Disorder.
e s3lFieks startled the pupil

Feminine shrieks startled the pupils
Of the Walnus High school, Cncin-
natl, the other afternoon. Some boys
had brought snake to school in a
box as a geological specimen They
amused themselves during school
hours by showing it to the girls in
Miss Rice's room, who were according
ly affected.
Miss Rice heard the commotion. and,
finding the box was creating disorder,
she confscated it and tried to throw
it out of the window. Her aim was
bad, and the box lid flew off. Horror
stricken when she saw the snake
wriggling along the floor, Miss Rice
gathered up her skirts and fled, while
the air was filed with cries of terror
from the girls as they wildly scram-
bled to places Of safety.
When the boys caught the snake
order was restored.

ParsOn. ..<<a.- =.

A marriage service by telegraph,
with the bride and groom 200 miles
apart, was carried out between Kan
sas City, Mo-, and Mobile. Okla, at

The groom was Andrew M. CandeI,

ment. The bride was Miss Penelope
Cundiff, of Perkins, Okla, the daugh-
ter of prosperous farmer of that

Mr.. Candell and Miss Cundiff be-
came engaged about six months ago
and the wedding was set for May.
Recently, however, Mr.. Candell was
called to Harrisonville, Mo-, by the
death of his mother. His duties made
it necessary for him to start back
to Washington. He asked Miss Gun
diff to come to Kansas City, so that
the wedding could take place at the
home of his sister. Miss Cundiff was
unable to reach Kansas City in time
and arrangements were made with
the Western Union Telegraph company
to have the marriage ceremony con-
Quoted by wire. A direct line between
Kansas City and Mulhall was placed

THEY WOULD SIARVE
The Fate Of Germany II Imported
Foodstuffs We're Cut OF.
Consul General Mason at Berlin Makes
Interesting Report ON the Sub
ject to the State Depart
t- ment. i st35%Saa Z ss$

Debate which has been In progress
in the German reichstag over the pro-
posed meat inspection act, which II
passed would practically stop al i'm
portation Of live cattle and meats into
Germany, has again revived the ques-
ton of what would the Industrial and
commercial classes Of Germany do for
food if the imported supply Of bread
stuffs and meats should be cut of?
Consul General Mason at Berlin has
made an interesting report upon this
subject to the state department.. Dur
ing the past century, he says, thepopu-
lation of the German empire has in
creased from 10000, 900 to sc, ,0OO, 900 and
a proportionate increase would indi-
cate nearly 1oo,ooo,ooo persons in Ger
many at the close of the twentieth CEN
tury. Farm, dairy and garden produc,
tion does not keep pace by any means
with the steady increase Of population,
and only by diverting the capital and
labor which now furthers commerce
and trade in Germany to the farms and
fields, can the future food sup
ply of the country be assured. But the
task of turning back the young men
of the rural districts who have migrat-
ed to the cities and caught the fever
of trade and traffic, to the drudgery of
farm life, would be a difficult one in
deed, as would also be that of attract
ing to agricultural pursuits the capi-
tai that now earns such abundant prof
it's from industry and trade. In conclu-
sion the consul states that the legisla-
ton enacted this year in regard to the
increase of the food supply will have
o potent influence in shaping the eco
nomic history of Germany for years to

cd Of Treating Wife-Beatars,

Magistrates Bremen and Bristow, of
Brooklyn, agree that the whipping post
is the only efficacious remedy for
wife beating. and will exercise their
influence to obtain the passage Of a
law providing for the; public chastise-
ment of men who beat their wives.
Magistrate Brenner lately extended
clemency to Charles Blaney, accused
by his wife, Kate, of beating her. The
man to Jail when the wife pleaded for

to eat If he wero sont away. Magis-
tnaSs Drenner suspended sentence on
Blazsoy's promise 10 give his wife
money eysuy SATURDAY. nigghs and re-
frain from beating her.
He broke his promise, it is alleged,
and beat his wife severely. He was
arraigned again. Magistrate Bremen
was about to send him to Jail when the
wife again interceded. The magistrate
said: z Il
.Blaney, If I had my will I would
have law passed in this state to es-
ee1oiAoH Ine WulpplnSB posIS 1OISSz$E Hus-
bands who beat their wives. I think
at the next session Of the legislature
something Of this kind light be done.
I will send you to Jail for awhile until
I can learn more about the matter
Magistrate Bremen said after court
had adjourned: 81
Judge BristoW, with whom I have
conferred, agrees with me. We will see
other Judges to learn what can be done

Death OF MIR. Z. +. Wclborn.

This good man passed away from tho
busy scenes Of earth on the night OF
the 9th of May, ut about the agc of =:
years. His busy life HAD been spent in
and near Williamson, where he had
many friends who esteemed him very
highly. lie WAS Il successful farmer,
always attending strictly to Ills own
business which is the secret of success
in any calling Of life. For many years
he had been a faithful member and
deacon Of the Big Creek Baptist
Church. He always took deep inter
est in the welfare OF his church and
gave literally of his means to its sup
port.
Nearly two years ago his devoted
wife departed from him to be with
Christ; and after her death he never
seemed to be the same cheerful, happy
man that he was before. His thoughts
seemed to have been upon the homo
beyond, and he had desire to depart
and he with Christ along with his wife,
whom he loved SO dearly.
For some time Mr.. Wclborn's health
had been declining, and his friends
feared that he would not be with them
long, but did not expect him to go SO
soon; but the Lord called and he pass
cd over tho river on Monday, May eth,
about o'clock. After funeral services
conducted by Rev. w. T. Tate and
his pastor, his mortal remains were laid
to rest In the Big Creek cemetery in
the presence of a large number Of kin
tlred and friends.
OF his immediate family, three chill
drcn-all grown-and four grand
children are left to cherish his mem
ory. Much sympathy is felt for his
children, who. in 80 short awhile, have
been bcreft of both their parents. His
church and community, rs we'll as his
own 1Osl family, NIL y,odtr have 81 sustained @ great
and brother. X. w. B.
