Tlie Mlnlne-Nevins divorce case, which has
been revived by th publication of Mr.
Blaine, Br. 's. letter in vindlcntlon of the
conduct of his wife, recalls n decision just
rendered by the Supreme Court of Michigan
which will meet with popular approval, but
which goes to show the great diversity of
opinion that exlsu among learned jurists on
this subject. Butt was brought by a wife in
the lowoi court for damages for the alien
ation of her husbands affections. Tho do
fend ant relied chiefly upon a decision of tho
V Isconsln Supreme Court, which held as
follows: Tho wife being purer and better
than the liutband, and governed mora by
principal, she seldom violates tho marriago
obligations. Her doincstla duties rondor
her less exposed to tomptatton than tho h un
bend. His business takes him nway from
home and he is exposed to tho , temptations of
tho world to which ho easily urn-combs, n
condition that the wife had teuton to expect
when she married him; and for this reason
her right to bis society Is not equal to his
right to hers. To recognize her right to
bring such action would bo the most prolific
source of litigation that could be thought
of." Having this Wisconsin decision in
mind the Michigan Court unanimously reach
ed this conclusion: "This court regards
such reasoning as unsound. The necessary
absence from homo of one inoro than the
other makes no difference in their respective
rights. Because tho history of the rnce
shows tho wifo to bo less easily led astray, it
is no reason she should be denied the remedy
which for tho mine wrong Is freely given
him. An old maxim is Hint tho law will not
suffer u Injuiy and u damage without 10
dress. Will the law nid tho husband nnd
help the wife in a like caset Tho reasoning
that deprives the wife of redress when her
husband is taken from her uy tho blandish
ment and unlawful Influence of others is n
relio of barbarity of the common law which
in effect, made, the wife the mere servant of
tho hujo.iiui, and deprived her of all right
to redress her jwrsonul wrongs except by
his will."
Probably the most complimentary finan
cial settlement ever made in these prosuio
and mighty dollar days was that between B.
V. White and his creditors In Now York a
short time ago. The creditors signed releases
aggregating one million dollars, tak ing Mr.
White's words "GonUomen, I will pay you
with interest when I get on my feet again."
This is another illustration of the power of
money, or rather of the ability to mako It.
If Mr. Whitettad never been 'Wealthy, and
bad owed a thousand dollurs merely, Instead
of a million, it is my opinion that the law
and the gospel would have ground him as
they constantly grind the poor. Uut ho Is
different. It was n tremendous compliment
both to Ills ability and his honesty, however,,
and one which is not bestowed upon evory
man.
Tho Now York Central has proposed a fust
mail train scheduled to make tho run from
New York to Chicago in seventeen hours a
clean cut of five hours. It will leavo New
York at 4:30 p. m. and reach Chicago at 1 0
a. in. Superintendent McGrnth is very en
thusiastic over the Idea and talks of it thus:
"When this rapid service is established it
will result m the pi act leal suving of one
business day to New York and Chicago busi
ness men. Tho best time now made is twenty-four
hours. When this service is put on
we can send men out to meet tho train and
have the mail already sorted and ready for
delivery immediately upon its arrival. Tho
fast mail tiain from New York now leaves
at 0 a. m. and ui rives here in the morning.
If it is not started until four in the afternoon
that will give the New York merchants tho
entile day to prepare their letters." Surely
this is u country to be proud of,
I havo been reading an account of a most
affecting icene which occurred In the ollco
court of a neighboring city very recently.
Two lads of eleven and fourteen wero ar
raigned for burglary. As tho gray haired
father looked upon his two bright faced, well
dressed bods, sitting in the prisoner's seats,
is it nny wonder that ho could not repress
his bitter tears And was it any wonder,
also, as the solemn cuarg'e, of burglary was.
read npalnst tuem, tney too uungieu tueir
tears with those of their aged and distressed
parent? Btate criminals at such a tender
ago the thought was horrifying. The
father in broken sentences, plead for them,
succeeding iu getting the younger one dis
charged, but tho otheri will have to "do
time," at the reform school. Bo fur as could
be loarned these boys had a fairly happy
homo and kind treatment, but being allowed
their way too much had, by tho persuasion
of an older boy, been led into crime. If
children could only realize what parents and
friends sulfur from their Indiscretions, how
dilTeieut things would be. Out it is too often
tho case as It was with the younger boy,
who said, "I did not stop to think."
Hero's a curious case: William H. Brown
and his daughter were walking down Broad
way from the Metropolitan Opera House,
where thoy had seut the evening, At
Twentv-seventh street Mr, Brown went Into
a tobacco store to light a cigar and Miss
Brown proceeded slowly along, waiting for
him. Edward T. Katou and two friends
wero standing on Broadway when Ml us
Brown walked past Bho turned arouud to
look back for her father, and tho threo men
ogled her and made lemarks. When sho
looked back the second ti no, Eaton, leaving
his companions caught up with her, raised
his hat, with a pleasant smile said "Good
evening." Just us he did so the handleof uu
umbrella camo down on his head with u re
sounding whack, and Mr. Brown, who had
followed tho mun up, nfter using his umbrella
nmUomu strong Innguagu for u niliiuto,
called upon Policeman Kelly to arrest him.

