A Pun Wins q Bride.

A wedding will come off in Waco
one of these days. Weddings have
come off before in Waco and will
again, long after we poor devils are
dead and gone. Marrying is chronic
and inCurable habit. But this we'd
ding to be, has touch of romance in
it. The late eclipse is entitled to the
credit for the match. The young
lady is petit and vivacious blonde,
a little sparkling beauty, with the most
bewitching grey eyes, as pellucid and
as deep as lake Como. The young
man is good and a handsame fellow,
but not given to sparkle. That was
the hitch in the wooing preceding the
eclipse, on that bobbin the silken
threads of courtship got tangled. The
pretty little coquettish rogue of girl
admires dash, brains and sparkle, and
had grave doubts of Charles, in those
particulars. But the eclipse brought
him out astonishingly. They were
watching 1t together, he leaning against
mulberry tree in her fathers front
yard in the darkest corner, she half re.
clining in his arms. Her pretty face
was upturned. She is short, he is tall.
She gazed up steadtastly at the waning
moon. Her gaze pierced the mighty
heavens above. his into the dreamy
depths of her liquid grey eyes. He
drank inspiration, the sight wrought
on his brain like alcohol. His re.
sponses to her EXPLANATIONS were
wonderful. She turned on him look
Of surprise, exclaiming that he was
not looking at the sky at all, and he
responded that he was looking into the
sky of his choice and its beauties were
more marvellous than the one above.
Awed by the majesty of the answer
she turned again to. the heavens and
both gazed long time in silence. AT
length with far away look and voice
hushed and dreamy as the voice of a
distant nightingale she murmered:
"Isn't astronomy beautiful subject,
Charles" ut isl very skyentifc sub.
ject," he answered. The lovely girl
lifted her face slowly and gazed on
him reverently. Behind the lips that
could calmly make pun Ike that

A Legal Wrong.

The freedom with which II warrant
can be sworn out, and the duty of
justice to issue, and an officer to exc
cute warrant, work oftentimes
hardship on innocent men. A war
rant may be sworn out by any one
against any one, and on the simple
fact of an oath man whose whole
life has been one of virtue may be-
come in an instant, in the eyes of the
world, felon;on the simple word ola
man whose whole life has been one of
vice. 1t is not long since in this city
that man who stood high In the es-
timation of ALL on the oaths of two
colored women, whose oaths proved
afterwards to be worthless, was ar
laid to the account of any one. The
shame, the anguish to the family, the
horror of vile charge and the mo-
mentary degradation which ensues in
such cases are terrible. There ought
TO be some discretion left to u justice
of the peace when warrant is sworn
out, some time in which to sift proba-
bilities. A warrant of arrest on q
criminal charge often works ruin and
where vindtcation at the hands of an
examining justice makes no adequate
reparation. But even in less than ex-
treme cases, there are young men who
may be wild but who would scorn to
stoop to dishonor, in which false
charge may work ruin by that feeling
of revenge which learns to hate socie-
ty for wrong done to them, though
it DC done under the shadow Of law.
When complainant appears before
a magistrate to charge a man with
grave crime the value of the oath
about 70 be administered constitutes
the value of the warrant, does 1t not?
and the justice should be made a
judge of it's value. Not but what the
warrant must eventually issue, but if
the complainant were to be cross
questioned, if there was sufficient de-
lay to allow confederation of testimony
in doubtful cases, many cases would
fall through which should never have
been begun. AS it is man may build
up character as pure as silver, and
the vilest breath is allowed to blow
Oh it and tarnish the reputation if not
the character forever. Warrants IN
grave crimes should not be issued ex-
cept on probable cause, and when the
character of the complainant is very
low, his oath should be made only q
part of the evidence to establish prob
able cause.

TWO SHEETS FOR A BUsTLE.
A Young Married Couples Trouble
Over Mislaid Important
Article.

