Flagler was the happiest man in the world. Then a terrible misfortune came into his life. His wife's mind became unbalanced. The grief-stricken man kept the awful truth hidden as long as possible. He paid thousands and thou winds of dol lars to alienists in the hope of re storing her mentality, but her condi tion gradually grew worse. When, i.t 1899, the unfortunate woman finally became uhimina"eably, the Standard Oil magnate was forced to have his wife declared legally insane. Divorces Insane Wife.

It was alley A i.t the time that this law was passed tor the benefit of Mr. Flagler, who had come to be a power in Florida as a result *>f his vast railroad and hotel enterprises. He devoted a great deal of his money and energy toward tlie up building of the State of Florida, and making the southeastern peninsula one of tlie greatest winter resorts in the world.

May 2( Representative Darnell, of Key West. I has introduced a resolution in the Florida House for a press censorship, particularly for the weekly papers of the State. Ills resolution follows: "Whereas, a nunfber of corpora tion-serving newspapers have pub lished malicious, untruthful and mis leading editorials relative to pro ceedings. thereby doing grave in justice to members of this House.

Remember that the seminary asks nothing, seeks nothing It is not rep resented here voluntarily, it came on invitation. We want to be of ser vice to the Presbyterian Church, but if you can not use us, we do not care to try. "The members of the faculty have given evidences of their Christian faith that should be accepted if the matter is considered at all. I hold, however, that discussion on the sec ond minority report should have no place on this floor, as the r eport was never inane a subject of conference. "In regard to the students go’ forth from our seminary, I war deny the scurrilous stories which have gone forth about the country. There is not a single man from the uni nary who has been licensed by u presbytery who lias denied his belief in the atoning* work of Jesus, the res et ion of the Lord and the other fundamental doctrines concerning whii h we have oeen accused of lack of faith.” Dr. Brown spoke quietly and with out any evidence of r .ncor until In ca me to discuss the charges of Chris tian infidelity lodged against his sem inary and its faculty. Then his voice rose and he lost the poise that had characterized his calm discussion of the legal phase of the seminary’s ac tion in abrogating the agreement of 18 70. ' The friends of the seminary ap- ir imled lightly when Dr. Brown was finished, despite the injunction of the moderator that there was to be no manifestation whatever of approval or disapproval. The moderator followed the address of Dr. Brown by a statement of t!^ procedure which would be employed in taking up the formal debate on the reports. The confusion which devi loped was largely the result of a shower of varying suggestions of slightly different lines of procedure the commissioners thought advisable. When recess came it was practical ly derided that every speaker would h*ve lu minutes in which to debate the reports. One report was to be discussed by a speaker favorable Jo it. then by one of its adherents, and after this the third. if any person in the Assembly had a proposition not coinciding with any of the three reports, he was to be given the opportunity of presenting his views after the others had con- eluded. When the round had been made, the fit's*i report was to be taken up again, and this procedure repeated until the Assembly was ready to take a vote. Before the voting. Dr. William G. Wylie, of New York, who presented the majority report favorable to the seminary; Dr. John Davies, of Phila delphia. who presented the first un favorable minority repoit; Dr. F. C. Monfort, of Cincinnati, the author «*f the second minority report, which was strongest, in its accusations of heresy, anil President Brov\nh*of the seminary, i w ere to be allowed ten minutes each | for summing up their arguments*. "There is to be no lobbying or poli tics in this debate. 1 ’ said Moderator Stone, firmly. "1 shal lendeavor to be guided by the Spirit of God and mv beat Christian judgment, and I pray that you will do the same. I shall ■y to be fair. 1 shall trv to favor no ride above antoehr. If I make a ruling that may be questioned by you, 1 shall be glad to take you into my confidence and tell you exactly why J do it.” The amended brnef statement of be lief was adopted by the assembly by. a vote of 119 to 64. \ A motion to adopt the ad interim committee's report on the statement of belief, as read 1 cheated a furor Tuesday's session Assembly. The statement is a corrected form of that drawn up by last year’s com mittee. After it was read, Dr. T. S. Knox, of Texas, opened the discus sion by declaring first that it was wholly unnecessary. "The adoption of this statement would make void all possibilities of a union between the three Presbyterian bodies." declared Dr. Knox. "The article is not only bad grammar but it is also bad theology." Cries of shame followed Dr. Knox’s speech. "It is outrageous.” declared Dr. Mc- Pheeters, “that such words should be uttered in a Presbyterian i hurch.” Dr. A. P v Gregory, of Tennessee, spoke, declaring that the statement was badly needed. Dr. .J. B. Works, of Texas contradicted Dr. Knox’s as sertion that the change was not de sired in- the West, by stating that it would be Welcomed in that district. yellowing other short addresses, the motion was tabled until the after noon session. The change in the ba.ris^.of repre sentation, which has become a law by the enactment of the General Assem bly of the Southern Presbyterian ( hurch. \*ill increase materially the representation to future As c emblies. The change means that in future the commissioners to the General As sembly shall be chosen as* follows; Kverv Presbytery s'hall be entitled to elect one minister and one elder as commissioners, and all Presbyteries where the combined membership of ministers and communicants exceed 4.000 will be entitled to elect one min ister and one elder additional. This ratio will continue with the addition if each four thousand members in the Presbytery. Amon'r, the first features of the As- -embly Tuesday morning was the fraternal messenger from the General Assembly of the United Presbyterian ('hurch. The "special order” for 2:30 o’clock Tuesday afternoon was a report of rhe committee on foreign correspond ence. Beneficence Discussed. Consideration of the report of the standing committee on systematic beneficence was resumed. The part of the report presented was with refer ence to the permanent committee of systematic beneficence. The only item of the report that provoked diseusison was that with referent* ■ to the restoration of the Power of the permanent committee to nominate members and secretaries of the excutive committees of the As sembly. This power formerly be longed to the committee, but was Likaji from it at the Assembly of 1912 The report of the standing commit tee recommended the restoration of this power, but with the \provision that it should not deprive any oilier member of the Assembly rimilar right Dr. VP. M. F. Alexander opposed the ! reotoraation of this power, upon the j ground that it w ould mean too much : centralization *of power; that in time i the association of this committee with the executive committees might beget upon the part of members of the lat ter the disposition to bow to the for mer in order to receive nomination for ihe committees. Clyce to the Defense. Dr. T. S. Ciyce m-t this opposoition with the statement that he had been a member of the Permanent Commit tee on Systematic Beneficence when it possessed the power under consid eration and that there was no log roHing on the part of any one; furth er. that it is not likely there would be such at any He urged that the Assembly have more concentre- | tion of power in the transactions of its business. The report of the committee was adopted and the power of the Perma nent Committee was restorqfl. Tne time for uniting alt Presbyte rian churches is not yet ripe. This is the decision of the Southern Pres byterian Church, unanimous appar- ( mb*. If there we be any who opposed, they failed to voice their sentiment against such an overwhelming vote for lie retention of the Southern ehureh’s individualitv. Re port of rhe committee on over tures against uniting was adopted al most unanimously. It stated that the time was not just ripe for the uniting of the Southern church with other branches of the Presbyterian, The fact that negotiations are already un der way between Lie Southern Pres byter an Church and the United ed. the present time appeared as inopportune for a discussion of union. The beneficence committee’s report recommended that the percentage for foreign missions be cut from 60 to 54 per cent; that borne missions receive 27 instead of 21 per cent; Christian education and ministerial relief to receive 14 1-2 i -Lead of 14 per cent amt Sunday school publications re duced from 4 in 3 1-2 per cent.
