Secretary Jamieson, of the United States Masonic Benevolent Insurance association, yesterday sent out 6,000 Je ters of assessments.

The little fellow was beginning to be rather weary of his trip of exploration and was glad to be returned to his anxious pa- rents. The srohn;il.ioni ts of this congres- sional district have called a convention for to-day.

It is under- stood that the democratic ticket is to be ignored completely. Such is the whis- pered policy to be followed. Charley Strock says he will never play ball again in the Bluffs. He has ielded to the importunities of many riends, and his gentle voice will no more be heard upon the diamond.

He says the fire de- partment is conducted excellently. He neglects to state that while Sowders and Sanderson got drunk and were dis- charged, other members of the depart- ment get drunk repeatedly, make dis- gusting exhibitions of themselves in public and finally land in the police station, where theyare registered under an assumed name (Charley Ross is the name on the police register of a “*wi up’ fire fighter), and then the ca hushed up before it comes *Budge” also neglects to state how some of the fire laddies who “‘stand in,” go upon ‘‘the row” and assault boys i their teens and other similar These things all happen in our lently conducted” department. derson must not leave the house while on duty, although his su- perior tells him to go and get of beer, still this same an leave the house for two or the principals in a pri fight.

E. church to-night. —— An Indignant Officer. Officer Thomas gained a little un- pleasant notoriety yesterday. He was approached on the street by Dr. Emonds, and the latter, who had appar- ently been drinking, began to speak abusively of the oflcer’s wife, applying all manner of vile epithets to her. This was more than Thomas could endure, and he struck Emonds across the face with his open hand. The latter per- sisted in his abuse and Thomas struck him again. Bystanders then interfered and the officer left the spot. There had been bad blood between the parties for some time. Emonds was a former suitor for the hand of Mrs. Thomas, but his at- tentions were not favorably received by that lady. It is reported that the doc- tor tried on several occasions to make trouble between Thomas and his affianced, but was unsuccessful. After the couple were married, Emonds made out a bill for professional services and put it in the hands of Ovide Vien for collection. When it was presented, Thomas waxed wroth, and stated that he had never owed Emonds a dollar 1n his life, and that the latter knew better than to present the bill himself, as it would win for him a broken head. The two met on the street yesterday, as stated, and Emonds remarked that he understood that the officer was going to kill him. Thomas denied ever saying anything of the kind, but intimated that he had better not present a bill. Emonds became very abusive, and blows ensued. The officer immediately overstepped his bounds from a legal point of view, as the law distinetly says that no words can justify an assault, but the spectators say that Emonds did not get half his just deserts. His language is described as being most abusive and exasperating, as weil as an uncalled for attack upon the wife of a respectable citizen, — We have no competitors in finishing collars, cuffs and shirts.

IS MARRIAGE" A FAILURE? | The Question Disoussed by Two Noted English Lawyers, GEORGE LEWIS' EXPERIENCE. Heé Believes the Divorce Laws Should be Radicall Changed—Mon« Takes A Burning Question. (Copyright 1888 by James Gordon Bennet.1 Loxpos, Oct. 15.—[New York Herald Cable —Special to Tue Bee.]—The Daily Tele- graph has closed its discussion of the burn- ing question “Is Marriage a Failure!" and it is learned from the headquarters of that rewspaper that the controversy evoked sev- eral thousand communications, four-fifths of which were chaff, butthe remainder sin- cerely written arfl making pleasant reading. Mrs. Mona Caird, whose Review article had inspired the discussion, is now being lionized, but in reality she was anticipated a few years ago by George Lewis, in an article en- titled *‘Marriage and Divorce” in the Fort- nightly Review, signed by George H. Lewis, Popularly the letter “H” has been dropped, cockneywise, and he is called familiarly by everybody by histwo nam=s only. I found him recently cheerily walking through the groups of waiting clients in the immense old mansion, once the palace of the bishops of Ely, wherein is his suite of oftices. “Yes," said he, adjusting his traditional eye-glasses and insensibly gliding into his well-known persuasive tone, I follo wed the newspaper discussion during my short vaca- tion and was most amused with the airy nothingness which characterized —the cor: spondence. Few of the writers seenied to appreciate the gravity of the subject.” *In your extensive practice you must have had great experience " Lews (moderately) —“Some experi- tainly, both of marriage failure and al success.,” n concerned in many di. vorce eases, down to your recont Dilke and Crawford and Lady Colin Campbell cases, which scem to prove the afimative ! *“Yes, perhaps several hundred that went to trial, and many more which were adjusted.” hien you have happi illustrated the phrase ‘Componere lites’ “‘Happilyy yes. I alw: pate the court rooms,” ‘“Then perhups you can answer the ques- tion. How about you legal experience as to whether marriage is a failure” “The failurcs are in a great minority These naturally make noise and attract at tention, while marital peace and happiness, being unobtrusive, does not become sta- tistical,” ““The recent newspaper discussion evolved another question, whether the divorce laws should be amended o extended® by parlia- ment to meet the hardships of many married failures.” “Tam fully on record as to that inquwiry in my article, written at the reque: 3 ott when he conducted the Fortnight ly view. Your question was debated thirt ars ago, when the divorce act of Palmer- ston's government was passing, Since then the decisions in our divorce courts have tried and fu ed the features of not a few of our sh homes. Many injustices have operated, notably on women, and class amendments must inevita bly be introduced. Particularly, position of women under the divo should be assimulated to that of ma have in my arti ritten thus: present is a perquisite of the man. The empowers man, however monstrous his own marital conduct may have been, to_turn_ his wife into the street, and separate her from every intercourse with her children, or leave her to starve in the workhouse, if in a mo- ment of weak she forgets her marriage vows. But the woman, who has been sub- jected to her husband’s open and continuous udultery, even under the conjugal roof, is unable to obtain a divorce—only separation— unless he has been guility of cruelty or two years' desertion as well as adultery. Our act 1n this respect displays blind ignorance of domestic tragedies. It is drawn with the selfish object of ministering to man’s worse jealousies without attempting to give woman equal claims over the fidelity of her hus- band. I believe the time is not far distant when woman_will raise an effective outery against the abuse of the present system.’ " ‘“‘Practically what is your remedy for the mischief " *‘In addition to their present rights wormen ought to be entitled to a divorce for cruelty endangering life, for two years and upward desertion without reasonable cause, for ths adultery of the husband committed in her home or elsewhere, il under disgraceful and aggravating cieccumstances, and for.the con- viction and sentence of the husband to five years and upward penal servitude for crime.” “‘What about insan i “If incurable for two be divorce to either pa The interview was sed by Mr. Lewis turning to the consideration of another par- lismentary job, the huge papers as to which were labelled “Re Parnell-Times Commis- sion,” on which matter he is to be in the con- duct of the home rulers’ side, There are not half a dozen men Britain the subj prefer to antici- f Mr. E. enos, there should Great vho could give sounder opinions on t a8 to whether marriage is a_fail- ure then Montague Williar He held the most extensive practice s a barrister ever in the hands of one man in the London eriminal courts for years.

