JOE FOX BOOMING

SUU1ER POLO

THE CUNNING POLO MANAGER

WANTS TO TRY AN UNUSUAL VENTURE.

HE WRITES FROM THE EAST

Would Limit the Salaries to $25 and

Here the League Would No Doubt Pail.

Indianapolis, Ind., January 29. Joe Fox has bobbed up with a new polo scheme and is trying to interest Central League players. Fox is at his home, Lowell, Mass., and is sending out letters saying that the Eastern Roller Polo League has been organized for the purpose of playing polo during the summer in New England. Most of the Central League players' homes are in New England and they are told that if they can pay their own way home and be ready to play one week after the Central League season ends they may get places in the Eastern League. The salary limit will be $25, according to a letter that Wodtke, of the Anderson Club, has received. Fox calls attention to the fact that professional roller polo during the summer months has never before been attempted, but he thinks it might be a go if the players would agree to his proposition. The letter does not say 1 what cities constitute the proposed Eastern League, but Dan J. Harrington, a New England polo promoter, is represented as the president. 1 Fox's proposition does not greatly interest the local players. The Central League players will not be ready to play again in. another league within one week after the Central season closes. Further, several of the well known players have other ' employment during the summer months. They doubt the advisability of playing when the weather warms up and they also fear that the public could not be held to roller polo after the season of baseball and other outdoor sports is on.

CHICAGO NOTED FOR DIVORCES

REPUTATION FOR MARITAL TROUBLES ATTRACTS ATTENTION OF INVESTIGATORS.

WILL PROBE EVERY PHASE

The number of students in the hijrh school will be so increased after the mid-year promotions have been made from Garfield that another instructor Avill be necessary, and the School Board has chosen C. E. Morris residing east of the city, for the position of assistant professor in several subjects. There are now 350 students enrolled in the high school and the prospect is that there will be fifty more enter on February 12. There is no mid year graduation and students are usually allowed to wait until June, when the entire class has its graduation exercises and receives diplomas. This will be done this year and the eight pupils who have completed four years of required work will continue their studies in the school, as postgraduates, until June when they will enter into the commencement exercises with the remainder of the class of 1906. Never before has there been such a large number of students in high, school and it is thought that every available room will be used as an assembly room for the pupils. The number has increased in the last few 3'ears from less than three hundred to over four hundred and each year the classes from Garfield are increasing. Only a small percent of those who enter the high school graduate, and theupper classes are only

a fraction ofthe size of the Freshman and Junior classes. There are 38 in the Senior Class and over 100 in the Freshman class. (

Intend To Find Out Which Are Most Successful, Church or Court Marriages.

Washington, Jan. 29. Chicago is to be given whatever distinction accrues from having its divorce records studied by officials of the United States government in advance of those of any other city in the union. In truth or in falsehood Chicago h is acquired a notoriety for marital troubles, and, as a consequence, the government, believing the field to be fallow, will send two investigators to the city to vset the investigation pace for the men who some weeks later will be directed to uncover divorce facts in other centers of population. The Chicago investigators will be given instructions to comment in their reports upon any specific cause which they may find for an unusual number of divorces within a given time. One of the officials in the census department said that the St. Joseph Gretna Green marriages would come under this head and that unquestionably facts of a decidedly interesting nature would be learned about the results of having a "marriage market" within a few hours' sail of a city of 2,000,000 people. The investigation which will begin in Chicago is the result of direct recommendation of President Roosevelt, who became interested in the subject of separation of husbands and wives as a corrollary to his feelings on the race suicide matter. The president sent a special message to congi-ess on the subject, a year ago, and as a result of this special message, Director S. N. D. North, of the census bureau, is planning to send out his investigators. Chicago people will be especially interested in the fact that this inquiry will not stop with the mere gathering of statistics showing the number of divorces granted in Chicago, but will go deeper into the very heart of things. It is the hope of the officials that they will obtain specific knowledge of the causes of all Chicago divorces and adequate information concerning what becomes of the children of divorced parents. President Roosevelt was led to send his message to congress at the time that he did by the pleadings 'of several clergymen who called upon him. Two of the visitors were Rev. Samuel W. Dike, secretary of ' the National Divorce Reform League, and Bishop Doane, of the Protest Episcopal Diocese of Albany. The clergymen spoke strongly upon the sanctity of Christian marriage and this has given the census bureau officials a happy thought. An attempt is to be made in Chicago to find out whether there are more divorces in proportion among persons married by. the courts than the are among persons married by the churches. Admittedly this will be something of a task, but if it be found that the proportion of divorces is greater among those bound by civil contract only than among those joined by the Christian ministry the churches of the country will have the text for a strong argumentative sermon. It is the belief current in all parts of the country that divorces are obtainable more easily in Chicago than elsewhere. The story to the effect that when a train arrives at the city on Lake Michigan, the brakeman calls out, "Chicago, thirty minutes for divorce," though decrepit in age, is not yet dead. Because of the belief that Chicago

courts .. facilitate the breaking of family 'ties, the census bureau investigators will strive to obtain knowledge of the number of applications the judges refuse to grant. . The causes pleaded in the applica- ! tions that fail of effect will be noted, J and thus the government and the people can tell to an extent the rule

of judgment upon which the courts of Chicago act in these matters. The order under which the inquiry is to be conducted includes a direction that the matter of marriage is to be investigated. Chicago, while it has the name of being willing to make the road to divorce easy, also has a name for making the road to marriage difficult. For this reason the officials believe that complete marriage statistics can be obtained in Chicago more easily than elsewhere. In 1SS6 divorce statistics were gathered by what was then called the department of labor. The statistics which will be compiled during the present year will cover the time which has elapsed since the last investigation. The difference in population will be determined, and a simple mathematical calculation will show whether divorces have increased in proportion more rapidly than has the population.

HIGH SCHOOL NEWS

Music in Chapel. There was no speaker in chapel at high school yesterday morning, but the orchestra played two very good selections, which were very much enjoyed by the students. There will probably be no more chapel this term as the term is very near a close. All the examinations-are to be held this week and the first of next. The Track Team. At the beginning of next term, at high school, a meeting of all track team candidates will be called and this year's track team will be selected. The candidates are all waiting patiently to go into practice, which will probably be held on the Earl I. am track. The weight men are already putting the shot in the school yard. Thanks from Chicago.
