If spelling was ever lost art in
Edwards county it has been found
again. The normalites held contest
at the court house Monday evening
for the purpose of selecting twenty
contestants to take part in the Citizens
VS.. Normalites match. The old-fash-
Toned spelling down method was used
and nearly two hours time was re-
quired to complete the process. Miss
Lizzie Motz received first prize,
Webster's Academic dictionary, and
Mr.. S. E. Countryman carried off
second honors and a Webster's
Handy dicti Onary.
The rain and wind of Wednesday
evening interferrd with the final con-
test and many of the citizen spoilers,
glad of an excuse to keep away. staid
at home. However, twelve persons
were found who were willing to take
part and they were arrayed against
an equal number of normalites.
The con eStants appeared to be
evenly matched at the start, but at the
end Of the first halt hour the result
could b, clearly foreseen; the citizens
were losing ground, dropping from
the ranks one by one and retiring
gracefully to the background OF
course several normalites were also
obliged to retire to the rear and as
sumo sitting posture, but these I'M
fortunates were fewer in number than

Finally the last remaining citizen.
Mr.. Krebs, of the Graphic office, lost
his nerve and missed an easy word,
leaving five teachers triumphantly

that these contests will create new in

branch of spelling.
Nerve was at q premium in this
contest. A temporary alteration of
the mind, such as the estimable super

although | am far from denying that a
federal election law would be a good
thing. The only object sought by the
resolution is to secure an investiga-
tion by a bipartisan committee of
Congress of the election laws of the
various states, with view to ascer-
tanning whether or not any voters are
excluded from thefranchise contrary to
the constitution of the United States
This committee is not required to pre-
sent bill to Congress, but simply to
make report, embodying the infor-
nation it acquires, and it is hard to
see how any reasonable objection car
be made to this proposal. 1t has been
matter of common report for years
that in many of the states of the South
large proportion of the population
is unconstitutionally denied the right
OF suffrage. II y is is true, it is GER
tainly a matter of grave moment to
the entire nation, because il one class
of people can be excluded from the
~ uhOlllst III Ou6 SJdlts IHtTt Is uO
eason why another class might not
be excluded in another state, and a
Republican form of government be
thus substantially denied. If it is not
true, then a gross libel has been ut
tered against these states, and they
ought to be cleared of the charge.
The purpose of the Crumpacker reso-
luton is to declare the truth and pub
lish it to the country, so that discus
sion henceforth may proceed upon de-
finite information, and not upon mere
assertion or rumor. l supported the
resolution in the Republican caucus,
and expect to supportit when it comes
before the House, because / believe
the people of Kansas want to have
definite and certain knowledge as to
whether, in fact, the notorious election
laws OF the Southern states are in vio-
lation OF the constitution of the United
States. When that information is be-
fore the country, the people will be
able to act intelligently on the prob
lem which the facts present. c. F. S.

Miss Medora Richards and Mr.
Archibald Jones were married on
Monday evening, March 81. at 8
O'Clock at the home of the brides par
ents, 702 East street. AS the strains
of Mendelsohn' wedding march came
forth, beautifully rendered by Miss
Kingsland oflNevada, little Laura,
sister of the bride and acting as ring
bearer, led the bridal couple into the
parlor where Rev. DR.. L. /. Drake and
large company of relatives stood
waiting to see them united in the holy
bonds of wedlock.
The bride, a beautiful girl and
looking her best, was arrayed in a
dress of white silk muslin entrain, and
carried large boquet of bride roses,
which she threw out among the young
ladies present. Miss Grace Beck was
the fortunate one to catch them. The
groom wore the conventional black.
Mrs. Jones is loved by all who know
her. she is musician of considera-
BILE ability, as those who have heard
her at several entertainments can tes-
tify. Mr.. Jones is the Lanyon Zinc
Company's chemist at LaHarpe and
is held in high esteem by mis- employ
ers as well as by all who know him.
The window at which the couple stood
was wreathed in smilaX and asparagus
fern.
Immediately after the ceremony and
while congratulations were being said,
several placards mysteriously APP
peared upon the wall at different
places. They such as 1--WE are
Just married." How nice to have a
home OF our own," and "Jones, he
pays the freight Watch him do it,. "
There was a shower of rice keptup until
the guests were invited TO supper, the
bride and groom leading the way to
the dining room where the tables were
beautifully decorated and luscious
supper was most daintily served, at
which there were toasts given in honor
of the bridal couple.
The out OF town guests were Mrs. j 4.
H. Richards, Miss Rena Richards,
Mr.. and Mrs. Ralph Richards, Mrs.
w. G. Parkinson and Mr., Hunter, all
from Fort Scott Mrs. and Miss Nc
Glashan, Mrs. Barton, Miss Strong
and Messrs. James and Walter Strong
of Moran and Miss Kingsland from
Nevada.
Q Presents were numerous and hand
some consisting of silverware, Hav-
iland china, cut glass, embroidery,
linen and others. The groom's pres
ent to the bride was a sunburst of
pearls and diamonds. Mr.. Jones'
friends associated with him in busi-
ness presented them with a beautiful
combination desk and cabinet with
chair.
They will make their home for the
present on West Madison avenue.