Women arc nearly always the complainants.” “What power have you to right their wrongs!” “or separation from bed and bourd I have powers just as strong as those obtaining in the divorce court. The law was gen y construed by magistrates that if a woman came into court and could show that her husband was guilty of cruelty and violence, 4 judicial separation should be given and the husband ordered to make an allowance of so much per week, in- accordance with b means. At the same time the husband w. sent to prison. But T got hold of the act and read it through carefuily. I conceived that it was not necessary to send the man to prison, for by so doing I should disable him from making the allgwance to the woman by stopping his pi Therefore, if it can pos- sibly be avoided, I°do not send the man to prison, but I grant separation and allowance. This course I propose continuing until it be appealed against successfully in the higher courts,” “‘Doesn’t that make a dissolution marriage rather easy!" “'No, not too much s0. I exercise my dis- cretion. Besides, as a rule the women have children to maintain, and if they are subse- quently proved to be living in adultery I im- mediately stop the allowance.” Do you consider marriage a failure among the poor of London™ “Yes; very often.. But Iam not prepared with a remedy. The worst cases are those of rash young people, clerks on small pay, who marry pennyless shop girls. They have not suflicient to hve upon. The man soon fiuds his home uncomfortable. What was enough for one was not enough to keep the house up. He gets his wages, and instead of taking them home he is tempted to spend them in the public house. - ‘Then he goes nhome and beats his wife. Such are a large number of cases in which marriage is a fail ure.” “‘Would you suggest o wmatrimonial com- mission to " sit upon young couples about to marry (" Mr. Montague Williams smiled. *No," he said, “not quite so bad , as that.

The number of made-up or collusive divorces which are obtained in the divorce court are remarkable. If husband and wife agree, as they 80 often do, on mutual divorce, nothing is easier than to prove cruelty and adultery also, for the matter of that.

San Francisco Chronicle: One of the most brilliant feats of French reporting is the following. It happened at the time when the great Traupmann mur- der case was agitating Parisand France and when everybody was eager for de- tails. A reporter, who had the matter in hand, left Paris for Cern where the father of Traupmann re: He arrived, called on the justice of p and the commissaire de police. invited them to follow him to the mairie, took his seat in the judge’s chair, and with unparalleled ‘audacity, ordered the garde de champetre to go and bring be- (_nr'- him the assassin’s father. The of- ficers did not say a word; and the porter had conquered them by his air {nul demeanor. When the father of Traupmann brought before him, cporter interrogated him usthough ally commissioned to do so. The result of the cross-questioning was that the boy had written to his father on the eve and on the day of the crime. **Mon- sicur de commissaire,” says the re porter, “please to go to the witness's house and ze these letter The functuary obey the letters were brought, and the reporter read them, found them full of evidence of Traup- mann’s guilt, copied them carefully, with a solemn air. Then, with re: s he handed over the originals to the jus- tice of the peace,asked him to seal them carefully, and keep them for the further use of the col The reporter put the copies into his pocket, saluted the gen- tlemen, and left.

Besides, he met two other Paris report ers, who had just arrived, and who would soon learn the news at Cernay, and send it on to Paris at the same time he did his report. What does he do? He goes up to his brother reporters and says, T am dying of hun my friends. Lét us br t together.
