The "Female Barber" Married

Arthur L. Carver, who came here from
North Haven about month ago after
etfecting the rather remarkable transfor.
nation from young woman to Young
man, is again attracting some local atten-
ton by figuring i'll the role of IL blushng
bridegroom. The Carver family moved +
BOothbdA some months ago, where youut
Carver feIl victim to the charms of a
young woman named Annie Saavev. Their
marriage occurred there recently and WIS
quite IA grand social affair. at which tLe
Methodist pastor, Rev. Mr.. Gahan orficiatp |.
The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs,
Morris Seavey and is said to be one of the
most highly esteemed young ladies in that
town Carver remarkable history was not
unknown at Boothbay, owing to the great
publicity 1t received about Il year ago, and
naturally enough the wedding caused a nine
days sensation i'll town. Carver came back
To Rockland some days ago and on Wednas-
day forenoon was re-Joined by the bride
She received very elaborate welcome at
the station, and the hackmen who have
looked for years upon the doings of newly
married couples are quite free to confess
that this exhibition of endearment was ace
high. A local reporter sought an interview
with the honeymOonStS at their home 13
Cottage street, Wednesday, but the mother
of Mrs. Carver shut the door while the
young man was still on the weather side of
it. 'We had enough of reporters last win
ter" was the only remark she vouchsafed
prior to closing the door.-Rockland Courier

increased their output largely and
the business has absor bed the elias

such an aceasiou," said s. M. Pre-

few years ago the Pennsylvani
Railroad hadabout so per cent. elas-

in.'
"There is no slack and there will
not be much chance to make any
radical improvement for at lie asst one
year. We are doing all we can tc
get things in shape and i4 the past
few days some headway has been
made. The terminals are congested
and there is lack Of room all over

Not only are the Pennsylvania
Railroad tracks filed with freight

BEYOND DOUBT
These Facts Must Convince
Every Wilmington
Reader.

The statement which follows tells
the experience of a resident of Will
mington. Incredulity cannot long
exist about this testimony because
it can be easily investigated.
Mrs. Anna l.. Farnan, No. 1889
Walnut. street, says:-"I employed
physicians and used many kinds Of
medicine but until l saw Doan' i
Kidney Pills advertised as a specific
for kidney complaint aud procured
a supply at Danforth's drug store I
was unable to obtain anything which
produced permanent results. My
ack ached and the pain frequently
radlated to tho hips. In addition
to the ordinary backache due to
disordered kidneys, weakness of
the kidney secretions was noticea-
bic. Doan's Kidney Pills relieved
mo greatly. I keep them continu-
ally in the house and take a. dose

ALL organized opposition to the
granting of the franchise for the
Pennsylvania Railroad tunnel into
New York City has been ended and
the franchise will be given. The
breaking of the "hold-up" is credit
ed to Leader Charles +. Murphy of
Tammany Hall, who has left orders
with the organization members of
the Board OF Aldermen to swing in
line for the franchise, because it is a
work of such vast Importance to
the interests of the city, that no
"hold.up" should he allowed. The
railroad company will be ready to
proceed with the immense scheme
soon after the PERMISSION is OBJ
tanned.
