those who are in position to grow

time took place at the home Of
the brides uncle Milton X. Welch. on
Dodge street. ats:3O last night. when

Mr.. B. F. Reed. The Welch home was
appropriately decorated for the occasion.
Miss Bessie NJ. Logan is young lady
who is well kno wn to almost everyone in
the community having lived here several
years.
The lucky man in this instance is en-
gagged in the photograph business in this
city and is we'll known ss capable and
upright young man Of good business
ability and industrious habits.
The solemn words which united these
we'll known young people for life were

the presence OF relatives and few
intimate friends.
The bride was gowned in white organ
die with lace and ream roses. the groom
was dressed in the regulation black.
Miss Maude Barker acted as brides

The statement has frequently been
made that 1t is possible to cause grains
Of wheat found in ancient Egyptian
sepulchers to germinate and grow
This statement has been disputed and
the question was discussed at recent
meeting of the French Academy OF
Sciences. 1t was shown that while the
albumen Of wheat found In tomb 5000
years old had undergone no alteration
thesembryo was changed and could no.
be caused to germinate. But fresh
embryo placed In the ancient albumen

A. w. Machen, superintend OF the
free delivery postal service, said 10 the
course Of very interesting conversation:
THE rural free delivery is now an assur-
ed, permanent and expanding branch OF
postal system. which Is SO rapidly
developing under trained and skillful
guidance that any conclusion applicable
thereto may be considered within reason
The public benefits occurring from the
service are many and ramiHed. Good
roads are a condition precedent to the
establishment Of route. Creeks and
streams must be bridged. The highways
must be kept in permanent repair. A
community denied mail delivery for the
reason that its roads are unfit and it's
bridges insecure will at once rot about
to place it's thoroughfares in good repair
and keep them 60 Thegreat problem OF
good roads, 10 thus happily solved with
ono stroke OF the postmaster generals
pen when he authorizes the establish
mont Of routes, and the roads 10 some
sections OF the states where tho system
has been established have been wonder
fully improved, to the decided better
mont of tho farmer and the entire
community. This spring by reason 1t
bad roads We have been occasionally
obliged to abandon trips on several
routes In tho west. We have notiitsd
those communities that unless the roads
years experience will not be repssted,
tho service will be discontinued. - Il
will be. Advocates a good rosds will
thoroughly appreciate the meaning Il
this order. ~ will also the communitiss
which want FREQ delivery. and to most

Philippines, returned in the Nippon
Maru, and Immediately started for his
home. He left here June 20, on the

company with Adjt.-Gen. Corbin, Gen.
Weston and Congressman Julias
Kahn. Soon after reaching the Phil
ppines these officials, with Surgeon
General Sternberg, made a circuit of
The archipelago in the transport Law
.on. All were highly pleased with the
progress made under American admin
istration, no dissatisfaction among
the Filipinos being apparent. The
more southerly ports of The islands,
If which comparatively little could be
heard, were found to be prosperous,
with Americans and Filipinos frater-
nizing. The future of the Philippines,
IN the opinion of Senator Dietrich, is

There are no strings tied to us, and
if we were not satisfied we would

London, Sept. 22.-While Mr.. Kruger
and DIR. Leyds are drawing up petit
tons to President Roosevelt and the
car, asking them to intervene, the
fighting Beers are helping themselves
in South Africa by celebrating the ex-
piration of the period in which Lord
Kitchener proclaimed they must sur
render by four notable successes, kill
ing GO officers and men, wounding 50
and capturing five guns and 300 men.
Recalls Two Ycnrs Ago.
The situation is singularly like the
opening of the war, two years ago,
the names of the same places recur-
ring in the dispatches. Utrecht, where
Maj. Cough was entrapped, was the
scene of similar ambushcade IL
months back. Acton Homes, where
the Beers. Friday, reappeared, is IS
miles southwest of Ladysmith, prom
inent in the carly hostilities, and the
Natal colonials are mastering for tho
defense of the Tugela, as when Gen
Joubert invaded Natal in 1909.
Fighting I'm Cape Colony.
In Cape Colony, fighting is again
going on south of Stormberg, in ter
ritory traversed by raiders and their
pursuers half dozen times.
The government publication Of
these reverses causes an outburst Of
.ynsperation against the conduct of
the war, not in South Africa but by
the ministry. The great ministerial
journals accuse the government of
trying to run the war ION the cheap"
by not providing Lord Kitchener with
sufficient resources.
Lack of Organized Effort.
The Times, while it has no misgiv-
ings as to the final issue, accuses the
home authorities of lack of organized,
sustained effort, OF disposition to
postpone military for financial con-
siderations, and of failure to grasp
the moral and intellectual damage
which the prolongation of the strug-
gle inficts on the empire. Other min
isterial supporters aver that precious
months which should have been spent
in preparing for another campaign
were wasted in electioneering, and
that Lord Kitchener has not been
supplied with the requisites.

NO NEGOTIATIONS.
Coal Operators Were Not Party to Al.

NO DEALING WITH UNION LEADERS.

The papers have been full of a
lot Of stuff about alleged negotia-
tions between union leaders and
the coal operators of Hopkins
county leading to a "compro-
mise" of the mining situation.
The negotiations were open
ed by Judge Yost, who seems to
have attempted to force recog-
milton for his clients in public
print and to have tried to make
the operators write themselves
down on a par with the outlaws
encamped at Madisonville.
The attorneys for the operators
make plain that the operators
did not take part in any such ne
gotiations. In what is adver-
tised as the "counter PROPOSE
tion," the attorneys say:
"Seventh-State whether or
not the authorized officers of the
United Mine Workers of Ameri-
ca will enter into these stipula-
Cions in their present form. If
they will do so, we will take i'm
mediate steps to ascertain and
report whether the coal operators
of Hopkins county will join in
this agreement"
