4 Romantic Marriaue

The twentieth century is not to be with out romance. It will have at least one pretty young woman, in the person of Miss Florence Elizabeth Harris of Birmingham, whose approaching wedding to MT. James William Penn of Attalia, Ala, was an- nouneed to take place on January 30, but who was plucky enough to be married yes terday to her first sweetheart, MT. Arthur Richard Forsyth of Birmingham. The we'd ding took place at Il o'clock at the resi- dence of the brides parents, MT. and Mrs. George C. Harris, at 1872 avenue K The ceremony which occurred in the drawing room, was performed by Rev. John G. Murray, rector of the Church of the Ad- vent There were only the relatives and few friends present.
 Miss Harris wore a gown of white satin trimmed with pearls, and carried white roses, the same toilette that she would have worn the night of her wedding to Mir. Penn.
 The engagement of Miss Harris to Mir Penn was announced in the social column of the Sunday papers, and among those who have been offering her congratula tions this week was her old lover and first sweet heart.
 The romance of her school girl days was more serious than that of most girls and after she left school she remained true to her first lover, who wood her ardently. They became engaged, and yet the date ot the wedding was never announced Some one has said that the course of true love never runs smooth. The engagement was broken, and then Miss Harris approach ing wedding to MT. Penn was announced.
 Thursday night MT. Forsyth called at the residence of the brides parents, and before leaving he had the assurance that his long years of devotion were to be at last rewarded.
 Miss Harris did not inform any member of her family that she had changed her plans until a few minutes before MT. For syth and the clergyman arrived at the Harris residence shortly before Il o'clock yesterday morning. MT and Mrs Forsyth left at noon for short wedding journey. The brides travelling gown was of black cloth with which she wore a black velvet toque. She is a very attractive young wo- man. MT. Forsyth is connected with the First National Bank-of Birmingham, and is well-known in the business world. He was formerly from Atlanta, Ga.

 THE ARMY BILL
(Contlnued From First Page.)

Continued From t1rSt Fage) the Senator reflected the attitude of the dominant party.
 March Toward Empire.
 'The passage of this bill, declared the Georgia Senator, will mark an epoch in the United States. Senators may scoff, but it is nevertheless true that the passage of a bill in which the President shall con- trol the size of the army is d march to- ward empire. It is the evident purpose of the bill to eliminate for all time the volun- teer from the military establishment of the country and create for all time great standing army.
 "The issue is not to be evaded. Shall it be in the future the province of the Presi- dent to raise armies, or shall that be the province of Congress?
 'I would rather see the party belong to condemned to universal and never-ending punishment from political power than to see such an authorization of power placed upon the statute books"
 MT. Hoar said an army of 100, 900 at present would not make the President more formid- able than he was made by an army of 25,- 900 when that limit was fixed. He did not regard an army of 100000 as a menace, as that number in his judgment, was far with in the limit of domestic safety to liberty The bill in addition, authorized the Presi- dent to reduce the number of the army still lower, but owing to the use to be made of that army he would have to vote against the bill
 The army bill was then laid aside and the House apporronment Dill passed With out objection
 The Senate, at 5:25 p. m., went into ex- ecutive session, and five minutes later ad- journed

CHANGE OF CLIMATE
Not Necessary in Order to Cure catarrh

The popular idea that tine only cure for chronic catarrh is change of climate is a mistake because catarrh is found in all cn- mates in all sections of the country and even if change of climate should benefit for time the catarrh will certainly re- turn.
 Catamh may be readily cured in any ch- mate, but the only way to do 1t is to de- stroy or remove from the system the ca tarrhal germs which cause all the mis- chief.
 The treatment by inhaers. sprays, pow ders and washes has been proven almost useless in making a perma nent cure, as they do not reach the seat of disease, which is in the blood and can be reached only by an internal remedy which acts through the stomach upon the blood and system generally.
 A new discovery which is meeting with remarkable success in curing catarrh of the head, throat and bronchial tubes and also catarrh of the stomach, is sold by druggists under name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
 These tablets, which are pleasant and harmless to take, owe their efficiency to the active medicinal principles of Blood Root, Red Gum and a new specific called Guaiacol, which together with valuable antkeptics are combined in convenient, palatabie tablet form and as valuable for children as for adults.
 MT A. R. Fernbank Of Columbus, O., says I suffered so many winters from Catarr1n that I took fit as a matter of course, and that nothing would cure it except a change of climate which my bu- siness affairs would not permit me to take
 My nostris were almost always clogged up, I had to breathe through the mouth, causing an infamed irritated throat. The thought of eating breakfast often nau- seated me and the catarrh gradually get ting into my stomach took away my appe- tite and digestion.
 My druggist advised me to try 5O-cent box of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, because he said he mad so many customers who had been cured of Catarrh by the use of these tablets, that he felt he could honest ly recommend them I took his advice and used several boxes with results that sur prised and delighted me.
 always keep box of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets in the house and the whole family use them freely on the first appearance of a cough or cold in the head.
 With our children we think there is noth- ing SO safe and reliable as Stuart's Catarrh Tablets to ward off croup and colds, and with other people I have known of cases where the hearing had been seriously inn paired by chronic catarrh cured entirely by this new remedy.

ATLANTA UNioNlZED.
Every Newspaper and Job Printing of-
 flee Signs Agreement.

Atlanta, January 11.-(Special )-Negotia- tions that have been pending for several weeks between the printing craft and the employing printers of this city took definite form last night when an agreement was reached by which every book and job printing office in Atlanta will be thorough 1y unionized.
 Heretofore only the newspaper offices of ihe city have been under the regime of the printers union. At some date in the near future every business of any charac- ter which employs printers, pressmen, or any one connected with the craft will be carried on by union labor.

A Younu Wife.

"A Young Wife," one of last seasons sue cesses will receive its presentation here at the Jefferson Theatre next Monday night. It is said to be extremely we'll played by Frank Tannehell Jr., and his company. A leading paper recently said:
 .'The play and company made decided hit, and everybody went away thoroughly pleased. The play is described on the pro- gramme as comedy drama, and while there is certainly a comedy strain running through the piece, there is something deeper and stronger, story that interests one from the very start and one that borders very much on the melo-dramtic A combi- nation of circumstances that are perhaps a little out of the ordinary, lead young and loving wife to believe that her--husband, an adopted son, fact which she is ignor- ant of, is the murderer of his father, while the actual murderer is the real son, who was in disgrace. The young wife, kidnapped in infancy by vile people, from whom she was rescued at an early age, is forced to revisit the den where she met the guilty man, who endeavors to force his love upon her. From this predicament she is rescued by Vermont countryman. Believing her husband guilty and that he has killed his father in a quarrel about her, she decides to protect him as far as lies in her power. The detective in the case discovers the young wife's past history, her visit to the den and several other circumstances and believes her guilty. This leads to a strong scene between the guilty man and the low ing wife To gain time, the latter pretends to accede to the wishes of the villain that she accompany him abroad, and with her arms around his neck and with passionate words of love, makes him hand over his re- volver She then betrays him to her hus- band and the detective, with the aid of the Vermont gentleman, the family records and photographs, prove he is the real son and the guilty man..

The Rays.

The success of Johnny and Emma Ray in "A Hot Old Time" which comes to the Jefferson Theatre next Thursday, is of the substantial sort that admits of no argu- ment. This attraction is now in it's fourth season, and it has steadily grown in l. or since the original production in New York City. The fact that the Rays invariably play to increased receipts on their return engagements is conclusive evidence that they are well worth seeing. Last season Johnny Ray and his elastic mouth made a great hit here.
