THE DREAMER. The gipsies pased fcer little sate She stopped her wheel to see A brown-faced pair who wslked the road, i Free as the wind Is free) And suddenly her tidy room A prison seemed to be. Her shining plates against the Trails, Her snallt, sanded floor. The brass-bound wedding-chest that held Her linen's snowy store.
The very wheel whose humming died
Seemed only chains ahe bore.
She watched the foot-free gipsies paas She never knew or guessed The wistful dream thst drew them close The longing In each breast To some day know a home If ke hers. Wherein their hearts might rest. By Theodosta Garrison.

This Is positively good, and there la just as much reason for knowing tha Income of the agitator and the disturber as for knowing the profits of a successful corporation, which contributes to the wealthx and good fortune of the community in which it is located. There is no agitation without compensation. The fellow who mounts the courthouse steps and harangues the crowd which he is able to gather
about him is not wholly a disinterested patriot, giving his life and effort to the cause for which he speaks. He
is a professional agitator, and is com
pensated for his work. We assume that it is profitable compensation, too, because very few of them ever give up the wind-jamming task to follow and other pursuit. The public never
learns, and we doubt if many of the
contributors to the up-keep of agita
tion ever know just how much Is
made In the business of professional
disturbers. The world got an Import
ant bit of information in the trial of the Los Angeles dynamiters. It de-
eloped that Mr. Darrow, who was
always aching to give his talents and
his very , life itself , to the. service of
his struggling fellows, required $50,-
for the defense of the accused dyna
miters, whom he knew to be guilty of
unspeakable murder.

TEACHING OF SOUL-MATUTQ.
We shall await with bated breath
the plans that are being completed
for the establishment of a high school for matrimonial sciences in Muenich, Germany, or to give it its sonorous Teutonic title, "Hochschule der Helratswissenschaften." The
founder is Professor Dr, Walter Hassal. Dr, Hassall hopes that within a
month's time the academy will num
ber 500 students of both sexes These, on completing their course
will be awarded diplomas as teachers
of love, and will be expected to travel
the length and breadth of Germany
in order to make an active propa
ganda in favor of marriage
The curriculum at the high echcol will Include lectures by specialists on
the dangers of flirtation and the
beauties of all-sacrificing love. Ex
perta in zoology and biology will
illustrate their instruction by means of cinematographic displays, and will explain the interesting laws of
affinity and soul attraction and re
pulsion.
If the practice of educating the
young in these advanced matters be
comes general, the imagination simp
ly palls in conjuring up the future o
high school lads and lassies and th
possibilities of such education and

rvicKsy-wicKsy property owners
who are hopelessly in the minority and refuse to be convinced by the majority despite the fact that they
offer no valid reasons for their attl
tude cannot expect to be taken too seriously. When a playwright works
off a piece in which events run riot
characters say and do absurd things
and Indulge in impossible com plica
tions, we call the child of his brain
a farce or a travesty on life.
But when a few barnacles gather
to raise. hob and decry an Improve
ment which a city must and will have
hundreds of honorable citizens tak their false logic as tcuth sign the!
petitions, attend their meetings and give the anti-crowd the formidable
appearance of a bogey man. Sur
rounded by honest but misguided citizens the leaders are partially hid
from the public eye but if bared to the eye they could be seen as out-of-town property owners, or men who live in one city and work In another, men who because of poverty or outside interests are not concerned about

Dje. otxJ Jfxv. Jj&ZYjf JLagoszo They are married. Three priests, fifty policemen, a score of plain clothes detectives, an t..-my of servants anl attendants of all ranks and functions, combined last night to make possible the marriage of Dr. Frank A. Lagorio and Miss Ella Triner. Police clubs were used, a revolver was pointed at the crowd, there was incipient riot. Miss Emily HugRins, formerly of Hammond, rejected sweetheart of the physician, appeared to be about the only person in Chicago who did not try to interfere in one way or another with
the ceremony. She was nowhere to be
seen and there was a report that i.she had gdne out Into the country to wait for the event to get Into the past tense. Her absence was considered remarkable. Here is a partial list of the remarkable features: Twenty policemen tried In t vain to hold back the fighting, self-smothered crowd. A' riot call was turned In and It brought forth thirty more policemen. Hundreds of men and women Btood bareheaded in a thunderstorm : on neighboring roofs, on fire escapes, at

' The wedding cost, ali told, at least $50,000. At the wedding supper which followed there were $2,000 worth of orchids in a canopy over the bridal table, 1,000 bottles of rare wines were opened, more than $40,000 worth of presents to the bride were displayed. , . . There has never been such'aSreddlng before in Chicago. There la precedent for a few features of this wedding taken separately, but no precedent at all for the event as a whole. There Is only one way to tell the story of such a wedding, and that Is to begin at the beginning and hold fast to the train of events.

THE BREATH OF SCANDAL.
The hot consuming sirocco-like breath of scandal is. felt. in. Hammond
again. It promises to blast reputa
tions that have taken years to build
up. Those who are fathering it do not seem to realize the seriousness of
their crime for It is nothing short of criminal to malign the innocent. If
people who hear stories to the detriment of their friends or neighbors would only investigate before spreading false and malicious rumors it
would be a far happier world.
Scandal does no one any good.
Those who spread it surely cannot
get any satisfaction out of it, beyond a mere matter of a few exciting moments when they disseminate the hurtful information to those ignor
ant of it. After that moment of socalled triumph they cannot help but be ashamed of themselves. If the individual member of society would use one' tenth as much care in informing
prevaricators and knockers
It is preposterous to say that the
estimate of engineers for the propos
ed north side sewer in Hammond is over $350,000 too high; that the deep
sewer will only benefit certain sec
tions of the city; that Chicago will
allow Hammond to dump Its sewage
into the drainage canal should the
Calumet be drained and that city
officials are scheming to cut a melon.
Those are some of the talking points
which petitioners give the people
That the assesments are more than
some can stand is the only appealing reason advanced. But as Dr. villiam D. Weis has pointed out $16.85 is
much less than the smallest doctor himself of the truth or falsity of a
NEWSPAPER MALL. In an Interview recently published in The New York Sun a railway mail
superintendent, Mr. E. M. Norris,
said: "Of course our men are human and are just as likely to make a mistake as any one else, but these cases are not frequent." We wonder if the mass of complaints in regard to the poor delivery of newspapers comes from a cause deeper than that of making mere mistakes. It is, as the superintendent says, from a human failing, but is it not in a different way from that in which he meant? Does it come in some degree from an inherent inca
pacity on the part of mail clerks to regard newspapers as being not much
more important than circulars or ad
vertisements? As newspapers are classed under "second class" mail,
does the subtle notion get Into the minds of the men that there is no
need for hurry or despatch in hadling
them? An hour or two of difference.
perhaps they think, makes no matter in the delivery of a newspaper. We
mean this seriously. We do not refer to the railway mail clerks, but to the local clerks at the destination of the
newspaper. There is where some of the delay takes place. We have sometimes heard a box distributor
say that he hadn't "got round yet to

Times we think that we have located her:
"The Times man was much pleased Tuesday morning while making the rounds to see one of Chilton's handsome intelligent young ladies looking over the enameled ware and other kitchen utensils at one of the leading stores of the city. The younif lady, who learned to cook like mother did, will make a valuable partner for some good man and the story will appear in The Times soon.