Philadelphia Record.
Deprive woman of her hustle and
it will not take her long to find sub.
stitute. No matter what she comes
across, if it will answer it goes"
This was aptly illustrated on Thurs
day by an incident which caused
young married couple untold trouble
and led to the shedding of many tears
by young and handsome woman.
Mrs. Anna Gibson, bride of nine.
teen years, secured rooms with her
husband at the residence of Mrs. Carr,
No. 1884, Wood street, on Wednes-
day. On the following day, being de.
sirous of going down town on business,
she donned her street attire, but found
that in moving she had mislaid her
hustle. She skirmished around for
something that would temporarily an
swer the purpose, but for awhile she
could find nothing. Suddenly an idea
struck her. She improvised hustle
out of two bed sheets belonging to
her landlady, and a moment latter APP
peared smillingly upon the street.
Mrs. Carr soon discovered that the
sheets were missing, and, thinking that
they and probably other articles had
been stolen, she notified the patrol
man on the beat and requested him to
arrest the young woman on sight. The
policeman arrested Mrs. Gibson at
Nineteenth and Vine streets. She
became very indignant when the off.
Ger requested her to accompany him,
and when he persisted the woman
burst into tears.
At the Twentieth district police sta
ton, when she became acquainted
with the details of the charge against
her, Mrs. Gibson laughed and blush.
ingly explained the true state of affairs.
The officers modestly retired from the
room, and in less than minute the
woman produced the sheets nicely
pressed together. Although it was
evident that the pretty and vivacious
prisoner had done no intentional
wrong, the charge still held good, and
she was accordingly consigned to a
cell. Her husband, who is employed
in printing Office at Sixth and Arch
streets, was told of his wife's arrest,
when he returned home that evening,
and he hurried to the station.house in
very angry mood He demanded
the unconditional release of his wife.
Unfortunately his landlady believed
him to be ill conspiracy with his bet.
ter half to rob the house, and was also
arrested. Then there was weeping
and crashing of teeth for time. The
authorities were fully convinced that
the charge was groundless and the i'm.
prisonment of the young couple really
an outrage, but the luckless pair were
forced to spend the night behind the
bars.

A Kissing Sect.

Grand Junction, Michigan, has re-
ligious sect the male members of which
kiss each other. They call themselves
"sanctified saints" For meeting ho use
they have dreary hall htted up only
with plain chairs and a rough pulpit.
As the men enter they exchange what is
called "the holy kiss" and exclaim
Praise the Lord" The women do the
same. The elder who "expounds the
word" closes every sentence with praise
the Lord" and when in singing the
chorus is reached, every body raises the
right hand and waves it in time. The
ambisexual kiss, 80 popular among un-
sanctified ssints, is not indulged in. 1t

Advertising
PAY?

Is the question that rises
pre-eminent in the minds of
business men; the solution
of which is as diversified as the
warts on a toad's back, each
man solving the conundrum as
best suits his situation. But
that advertising does pay has
been proven so satisfactorily
that nothing is left as a COM
bative argument to the question
and the point to be considered
is-what kind of Advertising
pays? The only solution that
can be given to this, taking in
to consideration the widely
different businesses and modes
of conducting them is the
adoption of that peculiar mode
that will reach in an accepta-
BILE manner the greatest number
of persons interested. This
can then he summed up into
the result of "Judicious Adver-
tising," or, in other words, ac-
comodating your advertising to
your business as well as your
business to your advertising. 1t
is not judicious or profitable to
make big squirt with adver-
tising for a month or two, and
then suddenly drop the entire
charge of shot and shell and
await the results; but judicious
and profitable advertising Is
continuous monthly advertising
in original mediums, such as
the CHRONICLE, and your ad-
vertisements will be acceptable
ana pleasingreminde.s that you
are still in business and that
you only await their pleasure
to serve them.

Missoula's Lumber Trade.

1t is estimated that the lumber export
o! Missoula county this year will reach
the enormous total of go ,0OO,O0 feet,

export last year to Butte, Helena. Ana

was 10000 900 feet, and at the rate orders
