these comedians get their names?) are the funsters of the prod etion and fill the bill The ladies include Dolly Barranger, Anna Byrnes und Gertrude Lynch, and there is a sprightly chorus of good

on, KASTEL STILL MISSING Kastel, who for years operated Montreal's smartest and speediest uptown bright-light restaurant, has been missing from his former haunts since the Grand Jury indicted him in New York in connection with the disappearance of clients\u2019 funds in the Dillon bucketshop and is believed by the authorities to have sought sanctuary in his former Canadian haunts, Whether his

crashed into Fuller's private office and changed order to chaos by the simple process of tearing the furniture to pieces.Fuller called the police.In court Miss Black declared that she had been a good girl until she met Fuller eight years ago.Now she threatens revenge upon the bucketeer-daddy since convicted for his participation in the bucket-shop frauds and occupying a prison home on Governors\u2019 Island with his former partner Willian McGee.Miss Black's evidence is expected to provide some real thrills in the way of exposure of the \u2018sucker-trimming\u201d financial game, ANOTHER \u201cFULLER\u201d GIRL Florence Ely, musical comedy girl, new known as Mrs.E.M.Filler who succeeded the fair Nellie in the affections of Fuller is next on the list and will be calied to

on the day of days when the \u201csweetie\u201d expenditures of Dandy Phil Kastel his associates, confederates and competitors will be under fire The former Mrs, McGee has just returned from Paris to

aup- posed that divorces in that country are comparatively rare.Yet the contrary is the truth, according to the statistics just issued for the past five vears by the Minister of Justice.The number of petitions for divorce in the whole of France, which amounted to 19,000 in 1913, rose to 35,000 in 1920.the highest total yet recorded.This total does not include applications for the French equivalent of judicial separation.Such aApniications are diminishing every year, but they have latterly averaged one-seventh of the number of petitions for complete divorce.The figures of 1920 diminished by about 1.000 in 1921, and showed a still further diminution in 1922.The highest number of divorces in 1922 was in Paris, where 5200 decrees were awarded, a figure equivalent to one divorce in every seven marriages.The lowest rates recorded were in rural districts, where the population is scattered.Climatic conditions appear to have some influence on marital relations; otherwise it seems difficult to account for the fact that, with practically equal populations, the comparatively cheerless and smoky atmosphere of Lyons was responsible for double the number of divorces obtained under the sunnier climate of Marseilles, eo a SS Sy p\u2014p\u2014\u2014pr\u2014 able brown suit, Andrews, or Handsome Herbert, as his fellow-inmates called him, jauntly strode out of the prison gates, swinging a cane.He was met by his faithful second wife, Mrs, Esther Tatnall Andrews, | who showered him with hugs and kisses.Wife No.1, Mrs.Maude Haynes Andrews, was not present.Shortly before his arrest great interest was aroused when it was revealed that the broker had taken a second\u2019wife to live with his first wife and their children in a fashionable apartment house, TENANTS COMPLAINED Andrews brought home wife No, 2, his former stenographer, and the two women lived in the apartment with Andrews and the children for several weeks despite the scandal created in the neighborhood and the objections of apartment house owners and tenants.No.1 later obtained a divorce and $360 monthly alimony from the courts.Although she and the children appeared in court to testify in behalf of the broker, she has not communicated with him since, while wife.No.2 flooded, him with love messages almost every day he was a Te moe, where he was a readily accepted friend until the bogus nature ENTER \u201cTHE MAJOR\u201d \" Known to most of his Montreal friends as \u201cthe Major\u201d, the bogus staff officer was the life of many a party in fashionable West-end hotels and restaurants, always ready to drink or dine, mever without the accentuated limp and cane, which were as much a part of his per- sonalily as the red band upon his cap or the row of war ribbons upon the left breast of his mmartly-tailor- ed army officer's «tunic.There did not appear to be anything much out of place in the \u201cMajor's\u201d make-up, unless it might have been a desire to turn life into a perpetual song and dance, to stay up all night and sleep all day, By most he was regarded as a fine young fellow, a good spender, cheerful to the umptieth degree, full of war stories; always the life of the party.Brazen without the appearance of being brazen, there was no limit to \u201cthe major's\u201d activities.Senior officers of the militia, the headquarters staff and returning units were his bosom friends.The arrival of \u201cthe major\u201d on any party was the signal for cheers, handshakes and drinka.Young officers boasted of their friendship with the clever and witty staff officer who was alwaya ready to quaff thirst-slaking potions, or to wine and dine with beauty.On one occasion, when one of those cheery little parties which begin at night and end with the dawn was in progress, the major, in company with several admiring friends came in contact with an officer of the military police who had his private domicile in one of the city's uptown hotels.A visit was made to his quarters and an interesting time \u201cwas had\u201d until the host's supply of liquor was \u201cdead\u201d.Then it was that \u201cthe major\u201d suggested that the time had come to graze in pastures new.Their host declared for bed, of his identity became revealed an Ontario prison after a sensational trial in Ottawaand, in the presence of his guasts, and he was given, the entre to disrobed,

