of romance which dates back several

war the two young people were engag-
ed, but the breaking out Of the trou-
BILE and Mr.. Pitt joining the army

teers were mustered out he, started out
in business in Manila. A few weeks
ago he received Word that his bride
to-be was coming but offothe transport
Sumner Whenbshes Safflier was de-
layed, and the residents of Manila did
not know the reason, there were all
kinds of rumors 4oatfhg around re-
garding her alleged non-arrival. Mr..
Pitt was naturally very much con-
cerned and when the big transport
dropped anchor in the bay yesterday
he was one of the first Manilites to
go up the gang way,
"The ceremony last night was wit
messed by only few personal friends
of Miss Van Hoorebeke and Mr.. Pitt.
George Wolf, of the firm of Castle
Bros, Wolf & Sons, gave the bride
away. Chaplain Silver officiated and
was the first to congratulate the hap
Ply pair.

1t was the same old story at Butte
yesterday. Klopf's hirelings have
got their winning habit on and moth
ing-not even the hard-hitting Miners
can stop them. Spokane was again
victorious by a score of Z to 4. HUI
seman, as Is his custom, fattened his
batting average by swatting the
horsehide for three hits, two of them
doubles, out of five times to bat.
Ferris, the plucky little second base
man, who is playing with a finger
that's sorer than a boil, was again
at his post on second base, his trans
fer to the center garden in the second
game having thrown the entire team
out Of gear. He brought in three
of the runs scored yesterday. Time
and again the Butte smoke-eaters
had men perched on first, second and
third when Dammann and his left
wing would steady down and the
champions were left on their respect
i've perches. It's nothing new for
Dammann, however. It's a habit with
him. Tozier, the new twirler from
st. Louis, was given a tryout by
Butte and Gussie Klopfs pets gave
him his baptism of fire proper.
The score:
