END OF EASY JERSEY WEDDINGS

Jersey City, N. j., June Boone of
the most drastic marriage laws yet
adopted by any State will come into
effect in New Jersey tomorrow, with
the result that the hasty midnight
weddings of chorus girls, Divorces,
gilded youths and intoxicated million
aires who have been in the habit of
crossing over from New York to have
the knot tied, will become thing of
the past.
The new law requires that the mar
riage license be obtained in the place
where the bride-elect resides, unless
she be a nonresident of New Jersey
In the latter case the license must be
obtained in the home town of the
bridegroom-elect. If both are non-resi-
dents, the license must be obtained in
the place where the ceremony Is to
be performed. The law provides that
before a marriage license shall be is
sued, the person issuing it shall re-
quire one of the contracting parties
to subscribe to an oath or affirmation
attesting the truth of the facts respect
ing the legality of the proposed mar
riage, and the license shall be issued
only if it be made to appear that no
legal impediment exists. The appli-
cant must swear that neither party
is an imbecile, epileptic or of unsound
mind. The person applying for the Ii
cense must also be accompanied by an
identifying witness who will be requir.
ed to swear that the applicants are le-
gally qualified to marry.

WASHINGTON LETTER

Although the friends of water
ways are asserting that the
President will sign the river
and harbor appropriation bill,
there is no denying the fact
that considerable uneasiness
prevails among the members of

Commerce Committee OF the
Senate, over the repeated ru-
mors that President TAFT will
veto the bill unless three or four
paragraphs Of the bill eliminat-
ed in conference. These partic-
ular sections provide for p.o-
jects, neither passed upon nor
