coURTING DOM PAUL's NIEcEs.
An "Up.Settine" From Dusk to Dawn Pro-
claims The Engagement.

The Boer girl of the country districts
of the South African Republic "is able
to go to town only once or twice q
year, and then it is to attend the
Nachtmaal, or communion, which IS
the chief festival of those deeply re-
ligious people," writes Howard G. Hill
legas, of "The Boer Girl of South Af-
rica," in the January Ladies' Home
Journal. "The journey to the town is
made in oX-teams. and may require Il
weeks or a months time, but it is al
ways an epoch in II Boer girls life,
especially if she is about sixteen, when
she is supposed to have attained the
matrimonial age. Then some tall, ro-
bust Boer youth, whom she has met at
former Nachtmaals, may summon
enough courage to ask her whether he
may call at her home and have an
'up-setting,' which is sort of an ultima
tum before an ultimatum. If she con-
sents the young Boer will shortly
afterwards ride on horseback many
miles across the plain to the girls
home, and will prove that he is worthy
of her loYe by 'sitting-up' and talking
with her from sundown until break of
day. For two young Beers to arrive at
this period of courtship is equivalent
to announcing the engagement, and
then the prospective bride begins pre-
paration for the wedding"

a GREAT SYSTEM.
lntimated That 1t Will Take In the Ann
Arbor and Hooking Valley Roads.-Con-
solidatlon Nearly Completed.

Saginaw, Mich, Dec 13.-The resi-
dent officials of the Pere Marquette
railroad have returned from Boston,
where meeting of the stockholders
was held, and at which eight of the
permanent directors were chosen.
They are Charles NJ Head, Grand
Rapids; Chas. Merriam, Boston; Mark
II. Cox, New York; Thos. f. Ryan,
New York; oliver W. Mink, Boston,
and William w. Crapo of New Bedford.
The consummation of the cOnsolida-
tion of the Flint Il Pere Marquette
railroad with the Detroit, Grand Rap
ids IL Western and the Chicago 81 West
Michigan railways swings into exist
ence one of the best pieces of railroad
property in this section of the country,
and the Pere Marquette road easily
becomes the leading system of the
state. 1t is persiStently intimated that
its scope will embrace the Ann Arbor
and the Columbus, Hooking Valley Il
Toledo road before another year rolls
around. But little now remains to
perfect the consolidation. The bond
holders OF the respective roads repre-
sented in the Pere Marquette company
having already affirmed the appoint
ment of eight of the eleven directors
who will control the new system, and
when the directorate is completed all
that remains is TO elect the official force.
Just who will comprise the official staff
is a question that is being discussed
with much interest here. Now that G..
Nj. Head has been chosen as president
those who claim TO be on the inside are
sizing the situation up about as fol-
lows: Vice president and general man
ager, ). T. Grape; secretary and treas
urer, III. G. Potter, jr., with possibly
Arthur Patriarche for traffic manager.
1t is believed that the Office of general
passenger agent will be contested be-
tween Herman r. Moeller. present in
cumbent for the Flint 81 Pere Mar
quette Co., and George De Haven, who
holds that Office with the Detroit, Grand
Rapids Il Western and Chicago II West
Michigan roads.
1t is intimated by high-up official
Of the old company that the general
offices of the new company would be
located at Detroit. The shops, it is
said, will be kept at this place and will
be enlarged to double their present
capacity.

Christmas at the Churches.

Instead of the usual Christmas tree
and gifts, two of the churches this year
decided to give their Sunday school a
treat in the way of supper. Friday
evening before Christmas was selected
by both the NJ. E. and Presbyterian
churches and no trouble was spared in
giving all connected with the schools
and churches a bountiful spread at
Central hall and NJ. f. church. On
Saturday evening at the Disciple church
a booth was filled with presents for old
and young and many hearts were
made happy. a fine program had been
prepared and was executed before a
large audience. At the NJ. u. church
the children made merry over the sight
of a large battle ship laden with in
Vulnerable gifts. Exercises, consisting
of tableauX, music, recitations, etc,
were also given here which were very
interesting. At the Brick Chapel a
goodly number was present to partici-
pate in the festivities. Music, recita
tions and drills were listened to with
much pleasure. a graphaphone own
ed by George Cavanagh added much to
the zest of the evening. Last but not
least the Christmas tree loaded down
with all the children could desire, was
stripped by Santa Claus and his agents,
and all went home happy. On Sunday
evening at the NJ. E. church Christ
mas program was given, consisting Of
appropriate exercises, music, etc, q
large number being present. On Mon
day evening Christmas jubilee was
held in the f. NJ. church which was
we'll attended.
