Two Views of a MARRIAGE.

These verses are to be read twice; once
as printed, then the first and third and
second and fourth lines. 1t Will be seen
that they give quite opposite meanings
accordingly as they are read.
The man must lead a happy life
Who is directed by his wife;
Who's freed from matrimonial chains
Is sure to suffer for his pains.
Adam OF old could find no peace
Until he saw a womans face;
when Eve was given for a mate.
Adam was in happy stat
In all the females hearts appear
Truth darling Of heart sincere;
Hypocrisy deceit and pride,
Meier known In woman to reside.
What tongue is able to unfold
The worth in woman we hold7
The falsehood that in woman dwell
Is almost imperceptible.
Fooled be the foolish man, / say.
who will not yield TO womans sway;
Who changes from his singleness
Is sure OF perfect blessedness.

KITTEN HAD NO FAvoRITEs.
Wall Street Brokers Had to Call Their
Bets Off.


Life Is not all stocks and bonds and
margins down in Wall street. The
other day a reporter opened the door
Of prominent brokers' Office, and
was startled TO behold three brokers
and two clerks on their knees on the
floor around a small but self-possessed
kitten. The kitten was sitting with
her tail coiled around her front feet,
paying not the slightest attention to
any of them, while two Of the brokers
purred irritatingly, the clerks meowed,
and the third broker fixed her with a
steely glance As the reporter paused
in the doorway and gazed in amaze
ment, the kitten arose languidly and
made her way between two of the
brokers over TO the waste basket,
where she began playing with bun
die Of paper Then explanations were
forthcoming I'VE found her outside"
one of the brokers volunteered, "and
got her some milk and brought her in
here. We were betting on whom she
would go to. The conditions were
that we could make any noise we
wanted to, but we were not allowed
to move or call her The bets are of"

In the New York Yacht club they
are telling a joke on member who
dropped anchor a few days ago on
the Navesink Highlands. He went
ashore with his guests and visited
at two or three cottages, but through
some blupder the electric launch re-
turned to his yacht withou. him. He
saw two men in overalls and flannel
shirts fishing from dory.
'eHey!" shouted the N. Y. Y. c. plu-
tocrat, IF you'll row me out to that
vessel I'll give you dollar"
"All right said the men. They row.
ed him out and took the dollar.
THANK ycu," he said, as he stepped
aboard. Il night need you fellows
again. If you hear pistol shot, will
you come for me?"
"Sure," said the sailor men.
Next morning they heard shot
and rowed out TO the yacht Another
dollar was offered and taken. Later
In the day the yachtsman was intro
duced to his two fishermen, dressed
In faultless flannels at a tennis club.
Drinks were ordered.

Fighting a Flood.
Did you ever see a man In a poker
game bet every cent he had on three
aces? Well, that is what w. 8. Car
son, superintendent of the Missouri
Pacific terminals at Kansas City, did.
But the stakes were bigger, probably,
than were ever played In a poker
game. He bet seven locomotives and
his job that the Missouri Pacific
bridge wouldn't go out-this In the
face of the fact that seventeen
bridges across the Kaw had already
gone. And he won Now the Missouri
Pacific has the only bridge across the
Kaw at that place. When Mr. Carson
saw that his company's bridge was
likely to go the way the other went
he took a desperate chance. He de-
cided to weight the bridge down with
Mogul locomotive !. Seven of them,
representing .ue of $125000, were
run out on the trembling structure.
He knew. as did everybody else. that
IL the bridge went the engines would
go with it, but he took the chance
and took it alone, for the city was
cut off from communication with the
other heads Of departments, and there
was no one to consult with. Had the
bridge and engines gone, his Job
would have gone, and with 1t large
share Of his reputation as a man Of
sound judgment. But the plan was a
winner, and now his stock is away

special value that will be remember
ed in the history of our Grange.
Owing to limited room in our hall
for accommodating our lodge in its
banouets, socials and entertainments
an urgent need of more room seemed
a necessary feature for the welfare of
our Grange, and after considerable
talk and investigation, all hands
were turned for new banquet hall
II was realized from the first that a
building fund was the first of inn
portance in promoting the work now
at hand.
Aside from socials, a fair was sug-
pested as another fine way of raising
the necessary fund and each and all
have loaned helping hand to make
this fair what We all realize as a
grand success.
The fair assistance was far from
being limited as pany articles from
far and near wersent, which helped
to make q fine display as well as
swell the treasur
To those who bve SO kindly aided

tinually and in yrs to come
The weather ohe afternoon and
evening seemed ranged just right
as the sun sent its warm rays to
make pleasant Inlay and the even
ing was as well pvided
The hall was ecorated with au-
; tumn leaves, ced festooning, flow
ers, lace draperyd a profusion Of
red white and blu1unting.
The booths wlt were arranged
{ formed pretty fere of the dec

LYNCHINd IN JOPLIN.
Murderer Of Policeman T. c. Leslie
Lynched Wednesday Afternoon.

Thomas Gilyard, the negro who
killed Policeman T. C. Leslie in
Joplin Tuesday night was captured
northeast of Joplin the next day,
Wednesday, and taken to the Jop-
lin Jail and locked up. A mob at
once formed, and despite the ap-
peals of the officers to let the law
take it's course, the mob battered in
the Jail doors and took the tremb-
ling wretch out and hung him to a
telephone pole.
Not content with this, the mob
went down in the notorious north
end and burned several houses &C.
cupied by negroes. Hundreds of
the negroes left Joplin and went to
surrounding towns.
OF course, mob law is to be de.
plored, but in this instance-well,
we have not been asked for an opin.
ion, and therefore have none to
offer.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

At S:45 o'clock Tuesday morning
occurred the marriage of Miss Mat
tie Myrtle Snelson to Mr.. Chas. S.
Morrison, the ceremony being per-
formed by Rev. AL Jones, at the
home of the brides parents in the
south part of the city. The Snelson
home had been prettily decorated
for the occasion and was a bower
of beauty.
Quite a number of friends we're
present, as was also numerous rel
atives of the contracting parties,
and the bride was the recipient of a
large number of tokens of esteem.
Immediately after the ceremony
had been performed, refreshments
were served, after which the newly
married couple departed on the
1925 Frisco for Quincy, ILL.,, where
the groom will take a position with
a big milling company and work
at his trade-that of miliwright.
The groom is son of Mr.. aud
Mrs. J. w. Morrison of this city and
is a most exemplary and trust
worthy young man.
The bride is the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. A. C. Snelson. For about
three years she has been sales
lady at Cooper's. Matte" az all
her friends know her, is perfect
lady and will make her chosen hus-
band an excellent helpmate. She
is a thoroughly practical and sens
ible young woman, and her head is
not full of society foolishness. She
has not been raised up that way.
The NEWS joins host of friends
in wishing the newly welded cou-
pie health, wealth and happiness.

coon by that name is known here.
Two years ago two Joplin police
men, Bert Brannon and Charles
Sweeney, were killed near the scene
OF Tuesday nights murder and the
murderers have never been cap
tured. What Joplin should do is to
make every suspicious character
move on. No town is safe where
hoboes are permitted to linger. If
they won't make themselves scarce.
forty feet of three-qusrter inch rope
