1T seems quite fad among the mar
r!ed men of the day to tell how they got
their wives. but I have yet to discover
the benedict whose experience was SINH
lar to my own
The speaker is a jolly man of fortune
and he told his story just after his male
guests had thrown aside their cards, says
the Detroit Free Press.
L grew up in the south before they had
their serious trouble down there. Between
my family and that on the next planta-
ton there was a feud something like that
between the Montagues and the Capulets
The colonel and my father did not go on
each others trail with a shotgun, but they
let each other severely alone except when
one could stab the other socially or polit-
ically.
The colonels daughter and 1 fell in
love when we used to meet as school chill
dren and on the mountain gathering wild
flowers. When told my father later of
my affection, he stormed and raVed and
forbade me ever seeing or ever again hold
ing communication with the girl. She,
too, had declared herself and the same
sentence was imposed by the fre-eating
colonel. Neither of us made any rash
promises, but We were so closely watched
that we could never get within sight of
each other.
LAS youngster had delighted in car
rier pigeons and as a token of my bud
ding affection, had given the colonePs
daughter some. In our time of distress
this infantile generosity came back as
blessing. Her maid and my man would
meet in the creek bottom and
exchange pigeons. Hers would
go home with a missive of
love about its neck and mine bore the
same precious message to me. Thus we
courted and thus We planned an elope-
ment that was brought off successfully.
For day the two hot-headed old fathers
made the air hot and sulphurous. Then
after the usual red tape in those times
of 'chivalry' they met, became reconciled,
sent for us and heartily joined in the
laugh at the way in which they had been

Wizard Thomas A. Edison promises
that the market will soon be flooded with
motor carriages at such low figure that
almost every man can own his own We
hicle. Though they were made at his
place, MIR. Edison was not the inventor
of the motor with which these horseless
carriages will be equipped. THE boys
up there tell me-" Mr.. Edison said, in
speaking of them, that they have
cheap motor and are going to turn out a
large number of low priced vehicles" It
is estimated that these horseless carriages
will not cost more than 800 each. and as
bicycles at this price have come within
the reach of almost everybody. it is easy
to see that if this promise is complied
with. the market win in truth be flooded.
The bicycle manufacturers evidently have
a wide field of competition ahead of them.

The tea duty is too much of a concession
to the for revenue only" people, says
the Detroit Journal a belated republican
organ. which goes on to show that 1t is
contrary TO the republican protective
policy. The rest Of the country. many Of
the leading republican journals included,
seems to have come to the conclusion that
it was a necessary concession. As mat
ter of fact, the republicans discovered
that At was necessity, rather than con-
cession. and they were forced TO follow
a policy which they could not we'll avoid.

From tho Philadelphia Record CDem

From the Philadelphia Record (Dem)
II is probable that no power IN Europe
Is so much astonished and disappointed
10y the extraordinary vitality Of the Sick
Man at Constantlnople as the Russian
government. The deeper the degeneration
and the greater the impotency Of Turkey
the more brilliant the prospects OF Russia
for the extension OF her eastern empire.
Hence the display of his old-time military
prowess by the Ottoman on the plains
OF Thessaly comes most inopportunoly for
the Cossacks. and suggests the possibility
that the prey which they have watched
and coveted for centuries may yet slip
hrough their long fingers.

No Occasion for Alarm.
From the Philadelphia Times Qnd

There is no occasion whatever for alarm
at the present gold exports. Present con-
ditions make these exports logical and in
evitable. 1t is equally needless to expect
immediate increase of revenue from the
new tariff, and as needless to expect in
creased markets for American products
until many months after the new tariff
shall go into operation. Let us look the
facts in the face and remember them.

HILTON TROPHY GOES TO GEORGIA
Owing to the Strong Wind and
other U~nfay0rable Conditions
Low Scores Were Made.

Especial to 1.-THE Jersey City News."l
SEA GRIT, Sept. 4, 1Ss7.-There was a
marked improvement in the work OF the
New Jersey contestants in the rifle shoot
yesterday. The days programme opened,
after a small skirmish run that had been
pushed over from Thursday, by the
match for the Hilton trophy. This con-
test of the National Rifle Association Is
one of the three most important COM
petitions of the week. The trophy, which
was given by Hon. Henry Hilton of New
York. is valued at. 5 $1,000. The contest is
seven shots at 200, 500 and 600 yards. The
very high wine that blew all the morning
made possibles impossible, and forced the
men to go slowly. The competition on
the 200-yard range took three and a half
hours. 1t was the most exciting one of
the week so far, because the Georgians
did not get a long lead as they did yester-
day at the start. At the contest the Jer-
sey boys got ahead. Hubschmidt led the
the ank spoiled a fine score for Spring
sted and also for Var Kelst. The Geor-
gians had the most misses. Their fortune
started with one by Cam, and five more
followed. The Jerseyites hot very steady
with one or two exceptions. General
Spencer and Governor Griggs acted as
coaches. On the 500-yard range the Jer-
seymen fell behind. Van Kelst's five
straight ''fiunks'' were discouraging, while
Georgia's %possibles were also dishearten-
ing. The totals were:-
