MISTAKE OF sWE EIDE LOVERS.
Unsophistieated Couple are Married
and Didn't Know Tt.

Larned, Nov. 19.-From a prosperous
Swede settlement near Garfield, in the
western part of this county comes
story of a wedding with a peculiar Sc
queI.
Last Monday morning Oscar Exstron
and Miss Maria AVeIegrene, his intend
ed bride and a recent arrival from
Sweden, appeared at the office of Pro
bate Judge Benjamin Gore and re-
Quested a marriage license. They were
not strictly up-tO-date in matters
American and when Judge Gore asked
them if they wanted to get married
they answered in the affirmative. The
judge sent out and had several wit
neSSeS from adjoining offices come and
witness him perform the marriage Ger
elnOny. After the proceeding was over
the judge handed them marriage GER
tificate and the young people suppOsing
they had the much wanted marriage Ii
cense went on their way rejoicing and
invited some 80 or 40 of their friends
and relatives to their wedding which
was TO take place the following We'd
nesday. The young groom sent to
LindsbOrg and secured the services OF
q noted Swedish minister to come and
perform the ceremony. The brides
parents made elaborate preparations
for q wedding feast on the happy day,
on Wednesday. At the appointed hour
the guests assembled and the young
people were brought forward to take
the marriage vows. The minister ask
ed the young groom for his marriage
license. The document was handed him
tilIlt ne utCldI6Q lidb
his services We're not needed; that the
young folks We're already man and
wife, had been so for three days and
that he held in his hand the marriage
certificate.
The announcement fell upon the
whole party like q thunderbolt out of a
clear sky. The bride tainted at the feet
of the paralyzed groom RestoraUiVes
were applied to the young wife and aft
er several minutes OF hard york she was
nnally restored to consciousness The
young groom Wept bitterly and was in
consolaoIe. II required over an hours
time and the efforts of the entire as
sembla Sc to convince the young bride
and groom that no harm had been done
and that all that remained for them to
do was to eat. drink and be merry and
receive the concentrations OF their
friends Thus the happy denOuement
came at last and the two principals
with TWO hearts that beat as one are

Little Town of ROzel Drops Ont
of Existence.
Remarkable Phenomenon in
Pawnee County.
THE EARTH YAWNED.
Depot and Two Small Elevators
Disappear.
Parallel Case in Meade County
Years Ago.
THE EARTH YAWNED.

Larned, Nov. 19.-One of those re-
narkabIe freaks which go to confirm
the belief that a great river or sea un-
derflows all of Western Kansas has
just occurred near here.
When the shades of evening length
ened into darkness last night, the rail
road station at Rozel, on the Jetmore
branch of the A, T. & S. F. r. r., IS
miles northwest of here nestled peace
fully on the bosom OF the prairie, and
no one doubted that the morrow's sun
would awaken its little industries to
their usual life and activity.
This morning when those who live in
the neighborhood turned their atten-
ton toward the little hamlet, they
were thunderstruck to discover that
the place which the night before had
consisted of depot, two or three small
elevators and a few other small build
ings, had completely disappeared from
the surface OF the earth.
Investigation proved that the bottom
had actually dropped out Of the land
upon which the village was located, and
that it had disappeared. Hundreds OF
people have visited and gazed in Won
der on the scene today. The hole is
about an acre and a half in extent, Of
a uneven, OblOng shape, with rough,
to within 20 feet of the surface with
dark, stagnant looking water, into
Which everything thrown, even lumber
and light boards. imm ediately Sink.The
depth of this water is unknown, as the
longest ropes have as yet been unable
to touch bottom.
The theory is that whatever is
thrown into the water is drawn under
and carried along Icy the underllOW, but
there is no current or agitation of the
surface water in the hole TO strength
en- this theory. The fact alone remains
that everything thrown into the water
depths, never to be recovered.
No lives We're lost, as no people re-
main at the station over night, the
nearest residents being a family of
farmers half a mile distant.
The catastrophe has a parallel in
similar freak which occurred in Meade
county about ten years ago. when a
section Of land crossed by a public road
disappeared in d single night in the
same way. leaving a chaSm which was
the wonder OF all for many mOnths,an
which remains today d notable land
mark OF more than ordinary interest

REDS TO BE BARRED.
No Anarch SITS " anted in Chicago
Social Democracy.

Chicago. Nov. 19-Anarchists viii be
barred actually from the meetings OF
branch No. of the Social Democracy
of America in the future.
The police will be called in if neces-
sary to suppress the reds" who have
sOWn dissensiOn in the organization,
and more than once succeeded in plac-
ing il on record as in favor of TOO much
radicaHsm.
At a secret session following the reg
ular meeting of the branch yesterday it
was decided to make 4 firm stand
against revolutionary talk in the fu
ture. The decision will be formally an
nOunced at the next regular meeting.
Mrs. Fanny Clarke KaVanagh, preSi-
dent of the branch, says she Will never
permit the radicals to carry the meet
ingS by storm as they have in the past
As long as she presides, she says, they
must stick to the principles of the So
cial Democracy. which she understands
to favor law and order.
The radicals have made no end of
trouble in the organization. They have
tried to turn the old officers out in or
der to secure the full control and pledge
the initial branch of DebS' social
scheme to the cause of murder and ar
son.
An officers of the organization said
yesterday:
I'VE have decided to handle this ques-
ton without gloves from now on. We
are not anarchists. We do not propose
to allow he reds to take us into their
camp, and as 4 measure OF precaution
our doors Will be closed to them in the
future. If any speaker gives EXPIRES
sion to belief in murder and arson as
a means Of solving the social problems
of the day he VIII be given fair warn
ing to curb his Oratory on that point.
If he persists, the sergeant -at-arms
viii remove him from the hail without
ceremony. Should any man persist in
disturbing our meetings in this manner
we viii act as IaW-abiding citizens
should by turning him over to the po-
lice"
During the secret session one of the
members made the general charge that
certain 'so-called radicals We're in re
ality enemies in disguise, and no doubt
in the pay Of some person or persons
interested in the disruption Of the So
cial Democracy.
Another speaker said it mattered lit
tie whether such men We're open or Sc
cret enemies, as they We're certainly
detrimental TO the organization and
must be treated accordingly in the fu-
ture.
1t was stated by one of the national
executive board that the action of
branch No. l would be approved by the
national officers, including Mr. Dehs,
and that the reds would have no such
license in the future as had been given
them in the past.
