EIGHTH OF WEDDINGS
ON PACIFIC END WITH
DEGREES OF DIVORCE

Los ANGELES, Jan. Eff after
swearing by all the stars, your love
will never die, you stand up before a
solemn looking minister and promise TO
love, and all the rest, the chances are
better than to that you'll be di-
vorced in a few short years. That is
what statistics show.
The fifteenth biennial report Of the
bureau of labor statistics, compiled by
John p Mclaughlin, state labor com
missioner. shows that the number of d.
vorces has increased more rapidly than
marriages during the past six years.
with 2s,967 marriage licenses issued in
California, there We're 1853 final de-
crecs Of divorce ground out by the
courts. which means that there were
1876 per cent as many divorces as mar
rages.

Terrible Tragedies
Narrowly Averted.

This is not a humorous tale.
ozone of them really are humorous,
hut persons who write them like TO think
IT. 50 be geuueD
This really is a stern moral lecture. An
instruction in the savoirfaire of telephon-
ing II is drawn from the very justii-
able TRADE of an Atlanta business man,
who stormed down from his office in the
Gambler building the other day with blood
in his eye and anger in his heart Alto
Eethcr, he was nigh overloaded with this
unwonted freight, for usually his couu-
tenance is cherubic and serenely good
natured.
Said he:
"Why in the name Of things unholy
don't people learn how to telephone? I
had call just now. Stuck my ear to the
receiver
Who's that?' demanded the party at
the other end
1T made me mad all over Why in the
world can't they decenty ask for the
person they want, or find out If they have
the right number or inquire If their par
ty is in? But this shouting out Who's
that? gets my goat
1T happened in this case that this man
had the wrong number / fixed i'm be-
fore he rang off, though. Told him it
was none Of HIS darned business who this
was, and asked him who he wanted. Gee,
but he was sore"
At the recollection OF the other fellow S
soreness, his cheruhic smile returned.
Then II disappeared, and he asked again,
but why don't they learn something,
any how"

WIFE WRECKS OFFICE
OF SUSPECTED MATE;
HE GIVES BAIL FOR HER

CHICAGO. Jan. 27.-Charges of dis
orderly conduct were lodged today
against Mrs. Genevieve yawter. wife of
w. z. Vawter, official of an automobile
manufacturing company, following an
invasion of her husbands office by the
wife. Vawter was not in his Office, as
his wife supposed. when she called. She
is said to have been jealous. Forcing
her way into the Office, she smashed
furniture and scattered papers about
until employees in the place called the
police. When the officers arrived, they
found the woman barricaded in the Of
fee. They used threats and entreaties
in an effort to get her to come out, but
she refused. Finally they removed the
door from the hinges, seized the wom-
an and took her to the police station.
Later her husband furnished bail, say
ing his wife was very nervous and not
accountable for her actions.

Commander Inch of the Velturno.

Judging from all present reports Of the
voiturno disaster, Commander Inch of
that vessel played the hero's part and de-
serves the highest praise for his mastery
handling OF desperate situation. He IS
just thirty-one years of age, this steam
ship captain, one of the youngest men
who holds masters commission In the
transatlantic service. But years do not
count for everything when the crisis
comes. Inch had before him three perils,
lire, gale and panic. Before he could get
things under control the crew had rushed
the boats and taken two or three and suf-
fered the penalty of disobedience through
the crushing OF the frail craft against
the sides Of the ship in the storm. But
with pistol in hand Inch regained control
and stood for hours on the bridge direct
ing the work of fire lighting and prepa-
rations for escape from the inferno. He
ordered the boats cut loose to prevent
further rushes from the ship. He kept
the wireless sparkling forth messages of
appeal that brought a fleet of rescuers,
which. however, were irnpotent to do
much for some hours. 1t was Capt. Barr
of the Carmania who finally saved the
situation. After trying to still the waters
by means of the oil he carried on his own
ship without effect. he thought of sum-
moning tank steamer, and wireless word
went forth for the nearest oil cargo ship
to hasten to the scene. Luckily one
was within call, and by use OF its oil 1t
broke down the waves to such an extent
that il was possible for the survivors on
the Volturno to be taken OF. Inch was
last To leave his burning vessel. During
those terrible hours he had stood upon a
literally burning deck" Like Jim Bled-
soe.' ne held To his post till the last ga
loot got OFF. But fortunately, unlike
Jim Bledsoe," he was himself saved, and

surely his for meeting the demands of
duty in a manly way, without fear of
death, without compromise.

From the New York World.
The tributes TO Verdi in ,conection WITH
the celebration of the hundredth ahniYer-
sary of his birth, duplicate and repeat the
Wagner tributes of last May. II the year
1913 had no other claim to distinction as
n wonderful year. the name would ) be
deserved by the fact that it gave to the
world the two great masters of opera.
To think Of what opera would be. wlthout
Verdi-opera without "Trovatore,' IRA.
viata," Aida" and 'Rigoletto, oteiio
and .Falstaff"-is to gain reaizlne
sense of what the centennial of the italian
composers birth means to all music-lov-
ers, and particularly to the vast constitr
uency of opera-goers. And. to consider
further what opera would be wltnout
"Lohengrin,' "Tannhauser tristan uhq
Isolde" the '.Meistersinger" and the
Ring" is to appreciate how fully Nerdl
and Wagner were the joint creators oil
modern opera.
