declared that any one who denlred to get a di-
vorce in South Dakota would have to live there

quirement previously, the seeker of relief from
present matrimonial ties began to take, the long
journey westward to Nevada, where- II takes but
a nix months' residence to be in a position to go
before the courts of the state as plaintiff In u
divorce suit. • • v ■>
bV.'M. 8Chntt*er. a Iteno divorce specialist, has
written n treatise on divorce practice ami pro-
cedure, In which he throws an illuminating ray
on the wherefore of the popularity of iteno as a
divorce center. He says:
‘)Vhile the laws of the eastern and middle
western states generally contain some provision
lor the dissolution of the marriage tie, it Is ob-
vious to the reader that In cases where extreme
cruelty, desertion, and failure to provide form the
basis of the grievance, t,ho lqw ipjsuch states of-
fers no substantial relief, to the aggrieved party,
because the requirement's- of proof, duration of
offense, corroboration of plaintiff and procedure
under court rules are so exacting and irksome
that the desired relief sought by the applicant is
rendered impossible of attainment. Summing up
the situation ns it exists in the eastern slates
respecting the domestic relation law, the client
when consulting local counsel is almost Invari-
ably advised that upon the facts submitted ho or
she is without remedy. Here ii> Nevada the ap-
plicant, without deception or fraud, upon
almost any charge from which lark of harmonious
relations may be reasonably inferred, may apply
lo our courts and secure prompt results by de-
cree of absolute divorce, valid and binding in
law ”
While there are about 54 cases now on the
docket of the district court, there are in Reno
to-day over 350 Individuals establishing a resi-
dence for divorce purposes, u majority of whom
are women.
The charms of Nevada as a divorce c»mter
liatrT only just begun to percolate into the cou-
setousness of the outside world.
Reno has no objection to the present status
of affairs. It Is estimated that the revenue of the
town from the divorce colony at present Is close
to 11.000,000 a year, stid that it will rapidly In-
crease from this on To a community of hut 1k.-
ooc population this is no small consideration.
Wh» Reno is preferred to any other communi-
ty in the state as a place of residence by those
seeking divorces ia because of tke manifold ad-
Chwrch of Sacred Heart and Funicular
Railway Leading Up to It.
A’s/yo’j /7At//0tAJ//te,jj *Sres/r
come back for several days It might be men-
tioned In this connection that the divorce colony
has brought to Reno over 100 motor cars.
The leading hotels are always crowded, and
the renin for cottages have appreciated, on the
average, to the extent of 50 per cent, in the last
six months. In some instances the increase has
been much greater. One cottage that rented for
$00 a month in January last, now returns its own-
er a rental of $100 a month.
Perhaps the tine thing that endears Reno to
the visiting divorcee more than anything else is
its proximity to San Francisco, one may board a
train in Reno and be in the Pacific coast metrop-
olis in ten hours. Despite its manifold attrac-
tions, life in Reno is likely to wear irksome upon
those who have been used to existence in larger
renters, and the visitors, to a great extent, soon-
er or later during their stay, take a trip or half
a dozen trips, over the Sierras to the city by the
Golden Gate.
Such visits, while affording relief from the
monotony of life in Reno, do not impair the resi-
dence qualifications necessary to the obtaining
of <t divorce. To again quote the Nevada divorce
authority already mentioned:
“Under the provisions of Section 22 of the
Marriage and Divorce act, the plaintiff must re-
side in the state for a period of at least six
months. This is not construed to mean that in
order to fully comply with the statute the party-
must remain here continuously for said period.
So, if a party comes to Nevada, and, in good faith,
takes up a residence, the party may leave the
state at any time after establishing residence,
may go and travel when and wherever the party
chooses, and may return to the state whenever in-
clination prompts, and yet such temporary ab-
sence would not in any wise affect the legality of
the residence established, but the party would be
entitled under the law to bring stilt any ttine
after the lapse of six months from the date resi
denco was originally established, notwithstanding
the party's absence front the state during said
period.”
Hissed somewhat by the tinancial seductions
of the situation, and yet to learn the lesson that
such a state of affairs can only result in the mor-
al degradation of the youth of the community—a
lesson which caused South Dakota to reform her
divorce laws—Reno appears to be perfectly con-
tented with things as they are.
Hut Reno is busily engaged In cleaning ho ts«.
and it Is felt by the most retl?ctlve observers that
the divorce laws of Nevada as now written will

