Peter 10 All Rirht.

Peter G. Levin, who built for the county
the vault In the rear Of the Bottomley
building. recently destroyed by fire, writes
the Record that the vault was let by con.
tract; that he was the lowest bidder, and
therefore got the job. Also, that he was
hired by the sheriff to do repair work on
the Jail, "by order of the board of com.
missioners." Peter is all right; the Rec.
ord has no criticism to make of him for
taking any work he can honorably get to
do. But the Record believes that the
board had no right to expend money to
build vault on some one else's property,
when the county had better and safer
building Of its own where 1t could have
had its Offices right along.
Az to the Jail repairs. the Record was
right when 1t stated that the board gave
control Of the work to Auditor Armstrong,
d the official minutes OF the board show.
They also gave him. by resolution, entire
conttol of the Job printing, and ss long
as he could, after the Record began to
fight the gang, he sent 1t all to the winons
Times. which, We believe, bears US out in
our statement that Auditor Armstrong
was given authority over the printing in
order that the Record might be punished
for fighting the bribery gang and the re.
turning board.

Burned To Death in Kia4er Count,


Probably the most tragic event ever re-
corded In the county was the burning to
death Of four month Q. old infant Of Mr..
and Mrs. Charles Hsrte. four miles south
Of ,Tappen, Monday evening last. when
the Harte residence was destroyed by fire.
!, Mr.. Harte had returned from tswn with
. lot Of groceries in his wagon. and was
putting up his team. having slipped into
tho house merely to hang his buffalo coat
on nail beside the door. While at the
barn his wife Joined him. and as they
were chatting few minutes afterward.
one Of his children ran out crying that
the house was on fire. Mr.. Harte ran in
and found the flames we're burning thro'
the floor. above the bed. where he sup.
posed the baby lay. On the walls hung
braids of seed corn. and the burning husks
and ears were dropping on the bedding.
He searched about the bed in the smoke
and flames. but could not find the baby.
Just then he heard his wife at the window
and turning saw her frantlcally breaking
in the sash with her hands. Mrs. Harte
had placed the baby in quilt and laid 1t
in . rocking chair near the window. In
lifting out the babe its head was cut by .
piece of glass, but the IRE had already
burned its face to blister and its hands
were charrsd nearly 10 the bone. The
little unfortunate breathed but q few
gasps and expired. The house with every.
thing in it was totally destroyed, not an
article Of clothing being saved. The
Hsrtes had one Of the cosiest homes in
the county. They had resided there twelve
years. They have the deepest sympathy
Of all people in this peculiarly sad Of.
Fiction. The funeral took place at Daw-
Fson. Thursday. and was attended by an
unusually large number Of sympathizing
friends and residents from far and near.

She Got Her Bridal Kiss.

Many guests at a fashionable church we'd
ding few days ago were surprised when they
saw the bridegroom stop near the door and
kiss the bride. says the New York Herald.
1t was so marked a departure from the old
rule OF ending the wedding ceremony by a
kiss that 1t caused great deal of comment.
Very few of those who saw that interesting
feature of what the bride regarded as an i'm
portant part Of the ceremony knew how it all
came about Hundreds of friends had
watched the lovely girl as she moved grace
fully toward the altar After the ring, which
told that she was bride, had been placed on
her finger the young bride looked lovingly
toward the bridegroom. Cne could see she
was ready to receive the bridal kiss.
But the bridegroom had apparently forgot
ten that part Of the ceremony He seemed
interested only in getting out Of the church,
and abruptly offered the young woman his
arm. With a little pout Of annoyance she
placed her hand on his arm, and they started
toward the church entrance
The bride did not intend to leave that
church without having obtained a bridal kiss.
which to her seemed to he OF as much i'm
portance In the ceremony as the words of the
minister.
When near the door she whispered some
thing to the bridegroom which he. in his
efforts to get beyond the gaze of the throng
in the church, failed to understand.
You did not give me my kiss" the bride
repeated, in tone which caused her words
to be heard by some of the guests near the
door.
Il beg your pardon. but 1 forgot all about
1t, whispered the bridegroom and right at
the door he gave the bride the kiss she had
expected to receive at the altar.
Then the bride, complete happiness having
been restored by this rounding out of the
marriage ceremony, walked gracefully out to
the carriage and was driven away with face
wreathed IN smiles.
