Attorney Wood Otticiated and Tied the
 Knot Twice.


 Attorney F. l.. Wood played the part of parson in his office the other even lng An Italian couple deslred to be married Evidently they had an elaborate idea of the civil form of the marriage ceremony for they were sur prised at the rapidity with which MT Wood had made two of them. That's all,'' said the attorney when the cere- mony, which consisted of reading 9 few lines from the general statutes, was completed, you're married.' The happy couple'' wanted more of the marriage form, but what it was to be they did not seem to know. They left the office, but soon after returned with a friend who interpreted for them that they wished to be married with a ring. Attorney Wood was handed a brand new ring, with the price tag on it, by the bride. Once more he read the marriage ceremony from the general statutes and slipping the ring on the brides finger had remarked them. This seemed to suffice, for they left the office this time looking a really happy couple.

The nearest house was half a mile away and the occupants escaped serious injury. TeIe- phone inquiries received here indicate that houses were shaken fifteen miles away.
