The special committee, on marriage and divorce submitted Its report, which waa In part as follows: People generally seek the sanction of the church when they desire to make marriage contract It Is the power of ministers to Erevent, In large measure, the miseries of asty and questionable marriages. Magis trates may pe found who will give the sanc tion of the state with Indifference, but the cautious conduct of ministers will at least save the church from scaiidal. We cannot expect the gospel to prevail as the power of God unto salvation If those entrusted with the proclamation of Its righteous luws and principles' fall to Impress men and women with the sanctity of ths church- and Ita condemnation . of alliances that disre gard the commands of Christ. important and recent decisions of the su preme court of the united States have called a halt upon lax and ruinous leg islation, and have filled with fear tho nun nd women who have disregarded family obligations, risked the dishonor and disin heritance of their children and defied the laws of states in which they claimed resi dence to find release In other states whose legislation promised greater license. One of these decisions boldly declares ' that America is a Christian nation and. that Christian standards should determine the validity of legislation. Thoae who Want a larger' freedom than that which may be provided by the principles of Christianity must tlnd it. It la hoped, outside this Chris tian nation or be quietly content with less license. Those who have paid Christian blood for this refuge and for the religious liberty which was secured should not sub mit to laws framed to secure a Godless laxity which destroys this liberty. There la an overwhelming majority of Christians in this Christian nation who are piedged to this reform and. who are set for the de fense of the family. Divorce evils are In the sweep of the vest current of reform which-is carrying away graft and fraud with everything else- that is destructive of virtue ana honesty. Legislation, however, is not th first hope of reform. Higher standards and stricter Judgment in the churches will compel legls- THE "ARNOLD" FINE KNIT BABY OUT- ... fit -;" ;': Wttg.-g.

BOSTON, May 39. The athletic repre sentatives of Cornell university closed a most., successful two 'days' engagement here today by winning the Intercollegiate championship for the second time. The Ithacana scored 3K points. 29 of which were made In the -distance runs. Pennsylvania was second with M points, Harvard third with 21 and Yale fourth with 19. The re msining points were scattered. One new Intercollegiate record was es tablished by Jackson of Cornell and Grant of Harvard, who cleared the bar In the. pole vault at 11 feet 10" Inches. The old record, made by. Bray of Yale at last years game, was a quarter of an inch lower. A stiff southwesler blew In the face of the runners in all the dashes and aapped much of the alrength of the long distance men. ' Pennsylvsnla, as was expected, proved stroma- in the dashes, capturing both. Has- 'klns of Pennsylvania- also took the mile. but the only other Quaker to score was Moffatt, who was tied with two others for second plsre In the high Jump. The great race of the day and the event which clinched Cornell's title to (he championship was the two-mile run. It was eipectea that Stone of Harvard and Hale of Yale would Aght It out again today, but the Cornell runners completely outdistanced them. In the last . quarter three Cornell men drew rapidly away snd sprinted as if they were in s 100-yard dash. Magof beat Trube to ths tape by a foot, while Will noose was a close - third. Tne tnree scored 10 points tor Cornell. About the same time Jackson of Cornell cleared the bar In the pole vault at a record breaking height and a few minutes previously the Ithacana had won a first and rourtn in tne quarter-mile. ' All ' doubt as to the out come waa then settled, but the half-mile brought I and the mile i additional points to the Ithacana The two sprints which closed the. afternoon eettled seoond place In favor of Pennsylvania, but it was not until uoge or Harvard n&d beaten one Robinson of Yale In the 220-yard dash, the final event of the day, thai third place went to Harvard. The feature ot the hurdle events was the running of Hubbard of Amherst and Castleman of Colgats.