At 8 a n d r i n g-
hatu she visits
all parts of her farm at least once a day. This is
more of a pleasure than n task, because sho usu-
ally amuses herself on the way by taking snap-
shots with iter camera or playing with one or
more dogs. Fond though the queen is of outdoor
life, she avoids hard exercise. Yachting and driv-
ing she enjoys, but site never has played golf or
put a ball over a tennis net.
Persistent automobiling, she believes, offers the
quickest means known for getting rid of a nice
complexion and gaining 10,000 wrinkles.
Queen Alexandra believes so much in fresh air
and exercise out of doors that she has sometimes
slept in :t tent she had put up for her at San-
dringham. Once, asked how she managed to
keep young, she said: “Fresh air and exercise are
the best elixirs of youth.”
Queen Alexandra’s particular hobby is ptaotog-
taphy and that takes her out of doors a great
deal. She is said now to possess albums contain-
ing over 10,000 photographs, all taken by her own
hands, representing royal and important person-
ages, places and festivals in all parts of Europe.
For a period of 16 years now the queen has been
a devotee of the camera. She possesses five cam-
eras.
Wherever the queen goes -be It a cruise in the
royal yacht, to her home in Denmark, or a ride
across country in the Highlands—she is never
without her camera. That she uses it well is evi-
dent when it is stated that during one of her Med-
iterranean cruises she secured 1,400 photographs
in six weeks. Then it is very seldom, too, that
the queen throws out a picture or destroys a neg-
ative because the subject is not up to the mark.
in her way of going to work she is most method-
ical. Her photographs fill many albums and un-
der each photograph her majesty has written m
description of the picture and the date when taken.
They include a great variety of subjects, from the
king's stud horses taken in the old days at the
annual sale at Wolferton to portraits of her
grandchildren ou the lawn at Sandringham and
the ruins of the l’arthenon.
her grandchildren fill three albums alone and now I
amount to several thousand. They depict them at ■
their games, romping with each other, and one.

is colorless and almost bare, its dec-

the high altar is a huge kneeling sta-
tue of Monsig. Guibert, archbishop of
Haris, offering n model of the great
church which arose under ids aqspices
to the Virgin in the Lady chapel oppo-
site. Here, by his own request, in-
stead of in his cathedral church, Notre
Dame, he is buried.
Aa if a perpetual warning to her-
etics, a statue of the Chevalier de in
Mar re has been erected immediately
in front of the main entrance. This
unfortunate man was burned at the
stake in 1766, at the age of 19, lor To-
fusing to salute a clerical procession.
Though the site of the church is re-
garded as unpractical, therd was a pur-
pose in its selection, which Illustrates
a predominant French characteristic.
Whenever any of the extreme partisan
factions in France has secured control
of the government it has gone to great
lengths in exulting over its triumphs.
Refusal to offer measures of concili-
ation is one of the causes of the con-
stant unrest in France. When the
present republic was, for a time, in the
hands of reactionaries, and the govern-
ment was in sympathy with the
church, the erection of Sacred Heart
was suggested and begun. It is intend-
ed as a perpetual reminder to the peo-
ple that, for a while, the clerical spirit
was dominant in the third republic
and as a threat that if it again gains
the ascendency it will make its power
felt. And it was with the same pur-
pose in view that a bell which could
be heard for many miles was ordered.
Sacred Heart seems destined to domin-
ate Paris so long as Paris exists.
