MARRIAGE

To woman marriage Is at once
the happlest and saddest event OF
her life. So says a thoughtful
writer 1t Is the promise of future
bliss, built on the death of al'
present enjoyment She quits her
home, her parents, her companions
everything on which she has
hitherto depended for comfort, for
affection, for kindness, for pleas
ure, The parents by whose advice
she has been guided, the sister to
whom she has dared impart every
embryo thought and feeling, the
brother who has played with her,
by turns the counselor Of the
younger children TO whom she has
been the mother and the playmate
all are to be forgotten at one
iell stroke.
Every tie is looseued, the spring
of every hope and action is changed
and yet she flies with JOY into the
untrodden paths before her
Buoyed up by the confidence of re-
quilted love, she bids a fond and
graceful adieu to the life that is
past, aud turn with excited hopes
aud joyous anticipations Of the
happiness to come Woe to the
man who can blight such fair hopes
who would destroy the confidence
which love has inspired.-Chicago

MARTIAL LAW
Has Been Declared i'm Tuscany
by the Italian Government.

Rome, May 1.-THE general situation
here is regarded as being distinctly
grave. 1t now seems to be clearly dem
onstrated that politics are mixed up in
the disturbances which have occurred
in various parts of the kingdom, ow-
ing to the high price of bread, and the
clerical party is believed to be foment-
ing the disorder.
A royal decree issued today, pro-
claimed martial law throughout Tus-
cany, one of the most fertile and best
cultivated parts of Italy. There was
a renewal of serious rioting at the cap
ital of Tuscany last night and there
were further disturbances at Leghorn,
capital of the province of that name,
situated on the Mediterranean. about so
miles from Florence. At both places a
number of rioters were killed and in
jured by the troops detailed to retain
order.

Kansas Dairy Interests to Be Well
Represented at Omaha.

The Kansas Omaha commission has
secured 200 square feet of space in the
dairy building at the Transmississippi
Exposition in addition to the space al
ready secured in the other buildings,
and Kansas important dairying inter-
ests will be given a first class repreSen-
tation. The arrangement of this exhibit
has been left entirely with the Kansas
Dairy association, and Mr.. f. s. Hurd
of Meriden, secretary of the organiza-
ton, will at once take steps to have
material for the exhibit prepared.
Work on the Kansas headquarters
building is now under way at Omaha,
and next Monday a force of seven
young ladies will take possession of
one of the rooms of the Veale block on
Quincy street and start the work of
decorating panels, stands, pillars, etc,
and arranging displays of different ma
terials. All exhibits will be arranged
here and afterward shipped to Omaha
ready to place in the various buildings
on arrival there. Material for agrfcul-
tural and mineral displays is already
coming in.
Members of the commission have been
out over the state for the past ten days
looking after the apportionment sub
scriptions from the different counties,
and Secretary Greet states that $4,000
will be collected from different counties
within the next few days. The county
subscriptions now in the hands OF the
treasurer amount to about $4,000.

a FAMILY DIFFERENCE.
As to Whether Young Perry Shall
Enter the Army or Not.

When the Independence company left
home Captain D. S. Elliott was ap-
preached by an elderly lady and a
young lady who both asked him to look
after T. p Perry. They were the young
mans mother and sister.
Take good care of brother, Captain, -
said the young lady. I'VE hate to see
him go, but if he must we are proud
Captain Elliott assured them that he
would keep an eye on the boy and see
that he was well cared for.
When the officer arrived in Topeka he
received letter from Coffeyville which
greatly surprised him. 1t was from T.
p. Ferry's father. In it he stated that
the boy was not of age and that he OBJ
Jected seriously to his going to war.
Captain Elliott conferred with Cover
nor Leedy about it yesterday. The
governor said: Wait a day or two and
maybe the father will relent 1 remem-
Der when 1 went up to enlist years ago
my mother stepped in and said: Off
old 1 blubbered a little and went
home unless you have to, for it would
break his heart"
Perry is a bright young man, 10 years
of age and a fine physical specimen.
The letter was written by the father
several hours before the company left
Independence. Three thousand people
gathered at the depot to give the part
ing gOdSpeed to the boys, and young
Perry's mother and sister were among
the most enthusiastic of those at the
depot.

CAME OVER ON THE PARIS.
Mrs William Pierce, Visiting in To-
peka, Relates an Exciting
Ocean VOYAGE.

Mrs. VIM. Pierce of Colorado Springs.
who is now visiting her sister, Mrs A.
j: Eyer on East Third street in this
city, came to this country from South
ampton, Eng, on the American liner
city of Paris" arriving in New York
last Saturday morning. Mrs. Pierce
says that there was little excitement
on board during the voyage, and that
the passengers were not as badly fright
ened as it was generally supposed
"I don't think the people on the ship
lost as much sleep over the possibility
of being caught by the Spaniards as the
people on shore" said she today.
When we left Southampton we knew
that the ship had been purchased by the
government and that an attempt would
be made by the Spaniards to capture it,
but the majority of the people had con-
fdence in the ability of the Paris to
run away from anything the SpaniardS
could send after us, and there was but
very little excitement. What excite
ment there was on board was confined
to the steerage. There good deal of
praying went on, and a remark that the
captain had sighted a big vessel coming
in our direction was enough to set
some of the women passengers to cry
ing and Wailing But all such reports
were false, for. shortly before reaching
New York, the captain stated that he
had not sighted any kind of vessel on
the way over. 1 suppose had we seen
any vessels, there would have been
much more excitement.
while there was no lack of conf
dence on the part of the officers to be
able to run away from the Spaniards,
every precaution was taken, and at
night all lights visible from the exterior
of the ship were put out as soon as it
became dark. The officers were ex-
tremely kind, and L think it was due
largely to their efforts that there was
no more anxiety among the passengers.
They were always ready to listen to
the tirnid and explain just why the
Paris could outsail anything that was
af1oat in the shape of a Spanish war
vessel.
I'VE were given the grandest ovation
I ever witnessed when we arrived at
New York, and it led me to believe that
the people in this country suffered much
more mental agony than we did,
Mrs Pierce will return to her home in
Colorado Springs in a few days. She
went to England to visit relatives last
summer, crossing the Atlantic then on
the City of Paris.''

The order was given because to fly

States and especially on the cooking
tent was a violation of camp rules and

A DOLLAR FOR A CHEER.
What Makes the People of Topeka so
UuemotionalP

People who stand on the sidewalks
and watch the volunteers pass are
sometimes slow to make AZ demonstra-
ton of any kind and this prompted an
old veteran who was marching with the
G. A. r., in escorting the volunteers to
Camp Leedy Friday afternoon to rush
into a crowd and exclaim, as he held a
handful of dollars up in full view:
"a dollar apiece for cheers; that's
what we have to give to get EN-
The crowd stared in surprise at the
outburst but still not man offered to
cheer after that. The volunteers
passed Sixth street in view of a silent
crowd but at Eighth a cordial reception
was accorded them
