honor were two charming little girls
six or seven years Of age, who made
beautiful picture In their hands they
carried straw baskets gaiIy trimmed
with ribbons These baskets were filed
with every kind of flowers, field grasses,
and delicate ferns As the bride came
down the aisle these little girls at quite
d distance in front of her, threw these
flowers right and left in her pathway,
until they reached the church door.
They then separated letting the bride
and her party pass by This pretty bit
was most cIeyerIy done, having been
rehearsed many times before the event
took place

signs all point that way. He IL a clean.
honest and able man. The moral temper
of our pie has been so stirred of late
that they will have no candidate sus-
pected Of alliance with political manipu-
lztiOn- Here is one of MckinIey's strong
points He IS free from all com binarions
and secret cabaIs. He stands for him

Senator Sherman and t>le great class fer
which he stands indorse him. Then,
again, the governor believes in having
