u nominating the Republican caa-
didste at the Chicago convention
The fundamental error Of the %.
lection, however lies IN the mis-
taken notion that convention dele
gates have anything to do with the
electoral college vote, which decides
not the nomination but the election
Of a president from among the can
didates of varIous parties. The del
egates to the Republican nominating
convention in Chicago are delegated
for the purpose OF expressing the
Republican choice Of nominee.
They are chosen by Republicans
alone, whereas the members OF the
electoral college are elected by mem
bers Of all political parties that can
muster enough vStes over their OPP
ponents.
The Press might Just as we'll say
that Wilson and Clark delegates
from northern states should not be
included in the Wilson and sclark
lists because those states have for
the most part always given their
electoral votes to Republican presi-
Dental candidates. 1t could, with
equal logic, demand the exclusion of
all those northern delegates from
the Democratic convention in Balti-
more.

one CongresslonaI puty.

Congress has much to do, but It
should not adjourn without giving
the Supreme Court of the United
States some new law relative to
paint rights.
The court has held, four to three,
that the owner OF a patent may die
tate to the lesses or purchasers the
kind of supplies and materials that
are to be used in connection with It.
Under this ruling some of the trusts
will find shelter.
Nothing is more needed than an
object lesson in this country today,
declares the st. Louis Republic, than
demonstration by Congress, such
as emphatic legislation on this point
would be, OF It's power to give law
to the courts as well as to the peo-
pie.
The supreme court has declared
the law as 1t now is. To most peo-
Pile 1t is Objectionable because 1T ex-
tends patent rights unduly. 1t will
do mo good to berate the court or to
propose half-baked or revolutionary
reforms. The one sure way to set
matters right is for Congress to
pass law covering the point on
which the court disagreed and
making the matter so plain that
hereafter there can be no possibility
of Doubt.

lead cat and dog existence. They always insist on having double star plays, and if we have no such plays on hand we have to get them written for them.
 "There is the same wrangling about their press notices successes, etc. Lovers seem to lose their flavor if they are husband and wife in actual life. Where they are starring in different companies the conditions are not great deal better. The wife is in rage every time she hears that her husband is carrying on a harmless Irritation with some actress in his company. When she is not perturbed about this she is fretting about her child and other home cares"
 If on the night of Dec. g, 1908, Virginia Harmed had remained in Atlanta instead of jumping 1000 miles to Chicago to spend a few hours with her husband, E. H. Sothern, she might never have sued for a divorce. She was playing in Atlanta, Ga., in "Ca- mille," and after the play she hurried back to her hotel and called up Chicago, where. her husband was playing.

The only explanation they gave wns the following :: " My husband and I loved each other, but we could not agree on all things took my coffee in bed, much to the disgust of my Ger man husband. He is like the rest-he wants the little housewife to get up and sit at the table and pour his coffee. So nice and do- nestle, you know; but the other way is more comfortable"
 Though Julia Marlowe has shown the cour- age to enter matrimony after separation from her first husband, her first experience cer- tainly taught her that It was no easy task for a woman to serve two masters at one time.
 When Julia Marlowe sought proceedings against her first husband, Mr. Taber, she put in the petition intolerabe severity, assertion, and refusal to support. Miss Marowe stated that her relations with her husband were pleasant until she was IS, and then they be-

beautifully carved. They are usually pro pelled by paddles with long, thin shafts and wide blades The pygmies cut logs and scoop out their canoes with their stone axes and sharpened shells. Their only other weapons are the bows and arrows and the bone dagger which is used in killing animals for food and protecting themselves against their enemies.
 Most of them carry a haversaek slung across the shoulders In which they keep their portable property, such as sleeping mats fresticks, and rattan, which are used for kindling flame, tobacco, and odds and ends.
 They live on honey nuts, the wild pig, and other animals they hunt. They cannot count, nor do they show other traits of culture. They have anguage of their own. They are rather fierce looking because of their ugly faces and the weapons they carry at all times But they are hard to arouse

Though Fritzi Scheff has tried matrimony q second time, she was unhappy with her first husband.
 Her complaint for divorce stated that she and Von Bardeleben were married in 1903. He was an officer in the Thirteenth German hussars and resigned his commission to wed the singer. He always was referred to as Baron von Bardeeben. Their friends thought them supremely happy, for they had been sweethearts from childhood. When Miss Schef was taken seriously i'll in Cleveland the young German husband hurried to her

The shape of the head indicates low intelligence Their eyes are large. rather expressionless, and set deep. Their hands and feet are large for the rest of the body and the feet are fiat on the ground. Their ears, like the other features, are large and protrude. In resting they do not sit in the ground, but squat low, making their hips support them in much the same fashion of the chimpanzees.
 They are an extremely ugly people because of their large, fiat features and heavy short set bodies. They are not conscious of this fact and do not go out of the way to im- prove their looks. The men and women both seem fond of jewelry and srend a good deal of their time making it out of iron and ivory.
 They weigh down their ears with iron earrings. It is not unusual to find two and three earrings on an ear. The nose is fre- quently pierced with piece of boar's tusk.

