Married Good and Strong.

A couple called upon a well-known
justice of the peace in Webster county,
w. Va, and desired to be pronounced
man and wife. The sturdy old officer
OF the law, fully cognizant of the inn
portant duty he had to perform, dis
charged it III the following impressive
and obviously novel manner:
"By the authority vested in me as an
officer Of the great state of West Nir-
ginia, which is sometimes called the
Switzerland of America; by the hill of
half developed corn and grounding
holes that spread out around us; by
the howl of the coon dog and the
gourd vine whose clinging tendrils will
shade the entrance to your dwelling
place; by our hillside pumpkins, whose
frost bitten presence reminds one of
the melancholy face of his grand
mother; by the heavens and the earth,
and in the presence of these witnesses,
pronounce you man and wife!"

SENT TO JAIL.
a Port Huron Girl In Trouble at De-
troIt.-She Stole a Trunk.

The Detroit Tribune publishes the
following
Lizzie Michaels, Port Huron girl
about nineteen years old, was de-
PENDANT i'm the Police Court yesterday
morning and pleaded not guilty to the
larceny of trunk and contents be-
longing to Nellie Jordan, of Yale, and
valued at 500.
The Michaels girl up to four weeks
ago had roomed at the house OF Mrs.
Hannah Drew. of ID East Park Place.
She left this house and went to ROOM
ing at 81 West Park place. Here she
claimed she was variety dancer and
was resting for the summer. Ten days
ago she had large trunk brought to
the house, and Immediately arrayed
herself in some of the clothing that
was in it. Not content with wearing
the things herself, she made presents
of the clothing in it to different friends
and this led to her arrest.
Sunday night she left the Ganoon-
der household at 81 West Park place
and engaged room at ~ West Park
place and commenced to carry her
belongings to that house. Mrs. Ga
noonder missed some of her wearing
apparel and on looking into Lizzie's 5
trunk found the missing articles. She
called for policeman, but Lizzie es-
caped arrest on returning the property.
The trunk, which was the property
of Nellie Jordan, had been left at 10
Park place while the owner visited her
home in Yale. Ten days ago, while
Lizzie Michaels was visiting Mrs.
Drew. she was told that Mr.. Drew had
received letter from Nellie Jordan to
the effect that William Mcdonald
would call with written order and
get the trunk. The next morning an
expressman called and handed Mrs.
Drew ar order for the trunk. This
order, instead of being from Mr.. Nc
Donald, was written by Lizzie Mich
aels. 1t was taken to Li2Zie's room at
81 Park place. When the wagon sent
by Mcdonald arrived he found that
the trunk had been taken away. Com
plant was made to the police and the
matter was placed in the hands OF De-
tectiye Lombard.
Tuesday Miss Jordan called on Mrs.
Drew and found her wearing an apron
which had been given her by Lizzie
Michaels. Lizzie was soon placed
under arrest. She has been working
in a number of different restaurants
and q warrant has been out for sew
eral weeks charging her with stealing
a gold ring. She has been complained
of several times, but always managed
to elude prosecution.

+. II. PARKINSON, candidate for rep
resentative in the state legislature,
third district, st. Clair county, was
born in London township, Canada,
June IL, ls4s, consequently he now is
man in the very prime of life, 46
years old. When he was 2 years of
age, his parents moved to Bosanquet
township and in March. 1857, they
came to Emmett, Michigan. where he
settled on farm and lived there un-
til October 1893, when the farm was
sold and to give his children the ad-
vantage of good schooling he came to
Yale village and entered into business
with w. II. Harris. Mr.. Parkinson is
first-class farmer and has always
followed that vocation and the farm
is the place to which he will sooner or
later return. He has a large and adj
mirable family to whom he would
sacrifice his own inclinations that the
children might receive good educa-
ton, which he believes to be most
necessary to success in life. The par
ents of Mr.. Parkinson were born in
County of Down, Ireland and were
members of the Church of England
until coming to Michigan, when they
united with the Presbyterian church
and it was in this latter faith that their
son was trained.

A unique innovation of the postal
card system will soon be adopted in
France. Instead of the cards being
separate, as they now are, they will be
issued in the form of cheque books
with stubs. A memoranda of the sub
stance of the contents of the card can
be entered on the stub, and the sender
can have this stamped at the post
Office before the card is detached, so
that verified record of the CORES

that people began scTamblinG in a wild en-
deavor to reach the door. Women and chill
dren were trampled under foot. and, as

crowd and the door, many rushed heaQlong

at am, was one of the fercest that has
ever visited the wholesale district Of Main
street From midnight until o'clock the
battle for supremacy ragged between the
almost frozen firemen and the flames, and
1t as not until the plucky firemen, under
the leadership of heroic Maj. Hughes, were
aim ost prostrated by the cold, that the
progress Of the conflagration was checked
and the block from 9Th to 9th streets saved
from destruction. AS result of the fire
the buildings occupied by Stucky, Brent &
Co., on 9th street between Main and Water;
]. H. Quasi & Co., 533 West Main street; j.

stroyed

lows: Stuckey, Brent e. Co., $4,000, in
surance $50, 600; building, owned by Mrs.
Mary r. Tevis, 10000; j NJ. Robinson, Nor

fering from a congestive chill brought on
