To Wed an Albanian.

The interesting rumOr had already
reached here from Mobile, that
Edward Buck, who had 81 long
withstOod the siege Of womanly
loneliness, had at last capitulated
to the charms of an Alabama girl.
The cards that reach here later con-
firm the news, since they read that
"Mr. and Mrs. Orville Franklin
Cawthon request the hononr Of
your presence at the marriage
ceremony of their daughter EstelIe
to Mr.. Edward Jefferies Buck, OIL
the evening Of Tuesday, the seven
teenth of December, at half after
eight O'clock, Trinity Church,
Mobile"
The reception will be held at
nine TO eleven o'clock, 352 State
street, and the numerous friends of
the groom in this parish would fain
be with him in those joyous hours
to join with his other newer, but not
truer, friends in warmest congratu-
latiOns and good wishes for his
marital career. They need not he
told that bis chosen bride is lovely
in person and in character. They
know his faultless taste will not go
astray in this momentous matter,
and also that she, the elect lady,
has yielded her heart to no Ill.,
worthy keeping. For though ex-
Ceedingly popular in society, Ed
ward Buck is no mere ballroom
beau, but man, in very truth, of
conspicuous ability in business.
He was the promoter Of both the
Bank of West FeliCiaua and the
Bank of Clinton, and after the
former was established served with
great acceptability as its cashier,
until hO resigned to accept similar
position in the City National Bank
of Mobile. lie still retains con-
nection with the frst.named banks
as vice-president of one and di.
rector Of the other.
And the sequel is that in fair
Mobile, he will we'd the daughter of
the president Of tho bank over
which he presides az cashier.

alum which, in addition to being nat
ural curiosity, Is a source Of wealth
for the inhabitants of the country, who
dig from it yearly tons of alum. The

height of 1910 feet. The alum is OBJ
tanned by quarrying large blocks Of
stone, which are first heated In great
