The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1911-06-07

Next Sunday it will be twenty-five
years since the writer graduated from
the DenisOn high school. A quarter
of a century has not served to efface
the memory of those happy days nor
to diminish the relative importance
of the event. Graduation from the
city high school is an important epoch
in life. 1t is a turning point full
stop. from which many things in after
large extent. mark the boundary
twixt youth and maturity. Fortunate
ly graduation from the Denison high
school means much more today than
it did twenty-five years ago. We
doubt il the work is more thorough,
but it IS certainly more cOmprehenS-
i've and carries the youth to a higher
degree OF preparation for after life
Twenty-Five years have not wiped out
the memory of the joys of commence
ment week and of the proud eminence
from which we looked down upon the
rest OF mankind. At any rate there
is enough of the old spirit left in US
so that we are ready to rejoice with
the young folks of today, to look with
sympathetic complacence upon all
their fun and frOlics and to urge the
community as whole to join heart
lily with them to make this week one
OF the most memorable and one of the
happiest of the graduates lives.

Many people, who few months
ago were distressed by high prices,
are now more distressed at falling
values. All of which goes to show
that the American people are never
exactly satisfied with what they have.
And it is we'll that they are not. Ii
everybody was satisfied the country
would suffer from dry rot.-Nonpareil.

Probably one-half or more of the
people OF the Tenth district do not
know that we are supposed to be rep
resented in Washington by fellow by
the name of Woods. In order to get
before the public and make himself
known it is said that he will become
candidate to succeed himself and
try and be elected again. In order to
settle a dispute we will say that his
first name is Frank p, and that he
lives at Estherville when he is at
home. He is the first congressman
the Tenth district ever had who has
not vitality, energy and individuality
enough to make himself known three
blocks from where he has lived for
many years. He was elected as a
Cummins kite flyer. No one was &C
quainted with him and no one is yet

EUROPEAN PORTS

bryo Admirals Aboard,

ANNAPOLIS, Md, June 5.-With the
flagship Iowa in the lead, followed by
the Indiana and Massachusetts, the
fleet which will carry the brigade of
midshipmen on their summer practice
cruise got under way this morning at

them over 1000 miles of ocean paths
and European ports never before visited
by the students at the Naval Academy
Queenstown will be reached at the end
OF the first leg of the trip, the date
set for the arrival being June 10. There
will be no stop on the voyage of four
teen days, nor will there be on the re-
turn trip from Gibraltar. which is esti-
mated to take one day more. After
Queenstown. Kiel, Germany, and Ber-
gen, Norway, will be visited, and AT
each there will he a stop of one week.
A like period will be spent at Gibraltar.
which will be the fourth and last Stop
ping place on the other side of the At
lantic.
While the four stops at different
points will afford the midshipmen oppor.
tunity for pleasure and profit, the long
periods on the seas mean hard work.
A course of study and practical instruc-
tion has been laid out. and al the same
time the midshipmen will do the full
duty of sailors, Coaling and Naming
ship, standing watch, washing clothes
and doing tricks at the wheel.

turn about August 8. Commander r. f
Coontz is in command of the feet.

Bourne Defends Stand
For Recall of Judges

Senator Bourne Of Oregon is out in a
statement in which he upholds the re-
call in general and its application to
the judiciary in particular. He criu-
cises Col. Theodore Roosevelt and Gov.
Woodrow Wilson for their objections to
the application of the recall to the
judiciary.
Expressing his regret at the positions
of Roosevelt and Wilson, Senator
Bourne says:
They fear that if judges are made
subject to recall they will lose their in
dependence and permit their opinions
and official actions to be Influenced by
their political interests. If that is true,
then judges now permit their decisions
and official actions to be Influenced by
desire for denomination. reelection, or
promotion. If a judge will permit his
official actions to be Influenced by fear
of the recall, he already permits his
actions to be Influenced by fear of the
political boss and his hacker, the cam
paign contributor. The objection of these
two eminent gentlemen is not so much
a criticism of the recall as it is a re-
Election upon the integrity and intelIi-
eence Of the American people and the
integrity and courage of the Judiciary"

KA|SERS DAUGHTER
REPORTED ENGAGED
TO PRINCE ADOLF
German Ruler Quoted as
Saying She Will Not Be
Political Sacrifice.

