it statewide matter before the new

The first husband was Richard Nor.
rison Rogers. They were married on
February Is, 1904, and lived together
until April 10, 1905 On the latter date
Rogers left New York for Mexico.
Being unable to hear from him and
believing him dead. the woman mar
ried O'Neill. 1t was not until recently
that she learned that Rogers was
alive.
Consequently she asked that the

SOCIALISTS PLAN FIGHT
ON BRYAN PRIMARY LAW.
Employ Attorneys to Garry Their Con.
tentions Before Florida's Su-
preme Court.

Miami.-Unconstitu of the
new Bryan primary law, drafted by
United States Senator N. P. Bryan
and passed by the last session of the
state legislature, is claimed by the
Socialists of Florida, who, according
to John Gillette of Miami, one of the
Socialist chieftains, will attempt to es-
tablish the alleged unconstitutionality
of the law. Mr.. Gillette says that his
party has employed some of the best
lawyers in the state to handle the case
for them, and that they are now en-
gagged in dissecting the law preparato-
ry to going before the Supreme court
for final jurisdiction.
1t is not considered probable that
any action will be taken prior to the
primary, and it is limited that a nom
ination under the primary will be a
necessary step in getting the matter
before the high court. After the pri-
mary, it is said that action will be
taken to get the name Of some nomi.
nee off the ballot on the ground that
he was illegally nominated, claiming
that nomination under the Bryan law
is illegal.
Socialists throughout the state will
be assessed to pay the lawyers and
the cost consequent upon taken the

"TEN0RS ARE QUEER"
Old Time Opera Stars as Seen by Clara
Louise Kellogg.


In The Memoirs of an American
Prima Donna" by Clara Louise Kel-
logg, the author tells Of her triumph as
Violetta in "Traviata." She argued
that Violetta would probably love curl,
GUS and exotic combinations, so she
dressed the part In gown of rose pink
and pale primrose yellow that seemed
to be altogether enchanting.
"Apropos of the Violetta gowns,
sang the part during one season with
a tenor whose hands were always
dirty. found the back Of my pretty
frocks becoming grimier and grimier
and greasier and greasier, and, as 7
provided my own gowns and had to be
economical, | finally came to the con-
clusion that l could not and would not
afford such wholesale and continual
ruin. So | sent my compliments to
monsieur and asked him please to be
extra careful and particular about
washing his hands before the perform
ance, as my dress was very light and
delicate, etc.-Qulte polite message

however, was entirely wasted on HIM.

reply:

soap for the rest of the season. This
was cheaper than buying new clothes.
