Married his own wife.

"Did you ever hear of man marrying
his own wife ?" asked Harvey Kuttner OF
party of good listeners at the Southern
last night: II doh't mean divorced
couple getting remarked, but couple
really going through the marriage cere-
mony a second time with one Of the two
entirely ignorant of the fact. 1 met case
of that kind last year and am thinking of
selling the idea to some novelist to build
a plot on. It was in small Ohio town,
and the bride had been deserted by her
husband twenty years before. She had
long ago come to the conclusion that he
was dead, and had been looked upon as
an eligible widow who was fair and forty,
if not fat, when stranger came to town,
got himself introduced to her, and finally
persuaded her to try the matrimonial ex-
pertinent second time.
"They were married after short court
ship, and few weeks after the honey
moon the husband give away his story,
and told his wife that she had married
him twice without knowing it. His ex-
planation was that on leaving her, twenty
years before, he had gone on pro-
tracted spree, and had finally got him
self sent to the penitentiary of distant
State for long term. After being lib
Grated he was ashamed to look up his old
friends, and took it for granted that his
wife had forgotten all about him by that
time.
''He accordingly went abroad, and it
was only on his return, after long Pc
Rod, that he heard accidentally that his
wife was still living at the old home.
Rather than run the risk of being spurned
for his heartlessness, and relying on an
entire change in his personal appearance,
he conceived the daring plot of win
ming and remarrying his own wife.
don't know what the lady said when she
was undeceived, but that is one OF the de-
tails the novelist sell the story to can
supply for himself."-T. Louis Globe
Democrat.

= The Baltimore Sun thus describes
the South Carolina whiskey: at seems
that the South Carolina whiskey not only
made the snakes look small, but made
them appear woody. Under the new liquor
law of South Carolina the smallest drink
that can be bought is quart, and it was
thought by some that it WIS 10 this fact
that the enormous number of snakes
were to be attributed. But this explana.
ton of the matter is manifestly incorrect,
since it has been the uniform experience
of thirsty sinners that the bigger the
drinks the bigger the snakes. So it must
be concluded that there is some peculiar.
ity in the granger government whiskey
OF the Palmetto State, which not only re-.
duces the nize of the snakes but makes
them look like csterpillsra.

came to the Manufacturers Building. Of

that was one of the hsndsomest. The

"That Was as far as we went down that
way. Then ne came back under bridge
and the same way we had gone. We saw
several ducks along the coast. The
ducks looked real nice. We also saw some
gulls.

rowed by eight figures. We then ar

While Miss Hattie was at the ground
on Friday she visited the Woman's
Building. At that time the Board of
Lady Managers were in session, and q

= Probably the largest tombstone in
the world is that of the late Henry
Scarlet of Upson County, Georgia.
Years before Mr.. Scarlett's death he
selected a monster bowlder-a miniature
mountain-aud when he died this huge
tombstone was placed over his grave.

There was 40 protest from tho half.parted
lips, 80 he continued the swift, noiseless,

her pardon. Never" was the intense
response. "Never! How dare you kias