BERLIN. June 6-According to the
Berlin Zeitung, an announcement will
be made on June II of the betrothal of
Princess Victoria Louise, only daughter
of the Kaiser, to hereditary Prince
Adolph frederick of Mecklenburg-
Strelitz.
The paper quotes the Kaiser as say
ing: II do not intend to sacrifice my
girl for politics. She shall marry for
happiness above all else"
II the Zeitung is well informed, the
recent runor of a forthcoming engage
ment between Princess Victoria Louise
and the Prince OF Wales. her second
cousin, was without foundation.
The princess is only twenty years
old, but she has already refused many
offers OF marriage that would have
been Of far greater political importance
to Germany than her marriage to
Prince Adolf, which, in fact, would be
Of no political significance.

YOUNG GIRL RISKS
LIFE IN EFFORT TO
SAVE WOMAN ATTIRE
Jennie Goldman Burned Try
ing to Extinguish Flam-
ing Neighbor.

NEW YORK, June 5.-That sort OF
heroism which wins Immortality on a
battlefield and only a line or two OF
comment on a newspaper page was
displayed by eighteen-year-o old Jen-
ME Goldman, 53S East 14Sth street
when the Sunday quiet of her par
ents' apartment was suddenly broken
by piercing screams as a terrified
woman. her clothing all aflame, rush
ed through the door.
The woman was Miss Tillie Stengel,
who lived across the hall.
Little Miss Goldman. alone in the
fat, rushed at Miss Stengel and seiz-
ed her by the arms. The flames that
enveloped her had no terror for her
rescuer. The girl tried to beat them
out with her bare hands. But 1t was
hopeless. She tried to tear off the
garments, but could not.
Finally she rushed into a bed ROOM
and. selling a comforter from the
bed, ran back and wrapped II around
Miss Stengel who had fallen to the
floor, fainting from fright and pain.
Miss Goldman thus extinguished the
fire.
The surgeon with Lincoln Hospital
ambulance found Miss Stengel in a
serious condition. Miss Goldman. suf-
fering circulating pain, was sitting
quietly in a chair, her burned hands
clenched, her lips tightly set in con-
summate effort at self-control.
Both were rushed to the hospital,
where Miss Stengel died later. Miss
Goldman probably will recover.

CLERGY DENOUNCE
NEW DIVORCE LAW
IN MELONS CASE
Argue That Tendency Would
Be to Make Annulment of
Marriage More Easy.

PITTSBURG. June 5.-While the con-
test is in progress to obtain a Jury trial
for beautiful Mrs. Andrew ". Mellon
In the divorce suit brought by the rich
financier, Pittsburg clergy have taken
up the fight against the amendment to
the Pennsylvania divorce law under
which Banker Mellon SEEKS to have the
case against his wife tried IN secret and
without jury.
The Rev. DR.. Warren G. Partridge,
pastor OF the First Baptist Church, said:
Anything that tends to make divorce
easier in injurious. 1t is Infamous Sc
cretly to jam through the Legislature
such bit of legislation as this divorce
amendment. 1t is un-American. Trial
by jury is one OF the fairest Of American
principles, and If 1t is the purpose of
this new act to make the question of
trial by jury optional with one Judge IT
IS nao thing. l stand solidly for the
FAMILY and home. The divorce question
as 1t stands Is bad enough without hav-
tnE any distortions of the statutes that
tend to make it worse"
Bishop Cortlandt Whitehead, of the
Pittsburg diocese of the Episcopal
church, said:
Divorce laws should be regarded as
the most sacred on the statute books

ton Is one of the most terrible exam
Iles of the wretched unfitness of the
class of men now in power to make
laws for this State. / knew nothing of
the law until after II was passed, and l
understand many legislators knew moth
ing Of IT until after it had become a
law
The Rev. William McMullen, rector
Of St. Pauls Cathedral, also bitterly de-
noUnCes the new law. which he says has
tendency TO make divorce more
Venient, and. therefore, strikes a blow
at the family and home.
