WAR EASIER
IRAN WOMEN
CHARLES ClIItlSTEXSEX OF XKW
YORK DECLARES THAT BAT
TLEFIELD JIAS XO TERHOKS
EQUAL TO THOSE OK MATRI
MONY HE HAS TRIED ROTH
NEW YORK, April 9. "War and
matrimony arc the same thing. I'vo
been through both, and If I had my
cliolco I'd take the cannon game for
mine. Yes, I'vo heard Gen. Slier
man's definition of war, but he must
have been a bachelor."
It isn't to bo supposed that these
disparaging remarks will have a de
terrlng effect on persons about to in
tervlew the parson, but they go a
long way toward pioving that even
Cupid turns out a poor job occasion
ally. They also prove that when
Charles Christensen and his goo-1
wife Julia man led and settled down,
they didn't live happily forever after.
Thirty-four years have elapsed
since Charles and Julia consolidated
For six years they lived as one; for
next twenty-five they lived as ten
Julia being the one and Charlie the
cipher of the combination: for the
last three jears of the journey each
has been making an independent
parade. Charles had sixty-nine can
dle in his last cake, while his wife's
called for eight less. The climax of
their domestic difficulties was reach
ed when his wife had him before
Magistrate Higglnbotham In a Brook
lyn court on the charge of non-sup
port.
Justifies His Course.
Mrs. Christensen seemed the floor
eariy in the proceedings and blocked
her husband's efforts to tell his trou
bles, with the result that the Court
directed him to pay his wife $3 a
week until the case comes up for
disposition next week, when seen by
a World man at his stoie on Gates
avenue yesteiday Christensen was
more than willing to tell his tioubles.
He is a slightly-built little man with
a Joe Cannon hedge around his
countenance. Steel-rimmed glasses
mounted on a stubby nose and fast
ened behind a set of extra size list
eners give him a studious appear
ance. What he does to the English
language is entirely uncalled for.
"Julia had all the best of it in
court," he began, "but if I ever get
a chance to tell just a little bit of
my story I'll have the judge and
jury suffered could never ue torn
in ono afternoon."
"Is it true that you i'ave an as
sortment of affinities?" he was ask
ed.
"Do I look like that kind of a
man?" he demanded, with a show
of heat.
"As for my running around to
dances and parties, I haven't been to
one in a year. I'll admit I'm one
of the boys, but I'm one of the good
kind."
"She says you are anxious to mar
ry again?" suggested the lepoiter.
"She knows better than that. I've
told her seven thousand times that
if I ever got free I'd keep my name
for my own use. Marry again! Ha!
ha! I wouldn't marry the Statue
of Liberty if President Roosevelt
gave her away and she had the
United States mint for a dowry."
"What started all the trouble?"
"It doesn't matter now, but it
started right after wo moved to
Brooklyn from New York in 1880.
I don't blame Brooklyn for it.
Has n War Reconl.
"And don't think I haven't any
backbone," he added; "wait till I
prove it to you."
Christensen stopped talking long
enough to go to a drawer and drag
forth a bag of medals. Several of
them were for bravery In the Danish
war and ono was given him by the
King of Denmark. The others were
emblems of the different orders to
which ho belongs.
"The King doesn't decorate a cow
ard," said the old man proudly.
"Don't you think you deserve a
medal for living with a wife?" asked
tho reporter.
"A medal!" shouted Christensen,
"I deserve a monument. As com
pared with marriage war is a picnic.
I went through the Danish war and
I was shot up till I looked like a
window screen, but the only marks
I have to-day are souvenirs of my
married life."
Christensen says he is perfectly
willing to support his wife, but in
sists, that she shall take what ho Is
willing to give her.
"She left mo three years ago, he
said, "but she'll find the latch string
on the outside If she comes back.
We're both getting along In years
now and a few more disagreements
can't hurt anything."
RICH WIDOW'S CHOICE.
Holross to Business Blocks Falls in
Lovo With Hack Driver.
UTICA, N. Y., April 10. Robert
Williams, a hack driver, and Mrs.
Sarah McGarvey, tho widow of Wil
liam McGarvey, who, when ho died a

Spoiled Their Waltzing.
In hnr memoirs Mme. de BjIcTEB
g!es some interesting glimpses of
English social life. For instance, sne
rites:
"In 1810 no young English lady ven-
niiiii to waltz. The Duke of Devon-
shite returned from a tour in Germany
and observed ono evening at a largo
ball that a woman was never been to
better advantage than when waltzing.
I do not know whether he was anx
ious to play a trick, but ho repeated
this assertion several times, it was
passed from mouth to mouth, and at
tho next ball all the joung lames were
valtzing. The duke admired them
neatly, said that it was delightful and
iivo nroner animation to a ball. He
then added caielessly thut he, at any
rate, had decided never to marry a
lady who waltzed. It was to the
Duchess of Richmond and at Carlton
House that he saw fit to make this
revelation. The poor duchess, the most
clumsy of matchmaking mammas, near
ly fell off her chair with horror, hue
lepeated the statement to her noigu
bors, who passed it on, and consternn
.i,,n enronri from seat to seat. The
young ladies continued to waltz with
dear consciences. The oiu lames were
furious, but the unfortunnte dance was
concluded. Before the end of the even
ing the good Duchess of Richmond
was able to annouuee that lfer daugh
tor fnlt an obiectlon towaltzlng

SUICIDE DUE
10 FISHING
HUSBAND SUCH AN ARDENT AN
GLER THAT MRS. RUTZ FOUND
LIFE TOO LONELY, AND END
ED HER LIFE IN NEW YORK
A SAD GOOD.RYE.
NEW YORK, April 10. Mrs. Her
man Rutz, wife of Albert Rutz, of
No. 398 South Fifth street, Brooklyn,
committed suicide with carbolic acid
besause her husband persisted In go
ing fishing. Rutz Is a prosperous
salesman and the father of thiee chil
dren. When Rutz came home for dinner
he found his little ones playing in the
street. They said they had not seen
their mother for a long time. The
husband iound hispwife dead on a bed
with an empty carbolic acid bottle In
her hand. On a nearby table was a
note which read:
"Good-by to all. Kiss Paulino and
Emma. Give Paulino my watch, and
all my other things to Walter. My
life is too lonely to live. Albert, you
can go fishing now as much as you
like. I ain't in your way any longer.
I love you and only you. You told
me you woudl not go out with me
any more, so my heart Is broken.
Today I feel too bad to live. You are
away too much. I have nobody in
tho world." .
Rutz told the police that In the
morning before going to woik he had
told his wife that on Sunday he in
tended to go Ashing. He said that
3he did not raise any objection.
"I have a weakness for fishing," he
said, "and I have often brought my
wife back good catches, which she
used to distribute around among the
neighbors. I don't see why she killed
herseli because I like to fish."
WOMAN HAS SLEPT MANY DAYS.

Mrs. Hawkins was removed to the
