CHASED THIEF 5
YEARS: SUICIDED

New York. March a.-Ben Epp gave
up the chase. The bullet he intended
for the man who five years ago stole
his $4,000 he sent into his own head
and his body lies unclaimed at the
morgue.
Ben Epp was a cattleman from VAN

arrived in New York fortnight ago.
He got word that the man in whose
search he had spent almost his last
dollar had been seen in the vicinity
of Fourteenth street and Third ave
nue.. He came on and haunted the
SPOT for days. When he became con-
WINGED his game had again eluded him
he lost his courage.
The story in of his search he told
in part to young woman, Mrs. Har-
ry Rice OF 22S West Twenty-Fifth
street, whom he met at cheap thea
ter last Wednesday.

DIVORCE HELD AS
DOMESTIC CURE-ALL
George Barnard Shaw, Nov
elist, Would Make Sepa-
ration Very Easy.

New York, March 9.--George Bern
ard Shaw INDUCED in some sensational
propositions in his new book " Get
ting Married" just published by Bren-
tano. The book embodies a highly in
teresting and iconoclastic drama, to-
gether with an interminable preface
in which the author airs his views on
marriage and divorce. He eNtols dl-
vorce as the panacea for marriage.
Here are some of his dictums:
l. Make divorce as easy, as cheap
and as private as marriage.
. Grant divorce at the request OF
either party. whether the other CON
sents or not. and admit no other
ground than the request, which should
be made without stating any reason
3. Confine the power of dissolving
marriage for misconduct to the state
acting on the petition OF the kink S
proctor or other suitable functionary
who may, however, be moved by eth
err party to intervene in ordinary re
quest cases, not to prevent the divorce
| taking place. but to enforce alimony
| if it be refused and the case is one
| which needs it.
| Marriage as Punishment.
| 4. Make it impossible for marriage
to be used as a punishment as it is
at present Send the husband and
wife to penal servitude if you disap
prove of their conduct and want to
punish them; but don't send them
back to perpetual wedlock.
3. If on the other hand. you think
a couple perfectly innocent and vel
conducted, do not condemn them also
to perpetual wedlock against theil
wills. therefore making the treatmen
of what you consider innocence OF
both sides the same as the Treatment
of what you consider guilt on bott
sides.
6. Place the work of a wife and {
mother on the same footing as othel
work: that is, on the footing of labor
worthy of it's hire; and provide fol
employment in it exactly as for EN-
ploment in shipbuilding or any othel
recognized breadwinning trades.
= Take and deal with all the con
sequences of these acts of justice in
stead of letting yourself be frightened
out of reason and sense by fear of the
consequences. We must finally adap
our institutions to human nature. II
the long run our present plan of tryin.
to force human nature into a mold o
existing abuses, superstitions and sor
rupt interests produces the explosive
forces that wreck civilization.
s. Never forget that if you leav'
your law to judges and your religion

WE GET A STATE FARM

One of the practical results of our Labor
Day celebration is that state experimental
farm will be established at Cookeville in con-
nection with the Dixie University This
is the first state farm located anywhere, and
will be under the direction of the depart
ment of agriculture. The Importance of
this work cannot be over estimated, and
shows in part the favorable impression made
by Cookeville and her new school by the
way her citizens do things.
The attention of Gov. Hooper was called
to the fact that agricultural work would be
taken up by the school and he became inter-
ested to such an extent that upon his return
to Nashville he Immediately took up the mat
ter with commissioners Peck-and Cookeville

THE MAINE ELECTION

An election was held in Maine last Monday
to pass on the retention or repeal Of the pro-
hibion article in the state constitution. The
vote was very close, and cannot be fully de-
termined until the official count is declared.
However, there is an apparent majority of a
few hundred for repeal of the prohibition
article.
Maine has been under prohibition since
1847, or about GA years, and during all that
time liquor has been freely sold in all the
larger towns and cities and bootegged in
the smaller towns and rural communities.
The law has been farce, and the people Of
the state have apparently become tired of the
hypocrisy Of maintaining dry law that pro-
duced so much wetness.
Gradually all the states that have tried
statewide prohibition are repudiating that
system of handling thesliquor problem, The
trouble is that the statewide theory does
not work out There is but one solution Of
the drink evil, namely, rear generation of
men and women who will not use intoxicat-
ing liquor.
