MARRIAGE OF DIVORCES
OPPOSED BY CLERGYMEN
Movement in Pennsylvania for Com
bination Of Ministers Against
the Custom.

CARLISLE, Pa, September 1U.-Clergy-
men Of this city have started q move
ment to line up the clergy Of the entire
state in opposition to the remarriage Of
divorced persons. The plan provides that
ministers shall sign an agreement not
to perform q marriage ceremony In a
case where either one Of the contracting
parties has been divorced. A committee
was app ointed to prepare a petition to
the local clerk Of the courts requesting
him to indicate on the marriage license
furnished to ministers whether or not
either Of the parties contemplating mat
rimony had been divorced. This is not
required by the state law now. but can
be done at the option Of the marriage
license clerk.
May Except Innocent Parties.
The ministers will, however, probably
provide an exception in the case Of per
sons who can furnish to them under oath
evidence including transcript on the
order Of the court showing them to be
the innocent party.
A committee will sound all the menl-
bers of the clergy In this county, and
if anything like unanimous approval Is Sc
cured the whole state will be awakened
to the necessity of the Pennsylvania
clergy taking such a stand Jointly on
the divorce evil.

ASTONISHING Coiffures.

Coiffures are to be high again, but
not so high as in the past. Formerly
doorways had to be heightened to &C.
commodate the eighteenth century
woman of fashion. Marie Antoinette's
hairdresser had to mount a stool in
order to get above his work Women
Of that time had to kneel in their
coaches to get their head covering in
side, or drive with their heads out
Of the windows. Nine de Genlis was
caught by her hair while fastening
to greet Voltaire at Ferny, but es-
capped Absalom's fate, her hair re-
naming on the Dough. And the Ouch
ess de Chartres had room on her hair
one evening for a miniature man-of-
war in full sail, on another for a rep
resentation of her little son, Louis
Philippe, sleeping in the lap of his
nurse.

Recipe for making Jokes.

There is nothing any easier than
writing jokes. Simply jot down your
ideas for the jokes, say two or three
hundred, on slip of paper; then seat
yourself before a typewriter. Feed
blank paper into the typewriter and
inject the ideas through your finger
tips into the keys. Continue to do
this until all of the ideas on the slip
are exhausted, then gather up the
jokes, which have piled themselves
into heap on the opposite side of the
typewriter, send them to editors and
receive your checks. A couple of
hours day spent in this manner
should bring you in revenue enough
to support wife and nine children,
run six-cylinder touring car and buy
bonbons for soul-mate. Try it.

Bees Addicted to "Dope."

Just add this one to all the queer
things that have happened in the year
of grace 1913 and believe it's true, be-
cause w. E. Baker, deputy auditor of
the state of Ohio, says he can prove
1t.
The honey bees near Fostoria, which
is Bakers home town, have contract
ed the opium habit. Like the Chinese,
they get theirs from the poppy. Bak-
er and many other residents of Fos-
toria grow oriental peoples.
The bees have found this out, and
of late they are leaving acres of
clover blossoms to hunt out the poppy
beds. They work very vigorously for
an hour or SO and then fall to the
ground apparently as stupefed as are
opium smokers after hitting the
pipe. (Ohio) dispatch to

The camp Is full of unexpected
meetings. Every day brings forth nu-
merous meetings between men who
have not seen one another for many
years. Many are commonplace, but
some are extraordinary. For in
stance, here is one:
l. d. Munsee of Erie county, Penn
sylvania, soldier in the 111th Penn
sylvania, was captured by the con-
federates at Peachtree Greek, Ca,
when he was one Of Shermans army
on the celebrated march to the sea.
He was being conveyed to the rear
by a confederate soldier when the
union batteries opened fire upon the
party among whom he was a pris-
oner The man who was guarding
Munsee was hit and fell, knocking
Munsee down and lying on top of
him.
Seeing his chance of escape, Mum
see lay very still under the uncon-
scious confederate while the battle
ragged around them. That night he
slipped from under the body and es-
capped to the union lines.
II thought that fellow was dead"
said Munsee, "but l saw him today.
Poor fellow, his minds bad, and he
didn't recognize me, but was sure of
him. l couldn't even get his name, but
I'm goin over later to the Georgia
camp and try to find out who he is"
One of the most interesting places
In camp was the lost and found bu-
reau, located under the benches In the
big tent. Everything found on the
grounds was brought there and thou
sands applied every day for missing
articles.
There were at least 100 crutches
piled up in the bureau dozen or so ap-
plicants having called for them Those
who come to redeem their lost
clutches seldom can recognize them
and most Of them go away with some
body elses.
There was one wooden leg also ly-
ing unclaimed. 1t was brought In by
a Boy Scout, who had found it under
tree.
Several sets of false teeth were
found.
A grandson of Francis Scott Kew,
composer of "The Star-Spangled Ban
ner,". is here. He is John Francis Key.
aged eighty-two, of Pikeville, Md, and
he is veteran Of the Second Mary
land infantry of the confederate army.
Wearing suit of gray, Key came
into town, weak and almost dropping
He has been in failing health, but de.
clared he was going to see Gettys-
burg on this occasion or die"
One of the oldest veterans in the
big camp Is Captain w. H. Fleig of
Houston, Texas, who was ninety years
of age on his last birthday, February
% During the war he served with
distinction in the marine department
of the confederate navy. Captain
Fleig is one of the best preserved
men in camp and is more active than
many Of the other veterans a score of
years less advanced.
Wearing a tattered uniform OF
gray, Alexander Hunt of Virginia was
the central point of interest on the
streets Of the town. Mr.. Hunter was
wearing the identical suit and hat
which he wore at Gettysburg fifty
years ago.
The suit was in rags and has bullet
hole through one of the sleeves He
carried all his accoutrements used at
Gettysburg and wore a union belt
taken from foe here. Mr.. Hunter
was member of the Black Horse cav
airy.
