In a recent lecture in Carnegie Music ‘ Hall, Prof. Felix Adler discussed mar- riage which he declared was better than cclibary. “I don’t wish to reflect,” he said, “on the motives of people who lead a single Hf? SOme Of them are too contempti- ble to consider. For instance, those who , are too lazy to make a change in their life. . “It is an excellent thing that many ~ young women are learning to be self-de- pendent and . self-supporting. *‘It is good, whether such a woman marries or not. “There is a new law of marriage re- cently" advocated by some women. It is to substitude the words, ‘until love and respect shall cease,’ for ‘until death does us part.’ What-a reign of license. would ensue if this plan were adopted? Love inay sink beneath the waves and rise again and again. A helping hand may often save the love from drowning. But you must be your own saviors. ~ You cannot expect some great Galilean to come to your assistance and work a miracle. ‘ - “Some people object to being bound in an irrevocable tie. ‘ Such - are anar- chistic. You say a giddy boy and giddy girl enter marriage and when tired of marriage should be freed from the bond because they made a mistake. There are many things in this life that are ir- revocable; many ties and relationships. Very few of the mistakes we make in the moral world can we undo. , We must expiate them, if disappointed. It is beyond our power to dissolve many bonds of relationship. If brother can— not withdraw from the tie of brother. why should the fountain source of such ties be destroyed? “I recognize the dissolution of the marriage tie if necessary. There are certain causes that make, divorce a he cessity. Perpetration of heinous crimes is sufficient cause. The felonious crim- inal is an abnormal being. Extreme perversion of moral nature .is a justifia- ble ‘cause. Marriage is contracted be- tween two human beings, and not be- tween a human being and a fiend. The incurably alienated in mind are as good as dead. Judical separation might be more generally used than at present. Many people have odd notions of mar- riage. They think it is a. thing of pleasure. So it is; but it is much more.” Prof. Adler said happy marriages were much more frequentfithan the mel—. ancholy stories of the divorce courts would lead one to suppose. The happy people are silent. SUGAR AND THE INSURRECTION. What the Rebellion in Cuba fsCosting the United States. The loss of the sugar crop of. Cuba means a great deal financially to the people of the United States, as well as to the people of Cuba. Sixty-seven mil- lion spoons go into our sugar bowls every morning, until in 365 days a spoonful ata time means 2,000,000 tons. or 4,400,000,000 pounds of sugar con- sumed by our people, fully one-half of which comes from the island of Cuba. To lose this supply and be obliged to obtain it from other countries means an unknown increase in the expense of every family. It has already made an increase of onehalf per cent. in the price for sugar, or at the rate of $22,- 400,000 increase for the year, and this amount will soon be doubled, if not trebled. Probably few of our people have thought that we as a nation have such a direct interest as this in the Cuban rebellion. Spain has recently claimed that her loss of revenue (export taxes) from the loss of the sugar crop would not exceed $400,000. The United States will lose at least $40,000,000, an amount that would go some way to the relief of the Treasury. The, Cuban planter loses the value of all his crop; the Am- erican sugar merchant . loses the money he has advanced the planter withlwhich to make the crop, and the leading house of Cuban trade in New York has this week failed as a consequence—A Sugar Broker in the Independent. ~King Alfonsa Doesn’t Like Bull Fights. Every mother will appreciate the feeling which has caused the Queen Re- gent of Spain to postpone as long as possible the duty of permitting her little son, Alfonso, to attend a bull fight. It was de rigneur, however, that the King should countenance by his presence, this national Sport, and he has done so not to his own pleasure, it is reported. His mother has not hesitated to make public » her own aversion to'the spectacle, and her son evidently shares this dislike, at least now in his tender years. It is doubtful, however, even .if‘-hism’aturer . tastes should still revolt at these per- formances, if he will be able to sup- press them. ‘ Spain without bull fights- would hardly be ‘ Spain to the average native—Philadelphia Ledger.

