Harvey's wedding tour was completed.
The table was set for dinner.
There was roll of wheels, and the
twinkle Of the carriage lamp at the door,
and the bell rang sharply. =
Kitty and Margery clasped hands in
sympathetic agitation Mr.. Seely dropped
his paper and rose; and Mrs. Seely ad-
vanced toward the hall door with dignity.
1t opened wide before she reached it,
and Harvey entered, his face suffused
with genial, blissful smiles.
This is my wife," he said proudly
"my mother. Dora; my father, my Sis
sters, Kitty and Margery."
: And with caressing touch, he took
by the hand. and led forward among
them -
What?
What, they saw. was q. woman OF
parently forty years, with a face powered
and painted in the most unblushing man
ner, with thin gray hair crimped over a
wrinkled forehead in sickening affecta-
ton of :.youthfulness, and with a diminu-
tive gaily-trmmed bonnet perched there
on; with an affected, mincing gait, and
a simpering smile.
"This is my wife," Harvey repeated +;
"have you no welcome for herr"
The bride Uttered.
MebDe they think I amt good enough
for 'em, dear?' she observed tartly.
impossible my pet" Harvey re-
spOnded, and patted her falsely blooming
cheek affectionately; "besides, if you
were but Shadow-a caricature of your
own beautiful self, they were prepared for
the worst"
Yes, they had all said repeatedly, that
cit could not be worse" But this
wretched, wrinkled, bedizened creature
had they dreamed of this?
Harvey watched them with an undis-
turbed smile-his father, turning away at
last, and rubbing his forehead with his
handkerchief weakly; Mrs. Seely, gazing
at her daughter-in-law with dreadful
fascination, and the girls sinking into
chairs in diSmayed silence.
Well, MOTHER" said Harvey lightly,
of course a new addition to the family
is an object of interest; but don't forget
that L have an appetite, and getting
married has rather improved it. Take
off your bonnet, my own. Here, Kitty I"
Kitty came forward to receive the mar
vellous combination of beads and silk
flowers held out to her with disgusting
air of sprightliness.

It Was Loaded,

This morning ]. NJ. Morse, the young
gunsmith ON Cedar Street had job of
removing loaded shell from breeeh-
loading gun in which it had becop-.
fastened. He fastened the We IN
q wise and was drilling b. tho .;do Of
the shell to loosen :. -1oaoa
LUG 3der was driven back into
AS face and furnished a delicate sur
gical operation for DR.. Steelsmith.
His right hand was struck by the pro-
jectile and two fingers were injured.
The accident was a serious one and
it was almost a miracle that Mr.. Morse
escaped more dangerous injuries, if not
death. He is certainly to be congratu-
lated upon his escape.
Investigating loaded guns is a risky
business to say the least, and when
professional gunsmiths are not able to
do so with entire safety it behOoyes
ordinary people to let the instruments
severely alone. so far as prying into
their vitals is concerned.

OVER THE RIVER.
The Peculiarly Sad Death Of Mrs.
z. r. Rearce.

The old adage that death is no re-
speoter Of persons was never more
strikingly illustrated than when the
dread destroyer entered the happy
home of Mr.. Frank B. Bearce and took
the young wife and mother. Mrs.
Bearce had not rallied since the birth
of her child, Saturday, Nov. oath, and
since last Sunday morning BEANIE seri-
ously low Monday night her spirit took
its fight to the presence of its Creator.
Mrs. Bearce was born in Plymouth,
Mass, in 1868 and lived there until
her marriage two years ago. She came
to Kansas after her marriage with her
husband and has been prominent in
church and social circles ever since.
Her work as an attendant of the Luth-
eran church has marked her as truly
christian woman. Her married life
has been peculiarly happy and the blow
of her death falls with crushing force
upon the husband who has the hearth
est of sympathy in his bereavement.
Mrs. B. was sister of L. FL. Faulkner,
of this city, and has one sister, Mrs.
c. II. .Amsden, Fremont, Ohio, who
was here one year ago and will be
present at the funeral.
The wide circle of friends of the de-
ceased feel keenly their loss and will
miss sorely the gentle presence of the
departed. Indeed, "Thou hast all sea-
sons for thine own, o, Death!"
The babe left is doing nicely and,
though motherless, seems in the best of
health.
The funeral services were held at the
Lutheran church Thursday morning at
10 a. m, Rev. F. M. Porch officiating.
The procession, which was long one.
included the Shaubenee Tribe of Red
Men, of which Mr.. Bearce is re-
spected member. The business houses
of town were closed during the cere=
monies. The form of the loved one
was laid away to its last sleep in the
Abilene cemetery.
