LIFE.

The poets exclamation: 20 Life!
feel thee bounding in my VEINS" is a
Joyous one. Persons that can rarely or
never make it, in honesty to themselves,
are among the most unfortunate. They
do not liue, but erist; for to liue implies
more than to be. To live is to be well
and strong-to arise feeling equal to the
ordinary duties of the day, and to retire
not overcome by them-to feel life
bounding in the veins. A medicine that
has made thousands of people, men and
women, well and strong, has accomplish
ed q great work, bestowing the richest
blessings, and that medicine is Hoods
Sarsaparilla. The weak, rundown, or
debilitated, from any cause, should not
fail to take it. 1t builds up the whole
system, changes existence into life, and
makes life more Astounding. We are
glad to say these words in Its favor to
the readers Of our columns.

.HURKAMP| Us ROMANCE
Says Hornpipe Won Him His
Wife-Money Can't
Buy Him.

NEW YORK. November 2i-(SpeciaI)-
AT the uarden to-day was revealed
very pretty romance, in which a horse
largely figured, when a New York mil
lioaaire and prominent member Of the
Meadow Brook Hunt attempted to pur-
chase the prize high-jumper, Hornpipe
He realized for once that he had gone
up against sonetheing which his money
could not buy.
HornpiDe is the property of Mrs. Charles
II, Hurkamp, of Fredericksburg, Va.
who was Miss Marion Murchison daugh-
ter of Colonel and Mrs. Murchison, Of
west Fifty-seventh street. At her debut
in society some years ago she attended
the Madison Square Horse Show with
a party. Charles II. Hurkamp.S one OF
the most popular and best-liked man
from the South, was there witE his jump
ers and had his hunter Hornpipe with
him.
Their. as now. the horse was great
favorite with the audience. and Miss Muir
Gibson. falling in love with the animal,
cos,Sed her father to buy him. This re-
suited in several interviews with Mr..
Hurkamp, who was invited by Mr.. Muir
Gibson to call. He did SO, and continued
his visits at regular intervals. Some time
afterward his engagement to Miss MUIR
Gibson was announced. A quiet little
wedding at the brides home followed,
and the couple have since lived at the
Boscobel Stock Farm. where Hornpipe
was bred and raised.
Hornpipe is the champion heavyweight
jumper of the South. He has won over
seventy ribbons. To-day. when Mr.. Hur-
kamp was approached. he said: Sell
Hornpipe? Not for million dollars.
Why. man, Hornppe won me my wife.

The last day but one OF the Horse Show
brought out an attendance equallinS ina,
of yesterday, which was said to be one
of the largest in the history Of the 4Sa-
tionai Horse Show Assoc!a ton. Many
interesting events were contested, among
them one for cup for pai-s OF har-

THE WOMEN APPLAUD
Court Could Not Restrain
Them At Announcement of
Divorce Verdict.

KNOXVILLE, TENN. November H.
{Special)-Thc unparalleled scene of more
than 200 women refusing to restrain their
applause after the judge and bailif had
threatened to arrest them and fine them
for contempt of court, was the situation
at the conclusion of a divorce suit styled
Mrs. Margaret Wilson vs. John F. VIII
son, in this city to-day.
Another feature of the occasion was
that many of the women came to the
court room primarily to hear their own
causes for divorce, thirty-lve OF such suits
having been set for to-days docket in
the Knox County Circuit Court-a record
breaker, it is said, for the entire country.
Mrs Wilson charged her husband, who
until a few months ago was a very
prominent resident of this county. having
charge of suburban postofiice and own
ing large tracts of farm lands. with beat
ing and abusing her. numerically treat
ing her in other ways, and with being a
felon. Wilson was adiudged guilty Of
robbins the postoffice. which he had
charge Of until he was arrested FOR the
crime Of which he was convicted.
The hearing consumed the greater part
of the day. When the verdict was an
nounced, the large gathering Of women
who had been wrought up to high pitch
mediately burst into a glad shout Of ap-
plause, while the handclappins could be
heard for block away.
1t was several minutes before order
could be restored among the women. All
of the thirty-five cases for divorce set
for to-day We're disposed of with one ex-
ception.