Captured by Transvaal Diamond Thieves and Rescued -by n Half-Breed Girl ”‘ Just Before Being Tattooed With the Thieves‘ Sign. - He came into -the editorial rooms with a rather uncertain, hesitating‘ air. This was not unusual, for many peo- ple do that. But he was, nevertheless, 1a most unusual character. Tall and straight, with ‘ a sturdy, muscular frame, his clear, gray eyes and the rud- dy (bronze. of his weatherbeaten face told of a life of exposure and hardship. He looked every inch a cowboy, and. he was. Moreover, he was a cowboy with a history, which he told in a re- markable way. straightforward and convincing. “Nearly a year ago,” he' said to a Pittsburg Dispatch reporter, “somé fel- lows out West persuaded me that Africa was a great place to get rich, that there was plenty of money in the mines. “When I got to Cape Town I got a job in some diamond mines about two hundred miles to the north. . The man- ager was an Englishman named Glen- ninger, and he ‘was a good, square man, too.» I’ve nothing against him, andif they’d all been like that I would have been all right. - But there‘s a mean crowd around those mines. “They paid me £10 - a month, which was pretty fair, but not as good as I could get in Texas. There was a girl there, a servant of Glenninger's, a half- breed named Lozaro, who talked Eng-r alish pretty well, and took something of a fancy to me. It’s a" good thing she did, for if she hadn’t I don’t know where I’d be now. “A good many natives and half- breeds worked in the mines, and we had to watch them pretty close to keep them from stealing. After I’d been working four or five months I began to suspect a half-breed named Gazaro. I didn’t say anything, but kept on watch- ing, and finally caught him hiding a big piece of diamond quartz. The thing wasn’t worth much, after all, for it was full of flaws. But of course Gazaro was discharged. Before he .went he' swore he’d get even with me,‘but I did not worry much about that. It seemed to trouble Lazaro. She used to tell me always to be on my guard, for there was no telling what might happen. “Well, some time after this I Was sent off on the trail with two pack mules loaded with machinery. There were three natives with me. After a day’s riding we stopped at a camping place for the night, and the negroes were to watch. I guess they must have fallen asleep,'for along about midnight I woke up and found Gozaro clutching at my throat, and a lot of his men around him. They set the mules free and gave them a lash with a whip. I was glad of this, for I knew they would find th.-ir way home, and when the peo- ple saw my mule coming back without me, they’d know that something was wrong. --“Gozaro and his men put me on one of their mules and tied me. They used my own lariat, a rawhide I’d brought from the United States. They didn’t say a word, but broke away from the trail, and we rode and rode away off in- to the country. We kept going all night and up to about ten o’clock next morning, when we stopped and camped. Then GOZaro and the band of villains got around me, and he told me what they wanted. ‘Ive got you now, he said, ‘and ‘I can even up with you for what you did to me. But we won’t hurt you if you’ll be one of us and work with us.’ .“You see, these rascals were all men who had been driven away from the mines for,stealing, and they liv‘ed by plundering and robbing and getting diamonds any way they could. But they needed a white mantto sell the diamonds, and that's what they were going to use me for. Well, I tried to put them off. I asked them for a day to think about it, for I knew the mules would have given the alarm by that. time, and Glenninger might. have a chance to rescue me. Luckily, Gozarc said he would give me the entire day to decide. ‘ “The next day at noon I told them I’d join them. There was nothing else to do, and I didn’t know what they’d do with me if Irefused. Then they said they’d have to' wait until sunrise before . they tattooed me. It seems they tat- tooed a picture of the sun on the chests of all their men, and always did, it' at sunrise.- So I: had agood many hours ‘ more to wait. That night they tied me again, and after\ that we all went "to sleep. ' “Several hours afterward I was waked by some one‘ tugging at the string around my wrists, and there was ‘Lozaro trying to loosen me; The girl had seen' my mules come back, and she had a pretty good idea .what had be come of me, and Where they had taken ‘ me. ' So she up‘an‘d hurried off to try to help me. Being ' a half-breed herself, she wasn’t in any particular danger. but she got me out- .of a pretty hole. “She guided me- back to the trail, and then we started back toward Cape Town instead of going back to the mines. . On our way we met a troop of soldiers coming from Cape Town, and almost at the same time Gozaro and his men came up after us. They had found out that I was gone, and of course they wanted to get me again if they could. But when they saw the soldiers they ran like cowards. _ - “You can bet I was mighty glad so get back to Cape Town, and I didn’t go back to those mines, either. Glennin- gar said himself that he thought I‘d bet— ter not go back to work at the same old place; it was too risky. ,He: offered me Work at another mine, but I did not want it. I had enough of Africa to suit » me for the rest of my life, and I knew when I did have enough. _ I sailed 7 from Cape Town for Liverpool January .6, and got back to America as scon as l oould."'_ ‘ a ‘ ' . ‘ Weed‘, Druggist.
