Ifaph Ott and his wife who seeks freedom from her
 matrimonial bOlds

St. Louis, Sept 5.-The strangest romance of modern times has gone
 the way of too many modern TO- mances, and Mrs. Ralph Chesey Ott is suing for divorce from the artist whom she married little over two years ago, and whom she mad met and loved some 5000 years before that in Egypt. Mrs. Ott alleges cruelty in her suit, and it seems the only point on which the two still agree is the story of their reincarnated romance. According to both their tales she as the princess Amn6ris, 5000 years ago, and he was an artist in the employ Of her naughty father, Pharaoh. As In their modern romance it was a case of love at first sight when the Princess and the artist met for the first time in the Queens chamber of the Great Pyramid After that they used to walk in the palace gardens and go to the river, where they red sWeet-meats to the crocodiles.

Also large numbers of cards have teen distributed. bearing terse arguments i'll t4yor Of the adoption of the amendment.
 It is explained in tho literature which has been distributed that Amendment No h, if adopted, "doe3 not foist, as may be urged, an issue of bonds on anN city or Incorporated town. On the contrary, it only rc- moves the obstacles now in the con stitution which prevent the issuing of bonds under my and all conditions.
 Ii further is explained that the pub lie, hy the terms of the proposed amendment, must be thoroughly ad- vised of proposed bond elections and the purposes for which money is to be raised. The measure provides tIat funds are to be raised through bond issues only for pEblG improve ments ot q general nature for the use of the city or town in which they are voted.
 Another point on which stress is being laid is that the passase of the measure will not affect taxes of any one outside the towns and cities. It is because of this fact becoming clear, that aeople from sections of the state removed from towns. arc writing that they intend to vote in favor of the amendment, it being clear that the cities and towns of the state would gain by it's adoption

Commercial Politics.

Commerce forms a numerous class
friends of external peace and internal
tranquility, who attach themselves to
the established government.
1t creates great fortunes, which In
republics become the origin of the
most forceful aristocracies. AS rule
commerce enriches the cities and
their inhabitants, and increases the
laboring and mechanical classes, In
opening more opportunities for the
requirement Of riches. To an extent
1t fortifies the Democratic element
in giving the people of the cities
greater influence in the government.
1t arrives at nearly the same result

BEARS HAVE LITTLE CHANCE
Methods of Hunters In india Make
Capture Of Game They Go After
a Certainty.

A curious method of capturing wild
bears Is employed In certain parts OF
India. Four or FIVE sturdy men are
armed, two with long spears cross.
barred on the handles close to the
sharp two-edged blade. and two or
three with ten-foot bamboos. of which
the ends are smeared with bird lime
Thus equipped and leading several
powerful dogs. the hunters sally forth
an hour or so before dawn. They
pass along the base of the hills with
the fresh morning wind blowing up
from the plains below.
Should the hunters be lucky, 1t is
not long before the fierce dogs wind
the bear. and though the dogs of this
species hunt silently, their straining
on the leash informs their owners that
the game Is nigh.
The dogs are slipped and disappear
In the semi-darkness. Soon their
roaring and growing indicate that
they have found the game. The hunt.
ers run up to the spot where the bear
Is fighting with the dogs.
The men with the lined poles poke
the bear in the ribs and adroitly twist
the ends In its long hair, thus holding
1t fast on each flank The spearmen
complete the operation by repeated
spear thrusts.
1t is said that a party of experienced
men with good dogs never fail to Sc.
cure the bear In this way.
