Webster dennes osugue IS "A
peculiar sort Of fugitive and err
ratio epidemic rheumatism" 1t
first appeared in the British West
India Islands, and was called
dandy fever from the stiffness
and constraint it gave to the
limbs and body. The Spaniards
neighboring islands mistook the
term for their word dengue,
which means prudery, and also
is applicable to stiffness, and
hence the term dengue was at last
given scientific application to the
disease.

Adams, a well known druggist, Of
Geneva, Ala, in a letter inquiring
the price of a dozen bottles, that
he might not only have it for use in
his own family, but supply it to his
neighbors. The reason some people
get along without it, is because
they do not know it value, and what
vast amount of suffering it will
save, wherever it becomes known
and used, it is recognized as a ne.

sMITH-PEvOTO WEDDING.
Hymen Reigns Supreme IN ChaPpeh
Hill

/ Hill.
Wedding bells sent their joyous
peals echoing and re-echoing
through the ambient air Of Chap
pell Hill yesterday afternoon,
when the lives Of Mr.. j. Sterling
Smith and Miss Aimee Pevoto
we're linked for all eternity by
the golden chains of matrimony.
The event has been anticipated
for weeks. Both bride and
groom have resided from child
hood within the shades of the
classic little village, and have
grown to man and womanhood's
estate beneath the gaze of all.
Miss Pevoto is a young lady of
rare beauty and attainments, a
promising bud who has bios
somed into a sweet petaled
flower, transfusing fragrance and
love wherever she moves. Mr..
Smith has demonstrated his fit
ness to occupy an exalted posi-
ton among his fellow men, and
with cordial courtesy and gent
atty combined with business
tact and energy, has made
friends with all whom he came
| in contact.
The union was solemnized in
the Methodist church at $40
O'Clock, Rev. E.'W. Tarrant of
this city officiating. Messrs. c..
III. Cooke and H. P. Perkins
acted as ushers, and the melodi-
Gus strains of the wedding
march filled the air with musical
eloquence, from the gifted touch
of Miss Elite Lew Matthews.
The wedding party passed slowly
up the aisle of the thronged edi-
fee and passing beneath an arch
of flowers upon which rested a
floral harp, symbolical of har-
money, peace and love, stood be-
fore the alter where the sacred
words which bound them man
and wife were uttered.
After the ceremony congratu-
lations were showered upon the
happy couple. They will con-
tinue their residence in Chappell
Hill. Among the Brenhamites
who attended were Mrs. Thomas
Smith, Misses Eileen and Eva
Smith, Misses Jackson, Mrs. Col
Inns and daughters Misses Nora
and Cordie, Messrs. T. A. Hol-
land, Theodore Low and J. P.
Buchanan.
Mr.. and Mrs. Smith were
scheduled to arrive in this city
by private conveyance tonight,
and take the northbound Santa
Fe for st. Louis and other
northern points to spend their
honeymoon.

Sealy's rigid quarantine prohibits
crews from laying over and a

The Santa Fe passenger Tues
day night was the last one, both
crews having been pulled off I'M
til order is evolved from chaos.
Austin County has instituted a
strict quarantine and the only
stops allowed between Brennan
and Rosenberg are at water sta
tons. Even this is objected to
strenously. The scare has long
since grown from a nonsensical
to an injurious basis, and remed-
liable measures are apparent.
1t appears that an idle rumor
springing from the most remote
quarters are given more credence
than authentic bulletins.

stopping in Sealy for water, he
pushed his feet out of the win
dow slightly as if getting out,
eliciting the remark from a near

his head followed his feet, "P. j.
Willis would be short a sales
man."
This is one of many kilograms

safely to the north limits of the
town, and told him to walk. He
walked. He trudged into Bell

at the request of a couple of
armed citizens passed on
through without a pause. Ken
ney was reached after the shades
of night had fallen. Footsore
and hungry, he sat down on the
platform. Around the corner
came another shotgun guard,
and despite his protests was
again faced towards the north,
with the injunction to proceed"
He proceeded to proceed. Bren-
