CUPID IS LOSING HIS HOLD.
Divorces in Canada Show Rapid In
crease in Recent Years.
Ottawa, Ont., Feb. 23. One of the
most noticeable features of the legisla
tive program at the present session of
the Dominion parliament is a long list,
for Canada, at least, of divorce appli
cations awaiting hearing before the
senate. They are as many in number
as were granted during the 20 years
after the confederation.
The average divorce application pre
sented to the senate costs upward of
$1,000, and this is a good deal more
than the aggrieved husband or wire
can ordinarily afford. Between 1888
and 1900. a period of 12 years, the
number of divorces granted was 35,
and at this session of parliament, u an
applications are successful, the num
ber will be 24.

MANY ON PENSION ROLL.
Little as It Is, John Bui
Makes It
Hard to Get.
London, Feb. 22. England, Scot
land, Wales and Ireland have 596,038
old age pensioners, according to official
figures just made public. Previous
statements of the number have been
mere estimates and nearly 100,000 too
low. A large number of claims are
also under consideration. When they
have been acted on, estimating again,
the total will be about 600,000.
The United Kingdom's population
at the last census was 42,000,000, so
that about one person in 70 is on the
old age pension roll. Inhabitants as
much as 70 years old, the lowest pen
sionable age, number only 1,254,286,
however. This means that nearly half
the country's population of the requir
ed age is poor enough to claim the ben
efit of the act.
Of the 596,038 pensioners, 539,388
receive the full allowance of $1.20
weekly. , To receive, this amount it is
necessary for the applicant to prove
that his private income does not ex
ceed $1.92. Those whose incomes do
exceed this amount are pensioned only
enough to bring the total up to $3.12
weekly.
Of the 658,248 who have been re
fused or have not asked pensions, it is
not to be presumed that all or even a
large proportion have private incomes
exceeding $3.12. Anyone who has ever
received public relief even to the ex
tent of having a tooth pulled at a pub
lic dispensary or has been accidentally
injured and carried unconscious into a
public hospital is classed as a pauper
and is, as such,, ineligible. Ihe same
applies to anyone ever convicted even
of a minor offense, or who has been at
any time in his life a permanent resi
dent of a foreign country
As illustrating the varying degrees
of prosperity in different parts of the
United Kingdom, 38 per cent of the
English and Welsh pensionables are
receiving pensions, while in Scotland
the percentage is 49 and m Ireland 98
PANIC AMID FLAMES.
Large Steamer Burns and 200 Lives
Reported Lost.
Buenos Avres. Feb. 22. The Argen
tine steamer President Roca. from
Southern ports, acccording to reports
received here, has been wrecKed be

the crew and 200 nassengers have per
ished. It is reported also that the
steamer sank.
Press dispatches received here this
afternoon state the flames spread witn
crrpat raniditv and the steamer was
headed into shore as rapidly as possi
ble. A panic prevailed and many lives
were lost, some of the estimates reach
ing as high as 200. The President
Roca was on her way north from Puer
to Madrid to San Antonio.
Later official messages report that
the vessel sank, but only Z0 lives were
lost. Three hundred and fifty passen
gers and members of the crew were
saved, according to these advices.
The Presidente Roca belonged to the
TTamhurc South American. She was
the larcest steamer trading regularly
between Buenos Ayres and the North
ern ports of the republic.
DECIDES SPOKANE RATES.
Ru'nored Commission Favors Conten
tion of Coast Cities.
Washington, Feb. 22. The Inter
atatf Commerce commission has reach
pd a decision in the Spokane rate case,
and will announce its findings this
week. It is rumored that the decision
is favorable to Portland and other
Coast points and adverse to the Spo
kane contention.
The commission, according to report.
holds that Snokane is not entitled to
as low a rate on Eastern shipments as
are cities on tidewater, whicn nave tne
advantage of water competition. No
member of the Interstate Commerce
commission seen today would discuss
the decision, and it is theretore impos
sible to confirm the rumor.
Weavers Boycott A.-Y.-P
Tokio, Ftb. 22. Resenting theanti
.Tnnanese sentiment recently expressed
throughout the length of the Pacific
coast of the United btates, the Ashi
kaga Weavers' league at its last meet
ing decided that it would not partici
pate in the Seattle exposition. The
weavers declared they were willing to
sacrifice SI. 000.000 in export trade
rather than attend the fair. A com
mittee of the league will meet tomor
row to discuss the feasibility of send
in emissaries throughout Japan to

Powers Will Mediate.
London, Feb. 22. One or more of
the neutral countries will very shortly
offer good offices to Austria and Servia
in the hone of settling their differen
ces. Who will direct this has not been
rWiHed. hut in anv case it will not be
Great Britain. The indications point
to the selection oi 1 rancc, anu mere
is reason to believe that such a pro
posal would not be at all distasteful to
AuftrU-Hiingary as they are on the
best of terms.
Wireless for Railroads.
Omaha, Neb., Feb. 22. Dr. Fred
Millener, experimental electrician of

eral months. I
