The British War Office recent
ly recruited sixteen Thousand i'm
perial yeomanry for service in
South Africa, and when they were
delivered into the hands Of Lord
Kitchener he found that most OF
them could neither ride nor shoot.
1t does seem sometimes as if the
British Government thought the
war in South Africa was a pink
tea. But the opinions expressed
by Lord Kitchener when he got
this consignment of soldiers have
not yet passed the censor.

ges the following Indictment
against the circuit Judge in that
district: Judge James Neville
went out to Columbia the other
day and robbed the town. OF
course, it is not understood that
he held up the towu or bored a
hole nit and inserted piece Of
dynamite. But he went down af-
ter the crap shooters and pistol
toters and what he did for them
was a "nuff." He fined them from
S25 up to $3.50 and the last heard
of him he was examining the stat
lures to zee if he could not fine
them $4,000 each. Judge Neville
is becoming holy terror among
the crap shooters, pistol totery
and blind tiger dealers. But he
has the consolation of knowing
that if they can stand it he; can.

Meridian Star: We desire TO
extend congratulations to the peo-
pie of Warren county on the de-
feat yesterday of Dabney Marshall
for the Legislature. The entry of
this pardoned convict-murderer

ture Marshall will know exactly
how to place himself in public

ever put II stop on his ambitions
to help make laws that he has al

A SUNDAY EVENING WEDDING.

"For better or for worse" are the
sacred words repeated after the offici-
ating clergyman, Rev. w. M. Fry
singer, by Frank II. Evans and Miss
Cora Myers, who were the principals
in a unique wedding, which took place
IN the Methodist Church Sunday eve-
ming. Pursuant to previous arrange
ment the couple appeared at the
church at the close of the evening
service ready to assume the bonds of
marriage. They presented themselves
at the altar in the presence of large
audience. The spacious interior was
filled, even the aisles were occupied,
and it was once proposed that the
gallery be called into requisition.
This match introduces to Bloomsburg
quite an innovation in the way of
weddings, and so happy has been the
result that it is not bad judgment to

FOUL PLAY FEARED.
Albert Metzger Has Been Missing Since Sat.
urday, June 29th.

A source of great anxiety to his
family and to his friends IN general is
the whereabouts of Albert Metzger.
He has been missing since Saturday
evening, June aoth. On the morning
of that day, he and his wife left their
home in this town, to 60 to Bender
town, where they had at one time re-
sided, for the purpose Of making some
collections from people who owed him
tor labor. Mrs. Metzger left there in
the afternoon with the understanding
that her husband was to follow in the
evening. He arrived at Forks in the
evening, short time after the train
had left for Bloomsburg. This was
the last train, and there was nothing
for him to do, but walk, if he wished
to reach home that night. He did
not start for some time, however, as
he was seen by number of people at
church festival which was being held
in Laubach's Grove, a short distance
below the Forks station. He talked
with friends, but some of them say
that he appeared rather melancholy.
He was offered ride part way home,
but declined, saying she needed the
exercise" This was about half past
eleven o'clock, and was the last seen
of him.
Mr.. Metzger is known to have had
considerable money on his person,
which fact tends to deepen the i'm
preston that he has been foully dealt
with.
Horton Laubach, a young man who
has for some time past been making
his home with the Metzger family
went up to Forks Tuesday morning in
the hope OF getting some trace of the
missing man, but returned in the even
ing without having learned anything
In regard to his whereabouts.
Some people are inclined to the be-
lief that he has committed suicide, but
those who are more intimately &C
quainted with him, place little cred
ence in this theory, because he was
without trouble OF any kind, and was
right well to do.
The Royal Arcanum of this town,
of which Mr.. Metzger is a member
will send committee of four up the
creek today to aid in the search for
him.

An advertisement in a local pa
per, not long since, which was very
generous in extent, read:
"Person to wash and one to sew.
Payment in music lessons, Light
street."
1t seems to us that there ought to
be little extra or boot" in this
transaction. That the washboard
is greater than the piano, and that
the sewing machine is greater than
the washboard are modern proverbs.
Of course, if laundress wants to get
herself up in Wagner, or if a sewing
girl wants to cultivate her voice so
that she may rise like another Lii
liam Russell, there is nothing to be
said. But on the face Of it, the
person that secures free washing
and sewing in return for music les
sons has the best of the bargain.
