A new enterprise has sprung up

A new enterprise has sprung up
in Tahlequah. Some time ago
Mr.. Barton, manager of the Ma
tional hotel, conceived the idea
that he might be able to dispose
of some mistletoe. A drummer
chanced to come through about
the time Mr.. Barton had perfected
his plans. The travelling man told
of several firms in Kansas City who
sold large quantities of mistletoe
for decorating purposes. Barton
began to correspond with them
and now he has sold during the
past month nearly thousand
pounds at 20 cents per pound
Arrow.

Tahlequah has for nearly three
quarters Of century been the
seat of Cherokee legislation, the
capital OF the nation, and the home
of the oft-looted treasury OF the
tribe. 1t has long been famous as
the rendezvous of the wilyest,
smoothest, smartest set of Indians
on the American continent. At Tab.
lsquah again are now asse embled
the mentors of the Cherokees, to
undertake the biggest and the
most dangerous task attempted
since the assassination of the
Ridges more than fifty years ago.
All eyes are again turned to Tab
lequah and the seven Cherokees
who are making the last treaty
that will ever be made with the
Cherokee nation. There is some.
thing wonderfully pathetic in the
irony of fate that surrounds these
men, who have consented to act as
pall-bearers at the obsequies of
their country.

COST OF LIVING.

The cost of living enters largely into
the matrimonial problem A young
gentleman OF Marietta tells Us that on
enquiry of heads Of half dozen families
with comparatively limited incomes he
was informed that it cost them one
hundred dollars each per month living
expenses This being true, it denotes
one fact: that the American people are
not living rs economically as their fore
fathers, but in the rush of this progress
sive age of many artificial wants, with
everything comparatively cheap, the
cost of raising families is on the in
crease. In the ordinary run Of affairs
it takes a good business to spare one
hundred dollars per month for living
expenses and still have ample capital
to keep that business going. So few
make that sum clear of all expenses
that it is a mystery how appearances
are kept up

GOLDEN WEDDING.

Last Monday, August 10Th. was the
hftieth anniversary of the wedding of
Doctor and Mrs b. X. Strong, of our
city. Quite unknown to this excellent
pair, their friends for several days past
had been busily preparing to celebrate
In an appropriate manner this au-
spicious event, so when in the after
noon of this date, refreshments began
to arrive in great profusion with COM
pllments of the senders, the couple
were much surprised, until the import
was learned
In the evening about fifty of the
friends of the family assembled at the
residence, which was handsomely IL
Eliminated and otherwise decorated, to
offer their congratulations upon the
arrival of the twain at the tiftieth mile
stone of connubial life, and to present
in more substantial manner, testi-
monialS of their esteem. The Doctor
and his most estimable wife received
with great atfability and appreciation
the we'll wishes of the guests, and after
some time spent in social intercourse
refreshments were announced, which
were as delightful in quality as they
were abundant in quantity.
At the conclusion, Rev. G. 7. A.
Pise, who is the pastor of Doctor and
Mrs Strong, in few appropriate
words, expressing the wish among
other things that their latter days NAV
prove golden like the anniversary then
being celebrated, presented each with
a morocco purse in which were fifty
dollars of the yellow metal, the gift of
admiring friends.
More than half of the half century of
married life of this most worthy couple
has been spent in Marietta, and in that
time, by their christian life and other
excellent qualities. they and theirs
have become greatly endeared to our
people, and we believe that there is
not one with whom they are acquaint-
ed, who does not join sincerely in Mr..
Pisces eloquent wish for their future
happiness.
Not only was the 29th of August the
anniversary of Dr. Strong's tiftieth
wedding day, but his birthday as we'll,
he having been born August 10Th. 1924,
and married August 29th, 1915
No invitations were issued for this
occasion, DR.. and Mrs Strong, as be-
fore stated, being unaware that such a
thing was in contemplation.

SECRETLY Welded.

A secret marriage took place in At
lanta August oath, the news of which
will be received with surprise by the
friends of the contracting parties, not
only in this city, but in other parts of
the state. The groom was Mr. E. =.
Jersey, young man we'll known in this
city, and who has been quite promi-
nent figure in the youngest social set.
He is the son of Mr. e. T, Jervey, the
we'll known travelling man. The bride
was Miss Amira B. McCrea, a popular
and attractive young lady of Marietta.
Miss McCrea belongs to prominent
and wealthy family.
The wedding ceremony was perform
ed by the Rev. DR.. G. F. Williamson,
and the utmost caution was used to
prevent the affair from becoming pub
lie After the sacred knot had been
tied, Mrs Jervey took the train for her
mothers home in Marietta. without
the least intention of acquainting any
one with her momentous secret. De-
spite the extreme care of all who knew
about the union of the young people,
the news leaked out The reason for
the desire for secrecy is said to have
been the objection of the brides moth
er to the marriage, which objection
was based on the yoath of the young
couple Atlanta Journal, August 25th,
1895
The happy couple we learn admit
their marriage, and are now basking in
the sunshine of forgiveness by the
brides mother. The Journal extends
its cordial congratulations
