WOMEN GAINING IN ENGLAND.
Mrs Belmont Finds American Suffra
gists Are Being Distanced.
New York , Sept. 21. "Kngllsh
women nro far ahead of Ainorlcan wo
men In polities. They have a bettor
understanding of polities than the wo
men here. In England they are much
butter organized I" the cause of wo
man's suffrage than wo aro. "
This was thu compliment that Mrs.
O. II. P. llulmont paid the English
M onion today. Mrs. Belmont , accom
panied by Miss I noMllholland , re
turned yesterday ou the Mauretanla
from a trip abroad , where she made
un Investigation of economic condi
tions and the methods of the English
women In their campaign to obtain
the right to vote.
Adverse to missing any opportunity
to help the cause of suffrage , Mrs.
Holmont and Miss Milholland organ-
l/od a sui < Hrago meeting on the Mnurc-
tania and believe they gained several
converts to the cause. At any rate ,
they raised $50 which the ' 100 or more
'auditors contributed when the collec
tion was taken.
"Wo Intend to give the suffrage
movement 'greater impetus in this
country. " said Mrs. Holmont. "Every
day I expect to come hero to my of
fice from my homo out of town and
attend to the details of the work.
There are now Innumerable letters
liere for mo to answer. I will bo very
busy for a week answering them. "
Mrs. Belmont said that she believes
In another year the American women
will he as well organized as the Eng
lish women. She said she did not hold
n hopeful outlook for the cause In
France.
HUSBANDS ARE ONLY HUMAN.
Some Advice to Wives by a Woman
Divorce Lawyer.
New York. Sept. 1 ! ! . "To assure
T\ domestic felicity , hnsbund and wlfo
should be so harmoniously adjusted
that differences will never arise , " said
Hnrrictto Johnston Wood , a lawyer
who has made a good many trips to
Heno and back in the service of di
vorce clients.
"Of course , " she said , "marriages
based on perfect harmonious adjust
ment , common interests and mutual
respect are ideal , and they are rare.
Jt Is ridiculous to assert that all one
has to do to lead a life of married
bliss is to keep one's eyes open In the
courting period and make sure that
one is making a good bargain before
closing the life-long contract.
"Most people , " she continued , "tem
porarily assume certain charncterls-
tics , views , inclinations and principles
while courting merely to please the
chosen object of affection. Few show
their inner nature and true solve ? be
fore the knot is tied.
"As a result , only too often the Idol
falls from its pedestal , smashed into
n thousand pieces , and thu newly wed
is confronted with the problem how
to avoid domestic complications de
spite shattered dreams.
"Lord pity the young married W -
man who gives her husband cream
with his coffee and sips hers with ,
milk. Sooner or later ho'H get ac
customed to this treatment , and will
actually think he's entitled to it , and
she'll have to play second fiddle the
rest of her life.
"Then , again , disloyalty Is often the
cause of friction. In this case a win
ning smile , a becoming gown , an atti
tude of Indifference will go farther
than all the displays of jealousy , all
the fretting and nagging.
"Nagging , " she added , "Is like an
overdose of medicine ; It never has a
good effect , for It la an Irritant. .Teal ,
ousy is often duo to nothing but lack
of conlldence.
"Married people should trust each
other , give each other a certain
amount of freedom and not put down
a set of regulations'and expect a
iintnuto account of each word and ac
tion. Each Individual should bo per
mltted to do as he pleases , so long
as ho doesn't encroach upon the oth
or's rights.
"There Is another thing , " she ob
served , "that is good for both mar
and wife to remember , namely , thai
marriage Is not like unto a battU
won , that they are never fully vie
torlous , that the fight for possossloi
Is really never at an end. "

