From Prof. Edward Alsworth Ress's
 ''The Middle West" in the February
 Century.
 That the divorce rate rises as you go west is partly due to the willing ness of chivalrous legislators to put this weapon into the wife's hands, partly to the divorcee's much better chance of remarriage. It is a curious fact that the order of the forty-six states arranged according to divorce rates. beginning with the lowest. tal- lies in a remarkable way with the order of the states arranged accord ing to proportion of women, beginning with the highest
 Any shortage of women that makes the men eager suitors alters the terms of the marriage partnership to the advantage of the wife and betters the lot of the married woman. Ac- cordingly the codes of the western st-Ees treat the wife with more liber- aIity than did the codes of the older states, and fairness to women seems to be a western practice that sprea ds East. Indeed the enviable position of the American woman is largely the cumulative outcome of the scarcity value she has for a time enjoyed in the lower commonwealths.

ELECTION OF COUNTY
SCHOOL TRUSTEES.

In answer to number of inquiries
that have been made recently relative
to the election of five county school
which election has been or
dered to be held on April 6, 1912, /
wish to say that section of the
school law enacted by the Thirty
second legislature provides for five
county school trustees to be elected
the first Saturday in April, the same
being the day for the election of one
district school trustee in the various
common school districts of the county.
The law provides that four of the
county school trustees must each re-
side in different commissioners pre-
cincts, but all five are to be voted on
by the county at large.

County Superintendent.

was given a liberal hand in the way
of attendance.
The noon street parade consisted of
three brass bands, steam caliope,
women in costume riding horses and
dens with imported wild animals At
the grounds concert was given be-
fore the opening performance by a
band which is much above the average
smaller circus musical organization.
The show is noticeable from one
particular point Of view which is
usually most prominent. There was no
crooked work of any kind, such as dice
games, the old army game and others,
which contribute more to the manage
ments pocket than others.-Calumet

Anlusenents
"The Colleen Rawn.u

AS advertised the Dixie Theatre pre-
sented as a special feature last night
the Irish drama inN three reels, "The
Colleen Bawn." The house was crowd
ed and the pictures were good, dis
playing an unusual good scenic produc.
ton.
Presenting this story in three reels
gave the same effect as a real staged
production of three acts, and it was
greatly enjoyed.
In addition to this play, the theatre
produced another thrilling scene, "The
Battle as extra for the evening,
which was fine.
Next Monday evening the Dixie will
present another special, AUD Lang
Syne," which will no doubt be a great
success and enjoyed by large crowd.
The prices to these special shows re-
main the same, 10 cents.

ONE OF THE 'K|LI|Es"
HAD NARROW ESCAPE


While the "Kilties" were parading
the streets of Bryanstoday a member
of the band was almost run down by
a passing automobile, and in attempt
ing to get out of the way caught his
kits on the machine and was relieved
of that necessary part of his costume
in an instant. The. kilt, which is a
short TARTAN skirt striking the wearer
just above the knees, was fastened
around his waist by a single strap,
which gave way freely and prevented
the bandsman from being thrown.
Other members of the "Kilties'
formed circle around their compan-
ion, who was mainly exposed to the
public gaze for several minutes, and
provided him with temporary skirt
made of shawl, which is also a part
of their Scotch highland uniform, it
being worn over the left shoulder.
There was a rush of the curious
crowd to the scene of the accident
with the intention, it is thought, of
seeing for themselves just what a
Scotchman does wear under his kits
which would settle the mystery once
and for all. Nothing was reported.
The "Kilties" give one of their per-
formances at the college this after
noon at o'clock under auspices of
the Long Horn, and another at $3.50
tonight at the Colonial Theatre. The
programs will be entirely different.

CONSTABLE c. |.
BAKER ANNOUNCES

The Eagle is authorizedfo announce
Constable c. L. Baker as candidate
for reelection to the office of con-
stable of precinct No. 4. He announces
subject to the action of the democratic
primary to be held in July.
Mr.. Baker is one of the best known
men in the county, His long service
as peace officer has brought him in
close touch with the people and there
is perhaps not voter in the precinct
who does not know him. He has been
constable of this precinct for many
years and has made a splendid officer.
While he is conservative, he is fear
less in the discharge of his duties,
none of them getting too big or too
bad for him to walk around and when
ever violation of law comes under
his observance somebody gets arrest
ed. To the loafer and crap shooter he
is the bane of their existence, and UNI
der his midnight raids hundreds OF
them have been made to come across.
Upon the record he has made he
stands for reelection, and If again en-
trusted with the office promises the
people the same sleepless vigilance in
the preservation of the peace and the
bringing to justice all who violate the
law.
The Eagle takes pleasure in pre-
senting his claims to the voters of the
precinct.
