Measles kill Bsquinos in three days even when they are living out in the open in the summer.
 A storm of protest against this at titude has already arisen, a leading spirit being Rev. T. J. McCluskey, s. J., President of FordhaIn University.

MANY CASES WERE HEARD
Grand Jury Has Recess Until
Tuesday

While yesterday was not officially
designated as "Diyorce Day" in SUI
perior court, it was none the less
true that many unsatisfactory knots
oonnubial were severed by sympathet.
ic jurors after sundry tales of woe
had been unfolded by those weary OF
the matrimonial burden and who sigh
ed again for single blessedness.
There were nearly a score of di-
vorce suits upon the calendar at this
term of court, many having gone owe
from the previous term, and several
of these were disposed of yesterday to
the satisfaction of the applicants, Il
majority of whom were colored, al
though several white people were in
Guided. The session of court yester
day was taken up in the trial of cases
upon the civil docket. There will b.
no cases tried by jury today.
The grand jury has taken a recess
until next Tuesday morning, having
caught up very well with all business
brought before that body. The trial
of criminal cases will begin next Mon
day and the week will doubtless prove
a busy one, as there are several fell
ony cases, including murder charges,
which will be tried at the session next
week. The present session will con-
tinue at least two weeks longer, and
may even be extended beyond that pc
Rod ere both dockets are cleared.
