SOUTHERN WEDDING FEAST,
Brief DsaNriptInn of as Aate-Bedlsn pesflvRi in Virginia by
 a PraacAer.

A Virginia preacher who had the good fortune to be born in the good old days writes to local paper of the old-time wedding. He describes an old-fashioned wedding supper in this fashion, says the Nashville American.
 Let me tell you about it-that snpper when Miss Nancy got mar sried! The table was about 25 feet long: 1t stood in the hall of the Fsig house. which was about 40 by Gn feet. About the center of that table. in a large game dish, was a pig, cooked whole, with an apple in his mouth. Near each end of the table was a large turkey. Midway between the pig and the turkey were two large pound cakes, gaudily em- hossed with name :Nancy' on one of them and EFT on the other. Near the center and near each end of the table were stacks of butter IS inches high, curled and frizzled in the most approved style. There were smaller cakes, fruits and confections in abun. dance. We did not know about boiled custard in our settlement and over on a side table was about three gal Ions of syllabub. They said that il would keep the cake from making us sick. Perhaps it did; at least do not remember that any of us were sick when Miss Nancy got married"

FIRST BOOK OF LAWS.
Statutes Drawn Up by King of Baby. Ion Five Centuries Before
 Laws of Moses.

The well-known assyriologist. Dr.. Hugo Winckler, says the London Ex- press, has published an account of the legation promulgated by King Amraphel of Babylon, which, so far as is known at present, was the first book of laws ever given to the world. King Amraphel lived 2,250 years B. O., and is mentioned in the bible as a contemporary of Abraham, so that his statutes were drawn up fully five centuries before the laws of Moses. They number 2s2, and contain the following:
 "If woman who sells beverages gives bad value for the money paid her, she shall be thrown into water.
 eff wife be a spendthdift, or if she otherwise neglects her duties, her husband may put her away with out compensation; but if man put away his wife for no other reason than that she has no children, he shall return her whole dowry.
 ''If betrothal be rescinded, the man shall pay the woman compensa- tion.
 "A widow with grown-up children may not marry again without permis. sion from 2 judge"

TEN ICHI's JAPANESE.

It has been said that the Japanese can do about everything that can be done in the way of acrobatics and gym nastics, and it can be added. after see ing what Ten Ichi's troupe did at the Jacques yesterday that nothing seems impossible to them in the way of illu- sions and necromancy. The entertain ment given by this troupe of Japanese wonder workers is certainly most extraordinary one. and they succeeded yesterday, as they have everywhere that they have appeared in America, in completely mystifying the spectators.

HELD oNLY-PAIR OF THREEs.
How Little Man BlufTed the Late
 Tom Reed in n Poker Game. F.

The late Thomas B. Reed was, with did have much nerve at poker, ac- cording to New York Times writer. A few may still recall a little game in a back room in Portland, when the limit was a dollar and certain sharp-faced little man sorely vexed the great speaker of the house. The little man seemed to be getting all the bad cards, which he threw down with exclamations of disgust. At last he made bet and all the play CTS dropped out except MT. Reed, who eyed his own three aces com placently and raised him heavily. The little man snickered and came back with an equally heavy raise. MT. Reed opened his round little mouth, blinked his little black eyes and gur- gled with uneasiness; but he showed his chips onto the pile and put. an extra red on top. The little man covered the red, then deftly swept the whole of his stack on the board and eyed the great man with a su- perior smile. MT. Reed lurched back in his chair, looked at his opponent severely for moment, and-quit. Then the little man spread out 8 pair of trays and gathered in his winnings.
 ''why. confound you, sir" roared the speaker of the house, "you ought to join the senate lobbyi"

It is always an interesting experience to attend a Kilties concert for the req son that the program is a composite one, including in addition to the band selections, which are mostly of popu- lar character, bagpipe playing, broad sword exercise, Highland dancing, choir singing and other novelties. It is this varied assortment of features that makes the Kiltie's so popular and their entertainments so enjoyable. Prices are 9, 35, 50, 75 cents and $1.

WHEN WE WE'RE TWENTY-oNE.


 The appearance of William Morris and his splendid company in ''When We Were Twenty tomorrow evening at Polls, as benefit for John J. Splain and Harry E. Parsons, will offer probably the last dramatic enter tainment of this season, the bookings that are to come being mostly musical comedy It marks, too, the last ap- pearance of MT Morris in the role of Richard Carewe which his beautifully artistic work has lifted to the level of an American dramatic classic. It is safe to say that MT Morris has never, during all his brilliant work as leading man for Charles Frohman's stock company or in his other creations. given an impersonation that will live as long in the memory of those who have seen 1t as his creation of Dick Carewe. No higher praise could be given it than to say, as the Boston, Springfield, Hartford and Waterbury papers have said. that it is more deli cateIy artistic and more perfectly shad- ed than Nat Goodwin's conception of the same role Truly those who see MT Morris in this part tomorrow evening will enjoy treat that they will remem- Der for many a day, and in addition they will have the pleasure of remem- boring that they have rendered mark of appreciation to two very popular and painstaking workers for the welfare of local theater patrons.

j. Finley Johnston, of Ayl

choice of the meeting for chair
man, and Prof. b. n. Palmer, of
Belfast, and Calvin A. Foster, of

The roll call revealed that 21 out
of the "a delegates were present.
a motion was made to the effect
that where but one delegate in Il
township was present he should be
permitted to cast two votes. Mo-
tions came thick and fast along
about this time, but the one seem
ingly of most importance to the
convention was that to vote by
ballot. The motion carried. 1t
was decided to nominate the tick
ct in the following order: Asso-
ciate Judge, District Attorney,
Jury Commissioner.
Ex-Judge Peter Morton, of Tod
township, nominated Thomas B.
Stevens, of Tod township. for AS
sociate Judge. His was the only
name presented, and the nomina-
tion was made by acclamation.
The Office of District Attorney
went begging'for a candidate, and
the best that could be done for it
was to name a committee to fill
the vacancy.
Names for Jury Commissioner
were then asked for. These were
placed in nomination.: Bennett A.

A. Deavor and Harry Stevens, of
Taylor. The count of the ballots
was as follows:

were now in order. DIR. A. ID.

the claims of William Grissinger,
OF Tod township, as the leader to

John b. Runyan, of Ayr, also had

SAD DEATH OF YOUNG BRIDE
Young Wife of DIR. McClain Expires
Afier Two Days Illness of
Diphtheria.
HUSBAND VERY ILL OF SAME DISEASE

a sad severance of the bonds
which united the hearts of DR..
Harry &. McClain, of Hustontown,
and Martha Buckley, of Norris
town, was enacted Thursday, when
the latter, Il bride of but two brief
months, succumbed to malignant
attack of dlphtheria. She was i'll
only two days. Her remains were
prepared for shipment to her for
mer home, and on Friday the
young physician accompanied the

death of his wife that he could not
accompany he body to the grave.
His condition Is critical.

"Her remains were brought here

husband accompanied the caskct,
and on his arrival he was so i'll that
medical assistance was summoned,
and the physician pronounced his
illness malignant diphtheria. The
Buckley house is quarantined, and
he is in Il critical condition. One
lone cab, with the parents of the
bride, followed her remains to the
cemetery this afternoon.
