the following letter among their mail:
They had no correspondence on the

testimonial of this great medicine that
was ever printed, it came to them TN
solicited and unsought. The proprie-

never found it necessary to manufac-

never found it necessary by any trick
of advertising to promote mythical
men in far off places to positions

SPRUNG
A Surprise on Op-
position.
Change in BeaI Local
Option Bill
Leaves Out Section Relating to
Wards.
Especial Correspondence.)

Columbus, o., Feb. 1.-THE House
Committee OH Temperance met to con-
slider the. Beal Local Option bill and
Representatives of both the liquor and
the anti-saloon people were present,
but no action was taken as after the
liquor people heard the arguments adj
vanced by the antis' forces they ask
ed for one weeks time in which to
prepare their side of the case. This
request was granted by the commit
tee and another meeting will be held
Thursday night.
Representative Bcal, who introduced
the bill, sprung something of sur
prise on the liquor people by request
ing that the committee eliminate from
to ward local option, and leaving the
bill in such shape that it simply pro-
vides for local option in any munich
pality whenever the voters ask that
the saloon be excluded at an election
to be held whenever one-fourth of the
voters petition the Council for the
privilege of holding such an election,
but also stipulating that such election
shall not be held more often than ence
in two years.
Mr.. Beal said that the changes Were
suggested after much consultation. He
said that he believed that it would
make the bill stronger and bring to it
some friends and votes that it would
not get otherwise. On motion Of Gar
rison, of Brown, the changes were
agreed to.
Former Representative Thomas H.
Clark, of Columbus, the author of the
Clark Local Option bill, which was
defeated in the Legislature two years
ago, made an earnest and eloquent
plea in behalf of the bill.

PLANKE:D
Down His Dollar
Proudly.
Cuban Judge Wa
Bound To Take It.

DIR. J. L. Shlrey, well known ply
scian, of Akron, now il, Porte Principe,
Cuba, has written an interesting letter
to Mr. Augustus Warner of 20S East
Market st. DR.. Shirley gives an inter-
esting report of wedding which he at
tended Il short time ago. The groom
was a handsome young American who
was taking as his bride n fair Cuban
belle. AS Is customary Il notice of
the coming nuptials was posted in the
corridors of the Court House. There
is only one person in the province who
has a legal right to perform marriage
ceremonies and he is the Civil Judge
A short time before the interesting
event was to take place the young
bridegroom, who by the way is Bos-
tonian and Superintendent of the cleo
trio light plant, stepped around to the
judges office to get an idea of the fees
usually given SO that he could do the
handsome and proper thing on the mo-
mentous occasion. .'
| He was rendered well nigh speechless
when the judge informed him that if
he called at the house the fee would
be $42, this also in the face of the
fact that the residence of the bride
was only a few rods from the judges
office.
! At this juncture friend came to his
rescue and told him that il the bridal
party would call at his office the Judge
would be compelled to accept fee of
81. Then Cubans were treated to a
novelty. Heretofore only the very
lowest classes resorted to this method
of joining their fates, but the American
looked at his $42 and was not long in
making his decision, so at the appointed
time the bridal party in carriages re
paired to the Office of the civil judg,
and at the close of the service planket
down his dollar with the satisfaction
: man always feels wien getting even
Dr. Shirey says Porte Principe has ,
population of 10000, and is withou
waterworks, fire department, stree
railways or sewers.
The houses are for the most part con
structed of brick OF stone and in lie,
of glass the windows have iron bars
1t is only through these bars that ;
Cuban can see his lady love prior Il
her marriage. DR.. Shirey says tina
many Americans are marrying Cubal
girls, though they have neither fortun
nor beauty.
DR.. Shirey tells an amusing story o