the man Or woman whom life has treated harshly; who feels himself or herself to have been dealt blows by Fate too hard too bear.There are plenty of them in this city of Montreal and this Land of Plenty we know as the Dominion of Canada.With many the fault has been their own in the first instance.With others they have been sinned against.And to-day their outlook on life is soured and their vision blurred, This not be- esuse they are wicked, or vile, or contemptible, or indolent, or lazy, or shiftless.It is because they have somehow missed the mark, lost heart, yeceived kicks instead of kindness, and now feel themselves social Ishmaels.Well, for these THE AXE bears a song of hope.\u201cA man wiv ba dowt-but-hetsmever-out Tis ett tee that men may rise, 1 @ d0 + on stepping stones of their dead selves to higher things\u2019, To these who have fallen by the wayside, broken like butterflies on the wheel of life, THE AXE wants to carry this song of hope and to say, \u201cwe are with you to help you to rise and come back, no matter how far you have gone off the track.\u201d A song of deliverance is also carried by THE AXE.\u201cTo set the prisoners free\u201d.That was the work of a Mighty Man and nobly He did it, though they crucified Him for it.THE AXE hag a special and deep interest in all prisoners, I speak here primarily of the prisoners in our jails and penitentiaries, With most their crime, as differing from the people outside, is that they were found out; while the others of us have managed to elude discovery.When | think of one young fellow in Quebec Jail while I was a political prisoner there, who was \u201cdoing\u201d six months for stealing about one foot of lead pipe, and remember the crooks in high places, the financiers who thimble-rig markets; she bank directors who manipulate funds not their own, the captains of industry who become multi-millionaires by purchasing crooked politicians to legalise their profiteering, then 1 sorrow from the bottom of my heart for these poor victims whose petty crime was found out.There are many in those jails and prisons, too, who are there innocently enough; railroaded sometimes; given no chance after a first conviction, because having once sinned against the law their word is never accepted and their subsequent punishments are always more severe than if they had not already once offended.These and all the other prisoners \u2014 prisoners of habit and vice, even the prisoners of virtue, for such there are, will find THE AXE carries them a song of deliverance.Likewise THE AXE is vocal with a song of justice.That is its chief melody; the strain it will ever sing while injustice prevails.First of all THE AXE ig working to secure justice for the weak and helpless; for the poor, for the workers of Canada and the world.Already we have proved in a hundred ways that we of THE AXE are ready to \u201cgo to the mat\u2019 for those who suffer injustice.Nor have we hesitated to attack and denounce those in high places when we thought they were doing injustice to some ill able to bear it, The underpaid department store girl; the unmarried mother, the workers on strike for better conditions; these and many others have found their only champion in this little paper with a song in it.It has not always been easy to take our stand for justice.It cost me personally six months in prison and pearly thirty thousand dollars to take a stand in the Blanche Garneau murder case, And many the friend I have lost because I have placed Justice before friendship, But what does that matter?In a few years at most I shall be gone from this editorial desk.Others will take my place.My name will be but a memory.But I want it to be a fragrant memory in the lives of - the oppressed, the suffering, the helpless whose battles to-day we of THE AXE are fighting, And if they forget me for all else I hope I shall be remembered because I founded and edited \u201cThe Paper with the Song in it\u201d.1 Ho Hi LEA ;