CAVALIERI IS THE LOSER.
BUT NO HOBBLt SKIRT.
The Property Chanter Assigned the
Diva is Encumbered.
New York. Sept. 24. The develop-
C. Poynter Redfern , Arbiter of Fash
ions , Gives His Ultimatum ,
ment's locally in the Chanlor-Cavallorl 1'
embroglio today showed that Cava-
Horl , Instead of being rlched by $30-
ouo a year as she thought she was , Is
out just $ GO and the board and lodg
ing of "Sheriff Hob" since Juno IS ,
when they were married.
The provisions of the ante-nuptial
agreement were given by Creste Cav-
alieri. The brother of the prlma don-
| na says that , strlpp'ed of legal vorbl-
age , these provisions are :
" 1. That , In consideration of the ful
fillment of the marriage contract , Rob
ert Wlnthrop Chanler transfers to
Llna Cavalier ! anl income from vari
ous sources roughly estimated at $20-
000 a year.
" 2. That for the same consideration
Chanler transfers to her , in fee simple ,
the Red Hook farm In Dutchess coun
ty , consisting of MO acres on which
are two dwelling houses. The esti
mated value of this farm is $0,500 , and
on It is said to ho a mortgage of $6,000.
" 3. Property In what Is known as
the Couslno farm , in the neighbor
hood of Fifty-seventh street and Ninth
avenue , consisting of dwelling houses
- I and estimated to bo valued at $325.000 ,
Is transferred to the wlfo. On this
property there Is known by the Cav-
allerlB to be a mortgage of $ in,000.
"I. That In the event of the death
of Robert Wlnthrop Chanlor , Cava-
llerl gets the Red Hook farm and the
Couslno property In Now York out
right.
" 5. In the event of Chanler'H death
thu property which Is tied up In n
trust fund for the first Mrs. Chanler i
and her two children shall go to
them. "
A man , who IH not willing to have
his name made public , but who has
been consulted since the affair be
came public , announced that the ante
nuptial agreement provides for the
transfer of all the property of which
Robert Wlnthrop Chanler was pos
sessed at the time of the execution of
the document , Including that not tied
up In trust funds or entailed to his
1-elrs. - The latter amounts to about
$ tfiO,000. Hut before Llna can get
this amount she must satisfy claims
against It amounting to $200,000 , being
$50,000 more than was transferred to
her.
When Chanler signed the marriage
contract ho knew ho was signing away
his right to the only property he had
on which ho could realize quickly. It
became necessary for him to have
money quickly. When he went to
CaV.ilierl for the llrst tlmo for casn
she outraged his feelings by telling
him his allowance would ho $20 a
month. Three times was his monthly
allowance paid.
Then Cavallerl decided it was about
tlmo she was getting some of the In
come from thu property transferred
to her. She had her attorneys make
Inquiry on this side of the Atlantic.
Then It was she realized that Instead
of having been put In possession of
$30,000 a year she had only possible
claim to property valued at $150,000 ,
and that this was encumbered with
mortgages and other liens amounting
to $50,000 more than It was worth.
Then the Chanlers chuckled. A full
Investigation showed that that trans
fer was not worth the paper on which
It was written. It is not expected there
will be any litigation.
It developed this afternoon that
Mine. Cavalleyl has made a tentative
'
offer to settle with "Hob" Chanler for
a trille of one-half million dollars ,
which her French lawyers have told
her could be Invested In France to
earn about ! percent. This would give
her an annual Income of $20,000 in
stead of the $30,000 called for In the
marriage contract. Thus Chanler
would gain $10,000 a year by the trans
action.
I Cavalleri , when she was married to
Chanlor , believed him to ho worth two
million dollars. Her friends think a
settlement of one quarter of this sum
\\ould be reasonable.
The famous ante-nuptial agreement
was attacked today in the courts of
i Now York City by the tailor who out
fitted Mr. Chanler with his wedding
clothes , his last evening suit and
twelve white waistcoats being among
I the goods said to be unpaid for. Mat
thias Hadln , lawyer , of 309 Broadway ,
represented the claim of $087 with In
terest , which was assigned by Wil
liam Barnes , the Fifth avenue tailor in
Question , for collection to George II.
Fulleneamp.
As was forecasted , the attack on the
ante-nuptial agreement comes from a
creditor. Irving Minsky , who is asso
ciated with Mr. Radln , says that Sid
ney Harris , Mr. Chanlor's personal
counsel , told him that Edward E. Per
kins of Poughkeepsle holds $3. > ,000
worth of claims against the former
sheriff of Dutchess county.
| The Bookmaker Had Fled.
I Deadwood , S. D. , Sept. 24. When
the Butte county fair at Belle Fourche
was called off yesterday on account of
. rain those who had bets In the racing
pool found that Tom Hubbell , who
made the books , had ( led with the re
ceipts. A warrant was Issued for his
arrest and olllcors of three counties
j are after him. About $50,0 is missing.
Hubbell is said to be surrounded at a
lonely spot In Spearflsh canon.