~ FORGE EDwARDES says to bis L. actors and actresses: "Thou shalt N not marryl'
 This does not mean that MT. Ed wardes is opposed to all marriages. But he knows from long experience that matrimony and the stage should be divorced, because they do not mix well.
 MT. Edwardes considered the matter a long time before he decided openly to declare war on Cupid, and It was only after the little god of love had threatened entirely to disrupt his English companies that he took the step resulting in the above drastic order. "There is every reason on earth why actors and actresses should not marry" he declared. "A married actress makes bad actress The fact that a woman is an actress gives her more opportunities to get married than the average woman has. and if she happens to be star the chances are that she will wed a rich man. "That means she does not have to remain on the stage to support herself. Consequent.

 Stage Too Small for Tho Stars.
 Although Maxine Elliott and Nat Goodwin agreed to disagree quietly, their friends could not believe it. Miss Elliott gave as her req son that there was not stage large enough to hold two stars. My husband used to fly into a perfect rage" she said, "when my many admirers showered attentions on me. Likewise I was jealous when I saw him flirting with other women in the company. am sure if had given up the stage after we were married should have been happier. But could not make up my mind to do it.''
 Nobody ever has been able to say why Mary Mannering and James K. Hackett were separated. Her best friends are sure that they had happy home life and were fond of each other. It was because she learned she could not serve two masters and make n success of both.

Dress Problem Worries Them Little.

They are so uncleanly that it is hard to tell just what their natural color is. It is a sort of yellow brown. The men are desti- ute of clothes except for a yellow gourd worn about the neck and a helmetlike fiber cap.
 The dress of the women is limited to a fberlike band worn around the waist. The men and women both have woolly hair, which they wear cut close to the head. It is hard to study the women at close range, for the men are exceedingly jealous of them, especially in the presence of strangers.
 They are not wholly savage This 's shown by their skill in making canoes. These are rough but well balanced, and are

 the stone age. The race has been
 studied by A. F. R. Wollaston and is described in his new book, "Pygmies and Papuans." These pygmy folk are one of the most primitive races in existence. MT. Wollaston came upon them in his expedi- tion to New Guinea organized by the British Ornithological 1nion.
 He found a small race of people called Tapiro who were living in New Guinea just as other people dwelt many thousand years ago in the stone age. He says: Many of us think that the stone age, which, as re- cent finds under preglacial beds in East An glia evidence dates back 100000 years, has long since passed away, the extinction of the Tasmanians marking its disappear ance But in New Guinea we find our selves among tribes to whom metals are unknown, they using the shells of fresh

Taller than thc Average Pygmp.
 Like all the pygmies these people are small. The women range from feet 2 inches to feet inches, while 4 feet 3 inches is average height for the men. They are taller than the average pygmy and cleanly built, muscular and active. The calves of their legs are muscular in contrast with the long and puny legs of the Papuans and other pygmy people. This is only one of the least insignificant marks of their being a primitive people. Their features. especially the forehead and the nose, are large and fat. and their foreheads are high and receding.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-12-15

unless when their jealousy is excited because of the fear that the stranger wants their wives or some other of their belongings.
 They have peculiar way of disposing o' their dead. The body is wrapped in mats It is then placed in q rude coffin, usually constructed of broken canoes, and put on a trestle until it decomposes. These cofins are placed near the houses. The skulls are preserved and are much prized.
 Their mode of living is extraordinary, They never cultivate the ground, but wan der from place to place gathering nuts, honey, and some game. Often they hunt a wounded elephant for days, using hundreds of their little iron tipped arrows, so eager are they to get the ivory from tho tusks, which they use as money and trade for food and ornaments Their chief game are wild pigs and forest antelope. They trap them with a net and then shoot them down with their bows and arrows.

Their other ornaments are heavy iron brace lets and chains that are worn about the neck. They often carry their ornaments in small wallets around their necks.

ly she becomes independent and hard to man. age. Then perhaps she suddenly will take notion to retire from the stage. Sometimes the husband is to blame for that, but any how the result is that the leading woman breaks her contract and perhaps turns q brilliant theatrical success into a costly fail ure.
 It is usually impossible to coach another actress for the part on such short notice. That's why I am opposed to actresses and actors getting married. It certainly is net a cheerful matter to learn that the leading woman of a production that cost thousands of dollars is going to get married and leave her employer in the lurch at the most critical period in the existence of play. Yet that is what matrimony among stage folk means.
