Wife IN name ONLY
Marriage for Money and Title
Turns Out to Be a Real
Love Affair.
BY GEORGE MuNsoN.

All London society was whispering
and questioning, for Lord Rensley
was Of his way home to England after
an absence Of a year. He had shot
tigers IN India, had speared salmon
in Alaska, and hunted grizzlies in the
wilds Of western Canada. And all
the while Lady RensIey had kept open
house at the Abbey. Now he was
expected home; he would arrive in
two weeks, Actually he arrived a
week earlier and Unexpectedly.
They had been married nearly three
years before. Lady Rensley had been
Miss Edith Kane, of Cleveland, ind
her father was one of the twelve
richest men in America, The mar
riage had been considered s~ingularly
fortunate, for the Rensley family
dated back five hundred years-though
not the title, and his lands were ex-
tensive, although Improbable. Miss
kane's dowry would restore the old
abbey and enable her husband and
herself to assume their rightful place
in the social hierarchy. And so
Rensley had won the beauty of Cleve-
land.
This is what happened three hours
a ter the marriage: He and his bride
were face to face in their apartments
at the Eversley hotel. The bride
drew off her engagement ring medlta-
lively and handed it ~ him and said,
without a trace Of passion:
Il shall wear my marriage ring, but
not this. The bargain lie an equal one
and am satisfied. You will never
have cause to be ashamed of me in the
ayes of the world. Goodnight, Lord
Rensley."
You mean" he asked, that our
marriage is to be one In name only?"
Why, what else did you expect?''
she answered m~ockingly, though her
lip was Quivering. You never loved
me. You sought me for my fortune,
as l you for your title" And 80 she
turned away and they said no more.

Then Rensley entered the conserva-

They are 50 obvious that we do
not believe there is a thinking
citizen anywhere who would
dream Of the possibility Of his be-
comlng Secretary of State for
any ether reason than is afford
ed by his merely partisan and
personal relations with the in
coming Administration.
If the pliuacy of the Cabinet
Is Offered to him it will be be-
'auSc he has been thrice defeat
ed for President; because he is
a conspicuous figure, with a con-
siderable following, in the De-
mocracy at present because he
Is yet able, if offended or slight
ed, to occasion a good deal Of
trouble to the Wilson Admins
t%ratlcn, and, perhaps, because
Mr.. Wilson feels himself under
more or less obligation to Mr..
Bryan for What occurred at Bal
timorc.
If the post Of Secretary of
Stat is accepted by Mr.. Bryan
it w ! not be because he yearns
for the opportunity to test his
diplomatic genius in the pres
ence of all the chancelleries. but
because he wants to leep him
self IN the fright light Of pub
llcity for the next four years,
to have the opportunity to speak
to the President and to the party
and to the world through a more
effective megaphone than the
Commoner, to be on hand when
discussions arise as to the bind
ing force OF the single term
plank in the Baltimore platform.
In short, rho doubts that if Mr..
Bry II takes this place at the
council mahogany Of the Wilson
Administration it will be not so
much in order that he may sit
at the Presidents right as in
order that the President shall
sit at his left, within striking
range Of his aquiline eye.
Most djsinterested observes
will foresee in a relation of this
sort sure disaster either to DR..
Wilson or to Mr.. Bryan, and
perhaps to both. That, how
ever, IS OF comparatively small
Importance. The grave con-
Germ of the American people
is with the possibility that for
such personal and partisan rea-
sons on incoming President, in
the exercise Of one of the first
and one of the most serious re
sponsibilities of his entire term,
may deliberately entrast the
Department of State to so ig-
norant and SO rhetorical and 50
unfit a person as is Mr.. Bryan

An Imminent Public Calamity.

slbillties, Jue Hon. William j.
BryGl is about as well fitted to
be secretary Of State as a cherub
is 10 skate or a norman to play
football. The intellectual make
up OF the distinguished Demo
crat ends where the special fac
ulties required for that particu-
lar post Of usefulness and re
sponsibility begin. 1t is in no
spiri5 Of hostility or even Of over
fastidiousness that we call at
tentlon to his superlative dis
qualifications for the office to-
ward which he seems now to be
propelled by an unreasoning
Destiny. Every man of judg-
ment and common sense-except,
perhaps, the Hon. Woodrow Will
son knows hat what we are
about to say Of Mr.. Bryan is
true.
Tie appointment Of Counsellor
Bryan to be Attorney-General in
the { abinet Of President Wilson
might find some faint support in
theoretical availability, although
he would not enter the Depart
menJ Of Justice handicapped by
any excessive weight of profess
slonal renown or prestige, The
appointment Of Colonel Bryan
as Secretary of War might not
stril2 every mind as a bowling
absuudity, although his military
experience has been Emitted to a
uniform, a sword and a moving
picture camera. Even the nom
inaticn of SiXteen-to-On Bryan
as Secretary of the Treasury,
~replusive as the idea is in the
ligh5 of 1896, might be advocated
with sincerity by some of his
admirers; he has at least talked
a good many million words on
the subject Of bimetalism, and
is TO that extent a financier.
The nomination of Farmer Bryan
to be Secretary Of Agriculture, if
it is indispensable that he shall
sit in the Cabinet, would posi-
lively be hailed as an elegant
fit IN contrast with this appalI-
ing alternative; for that job
would be sympathetic to his soul
and he must have gained exper-
ience and special knowledge
through his Texas investments.
But wh"l 1T comes to propos-
ing tdat Ml William j. Bryan,
the political product of the crown
of tnorns md cross of gold met
aphor, shall take charge eff the
international relations Of the
Government and direct its dip

Columbus, o., Feb. ll.-GeO.
B. Cox, formerly boss of Cincin-
natl, maker of judges, congress
men, governors and u. S. sena-
tors, is now shorn of all his power
and will be tried on a charge of
perjury.
In 1906 a Cincinnati grand jury
investigated graft in the county
treasurer's office, and Rud Hy-
nicki, one of Cox's lieutenants,
returned over 100000 graft
which he had grabbed as interest
from banks on county funds.
Boss Cox was indicted for per-
jury But Judge Dickinson, who
had been placed on the bench by
Cox, paid his political debt by |
quashing the Indictment.
The present mayor of Cincin- |
natl, Harry Hunt, was then coun--
ty prosecuting attorney, AS such
he objected to the action of the
Cox-made judge and carried the
matter to the supreme court 1t |
has dragged there ever since.
In the emantime the old Stand |
ard Oil supreme court has been |
turned inside out by the election
of four Democratic. and one Bull
Moose judge; and this court to-
day sustained Prosecutor Hunts
objection to Judge Dickenson'S
quashing of the Cox indictments.
This paves the way for a rein
dictment of Cox for perjury in
Cincinnati; and in the meantime
his judges there have been kicked
off the bench by the people of
Hamilton county, and he can no