Next morning nt Jefferson Mil ket Eaton ex
plained to Justioj Grady that it was nil a
mistake. The young woman, he said, looked
arouud seveinl times and he thought she
smiled. He was sentenced to six months
emprlsonment in default of $700 bonds f or
good behavior for making or, rnthr, not
making "a mash."
But here's the funny part of It: Tho Now
York Sun printed a brief uccount of tho af
fair, substantlaly as r.bove. Next day Mi
Dana got a letter from Morristown, (N. J.)
winch ran: "Sir: Knowing your activity
always In the cause of justice. I ask that you
say something in defense of Edward T.
Eaton, who as Pleura through tho columns
of your paper of this date, Is about to suffer
the severe penalty of six months' imprison
ment or a flno of $700.
While I do hnost heartily condemn Mr.
Eaton's conduct as unmanly and unbecom
ing a gentleman, nay, worthy of a reason
able flno and a severe reprimand, tu I road
and understand the case, it seems to me that
tho father of the young lady is as great a
culprit and should be required to ay art if
not tho whole of tho money. He, hor natur
al protector, leaves his young daughter alone
on the streets of New York ut nearly mid
night. Mr. Eaton Is probably a breadwinner,
evidently a poor young man, or ho would
gladly pay tho 'lino rather than suffer tho
misery uud shame of a six months1 imprison

What do tho readers of tho CouitlEU
think of tho sentiments expressed by this
"Amerlo m Girl?"
Discontent is tho leaven of progress and
ambition no doubt makes tho world move;
but common souse should teach n man to bo
moderate when his health and strength are
concerned. Overwork Is deplorably common
and is fust becoming u public enemy. It is
the duty of ull business men whenever they
are conscious of encroachments on, their vi
tality to command a halt nnd remember
that a largo business and a heavy bank ac
count are not a fair offset to premature ex
haustion, a softening brain andt short life.
Though human sacrifices are not tolerated
on our altars, wo still make lu a refilled and
conventional way sacrifices of time, health
and mental energy to a modern tyrant of
overwork. We live in a rapid age. The
clock Is too Blow and the days too short to
accomplish what we are seeking. A tulle of
life is crowded Into a yard of time. The
caudlo is being burned at bota ends nnd the
light goes out in the middle, Instead of at
the bottom, Business is urged on under
spur and whip, and is like a race-hor so which i
is kept forever ou tho race track and allow
ed little .rest in bis paddock. While there
Is no nation ou tho globe which makes such
strides of advancement as our own, there is
none which can show such a list of over
worked, .exhausted and disabled men. In
tho total of progress we have overlooked and
forgotten tho invoices of human life. We
are with reason proud of onr national su
premacy, but underneath tho structure are
tho catacombs filled with human beings who
havo been sacrlllcad for tho adva ntago of
others.
The Columbian Kxpoaltlon.
Onoof tho most magnificent structures
raised for the Exposition Is the Agricultural
Building. The bulldhu is put up very near
tho shore of Like Michigan and is 500x800
feet, Its longest dimensions belli east and

is bold and heroic. The cornor p tvlllons are
connected by curtains, forming a contin
uous nrcade around tho top of the building.
This is surmounted by a mumiuotli glass
dome 1IW feet high. All through the main
vestibule statuary has been designed, Illus
trative of the Agricultural industry. Similar
duslgus are groupwl ubout all of the grand
entrances in the most elaborate inamior.

Button's Uncle Tom's Cabin Company

play has lost none of Its charm and attiact

Of last seasons great successes in Now York,
few were accorded the buduess given to
"The Two Bister." Itwusublghlt follow
ing on tho "Old Homestead" und met with a
most cordial welcome. Denmaii Thompson 's
creations are never fuilures; anything from
Ids forcible pen endures. Here are two uble
critics on the piece:
"The Two Sisters" at McVlckers is decld
edly "grateful ami comforting" to those who
desire u change from the ultra-dramatic
tV(frd(o Tribune.
Tho Denver lMiily News says. " 'The Two
Sisters' is written more iu the spirit of true
comedy, or mild farce, than that of Um
horse-play comedy of late years. It ii
marked by naturalness. It is free from ex
aggeration and always hottest in method,
and there is au abundance of true humor. It
is novel and ulways interesting and is well
worth seeing."
Tho Funke glvee ono performance of this
great play next Thursday evening.
