the ceremony, which was that of the ring
the regular Episcopal ceremony, was the
most beautiful and impressive ever wit
messed in Kingman.
The bride was given away by her father,
Mr.. William S. Grosvenor. She was
gowned in cream silk organdie over cream
satin, with veil and train. and looked
very pretty and happy. The groom, a
handsome young man, wore the conven-
tional black. Miss Lucretia S. Grosvenor,
sister of the bride, acted as bridesmaid
and wore a handsome dress of blue silk
organdie and carried a boquet OF brides
roses, and looked even as beautiful as the
bride herself. Mr. Charles Barron, brother
of the COON, was best man. Mr.. Charles
Alton of Kinsman and Mr.. Z. r. Geffs
Of Denver We're the ushers.
At the conclusion OF the ceremony the
bridal party marched out to the strains Of
the Mendelssohn wedding march and were
driven to the home Of the brides parents.
Mr.. and Mrs. w. 8. Grosvenor. where a
H.
where q large and fashionable crowd of
invited guests extended their heartiest
wishes for the future happiness and vel
fare Of the newly welded ones. Hundreds
of handsome and costly presents were re-
ceived.
The bride IS one Of the best known. as
well as one Of the most beautiful and tai
ented young ladies Of southwestern Kan
ess. The groom Is a prominent young
business man of Kingman. He was ad-
mitted to the bar here about two years

It was expected that the newly welded
couple would take the o'clock Rutcbin-
son and southern train for Kansas CITY.
consequently d large crowd assembled at
the depot to give them a send off" but
they drove To Warner. eight miles out. 20
take the train there. The train was about
forty minutes late, and in the meantime
the crowd found out whore they had gone
so about twenty-five young people got on
the train at Kinsm2n. and when the bridal
couple boarded the train at Warner they
were met by perfect shower Of rice. old

Washable Textures
for Summer

The artistic designing, effective coloring
and novelty weaving which finds expires
sion in the exquisite Wash Fabrics, as
seen in our irimitable assortments, do not
lack for appreciation at the hands Of fash
ionable folk. The demand for these tex
lures was never so persistently aggressi re
as we find it now, and it is most gratifying
TO be able to fully satisfy such demands.
1t is well to remember, however, that the
women who will wear the daintiest and
most exclusive things are the ones who
are forehanded in choosing now while the
variety is almost Iimitless. We mention
only a few of the variety at random, as a
sort of price guide.

NEW CURE FOR FITS
Medford, 0. T., Man Writes
to Sheriff Simmons
FOR A HANGMAN'S ROPE
Which, Tied About the Body,
viii Work Wonders.

Sheriff Simmons has received the fol-
lowing letter from man at Medford,
Oklahoma:
$3.50.
Sir-Thare is two parties here that has
fits now that halve bin made to believe
that a peace of rope that some one has
bin hung with, tide a round thare person,
vii cure fits. now as thare has bin Grim
nels from the territory hung thare I ask
if u can furnish such rope, if SO I vii pa
all charges on getting it here or can u
give me any Ide WHARF such rope can be
obtained. please answer this an Oblige
Medford, o. T.
AS hangmen's ropes are rather scarce
in Kansas, it is likely that the ftif1ed
Medford people viii have to go without
a remedy. Sheriff Simmons cannot find
enough rope in the hangman's quarter of
the Sedgwick county Jail to reach around
the body of a person. There were two
hangings in the present jail several years
ago, and way up in the furthermost
heights of the Jail is the beam from which
the bodies swung. All the rope that IS
left there is the knots that were tied to
the beam, and the sheriff will not part
with these mementoes Of criminal JUS
tice for love nor money. The two men
who were hung came from the territory
when things we're wild and Woolly down
there They were United States prisoners
and were executed by United States Off
Gals, the Sedgwick county officials hav-
ing nothing to do with the execution.
Since those days the jail has held some OF
as bad criminals as ever swung into eter-
nifty at the end of a rope, but none have
been executed, owing to the precedent set
by Kansas governors, which precedent
will likely never be changed. For a long
time after the hanging in the jail here,
prisoners made a great deal of pin money
by buying rope and selling it to visitors
to the jail who wanted souvenirs Of the
tragedy, but it is said none Of the fden-
teal rope with which the prisoners were
hung was ever sold in this manner.
The unfortunate Medford people will be
compelled to wait for their chosen remedy
until someone catches a horsethief, when
there will doubtless be plenty of rope to
cure all of the fitted people in Oklahoma
and Kansas combined.

OLD NATATORIUM
Set on Fire Last Night by an Oil
IanD

There was a fire alarm turned in about
o'clock last evening from the old Nata-
forum, now used as a warehouse by the
wallace Implement company. There was
dance going on in the hall above and a
coal oil lamp exploded, which started an
incipient panic, and the two hose COM
panies were summoned and were soon on
on the spot. There was no stream turned
on as it was not necessary, as the lamp
was promptly hurled out of window.
The damage done was slight.

VISIT CALIFORNIA.
1t Is Mighty Wonderland-A Grand
Natural Park and Playground.

California is a region of wonders.
From the time one enters the state
until he leaves it he will find some
thing to marvel at, something to learn,
something to enjoy.
The flora presents a field of mex
haustible interest, from the mammoth
sequoias, eighty feet in circumference
and 400 feet high, down to the beauti-
full rose-throated eunanas.
The field of minerals is likewise rich
and of wondrous extent. Its mining
industry has been prominent before
the world for half a century.
On the sea beach all forms of ocean
life may be studied; beautiful and del
icate algae, and shells in infinite
variety, priced for both beauty and
worth, are to be had for the gathering
1t is the sightseer's paradise. What
country on earth can surpass the
scenic splendors of Yosemite, the big
trees, lake Tahoe. Mt. Shasta, the
geysers, Mt. Hamilton, Mt. Lowe These
are only the more famous features, but
there are hundreds more of less note
almost as interesting, all of which can
be visited comfortably, and the exper-
fence is worth the cost many times
over.
Six months or year spent in Cali
fornia sightseeing will give more
health, more enjoyment. and bring one
nearer the great heart of nature than
the same amount of time spent in any
other part of the world.
A variety of California literature, at
tractively illustrated, describing its re-
sources, famous resorts and numerous
wonders, also maps and folders show
