CUPID TRANSFERS SMILES
FROM JUNE TO APRIL

Mars has even changed the marriage cal
endar In Philadelphia.
Though Cupid has always enforced his
dictum that June is the month of brides
Mars decreed otherwise this year and Rot
away with II. April usurped the honor,
And no one can deny that It was Mars who
turned the trick.
In April there were issued 2s15 licenses
at City Hall, while for the first twenty
nine days OF June only 2310 were issued
Taking the average of 16O a day as the
possible number that will be issued TODAY
the best June can show will be 2460-a
shortage for June OF 365.
Chief Clerk Ferguson, Of the Marriage
License Bureau, said today that there could
be no doubt that the approach of war
and the desire OF some men to avoid con-
scriptlon by hiding behind a skirt" had
been the cause OF the overturning OF prece-
dent.
proof of this is shown by the fact that
many persons who obtained licenses during
April did not use them when they found
out that marriage after war had been de-
clared would not prevent their being con-
scripted," said the chief.
At present the bureau is very strict in
it's issuance Of licenses TO men between the
ages of twenty-one and thirty-one years.
Licenses are refused to all who can not
show a registration certificate

RUSSIA WILL EXPOSE
OLD REGIMES SPIES
Names of Secret Police Agents.
Among Them Prominent Jour-
nalists, Will Cause Sensation
copENHAaEN Som. aa.

COfbNhAGEN, June 80.
The names OF spies and secret polIca
agents employed by the old autocratlc Cov~
ernment OF Russia are to be made public
by the provisional Government, and they
are sure TO create tremendous sensation.
said dispatch from Petrograd today.
The chief activities OF many of these
secret service agents were directed against
revolutionary movements and Organizations.
Since the downfall of the Gear some of
the men and women formerly employed IN
ferretng out revolutionary leaders have
been in the pay of Germany and have been
active in Petrograd in behalf Of separate
peace.
As soon as the revolutionary leaders took
over control Of the Russian Government
they sealed the police archives II was
considered unwise to make known the
names Of the Russian spies while the people
were still excited over the success OF their
coup against autocracy.
An examination of the archives however
revealed to the revolutionary leaders that
men and women hitherto unsuspected were
In the pay of the old Russian Government.
Some among them were prominent jour-
nalists.
1t was discovered that the CONFIDENTIAL
secretary of Vladimir Bourtzeff. the MAIN
stay Of the Russian revolutionary propa-
ganda in Paris, was in the pay of the old
Russian Government.
