Judge Koger Fryore
Roger Atkinson Pryor, Brigadier-
General of the Confederate Army and
Justice of the Supreme Court of New
Tork, died recently at his home In
that city, in his ninety-first year.
Judge Pryor's life story is hound up
with many famous incidents in
American history. Born in Virginia,
he was naturally a stanch advocate
of State rights, and as such was elected
to Congress in 1839. The firing on
Fort Sumpter is said to have boen
caused by a fiery speech made by him
In Charleston in 1861 ; the story further
runs that he refused to pull the lanyard
of the cannon that fired the first shot.
In 1855 he was appointed Minister to
Greece, but this was his sole diplomatic
adventure. When the war came he en
listed and soon became a brigadier- j
general. He later resigned his com- ■
mission, re-enlisting as a private, but \
was taken prisoner at the battle of
Bull Run. A few weeks before the close
of the war he was released by _prder
of President Lincoln, whose close friend
ship he enjoyed during his stay in
Washington.

"SALOME"
To-day the Strand Theater, Steel
ton, presents Theda Bara in "Sa
lome." This mammoth production
was a big sensation at ail of the
leading photoplay houses in the
large cities and it created much
comment at its recent showing In
Harrisbttrg. The east numbers in
the thousands and the producers
have woven the whole drama around
the Biblical description. The whole
production follows' the Bible us
closely us possible, and the patrons
can be sure to see a play that is
both entertaining and Instructive.
The play shows the King Herod ot
ancient times, with his passion for
beautiful maidens nnd wine. John
the Baptist is shown defying the
Roman ruler nnd by faith overcom
ing the wiley of the beautiful Prin
cess Salonte.
Little Talks by
Beat rice Fairfax
One more tale has come to mo
| of a young married pair who took
i die risk of starting life with parents
in-law.
And an unwise risk it proved to
be, in this, as in so many other un
happy cases. For it is a sad little
story that is told by a sympathetic
friend of the young wife.
Over and over again one wonders
at the eager, kindly stupid and al
together masculine blindness that
leads a young bridegroom whoso
mother is loath to part with him,
to insist that his bride shall come
to live under the same roof with his
parents.
Here's the supremely happy ar
rangement for everybody, he cheer-,
fully tells himself. A lonely father
cheered up, a slightly jealous mother
pacified, and bride allowed to begin
married life without a responsibility
worth mentioning. How could there
possibly be a more sensible and sat
isfactory sort of operation?
And the bride, of course, keeps
her disappointments and misgiv
ings to herself. They would hurt
somebody's feelings if she ex
pressed them. Her wise young hus
band is probably right after all.
AiiU'lt won't matter if for a time
she can't have her own "things"
about her, and her own friends. It
won't matter that she can't have
lier husband to herself, and that
they can't pursue the deliriously
awkward experiments of their early
married life without the constant
presence of critical lookers-on. Or
rather it would matter, but she'll pre
tend it doesn't. She'll be, in short,
the victim.
Faults of Motlier-hi-l.aw
And as to the working out of
such a project, the letter I've al
ready spoken of furnishes the de
tails, in this household, the young
husband meets most of the ex
pense and the young wife does
most of the housework. The letter
goes on:
"The mother-in-law seems to
keep the poor girl in hot water all
the time. Hast spring the wife
lost her baby before it was time
for its birth, after one of the ner
vous attacks she has been having.
The mother-in-law acts as if she
could hardly stand the wife around,
yet"insists that the husband stay
and help support the parents.
"To be just, the wife is rather
high-strung from being ill, but
the mother-in-law is very conceited
j and headstrong, and runs to her son
with all kinds of tales she imagines
j she has grounds for. And, of course,
I the wife, out of lovo, and not want
ing to make it any harder for her
husband, says nothing, but.gets thin
ner and more unstrung all the time.
"Some blame may bo laid to this
girl for not standing up for her
rights, yet anything she said or did
would be twisted and turned to make
it appear against her."
T wish T felt sure that the young
husband in this case will come to
see the family situation as it is, and
insist that his wife have her own
home, and freedom.
But he's probably a nice, be
wildered, altogether dense young
man, who will keep on balancing
his wife's side of the case against
hts mother's and imagining it's his
duty to remain neutral. The kind
est husband in the world can't al
ways see his way out after he has
let himself become the blindfolded
center of a domestic tangle of lovo
and jealously and unfairness.
Hints for Young Lovers
But it's tha kind of story that I
wish young people who aren't mar
ried yet. the blissfully engaged ones,
who believe that perfect happiness
is only a lap ahead of them, would
consider carefully.
Perhaps marriage is going to bo
sweet and serene and successful for
all of them. But none of them can
be sure that at any moment there
won't come some turn in family af
fairs which will seem to suggest
that they sacrifice that freedom
they've dreamed of, that sweet in
timate life together. Somebody has
died or somebody is out of a job or
somebody is lonely or somebody is
poor. And in any case, somebody
wants to sap their youth and hope
and health and happiness.
It really isn't fair.
It ma ybe necessary. 1 know. And
in such a case the newly wedded
ought to make their sacrifice gay
hearted ly.
But usually it'isn't necessary.
It's merely expedient or economi
cal. Tt's the plan of somebody who
is timid or prudent. I'm sure it's
scarcel yever prompted by real
wisdom.
And If the older generation were
as wise as they believe themselves
to be, they would protect young |
lovers from risking their married
happiness in family co-operation.
Co-operation is an excellent prin
ciple. 1 believe in applying it to
almost every department of life.
But it ought to be practiced by
people who aro on the same foot
ing. And the trouble with these
family experiments is that the older
woman and the younger are not on
the same footing. The older one
dominates and the younger one
suffers. And so a continual strug
gle goes on that mukes everybody
miserable, and that ruins forever,
perhaps, the marriage that has been
so inauspieiously begun.
Itoom for Newly weds
A newly married pair need room
to make their mistakes in. ' They
need privacy to be foolish in. They
need time, and opportunity to talk
together about the multitude of new
problems that they've undertaken,
and that it's such happiness to tackle,
blunderingly, hand in hand.
They have really to get acquainted
with each other. They have to
study each other's temperaments
and habits. And they can't manage
in with lookers-on.
If you're a mother with a mar
ringable son, make up your mind
when he tlnds that pet feet girl he's
looking for, to let him go away
from you. You can't share him
between you. It won't work. Don't
be a short range mother-in-law.
They're responsible for a vast amount
of unnecessary unhuppiness.
.Mothers-in-law who keep at a tactful
distance are the ones who have the
reward of being loved.
Let the bride and l.ridegrcom in
your family draw nbcut themselves
a magic circle. And in the interests
of love, of harmony, of successful
marriage see that you remain out
side.
