Secret Divorce for the Rich.

Nothing revolutionary is contemplated
by the bill introduced at Albany by AS
semblyman Toombs to put an end to
secret divorce for the rich. 1t does not
interfere with the discretionary power of
judges to exclude the public from scan
dalous hearings; it does prohibit secrecy
as to the records.
Probably nobody ever neard of "seal-
ing" the testimony and findings in di-
vorce case involving people Of small
means. 1t is only the socially influential
and the financially powerful who enjoy
that privilege Mr.. Toomb's bill ought
to pass as matter OF course. In the ad-
ministration Of justice there should be no
favored classes, orders or estates.--Ae7O

She breads Roosevelt's Name.

Nine. Triano, whose father was Daniel
O'Da,, at one time Vice-President of the
Standard Oil Trust, is an American
whose invitations are eagerly sought
after in London Society. Her husband
is Santiago Perez Trano, the Colom-
ban Minister, and one of the trials and
difficulties of Nine Triano's life is to
prevent thoughtless mpatriots who
gather in her house from mentioning the
name Of Theodore Roosevelt in the
presence Of her husband, since Signor
Triano shares in full measure the pref
udice entertained by his fellow.country-
men against the American President
who recognized the independence o
Panama. Nine. Triano is intensely
musical, and her afternoon mus
ical receptions have been features of the
season now drawing to close. .--Neu

A Brilliant Judge.

Steady Baker was at one time mayor
Of Folkestone, England. Once boy
was brought before him for stealing goose
berries, and Steady, aware Of the import
ance Of the case, turned over the pages
of the alphabetically arranged Burns
Justice" for precedent. Failing to find
one, he turned to the culprit "My lad, :"
said he, "it's lucky for you that you were
not brought here for stealing goose IN
stead of for stealing gooseberries. There
is statute against stealing geese, but
can't find ANYTHING about gooseberries in
all Burn, so let the prisoner be dis
charged, for suppose it is no offense. +"

should be no jar, no striving for place,
no insistence on prerogatives, or divis-
ion of interests. The husband and wife
are each the compliment of the other.
And it is just as much his duty to be
cheerful as it is hers to be patient; his
right to bring JOY into t door, as it is
hers to sweep and garnish the pleasant
interior A family where the daily walk
of the father makes life festival, is filled
with something like heavenly benedic-
ton.

Keep your skeletons shut up in your
closets is very good rule for everybody
to obey. A sorrow or misfortune may
bring to you the sympathy, not only Of
your friends, but Of Indifferent acquaint-
ances, but there are limits beyond which
this will not be carried. People soon
tire of grief in which they are not per-
sonally concerned. The sunshine is so
much more agreeable than the shadow
that it will be sought for, and they ex-
pect that you will help to make it as
soon as what they assume to be a reas-
enable time has passed by. If you do
not, and you are constantly opening the
doors of your skeleton closet and weep
ing over what it contains. you need not
be surprised that you are Stunned by
those upon whose affection YOU have
most counted. You must smile, although
your heart be well nigh broken. and it is
right that you should do so. The world
albeit it is not bad world, is still full
of care and of burdens for each human
being to carry for himself as to make
the carrying of those of others for pro-
longed period unbearabe.

God bless the cheerful person, man,
woman, or child, old or young, illiterate
or educated, handsome or homely. Over
ard above every social trait stands
cheerfulness. What the sun is to nature,
what God is to the stricken heart, are
cheerful persons, in their silent mission,
frightening up society around them with
the happiness beaming from their faces.
Listen to me, you pretty girl! Do you
know that plain, sensible girl is much
more in demand than frivolous beauty?
Do you know that well appointed SEN
sible man, does not often give his heart
or his home into the keeping of
woman whose only attraction is her per-
sonal loveiness? And that in case he
does anything so rash, when he repents
at his leisure he generally tells her so.

There really should be something
done to prevent people of the name of
Bill taking all the offices. There are at
least eight Bills after the New York
governorship. In the Democratic camp
are William Sulzer and William j.
Gaynor. to say nothing Of William ].
Corners and William K. Hearst. who
are said to be supporting Sulzer.
Among the Republicans it is even
worse. as William II. Hotchkiss. Will
liam A. Prendergast, William Loeb.
Jr.. William s. Bennett. William Il.
Wilcox and Clark Williams are all be-
ing mentioned as Republican candi-
dates. 1t is almost certain that Bill
Taft will indorse one Of these. Indeed.
he has already spoken a good word for
Bill Loeb. Talk about trusts!

The Smallest Atom.

Professor Z. a. Milliken of the Uni
versity of Chicago has discovered after
four years of study that for which
scientists for ages have been looking.
Professor Milliken has discovered the
ion Of electricity.
The ion of electricity is the smallest.
the most minute particle or atom i'll
the mysterious electrical charge of
which the scientists of the world know
SO little. While they have been able
to harness his powerful mysterious
force, they have admitted freely that
they know very little about it d. what
it is or whence it comes.
AS a result Of the discovery OF
Professor Milliken the world today is
much nearer than ever before to the
actual discovery Of electricity. The
unknown has been reduced to the
atom, aud the atom has been measur-
ed and observed not once. but many
times. in the curse of the experiments.
I'VE have not as vet found the mys-
ferrous force that is called electricity.
but we have learned how to gauge it,"
says Professor Milliken.

spikes which pass through the anchor
plate are long enough to be driven to Il
considerable depth i'll the ground and
serve as additional means for prevent
ing the anchor plate from sliding out
of position.
In use Il trench is dug at the point
where the post is to be erected. The
trench is just wide enough to receive
the anchor plate e, and the blade G Of
the plate is driven into the undisturk
ed ground ut the end of the trench,
thus affording a firm anchorage. There
after the post is erected on the ancho"
plate and the braces D and e are bolt
ed fast. For corner posts the anchor
ing device is used in duplicate. The
blades G of the anchor plate are driven
into the ground at the side. where
there will be a lifting strain imposed
by the tension of the fence wires. The
inventor of this anchoring device for
fcnceposts is Julius Laux of Flatonia.

A patent has recently been granted
on a novel method Of supporting a
fencepost so that it will withstand en-

SundiaI For

The class graduated from Columbia
college in 1866 gave the university on
commencement day Il granite sundial.
said to be the only II of it's kind in
this country. The plans for the dial
and a small working model have been
made by Harold Jacoby. professor of
astronomy aud Il member of the class.
The dial consists of Il granite sphere
five feet in diameter. mounted on Il
circular granite plinth some ten feet
in diameter.
On the surface of the plinth are
marks which designate the actual time
of day at every season of the year.
The dial, according to DR.. Jacoby, will
probably be the best timekeeper in
New York as long rs the sun shines.
but it will be subject to the failings of
all other sundials when there is no sun.
