to see the part he had to play.
Il secured a license before spoke to
you,' said Lee to the clergyman.
Here it is.Now. Margaret, if you are
ready. The witnesses will please keep
quiet and remain standing"
Margaret came out of the house and
stood before the minister hand in hand
with Lee. who used his left to keep the
rife pointed in the direction of the wit
nesses.
Under these conditions the marriage
ceremony was performed. When it had
been concluded Lee kissed his wife
hastily, as the rifle had to be kept on
the rest of the family, and then began
to plan a retreat. The minister was
told to drive the carriage to the door
and Mrs. Lee was handed in. Then
Lee entered and advised the witnesses
to march down the road a hundred
yards in front of the bridal procession.

THREE EELs AND A GIRL.
The Causes of Commotion in Bathtub
in Dark Room.

The Causes of Commotion in Bathtub
in Dark Room.
There lives family on Delaware
place with a palate for eels. AS often
as twice a week the head of the family
carries home from the Ash market two
or three of the slippery, snake-like
wrigglers. He usually returns home
late at night, and 1t is customary to
put the cells in a bucket Of water, where
they are kept until morning.
In the front rooms of the apartment
where lives this family are two young
women from Indiana, who, during their
sojourn in the city, are boarding with
the family Of eel eaters. Each of the
young women has eaten Of the cooked
food, but neither of them ever saw al,
eel. ..A. e. 81
One night last week the man of the
house took home three cells. After
stumbling about the darkened house in
futile search for bucket he hit upon
another plan. He tiptoed to the bath
room and turned the cells loose in the
bathtub.
AS soon as the house was quiet the
her dreams, stole out of her room with
a heavy crash towel thrown across her
arm, and proceeded to the bathroom.
The room was dark and she could find
no matches. Not caring to search for
match she decided to battle in the dark,
and accordingly turned on the hot and
cold water. When the tub was well
filled the young woman stepped in.
The hot water had put life into the
slippery cells, and when the young wo-
man got both feet into the tub the
creatures slid about her ankles and
across her feet.
That was all she remembered. With
one hysterical scream she began kick
ing furiously and crying for help. Her
elder sitter, fearing she was being muir
dered, ran to the bathroom, but found
| the door locked. After couple of mo-
ments had elapsed, the girl imprisoned
| In the bathroom fell out of the tub and
| managed to unlock the door. Not hear
ing the anxious questions, her fright
ened sister was crying at her, she
| fairly flew down the hallway, clad only
\ in the darkness.
! The whole family was aroused by the
| screams and lights f1ared UP in every
apartment in the big building, The
women of the house and the elder sis
| ter, after fifteen minutes work, sue
ceeded in calming the frightened
| bather
| What in the world is the matter, sis
| ter?" asked the elder one.
"Oh, horrors?" shuddered the hyster-
ical girl, "the bathtub is full of
| snakes!"
BY this time the head of the family,
I clad in pajamas, was tottering up and
down the hallway choking IN q. spasm
of laughter. He stamped his feet, hit
his head agaist the wall, and at last
controlled himself sufficiently to light
the gas In the bathroom and called his
| wife to take look at the room. The
| floor was flooded with water and two
of the cells were wriggling upon the
| floor. the Chicago Inter-Ocean.

that honor. I believe in the fellowship
of the saints, but believe also in
sanity fellowship. 1 am thankful that
I am living in this marvellous republic;
I am thankful also that am a Chris
tian and that am Baptist Christian.
Anybody in New England who is of this
denomination never need to apologize
for his religion. New England ground
was sodden with the blood of the saints
who dared to be Baptists. Some of the
papers are saying that it is a blot on
our civilization that we take life in
punishment for murder, and yet less
than three hundred years ago the laws
of these colonies made it so that all
Baptists should be banished. We
should hold our heads high and be
proud of the achievements of the Bap-
lists
Mr.. Devine then spoke of the work of
the Baptists of this state and of the
state convention work, 1t was an ex-
cellent meeting and greatly enjoyed by
all who attended.
