GOLD FISHES IN GERMANY MEANS SINGLE WOMEN WITH MUCH MONEY
Travelling Matrimonial Agents the Latest Idea
 Country Now Has Surplus of Females

BERLIN, March 1S.-Traveling mat rimonial agents constitute the latest idea in Germany. where keen competi- tion has developed among matrimonial bureaus because of the great surplus of women, partly due to the war.
 The matrimonial agents go from one town to another seeking "gold fishes" as the Germanus call them or, in other words, women with money who are desirous of obtaining true love and good-looking husband, though poor
 Both men and women have taken to the work of nuptial agents and oper- ate on the trains as they travel seek ing the acquaintance of likely-appear ing candidates to whom they explain their propositions when given even less than half a chance

album. leather bound with handles, and which is nearly as large as a suit case, the album containing pho- tographs of men who have registered as being in the market for a "gold fish" wife.
 These agents work on a commits sion basis, being paid by the bureau managers who when a match is made, charge per cent of the woman's wealth, payable immediately after the marriage takes place; the bureau also receiving a certain percentage from the successful man candidate, payable in installments, a certain length of time after the wedding date.
 One matrimonial bureau advertised recently that the names of 5000 mar riagabIe women were listed on it's books and that there were only 133 men candidates to meet the emer- gency

SUPERW0MAN SAYS MARRIAGE
 WITH BOY SPOUSE IS FAILURE

BOSTON, March 1S.-Because she is a superwoman, Mrs. Eugcnie Young Dickerman, fortyseven, says her shat tered romance, with her twenty-seven- year-old husband, Robert Elliot Dicker- man, was bound to fail.
 q am a superwoman! And that is not my fortune, but my misfortune" she lamented. "A superwoman can not hope to hold the man she loves if he is her mental inferior"
 The "boy husband" as Dickerman is known here, and his middle-aged bride separated shortly after their marriage July 4, 1919. Mrs. Dicker- man is now suing her mother-in-laW for $1OO00O damages for alleged alien ation of the "boy husbands" affec- tions.
 The history of her wrecked TO- nance is being barred by letters read in open court
 In one letter written to her moth er-in-law after young Dickerman had deserted their lovenest, the "super- woman" writes:
 "We superwomen apparently are never mated with supermen. I crawl on my hands and knees to you both. Robert says I am too old, that you cannot accept me. However, the cat is out of the bag now, and have no regrets.
 "Tell him love him and want him. And cry out: My God, by God, why

hast thou deserted me?"
 Robert Dickerman and his wife's son were "buddies" overseas. The two young men, it is said, were insep- arabic until Robert met his buddy's middle-aged mother in Paris, where she was a Red Cross worker. The son is reported to have objected to stepfather have not spoken to each other since, according to gossip.

MOSCOW, March IS. - Vladimir Korolenko, Ukrainian novelist and social worker, who recently died at Poltava was buried with all the honors of the Bolshevist state which has also endowed his family for life This in spite of his firm repudiation of the Bolshevist regime and his in- sistent refusal to support the Con- munist program as means of eff fecting reforms for which Koro- lenko suffered exile and had battled throughout his life.
 Even the radical Communists who made up the membership of the re- cent All-Russian Soviet Congress at Moscow honored the memory of Ko- rolenko by standing in silence for three minutes when the news of his death was received.

What is declared to be one of the most elaborate sets ever constructed for a motion picture, appears in "The Butterfly Man." the Robertson Cole Special starring Lew Cody at the Empress theatre. tonight. A spec ially built stage, covering an area of six thousand square feet was converted into a massive ballroom where the "rose cotillon," one of the spectacular scenes of the Cody pro- duction, took place.
 In the decoration of this room twelve thousand roses of every shade and variety, beautiful greens and rare fernery were used. Four hundred extras, costumed in the latest mode, were employed as guests and several famous ballroom dancers gave clever exhibitions.
 The "piese de resistance" however, of the remarkable scene is the burn- ing of a ballroom in the centre of the ballroom in the gasket of which are seated eight little children. Also Beat It. in fhich Snooky, the humanzee, galantly goes to the front for the little prima donna of Wrestor's cafe and secures her sav- ings from the bandits. He also plays in the orchestra.

In the terrible famine, of 1891, he was one of the most prominent relief workers among the distressed in the Volga area, and his book entitled "A Year of Famine" describes the horrors of that period. The name of Korolenko was for a generation to the Russians the sym bol of nobleness and embodiment of justice. He was caller the "con- science of Russia"
 Jewry is greatly indebted to him for his protest against the Beiliss trial, alleged to have been instigated by the Czar's government to expose Jews to fresh pogrom, and no less memorable was Korolenko's defence in the Mutton trial where a whole community was falsely accused of cannibalism.

pheasants for Vermont Wanted.

Copies OF booklet giving 'Instruc-
tions for the Raising of Pheasants" are
being sent out from the Office of State
Fish and Game Commissioner ID. L.
Sheldon. The booklet is being issued
by the state fish and game department.
Bad breeding seasons, disease and a
constant increase in the number of bird
hunters are the three reasons for the
scarcity Of ruffed grouse in Vermont
woods. according to a statement by the
commissioner in the booklet Artificial
propagation of grouse being held as an
impossibility, the introduction OF a
hardy strain Of pheasants is looked
upon as the only solution Of the wood
land game bird problem in Vermont,
the booklet states. Cooperation from
local organizations in introducing the
birds Ia asked, and success is looked
forward to.
The local sportsmen are reminded
that pheasant propagation under artiti
cial conditions is not difficult, and that
organizations which assist in the work
will receive the benefit of it, as the
pheasant tends to stay where it is bred.
The bird is not injurious to farm crops,
but on the contrary is destroyer OF
harmful insects, it is stated. The sex
are so plain that hens can be
and only male birds shot,
The booklet is issued to the sportsmen
and farmers.
