Marriage Calls for
Nerve, Minister Says
In Pulpit Address
Omaha.—The Rev. Edgar Merrill
BiVjwd, pastor of the Diet* Memorial
Methodist church, who is being sued
for d-ivoree by his wife, has told his
congregation that “it takes a man of
nerve and a woman who is brave tc^,
face the marriage ceremony today.”
“Each time 1 unite a couple in the
holy bonds of matrimony,” he said, “1
say to myself: ‘Sir, you are a sports
man, tried and true.’
“There is no need for these men and
women, who will take a chance on
making a home in the midst of other
homes that are crumbling because they
are honeycombed with the evil of the
unseen force in the spirit of the times.
Without such men and women, Chris
tianity would fail.”
Device»«f Artful Swindlers.
Swindlers can invent artful dodges
to evade the laws rather faster than
the legislature can pass them. Their
devices are ingenious. A/few months
ago a frisky New York broker named
Callahan, who failed last week leaving
his customers $200,000 io the lurch, was
arrested for “petering.” The game of
petering is plaved in this fashion- A
salesman had unloaded 200 shares of
stock called “American Art Stores” on
a victim at $.r> a share. An urgent
telephone message came- to the pur -
chaser offering $8sa share. The victim
bought 300 more shares at $5 each, t
Them he found the telephone offer of $8
was a fake, and the.firm that was sui>
poped to be offering the $8 was a myth.
The victim had.Callahan arrested, but
could not make the- charge of grand
larcen-y stand up, and ibe broker was
released to go back to his brokerage
game, and ultimately to gyp a siring of
customers out of about $200,000,.—Ex.
Money Jn JFox Farming-,
Cordova.—Frank Townsend, pioneer
master mechanic of the Copper Raver
railroad, is on his way to his fox farm
at Controller Bay- He, says he has
done well raising blue foxes, He will
have fifty pairs for breeding purposes
this summer. The animals are domes
iieated and caught at the, feed houses
when wanted.
Mr. Townsend ships his furs to the
London market. He says that neglect
on the part of the fur farmers is the
only cause of failure.
