In the United States, by law which
prevails very generally, If not in fact
universally, throughout the states,
marriage Is regarded as wholly based
upon contract, upon the present mu-
tual consent of the parties, and no
special forms are necessary to it's va
lidity. II man and woman, by
words Of present import, promise and
agree to be husband AID wife, the
contract and the resulting statutes of
marriage are perfected, solemnization
by clergyman or by civil magis-
trate, the presence of witnesses, and
all the ceremonies and forms which
are customarily used, even those pro-
vided for by statute are nothing more
than convenient means of perpetual
ing the evidence of the contract be-
tween the spouses, which itself con-
.stitute the marriage; they are not in
the least essential y its efficacy.

A LITTLE SURPRISE.
The secret Marriage Of Chet Morgan
and Miss Rebe Yates.

Their many friends will no doubt be
surprised to learn that "Chet" Morgan,
paying teller of tho United States Ma
tional bank, and Miss Rebe Yates,
daughter of Mr.. II. w. Yates, president
of the Nebraska National bank, have
been married, and thereby hangs little
romance.
Mr.. Morgan it seems had been paying
attention to Miss Yates for some time,
and last winter he proposed and was
accepted by the young lady. He then
laid the matter before MIR. Yates and
asked his consent, but MIR. Yates made
some objection on the ground of diff
ference in religion, Mr.. Morgan being o
Catholic and Miss Yates being Protest.
ant. Mr.. Yates urged that the affair be
postponed for time at least and there
upon Mr.. Morgan said no more about it.
Nothing farther was heard of the mat
ter until yesterday when Mr.. Morgan in
formed Mr.. and Mrs. Yates that he had
married their daughter in March last at
Watson, Missouri, the ceremony being
performed by Methodist minister. 1t
seems that Miss Yates was on her way to
st. Joe on visit, and Mr.. Morgan ac-
companied her as far as Watson, and af-
ter the brief ceremony was over, he re-
turned to Omaha, while she proceeded on
her visit to st. Joe.
The announcement yesterday was con-
siderable of surprise to Mr.. and Mrs.
Yates, whose chief regret is that the
couple should have thought it necessary
to be clandestinely married when as
matter of fact, if they could not
have been persuaded otherwise,
they could have been married
pleasantly at home, surrounded by their
friends. The sole objection to Mr.. Nor
gan on the part of Mr.. Yates was his re.
ligion, as he does not believe in the in
termarriage of Catholics and Protestants.
Mr.. and Mrs. Yates are otherwise recon-
ciled to the situation, and there was no
sensation connected with the affair, other
than stated above. Mr.. Morgan and his
bride left yesterday afternoon on an
eaatern wedding trip, and upon their
return will be received as members of
the family.

A SWEET-SOENTED THIEF
He Steals Bottle of Pcrfumory and
Makes n Run for Liberty.

Sunday evening two fellows entered DIV
Saxe's drug store and bought couple of
cigars. As soon IA they had lighted
them, one of the fellows grabbed a bottle
of perfumery which was standing upon
Ishow case and slipped it under his
coat. Mr.. Hollis Hogle, the head clerk
was standing on the oppsite side of the
store, and while he did not see the fellow
take the perfumery he knew by his act.
ions that he had stolen something. He
started toward the fellow and he moved
rapidly toward the door. Just as the
thief stepped out upon the walk Hogle
called upon him to stop. Did he stop
we'll / guess not. He lit out down
Fifteenth street ike a quarter horse
Hogle after him.
The thief is runner and Hogle is not
slowa one hundred yard squirt, and it
made lively race. While Hogle ran he
hollered Justify, "Stop thief" The race
and Hogle's cries attracted the attention
of passersby and they joined in the chase,
which was made go-as. .you-please.
When the thief reached the corner of
Fifteenth and Douglas streets he ran into
the arms of policeman who clamped on
to him and took him to Jail. He was
there identified as Jerry Herman, a man
well known in police circles in this city.
This morning he was sentenced to if
teen days in the county Jail on bread and
water.
The bottle of perfumery, which is
valued at Sc. 80, was recovered.

UNHEALTHY BED FELLOWS.
Domestic Animal Pcts, luxurious
sleeping Companions.

