Thirteen yoars ago Sister Mary Nicholas, a representative of the order of “‘sisters of charity of the bleased virgin Mary,” was sent from the mother houss at Dabuque to this clty, for the Erpon of eatablishing here & school for yourgla- dies. The success which crowned her labors was evident long before death clalmed her, some three months ago, leaving a large and thoroughly equipped echool bullding as & monument to her uatiring zeal In the field of educrtion. The bullding is of brick, two stories high, and contalns every faollity for Its special work, Even with the several additions made to the original building, it Is now crowded to Its full capaclty, and a new additlon, deslgned for a music hall, will soon be added. Another Important improvement is contemplated for the present year, the ralsing of the building about five feet. This change 1s neoessary, owlng to the grading of * | Satutatory Martin and O'K Ella Caming. The studio will bs open to visltors to- day and to-morrow.

How an Towa Educator Has Aroused the Citizens of Malvern, Correspondence of The Bee, MavLVERN, Ia,, June 20.—A recent is- sue of your paper contalned a communi- cation on the subject of ‘‘Divorce,” dated at Malvern, Iowa. The article was prompted, evidently, by a case, some facts of which had then recently come to light In thls community., Later devel- ments Indicate clearly that the writer did not overstate the criminal phases of this affalr, and that the criticlsms were none too severe. A few years ago R. M. Brldges went from this place to York, Nob., and took charge of the public achools of that town, | I lesying his family, consisting of a wife and two sorse, here. This arrangement was understocd to be temporary and by mutuel agreement. Bridges has con- tinued to visit his family as opportunity offered, usually spending his vacation at home. Soon after his return to York in Aprll last—at the close of his spring va- cation—this community was shocked by the report that he had instituted sult for divorce, alleging In his petltion that his wife had deserted him without cause, while he had been faithful to all his marl- tal vows. Mra. Bridges being well known here ss an _estimable christian woman without a character, tge crime of which she was accused, the people were justly indignant at the proceeding and denounced 1t in strongest terms. Indeed so strong was the feeling that & public meeting of cltlzens wi talked of, to protest against the inlquil- tlous allegation and fix the guilt where it properly belonged. The ladies of the women’s christlan temperance unlon did meet and passed some resolutions expressive of thelr sympathy with Mrs. B., and thelr confidence In her Inno- cence. These resclations were by order of the soclety handed to the local paper with request that they be published. Bat for tome reason the requeat wa3 not complled with. The article in the Bre referred to above was also offerod to the ublic, we are informed, throngh the me medium, bat like the resolutions remain *‘crowded out.” But the sentiment of the community was t00 strong and unanimous to be sup- pressed. Their righteous indignation must have an ontlet. A statement of the care vindicating the character of Mrs, B, and signed by over filty of our leading citizens was presented to the Malvern paper and its publication respactfally re- quested, and the statement was published. And this brings us to the polnt for which this article is wrltten chiefly. At York, Ne! , the name of an inno- cent woman stands branded in the coorts and before the publlc as guilty, The citlzens of Malyern know that she 1s in- nocent and bear testimony to the fact. But at York, where Jt 1s mort desirable that this testimony should have welght, & report has ceen put in circulatlon that the partles whose names are attached to the atatement referred to are of ‘‘dlsrep- utable character,” This s just what might be expa from s party who has so little regard for trath or virtue, and whe can revel over the writhiogs of wounded and crushed in- nocence, Yet for the Information of who may be blindly accepting such f hood for fact, we desire to say that the names appended to that declaration are men and women than whomnone stand higher in this or any other community. Aud these names are not a tithe cf the number, equally respectable and respon- sible, that counld have heen added. In the llst we have ate the names of the pastors of all the charches of the town; the presidents and cashlers of the banks, many of our leading merchants and pro lonal men, with several substantial far: nd stockmen. As to the ladles whose names appear there are none more honorable anywhere, Many of these men and women are leading members of the varlous churches, representing four denomina- tlons—Baptist, Christian, Methodist and Presbyterlan, Others are of high moral standing ountslde the churches. We, therefore, nall the lle where 1t belongs. As a teacher Prof. Bridges has been qulte suo al, and it is not surprising that he should find endorsement as an educator, particularly so when we con- slder how many there are whose idess ive to the marriage relatlon are on me low plave. But the man who delibarately abandons a faithful wife, and then deliberately swears that she 1s the guilty party, is not, it seems to us, the man demanded by thls sge of christlan THE OHEAPEST FLACE IN OMAHA TO BUY U"RHNN I IT]-UURHE[ Is AT DEWEY &STONE Oae of he Best and Largest 8tocks in the United States To Belect From.
