RELIGION NO OBSTACLE.
SPITE A DIFFERENCE OF
CREED.

Says the Sly Louis Republics: A we'd
ding. with a tinge of romance about 1t.
took place Wednesday night at the resi-
dence Of Doctor Willis v. Kingsbury, No.
16 South Sarah street. The contracting
parties were Francis Cooney Of Butte,
Mont. and Miss May Poindexter of Dill
lon. Mont. The bride is a sister Of Mrs.
Kipgsbury, and has beer visiting in the
city for several weeks.
The only impeachment to- the marriage
was a difference of religious belief be-
tween the families Of Mr.. Cooney and
Miss Poindexter. The former is a Cath
Ollie mi the latter's lamily are Protes-
tants. The young folks agreed to get
married anyway. and planned to have
the wedding after the holidays. One day
young Cooney went down to Dillon to see
his fiancee's father, p. HI. Poindexter, a
prominent politician and business man.
PoindeXter had no objection to CoOney
as a son-in-law, n said so. Then he
added: while May is down there in st.
Louis, you might just as we'll go down
there and get married quietly and say
nothing about it until it Is all over"
Cooney took him and came to st.
Louis at once. He had made arrange
ments to obtain a d~ispensation to marry
Miss P~oindexter. as he wished the cere-
mony performed by a priest. 1t came
by mail Sunday, n a license was ob
tanned Tuesday. The wedding was quiet
the ceremony being performed by Father
McMenamy. The couple will visit sew
eral eastern cities before returning to
Butte, where the groom is engaged in
trade.

basis Of settlement of the street railway
strike, which was agreed to by the

company officials, has been rejected bv
the executive committee of the street
railway employees an early settlement is

The point which caused the executive
board OF the employees to reject the prop
osltion was the clause in regard to the
reinstatement Of the old men. The COM
pany offered simply to reinstate all the
old employees, but the executive board
decided that this offer should be amend
ed So that the old employees should be
reln'tated to the position held when the
strike was declared. The Transit com

First National bank of this city; John r.
Wilder, pension agent for the southern
district, and N. f. Thompson. secretary

AN OBJECT LESSON
OF THE CONVENTION

An Interesting Comparison Is Made Of
American and English Made Cloths.
Progress Of the Negro In Evidence by
Normal School Exhibit.
CHATTANOOGA, May 1.-THE South

Chattanooga citizens, devoted the fore
noon to an inspection of the industries
located in this city.
General Joseph Wheeler has arrived.
He will deliver all address on "The

great object lesson of the convention is
the exhibit in the auditorium, where the
sessions are held, of products oe indus
trial schools and the textile exhibits by
the Philadelphia Commercial Museum.
One OF the best exhibits is made by
Che Agricultural and Mechanical col.
lege OF Normal, Ala, an institution for

existence the college has graduated 6S4
students from its mechanical DEPART
ment and 300 from the literary.
The President of the college, Professor
w. H. Council, will address the conven-
ton on phase of the race problem. The
delegates were deeply impressed with
the progress shown among the negro
students along this industrial and other
lines.
The Philadelphia museum has large
exhibit OF textile, such as the southern
manufacturers can produce in competi.
ton with other countries. DR.. Wilson,
In charge of the museum, and DR.. Green
will appear before the convention and
explain their plan of gaining and dis.
seminating information to those want.
ing to branch out into foreign markets.
Among the articles displayed are tex.
tiles made in England for the Chinese
trade, dress goods made in Turkey,
English made goods for the Turkish
market, samples of goods made in
America and offered in the Smyrna
market, but refused on account of in
ferior finish, English textiles made for
Australia, Germany yarn fabrics and
many others, which it is claimed are
inferior to the products of the southern
textile mills and the expectation Of
which the American manufacturer has
not proftably engaged.
Hon. James A. Wilson, secretary of
agriculture, addressed the convention on
.'The Agricultural Interests of the
SOuth "