A prominent member of local society
of the more rabid order, woman re.
nowned for her brillianoy aud beauty
has appeared in the streets lately with
her face marred by most unpleasant
looking eruption. In conversation the
other evening gentleman who enjoys
her acquaintancoship remarked:
"Poor Mabell She has got tho mango
bad enough to call on Dan Foster for a
cure"
"The mange" the reporter remarked.
"What do you meant"
"Just what say" he answered "She
had pet terrier, and overfed it till it
got tho mango. The terrier slept in her
bed, and you see the result. Why, she
is covered with it, fairly covered, | tell
you"
The scribe didn t ask him how he found
it out.
"a most reprohensible practice" said
DIR. Liantard, the eminent veterinarian,
when spoken to about the matter "is
that of permitting pet animals to sleep
upon the bed with their owners. Yet it
is an extremely common one just now,
to such extravagant lengths has the pas
sion for pets gone. 1t is quite possible
for dog troubled with skin disease to
communicate it to human being, and
few pets, indeed, pampered, overfed, and
underexercised as they are, are free from
skin diseases in a mild form at least.
AS for cats, they should not be permitted
to sleep in the same room with human
being, for their respiration is pestilential
to any one in repose. Cats bolt all
sorts of food and digest it like snake,
and while digestion is in process their
breath is fatid in the extreme. For a
sleeping person, whose functions are all
in reduced condition of activity, to
breathe the air they poison is extremely
unhealthy. Yet people permit their cats
and dogs to sleep with them, who at the
first Whit of sewer gas would vacate
house and sue the owner for damages"

Edifying the Fremonters

County commissioner Corliss was yes,

visit Fremont, Nebraska, to-day in re-
sponse to an invitation extended him by
the board of trade of that city. A citi-
zens' meeting will be held in Dodge
countys capital this evening, and Mr..
Corlias will address it upon the swamp
land laws of Nebraska, and the methods
to be employed in draining the Platte
Valley about Fremont of its surplus wa
ter. For several years the commission
ers of Dodge have been trying to drain
the swamp lands of thai county and have
met with the poorest success. Douglas
county now has nine miles of public
drains which have proved of great bene
fit to adjoining property owners, and he
lieving in Mr.. Corliss' superior knowl
edge of this branch of his duties he has
been invited by the business men o.

Three Kinds of Shoes,

Nothing can be so injurious to grow
ing girls foot as to put it into shoe
pointed at the toe, thereby turning the
great toe inward and producing one of
the greatest plaques of life-corns, or
still worse, bunlons. Young children
should invariably wear straight shoes
with "elastic waists, as they are called,
giving play to tho muscles, and which in
adults permits tho wearer to walk long
distances without fatigue. If heels are
used at all they should be low.
There are three kinds of boots
and shoes-those that are made
purely on hygienic principles, without
any confederation as to fashion; those
that are purely fashionable, and tho hap
py medium that containes the two. l
should suggest to my readers TO consult
their interests by turning their attention
to the third class, for it is decidedly the
right path, There are aome new inven-
tions in waterproof soles, some new peg
ged soles for running shoes, and many
tor the riders on bicycles and trcycles.
The cyclist shoe seems to combine all the
merits required, for it prevents slipping
and givesa powerful grip ON the
trsadle, enabling the wearer to ride up
hill with comparative ease. An excel
lent invention is the damp. p.proof boot
sole, which consists of light metal
plate, or skeleton frame, provided with
solid projections, or teeth, which are
forced into or through the outer sole
from the upper side and are thus perma-
nently imbedded in the leather. 1t is
an expensive article and suitable for all
descriptions of boots and shoes, and per-
fectly pliable to the motion of the foot.
The sole is prevented from running over
and the upper kept in shape without the
inconvenience of heavy nailed boots.
They are light and inde8tructable.- Gas

The Result of Checking up the Books

The Result of Checking up the Books,

William f. Helms, has submitted the re-
suit of his labors to the county clerk.
His report shows deficit of $95l.7l
from the various funds, and also of diff
ferent years. This deficit arises more,
it appears, from negligence and careless
ness than any dishonest intent on the
part of Mr.. Helms to appropriate the
funds of the county to his own use. 1t
is said this shortage will be made good at
