they offer no attractions TO the average

II should also be remembered that n

so fully developed that there IS little
prospect OF any considerable inorasc; the
growth of branch lines and terminals be-
ing a comparatively small source for the
creation OF new securities. While there Is
little propect OF large new offerings the
supply OF funds seeking investment must
be rapidly increasing. This factor should
not be overlooked as a bull argument for
the long run. Merchants and manufac-

of the most fragrant abuses of the

During the past week several of ~,
committees envelopes, bearing ne
address Of persons in Oklahoma. have
been returned to Washington for the
reason that the persons to whom they
were addressed could not be found.
When these letters were opened an
important discovery was made. 1t
was found that ex-Delegate Callahan,
who has now been out OF congress for
nearly two years, Yves using the en-
velopes TO send out political letters.

HEIRESS
Msrrics Her Fathers Driver
and Patterson is Shocked.

Scripps- McRae League.
New York, March 27 Mother.
Don't worry. Married Nick Bush this
afternoon. Lou"
This is the telegram received by
Mrs. John H. Dunning, OF Patterson,
N. j., while the father and brothers
were making a search for the missing
young womRn.
It was dated at Rutherford, N.
and OF course It explained the disap-
earance OF Miss Duunirg on Wednes-
day. Her father Is the senior mem
Der Of the tobacco manufacturing
firm OF Dunning & Allen, and is ricn.
The family is prominent socially.
Nicholas Bush was employed by the
family as driver at $40 per week A
few days ago Mr.. Dunning learned of
the attachment between the young
people and Bush was promptly dis
charged, so be hasn't any job 1T pres
ent.
Neither the mother ncr any other
member of the family are obeying the
daughters injunction not TO worry.
On the contrary they are worrying a
great deal, and all Patterson is sur
prised and shocked by the news.
Miss Dunning is nineteen years old
darE-eyed. talented and graceful. She
made her debut in society two years
ago at the Patterson charits ball.
Nick Bush is twenty-one years OF
age, rather good looking after fash
ion, dresses well for one of his income
and smokes cigarettes.
Miss Dunning first met Bush year
ago. He was then employed as a clerk
in silk mill. Three months ago he
became driver for the tobacco fac
tory The young couple exercised
much discretion and kept their attach
mcnt from becoming known.
When Mr.. Dunning did learn OF it
he took what he thought were effec
tive measures, but on Wednesday Miss
Dupning and Blu h disappeared. The
parents suspected an elopement and
Mr.. DunninR and his sons were search
ing for trace OF her among clergy
men in adjoining cities when the teie-
gram arrived.
Mr., and Mrs. Nicholas Bush return
ed to Patterson yesterday and went 70
the home Of the young mans father,
who was formerly employed in the
Dunning & Allen factory as cigar
maker.
