No More Dollar Marriages.

There is new labor union in Kan
sas City, Mo. The judges of the Coun~
ty court have combined and have
agreed to raise the price at which mar
riage ceren cnies have been perform
ed. For some time there has been a
strong competition between the vari-
GUS judges, and rates have been cut to
a ruinious extent The law does not
specify what fee judge should charge,
and as result prices have varied.
Judge Henry is responsible for the
a couple of negroes who wished to be
married and who were not we'll sup
piled with funds. The groom pro-
duced dollar, which he declared was
sufficient. Judge Henry declared 9TH
erwise and refused to tie the nuptial
knot until the groom produced at least
81. His stand has been Endorsed by
the other judges, and in future mar
riages when performed by the judges,
will cost at least So. If the contract
ing parties are white the price will be
81 more Judge Henry declared that
a man who could not afford to pay 81
for being married could not afford to
marry at all.
The colored population Of Kansas
City is quite large, and they marry
when they have chance, regardless
of their financial condition. Many OF
them prefer the civil ceremony be-
cause it is less trouble and less ex-
pensive than church wedding They
have been accustomed to being mar
ried by an obliging judge, who would
accept whatever they had to offer.

Open Lodge Session Held Saturday Night by
the Langdon Lodg3.
The open Session Of the Langdon A. O.
wv. lodge held by the order in this
city on Thursday of last week at the
K. of P. hall was an event in the circle
of fraternal bodies that packed the house
so that standing room was at a premium.
Hon. j. B. Boyd, past master Work
mar, opened the exercises of the evening
IN an address which gave important sta
ii tics and urged the great necessity Of
young mon, and especially those married,
losing no time in identifying themselves
with the order. His address was gener-
ousiy app:auded. Next followed the
opening ode, in which, Miss Janet
Watson, furnished The instrumental
music followed by the opening ad lress
of Grand Master Workman Stork, in
which the statement was made that 1872
members had been added to the North
Dakota Jurisdiction during tue past
month. Thirty years ago the order was
instituted and from the thirteen lodges
started in that year it has sprung to the
front until today it is recognized as the
foremost order of the laboring men.
The male qnartette, composed of Attor-
ney Richardson, A. c. McNiven and the
Salters next gave a selection in which a
whistling chorus proved an attractive
feature. Co. Treasurer Robertson's
recitation ''The Jiner" telling of the man
wLo joined too many lodges until his
wife had 10 ask for divorce, was good
one. Judge Dorval followed with
tenor solo accompanied on the organ by
his daughter Miss Alberta and received

PARIS, Oct. 1O.-The United States
peace commissioners began their usual
three hours session at 10 o'clock a. m.
They are understood to have taken
into consideration direct suggestions
and counter propositions from the
Spanish, of which the Americans now
have enough to engage their attention
at the daily sessions. 1t may be re.
garded as quite likely that the Span.
iards have already outlined their ap-
parent expectations and that they are
beyond the line of posi- Die acquiescence
by the Americans. The latter are now
acting along well considered lines. con.
sistently and with a definite end in
view. Taey have to some degree dis
closed Americal expectation and deter.
mination. The Spaniards, however,
seem unable or unwilling to under.
stand or believe the Americans may
or have at the outset set forth their
requirements, and that they are des.
tined to remain virtually unchanged
by finesse or counter diplomacy. There
fore it is not unlikely that the Ameri-
cans, following the course of fair,
thorough consideration of all the orig
inal counter propositions, will, to the
limit of fruitful possibility, accord pa
tient consideration OF aught projected
by the Spaniards. Thus, 1t is fair to
conclude, that the Americans daily
sessions during the recess intervals
will be fully engrossed. While the
Philippines have not yet been reached
in the deliberations, this question is
doubtless relatively not tar Instant, and
at that point is likely to come to the
full stress of diplomatic con troversy.
Referring to the Philippine phase of
the negotiations, The Gaulois says:

touched upon, though not discussed

The united strength of the two COM

of Colonel Barr, acting commander of

are ordered to the frontier it will be
because a large body OF soldiers is
needed to round up the belligerent In

Lake territory, with as little oloodshed
