DUBLIN, Feb. 27.-Before leaving Limerick one of the residents there gave me advice about the Kerrymen.
 While you are trying to weigh them up" he said, they will be watching you and be sure that they will always tell you what they think you would like to hear"
 I fared just the opposite. The Kerry people exaggerated stories out of all proportions.
 Over the Limerick border and on to Tralee, the principal town in the county, where I again found things normal I was surprised at the large number of country people in the streets. There was a continuous line of carts in almost every street, and some were leaving piled high with food and provisions for many of the surrounding districts. Since the Republicans wrecked the railways to Killaraney, Dingle and other places, Tralee has been the supply center of practically all the western and southern areas of the country.
 Tralee was never really badly hit in the way of procuring foodstuffs and other supplies. When the rail- roads ceased to function the goods were brought in via the sea. People in Killarney and Dingle have now to send to Tralee for their goods, with the result that Tralee merchants are prospering while in the other towns grass is growing in front of the shops The Free State has suc-

 The whole of the Dingle peninsula, at the tail of which stands the great Western Union Cable Station, is isolated except by the road route, and even over the roads it is diff cult to travel. The rails lifted from the railroads were actually placed across the roads in beds of con- crete to make Instructions. Another formidable obstacle was made in the following manner: Part of the rail road runs alongside the road The rails at one place were diverted onto the roadway and a coach sent along at full speed. It ran out on the road, and there it remained. In ad- dition, bridges were blown up, trees felled and all the usual road-bocking tactics resorted to.

area. Their greatest difficulty is in disposing of the stock they have ready for market. They have to cart it or walk it all the way to Tralee and sell it at a ridiculously low price, while anything they buy can be procured for two-thirds the cost in Dublin.
 Lurid tales are told of food shipped into the area being seized by the Republicans and taken away to their various retreats in the mountains. Since the coming of the Free State troops all this has been stopped.
 An American lady recently came all the way from Chicago, with her daughter, to visit some relatives in Dingle. They left the city of Cork on one of the small coastal boats and some of them are mere fishing smacks, that nowadays are reap1ng golden harvest-and a storm arose very soon after, compelling the tiny craft to put in to one of the many little bays that indent the coast. Nothing would induce the two wo- men to return to the boat, and they forthwith set out to find a way of getting to their destination. The only conveyance available was a dilapidated cart, but it was readily and expensively hired, and the Chi cago woman was heard to mutter, as they made their tiresome way along
 My, what life! I set out in a Pullman and finish up behind an old donkey!"

International Marriages Notable Among Cases
 Occupying Courts
PLUME IS ITALIAN RENO
One family Appeals to Vatican for Permission
 Obtain Annulment

ROME Feb. 27.-A wave of divorce is sweeping over Italy.
 Italian-American alliances are prominent in the cases which are be- fore the courts or to be brought be- fore the courts.
 Italians must assume another na- tionality before they are able to secure divorce, since the Italian law does not provide for divorce, but only allows the registration of decrees nisi ob- tained abroad by former Italian sub jects. Up until a short time ago the need of assuming foreign national ity was a hindrance to divorce, but that difficulty has been overcome by the ease with which the nationality of the Free State of Plume can be obtained. In Plume there still rules the old Hungarian law which admits divorce, and Italians have no objec- tions to becoming citizens of Plume, since they do not consider that by so doing they are actually changing their nationaity. Therefore Plume has be- come the Mecca for all ill-assorted Italian couples, and attorneys in the dead city" of Plume are reaping mon. etary harvests from the divorce courts. Royal Family Involved 1 It is commonly rumored in Rome that Prince Marine Torionia and his wife, Princess Elsie Toronia, who is an American by birth, are soon going to have recourse to the Plume divorce courts.
 Another Italian-American marriage that is reported to be on the verge of dissolution is that of Prince Andrew Boncompagni, who many years ago married Margaret Draper, daughter of General Draper, former Ambassador of the United States in Rome. It is re. ported that-since the Boncompagni family belongs to the "black aristoc, racy" (adherents of the Vatican) and the Vatican does not approve of di vorce-Prince Andrew has filed a pc tition before the authorities of the Church for the annulment of his mar riage with the Princess on the grounds that since there have been no chil dren the marriage has never been com pleted. Although the Vatican has had the case under consideration for some time no decision has been reached.
 Was Washington Event
 The Princess Boncompagni has many friends in Rome and is sustain. ing with great dignity the trials of the proceedings. Princess Boncom. pagni has taken up her residence in one of the big Roman hotels.

