He explained that he had had only two drinks, but that each was a skelly, and to enlighten the ignorance of 4 the Court he explained that a skelly was a drink the size a policeman, takes, and that it could be seen above four fingers securely grasping | « $ the glass, i. Henceforth a skelly will be to whiskey what a schooner is to beer, § IF AND WHY. If when a great railroad violates an injunction its officers are not to be prosecuted; ’ If when the Beef Trust violates an injunction its offense is to be, glossed over; If when a minister plenipotentiary speculates on his official position he is to be promoted; And if when some Vermont stonecutters violate an injunction the) 3 are sent to jail and their little homes taken away from them by the sheriff to pay the damages and costs, Then some ignorant rich people wonder why “sociafism is stalking.” NATIONAL DIVORCE, By bringing the questions before the United States Supreme Court in detail the most valuable features of a national divorce law can be accam. plished without constitutional amendment or additional legislation. The, difficulty in the way of a uniform divorce law is that the States vary now| in range of causes from no divorce in South Carolina and only one cause | in New York to the many excuses which could hardly be called cause of | the Dakotas, q A national divorce law is different from a uniform divorce law. A} § national divorce law can be had by the United States Supreme Court de-| @ ciding between the conflicting rules of different State courts concerning service and extra territorial eifect. As it is a divorce which is valid in one State may. not be valid in New York, and the spectacle was presented last week in one of the New York State courts of a man and his wife who thought they were divorced and who wanted to be divorced being judi-| 3 cially told that in New York they are still man and wife. If uniform rules for service and jurisdiction were laid down by the United States Supreme Court each State could continue as at present to decide what causes would justify divorce within its territory, and the rules regarding domicile and service heing settled there would be no doubt as to when a man and a woman are legally married and when they are legally divorced, TAMMANY'S ANNUAL PUBLIC SERVICE, Tammany performs one public service every year in continuing the old-time oratorical Fourth of July. Back in the days when well-rounded periods and sonorous language were a pathway to political distinction the Fourth of July was the annual display day for patriotic speech-making. Though the general observance of this custom has died out Tammany continues the traditions of its origin in its Fourth of July talk-fest. More important than the speeches is the reading of the Declaration | of Independence. There was a time when schoolboys had to learn this! great proclamation of freedom by heart, when its great truths were f miliar to every one and when its position as cardinal doctrine was unas- sailable, So it should always be, Charlotte D. Sage was very considerate in creating by will a fund to provide her elderly father with cigars. Smoking may be a bad habit, but there is more consolation in it than in many other things to which no exception is taken, uinamen favor the adoption of a regulation that all nts shall be fumigated and pay a $5 fee before being This is a specimen of Chinese retaliatory humor, Hong Ke permitted to land, The Sultan of Sulu thinks that four miles an hour is fast enough for an automobile.
