A Plucky Couple.

Cupid's strong and sharp ar
row could not be stopped, in the
case of Miss Carrie Shoemaker
and David Wolff, by the extreme
cold weather snd heavy drifted
SHOWS of a couple of weeks ago.
Amid a fierce snow storm, with
the thermometer at zero, and the
wind blowing at the rate of forty
miles an hour, the two left their
homes in Am mberson Valley on
foot and wended their way to Rox-
bury, a distance of twenty miles
to the parsonage of the Methodist
Episcopal church, where they
were married by the Rev. j.
Green. The two spent the uight
with Mr.. and Mrs. A. G. McGee
near Roxbury. The next morn
ing they arose bright and early
and started for their home in
ANDERSON Valley. The snow had
drifted during the night and
made travel almost impossible,
but the happy pair fought their
way through and reached the
home of Mrs. VOLTS parents,
where a dinner was awaiting
them. The couple were compel
ed to walk a great distance on the
top rail of the fence, through cuts
where the drifted snow made
travel impossible. Mrs. Wolff is
one of the most popular young
ladies of Anderson Valley, while
Mr.. Wolf is a young man OF
thrifty habits.-Franklin Reposi'

FIGHTING p0LYGAMY.
A Former Fulton county Pas
tor after Senator-eIect
Shoots Scalp.

Last Thursday Senator Bur-
rows presented a formal protest
IN Congress signed by Rev. j. L.
Leilich against the admission of
Senator or-elect Smoot of Utah.
Rev. Leilich was pastor on the
Three Springs charge about ten
years ago, and served the Metho-
dist churches in Wells Valley
He is now in charge of Methodist
missions in Utah and resides in
Salt Lake City. He is the repre-
sentative of the Minister'S Asso-
citation. He declares that Smoot
is a polygamist and now has a
plural wife, although he fails to
give the maiden name of the lady.
His charge on this point is as fol-
lows:
MARRIAGE IN SECRET RECORDS.
"That the said Reed Smoot is a
polygamist, and that since the
admission of Utah into the Union
he, although having a legal wife,
married a plural wife in the state
of Utah, and has lived and cohab-
tied with both legal wife and his
plural wife as occasion offered ;
that the only record of such plu-
raj marriage is the secret record
made and kept by the authorities
of the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter Day Saints.
"Your protestant respectfully
asks that the Senate compel the
first presidency and the quorum
of the twelve apostles and the
said Reed Smoot to produce such
secret record for consideration. y
Mr.. Lelich also asserts that
president Joseph F. Smith, OF
the Mormon Church, is living in
open polygamy and has had q
child born to him by his 'plura
wife as late as 1893"
And also that "President Lo
renzo Snow lived and died in the
practice of polygamy and polyga
nous col abitation, and that his
plural wife, Minnie Jensen Snow
bore him a child as late as thu
winter of 1867"

MORE RAILROAD TALK.
One of Latest Stories Told About
the Old South Penn Rail
road and its Promoters.

hS iDdlUiuAoIc duo CiiiO IidS
surveyed line from the old South
Penn located in Fulton county,
east through Franklin, Adams,
York, Lancaster, Chester and
Delaware counties, into Philadel-
phia county, to the present loca.
tion of the Philadelphia division
at point only a few miles south
of the city of Philadelphia. This
fact, says the Pittsburg Post,
came to light recently corrobor-
ated by one Of the company's Of
ficlals. The line is intended to be
come part of the Baltimore and
Ohio's new road over the noun
talns to the Atlantic seaboard.-
Heretofore 1t has been supposed
that the projected new road would
not extend east of the north and
south center of Fulton county,
and that the eastern terminal of
the line would be at Hancock, on
the West Virginia shore of the
Potomac, where a junction would
be formed with the present main
line by means of the surveyed
route running south out of Fulton
county into Washington county,
Maryland, and thence across the
Potomac to the old Second divis-
ion. This much of the general
plans, as outlined many weeks
ago, is correct, but in addition to
all this it has been learned from
an excellent source that surveys
have been continued eastward
through the counties named to
the present Baltimore and Ohio
locations south of Philadelphia. -
1t is said that this route is thirty
miles shorter then the present
main line of the Pennsylvania be-
tween Pittsburg and the Quaker
City.
According to these plans the
proposed road to Hancock is only
intended as an outlet to Washing.
ton and Baltimore and the road
east from Fulton county, which
is planned to branch off from the
Hancock line, is more particular
ly for Philadelphia and New York
traffic. In other words, a dou BILE
tract road is planned to extend
east from Dexter, twelve miles
east on the Pittsburg division, to
Fulton county, where a junction
will be formed, one branch lead.
ing to Hancock and the other
leading direct to Philadelphia.
The Philadelphia survey leads
out of Fulton county, either by
the gap in the Cove mountain not
far from Knobsville or else by
tunneling through Tuscarora
mountain. The line runs close to
Chambersburg and north of Get
tysburg. The Susquehanna river
if the road is built, will likely be
spaned not far from Skenk' Fer
ry. Detailed and absolutely ac
curate information is not readily
procurable, one reason being that
premature publication raises'the
cost price of the rights of way
Alternate lines have been run al
some points and provisions made
for meeting conditions as they
develop. Enough, however, has
been learned to show conclusive
ly that aside from a new line ovel
the mountains to Hancock, a line
running east through the south
ern tier of counties in Pennsyl
vania has been planned to tap the
Baltimore and Ohio location not
far from Philadelphia.

change was made-Jacob had ia
ken his leave from things tempo
raj. Men stood amazed at the
solemn announcement, only to be
informed once more of the inexo

vows and was thereby admitted