BETTER METHODS TO
 FEED ELK IS URGED
Wyoming Asked to Supply Hay for Them Before They Are Prey to
 Predatory Beasts

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Feb. 27.-The State of Wyoming is all wrong, or nearly so, in it's system of feeding wild elk in the famous Jackson Hole country, according to Representative w. c. Deloney, of Lincoln County, who desires the appointment of a legisla- tive committee to go to the elk coun- try and look into the matter.
 Deloney's legislative hobby is game protection. He lives in the heart of the big game region. He believes that the States feeding, designed to tide the elk herds over periods when na- tural forage is too deeply covered with until it is too late to save many of the elk. By the time the State begins providing hay for the elk, he stated in an Illuminating speech to the House, many of them are too far gone from starvation to be saved by the de- layed aid; so weak from hunger that they fall easy prey to coyotes and other predatory enemies. He believes that a study should be made of the feeding problem and system adopt ed whereunder feeding would begin in ample time and be continued until spring is sufficiently advanced for the elk to subsist without assistance.
 The present feeding system, Rep resentative Deloney stated, not only result in the loss of great numbers of elk that should be saved, but in loss to the ranchmen of the Jackson Hole country. The elk, driven to despera- tion by hunger, raid the ranches and consume large quantities of hay stored by stockmen for the consumption of domestic stock. If State feeding were begun in prope time, he pointed out, these desperate raids would not take place.
 No action was taken on Representa- tive Deloney's suggestion for an inves- tigating committee, but he will bring the matter up again later.

FILIPINO OFFICIALS
 LIVE IN SPLEND0R
Costly Cars, Expensive Dinners Arouse No Resentment in
 Constituency

MANILA, Feb. 27.-The House of Representatives recently purchased for Speaker Manuel ROXas an expens- i've limousine, with all the modern not the heart of George F. Rabbit, Realtor,' the purchase price being $7,250. At the same time the Legisla- ture is looping expenses on all sides for the legitimate activities of Gov ernment and has taken more than $1,500,O00 off the school budget. No howl however, goes up from the peo- pie, a fact that illustrates the peculiar psychology of the Filipino.
 "The Governor-GeneraI has two ex- pensive cars" they say, mot to speak of several other cars. The Speaker gets only a small salary-$6,000 a year-and must live on a plane befit- ting his position, as he represents, with Quezon, the Filipinos in the Gov ernment"
 Quezon, too, receives but $6,OOO a year from the Government but main tains a menage that would tax a mil lionaire's resources. The expense of his frequent dinners would probably more than absorb his salary. It is generally understood that admirers of his-he is practically a worshipped man-ply him with gifts. There is no breath of scandal, and among his own people it rebounds to his credit that he lives so proudly. Hints of criti cism are invariably answered with the remark. "He must maintain the dignity of his office, and $6,OOO Is not sufficient to do this on, you know"
 It is something that would not go in American politics, if so publicly known, but which is quite the thing in the Philippines because it is in accord with the psychology of the people.

 Harkins, the youngster declared, had kicked him in the hip while stopping a "kid" street fight.
 Did you hear the defendant say he would break every bone in my body?" Jimmy asked a witness.
 "Well, he did," the lad countered, when the witness replied in the negative.
 Harkins was adjudged not guilty.
