took a "reading/* After the profes

sor had sized up the lines on his  

hand and told Wiggi ns what he 

might expect to happen to him, Mur- ro then proposed to take bis subject  out some place where there was  nothing but the st irs and the moon  overhea d. It was claimed that secrets  could there be revealed which would  be impossible in the narrow confines  of a hotel room.

Detect ive Wiggins asked the professor where they would go. Murro  said he would take him on the roof  of the Les lie house. Wiggins had no desire for such a lofty position and 

declined .After securing the evidence, Coun

ty Deteeth e Logan made an information before Alderman Morrison  charging Murro with violat ing the  law regarding fortune tell ing. He was arres ted Wednesday evening,  spending Wednesday n ight and the greater part of Thanksgiving in jail ,  and finally was released on $500 bail  in t ime to get h is Thanksgiving supper.

Prof. Murro claims that palmistry  is a science and that he is not to be  classed with the ordinary fortune teller.

Madame Julian , who was arres ted  Friday morning, has been located at  .“.0 1-2 West W ashingto n stree t, in the build ing formerly occupied by Fannie Swadener. She gau» readings to " ladies only.” Detect ive Wiggins  shadowed her p lace Wednesday,  Wednesday n ight and Thursday, securing a large l is t of names of women  who visited her. At 8 o’clock Thursday evening s ix women were seen to  enter Madame Julian’s rooms in a body. Many of the women and girls  belong to prominent families. It b  probable that the more prominent  will be subpoenaed as witnesses.

Malame Julian sftys In her literature that she is from Toronto, Canada. She professe s to be able to tell young women whom they should  

marry, what they are to do, where  they are to l ive and many other th ings which are supposed to cause  the young ladles many s leepless  nights.

Madame Julian is supposed to have  read the hands and to have told th*  fortunes of many prominent women  in this and other countr ies. In som* places she claims to h ave received $5 a reading but here she cut the pric* to $1 or 50 cents, according to tbi  kind of a reading desired.

Madame Julian also professes  locate diseases and to gtve advic<  what was best to be done. The  formation against her was made  fore Alderman Ranney. County tecttve Logan Is the prosecutor  both cases. Madame Julian furnish*.,, bail for a hearing.

Madame Julian stated to a News  reported that when she came to thb  

| city she went to se e the c ity officials,  j "They told mejj she said "to go 

ahead and carry on phrenology of th*  head and hands in a legitimate way.  that if anyone complained they would  notify me to quit.

MORE WIVES DESERT

THAN HUSBANDS

J. OTTLEY CORBETT

TO WED THIS WEEK

Coming as a surprise to his main  

friends in this city, is tl.e news of the  

coming marriage of j. Ottle y Corbett |of this city, to Miss Edith Swan of iProvidence, It. I., which will take place  at Pittsburg, this week.

Since coming t.o t h i s city,about a year ago Mr. Corbett has made many friends.

He is in the employe of \V. S. Kuhn  jand company of Pittsburg, and will jP’obably bring his bride to this city!to reside.

The militant suffragette glared—then  

she smiled grimly. The M. S. had just 

learned, from glancing over the census  bureau’s statistics, that 10.5 per cent of  the divorces granted to men were for the cruelty of their wives.

"False,” was the comment that accompanied the glare.

"Serves ’em right,” went with the  grim smile.

It really is a sad story, though.  Fancy th** census bureau finding out that the pathetic story of the deserted jwife whose husband has gone to parts  unknown, leaving her to slave for the! hoirm alone, is losing a great deal of its1force by reason of the fact that moreiwives are deserting husband,» than husbands are deserting wives. The fig-' ures, cold and convincing, compiled by jreliable statisticians, can not be argued with; they record the fact that of  divorces obtained hy the American  man for the desertion of his wife the  percentage is 49.4, while the figures  for the desertion of the wife by tne  husband are only 33,6. Well may the militant suffragette smile grimly. It looks as though the American wife  were becoming a more independent creature than the American husband.

For this last development there is a  reason that is obvious to any one. The

girl of the present day is as well able’

to earn her living as her husband. If  

marriage prove« a failure in her case  

she has only to tell her unsatisfactory  

husband that she has resolved to sup

port herself and live apart from him,  and he knows well that he can no longer hold over her head the club of poverty because of the loss of his earnings. She can support herself these days.

Blit about that cruelty charge. It sounds almost Incredible, but. here are  again the census bureau’s indisputable figures to show that reviewing the  causes for divorce during the past forty years it has been discovered that  the legal separation of husband and wife in consequence of the cruel treatment of the husband by the wife has increas ed 1(309.8 per cent. No less than  10.6 of the diverces granted to men  during the period reviewed by the bureau were for cruelty on the part of  the wife.

As to the form that this cruelty to  the poor husband takes, the cunsus  bureau is silent. It is not the business of the statistical department to delve  as deep as that into causes. But it surely must have been a sufficiently  cruel type of cruelty to induce an American jud ge to grant a divo rce to th«*injured husband. Now that our girls are being systematically trained in the  gymnastic classroom at the school-  house and the anaemic woman is becoming a rarity, it behooves the American husband to practice diplomacy in the home or take lessons in the art  of dodging rolling pins and broom  handles.

But with her insreased ability to  chastise her husband, as shown by the census bureau’s figures, there has also  come, it is really too bad to have to record. an increase in the vice that has  been considered one peculiarly belonging to men -that of drinking to excess The figures show that the increase of drunkenness among women, as shown by divorces granted for this  cause, is 554.5 per cent. In fact, this  reason for divorce comes second In the  list, according to the census statistics.

The men have still a little the best of in in tie- race for divorce on  the alcohol line, for, while the increase  among women has been recorded as  554.5 per cent, the drunkenness of  husbands has increased 699.9 per cent.

It is appalling to note that in the  Fnited States 73 divorces are annually  granted to «very 100,000 of population.  '1o the same number of persons Ireland  annually grants less than 1. England  2, Italy 3, Austria I, Scotland 4, Germany 15, France 23, Switzerland 32 and Japan 215. Switzerland, with a ratio of 32, comes next to the United  States, but this country wins by a huge  majority in the general run.
