MARRYING IN oRRMA ANY.
Red Tape Americans Have 70 90 Through
TO Get the Knot TIED.


An unfortunate citizen of south Da-
kota, OF German birth, went to Bavaria
while ago to wed the woman OF his
choice. The young couple were all
ready to have the ceremony performed
when the unpleasant discovery was
made that the Bavarian authorities re-
quired certain proofs that II was prop
er for the marriage contract to be
made. This necessity, says the New
York Sun, required the production OF
various documents from the United
States, and four months elapsed be-
fore the marriage was permitted to
take place. The dilemma OF this cou-
pie has moved Mr.. SterE, our CONNER
cial agent In the city OF Hamburg. to
give some advice and information to
German citizens of the land who con-
template marrying In the old country.
This advice appears In our consular re-
ports which, as rule, deal far more
largely with commercial than matri-
monial interests. II appears that the
laws concerning the marriage Of for
revised and more stringent regulations
are nov in force, as Germany does not
intend that any mistake shall be made
II she can help 1t. In the first place II
must be proved that one or both OF
the contracting parties are really for
eigners A certificate of naturalization
in foreign land must therefore be
produced, as a preliminary. Then the
authorities in the foreign land must
provide another certificate to show
that they know of no just cause or i'm
pediment why the marriage should not
take place, and this document must be
verified by the German ambassador or
German consul. One or the other Of
these officials also must certify TO a
certificate of birth, which the appli-
cant is required to produce. II there
is any consanguinity between the cou-
pie, the applicant must produce proof
that in his adopted country this rela-
tionship forms no impediment to the
marriage, and II he has been previous
ly married and has been divorced the
decree relating to the annulment of
the marriage, verified by a consul must
be forthcoming Perhaps an appropri-
ate title for these new marriage laws
would be: Acts to prevent foreigners
from coming over TO Germany to mar
ny German girls and thus deplete the
population Of this great empire"

The whole OF Cuba, according TO a
report made to the governor-general
by Alexis Frye, superintendent Of Gu
ban schools. seems to be on nre with
enthusiasm for education. Six weeks
ago there existed in the island fewer
than 200 schools, all based on the old
Spanish foundations. with the excep-
ton OF few that had been established
more than year before In Santiago
by Gen. Wood. There are now 2,06s
schools In the island. OF which 201 are
In Havana city, 1852 In MatanzaE city
and 10 In Puerto Principe city. The
schools that have already reported
show an aggregate attendance OF more
than 100000 pupils, and Mr.. Frye be-
lieves this attendance will have IN
creased to 10000 before June i.

sentative Of the Roman Catholic reli-

for his kind heart and for his utter dis
regard for his personal appearance, re-
lates the Chicago Tribune So far is
he from a proud and naughty disposi-
tion that he is known by the tenants on
his estates as Uncle Henry" Because
of the poor clothes which he wears he
has been the victim OF some curious
and amusing adventures. On one occa-
sion he had engaged to distribute the
prizes to the pupils OF convent. In
stead Of riding to the convent in state,
he walked, and was met in the grounds
by one of the sisters, who judging
from his appearance that he was an
applicant for charity, expressed her
sorrow that relief war not distributed
on that day.

Here's q new one. It's jolly cork

cause the Republican party of Oklaho

way, is not likely.
notice has been published, signed
"W. M. Allen, chairman" and IN.
Ryan, territorial secretary" in which
all fourth-class postmasters are ere
quested to meet in the court house in
Guthrie on May ist, to organize and
to Exchange ideas for mutual ad-
vancement."
This Is something so scintillatingly
bright and absolutely refreshing that
it calls for special mention.
An organization OF postmasters-
Republican postmaters-how does that
strike your Wonder how It will strike
the third assistant postmaster general
when the Intelligence is conveyed 10
him? And in campaign year, too, q
year when Dennis 4. Flynn, know ng
full well that 81 of his promises have
aattened OF their own volition aud
that Ills free homes bugaboo is bereft
OF weight, will seek to gain his poliii-
cal ends by sordfd dickering, traffic
ing in poblic patronage, and even GO
ing SO far as to cause ignorant fourth
class postmasters to violate the ex.
press provisions of the law by band
ing themselves into a league for "mu-
tual exchange of ideas. It's a pretty
scheme, but 1t will not work, not this
year. il the postoffiee department
knows itself and we entertain faint
suspicion that it does. This postofIice
leavening is too heavy. Some other
variety Of yeast is necessary,
One Of the most stringent rules OF
the postoffice department reads in this
4 wise:
And be IL further provided that II
shall be unlawful for two or more
postmasters OF the second, third and
! fourth class 10 form clubs, societies or
organizations, for the alleged purpose
| OF self-advancement The de
psrtment deems such clubs, ETC., not
conducive 10 efficient service.
Any violations OF this order will be
followed by dismissal" !"

ers OF Logan county be good?

ROMANCE OF AN EGG.

For a full-hedged romance to hatch
from a common hens egg is a rather
extraordinary occurrence, but this is
what has transpired as the result of an
idle action of a pretty Iowa girl and
the mystery-loving nature Of govern
ment employe in Cuba, the egg acting
as a means OF introduction.
The opening chapter OF the romance
dates from last summer, when the egg
reached Miss Lizzie Gilday, a clerk In
an egg-exporting establishment in Fort
Dodge. Iowa. During a period OF rest
Miss Gilday inscribed her name and
address on a large white egg with In
delible ink. It was shipped with big
consignment to a Nav York dealer,
and made a part of one OF the first
shipments Of American eggs to Cuba.
The egg at last came into the possess
sion OF Charles P. H. Smith, one OF the
United States civil-service men at
Guines, and he noticed the address.
He wrote to Miss Gilday and In due
season received a reply. The cores
pondence thus opened continued, pic
lures we're exchanged and the romance
developed.
In the near future Mr. Smith will
journey TO Iowa, and as soon as ar
rangements can be completed, will, II
IS said, return TO Cuba with the bride
which was brought to him by an egg.
