A ROMANTIC MARRIAGE.
A Couple Engaged In Youth Marry Tn
 Their Old Age.


 A romantic wedding took place at Sedan, Kan, recently, i'll which Squire Turner of Cedarville, aged 73, and Amanda M Gillespie of Mclean county, Ills, aged 63, were the contracting parties. By appointment they met at Sedan and were married by J. D. Me- Bryan, in the presence of MT. Turner's children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.
 Nearly 30 years ago the bride knew the groom in Illinois. She formed all attachmentforh him which lasted all these years, and although Mir Turner had re- moved to the west and married another his present bride waited faithfully for the time when he would again be free.
 Those who are familiar with the case and remember the love early plighted in Illinois say it is the most remarkable on record. Two months ago Squire Fur ner wrote to Miss Gillespie. The pro posal of marriage was made and ac- cepted without delay or ceremony.
 The happy couple are now comforta- bly housed in their little cottage at Oe- darville where they are surrounded with three generations of the Turner family. Chicago Times Herald.

From Which Is Gathered How Morton
 Regards His Presidential Chances.
 The windows of Governor Morton $ mansion in Washington again contain q card announcing that the property is for sale or rent After his election as gov ernor the house was advertised, and several wealthy people, including Sen ator Wetmore of Rhode Island and the Austrian minister, entered into negotia- tions for it. But the high and infiexibls price placed upon it by the owner pre- vented it's sale.
 Last fall when MT. Morton came out as presidential candidate the advertise ments were taken down, and the agent explained that it was done by instruc- tions from headquarters. The natural in- ference was that Mir Morton's confi- dence ill his election induced him to withdraw the property from the market. because if he ever is president he will not live in the White House. The resto- ration of the card therefore is regarded as sign of discouragement.- Chicago Record

She raised the other to remove the first hand, when that, too, lost it's power and she col lapsed.
 Mis- Fawcett is only 19 years old and was married on Dec 23, when she was the bride in the big Salvation Army wedding.

Has Peculiar LarynX, Which She Uses tO
 Whistle With.
 Medical and musical people have taken great interest in the little 8-year-old whistling girl of New Haven, Eva w Spear, because of the rarity of the laryn- zeal whistle, note made entirely from the larynx.
 The little girl whistles all the popu- lar airs in this strange manner, and the medical fraternity have become so inter- ested in the case they have asked per- mission of her parents to make an ex- animation of the larynx by means oA mirrors and other apparatus The exam. ination will be made within few days
 Only one other case, so far as known, has ever been reported either in this country or Europe, and that was men, tioned by Dr Munger of Waterbury, Conn.,, in recent issue of The Medical Record.
 This little girl whistles with or with out accompaniment and takes high or low notes without difficulty and with mouth opened or closed. She can whistle with her tongue clasped between her fingers, the notes all coming from ths larynX.

Coin Harvey Submits q Plan of

Coin Harvey Submits q Plan OF
Campaign.
Ashland, Wis, June 29.-W. H. Coin
Harvey in an interview here said:
81 am trying to combine the democrats
silver republicans and populists, and
have suggested the following plans to
the leaders Of the parties:
For president or the democratic
ticket, Silver Dick Bland of Missouri.
If elected give him the appointment of
one cabinet officer only, secretary of
state. Let the democrats lndorse the
populist nominee for vice president on
the populjst ticket, Senator Marion But
Ter of North Carolina. Let the populists
indorse thel democratic nominee for
president. Let MIR. Butler IL elected,
dictate the appointment Of secretary of
the interior, secretary of agriculture,
secretary CT war and secretary of the
navy. Concede to the silver republicans
three cabinet positions-Senator Teller
of Colorado, secretary of the treasury;
Judge Caldwell of the United States cir
cult court, attorney general, and Mayor
Pingree of Detroit, postmaster general.
The silver cause is desperate, and We
can't beat Mckinley without we COM
bine as have Indicated. l have sug-
gested the plan to Altgeld, Bland and
other leaders, but it has not been made
public yet. l tell the democrats not to
make their platform too democratic.
They cannot win as democrats, but as
a combined democracy, popullst and
silver republican. L am in favor or
Bland for president, because his name
is n platform in itself, just as McKinley's
name is a whole platform.
the Intention of Dur forefathers In
establishing our electoral system was
that the electors should be elected as
they are now and that they should then
meet and after discussion, vote for
whom they wished. There Is no law
compelling an elector to vote for any
man. 1t is merely custom. Now l want
to tell you thai if the democrats. popu-
lists and free silver republicans do not
get together as l have indicated they
will ultimately combine in the electoral
college.
"The plan I suggest of dividing cabi-
net officers among these parties and
of the distribution of abine officers
will take care of eight states. Pingree
can carry Michigan, Teller half a dozei,
western states, and Caldwell can carry
Iowa and the southwest. There are
10000 republicans in Iowa who van to
vote for Caldwell. There are eight cabi-
net positions, and their distribution In
this way beforehand would carry eight
doubtful states for silver"
