BACK TO OLD MISSOURI.
Robert McNear WEEDS Miss Jennings
in Indian Territory and Is Com
ing Home in Triumph
Tribulations Of the
Lovers Are
Over.

CENTRALIA, Mo, Dec. 24.-Back to
Missouri from the wilds of the Indian
Territory a train from Miami, In the
Ottawa Nation, is to-day bearing
Robert McNear and his bride. The
young man, after many disappoint-
ments, finally succeededin obtainInga
marriage license at Miami, and he and
Miss Jennings were married.
The story of their tribulations has
aroused more interest than any Incl
dent that has taken place with Gem
tralians as central figures. At first
sentiment was divided. Many took
the side of William McGraw, the lover
who was thrown over at the eleventh
hour for McNear, but the introduce
ton OF McGraw's revolver in his suit
for Miss Jennings hand, McNear's
flight behind swift horses and on q
railway train toIndianT Territory in pur-
suit of a license to wee, and the couples
trouble to get the necessary legal
documents, have all contributed to
place the sympathy of the community
on McNear's side. All Centralia will
watch for the triumphant home-com-
ing of the pair.
Both McNear and his bride are well
known here. They were members Of
the same high school graduating class.
Miss Jennings is a daughter of Warner
Jennings, a wealthy;farmer living near
C~entralia, this (Boone) county. She
is II years old.
McGraw says that he still loves Miss
jennings and believes that she wanted
to marry him. He says that Saturday
night he took Miss Jennings to church
at Centralia and they sat during the
sermon with clasped hands. He said
he had secured the fathers consent,
and out of respect to the mother he
had also asked the hand of her daugh-
ter in marriage and she readily con-
scented, but to his surprise Sunday
morning he discovered that Robert
McNear, Miss Hattie and her mother
had gone to Columbia. He followed,
tried to procure q licence but failed.

BARR AND GIBBS.
Both Are Gracefully COmpIimented
by the Senate.


Senator George T. Barr of Blue Earth
county, was reelected president pro
tenn without opposition Senator Wy
man nominated him, Senator Stevens
seconded it, and no one voted against
him. Mr.. Barr responded briefly, thank
ing his colleagues for this, their second
testimonial of esteem and good will.
He would have been Well-content had
some one else been chosen, but he was
thankful for the double honor The
senate won soon separate, never again
to be united entirely, and he expressed
the wish that all the differences and
discussions that might have arisen be
soon forgotten, while the friendships
established continue stronger.
Senator Stevens then presented
Lieut.. Gov. Gibbs, on behalf Of the
senators, with a handsome group
picture of the senate and it's officers
The senator urged that it be hung
in the household, there to remind him
of the harmony that prevailed in the
Ramsey delegation, the long and ted
ious oratory of the senator from Dodge,
and the simple efforts Of the senator
from Wabasha to care for the interests
Of the dear people. He complimented
the lieutenant governor on the fact
that none of his rulings had ever been
questioned, which, he said, was a
proof not only of his ability, but Of
his fairness.
The lieutenant governor replied in
some remarks fitting the occasion. He
had been connected with the Minnesota
Legislature thirty-three years ago, and
off and on ever since, and he did not
recall an occasion when the two branch
es worked together in greater harmony
for the good of the people. 1t had per-
formed it's duties we'll. 1t had done
great good, and real good.

affected by this measure Senator Wy
man will try to have chapter 246 re-
pealed under suspension of the rules in
/ beth houses before the bill comes up.
Senator Stebbins moved to recon-
slider the vote by which the anti-com-
pact insurance bill (S. F. 406) was de-
feated, and asked for a call of the sem
ate, which revealed but a half dozen
absentees, and it was SO reconsidered,
and after the recess Senator Stevens,
for the judiciary committee, reported an
amendment, permitting the fixing of
rates by local agents.
Senator McHale said he thought the
bill good one.
Senator Pottgieser wanted it printed
before acting on 1T.
Senator Dunn charged that the bill
had not been properly engrossed, in
sisting that combinations of local
boards were forbidden under the bill
as drawn. The bill was then killed a
second time by the following vote:
Yeas-CoIe, CuIkin, Dunn, French, Greer,
Hanson, Hodge, Howard, Johnson, w. E.,
Knatvold, Larson. McHale. Ozmun, Potter,
Sheehan, Sperry Stebbins, Stevens, Stockton,

Thorpe, Wing-2o.
Inc dIn0lQ0Q meyers Dill, WHICH WAS
so changed as to apply only to the
gas and water works, aroused some de-
bate. Senators Wyman, Ringdal and
Howard all opposed 1T on the ground
that it was not a proper measure in
its present form. 1t was then defeated
as follows:
Yeas-Cole, Collester, Cronkhite. Culkin,
Dunn French, Greer, Heneman, Tits, John
son, A. g., Lloyd, Masterman, Pottgieser,
Reishus, Roverud, Schaller Sheehan, Sperry,

With Senator Masterman in the
chair the senate then took up the sec
end special order, s. F. SO, in conjunc
ton with H. F. Is, the Miller and a
cobson railroad bills, relating to the
taking of testimony on appeals from
orders Of the railroad and warehouse
commission. After a brief discussion
it was referred to Senators Miller,
Young and Morgan.
A fight was made on Senator Pot
ter's bill, S. F. ga, relating to the
maintenance and support Of insane
persons, and action on it was deferred.
The bills to pay attorneys fees in
the Coates-Hau contest, sent in from
the house, aroused a lively debate, but
they were passed.
After a lively but fruitless wrangIe
over advancing bills, an adjournment
was had until this morning.
