An unsentimental wedding in Kansas is
thus described by the Marysville News:
The ceremony was performed in Char
ley's business office. and was done up In
short order so that business was inter-
rupted only for a few minutes Charley
came from behind the counter in his shirt
sleeves and with his apron on and was
ready for the ceremony, but at the judges
request removed his apron and donned his
coat. The Judge tied the knot good and
solid. the groom kissed the bride. removed
his coat. put on his apron and resumed
business. The witnesses were Herman
Brenneke. Joseph Sedlacek and George T.
Smith. Somebody may want to know what
kind OF a business house this is whore this
marriage took place, but as this is Kansas
We will have 10 say that all we know
about IL is that IL is not a dry goods house.
The Bremen boys celebrated the occasion
with frecraekers, guns. tin pans and all
kinds OF musical Instruments. and Charley
took them IN and did the right thing by
them.

A citizen who has just returned from a
trip in Europe says that the sword pre-
scented to Admiral Dewey is a beauty, but
that in the matter OF downright gorgeous
ness II is rather a poor second TO that
given 10 Lord Roberts by the city Of Ports
mouth recently. The American, who has
examined both weapons. says that the one
owned by the little English soldier il
probably the c~ostliest thing Of its kind in
the world. The handmade blade is OF
English steel inscribed with all the en-
gagements in which Lord Roberts has taken
part. The grip is OF gold and carved ivory
the guard Of solid gold ornamented with
rubies, diamonds and sapphires, and the
scabbard is splendidly decorated.

orator, lis TO initiate our children 20 live

John Jerome Kelly. son OF the late John
Kelly, who was leader Of Tammany hall
next before Croker, became a member OF
the New York stock exchange a few days
ago and was initiated with a degree OF vio-
lenee which bore testimony TO his popu-
larity. The members daubed his face with
paint and made him dance as Indians dance
IN geography pictures. The reason they
hszed him that way was because his father
was a political Indian and because Mr..
Kelly expects 20 do whatever brokerage
business there is TO be done for the Tam
many Indians OF this day.

NEGRO DEMANDED
BREAKFAST.
Seated Himself at White Boarding
House Table and Insisted on His
Order

Seated Himself at White Boarding
House Table and Insisted on His
Order.
Bring me a breakfast; these were
the words of a negro as, unwelcomed,
he seated himself at a table at a West
Broad street white boarding house yes
terday.
The girl to whom the command was
directed informed the intruder that he
had no breakfast coming to him. But
the negro was insistenJ.
Bring me a breakfast, and bring it
quick" he commanded again. By this
time the girl was thoroughly fright
ened, and called for assistance. Two
young men responded, and when they
were informed of the situation, did not
take long to pitch the negro in the
street AS he struck the sidewalk, a
pistol fell from his pocket. They pick
ed the weapon up, handed it to the
negro and told him to quit the neigh
borhood.
The negro complied without more
ado. The occupants of the house did
not know how to account for the queer
actions of the negro. He was not
drunk, they declare, and did not act
as if he were crazy. He simply insist
ed on having a breakfast served, and
did not abandon hope until ne had
been thrown in the street.

The woman woke with a scream
when the razor was drawn across her
foot, but in the darkness could not
distinguish the man who ran from the
foot of her bed. Reed a few minutes
later showed up with slight cut on
the side of his head. 1t had been
made with a sharp knife or razor and
barely broke the skin. He declared
that he had been struck in the head
While asleep in an adjoining room.
1t was reported at police headquar-
tiers that man had cut his wife to
death in Collinsville and dozen uni
formed and plain clothes men were
hurried to the scene. The officer fol-
lowed the blood stains from the wom-
ans bed to Reeds room, and then into
the yard. No trace could be found of
the weapon, however.
Reed admitted that he had had trou-
BILE with his wife and that he had been
arrested for assaulting her. He insist
ed, however that he, too, had been
struck in the head. A physician ex-
amined the wound and said that it was
made with a sharp razor or knife, and
that the blade has only been drawn
gently over the scalp. The ARRAY &C.

All of the smart folk now quartered
at the Spa will attend the opening

one we'll worth travelling many miles
to witness. According to dope, Wa

sailing with such brave ones as Irish
Lad. Gunfire and Savable to go
against, nor will he find it an easy
proposition to dispose of Runnells and

LIVELY DAY AT TIE RESORTS


Although the mercury did not reach
for records yesterday it was hot enough
10 send the people out in crowds to
all of the resorts. Visitors found much
TO amuse and interest them, and the
prevalence of a fair breeze helped to
make things pleasant at the seashore
and on the salts. The highest point
reached by the stuff in the tube was
90 degrees, about 2 O'Clock, and after
that it dropped back to about 80 de-
grees at 8 o'clock. The lowest point
reached in the twenty-four hours was
rs degrees. This was cool enough, but
before the day had progressed to any
extent the quick silver was racing for
the top. The weather department had
promised showers during the day, and
this may have discouraged some peo-
pie from making preliminary plans
but after the, sun was up and there
was not sign of rain, the people got
over their apprehension and decided
quickly about the direction they would
take for the day or the afternoon.
At ThunderbOIt.
The attractive Casino at Thunder
bolt drew thousands during Sunday
and while a great crowd was content
to sit on the piazza or on the lawns
and listen to the music of the First
Regiment Band or stroll about and
enjoy quiet talks in some of the
many hooks that seemed so inviting.

TRIED TO CUT HIS WIFE'S THROAT:
NEARLY SEVERED HER FOOT
sleeping With Her Head at Foot of Bed Saved the
Life of Annie Bell Read

While asleep by the side of her
mother at No. 500 Paulsen street.
shortly after o'clock yesterday morn
ing. Annie Bell Caleb had her right
foot cut to the bone under peculiar
circumstances.
Caleb Reed, the woman's husband.
Is held at the police station house
charged by Detective Murphy with
having committed the assault. The
woman and the officers say that he
intended to cut her throat and would
have been successful had she not slept
in position different from her Gus
tom.
1t is alleged that Reed believed that
he was cutting his wife's throat when
he pulled sharp razor just above her
heel. 1t had been the womans habit
10 sleep with her head at the foot of
the bed, and Reed knew this. For
some reason Annie Amos, the mother
of Reeds wife, suggested that they
sleep with their feet at the foot of the
bed. and they retired in this fashion.

men and boys in the pool there were
generally crowds of onlookers enjoy

The band concerts were heard with
interested attention and the pictures

out at the Casino all of the afternoon

it had been a fine day. although not
a record breaker.
