l,fr. John e. Wiley and Miss OIL
lie VI. Gates Happily
United.

Cards of invitation had been issued
several days ago to the friends Of the
parties mentioned in our text to attend
the marriage at the Methodist church,
and at 5 p. m. yesterday evening the
church was filed with the fashionable
population of Waco. all of whom waited
with rare degree of pleasure the APP
proach of the bride and groom expect
ant. Mr. Wiley, vino, by the way, is
well known in Waco as one
Of The most popular conductors in
the state, kept up his reputation
for being on time, and promptly
at 5 o'clock, his lovely bride leaning on
his arm, he entered the aisle and they
We're conducted to the front of the altar
by the ushers. Next followed the pa
rents and friends of the bride and groom.
Rev. J. d. Shaw approached the young
couple and in the brief but impressive
form of the Methodist church performed
the holy ceremony which made them
man and wife. While before the altar
all eyes were turned upon the bride and
groom, both of whom bore themselves
with grace and dignity which is only
seen in refined and cultivated circles. The
bride was arrayed in a very rich,
short travelling suit with handsome
trimmings and appropriate jewelry, and
the groom wore the ever conventional
black Always lovely, her most intimate
friends, perhaps, never saw Miss Gates
when she was more admirable or pre-
scented that lovable type which we all adj
mire in woman than when she passed
down the aisle leaning on the arm of her
husband and left the house for their car
riage. The party were at once driven to
the residence OF the brides parents,
where hearty congratulations followed,
and after wedding repast Mr..
Wiley and his bride took the evening
train for San Antonio, where they will
hereafter reside. Among the many
handsome gifts, we noticed the follow
ing
BRIDAL PRESENTS.
Sett of plush, hand painted, glove and
handkerchief boxes.
Pair of hand-painted PLAQUES and
standards.
Pair of porcelain vases, antique shape
and design.
Hand-painted palette and easel,
Silver and cut-glass toilet set, and
jewelry casket combined.
An elegant pickle castor.
A silver card receiver and boquet

Beautiful opera glass.
Case of a dozen nut picks and crackers |
Pickle castor.
A very handsome lamp.
Ahandsome embroidered toilet set and
tides.
One garnet plush French clock.
4 pair diamond earrings. /
No young couple within our recollec-
ion have welded in Waco under hap
pier auspices. Mr.. Wiley is a gentle
.Ieman in every sense of the word and
thorough business man, and his bride
rot only possesses all the domestic quail
ties to make his home happy, but is
refined and accomplished to
legree that permits her to grace the
highest social circles. In every walk of
ife in the long years before them we
wish, as their portion, unalloyed happi-
less and the largest share of prosperity.

President ChadbOurne on Malaria.

President Chadbourne, of Williams Col
lege, is an expert in chemistry, especially in
its relation to health. Malaria has lately ap-
peared in Western Massachusetts,, and its
cause is attributed to the mill ponds, reser-
v0irs and drains of manufacturing industries.
One company was indicted for maintaining
a nuisance iii the form of a sewer which pol
luted river. DR.. ChadbOurne was asked to
throw all the light possible ON the subject.
He said in reply that he used to teach with
out misgiving that the malarial poison pro-
ducing intermittent fever was the result of
vegetable decomposition, especially the de-
composition caused by stirring soils rich in
organic materials and exposing them to the
wrong, and that very little is known on the
subject. "We do not know" he frankly ad
mits, ''wheiher miasm is an inorganic gas,
the vapor of organic compounds, or cryptic
gamic organisms. Nor have we yet learned
what the specific conditions are that secure
the production of the miasm, nor the means
of its distribution. We have some facts and
plausible theories on all these points, but no
theory that have heard of which occords
with all the facts now known. The malaria
abounds in wet and dry places, ia valleys
and mountains. 1t appears in places where
it has before been unknown, without any
condition that can be seen." DIR. Chadbourne
is convinced that moisture has nothing to do
with it, because malaria abounds in the dry
est and cleanest parts of the Rocky Noun
tains; and, while he discards the old theories,
he says that he has no new ones to offer.

