WHERE MARRYING is WRONG
Fellows Of Oxford University, Eng
land, in Certain Circumstances
Are Penalized for Wedding.

Much is heard of the taxation of
bachelors; but little is ever said of
the communities wherein matrimony
is deemed a punishable offense. Per-
haps the most extraordinary ideas
with reference to this subject may
be said to be held at Oxford Univer-
sity in England. There, for instance,
a fellow of All Souls College ~forfeits
his fellowship, if when studying the
classics, he should take unto himself
a wife. In such event he must not
only pay a penalty, but must also pre-
sent his college with a memorial in
he's shape of a silver cup, with the fur
her condition that on this cup shall
be inscribed in Latin, HE backslid
into matrimony."
There is an aristocratic club in Lon
don, the Bachelors of PiccadiIy,
whereof the members who so far for
get their loyalty to the club as to
marry are actually expelled and ostra-
clzed. The only saving feature of
such expulsion is that, by the pay
ment OF a fine of one hundred dollars,
the offending n may retain an hon
orary membership; but, So far as ac-
tive membership is concerned, he is
strictly out of it for the rest of his
life.
There is a similar organization in
Germany, the ~Junggesellen Club.
Whenever there comes to the officials
of this club any intimation that a
member contemplates matrimony, he
is Immediately summoned for trial in
the club court, with the president as
judge. The culprit is allowed to plead
IN excavation of his ~offense, and up
on his skill in presenting such plea
depends the amount of his fine, which
ranges from n hundred to one thou
sand dollars. The humorous feature
OF the fine consists in the application
made. The money is devoted to a
dinner, whereat all members appear
in mourning attire. At the conclu-
sion of the repast the president sol
emily reads the sentence of expul-
sion, and the delinquent is led from
the room amid the groans and lamen-
tations of his erstwhile club fellows.

that these creatures were able to hur1
forth fire and thunder from strange
implements that they carried. The
members of the tribe attacked the two
creatures and succeeded in killing one
of them with arrows, whereupon the
other made, motions to them signifying
that he and his companion were shoot

in peace.
When the Eskimos realized that

Wireless Works Better at Night.

That the long electric waves util-
lied in aerial ~telegTaphy over great
distances travel better during the
hours of darkness than of sunlight,
and that the natural electric waves:
o~ccasioned by atmospheric electric
discharges, known as "strays" or
ks" to wireless operators, are de-
spatched satisfactorily during
the hours of the night than in the
daytime is now a matter of common,
knowledge.
Tests made in London during the
solar eclipse on April IL last indicate
that the darkness of this eclipse had
the normal effect of facilitating the
propagation of these waves over great.
distances, but that there are portions
of time during the period of deepest
darkness at the receiving station when.
propagation is notably impeded.
Whether or not this last phenomenon.
is to be taken as a mere accident has.

The crop prospects in this por-
ton of the state are very salts

the yield of small grain is assured
A period of ten days of extremely
hot weather had begun to cause
some apprehension, although none

effects. On the Fourth relief ca me
in the shape of two showers, IN
which six-tenths of an inch of wa
ter fell. Then on Sunday night
another rain came in which an
inch and a tenth fell which will be-
sufficient to mature the small
grain IN good shape. The corn
has been a little backward but is
now making rapid growth, and the
fields are generally clean. The
rains during the past week have
apparently been general over the
state. The prospects for a good
average crop all through the east
ern portion of the state are good.
From west of the river reports have
been rather discouraging but the
recent rains will help out the corn
crop, and in many places it is be,
lieved that a fair small grain crop
will yet be harvested.
