Y. , and Rabbi Samuel H. Hlrschberg , formerly of Cincin nati , but now of Boston , was announced recently. Although bearing the same name the two are not related. Rabbi Hlrschbprg was born In Cincinnati thirty years ago and his little playmate was his present fiancee.

He met Miss Hinschbere here and the love of former days was renewed , with the result that their engagement was announced. Divorce by Justice of the Peace A ruial justice of the peace who formerly held court In the suburbs of Atlanta. Ga. , was an Irishman who held exalted \lews of the Indlssolublllty of a religious marriage , but believed that a marriage celebrated by a justice of the peace was only a civil con tract and could be dissolved bv the authority of the same magistrate. For Ignorant ne groes who sometimes applied to him for divorces he was accustomed to pass an or der something like this "Whereas , this court , on the day of , IS" , united In marriage William Jones nnd Mary Brown , persons of color ( the same being purely a civil contract and not a religious sacrament ) , and said William and Mary have this day appeared before me and agreed In open court to rescind said civil contract , and have paid the costs of court ; therefore. It Is adJudged - Judged that said William Jones and Mary Brown are divorced from each other , and the bonds of matrimony hertofore existing between them ( the same being purely a civil contract ) are hereby dissolved nnd the said William and Mary have leave to get married again. " His peculiar Ideas of his Jurisdiction and prerogatives resulted finally In bis conviction for malpractice In office. His mistake was In falling to realize that his philosophical Ideas , like many constitutional provisions , were not self-executing , but needed to bo embodied In legislation before they could be given effect.

LABOR UNION RECOGNIZED iof tin- Cell ( rut O Minim lriitloii MukcN a W. C Turner , lepresentatlve of the Cen tral Labor union , has made the following icpurt to that body on the condition of labor Intelests at the exposition : "H Is with pleasure 1 report that , after a full ln\obligation of the labor situation , I find that the Interests of organised labor have- received full iccognltlon at the hands of the management nnd ( lie iclattonB be tween employers and emplojed are ot the must harmonious character. Not only Is union labor empi'oyed In e\ery department , but union-made goods are well represented In the commodities for sale on the grounds. This Is something we can congratulate our- felves upon , as at the exposition last year union-made goods did not receive the prom inence nnd patronage they were entitled to. As jour representative on the Board ot Directors I am pleased to eay that I hava been treated with the utmost courtesy and every proposition emanating from organized labor has received due consideration at the hands ot the management. I believe that the Greater America Exposition will far ex cel In attractiveness the TransmlBslmlppl Exposition , seeing that every effort Is be ing made to have our new possessions rep resented by their people and products , much of which have already arrived. These trop ical exhibits of people and the commodities * they produce will possess a great Interest for us educationally , und they will repay the time spent by our people In the study of them. The beauty of the grounds has been much enhanced since last year by the landscape artist , making the whole a vert- table fairyland. The price of admission baa been placed within the reach of all and re freshments aie sold oil the grounds nt rea sonable rates. Taken as a whole , organ ized labor has every reason to be satisfied with the management of the Greater Amer ica Exposition and the citizens of Omaha good grounds for being proud of It.
