Paris Points.

The Paris mills are turning out ex-
cellent work under the supeTintendency
of G. Wilhelm.
"WhO is to be our next postmaster P'
is question of absorbing interest to at
least three parties.
The grading of the railroad is pro-
crossing finely. We were informed by
good authority that it will be finished
to Paris by spring.
To walk or to ride that is the question
when buggying costs at the rate of six
dollars feT, day. We think good Ivory
here would do thriving business.
We noticed the drug store was closed
on Tuesday afternoon and the doctor and
his clerk were not in town. On inquiry
we learned they were attending the
funeral of their cousin, Miss Annie
Moore, at New Franklin.
We would, with all due respect, advise
the "Cold PiZen" correspondent of the
Alliance Standard to keep himself better
posted on local news and topics. 1t was
difficult for us to determine, in one of
the issues of said paper, whether he was
writing up Paris, o., OF Paris, France.
CRYSTAL WEDDING.
Friday evening, the 18th inst, will be
long remembered by those who were so
lOI buudL6 dS W D6 pleSoub az gno ulICOnGu
anniversary of the wedding of Mr..
Albert Hawkins and his good wife. For
several days previous his neighbOrs had
been making preparations for the happy
event, the only difficulty being to keep
the matter a profound secret. 1t re-
minded one of the old Ku-KluX days to
see the shadowy forms slowly but surely
creeping, as it were, towards the house,
only to rush in with shout and fOrci-
bly, remove "Al." out of his bed and
maltreat the peaceable family. After an
entrance had been made we had chance
of noting some Of the raiders who did
not seem at all 10th to be known. Among
them we noticed AL. Hawkins and wife,
Harley Walker and wife, Byron Walker
and wife, ElsOn Vandegrift and wife, j.
Fernand and wife, e. Morton and wife,
Wes Blanchard and wife, II, H. Kirk and
wife, Mr.. Gilbert and wife, DR.. Bates and
wife, and others. A very fine array of
crystal weighed down the table.
DR.. Bates being called on, addressed the
host and hostess in happy and appro-
pirate manner, which was responded to
by AL, after which they took "a criti-
cal survey of the glass ware. I'M
presentation the guests were treated to
a fine banquet. The rest of the time
until 4 a. NJ. was spent as only old neigh
bOTs can spend it, in general good
time Al. says he could stand crys-
tai wedding right often, and MOllie
thinks so too.
Wewould say in regard to them that
their fifteen years of married life sit
lightly upon them and they bid fair to
ee a golden wedding yet.
May we all go and do likewise.

A young man from Bolivar was in the
city last Tuesday on the hunt for his
younger brother, Elmer Belknap, aged
10, who had eloped with girl named
Maggie McQuery, aged II. 1t appears
the children had been keeping COM
pany" with each other. The parents of
the boy objected, and the lOVe-smitten
pair resented the interference as stated.
Considering their age, the escape seems
to have been planned and carried out in
a manner that would reflect credit on
older heads. We are told that Maggie
left home on Monday morning, saying
she was coming to MassillOn. Accord
ing to rumOr in Bolivar, Elmer had a
friend drive him to this city Monday
night. The 'twO souls with but sim
gle thought, two hearts that beat as
one," met here and started on life's jour-
ney. But the older brother was unable
to find any trace of them in Massillon,
and he continued his search east the
same day, but whether the children
have been captured and returned to
their trundle-beds we are unable to
state,-MassillOn American.
