The bride. Miss Kate CRANE, as she
is Familiarity known. was one of the
charming young ladies of the Arcadia
Valley; a place well known for beauti-
full women. The groom is one of the
enterprising young business men oil
of his city, and is engaged in the mer-
| the party repaired to the dining room
and partook of an elegant wedding
breakfast. The young couple took
| the afternoon train for the city of St.
Louis, whence they will start on the

Minneapolis and On to their home in

The following, taken from the Kan
sas City Packer, only reiterates the
| REGISTERS suggestions upon the mat
| ter treated of, and will aaoW meet with
the appreciation of every person of
sane mind. Yet, few short months
ago, when we intimated that the ex-
ercise Of little caution upon the part
| of cur citizens would not be out of
place, the advice and warning were
not received with the utmost compla-
cency; on the contrary,-but hearken
to the Packer: Victims of the bonus
craze continue to come to the surface,
the latest being the people of Ironton,
Mo-, who listened to the seductive
promises of schemers to build and
operate WOODEN mills. After doing
enough work on the factory to establish
confidence so that stock could be sold
and part of the bonus collected, the
enterprise collapsed with the usual
dull thud, and the much-desired facto-
ry has proven a loss instead of source
of wealth to the Irontonians. There
are scores of other towns in Missouri
which have been similarly afflicted,
proposed canning factories and cream
cries having been chiefly used by the
schemers to entrap the unwary. Ex-
perience has proven that in ninety
nine out of every hundred cases, en-
terprises which demand bonus are
not worth having. As general thing
propositions to establish industries for
a bonus should be regarded with sus-
picion and should be subjected to a
searching examination"
