received and gave out an affidavit from
Maj. Gen. Ludlow, now military gov

forwarded in lieu of personally appear

principally in answer to the statements

Gen. Ludlow Incorporates in his
statement report of rather warm

the army headquarters in Washington
of the return from Montauk. in which
Gen. Miles had said that Gen Ludlow S

engineering was very bad"
Gen. Ludlow says that he refuted
this statement at the time. pointing out
that he had done all the engineering
work that the time and circumstances
permitted. that the Santiago expedi

THE PRAIRIE GIRLS WEDDING;
She Seldom Takes q Trip, But Goes Di.
rect to Her New Home.

"As the prairie girl has grown up

lines, so she asks only of her lover

writes Charles Moreau Harger, OF
"a Girls Life on the Prairie, I'm the
May Ladies' Home Journal. "Thou-
sands of acres of land do not make a
fortune, and social degrees are prac-
tically unknown. The wedding is
nearly always at the BRIDES home.
Not once in three score times Is 1t at
the church. The near relatives and
few dear friends are the guests.
The brides white wedding gown Is
simply made. Bunches of golden
rod or roses deck the little parlor or
sitting room, and from the organ
comes the wedding march. Seldom
does a groomsman or a brides at
tendant take part in the ceremony,
and more seldom Is there a reception
afterwards. Fortunate indeed are
the bride and groom if they can es-
cape vociferous serenade, for the
charirori and he bombardmenl OF

usually add to the story of the mar
riage: CATER the wedding supper

drove to their own home, which had

Charming Lady Dead.

Frequently of late has our city
been called to mourn the death of
our most valued citizens.
The death of no one could cause
more sincere sorrow than that of
Mrs. Elizabeth S. Taylor, widow of
the late Edmund III. Taylor, ST., and
mother of Mrs. S. E. James and
Messrs. p. Fall and E. Haines Taylor
aged about 70 years.
Mrs. Taylor had gone to Atlanta,
Ga, to visit her son, Mr.. E. Haines
Taylor, when she was taken with
the sickness that proved fatal on
Thursday last.
She was model Christian woman
and one Of the most polished and
agreeable ladies in the social and
every day walks of life that it has
ever been our privilege to know.
She was the daughter of the late
hOnOred and beloved Rev. Philip S.
Fall, and had lived the greater part
of her loving and useful life i'm this
city.
Many years ago she became the
wife of Col. E. II. Taylor, ST., and
/ made one of the most devoted and
exemplary of wives and mothers.
Since the death of her husband she
had made her home with her daugh-
ter, Mrs. S. E. James, until recently.
A life of humble and devoted piety.
a living exemplification of the truth
and beauty of the religion of our
Lord and Savior, has closed ON earth.
but its influence for good will long
remain, as delightful perfume, to
; brighten and bless this community.
1t rests like benediction upon her
children.
The funeral will take place this
morning on the arrival of the Frank
fort d Cincinnati train at 1880, from
the cemetery chapel. Rev. George
Darsie, assisted by Rev. Il. n. Arnold,
will conduct the services.

1t has been discovered. so it is said,
that the summer drink known as
"coca-cola" has, to large extent,
the deadly drug in its composition
from which cocaine is made, and
that any one who uses this drink for
any length of time, becomes victim
Of the cocaine habit, and soon resorts
to that drug plain and simple.
We call attention to this matter
now, that proper investigation may
be made. If it be fact, as it above
given, it should be discarded at once.
