Wonders Never Cease.

The Scientific American describes
a machine that will do the work Of
section gangs on railroads in l~eyelin2
and trimming the road5sd and pre-
serving the proper width, level and
slope that is required on standard
roads. This work is usually done by
hand labor and 1t requires some skill
to do 1t correctly. but. now the machine
invented by Mr.. Franklin Barr, assist
ant general manager Of the Boston &
Maine railroad. is throwing the labor
ers into a panic all along the line.
Space prevents giving a detailed dis
cription Of this new colossal labor dis
placing tool. 1t is only necessary to
mention that a 80 mile section was
trimmed with the car in four days re-
Gently, whereas the same work, If done
in the same time by hand. would have
required the employment Of 375 men.
AS 1t was. the force required, in addi-
ton to the locomotive, consisted of a
trial crew, a foreman and four men.
In a word, there Is a saving or dis
placement Of IS per cent in cost OF
labor, No doubt the section hands
will stand alongside Of the tracks for a
while and say, "you can't do it, but
the fact remains that the new tool will
take its place by the side Of the mann.

men we're in the apparatus room when
the flames were discovered by some one
passing by. At first it was thought,
because Of the dense smoke, that the
adjoining frame cottage, owned by Mrs.
Roberts, was ai1re and an alarm was at
once turned in. The fremen soon discov-
cred however that their own house was
ablaze and that the entire building was
threatened with destruction, so rapidly
were the flames spreading. The alarm
brought two companies to the scene and
it was not long before the fire was under
control.
The FIRE started among the hay in the
loft to the rear of the sleeping apart
ments. It then spread to an opening
extending between the ceiling and roof
over the he'd room. BY this time. how

consequently none Of the furnishings in

BEGGED The GROOM
Young Woman Pleads With
Him Not to Marry
COULDN'T STOP WEDDING
Although She Threatened
Breach of Promise Suit.

The threat Of mis- former hance to enter
suit for breach Of promise did not keep
W. r. Meng from marrying Mrs h R.
Devaughan Of Mt. Hope yesterday.
The ceremony was performed in the
parlors of the probate court by Judge
Kirk. Of the city court. yesterday after
noon.
Mrs. Devaughan was widow and
owns quite bit of land at Mt. Hope.
She has two children by her former
husband. young man p years old,
and daughter of II. Mr.. Meng was her
head farmer. Mr. Meng and Mrs. De
Vaughan decided to wed. Then another
appeared on the scene This party was a
comely maid Of lola, Allen county.
She said she had a prior claim to the
heart and hand Of Meng, by some three
years and under no consideration would
she brook any interference from a second
party Some one informed her that Mrs.
Devaughan and Mr. Meng were to be
married Thursday. Yesterday she was
up before sunrise and caught the first
train leaving lola for Mt. Hope. Mrs.
De Vaughan, or rather Mrs. Meng, said
yesterday that the lola young woman
was almost a stranger to her, but that
she called at her farm and pleaded
with her not to marry Meng. She said
that If she would refuse to do so she
could succeed IN winning him over. The
lola, young woman was informed that
Meng was old enough to choose for him
self. Meng said he had decided and
would marry the widow. Mr.. Meng, Mrs.
DeYaughan that was, and the young
woman from lola took the Missouri
Pacific for Wichita
Mr. Meng said that the young woman
from lola again requested him on the
train to marry her, and when ne refused
she protested and attracted the attention
of the passengers in the coach. Then,
loud enough for all to hear, Mr.. Meug
stated, she told him If rs would marry
the widow she would sue him for breach
of promise. Arriving at Wichita the pros
pective bride and groom proceeded to the
court house, while the disappointed young
woman returned to her home at lola The
incidents in the case somewhat worried
Mrs. DeVaughan and she decided to CON
suit an attorney before entering into the
new alliance.
County Attorney Anidon succeeded in
allaying her fears and the knot was soon
tightly tied. In speaking Of the affair
Mr. Meng related the circumstances as
detailed above and then admitted that he
had been engaged to the young woman
from lola about two years ago, but that
the engagement was broken at her own
request. He said that the young woman
when reminded Of that fact yesterday
morning said that it was true that she
had requested to be released from the en-
gagement but that she had done so in
moment Of anger.
When the court house was closed yes
terday. no breach Of promise suit had as
yet been fled.
