Married Her sister at wIfe's
Request.
The Newport. News Morning Her
aid has the following account of a
marriage under very unusual circum-
stances:
A couple visited Old Point this
week who were the principal figures
In rather romantic wedding.
The man was Mr. ieorge ldmouze,
of New York city, and the woman
was his wife. Prior to her marriage
to Idmouze, week ago, she was Mrs.
Elizabeth Steiger, a widow, and the
only sister of Idmouze's first wife.
1t seems that Idmouze's wife died
last Tuesday, a week ago, in New
York city, after long illness. The
couple had one child, and during her
last days the sick woman worried
greatly over the child's future. She
feared that after her death strange
might take the child to rear il. FL
nally she made her husband promise
that he would marry her sister i'm
mediately upon her own death.
The promise was given, and We'd
nesday, q week ago, twenty-four
hours after the first wife's death, Mr..
Idmouze and the sister (Mrs. Steiger)
were made one.

Refuses to Pay $1,000 For
Wife.

WhenWilliam Highley, of Wabash,
Ind, thought his wife's life was
in danger he offered $1,000 for her
rescue. After she was saved he
repudiated his offer. A lawsuit en-
sued and Highley was forced to osettle.
In January. 1900, Rutherford and
Miller were driving along the bank
of q swollen creek near Mier, when
they were attracted by cries of help
proceeding from the stream. A
moment later Highley rushed up to
them and said his wife, in buggy,
was out in the creek and would
drown unless quickly rescued.
"l'll give you men 81, 900 if you
save her." he said. And Rutherford
and Miller, at the peril of their lives,
rushed in and brought the woman to
shore.
Subsequently they called on High
ley to make good his promise, but he
refused and assigned his farm to his
wife. Suit was then brought by
Rutherford and Miller and the case
was brought to Wabash county,
where Judgment was rendered for
the full amount.

But when things 90 wrong.

Loves to hear you sigh;
Turn smiling face upon her,
Quick the dame viii fly.
Smile little, smile little,
Ali along the road;
Every life must have its burden,
Every heart its load,
Why SIT down in gloom and darkness,
With your grief TO SUPP
As you drink Fate's bitter tonic,
Smile across the cup.
Smile upon the troubled pilgrims
Whom you pass and meet;
Frowns are thorns and smiles are BIOS

Oft for weary feet.
Do not make the way seem harder
By a sullen face,
Smile little, smile little.
Brighten up the place.
Smile upon your undone labor;

O'er his task wait wealth and glory;
He who smiles achieves.
Though you meet with loss and sorrow
In the passing years,
Smile little, smile little,
Even through your tears.

Rappahannock Lumber Trade.
Capt.Fred Crawford, of the schoon-
er Pearl, which arrived in Baltimore
Sunday from the Rappahannock
river with 10000 feet of lumber for
Knowles & Son, says that the lumber
shipments from the James, York
and Rappshannock rivers continue
very large.
"The lumber from the banks of
these three rivers and their tribu-
taries," Gays Captain Crawford,
"about monopolize the lumber trade
of bay freigbters Of wood and lum-
ber. Although for many years the
sawmills have been operating along
rivers and the lumA :. has been
leaving for Northern parts by the
millions of feet mouth, the supply
seems to be holding ont we'll. Most
of the forests along the waters edge
and for some miles inland have been
cut down, but the mills have fol-
lowed the woodmaa's axe and the
lumber now is hauled sometimes 90
miles to the river landings after
being sawed at the inland mills.
"This lumber trade gives employ
ment to hundred or so chesapeake
bay sailing craft. The shipments
continue throughout the year. Dur
ing the summer, when the oyster
boats are thrown out of their winter
work, they enter into the lumber and
wood carrying trade and freights
are lowered in consequence. Now
freights are somewhat higher owiag
to the scarcity of boats and prices
are running from $3.50 to $1.75 per
1000 feet from the Rsppahannock
and James rivers. Much wood is
also coming from these rivers and
many of the boats prefer this branch
of the trade.
"Pine wood is in demand and
selling at 81 cord. This has sent
freights up little Oak is scarce
and shipment Of mk lamber is rare.
The oak yet standing is young
growth and practically fit only for
railroad ties or piIing."

The Insular Possessions.

The Supreme Court decided that
the Philippine Islands are part of
the United States and the collection
OF duties on goods brought from
those islands to this country is illegal.
1t also decided the United States
has right to impose tariff duty
on products of one part of the United
States imported to another part, and
that Congress has authority to legis-
late in such matters.
With one decision for and one
against, the net result of the seven
decisions thus far given is four
against the Government, two in
favor and one compromise.
