The Nickerson divorce proceedings ic
Pennsylvania, says the Nation, have at-
tracted wore attention than gsaal in sach
cases, owing to the military rank of the
tinsband, and the peculiar cruelty of the
fraud alleged to have been practiced on
hig wife. It has forced upon the judges
the necessity of taking some precaution
against such frauds, and they held a
meeting to consider the necessity of
drawing up new rules of practice in di-
vorce cases. The facts as presented to
the court by Mrs, Nickerson were in
substance as follows: The laws of Pean-
sylvania, like the laws of other states, re-
quire a short period of residence to give
the court jurisdiction. Major Nickerson,
therefore, in the first place, acquired a
residence, In addition to this he packed
his wife off to Europe with her daughter.
This was in 1880. In Europe the daugh-
ter and mother remained, the Major
promising to follow as soon as he could
obtain leave of absence. She waited, but
he did not come, though be continued
to write regularly until about a year ago.
About that time letters and remittances
began to be sent to his daughter, and be
ceased all communication with his wife.
Sbe asked him to explain, but he paid
no attention to his letters, Finally she
learned from her mother that her hus-
band had obtained a divorce, and had
married again, He had married, it seems,
un few days after he had got his divorce,
which showed, of course, that the object
of his application was merely to marry
again. More than all this, she learned
tbat the ground on which the divorce
was obtained was desertion. No notice
of application had ever been received by
her, there having been nothing but a
newspaper advertisement. The whole
proceeding was conducted by the plain-
tiff in the absence and without the kaowl-
edge of the wife.
Various remedies are proposed to meet
the diflicalty in Pennsylvania. Beveral
of the judges are in favor of making dis
vorce more difficult by making it more
expensive, as they say that people come
to Pennsylvania for divorces rather than
go to some western state, because they
know they can obtain them there at
bottom prices. Something like the
“high licence” plan in liquor legisiation
is therefore proposed-—a fee in divorce
cases sufficiently high ($500 is said to
have been suggested by one judge) to
make a divorce trip to Penn’a unstirac-
tive. Of course the effect of this would
only be to make it difficult for poor peo-
ple, and it would constitute 8 curious
kiad of reform. The suggestion of a high
divorce fee recalls the story of the Eng-
lish judge's sentence of 8 poor prisoner
for bigamy, who pleaded ia excuse that
his first wife had run off with another
man: “What you should have done,”
he said to the prisoner, “was to obtain a
divorce. This, you will probably say,
would have cost you 1,000 pounds, while
you have not 1,000 pennies in the world,
I have to remind you, however, that that
can make no difference, for England is
not a country in which there is one law
for the rich and another for the poor.”
The requirement of a long term of resi-
dence is what is really needed to prevent
fraudulent divorces, and also the aban-
donment of the antiquated practice of
publishing notice by advertisement, ex-
cept in cases where the defendant really
cannot be found. There could have been
no difficulty, if Mrs. Nickerson's story is
true, in petting 8 notice to her through
the mails,

PERSONS DROWNED AT A
LAUNCH AT GLASGOW,
London, July 3.~Intelligence has just
reached this city of an uousoal and ter-
rible calamity during the launch of a
steamship at Glasgow to-day, The vessel
to which the disaster happened was the
steamer Daphne. While she was being
launched she fell on her side, precipita-
ling a number of people into the water.
According to the dispatches thus far re-
ceived sixty persons were drowned. The
accident occurred ia the middle of the
river Clyde after launching,
The following particulars about the
digaster to the steamer Dapune have
come to hand : The steamer left the
ways at a very fast rate, and when she
gained the water she rolled from side
tw side. The persons on board, fearing
that she would capsize, ran to and fro,
The vessel finally reeled over and nearly
disappeared beneath the water, Anoth.
er dispatch says that the caase of the
Daphue’s capeizing was that she had too
mach tow weight. Many dead bodies are
visible through the port holes of the
ship.
According to the statements of the wit
nesses and survivors of the disaster the
vessel left the ship too rapidly cansing
her stern, which entered first, to sink in
the water. She was then caught by the
strong carrent of the river by which, as
well as by ber top weight, she was cansed
to keel over so far that the water entered
her ports, A diver states that
pantionway of the

work below when the ship went over
rushed from their work became

med ia the
bodies still have tools in their hands.

A catfish and walersnake got into a
fight in a mill-race at Norristown the
other day, making the water boil and
foam with their gyrations, The fish had
the snake by the middle and the snake
had the fish by the tail. The fish would
jump clear out of the water, carrying its
an nist with it. One of the men
standing near took a stick and threw
them out unto the land and killed the
snake, bat it was not until its head was
beaten into jelly that it would let loose
its hold. The fish was thrown back in-
to the race, and for a time swam around

INFLUENCE OF THE

The influence of the soil upon the health
of those living upon it, is brought out ver,
plsinly during the prevalence of epidem ©
disenses. That malarial disenses (like ins
termittent fovers) originate from the soil,
is alrondy excepted ; nud recent investiga-
tions show pretty conclusively that the
gorms of Cholera, Abdominal Typhus,
Yellow Fever, and the plague are in some
way connected with the soil, which is
daily corroborated by letters from all
parts of the country, stating marvelous ef-
fects of Peruns on those diseases, and in
