nors and Mrs. Mathison, both of whom
have passed the half century mark,
were to be married at the residence of
the bride Thanksgiving day, and had
engaged Justice McCabe to perform the
ceremony. Just before he was to pro-
nounce them man and wife he asked
the would-be bride if she had ever been
married, and she said she had. He
then asked her if she had lost her hus-
band, or if she had ever been divorced
from him, and she said she had not,
but he was residing in Oshkosh. The
old couple insisted that he should marry
them just the same, saying that it
would make no difference to him, but
Mr.. McCabe refused to perform the Ger

A. s. Embree, pastor of the First M.

preached a sensational sermon on tenn

that was what was being taught the
young men Of the State by the non en-
forcement of the prohibition laws. He
therefore advised the repeal of the
present prohibition laws and the sub
