Old Darky's Description of Wife's
Failing Aptly Spelled Out Word
He Didn't Understand.

Moses Diggs, an old Alabama darky.
had been arrested for having more
than one wife, the last woman being
the complainant. He happened to be
well known locally and considered an
orderly character.
"How many wives have you had?"
demanded the examining judge.
"Six, yo' honah," was the reply.
"Why couldn't you get on with
them?"
"well, sub, de fust two spilled de

DIVORCE RING" THE LATEST
Fad Recently Adopted by Those Freed
From the Marital Tie by Court
Proceedings.

From time immemorial woman has
worn on the third finger of her left
hand plain band of gold as symbol
of her honored position of wifehOod.
And when death takes from her the
partner of her life she signifies her
loss and grief by wearing appropriate
garb.
But in what different manner to-
day the widow of the present, that is,
the one who by the sanction Of the
courts, has resigned her job as wife,
makes known to all the world her re-
newed state of single blessedness. For
the grass widow of today has
adopted the latest of fads, the "di-
vorce ring" The jeweled symbol of
the severance of the marital tie takes
the place of the former gold band. 1t
is made of gold or platinum on which
is mounted broken Cupid's bow at
the end of which is set jewel to rep
resent divorce. Should the wearer
once more embark on the matrimonial
seas and again come to wreck then
another jewel is added to indicate the
second divorce, and SO on.

MADE FOR EMPERoR's TABLE
Massive Silver Set Ordered by Ma
poleon Put on Exhibition at
New York.

The massive silver set of 919 pieces
ordered by Napoleon l, during the
hundred days, delivered after his alb
dication to Louis XVIII, and used by
the French royal family at Tuileries
palace from 1915 to 1880, has been
placed on exhibition in New York.
Two bullet holes in the soup tureen
bear evidence of the revolutions it has
passed through. Each article bears
the Bourbon coat of arms, the f1eur
de lis surmounted with the crown and
is stamped with the official govern
ment mark, the mark of the chief
craftsman and of the guild. Napoleon
l ordered this set of silver from Bien-
nais on his return to France from his
first exile on the island of Elba. 1t
was made during the hundred days of
Napoleon's second reign, but before it
could be delivered Napoleon was
forced to abdicate and was again ex-
lied this time to end his days on st.
Helena. Louis XVIII, his successor,
paid Biennais for the silver and had
the Bourbon coat of arms placed on
it. The set of silver passed finally to
the heirs of the due de Chambord and
through them has come to North
America.

While The News is not familiar with the provisions of the Arentz bill, to which vigorous objection has been made by the Pioneers of An chorage and Ketchikan, it is the belief of this paper that the mining laws, in so far as they apply to Alaska, should be permitted to re- main as they are, for the present, at least. There may come a time when changed conditions in the Ter ritory will warrant changes in the law, but when that time arrives. II should be left to the Territory to do the changing.
 It does not follow necessarily that what is good for Nevada is also good for Alaska, and it IS to be hoped that Delegate Dan Sutherland will be able to convince Congress, or the committee to which the ob- iectionable bill has been referred, that Congressman Arentz is not competent 10 speak for the needs of Alaska.
 There already has been too much tinkering with the mining law on the part of Congress. Suspension of the annual labor requirement, for in stance, which was advocated in Con gress on the grounds that it would benefit those who had gone to the war from the North, actually work ed an injury on the Territory And if 1t helped any soldiers. The News has never heard of ii. But 1t did benefit those who have large areas of mining ground tied up for pur- poses Of speculation and, if the truth were known, it probably would develop that the Arentz bill was designed for the benefit Of a certain few.
 Alaskans are fairly well satisfied with the mining laws as they now stand upon the statute books. They at least are familiar with the present laws, and The News does not know of any local or general demand for changes.
 It seems like Alaska Is always being 'Get in" on Federal action that is not desirable and excluded from legislation that might prove helpful. Years ago, when appeal was made to the Interstate Commerce Commission for relief from the Alaska transportation combine, the answer was that the Commission did not have authority over Alaska ship ping; and now, when reieif is sought from objectionable railroad regula- tions, the answer is that Interstate Commerce Commission regulations do not permit of changes.
