SECRET WEDDING LEAKS OUT.
sERGT. MEADOWS MARRIEs A
NURSE AT FORT MCPHERSON.

The Union Held As n Secret for a
Time. Bat Finally Becomes Known
and the Bride Receives Her Dis
charge From the service - Mai.
TnyIor Doesn't Think "A. Woman
Can Love and Nurse the Sick at
the same Time, and for Sake Of
Discipline Uses Mrs. Meadows as
an Example.
Atlanta. Ca. Sept ia nice little 70
nance that came to surface at Fort Nc
Pherson several days ago came 20 rather
direful crisis to-day, when Mrs. Charles
Meadows, one of the hospital nurses. was
discharged from the service by order Of
Mai Taylor in command of the hospital
corps.
Mrs. Meadows is a bride of only a few
days She came here when the hospital
was established from Louisville, where she
had been a professional nurse. She was
then Miss Daisy Deigl.
Soon after she took up her duties at the
post she fell in with Sergt. Meadows of
the hospital corps, and soon the two We're
heels over head in love with each other.
The upshot of the matter was a quiet
marriage, which the happy pair succeeded
In keeping secret for week 1t leaked out
last Saturday, and soon after the knowl-
edge came to the ears of Maj. Taylor he
decided that some thing must be done to
preserve discipline, and ward off any future
surprises from cupid, and so he summoned
the bride before him, and after a few faith
erly words of congratulation and comfort
said he was compelled to dismiss her from
the hospital service, as no married women
were eligible under the rules. The bride
took the situation bravely, though she
was greatly disappointed She says she
will return TO Louisville to await the return
of her bridegroom, who can't get out of
the army as easily as he would probably
like just now, as he is an enlisted man.
Mai. Taylor's idea is that the nurses enter
the service to help the sick and not to look
for husbands, and that if they allow their
minds TO wander into lovelike humors they
win neglect the suffering, so as a horrible
example to others who might be falling
from grace, so to speak, he was compelled
TO take summary measures with the Louis
vile girl and her soldier lover.

THE REIssER INVESTIGATION.
1t Was Resumed Yesterday Before
the Board of Education at GuytOn.

- WINS ReSumeu AeAteFOay before
the Board of Education at GuytOn.
Guyton, Ga, Sept 19-The investigation
of School Commissioner Reisser was re-
sumed to-day before the county board of
education, Col D. H. Clark representing
the prosecution and Col. w. B. Stubs the
defense.
+. d. Seckinger was the first witness
called. He was kept on the stand over
three hours. His testimony did not bear
directly on the case in hand further than
to show that Nazarine Goldwire had re-
Gently been living on the plantation of
School Commissioner Reisser and that for
some cause she had been induced to leave
the county
1t is claimed by the prosecution that
the Goldwire woman stated that the school
commissioner had cohabited with her and
the result therefrom was not fruitless. At
ter making this statement a committee
called on her and she signed an affidavit
stating that the commissioner had never
had such connection with her.
Col. Clark attempted to get from the
witness that this affidavit was forced from
the woman. The testimony of the witness
did not establish this
During the examination of Mr. Seckln
ger 1t was shown that tine father of the
Goldwtre woman bought a piece of land
from the commissioner and had failed to
pay for it, but since this investigation
started the land has been paid for.
The hearing win continue, but at the
present rate of progress several days will
be consumed before it is concluded.

less Offices" This Is q great improve
ment ON your former position when you
sustained and upheld your editorial SUI
periOr while he drew $780,, 900 from the
State Of Kansas in two years for the
public printing. II Is evidently your
Harvard college idea that the minor ex-
penses should be cut down, but chat the
man who has the dignity to demand
$4,000 should not be bothered with
little puny criticisms.
Your earnest desire for economy is
eVinced by the fact that you are opposed
to paying a reasonable salary TO an at
tOrney to do the routine work and at the
same time protect the legislation which
you declare would arouse expensive litl-
cation from the railroads, but insist ON
retaining the present method OF spend
ing thousands Of dollars for special coun-
sci In the various causes, such as have
been employed to assist the Attorney
General for the past year because 1t was
an absolute physical impossIbillty for
any one Attorney General to even appear

If the railroad managers OF the past
had made as fair an effort as believe
some Of them show disposition to now
make to run railroad instead of po-
litical machine, the people of this State
would not have been forced to take steps
to control railroad machinery. The pro-
visions Of the proposed railroad law may
not be thoroughly understood In some
editorial rooms, but have confidence to
believe that the general average of intel
llgence In the State OF Kansas Is sufEi-
GENTLY superior to that Of an editor who
writes under the orders Of subsidized
counting room that draws It's inspiration
from its bank account, to enable the peO-
pie Of this State to continue to maintain
the declaration they made in 1896, that
when It comes to question Of whether
the railroads shall run the State or the

Chicago, February 14.-A novel sug-
gestiOn as to the possibility Of obtain
ing "a national basis of compromise be-
tween the advocates of the gold stand
ard and their opponents Is being ad-
vanced by Mr.. w. S. Harbert, OF this
city. The plan is for circulating me-
dunn consisting of coin certificates pay
able half in gold and half in silver
a 81 certificate, for example, to be re-
deemed by 81 in gold coin and 81 in sill
yer coin. If the relative value Of one
metal should diminish, the value of the
other, according to Mr.. Harbert, would
relatively increase and the value Of the
certificates payable in both metals
jointly would be substantially unaf-
fected, the height OF the fulcrum of the
scales not being disturbed by the rails
ing of one arm and the lowering Of the

Dun,s Review Of Last Weeks Trade.

New York, February 12.-R. G. Dun
& Co.'S weekly review of trade says In
its issue Of to-day:
Business is pushing toward spring ac-
tivity rather early. Events which have
controlled are good buying Of iron by
the largest makers, the rise in cotton
with strength In goods, the great raAl-
way consolidation and the Cuban inBur-
rection. The latter, with Its posGibili-
ties, operates as brake on speculation,
and foollshness of local traders gave
foreigners a much-desired opportunity
to buy stocks on balance, about $4,000
shares. January earnings, S,0l7,417 al
ready reported, are 1876 per cent. better
than last year and 9.5 per cent. better
than In 1892, showing the best month
In six years at least, and February re-
turns thus far are promising.
