We are in receipt of a beautiful
portrait of Mr.. George Kohlepp, the
HALEY brewer, for which we tende,
our thanks. The workmanship is one
of Mr.. Tate's happiest efforts; and
there is no discount on his work. when
he spreads himself, as he evidently has
done in this case.
Mr.. kohlepp looks as natural as life
there Is ''far away-dreamy express
ion' on his face-a certain indescrib
able, thoughtful look, that one who
notices him closely discovers. This
peculiar feature his intimate friends
will discern at once.
1t is in the portrayal of these sub
tile expressions that lies the skill of
the true artist.

They are public benefactors. That's
what they are. They found other
merchants charging ridiculously higl
prices for their groceries, and con
cluded to come to the rescue Of the
public. Henceforth they will regu-
late the prices Of groceries, and it
won't cost four times as much to live
here as it should. That's why Reyes

public bcnefactors. If you don't be-

SHE MARRIED THE WRONG MAN.
The Woes Of a Bride Who Welded the
Twin Brother Of Her Lover by
Mistake.

Twin bfOther OF Her Lover b,
Mistake.
"A telegram from Milwaukee, Wis.
cons'n, says that on Wednesday Ct
last week, young couple evidently
from the country, visited the office of
Justice Beasler and requested him to
make them husband and wife. The
name of the intended bride was Miss
Melinda Pope of Genesee, and the
prospective groom was William Con-
I'm of Vernon. Miss Pope gave her
age as 20 while Mr.. ConlN Informed
the Justice that he was just II wears
Old. The Justice was a little suspi.
clous that the would be husband was
not so old as he represented himself.
but as he swore to the fact, and his
statement was borne out by the VIC.
orous protestation of his betrothed.
the Justice performed the ceremony.
Yesterday morning Justice Bensler
was somewhat surprised at receiving
a VISIT from the newly made Mrs. Con-
IN accompanied by her legal advisor,
VINO desired separation from her hus-
band. She wanted the Justice to de.
clare the marriage null and void, and
gave as 'er first reason that her hus.
band had committed perjury in swear
ing that he was II years old,as he had
not yet reached that age. The
justice Informed her that it was be-
yond his province to undo the work
he had preformed.
upon being pressed further as to
the cause of this sudden revulsion in
her feelings toward her young hus-
band, the lady sobbing " admitted
that she had married the wrong mar
She said her husband was not the in
dlvidual she had intended to marry.
and that when the ceremony was per-
formed she was under the belief that
she was marrying her husbands
brother.
Her advisor informed the surprised
Justice that there are two brothers
named Conlin bearing SO close re-
semblance that it is almost impossible
for their relatives to distinguish one
from the other. The brothers are.
however, the reverse of each other in
their characters, one of them being
known and respected as IA sober and |
moral young man, while the other is
said to be a dissi pated scapcgrace.
Miss Pope, it appears, fixed her affec-
tons upon the moral brother, and
when he asked her t. marry hin, con-
'cnted. At least, she thought it was
he respectable brother whom she ac-
'epted, but she has learned since flat.
although her love was given to the
good young man, she had been main
y courted and won by his brother
She thinks her position extremely I'M
pleasant, as she is not only married to
man she does not love, but is also
Unable to tell the difference between
Ter husband and his brother.
The Justice told her he could do
'othng for her, and the disconsolate
ride departed.

Feeding Cattle.

Cattle men say they have to com.
mence feeding cattle or they lose the
beef. The wet, cold weather, saws
the Silver State, is telling on them,
and instead Of gaining flesh they
lose it, unless they are fed hay. How
ever, the hay crop was good this
year, and as beef is high and hay
low and plenty, the stock men can
afford to feed their beeves.

ney, and A. Arndt, one of the jurors at
the inquests. DR.. Werner, in subs snce,
testified that the wounds found on the
body might, together with the shock, to
person the age Of the old lady Kodisch,
about go. years cause death. He had lit
tie doubt that the blows, which appeared
to have been inflicted by blunt instru-
ment, contributed to her death,
Tho testimony of District Attorney
Kirkland was of deep interest, as it enter
ed into tn situation of affairs at the home
ofKodisch few days subsequent to the
alleged murder. The house is described
az consisting of kitchen, another room
to the north of the kitchen, between which
rooms is lath and plaster Partition.
There are two smaller rooms adjoining
the kitchen and one front room with
small passage. There is no manner Of
getting into the north room from outdoors
except by gOing through the kitchen.
In this north room the granddaughter,
Louisa said that her grandmother died;
that she slept in the northeast corner Of
the room. Louisa informed the District
Attorney that she herself slept that night
in the kitchen, and after her grandmother
Was dead they took bed out of the room
and placed the body of her grandmother
upon it. The family said that the old la
dy went to bed the night of her death all
alone at about o'clock and appeared to
be as we'll as she had been for some time
previous. Louisa and her sister Annie
retired at about 10 o'clock. Their father
admitted that he did not go to beG at all,
but sat up all night, being feverish, and
at such time he always was compelled to
walk up and down the room. Kodisch
stated that his mother has not been out
of the room from the time she went in at
6 o'clock the night before until she was

Kodisch had heard no noise or distur-
bance in the room during the night.
Albert Arndt testified that he knew
the defendant, and WAS acquainted with
the deceased old lady Kodsch when she
WAS living. He recognized the body at
