ton of six years, which followed thirty
years of married life, John F. Sebree
field clerk of the United States army
and brother of Admiral Sebree, and
Mrs. Nellie SebTee were REMARKED
yesterday by Judge Stanford
Differences of years have worn away
and the distinguished looking attache
of the civil service department and his
beautiful and gracious wife frankly ad-
mitted that the happiest time of their
lives were ahead Of them. Their honey
moon will be brief. Mr.. Sebree will be
compelled to leave for San Antonio
tonight to report and Mrs SeDree must
return to the California coast to re-
main a member Of the faculty of the
San Diego NORMAL school until her sue
cessor is appointed. Then she will join
her husband wherever he may be sta
toned.
The Sebrees were divorced six years
ago, and in that time they have learned
to better appreciate the worth Of each
other. 1t was a happy couple who dis
cussed the future in fiowerdecked
apartments of the Adams yesterday.
In charming afternoon frock of
black relieved with a touch OF white in
eXqusitely embroidered batiste, and
wearing pearls that were especially
becoming Mrs. Sebree made an attrac-
tive picture as she spoke of her great
joy. She pictured the surprise of her
Snr whom she declared would be de-
lighted at the turn of affairs. The son,
in Chicago where he is connected with
a large mercantile establishment, was
unaware that his father and mother
were TO be re-nlarried which was quite
natural since they themselves had not

the first time in years on Monday.
Mr.. Sebree arranged the meeting,
asking Mrs. Sebree with whom he has
been in correspondence since their
separation. to meet him in Phoenix for
conference. She agreed to pass her
Easter vacation here and the culmina-
ton OF the conference was the quiet
| wedding in Judge Stanford's chambers.
Mr.. Sebree, until the border trouble
made Chicago his headquarters. He is
/ in San Antonio at present and his
plans for the future depend solely on
advices from Washington.

THE SAFETY FIRST PATROL.

The Philadelphia Rapid Transit Company has recently enlisted school boys iii its work of spreading safety first" information habits among school children. A patrol" has been organized with badges and pledges and definite duties. The youngsters to be respOn sible for themselves and their fellows They will CO., operate with the police in their effort train pedestrians in common and caution.
 That's the to make any movement really effective. Get the people whom it reach working it for themselves and the thing The best way to keep boy from hopping street is make him respoE- sible for his gang" He'll keep everybody else away from this dangerous pastimc, and hell keep away him self
 The Philadelphia company began its patrol through selfinterest But it the enlightened selfIntcrcst that realizes the value of constructive policies Every bodys going to profit by this scheme, which will have direct and humane influence the community as well decrease accidents for the company.
 Signals and warnings and countless admonitions to watch for trolley crossings automobiles and all the other traffic that makes streets dangerous. would accomplish the good that will result from this simple method

EXTRAVAGANCE.

The American people admittedly extravagant And it's fine thing to preach thrift But it's hard follow Senator McCumber all the way when he condemns us for spending s13OOO 100000 year tobacco liquor automobiles and other amusements"
 No doubt might save billions on liquor and tobac- co, to physical and moral benefit well as tn, benefit of bank No doubt. too there's much foolish extravaganza in automobiles But the bulk of the automobile business if except the in valuable motor truck, would probably be set down by an economist useful and necessary rather than wascru and indugent For nearly every other in the "ex travagance" list at least partial justification may be found.
 We could do without candy and ice cream, bu. Cley nutritious food. We could do without flowers and pictures, without drama and music and icton-but do we want to? Have right to "amusemcnts"? Is there place rational life for recreation and for occasional expenditures what may seem m them selves foolish indugenccs?
 Physical and mental relaxation alike necessary if the human machine is to go working smoothly And the spiritual expansion that with doing tde ec- casiona thing that "canaiord' do has it's utili- tartan value. The pleasure the sense of freedom it brings stimulus to better work

THE TWO SAlEMS.

Salem Ore, has made characteristcaly modest re- of Salem Mass The manager of the former citys commercial club writes the mayor of the Massachu setts city follows:
 Your town being of the same name, it naturally draws from us, and think it would be good thing i: you would kindly take it up with your citizens and change the name of your town"
 This communication might have been expected to give Mayor Benson, however, makes this dignifed recrt the upstart western rival:
 When your little community reaches population of 5O,OO0 and valuation that will place you in the same class with our small cities of the East; in short when city has reached the size that your managers and confidence have already reached. We will advise ycu then to change the of your city; for there might be confusion in having the name, and you would ask the venerable mother of all the Salems in the country change her the behest of enterprsng and hustling name sake"
 The eastern mayor have a shade the better of the argument But Salem Ore, may be given credit for starting something in the way of a publicity scheme-whch probably the real purpose of the proposal Any community bearing a name rendered ia nous by some older community step into the lime light by making similar demand.
 Cairo, Ill., may ask Cairo Egypt get another name. Rome N. Y- may file claim against Rome Italy. Athens, o. tor Ga. Tenn.), may challenge the right of the old Greek city to its title Paris, Ky, can make good against the French capital. Babylon, L. l., has obvious grievance against cient Babylonan city And New England itself as Boston happily suggests, may demand that old England adopt name.

THE BUSINESS SITUATION.

There has been storm lately the stock exchange. And has cleared the Fictitious, speculative values created by orders and excited imagnations have blown away There is nothing alarming about the drop in the price of stock issues they have merely got down nearer normal basis
 Some of them will have to drop further But there is expectation of panic on the approach of peace if the should end suddenly. The influence of peace American industry and commerce has already been largely discounted For many months the war or ders have lessening in volume. Their place has by other commodities supplied to the foreign market which there is expected to be lessened demand when peace comes, and by the manufacture o goods to satisfy the strong domestic demand.
 Peace is regarded but few months away. And the few months will therefore a steady readjustment the new conditions. There will of course be speculative urries, in which lambs ventur ing into Wall Street will be shorn But according the experts the public is done with it's speculative frenzy buying safe investment instead of taking chances
 It's investment market And the financial authority of the New York World says that the wisest of these investors going in for such standard ities oil, steel and copper shares and to slightly less railroad issues since they likely to sui fer least in the industrial and commercial rearrange ment that will follow the cessation of hostilites in Europe" Regarding automobiles word of warning is sounded This authority says that motor stocks have been highly inflated.
 The status of the steel industry, the barometer of business, is regarded of the most reassuring factors There is every prospect of another steel busy and profitable last year. That is regarded promising at least year of present boom in nearly all lines of industry and trade.
