DAUGHTER'S PRANK RESULTS III DIVORCE

Parents of Helen Maloney Will Attempt to Annul Marriage to Student. OSBORNE MAN AFFECTED. AFFAIR IS OUTGROWTH OF CAPRICIOUS GIRL'S ELOPEMENT WITH SAMUEL CLARKSON, THE YOUNG ENGLISHMAN. New York, served today Osborne, the in an action Jan. !. Papers were upon Arthur Herbert young New York broker, to ann"l his marriage with Helen Eugenia Maloney, daugh-1 ter of Martin Maloney tae Philadel-j phia millionaire and Pupal Marcpiis. The action is for the purpose of enabling Miss Maloney to wed Samuel Clarkson, the youthful Englishman, with whom she eloped on October 1 of (last year. The disapoearane-3 of the couple,' their secret journey to Camilla, their reported marriacc in Montreal and their subsequent flight to Europe furnished one of the most remarkable international romances of the times. The courts have been asked to annul the Maloney -Osborne marriage as a sequel to a meeting between the Maouev familv and young Osborne last week in Philadelphia. In this meeting it was agreed that the childhood marriage of the millionaire's daughter and the Princeton student, two years ago, snould be wiped from the records. Both Miss Maloney and Mr. Osborne are said to have confessed that their wedding was a mock affair, and that each regarded it at the time as no more than a joke. Justice Boyd, now Postmaster of Mamaroneek, N. Y.. married the pair, and he has told of the affair as follows: "A young man and woman were married by me, whose names I have since found to be fictitious. I did not put them under oath at the time because they appeared to be so refined and well piliioatcd tlvit there sppmpd ., for floin The justice is said to be convinced that the marriat;e was inegal anrt will lntfcr,Jose no obstacles to the annulIt Does The Business.

TREASURERS HANDLE BUT LITTLE MONEY As They Pay Each Evening Through Warrant of Auditor. DEPOSITORY LAW CAUSE. Since the new depository law ha3 gone into effect the county and city treasurers have but little cash to handle. The fact that they have to deposit money every evening and that they pay through the warrant of the auditor or controller, which constitutes a sort of a check, makes the amount of cash which goes through the hands of the treasurers very small. Special Announcement Regarding the National Pure Food ond Drug Law. We are pleased to announce that Foley's Honey and Tar for coughs, colds and lung troubles is not affected by the National Pure Food and Drug law as it contains no opiates or other harmful drugs, and we recommend it as a safe remedy for children and adults.

By the middle of each September England will be dotted over with stacks of corn, and almost all of them when thatched will be crowned with a wisp of straw tied on to a stick or a pitchfork and looking at a distance about as much like a bird as a scarecrow looks like a man. This almost universal aud apparently nieaniugiss custom is a relie of the pagau times before the Roman conquest, when the tillers of the soil killed a human victim to propitiate the spirit of the corn and buried him or part of him in the stack. Our wisps of straw represent the effigy which ia later days was substituted for the victim. Traces of this superstition are found ali over the world and iu almost every century, survivors of the dim ages when man looked upon the gifts of nature as a boon to be bought with a price of bloodWestminster Gazette.

LIGHTHOUSEjEEPERS Weird Vigils of the Men In the French Service.

TOIL THAT BREEDS MADNESS. Th Only Wonder Is That Any of These Lonely Workers Escape Insanity Pitiful Plight of the Isolated Keeper at Four en Finisterre. A French writer, telling of the life of the lighthouse keepers aUng the coast uf Brittany, thinks it strange that any of them escape insanity. The system of relief that prevail In this country has no equivalent in the French service, and. with short intervals, mouths apart, a French lighthouse keeper may spend firty years vf his life tending the lamps iu tne station, with a singie companion, and that station niny lie on a rock out in the channel or the bay of Biscay, which boats can approach only in tin? weather. As a matter of fact, the men often do become insr.ne or at least develop monomania. Sometimes it takes the form of hatred of each other. In one case, at Terennec. one of two men was found by a party who came off from the shore in response to signals lying dead in his bed with a long keen Haded knife through his heart. Ills companion's story was that he had committed suicide after a long period of melancholia. There was no proof to the contrary, but after examining the wound the authorities doubted the truth of the story. On another occasion, where father and son tended an isolated beacou together, the young man was seized with an attack of acute mania. When the time came to light tip he planted himself in front of the stairway to the lantern and refused to allow his father to ascend. The old niau attacked his son and. finding he could subdue him in no other way, so that the lights on which so many lives depended might be kindled, strangled him to death. The next day he signaled to the shore for help and gave himself up to the police, telling what he had done. Sickness and death are no strangers in the lighthouses. There is ninctyuine times out of a hundred no chance of medical aid, and the well man prescribes from the medicine chest for the sick one as best he can. He also doe? double duty until his partner recovers or relief comes. There are not infrequent cases when the survivor has to sew up his dead comrade in a hammock and launch his weighted lwdy from the rocks Into the sea. Then come long nights of lonely watching. In winter time the lamps must be tended and the clockwork kept going for fourteen to fifteen hours. The lantern is unheated except for the glow of the lamps up in its ceiling, and the government allows the watcher no chair lest he fall asleep. It is no wonder that weird fancies come to the men. Tbey hear voices calling from the sea and see drowned men and women looking up at them from the breakers. One of their horrors is of the birds that beat against the windows of the lantern at night, attracted by the glare. Just as is the case with American lighthouses, the feathered armies that migrate at night beat against the walls and balconies of the beacons with their wings and dash against the panes of the lantern, sometimes breaking the glass with their beaks. As their eyes shine in the glare they seem to express anger or bloodthirstiness to the men within. One of the most pitiful stories of lighthouse life is told of the keeper at Four en Finisterre, who kept all alone a station ou an isolated rock a couple of miles out from the shore, but so surf beaten that only once a month or so was a boat sent out to it with supplies. The cabin in which the keeper made his home was on the shore opposite his lighthouse, and the recreation he most enjoyed was watching it through his telescope. He could see the people go in and out and the children playing in front of it. One day he saw something fluttering from the door Jamb. He was puzzled. Then it flashed on him that it was crape and that some one had died in the house. Was it his mother, be wondered, or his wife or one of his brothers? He counted the children later in the day, and they were all right. The wind blew, and the water raged. No boat could come near him, and he watched the crowd of sympathizing friends come and go. Theu he saw the funeral. He recognized the cure at the head of the procession by his white surplice and the altar boys walking beside him. Then came the coffin, carried by six men. As the mourners walked after it he strained and strained his eyes trying to Identify each and thus determiu the missing one. But in vain. All walked with bowed head. The women's faces were buried in their bandkerchiefs; the men held their hats before theirs. He could make out nothing characteristic. The men who eight days later risked their lives to row out to him and break the nws of his wife's death fouDd Lim a physical and mental wreck from sleepless anxiety. P.ut he bad kept the light burning faithfully all the time. The French lighthouse keepers receive from 700 to 9f0 francs a year fHO to flOO. When they are worn rut they retire on a pension of $6.80 a month. Chicago Fecord-llprald.
