Prince Seeks Decree.

There was great interest in the de-
layed presentation of the princes case
In Russian and French. through an in
terpreter, he told Justice Clark in the
Supreme Court yesterday that he
wanted a decree of separation.
The prince denied that his affections
had swerved from his rich and middle
aged wife TO her sterdaughter, Mss
Yvonne Gouraud, sixteen years OLD.
His indulgence in the matter OF show
ing attention TO the girl, he said, was
at the special request of the princess
and was to keep the young woman from
taking her life, which she had threat
ened to do unless she received these
attentions.
As to suggesting a divorce that me
might marry his wife's adopted dauyh-
ter, that idea, the prince explained,
was born in the mind Of his wife, who
had suggested such course TO him.
But he spurned it,

Was it pleasant occupation?"
"No, sir, it was very tiresome," he
replied

The prince said he did actually save
Yvonne's life by taking revolver
from her. with which she intended 10
kill herself.
Princess Miskinof and Miss Gouraud
calmly listened to the pointed answers
which the prince gave 10 questions.
The princess. who is bringing a coun-
ter claim for separation, was no more
pcrturbed over being called Mrs. or

band than he was when called Mr..

THE PEAR AND CHERRY
SlUGS COME TWICE A YEAR

The pear slug. that Shiny, greenish-
black object, much like an animated
mass. of jelly. is now busy feeding upon
the leaves of the pear and cherry.
There are two broods of the pear
slug. one would have been plenty. but
we have two broods to fight. This sec
ond brood which we have now hatch
from eggs laid by very small black
fly.
The slug will continue to eat for two
or three weeks more, then it will go
into the ground and hibernate until
next spring. when it will pupate and
emerge as fly. which will start the
pear slug on its way next year.
Some growers are afraid the slugs
will eat the fruit buds. 1t is not like
ly they will eat enough buds to affect
next years crop. but every leaf that
a slug eats is taking away from the
vigor of the tree. The leaves OF a
tree manufacture its food and hence
every leaf that is eaten takes tha,
much away from the tree.
