Be Shut Down.
It Is the belief Of c. e. Finney that the
smelling works at Kansas City viii not be
discontinued on account Of the consolida-
ton. Many Of tho officers and employees of
the plant here have been alarmed over the
probability of such discontinuance as that
would mean the loss Of their positions.
',Of the nineteen plants In the combina-
tion." said Mr.. Finney last night. this one
at Kansas City is the most efficient and
best equipped. For that reason l consider
1t extremely improbable that this plant win
be closed down. Before any decision can
be reached the new management will have
to get together and size up the various
management Of the nineteen plants: II
be done, and possibly longer. II may BE-
that none Of the plants will be discontin-

Thaelleray,s rendernesx.

The following letter was written in
1888 by Thackeray to his wife. Surely
a more tender message, more truly in
stinct with love and religion, was never
framedl
Here have we been two years mar
ried and not single unhappy day. Oh,
l do bless God for all this happiness
which he has given mel 1t is so great
that / almost tremble for the future.
except that 1 humbly hope-for what
man is certain about his own weakness
and wickedness2 Our love is strong
enough to withstand any pressure from
without. and, as it is a gift greater
than any fortune, is likewise one supe-
rior to poverty or sickness or any other
worldly evil with which Providence
may visit us. Let us pray, as 1 trust
there is no harm, that none of these
may come upon us, as the best and
wisest in the world prayed that he
might not be led into temptation.
II think happiness is as good as
prayers, and feel in my heart kind
of oyerfowing thanksgiving which is
quite too great to describe in writing
This kind of happiness is like fine
picture-you only see little bit of it
when you are near the canvas. Go lit
tie distance and then you see how beau
tiful it is.
Il don't know that shall have done
much by coming away, except by being
go awfully glad to get back. "

"But there was one wedding last week
which am sure will be the happiest mar,

This WAS the wedding of Miss Caroline
King, daughter of Mr.. and AIRS. Chsrles
King, of Kirkwo0d, To Mr.. Arthur b. Am.
bier Both of the young people come of
the best stock, and have known and cared
for each other for many years. The GER
emony was performed Thursday evening
in the Kirkwond Presbyterian Church by
Rev. H. G. Evans. Miss Cathariue King,
sister of the bride, was maid of honor,
with Misses Lucy King, Carroll King
aud Sarah Abrams as bridesmaids Mr..
f. w. Ambler of Sewanee, Tenn, was
best man with Messrs. Henry Stribling,
Richard Willis of Galesburg, Ill, Tom
Willis of Chicago, Edward King, and
Fred Murtfeldt as groomsmen. Little
Misses Christine Graham and Sarah
Brown acted as flower girls. The wed

Mr.. SIrib!ing is grandson Of Chief JUS
-tice John Marshall. of Virginia The
groom, Mr.. Arthur Amber, comes of one
Of the oldest and most Rristocra,ic fami-
lies of Virginia The first Amber who
emigrated from England to this country
was Richard, son of John amber and
Elizabeth Burkadike, of the city of York,
who located in ZIG in the town of Little
York, Va, which was then the place Of
greatest commercial Importance in the
colony of Virginia Some years after
the arriv"l of Richard in @his country,
he hepRme acquainted with the family of
Edward J&cquslin, "t jamestown. This
gentleman, who was the son of Jean
JncqueIin and Elizabeth Craddock of the
County OF Kent. of England, had emigra-

ried for his second wife lin 1867 Martha
daughter of William Cary, gentleman, of
Warwick county, Va. Iu 1923 their eId.

Richard Amber were married and from
their union srrang all the Amblera now
living in Virginia. The JacqueItns are
descendants from the same stock which
gave rise to the noble family of La Roche

silverware Recovered.

About eight years ago there were several
robberies of more or less importance com
mitted in and around Roanoke Safes were
blown open and residences burglarized and
in such way as to lead to the belief that
an organized gang was at the bottom of the
depredations. Among other houses entered
and looted was that of Rev. j. w. Lynch at
st. Andrews Catholic Church, there being
taken two large silver ladies and twenty ta-
bic size silver spoons. Some time afterwards
several burglars were arrested in Washing,
ton and sent to the penitentiary One of
them befnre going told n fellow prisoner of
his experiences in Roanoke and that the
silver taken from Father Lynch's house was
buried near an elm tree on the bank OF the
river near Basic City, Va. The prison, r
wrote the information to Roanoke and Off
Ger Griffin was detailed to look into the mat
ter. lie went to Basic City, but could find
no trace of the hidden silver and the matter
dropped. Several months ago however. n
coiored man named Beverly Johnson while
digging ditch came upon the spoons and
took them to his house. The news of the
tnd hnally reached Roanoke and officer
Merrlmhn went up to Basic to identify the
spoons This was done easily and yesterday
the ofhcer returned bringing with him the
siiverware stolen from Father Lynch eight
years ago. The spoons and ladle are hand.

AntIdotc Against Shines.

According to DR. Friedlander of
Wiesbaden. electricity is an antidote
against stirgs of insects. His plan in
such cases is to apply constant cur
rent and to place a negative cathode on
the spot stung by the insect Galvani-
zation produces a rather strong sensa-
tion of burning. but at the same time
the pain from the sting disappears, and
if the electricity is applied very soon
after the wound has been inflicted there
is little or no swelling The current,
however. does excellent service even if
it be not applied until after some time
has elapsed, for it removes the pain and
also quickly reduces the swelling. The
supposition is that the poison which
the insect has injected through the skin
is neutralized and rendered innocuous
by the current.
DIR. Friedlander has repeatedly made
experiments of this kind on persons
who have been stung by bees and wasps
and has invariably found them success
full. He naturally believes that SIM
liar result would be obtained in the
cases of persons stung by other insects.
