The Detroit, Lamar county, corre- spondent of the Hamilton News Press says:
 After Rev. Robert Wilson had con cluded services at Wesley Chapel last Sunday the audience was surprised when MT. George Pickle and Miss Glo Williams stepped into the altar and were mar ried in the Rev MT Wilson's pleasing style. The young couple were from Splunge, Miss, and had quietly stolen away from the "old folks at home" While we deeply sympathize with those whom this affair may have displeased, we heartily extend the old time wish you much joy" etc.

AFTER TWO YEARS.
Apprehension of Negro Murderer Under
 Unusual Circumstances.


 Unusual Circumstances.
 Monday morning, as the force of hands engaged in digging trenches for the water mains started out to work, says the Marion Standard. a negro stepped up to Mf Ed Lee, who has charge of a squad of hands and asked for work MT. Lee told him all right, and asked for his name, which he wrote down with the list of the others. The negro said his name was Rufe Hardy. Deputy Sheriff Joe King was present at the time, and hearing the negro's name caused him to remember having received letter of in quiry about a negro by that name from the sheriff of Greene county nearly two years ago.
 He went to his office at once, and after diligent search found the papers bear ing on the case, and went immediately and arrested the negro.
 He is wanted in Greene county for the murder of a woman, whom it is alleged he shot down at dance one night.
 The sheriff of Greene county was at once notified of the arrest and he came over yesterday after his man.

POISON BROADCAST.
Some rIeddlesome Individual Scattering
 the Seeds of Unkindness.


 The epidemic of poison is not yet over, judging from the recent deaths among the canine tribe says the Florence Her aid. The miscreant who has been spreading strychnne broadcast over the city is no less than a criminal and a poltroon, and should be dealt with se- verely if found out. Not only valuable dogs have been killed, but a valuable COW, too, has been poisoned, the property of J. J. Snyder. The poison was not con fined to any section, but scattered all over the city, and in some instances thrown in the front yards of citizens. Even children are liable to pick up the poison as it is scattered around promis- cuously. Something should be done to detect the miscreant.

we're in a condition of healthy prosperity

There is danger in getting thin, because it's
a sign Of letting down III health. To gain

some flesh. The odds are in favor of the
germs of consumption, grip, or pneumonia,
if our liver be inactive and our blood I'M

increase in our germ fighting strength. DR..

builds I'D the strength. A medicine which

UTILITY VASES.

A large vase, such as usually serve:
fora potted plant, makes good UNI
brella stand, and these are found in
every variety of color and style. One
of the big, pot-bellied Moorish or Span
ish peasant pottery, in rough, quaint
designs of blue and yellow on white or
of a rich, dark green solid color, re-
lieved only by gradations of color in
the glaze, would be effective and sub
stantial. Some such receptacle is, of
course, a necessity, and, in fact, the
furnishings of a hall may be divided
into the indispensable and the orna-
mental. Under the first head must be
noted dish or tray for cards, and some
sort of box or basket-better still, two
of differing size and shape-for letters
incoming and outgoing. This last item,
of course, depends somewhat upon the
customs Of the household IN the matter
Of correspondence, but in any case
every country house hall should have
card of hours for the visitors bene-
1t, on which meal time, post, church
and train time and such pieces of in.
formation should be plainly stated.
Such cards may be as elaborately print
I'd and illuminated as taste dictates.
But the figures must be clear and plain.
Big, round rush baskets, such as are
called "egg baskets" make pretty let
;er and card receivers in the country,
md the same shape can be found in
The Algerian ones, with bits OF gay
solored cloths braided in with their
