Two Souls: One Thought.

The reporter spied them as they
alighted from the buggy about
o'clock and walked into the probate
judges Office She took seat in EN- =
barrased silence and he talked in low
tones to the Judge. Then he reached
into his pocket, drew forth green
back. The Judge took it. They stood
up. He took his hat of. They clasp
ed hands. The Judge folded his hand
on his bosom so that people standing
behind him could see them.
The Judge spoke. THE institution
of marriage Is sacred etc" DO you
take her, etc? Do you take him, etc?
BY the authority vested in me, etc. :"
Allow me to congratulate you. Come
around again"
Then they walked outside and Mr..
Thos e. Hoddy, and Miss Mamie O..
Mitchell, were Mr.. and Mrs. Thos. f..

Business College Onens.

The lola Business College, con
Quoted by Fesler Brothers, opened its
doors Tuesday for the second term.
The attendance on the first day was
twenty members, which is a most fiat
tering promise of the growth of the
school. Last year there were just
eight pupils enrolled on the opening
day, but before the Term was over
there were close to thirty in attend
ance Mr.. Fesler says he has letters
from ten more students who expect to
register within a few days, so the
school will start Oft with thirty en-
rolled
The gentlemen in charge have had
long experience in the business and
their first years work has proven
highly satisfactory to their pupils.
The courses in stenography, type
writing and bookkeeping have all
been well patronized and several of
the graduates are now holding excel
lent positions here and elsewhere.
This year Mr.. Will Anderson, expert
penman, has been added to the corps
of instructors and this branch of a
business training will receive more
attention.
There is no reason why the lola
Business College should not continue
to grow until it numbers hundreds of
students and occupies a home of its
own. The cost of living here is much
lower than in larger cities and the in
struction is excellent.

The NeanderthaI skeleton.

The famous Neanderthal skeleton waI
discovered in 1857 in cave in the valley
of a small stream near Dusseldorf on the
same level with bones OF the extinct cave
bear. The workmen who excavated 1t,
not knowing Its value only saved the
larger bones and the cap of the skull. The
frontal prominences are enormous, pro
ducing great overhanging supraorbital
ridge, entirely unlike anything ordinarily
seen In the skulls of today and reminding
one strikingly of the skulls of the highoi
apes 1t was declared by Huxley to be
by far the most apelike skull that had
hitherto been discovered. The remaining
bones Of the skeleton indicated man OF
unusually powerful frame
A very forcible attack was made upon
the normal character of this skeleton by
Virchow, who pointed out that there are
in it unmistakable signs of the rheumatic
affection known as thrills dcfornans and
that this not infrequcntly led, when Of a
worry marked type, to defornity Of the
skull similar to that shown In these 70.
mains. This statement, made by the
great authority of one of the foremost
pathological ANTAGONISTS Of the time, has
been sufficient to discredit the skull in the
eyes of many anthropologists.- Franz

Another Section Fired.

One year ago today ground was
broken south of town for the cement
plant, of which lola people had been
talking and specializing for year.
For several months past the first sec
ton of the plant containing seven
rotaries has been running and today
the second section of seven more
ro:aries was fired up and will operate
right along. This increases the out
put to about 1900 barrels a day. The
plant as it now stands, one of the
handsomest in the state, is running
two-thirds of its machinery. The
other third is yet to be started, but
will be finished soon, and then there
is another plant just like it ordered
to be built right away beside the one
now running.

German patents are especially valuable
because the search for previous publication
Is comparatively speaking, thorough.
The government takes no responsibility,
however, for the correctness of its exami.
nation. The claims are also reduced to
minimum of conciseness. The public is
invited to produce evidence Of priority or
otherwise attack the claims of the invent
ors, To this end the papers are publicly
exposed for six weeks after the patent office
has finished it's examination and before
the patent is definitely granted. Much
patent litigation Is probably thereby avoid

Snake in G. A. r. Hall.

For years the members of McCook
Post, G. A. r., have occupied the
second floor of one of the buildings in
the middle of the west block south of
the square as their meeting place. 1t
is as near the heart of town as any
other place and the last spot which one
would search if seeking a square meal
for Bosco or Esau. There was blue
racer found in the hall few days ago,
all the same. Erastus Hail. the jani-
tor, entered the room to light up and
prepare for a Post meeting and as he
approached the south end of the room
he was surprised to see a snake fully
five feet long, stretched at ease on the
carpet. 1t raised its head to see if
Rastus carried credentials permitting
his entrance and Mr.. Hall took a long
throw with his cane and luckily hit the
snake on the neck, severing its head
from its body. That the other veterans
might not think his story a trick of his
versatile imagination Mr.. Hall kept
the snake and showed it to others,
The back door of the room was open
and it seems probable that the snake
had climbed the stairs and entered the
room in that way.

THE FAIR PREMIUMS READY
Allen County Association Will Pay in
Full-Future Fair plans are
Still Uncertain.

Theldirectors of the fair association
are now ready to pay the preiums in
full to prize winners at the recent fair.
The money may be secured by calling
on G. II. Wheaton, secretary.
This years fair, like previous ones,
has been a decided success in every
way, aud had the weather permitted
would have surpassed all records in
point of attendance. The gentlemen
who own the grounds are uncertain as
to their future plans, but it seems
probable that the fair will be continu-
ed. The men who own the grounds
have not yet decided what they will do
but will do so before their annual
meeting in December. Mr.. Wheaton
retires from the secretaryship and he
has plan that he will suggest to these
gentlemen.
1t is that instead of letting the
grounds to the fair association they
assume charge and conduct the fair
themselves. 1t is a self supporting
institution and will pay them interest on
their money invested. He would not

grounds and shanded in the afternoon
by the trees. A permanent secretary on
an annual salary, with nothing to do
but look after the fair, advertise it,
interview exhibitors and work up dis