Bang, Bang!

People are disgusted with this constant
use of firearms. If a man doubts your YER
acity, shoot him if he insults you, shoot
him and its bang bang bang! all around
us. l wish that the figure of this Washing
ton assassin, going about with arevOlver and
practicing at mark in order that he might
bring down our President all the more
surely, might be warning to our young
men and disgust them with the habit of car
rying pistol. Armed police, sheriffs, and
frontier officers, sworn to execute the law,
are well enough; but, citizens, snap your
sword canes and fling away your revolvers.
You have no better weapons than the two
which God gave, two honest fists, and they're
easily loaded. He who goes about with a
pistol to defend himself with is coward ;
and if you are afraid to 60 down the street
unarmed then you'd better get your grand
mother to go along with you and take her
knitting needles. The pistol is the meanest
weapon that is made it is compact and
portable murder. A sword is manly
weapon, because he who uses it must expose
himself to his adversarys blade. The pistol
is q snake. I'd as soon carry toad in my
pocket. It's curious fact that those who
carry pistols are a quick-tempered, sharp,
gunpowdery and explosive people. Away
with pistols. Let Charles Guiteau and John
Wilkes Booth have all the honor OF assassl-

The Anti-Slang Club.

The following capital sketch from life We
find on the float without any credit:
The Reform Club is the title of a new
organization in one of our towns organized
by young ladies for the purpose of discour-
aging the use of slang phrases" in conversa
tion. At a recent meeting while member
was addressing the society, she inadvertently
made use of the expression, awful nice,
and was called to order by a sister member
for transgressing the rules.
In what way have / transgressed? 2" asked
the speaker, blushing deeply.
You said it would be awful nice to admit
gentlemen to our deliberations" replied the
other.
well, wouldn't it be- replied the speaker
"You know you said yourself no longer ago
than yesterday, that -"
Yes, know; but you said awful nice,
and that is slang
We'll, said the speaker, tartly, If you are
going to be SO awful nice about it, perhaps ii
is; but | wouldn't say anything if were
you. Didn't you tell Sallie Spriggings this
morning to pull down her basque'?"
mo. didn't" retOrted the other, her face
growing crimson; "and Sallie Syriggins will
say didn't. She won't go back ON me-"
This is nice racket you are giving u.s. "
cried the president, raping both speakers to
order. Let me ask what is the object OF
this society ~
ITO discourage slang" cried out dozen
voices. ..-. ...
Correct said the president; now 60 on
with the funeral"
A member rose to explain that she had
been fined at the last meeting for saying
awful nice,7 herself; but she hadn't the
stamps" to pay it now-would settle it,
however, ''in the sweet by-and-by."

How Screws are Made.

The process of making a screw is very in
teresting. The rough large wire in big coils
is by drawing through a hole smaller than
ITSELF made the size needed. Then it goes
into machine that at one moment cuts it to
proper length and makes a head on it.
Then it is put into sawdust and ratified
and thus frightened. Then the head is
shaped down smoothly to the proper size and
the nick put in at the same time After
"rattling" again in sawdust,1 the thread is cut
by another machine, and after another rat
Ting" and thorough drying, the screws are
assorted by hand (the fingers of those who
do this move almost literally like lightning,
crossed by weight and packed for shipping.
That which renders it possible for machines
to do all this is little thing that looks like,
and opens and shuts like a goOse's BILL which
picks up single screw at a time, carries it
where needed, holds it till grasped by some
thing else, and returns for another. This is
about the most Wonderful piece of automatic
skill and usefulness have ever seen, and it
has done its distinctive work at the rate Of
thirty-one screws minute, although this
rate is only experimental as yet. Ninety
three gross per day, however, has been the
regular work of one machine.
