WESTERN FARMERS ADOPT
MANY ORPHAN CHILDREN

Chicago, Sept. 27.-Bumper crops
in the west are opening homes to or
phans from the east. Sixty youngsters,
ranging in age from i to IA years,
from New York founding asylums,
passed through Chicago yesterday on
their way to Omaha and other west
ern points where they are to find
homes with farmers.
One of the children, s-year- old Ed
ward Devine, wept when he reached
Chicago because he thought it was
New York and that he had been taken
back there without ever seeing the
west He was not pacified till his mis-
take was explained to him.

New York. Sept. 27.--It is no longer
a secret that FRITZ Scheff, popular
light opera star and wife Of John Fox,
Jr, novelist philosopher, contemplates
suit for divorce. 1t has been learned
on unquestionable authority that the
charming little prima donna has been
unhappy for several years. Her tenn
permanent is so different from that of
her husband that friends fear they
never can live happily together.
"Oil and water cannot mix said
one friend: Neither can the Cum
berland and the Rialto, the student
and the spotlight. Mr.. Fox Is quiet
man, happy In his home and loving
only the peace and quiet Of the vir-
ginia hills. He is essentially a student,
whereas FRITZ is bubbling child of
Joy. The theatre Is her life and her
inspiration.
AFTER their marriage four years
ago Mr.. Fox took his bride to his home
In the mountains of Virginia. The
quiet gentleness and love of her hus-
band in their home, far from noisy
Broadway, was something new to her.
Then came the call of the stage. She
wanted TO go back, but she wanted
Mr.. Fox to go with her. For a time
he yielded. because he was as much
in love with her as she was with him.
But the constant travelling attendant
upon her customary life was irksorne
to him. He pinned for the freedom
and quiet Of his hills.
''On his many trips to New York
he saw his wife for the first time
from the other side Of the footlights.
Her piquancy and the effervescent per-
sonality that charmed her audience
sank a deep shaft OF love in his heart.
Miss Scheff naturally loves her
work. The theatre is her life and in
spiration, although she was and is sin
coral1r dauotad ia her. hl1siAa nd .

Women Students in Berlin.
The educational statistics Of Berlin
show that the number of women stu
dents is increasing there. The theo-
logical department alone shows fall
ing off, there being only one woman
registered, while there were several
last year. Besides the 25S women
who attend lectures without matricu-
lating, there are II women in the
school of jurisprudence, 172 medical
students and $50 in the department of
philosophy. There are in all about
Lib women students, of whom the
majority are in the philology and his
tory departments. The record shows
that many Of the important professors
have student daughters and that these
do not, as rule, aim to perfect them
selves in the branches taught by their
fathers. Among the representatives
Of the official class is the daughter
Of DR.. Reickes, mayor of Berlin, who
has matriculated in the department
tor the study of German.

THE SNAGS ARE MANY.

There is good deal OF uneaslucss
| in the councils of the leading Demo-
Gratis at Washington on n number Of
points. Presideut-eie Wilson has
never given in his adhesion to the
single term in the Presidency. although
that was distinct plank in the plat
form upon which he was elected; and
so there is liable to be friction upon
that point.
Another point of difference is on the
main question. that relating to the
tariff. Mr. Wilson has distinctly as
sured the public that the Democratic
procedure would be cautious and con
servative. and would not menace bust
ness. Speaker Clark and Mr.. BRYAN
OH the other hand. are out in full cry
for Immediate and drastic tariff re.
vision, according to the Democratic
idea that protection is unconstitutional
The big fight VIII come between these
two factions upon the assembling Of
the next Congress in special session
Another point of difference is that
many Democrats do not believe in the
measure relating TO the Panama Canal,
which was passed by the present Con
gress. that part of ii especially which
gives free passage 10 American coast
wise vessels, Representative Sims Of
Tennessee, backed by other Democrats,
seems determined to repeal the clause
of the enactment which allows Ameri-
can coastwise vessels to pass through
the canal free of tolls; but on looking
over the Democratic platform the
Democrats find that this feature Of the
law has the express Endorsement of the
Democratic National platform. This in
dorsement was put in by Bryan, as
sisted by Senators o German of New
York and Kern of Indiana. Represent
ative Sims has bill for the repeal of
this no-toll provision, holding that all
shipping should be treated alike, and
contending that TO accord American
coastwise ships free passage through
the waterway amounts to the payment
Of subsidy. But his bill is clearly
contrary TO the Baltimore platform
declaration, and it is not likely that he
can even get it through the House; but
he declares that he will try to pass it,
and so there will be another active
ground for contention,
Those who supposed that the Demo
cratic unity of voting would be fol
lowed by Democratic unity of purpose
and action are due to an awakening
that will likely surprise them.

THE BALKAN COMPACT.

There is reported resting period in
the Balkan war, and this is being util-
lied, according 10 the dispatches, by
the allies in bringing forward reinforce
ments TO the Bulgarian army and max
ing a diversion for the relief of the
army which is trying to capture the
Tchatalja forts, this relief BY move
ment which would flank the fortifica
tions of the Dardanelles, capture the
strait, and open the way for direct
attack upon Constantinople.
A report which the New York Trib-
une eondenses from lie Temps, Paris,
claims that the plan for this present
war really dated from the time directly
after Austria seized the provinces Of
Bosnia and Herzegovina. That was
done in 1908, and it caused bitter re-
sentiment among the Balkan nations.
The next year Bulgaria and Servia con
cluded an alliance. with the encourage
ment of Russia This alliance, however,
and it was suggested by the seizure
referred TO. Afterwards Greece and
Montenegro were taken INTO the com
pact. but this was not fully accom-
plished until last August, only few
weeks before the war began. The out
line Of this compact as given not only
provided for the concerted action of
these four nations against Turkey. it
also prescribed the division of the
spois OF war. The allies were appar-
emily certain Of just about such success
rs they have now largely achieved
that is TO say, Of crushing Turkey aud
oyerrunniDg the empire before there

GREAT MINING DIVIDENDS.

Two great mining dividends were
posted yesterday. in both of which
Utah mining men have large inter

the Utah Copper and the Nevada Con

Copper.
The Utah Copper declared its fourth
quarterly dividend for the year, amount
ing to $1,ls2,4l2.
The Nevada Consolidated declared
its regular quarterly dividend for the
year (the fourth amounting TO 371@
cents. 1t declared also an extra div
dend Of 90 cents for holiday present
to It's stockholders. the two amount

approximately. of Sl,750,UO0.
The aggregate OF these two great
dividends declared yesterday is $685.,

The total dividends declared by these
two great companies amounts to $27,-

the redeeming feature for a multitude.
