One Of the most interesting episodes in our
early American annals was the marriage
of Rolfe to Pocahontas, but the romance of
that union consisted in the idyllic history of
the lovely Indian princess previous TO the
hour when she became the bride of the Eng
lishman. She was beautiful, winning, guile
less and of royal blood The same TO
mantle elements cannot be said to
have entered into the recent marriage
of Elaine Goodale TO Ithe Sioux, DR..
Charles Eastman. The groom and not the
bride was an Indian, and although Dr. East
man is represented as being man Of educa-
ton there is something revolving in woman
possessing the beauty and accomplishment of
Miss Goodale uniting her fortunes to the I'M
mediate descendant of a savage Sioux whose
highest ambition was 10 scalp an enemy. and
whose chief satisfaction in existence was de-
rived from the grossest physical indulgence.
Ex-GovERNoR FORAKER, in his speech nomi-
mating Mckinley for Governor of Ohio. said
that he was the man for the place because his
name was a household word. 1t IS Just be-
cause his name is such common household
word that he will not get the place.
Ever since the Mckinley bill passed
every lady in the country has been
abusing the Major for raising the prices of
numberless articles so dear to the hearts Of
the ladies when they 60 out shopping. That
is one great reason why the Republicans were
defeated last fall, and il will be a potent
factor in defeating them again. When lovely
woman so DEGREES, Mckinley prices must go,
and Mckinley viii be likely TO 90 with them.
Is HIS speech nominating Mckinley before
the Ohio convention Foraker said that Nc
Kinley was the Joe Hooker OF the Republi-
can party" A most unfortunate and ominous
comparison. If ever a general was badly
whipped and completely used up it was
that same Joe Hooker at the battle of Chan

liehtful one for a summer outing, being cloudy
and not too warm TO be uncomfortable, while
no more delightful spot for picnic could
have been selected. The house is surrounded
on the north side by beautiful grove of fine
old oaks, and on the south, overlooking the
river. it stands sentinel over magnificent
low-ground farm. its fields dotted over with
sheayes of grain which have been already
harvested, while much is still standing
ready for the sickle An almost blrds-eye
view of Richmond ia the distance can be had,
adding beauty 70 grand natural panorama.
The house is now much dilapdated and rap
Idly gong to decay, but IN ITS time 1t must
have been a charming old Virginia home.

themselves with relating old war incidents,
and recalling old Confederate "reminiscences.
Thus the time pleasantly passed until l
clock. when lunch was announced. and with
appetites sharpened by the drive from Rich
moud it was heartily enjoyed. After the
lunch various parties were formed
for the enjoyment of the eyer-popular games
of cards, and for the next four hours the great
American game of draw" euchre. odd
sledge" and loo were participated in to the
profit of some, the loss Of others and the en-
joyment of all.

r. d. Boyd, aveteran of an-IOwa cavalry regi-
ment, attempted 20 commit suicide last week
in Washington by taking large dose of nux
vomica. The quantity swallowed was so large,
however, that death did not eusue, and the pain
caused by tho drug was so intense that the loud
outcries OF the old soldier reused the inmates
Of the house. Boyd was taken to a drug store,
where an emetic was administered, and he was
removed 10 an hospital, where several hours
were spent in getting him out of danger. When
lie could talk he told pitiiul story. He had
eaten nothing for several days, having neither
money nor friends. He was in Washington
trying TO push his pension claim. but could OBJ
tain little satisfaction ct the Pension Bureau
had grown dependent, and determined to end
his miserable existence. During the war he
had been wounded in the foot, which had caused
partial paralysis Of the left side. and he was
unable TO work. He was taken in hand by the
Iowa Association, and will be taken care OF
until nc can look out for himself.

once Married, Nerer Divorced.

A matrimonial controversy which has been
in the Roman Catholic Church four years is
ended. William Grant, Of Bridgeport, Conn.,,
separated from his wife, formerly Mary Reilly,
and divorce was secured in the courts of the
State. The couple had been married by a
Methodist minister, but subsequently Grant
had Joined the Church of Rome, TO which his
wife belonged. He applied "a - ecclesiastical
divorce, claiming that Methodist marriage
was not recognized by the Church. After much
trouble and appeals to higher courts. the Pope
has decided that the marriage is binding and
divorce is refused. Meanwhile Grant is, and
has been for some years, living with second
wife.
