It goes far beyond my comprehension,” continued Mr. Edwin R. Turley of Birmingham, at La Normandie last night. “When I was here several weeks _ ago the democrats couldn't get a quorum on Some question or other, and the republi- cans sat back and laughed at them; and I understand such an occurrence is frequent. An event like that would be impossible in our commons. The government would not dare to approach a measure without a quo- rum being present. I understand there are 221 democrats in your House of Representa- tives, and that unless thirty-five of them are | always absent from their seats, there is al- ways a quorum of their own numbers pres- ent to transact business. It seems to be a strange condition of affairs when men chosen to protect the interests of the coun- try and make its laws can’t give their whole attention to their duties, especially when they are so liberally paid for it.” “New York will be compelled to hide its diminished head hereafter so far as grand opera is concerned,” said Phil. Eldridge at Willard’s to a party of gentlemen. “The success of the Abbey-Grau combination during the season just closei in Chicago has stamped the great western metropolis as the place on this side of the water where great | European operatic successes will hereafter be first reproduced. This will be due not only to the commercial wisdom of managers, but largely to the wishes of the singers themselves. In the recent season there a remarkable list of artists There were the two De Reszkes, Emma Eames, Madames Nordica, Scalchi, Melba and Ar- noldson, the marvelous Calve, Lasalle, the baritone, and Plancon, the basso.

Such a thing would make the sn.all- est p. 1. gambler at Hawthorne even blush for shame if he was guilty of it. What does ‘full’ mean? Why, it means that the book- makers are afraid to take any :nore bets on the horses before whose names the word is bracketed at any odds. This is the case in the Brooklyn Handicap with G. W, John- son, Bassetlaw, Eloroy, Dr. Rice, Diablo, Sport, Long nen and some —- At is cowardice, maybe, but perhaps it is some- thing worse. I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't done to force the great army of the public, who persist in betting anyhow, to put up their good money ou horses that haven't a ghost of a show to win.” “I believe the day of the professional poll- tician will soon be a dead letter, instead of @ red letter period,” said Henry R. Echols ing. “There is a steadily growing opinion among thinking men all over the country. that it.is time to put pot. house politics on the shelf and select only upright and honor- able men for office. Of course, I do not mean to say that all men elected to public positions are dishonorable, but 1 do asvert that it is extremely difficult for a man to receive a political nomination in this coun- try today without winking at trickery and knavery even if he takes no actual part in it himself. The county primaries every- where are manipulated to suit the intentions of the minor bosses, who expect to be recog- nized eventually in the distribution of the spoils, and so it goes through the county conventions and all the way along until the election is held. If one of the apostles was a successful candidate at a close elec- tion in any congressional district in the | Union today he would find himself, hepa | he took his seat, under obligations to as ar- rant a lot of small fry and soulless political manipulators as tt is possible to imagine. I believe we can see on every side a tendency on the part of reputable citizens to rid the communities in which they live of the in- dividuals who subsist on the corruption of politics and affect the healthiness of the entire system of self-government. And with the professional politician I expect to | see also the fessional wv orkingmwen other professionals, who are a pretty slimy lot of y rascals, any way you look at them.” A handsome woman leaning on the arm of @ striking-looking man passed down 15th street by the Riggs House this morning. Some one remarked upon the distinguished appearance of the couple. “She is a Dakota divorcee,” said a quiet- looking gentleman, who writes C. F. Taylor, Milwaukee, on the register when he reaches @ hotel. “She was granted a decree from her first husband out in Yankton while he was in Europe and immediately married the man you see her with. He was, I believe, formerly a gambler in Buffalo. The origi- nal hasband knew absolutely nothing of his wife's proceeding until the notice of divorce ‘was sent to him in Italy, and I hear he has gone to the dogs over there on account of his grief at her idy. He had settled a C3 is property upon her be- and then the gambier came along and won her affections in less than no time. “Such cases,” continued Mr. Taylor, “‘em- Phasize the necessity for the adoption of uniform divorce laws of a stringent charac- ter in the United States, The laws of many of the different states really offer induce- ant for divorce. In several of them, and | especially Dakota, it is no trouble at all | for a man or woman who finds the matri- monial yoke galling to secure freedom from it without any difficulty whatever, provided they can afford it. The increase in the per- centage of divorces in this country is some- thing frightful.
