Publicity of Marriage Vows.

Waterloo. May 15.-Special: Judge
Franklin C. Plat, who, during his
long term on the bench in the Tenth
judicial district has heard scores of
complaints for divorce, deplores the
fact that so many couples have found
marriage failure and as a remedy
to reduce the number of legal separa
tons suggests the following: That
engagements of couples be published
thirty or sixty days before the mar
riage vows are taken. That health
certificates testify to the fact that
neither contracting party is afflicted
with a contagious disease. Judge
Plat believes that brief courtships
with true love lacking. furnish a
large factor in suits for divorce. Pub.
LEGATION of names OF betrotned persons
would do away with hasty marriages.
elopements and secret matings. II
is probable that movement will be
set on foot to incorporate the sugges.
tions into law.

Highway women are a new class OF

o'clock this morning. He claims that
he was walking along the street and
noticed two negresses approaching.
One was bent over and hobbled along
as if crippled. Just as she reached
him, he says, she exclaimed: "Oh,
help me; | can't go any farther" AS
she said this she threw both arms
about him and went into his pockets
for the money. He struck her and
knocked her down, but the other WON.
an tripped him and they both escap.
ed A theft was committed night be-
fore last by two negresses, and
though their descriptions do not tai

PASSING OF THE VETERANS
THE PENSION ROLL LOST 29,es5
NAMES LAST YEAR.
Up to the Beginning of This Year the
U. S. has Pain $3,995,719,s36
to Veterans.

Washington, D. c.. May 15.-Spe.
cial: That the crest of the wave in
pension payments has been passed
appears in the foOtings that are grad,
ually being made as the end of the
! fiscal year approaches in the pension
office. There will be a much larger
falling off this year than last in the
total number of pensioners and a cor
responding reducti n of the aggregate
outlay in pension payments.
The grand roll lost 2S,9S5 names
last year, and there was a falling off
in the payments amounting to $2,7S9,,
442, or a little less than 500 for each
pensioner. The gigantic proportions
of this pension burden may be con-
ceived when the aggregate of eXpen'
duture on the account of the various
wars in which this country has been
involved Is examiiisd.

Christian Frederick was proclaimed
king of Denmark as Frederick VIII on
