New Way to Marry People.

An elderly minister is fond of telling
of "break" he once made at double
wedding of two sisters. 1t was ar
ranged that the two couples should be
married with one ceremony, the two
brides responding at the same time
and the two bridegrooms doing the
same. There had not been any previ-
Gus rehearsal, as the minister had
come long distance and reached the
church but few minutes before the
time for the ceremony. All went we'll
until it came time for the minister
to say: "And now / pronounce you
man and wife" 1t suddenly became
obvious to the minister that the usual
formula would not do in the case Of
two men and two wives, and he could
not think of any way of making ''man"
and ''wife" plural in the sentence. In
his desperation and confusion he lift
ed his hands and said solemnly: "And
now pronounce you, one and all, hus-
band and wife!"-Lippincott's Maga-
zine.

Equally Conclusive,

Judge Horace Russell tells the fol-
lowing story of the late Irish ''bar-
rister," Tom Nolan: The barrister
was flushed with oratorical enthusi-
asm as he started in to argue from
his brief, point by point, before the
late and equally eminent jurist, Chief
Justice Shea, OF the marine court. The
thunder of the barrister's voice ceased
to reverberate for the moment as he
rested after delivering point No. L.
Denied" came from the chief Justice
of the marine court. Thin said the
barrister, rising, "Ithrust your honor
will hear me with patience during me
prisintation of point No. 2, for it is
equally conclusive" Detroit Free

A young officer had been ordered
to the Philippines. According to a
western paper, he received the fol.
lowing telegram from the war de-
partment at Washington:
'You can go to New York, and

The officer replied: Would prefer
to cross Pacific direct"
Then the department telegraphed

the ring until he had caught the ras-

the ring until he had caught the ras-
cal, and, as I was beginning to real
ize the odium attaching to our names,
1 reluctantly agreed that he should
not appear that night. He stayed
around the tent all afternoon looking
distract, pale, and, for him, venomous-
ly disagreeable.
II think that night was one OF the
best we ever had so far as the at
tendance was concerned. I was
obliged, at Sims solicitation, to an
nounce that 'Dumpy Humpy' (his ring
name the famous clown would be un-
able to appear an account of a sud-
den indisposition. Sim was such
stickler for fair dealing he'd have re-
turned every dollar taken in if the
people had asked it. But it was a
good-natured crowd and they stayed
for the show. We never had less
trouble. Every performer seemed to
be on his or her mettle and even tho
trained animals did their tricks with
extraordinary success. Mile. Du Bar
ry was Just at the climax of her
thrilling bareback act-the piece de
resistance of the whole show, when
1 heard the familiar yell of 'Dumpy
Humpy,' the clown, as he galloped
furiously into the ring. In flash
I realized that one of two things had
happened-either he had already
caught the bunko man or he was try
ing to surprise me with novelty of
his own invention. For, clinging to
the tail of his mule, came a stranger
in street attire, tugging like
demon as if to stop the beast. Every
thing happened so quickly and so un-
expectedly that I didn't have time to
think that Sim was running the effect
of his wife's act.
"The mule nearly collided with Mile.
Du Barry's charger just in front of
the reserved seats and the next thing
I knew the stranger had dragged the
clown down into the sawdust and was
choking him. Mademoiselle screamed
and galloped out of the ring. The
spectators laughed loud at what
seemed to them the clowns grotesque
entree, but when I pushed into the
cloud of dust and sawdust raised by
the scuffers l found the town police
man slipping pair of handouts Oh
nv partners wrists. s. .-
"'Here's your bunko man. he
grinned, standing up and stripping
Sim of his motley. Here's the shells
and hers three cards, and here's
'sThe officer pulled out each article
as he spoke. Here's the flash roll, and
oh, look here! Do you want any
more evidence? Here's his false mus
tache and his wig!'
ssThe audience wanted to lynch the
poor clown when they began to see
that he was in the hands of the law,
but we slipped poor Sim out through
the dressing tent and left town that
night. l never saw him again, but I
understand that his beautiful wife
stuck to him and that they have been
doing well without working ever since.

Whom we hope again to meet.

Or word we've heard them say,
All comes back again in mem'ry,
Making light some darksome day.

Down the bright ard shining way.

So that when ", too. shall Gle,

BIG REWARD FOR SUTTON

1t issaidthat J.P. Dunn, who came mys-
teriously to st. Francis hospital two
weeks ago with a bullet wound in his
groin thought to be ten days old at the
TINS. is in a precarious condition and
may oie. He has not been under guard
in the hospital as stated. his condition
being such thSt it was not necessary.
When Harry S,lttoT read in the Eagle Of
the man at the hospital with the old
wound he smelt suspicion and began an
investigation. de had heard that Sway
back George, alias Oklahoma George.
ais George Durham, had been TO see
Dunn at the hospital and that fact caused
him 10 act. promptly, knowing that Dun
ham had a BID record. He searched and
found Durham and threw him into jail.
keeping him there in strenuous confine-
ment for six days before putting his name
on the police records, which was done
last Saturday.
Durham was put through fearful sweats
by the police, but he has positively re-
fused givin,: them any information.
If you people are my friends he
would say to the police, you would not
throw me into jail without cause and not
being my friends, 1 have no information
for you"
But the police got a clew that Sway
back George might have been concerned
in the bank robbery at North Enid, some
time ago, and In other robberies and they
kept their man. And he kept his silence.
M. Sutton knew him and knew that he
was a crook. He thought, perhaps, that
he might have been concerned IN the
bank robbery at GAINESVILLE, Arkansas.
About this time he began to think that
Dunn might also have been in that bank
robbery and got his wound there. He be-
oF
nised him. also, as not too white eff soul.
Dunn made this explanation. he said
he was a married man and become in
volved with another wamon, who, in a
lit of jealousy. shot him. He remained
away from home, thinking the wound
would get better. and hence avoid expla-
nations This was the story he told and
told plausibly, but plausibility does net
always go with Detective Sutton. He still
kept watch on him or rather on his con-
dition.
The sheriff ct Clarksville was killed.
but other officers said that he evidently
had shot enc OF the robbers. as a trail Of
blood was left after them. The reward for
the GAINESVILLE robbers being about $500.

things. He quietly wrote to Arkansas

Dungeon and there was mutual recogni-
