PRESBYTERY OPENS WAR
ON CHILD MARRIAGES
Judiciary in Philadelphia Re-
fers Question to Committee
on Public Morals.

PHILADELPHIA, July 3.-The increas-
der age. particularly children barely on,
of the grammar school, who go to Will
mington swear they are Of age and are
married by ministers has stirred the
presbytery Of Philadelphia. The COM
mittee on public morals Of that body will
make an investigation Of the subject and
will report its findings next fall.
Believing that the ministers in Will
mington, which has grown to be the
-Gretna Green of this city and sur
rounding towns. can exercise a super
vision over the marriage question and
prevent in many cases unsuitable mar.
riages, the ministers and laymen com.
posing the committee will endeavor tc
find some means OF curbing what Is be-
ing recognized as a deadly evil.
Duty of Ministers.
1T is an easy matter for a minister
to determine whether the persons before
him are fit to be married or not, said
the Rev. DR.. William p Fulton, perma-
nent clerk of the presbytery, yesterday
Il know that when a young-looking pair
appear before me I question them be-
fore performing the ceremony. 1t should
be easy for minister asked to marry q
young pair TO inquire into the cncum-
stances.
when they appear before him he
could ask the ages of the pair. and then
for their addresses. A next question
would be as to whether the parents OF the
pair approve Of their marriage, and the
parents could be communicated with. In
many cases this would be enough to pre-
vent the marriage and also the breaking
Of the hearts of the parents.
''It is terrible thing for a mother to
come home and tell her she is married,
and it is as bad for the father. BY cut
ting down on the marriages a great deal
Of unhappiness would be prevented"
Two Ways Presented.
There are two ways in which the COM
mittee can go about its work: One is to
present a law to the Delaware leSisla-
ture 30 that legal opposition to these
marriages can be established. The other
way is to enlist the interest of the minis
ters who are in position to perform the
marriages. 1t was because of the dis
pleasure Of church bodies that many
ministers who formerly performed mar
riageS for divorced persons have cea sed
the practice. AS pointed out yesterday.
there are very few ministers of any de-
nomination in this city who will marry
divorced persons, unless the persons to
be married are the innocent parties in
what are known as biblical grounds.
The committee on public morals OF
the presbytery is composed as follows
The Rev. Henry F. Jones, chairman
the Revs. George B. Bell. Fl. Alfred
Boggs. George II. Wales, Robert b.
Wallace. William Y. Brown and John NJ.
Fulton: Charles Young Samuel c. Henry.
+. A. Wells, Allan Sutherland and II. w.

Flag Swung to the Breeze.

A thousand yards away a company of
militia on the rifle range peppered away
at long lines of targets backing on the
sea- Some one telephoued the clubhouse
and the firing ceased. Down the twisted
roadway there raced a bevy of automo-
biles. AS they drew up in front of the
governors cottage half a dozen man
jumped from one and ran with flash
Of bunting under their arms to a lofty
nagpole and a second later a forty foot
flag was ripping from the top in the
breeze

the crowd gave them with a will. The
governor removed his soft brown hat,
bowed and said:
Gentlemen, / thank you from my
heart"

Band Gets to Work.

Farther yet down the road-a mile, they
said. though 1t seemed like two-a' brass
band of forty pieces lay under cover
awaiting a signal. They had been wait
ing there two days. practicing in the
evening on Hail to the Chief and "See
the Conquering Hero Comes When the
signal came the leader stepped out and
asked IL they were ready. They were.
So they marched down the road in the
wake of innumerable automobiles. past
scores of pedestrians. with growing
encourage. and stopped on the governor $
lawn. And there they played while the
visitors applauded and the governor
beamed his thanks.
Within the governors parlor there was
a great crowding of visitors and shaking
of hands and bestowing of all sorts of
good wishes and predictions. The gov
ernor's three daughters. Misses Jessie,
Margaret and Eleanor. were quite beside
themselves with happiness, while Mrs.
Wilson smiled and said she felt. "Oh, so
solemn" and that the responsibility was
almost as terrible as the suspense. But
the governor acted like an enthusiastic
boy grown dignified and said ii was al
most too good TO be true

Feels His Responsibility.

1.-The honor is as great as can come to
any man by the nomination of party,
the nominee said, as the group stood at
tentively by. especially in the circum-
stances, and l hope l appreciate it at its
true value. but just at this moment

wolves, even more than 1 feel the honor
i hope with all my heart that the party
will never have reason to regret it.
The governor was allowed only brief
respite before there poured in the deluge
OF callers who had hung about the tick
ers and bulletin boards for seven days
They streamed by every road and path
way to the white cottage, swarmed over
the lawn. climbed on the porch, perched
themselves on the brass cannon guarding
the entrance on the knoll nearby, on the
fence-anywhere there was room to sit
and cheered again and again. Between
bursts of applause they called him Wood

most of all they hailed him as the mex,

Learned News Over Telephone.

When the newspaper correspondents
notified Wilson Of his nomination yester-
day afternoon they found the man they
sought when his life as nominee of the
democratic party was less than min
ute old. He was laughing and chatting
with his wife and daughters. The news,
he said, had come moment before over
the long-distance telephone after days
of anxious waiting, and the few seconds
he had spent with his family were his
first Of real relaxation during the week.

Whatever else the governor does, he will
continue and visit Trenton every Tues

summer mansion was first built, of keep
ing Governors day" at the state capitol
His friends are positive that he Will not
resign as governor until after the hrst

CHICAGO STREET CARS AND FREEZING WEATHER


type usually masquerading under
the title of Chicago street car
was slowly moving by fits and
jerks down Halsted street.
On the corner where the crowd
stood awaiting its coming, the
mercury of the thermometer as if
in despair or disgust had crept
out of sight.
Blue Tipped and red nosed, the
bunch climbed on board the nick
el-chariot, hunting for a little
warmth.
The sides, ends and roof of the
car, serving as a wind break, pro-
tected the passengers from the
raw and cutting Chicago breeze,

According to press accounts
this was not an isolated instance

When thousands hurried yes

office to the cars on their home

many instances there was but lit

Both surface and elevated cars
offered poor protection from the
