Spouse of the Italian ruler has been

A MATRIMONIAL PICNIC.
ChicagO's Scheme to Increase the Num-
Der of Marriages.

Chicago, H.. Sept. "a matrimonial
picnic is the Windy city's latest novelty
1t is to be held at Jackson park, and the
party has only one object. 1t is designed
expressly for the purpose of making
matches-the kind usually made in heav-
en-, not those with sulphur on one end.
All unmarried men. without regard for
previous condition of servitude, are invit-
ed, and it is to be their own fault if they
do not pick up some coy young thing who
is willing to darn socks, build the fire
and ride on the front seat of the tandem.
There will be an official phrenologist at
the picnic. He will indicate, after in
vestigating cranial bumps and hollows,
who should be proposed to and to whom
should go the honor of asking the lady to
be his wife. No rromiscuous matches
will be allowed. Bumps will decide ev-
erything.
The posters will. no doubt, furnish any
additional information required:

The relations existing between Mr.

Mrs. Hopper is about to institute will
result in the severance of the latter,

UPON HIM BY EX-TREASURER
STEVENS.
EDITOR DAILY STAR: In your is
sue Of the 10Th, ex-Treasurer Ste
vens makes some statements which
are calculated to rn;sIead the pub
llc. He says he did not offrr ne
a check f3r the amount due the
county, while III the rext sentence
be says, 81 do net know Why he
would not receive the fu0dS, books,
etc, unless he hal Cause to BE-
liev> that the bank could not NEST

he had drawn a check tor the
amount aud was going TO the bank
10 draw the ,mon=Y and count il
over TO me. Let Us see. When

drew it i'll favor Of A. Il aGr fin,
50 he stated to ne, and should |
have received the check, | NEST
assuredIy would have had to re-
c2ipt him for it IS 50 much money.
Now how could he have gone
and drawn ;he money on this
check unless | had endorsed it
back to him whica would have left
nc ard my bondSmen il the hoe
and Mr.. Stevens and his bondsmen
released.
When Mr.. Stevens met NE and
said that he was ready and l tod
him / was not, my reason wa this:
The bank at this time had closed
for business for that day, and l
wanted to quietly wait until nsx'
morning, aud when it opaned, give
Mr.. Stevens a cnance to get the
cesh. However, l did not know
the bank was g,ing to close for
good, as Mr.. Stevens charges.
An n1;her reason, Mr.. d. A. Mil
.sr wa to give ne The total foot
ngs Of The various accounts be-
tween Mr.. Stevens and the county
bsfore I rec ipscd Mr.. Stevens for
same. This he hal not done and
| walled tlrectiy over TO his office
but Mr. Miller was not in, and his
son TOD ne : c had gone home.
l then said 10 Mr. Ch2s. Miller
Tel ) cur father l will be in early

tnat he had checks drawn ano
everything ready to turn cvsr to

Had Mr.. Stevens been "a coed

Once more Death, the fell destroy.
err, has invaded our ranks, and re.
moved from us one of our members
Brother L. n. Staub, one Of our old
and faithful members, who has been
with us since our organization as a
lodge to the time of his death, and a
loyal member both in our early
trials, and later, prosperity, has pass.
ed away. After protracted illness
which he endured patiently and sub.
missively, he gently fell asleep and
while his mortal body rests under
the sod, his soul has gone in triumph
to the spirit land, TO Him who gave
it.
Brother Staub was a pattern Of a
husband and father, and citizen,
neighbor and friend of eminent
worth. His loyalty to his lodge
was unbroken, and while we miss
him as such, his memory will remain
enshrined in every Pythian heart.
Our heartfelt sympathies go out
to the family in their sorrow, but
with the assurance that by kissing
the rod that smites Them" their
tears will turn to pearls of Joy.
The above was unanimously pass