tral Congregational church hero , la
at work on a dramatic version of bin
most famous book , "In II i * Stops. '
Prof. F. II. La-.c of Washluirn college
is assisting In thn work.
Last winter a .new 'iork rompnn\
for tin * dramatic right for the
book , offering to ( nrnlsh a dnunatlnt
to wrlto the I'lay or have Dr. Sheldon
to do the work under the dliecthm of
a dramatist. . Dr. Sheldon refused to
allow the book to he dramatized ex
cept on the express condition 'that the
play should ho presented entirely by
Christian people , and this guarantee
uas not forthcoming. The play will
be presented by members of the Chris
tian Endeavor society of the church
In the Christmas holidays.
While the details lor tin1 presenta

n-ene from each of the twelve chap
ters of the hook that will carry the

A THIRD MAJOR 'LEAGUE ?
Tcbcau Will Ask National Commission
to Favor His Plan.
Cincinnati. Sept. 21. President
George Tebeau of the Kansas City
club will make the effort to secure a
peaceable readjustment of the base
ball ma ) ) to allow three major leagues.
He says that the tlmo of basohall
wars has passed and that financial suc
cess can only come from the peace
able adjustment of the troubles of the
American association. Futhermore ,
he says that the national commission
can ho broughtt o see the justice In
his claims and that those win DO pre
sented to the commission at an early
date by him.
Tebeau says that the Kansas City
management will build a larger grand
stand for the crowds which will come
when that club belongs to a major
(
league. He has figured out that Chicago
cage will stand another major league
team and that It can be placed on the
north side of Chicago , whore there's
easily one-half million people who are
from five to fifteen miles from a ma
jor league park. Another team can be
placed in Cleveland to play there when
the "Naps" are awny from home.
Pittsburgh also is considered by him
to be largo enough for two major
league clubs , as well as Cincinnati.
These four major league cities will ho
the only ones entered by this league
if his plwns are carried out. Four
American association cities irm go
into this league , namely , Indianapolis ,
Kansas City , Milwaukee and Coluiri-
hus. These four places have long
neon known as the best of the A. A.
cities.
"However , I would not declare war
on organise * } baseball , " President Tc-
beau said. "Such a thing as war can
bring nothing but financial loss to the
cities engaging in it.
"I would much prefer the good old
fashioned way of presenting to t ie na-
ional commission our plans and to co
jporate with them in the peaceable
nethods of organizing these clubs.
Within a very short time I shall np-
> roach them with my plans and will
lave sufllclent capital to make these
ilans come through. We can use the
lavonor park on the north side of
'hie-ago for the team there and the
[ rounds can easily bo secured In the
ilher cities. In think the now league
could go along without any hindrance
o the other two major organizations. "

iiiore accurate , has a better memory
uid better sense of touch.

Ii3 vast majority of freshmen c-aiw
, .1 better stock than the boys of th < -
ang typo and that among the street

t'nd ' such family history amonu tin-
> , .l.l.b t.

"ound Inat 12 percent had abnormal
right ears and S percent abnormal leit
ears. On the other hand , the eyes of
the college boys are made less strong

The Investigator Joins with others
In attributing self-tattooing to de m-
eracy. In the Columbia swimming
funk ho found no cases of this , ex
cept among the fraternity hoys , who
are required to have the Insignia of
their fraternities tattooed abo\e tlu-ii
heart or high up on the arms.
"This latter custom of collide si-croi
orders Is compulsory , " he point *
out , "and can hardly bo compared tu
the marks of Individual egotism r
extensively displayed. Of the ion
troet boys , 14 percent were tatoood
on the loft arm , S percent on the right
nrm and 10 percent on other parts of
the body , a total of 32 percent. The
marks were usually undo figures , ser
