THIS MAHO.IJIS OK UUKENSliKllUY ON
ilAllltlAliK.
From an English Journal.
The Marquis of Queensberry lectured
on Tuesday evening at Baskerville Hall,
Dirmingbaui, on "Marriage and tbe Rela
tion of tbe Sexes." Tbe noble Marquis,
who suid be was aware that tbe views
contained in bis address would bring up
on his head a perfect storm of reproba
tion and odium, to say nothing of ridi
oule, contended that among tbe necessary
conoomitanta of our rigid monogamatio
system must be reckoned immorality,
murder, dishonesty in the relations be
tween the sexes, sooial rivalry wbicb
warps the nature of marriageable girls,
and a number of other evils. He was of
tbe opinion that mousgamy represents
the highest ideal of tbe sexual relation
ship, but thai tbe raoe ia far from having
attained to it, and that compulsion in the
matter breeds a great deal of evil without
achieving its purpose or bringing Ibe
achievement ot that purpose any nearer.
For tbe divorce whioh is obtained by de-
Ulibeiate infidelity be would substitute
tbe liberty to take another wife or a seo-
ond husband, without ridding one's self
of tbe first ; and would do away with
illegitimacy. That liberty being given,
be was of the opinion that sexual immor
ality would disappear, and might be dealt
with more strictly; and thai moral de
pravity and malignity, aa well aa phys
ical deterioration also, would cease to be
so freely perpetuated. It was of course
a question for women. He was assured
by a Mormon lady in particular, and by
world-wide evidence in general, that
jealousy la very much a product of eioial
custom; and bis hope was that when tbe
wives of Eugland realized how their priv
ileges rested upon tbs degradation of
hundreds of thousands of their sisters
tbey would be tbe first to advocate a
more natural law. In his proposal there
was no danger that tbe monogamatio
ideal would be forgotten, or would oease
to actuate tbe majority. Tbe experience
of an Indian tribe, in which it was adopt
ed, showed that not 10 per cent, ot mau
kind oould avail themselves of it, for
men would not lightly burden them
selves with a seoond partner dii! tbey
know that tber would be saddled with
ber during the rest of their lives. In
this matter tbe Roman church still bound
us in shackles as strong as tbe iron chains
ot tbe Inquisition. Surely the giving

The melanoholy death of Mr. Blaine
bas oaused a shook to every citizen ot
this great republio, regardless of political
allegiance, and every intelligent man,
woman and child will be eager to know
tbe secrets of tbe success of this truly
great man. They will also be eager to
know how it has been possible for a
man of snub humble origin and pre
tensions aa the desceased statesman to
rise to the point of playing so importaut
a part lu wielding the destiny ol his
oountry aa he has done. As is always
tbe case when a great man dies, tbe
market will be flooded with what will be
oailed his "biography." Many ot these
will be sb they usually are in such oases,
very little more than a collection of
clippings from old newspapers, and we
warn our so-called "biographies" of tbis
description, because they are compara
tively uniustructive and generally unre
liable, if not misleading. Whenever
there are several books written on ths
same subject, aud particularly when
that subject is the life of some noted
public man, there is always one of such
books that at once stands out head and
shoulders above all the others and that
is superior to them in every way. This
particular book beoomea the "standard
work" upon the subject treated of. We
think that "The Life and Work of
James i. Blaine," published on the
Pacific! ooaat by ibe Dominion Publish
ing Company, of Seattle, Wash., is
destined lo be the standard work on tbe
subject of which it treats. We tnhes
itaiingly express this opinion from Ibe

it. The book itself is written by Prof.
John Clail. P.ic'palh, L L. D , who is
unquestionably Amerioas greatesl living

on tbe work for over a year. In bis
great and laborious work Piof. Ridpath

BHB WAS HIS BON'S WIFK TOO.
A Strange Case as Fonad by an English Paper
as Oecurlng in America.
The following is sent us by an old
Boitonian, residing in Montreal, who
heard the case tried at Chicago: Council
was retained the other day in Chioago
in one of tbe strangest oases ever
brought to the notice of tbe public.
The facts ontdo those of Rider Haggard's
novels, and verify the old adage that
truth is stranger tban fiction. Tbe law
yer in tbe oaae is James W. Drouilleard,
and tbe client ia Samuel Clinton Willets,
who asks the lawyer to decide for him
whether a woman whom be married
about two years ago ia bis daughter.
About forty-five yeara ago, according tc
the story told the lawyer, Mr. Willets
was married to Miss Mamie Evana at
Erie, Pa. He was only 17 years old, while
she was just turning 16. Tbey went to
live with Mr. Willets' parents, and for
a year tbey were happy. At the end of
that time a baby girl waa born, and tbe
young couple were filled with joy. As
time passed dissensions arose aud quar
rels were frequent. A crisis waa at last
reaobed. One night when young Mr.
Willets returned from bia work bis wife
and little child were gone. Shortly
afterwards he beard thai bis wife bad
died. Six years after his wife had de
serted bim Mr. Willets married Caroline
8tevenB, a voucg girl whose parents
reside in n email town adjoining Erie.
In less than two years a son was given
to him, but his wife waa taken away.
He named tbe obild George. It grew
and prospered in health aud when 17
years old George entered ths employ of
Harding, Davis & Co, wholesale bard
ware dealers in Pittsburg. In a few
years he was sent on .tbe road by the
firm. Ou Christmas night, 1860, Mr.
Willets aat waiting in his apartments
for tbe return of bis son, who bad been
on tbe roadjbr three months, finally
the door (firjmt,h0$ tbejeloome visitor
came in. Til was ctotfs.-orie. With bim
be bad brought a young and beautiful
wife. She was a Miss Helen Wright,
and young Willets hsd met and won ber
in Cleveland, while traveling for the
firm. Both her parents had recently
died. Mr. Welleta took a strange fancy
to bia son's wife, and aa time flew on
it was difficult to say which loved her
the most, father or son. For twenty
eight yeara tbe couple lived happily
together, and old Mr. Willets seemed
contented. On December 18th. 1888,
George Willets died, after a painful
illness of aix months. A few months'
after bis son's death Mr. Willets and
his daniihter-in-law went abroad. A
singular attachment had sprnng up
between them and on January 1811 1890,
ther were married in West Kennington,
London, by Wayne MoLeonard, an
Episcopal minister. Shortly afterwards
they returned to America and devoted
considerable time to travel. Muoh of
their time they spent in Chioago, as
they eventually intended to make that
city their home. A few mouths ago
the possibility that be bad married bis
own daughter, began to dawn upon the
mind of Mr. Willets, and he was foroed
to believe that bis wife was the little
girl who bad been born to bim many
years before in Erie, Pa. Binoe then he
bas learned that bia first wife, after
deserting him went to Cleveland, Ohio,
wbere in less tban seven yeara, she
married a map named John Wright.
She brought ber little girl up under tbe
name ot Wright. Shortly after her
marriage ber newly found husband de
serted ber. She was left alone with her
dnugtter and iu a short timedied. Miss
Wright, left alone, sought employment
and earned her living until sbe met
George Willets iu a house In wbich sbe
was boarding, and fell in love with him.
Mr. Willets and his wife, or bis daugh
ter as be now calls her, are living on the
North side. Mr. Willets said that he
has sent a private detective to Cleveland,
Ohio, to trace the oateer of his first wife,
and that be daily expects news from bim

Deafness Cannot be Cared
By local applications, as tbey cannot
