Mrs. Jack Gailatin, who is soon TO
marry William Pomeroy Sayre, son OF
the late Lewis Hall Sayre. in New
York. Sayre's brother and sister also
are to marry divorced persons, and
the announcement of the three betro-
thals to Divorces has caused a ripple
of gossip in New York social circles.
OF the three divorced persons, Mrs.
Gallatin, daughter of the late Al Ad-
ans, the policy king has perhaps
the most interesting career. Her di-
vorce from the we'll known clubman
was fraught with sensational episodes,
but it TRANSFERRED that the real cause of
the disagreement was Mrs. Gala
tins refusal to support the young So
ciety man in idleness. Mrs. Gallatin is
supposed to be worth half million
dollars in her own right. Until her
marriage with Jack Gallatin, her name
was not in the social register. She
said at the time of her divorce that
she would never marry again, but
amended this by declaring her next
husband must work. Young Sayre is
actively connected with the American
Express company. The couple have
been acquainted only a few months,
and the courtship is said to have been
unusually ardent.

IMPROVEMENTS FOR
PARK IS PROPOSED
City Administration Backs a
Movement to Add to At
tractiveness of Glen

1t is quite probable the administra-
ton will ask the city council in Sep
TENDER, when the budget ordinance
for next year is considered, to provide
for liberal increase in the appropria-
ton for Glen Miller park Mayor Zim-
norman and President Hammond of
the board of public works keenly rea-
lie that Richmond has one of the best
public parks in the country and they
ular than it now is by improving its
attractiveneSs.
President Hammond wants to erect
"a beautiful archway over the Main
street entrance to the park. to add
to the ZOO" to drain and fill in the
waste lands to the east of the Main
street entrance. and, eventually, erect
a pavilion.
Il believe the park would be much
improved if a suitable archway was
placed over the Main street entrance
to the park" remarked Mr.. Hammond
People pass the park constantly. in
traction cars and automobiles and, be-
ing strangers. do not know what the
beautiful tract of land is With an
archway over the Main street en-
trance, on which would be inscribed
Glen Miller Park. the advertising
benefit the park and the city would
obtain would be of the greatest value
"One of the most popular features
of the park are the animals in the zoo
Each year l think the city should add
to this collection, and money to pur-
chase additions to the ZOO should be
provided for in the park appropriation
There is considerable waste land
to the east of the Main street entrance
that could be drained and filled in.
hope this can be done next year"
The administration has used some
money from the city's Chautauqua
fund for improving the park and it
has been a popular move. There is
still about $4,000 remaining in this
fund and the Chautauqua receipts for
this year will probably increase it to
over $4,000. There is general approval
of the project to use all the money in
this fund to improve the park and the
administration will probably act oc-
cordingly.
Now that the Hawkins park project
is assured there is a movement on
foot to connect this park with Glen
Miller by constructing a driveway un-
der the Pennsylvania tracks. Presi-
dent Hammond says that this can be
done and he is in favor of it,

SALOON CONTEST A
VERY BITTER ONE
Fight in Texas on the Liquor
Question Will Be Closed
Last of the Week.
National News Association)


Austin. Texas. July 2O-Texas ID
about to go to one of the stffrest tests
made anywhere in the country be.
tween the liquor interests and the an.
ti-saloon forces. The State campaign
which has been waged with a bitter.
ness that has seemed to increase daily
for the past three months will close
tomorrow and on Saturday the voters
will decide whether or not an amend
ment providing for Statewide prohibit
tion shall be added to the Constitution
OF Texas.
Reports from all directions indicate
that this is by far the most bitter po-
litical struggle which ever has occurr-
ed in the Lone Star State. Today and
tomorrow the fight will be brought to
q whirlwind finish with mass meet
ings in every nook and corner of the
Commonwealth, from the Panhandle
to the Gulf, and from Ell Paso to the
forests of East Texas.
II seems impossible to forecast the
result OF the special election with any
degree OF certainty. From the head
quarters Of both the prohibitionista
and the antiprohibitionists are ema.
mating reports indicating that both
sides view the outlook with equal con-
hdence.
Some onlookers see in the results Of
the last Democratic primary an indi-
cation of the vote in the coming cleo
ton. To the majority, however, the re-
suits OF the recent primary only serve
to make the present situation the
more puzzling. In the primary an over
whelming vote for Railroad Commits
sioner Oscar b. Colquitt, the anti-pro-
hibitionist candidate for governor, was
polled. but at the same time a great
demand for the submission of the pro-
hibition question was voted. In Demo
cratic Texas, nomination in a Demo
cratic primary is equivalent to election
and although Mr.. Colquitt was assur-
ed Of the post of governor, he was
obliged by the votes of the people to
submit to a vote on the question Of
prohibition.
throughout the campaign both sides
have maintained headquarters in a
number of the leading cities of the
State. From these headquarters tons
of literature have been mailed and
hundreds Of speakers have been
sent forth to stump the country from
end to end. Governor Colquitt himself
has led the force of anti speakers. On
the prohibition side former Governor
Campbell has been one of the most
active workers. The newspapers, the
churches, the Y. M. C. A. and numer-
GUS organizations have lined up on
one side or the other in the campaign
and many instances are cited where
even families are split over the issue
The only feature of the struggle
which stands out with unmistakable
clearness Is the fact that the public
generally Is DESTROYS that the saloon
question be definitely settled once and
for all, for 1t has long been a bugbear
in Texas politics. But whether they
want to vote out the saloon at the
same time is question that can be
answered only by count of the votes
day after tomorrow

Gags, With and Without.

D'Oyly Carte once produced '"The
Gondoliers" at Windsor by command
of the late Queen Victoria. A finely
bound volume Of the libretto had been
provided for the queen, who referred
to it frequently to keep abreast of the
opera. When the curtain fell she sent
for D'Oyly Carte to express her ap-
prevail and. having done so, remarked
that she had noticed that some Of the
actors had said things which were Cot
set down in the book.

"gags."
