NO BIG WORDS GO WITH HODGES
Will Give Abilene Senior Glass Some
Practical Advice.

The senior class of the Abilene
high school will hear some real
practical advice from Governor
Hodges when he comes here to de-
liver his commencement Address.
Governor Hodges is not a believer
in flights or oratory or elegant
phrases. The governor is going to
make several speeches this year to
high school graduates and he Is
planning to tell them that "hitchins
their wagon to a star" is not nearly
SO good as taking part in the good
roads movement.
The governor has had about twen-
ty-five Invitations to make the COM
mencement addrtss to the Kansas
high school graduates, but he could
only accept five: He will speak to
the graduates at Eldorado, Great
Bend, Pratt, Abilene and Effing-
ham.

CAUSE or DIVORCES
is UNDER EDUCATION.
sfrs. whartOn Talked on Marriage
Ideas.

Mrs. Marion Wharton gave an In
terestIng address in the Presbyter-
ian church last evening on MAR
rage and Divorce" Mrs. Wharton
is touring the country on q propa-
ganda or reform putt by a maya
zine called Prophylaxis and her
meetings are open to all with the
exception OF the Saturday afternoon
meeting when she will speak to
women only.
Last nights lecture was upon mar
rage and divorce. AS her first point
Mrs. Wharton dwelt with the affinity
as II exists In nature. She first gave
an illustration by chemical affinity
and followed with the higher steps.
The next step higher she gave as
the affinity between plants In which
we first have the sexes represented
with nature using the winds, insects,
etc, as the fertilizing mediums.
The next step higher we have the
animal kingdom in which the affinity
is shown by instinct.
The highest step is that exemph-
fled by human love. Mrs. Wharton
pointed out the difference between
the human and the brute. She said
the difference is that the animal
knows but does not know that ne
knows while the human knows and
knows that he knows. She gave
love, as an illustration of this point
and said that affinity is God given
as God is love. She also dwelt upon
the fact of love being the highest
attribute that exists. Along this
line Mrs. Wharton said that there
is no excuse flor lust because rela-
ton Of sexes is only through love.
Next she dwelt upon the differ
ence between man and woman and
the two great processes which they
represent. Mrs. Wharton said that
man is the nutritive process as the
wage Garner and provider, while the
woman represents the reproductive
element caring for the family and
raising II to maturity. She empha-
sized the fact that of all the great
professions, home making is the
greatest and is given the least at
tention in our schools and colleges
and that in many instances there is
a weaving away from the home and
that we must revert back to the
Education in the home. Mrs. Whar-
ton said further that we must pre-
pare the child for its position In
society.
The next step of the lecture was
the liability of people taking the
wrong views on the sexual phasS and
social position through misnnder-
standing. Mrs. Wharton said that
the process of reproduction which
is the most important and supreme
in nature and in which all love cul-
inmates Is looked upon askant with
false modisty in our society. Fur
Their Mrs. Wharton said that in the
social phase there is tendency for
both man and woman to get the
wrong view point OF life after mar
riage and that there is practically
no education on home making and
the rearing Of a family in the home
and consequently the young people
go into marriage blindly. Mrs. Whar-
ton said that 1t was due to these
two things that we have an increase
| in divorce and the present statistics
show that there is one divorce In
every fifteen marriages. According
to Mrs. Wharton the solution OF the
divorce question is not in legisla-
ton but in the preparing OF the
young for marriage.

China's new coat of arms, while
marking n departure from the legend

how the old ideas are embodied in a
new form. The design has been semi
officially explained in the following
words:
China has selected grain as an emb-
lem, to which are added the sun, moon
and stars, signifying light; mountain
signifying command; dragon muta-
bility; pheasant, culture; sacritcal
cups, iilial pietyi aquatic grass, purity
flames, Brightness grains of rice, nur

authorities.
Tho larger part Of the army officers
connected with the division Of military
information are now in the Moro coun.
try. having been ordered down when
the trouble FIRST grew serious during the
first week in February. Captain Pyle
is In charge, and Is using several Of the
spies formerly used bv Francis Young.
formerly sheriff OF the Jolo district,
and whose MIRO secret agents finally
located Jikiri. the famous outlaw, in
the cave on the small island where he
was killed by the military forces.
Case Of Treachery.
At least one case of treachery has
been discovered, however, among these
spies, and one of them, Panglima In
donan. who assisted in the attempted
disarmament, has, with his two. sons,
been sentenced to hang for his double
dealing, which included the murder of
fellow spy.
Gunrunning still continues, says the
gentleman giving the information, as it
has for the past FIVE or SIX years, and
not only are arms and ammunition be-
ing brought in, but Chinese immigrants,
opium and other contraband goods are
being landed from swift sailing vintas,
unchecked by the slower customs and
army launches. Sulu Moros, living in
Sandakan, are the go-betweens, while
the actual work of transporting the
goods is done by Bajao Moros, the
pirate and fisherman class.
These facts are known to practically
every American living in Jolo, and are
great source of worriment to the Gus
toms officials, who have attempted tc
secure other agents from Manila, who
might be more efficient, as not being
so well known. The smugglers have
been bold enough, on occasion, to land
shipments of arms at NAHUM, the place
of residence of the Sultan.
The censorship still continues, and al
present even cablNgrams from Other
points to Jolo are received "subject t.
delay" which, it is understood, is &
polite way of saying "nothing doing

two officers were placed on guard this morning over the ruined section of the pler They were instructed to keen watch constantly, in 12-hour shifts. until relieved by the grand jury, and to allow no tampering with any part of the structure that collapsed and dropped several hundred merrymallers down d funnel of jagged timbers and boards to the strand within a few feet of the ocean tides. Several broken tlmbers which are expected to show the general condition of the pier, and thus aid in developing evidence of neg ligence, if there be any, were taken out of the pier today and locked up under official seal
 Tremendous Strain on Supports.
 The weakness of tho pier, which was built eight years ago. and never re- paired in that particular portion, is be- lieYed to have been due to decay caused by the action of salt air on wood and Its iron fastenings and sup ports. However 1t was declared that a much stronger structure might have been wrecked in the same circum- stances as the participants in the big parade marched upon the pier in step. Military men pointed out that th5 rhythmic vibration created by the measured tread of thousands of feet caused a tremendous strain upon the supports, which already had been heavily burdened by the crowd thronged about the auditorium doors awaiting admittance.
 Claims City is Not Liable.
 The grand jury investigation was demanded by the officers of the united societies of British-born residents and visitors whose celebration of Queen Victoria's birthday anniversary was interrupted by the accident. City At torney Long answered reports of the prospective damage suits with the statement that in his opinion the city could not be held responsible for deaths and injuries because no charges had been made by the city for the use of the municipal amusenentS property. Use of the pier and auditorium had been given without cost and the cele- orators, he said, had used it at their own risk
 About e5 Seriously Injured.
 All but the most seriously injured were removed to their homes in Los Angeles and neighboring cities today.
 The total number of injured prob ably never will be known accurately. About 65, however, were seriously hurt.
