THE BELLS DID RING
IN SPITE OF ALL.
Marriage Was a Surprise
When Told.
CUPID PROVED OUT a WINNER.
Mr.. Jacobs and Miss Hays EIope and
Were Wedded-Announce of
! sTheir Marriage Caused Quite a Sur
prise Here.

The announcement yesterday morn
ing Of the marriage of Miss Lizzie
Hays and Mr.. Harry Jacobs came as a
distinct surprise to their friends here
as we'll as to the family of the pretty
young bride, the daughter of MIR. and
Mrs. Will Hays, residing near the
city.
The young couple were married at
10:30 o'clock the night before at the
Methodist parsonage here.
The announcement was the more
surprising from the fact that it was
generally understood that the young
groom had but recently been paying
the devoted to another here.
Be this as it may, Mr.. Jacobs called
upon Miss Hays Friday night and the
two went for drive which ended at
the residence of Rev. w. L Wootten
at 10 o'clock, where the rites were SOL
emnized. They then went to the
home of the brides sister, Mrs. S, A.
Smith.
A brief note left upon her dresser at
home by Miss Hays explained her abb
sence to her parents.
The marriage was the elimination
of rather romantic episode occurring
here recently, and in which the public
has felt considerable interest. But
Calls we'll that ends we'll" and the new.
ly welded pair will be as happy as if
united to the music of cathedral
chimes.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jacobs left yesterday
afternoon for Fitzgerald, Ga. where
they will reside.

ELS Lagt Hope Realized.

TFrom the Sentinel Gebo Mont.l
In the first opening of Oklahoma to set
tiers in 1889 the editor of this paper was
among the many seekers after fortune
who made the big race one fine day in
April. During his travelling about and
afterwards his camping upon his claim
he encountered much bad water, which
together with the severe heat, gave him a
very severe dfarrhoea which it seeernd al
most impossible to check. and along in
June the case became 50 bad he expected
to die. One day one of his neighbors
brought him one small bottle of Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rene
dy as a last hope. A big dose was given
him while he was rolling about on the
ground in great agony and in few min
feet of the medicine was soon noticed and
within an hour the patient was taking his
first sound sleep for a fortnight. That one
little bottle worked a complete cure. and
he can not help but feel grateful. The sea-

IRON FROM ENGLAND.
Purchases of Pig Continue to Be
Heavy on This Side.

New York June 26.-While the mar
ket for early delivery of foundry iron
continues exceedingly tight and higher
prices are being realized interest centers
in Developments for next year, says the
Iron Age. One large southern concern
has opened books for the first six
months Of 1908 at $780, Birmingham,
for No. 2 is reported to have sold be-
tween sc, 900 and 10000 tons. Similar ac-
ton has been taken by some of the Chi
cago producers, and they, too, have
taken a fair amount of orders. In the
east quite a good deal of business has
been booked for the last half of the
current year at $22 to So. so for No 2
foundry and at $2150 to $22 for the first
six months Of 1903. On the whole, there
fore, buyers seem to be taking hold to
moderate extent at prices which look
quite liberal There have been further
purchases of pig iron in England and
several cargOes have been added to for
ner transaction.
In the steel trade an interesting point
is that foreign business in Chicago has
in through rates for freight. Some ac-
dltiona1 business in foreign steel has
been done in other districts. and there
is still demand unsatisfied for future
delivery. In the steel rail trade the
western markets seem to monopolize tbs
activity. Chicago reports sales aggre-
eating about $4,000 tons for next years
delivery. Activity in the structure
trade continues undated. In the sheet
trade complaints are heard of growing
competition, and notably in galvanized
sheet, prices are easy. Bars have steadi-
ed in the west after the little furry.
