CALLS
HER KIN SHORTY,
WIFE'S CHARGE
She Gets Divorce on Testimony
That Mate SWOre and
Was Stingy.

LOS ANGELES, Calf, July 15.-FoI
once at least Mrs. Dorothy e Miller
handsome daughter of wealthy Bal
timore merchant got something her
husband did not want her to have. II
was a divorce granted by Superior
Judge Wood, from Edwin S. Miller, a
real estate man.
During their thirteen years Of mar
ried life, Mrs. Miller told Judge Wood
her husband had dictated to her how
much she should spend, where and
when she should go and what friends
would visit at their home. She also
accused him OF saying many disagree
able things about her relatives.
Miller Denies Charges.
Miller entered a sweeping denial
He said that most Of the bad language
used in the home was uttered by MIS-.
Miller. The parsimony with which she
charged him, he said, consisted solely
OF an effort on his part to break his
wife Of habits Of extravaganza.
AS to his alleged efforts to dictate
where his wife should go, he said he
was simply trying to break up her
friendship with persons he considered
undesirable as friends. From three
to I'VE times a week, he said, Mrs. Mill
Ter was away from home, neglecting
him and their child.
Practically Called Her Liar.
He admitted having made objections
to certain of her relatives. He de-
scribed them as a sporty bunch" and
declared that one In particular invad-
ed the exclusive apartment house in
which they lived, collarless, slippered
and carrying a can Of beer.
Because Of the confederation to the
testimony offered by Mrs. Miller, Judge
Wood said he was forced to believe
her, He could not doubt, he said, that
the husband had at times used disa-
sreeable language, because on the
witness stand he had practically called
her liar,
In addition to a decree Mrs. Miller
was granted custody OF their young
daughter and $50 a month alimony.

If you were the producer of
trade-marked article at standard
price and economic conditions the
world over became so disturbed as to
cause unprecedented advances in the
cost Of raw materials, thereby placing
you in position where you had to
choose between reducing the quality Of
your product or raising the price?
Would you go into the market and
buy lot of cheap, shoddy material and
turn out product vastly inferior to
your standard at the old price and at
tempt to make your customers believe
that you were doing the impossible by
keeping up your old Standard
OR OK
Would you come out frankly and
openly, explaining to the people the
true state of affairs, showing them that
rather than cheaper your product
built up after years Of hard and diigent
effort, you would raise the price an
amount sufficient only to cover the In
creased cost of production and main
tain absolutely your high standard Of

Turkeys Unhappy Plight.

Persistent reports are coming from
various quarters, chiefly, however, from
those interested in the allied success.
that the Turks are heartily tired of
their participation in the war and are
showing a disposition to break away
from their alliance with the Teutonic
powers. This feeling, it is reported, has
become especially acute since the Rus
sian successes in Asia Minor, which con-
stitute an actual menace to the security
of the Turkish capital. Unconfirmed re-
ports were recently circulated of the
assassination of Enver Bey, who is prac-
tically the ruler of Turkey today, the
sultan being mere fgurehead. Later
reports tell of rioting in Constantinople
and of the spread of the spirit of mu-
tiny among the troops. The most re-
cent contribution to this budget of
rumors is that Turkeys resources are
practically exhausted and that tentative
representations have been made. through
Intern ediaries, to Russia for q cessa-
ton of hostilities. But Turkey cannot

the allies so long as her armies are prac-
tically under the command Of German

officers and while German troops are
present in Constantinople unless Tur-
key, seeking peace with Russia, Is pre-
pared to defend herself against new
enemy, her recent ally. In any circum-
stances, Turkey cannot gain state of
peace by merely making terms with
Russia. There is hard fighting to be
done either against the Russians advanc-
ing through Asia Minor or the central
powers present, whose forces are at
Turkish borders and in considerable
numbers within Turkish territory. Rus
sia will never consent to any peace that
stops short of the opening of the Oar
danelles to commerce and to the pas
sage of warships of the entente pow
ers. Turkey is, in fact, the nut between
the jaws of the cracker, and her par
ticipation in the war as Germany's ally
has involved responsibilities and obliga-
tions and particularly dangers that can
not now be eliminated. The elements
of this situation were established many
years ago, when German influence be-
came paramount at Constantinopic.

a delegate from the Lone Star state ap-

Here would be three "The Three
Guardsmen" of the republican party
one for all, and all for Theodore Roose-
velt Suppose in close contest these
three, with others recruited by them
from lower southern states, should turn
the scale in Mr.. Roosevelt's favor, and
he should thus emerge the nominee.
What would be the effect in such states

On personal grounds Mr.. Roosevelt
has many admirers in the lower south.
Hut they were unable to render him
any assistance in 1904, and they would
be quite as helpless this year. He
could not as the republican nominee
