DAYS GROWING SOME SHORTER
Few Minutes Are Sliced Off Every
Day Now.

Careful Americas people have doubt
less noticed that the days are growing
shorter. The difference is scarcely per-
ceptibIe-iust minute or two sliced
off each afternoon-but during such
blazing weather even this is a comfort
ing reflection. It's pity the ''short-
enin" cannot be taken out of the mid
die of the day, when the sun shines
hottest.

Jones-Hill Marriage.

The startling sensation of last
week was the marriage of Miss
Marion Hill to Mr.. Luther Jones,
both the children of old Edgefeld.
Without leave or license, this
young couple, after the graduating
exercises on Wednesday even
ing in the opera house, repaired
to the residence of Rev. Richard
Anderson, rector of the Episcopal
church, whom they selected to tie
the Gordiap knot. They doubt
less thought the precept of the i'm
mortal Shakespeare as good as any
they could follow: If it were
done when it is done, then it were
well 'twere done quickly" And
if the young people of the future
will. just get their psrents' consent
first, and then run away, this is
probably the best way after all. If
it is romance they wish, bis way
is most full of 1t, if novelty, to this
we must yield the precedent, if
economy, where is better way ?
If style, they can enjoy that after
ward. 1t prevents much of the
foolish nonsense which so many
people think is the necessary ac-
compartment of wedding, and
gives the public pleasant sensa-
ton, and something interesting to
talk about. The public is much
indebted to Mr.. and Mrs. Jones for
this abatement of it's monotony,
and wishes them all good fortune
and happiness
