, who applies his efforts
to raising those commodities for the
production of which the soil of his
farm and the climatic conditions in
which he labors are best adapted.
This Is about as nearly self-evldent
truth as 1t is possible to express. But
IN spite-of its truthfulness. it is con-
stantly and widely neglected, in this
state as well as elsewhere, and 1t is
this neglect that constitutes the one
great reason why so many farmers
are dissatisfied with the fruits Of their
labor.
An example of wrongly applied en-
ieavor is evident in Vermont today.
In certain parts of the state soil and
climate are almost in perfect combi-
nation for the raising of apples but
here is none who would say that the
apple industry is developed to any
extent near TO what II might we'll be.
That the growing of this fruit is a
profitable business has been clearly
demonstrated by such states as Ore
yon, Washington and California,
which yearly make huge shipments
o the Eastern and European mar
lets.
Maine this week sent to English
merchants $4,000 barrels of apples.
TO bring these TO the water front for
ransfer to steamer, 1850 freight
cars were required, and this was but
one shipment taken out on one vessel
It might almost seem that the rail-
roads OF Vermont would be but seiz-
ing opportunity by the forelock II
they joined in the campaign OF educa-
ton which alone can be the means OF
awakening the Vermont farmer to the
fact that perhaps he may find his
salvation in raising the fruit that pop
ular tell has II caused the original
downfall of man. Whatever the ap
pie may have done to us in our earl
Ter days, there is chance TO make
II square the account today.
