MARRIAGE OF GIRL
Who Once Ran as Butch" in
rlale Attire.

Rockport, Ky, Jan. l3.--May
Robertson, who donned boy S
clothes last summer, and ran as
news agent on the 1. c. r. r. as
well as performing several other
stunts 10 male attire, is married.
The romantic part of her makeup
came to the front even when she
promised to be kind and true and
obey, For she and the object of
her affections ran off from Roches-
ter to Central City, where they
were married. Miss Robertson
was known as the dining room girl
in Echols Hotel, when Bill earns
came in with a show. He boarded
at the hotel for three days, where
the erstwhile male impersonator
was serving the meals, and with
her boyish, conquettish ways, she
managed to capture the heart of
the manager and the two eloped,
although her father, who lives in
Echols, stated that he would have
had no objections, as he was rath-
er anxious for May to settle down.
She says she enjoyed the freedom
which parading in such costume
permitted. They will return to
Echols, where they will live.

Don't Worry.

This is easier said than done,
yet it may be of some help to con.
slider the matter. If the cause is
something over which you have nc
control it is obvious that worrying
will not help the matter in the least,
On the other hand, if within your
control you have only to act. When
you have cold and fear an attack
of pneumonia, buy bottle of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy and use it
judiciously and all cause for worry
as to the outcome will quickly dis
appear. There is no danger Of
pneumonia when it is used. For

LONDON CROWDS.
Not Nearly So Enthusiastic as Sim
liar Gatherings in Russia.

Not Nearly So Enthusiastic as Sim
liar Gatherings in Russia.
One of the things that most inn
pressed Gen. Wood, says the London
Chronicle, was the stolidity of the
London crowds. They disappointed
him. He had heard so much of
'British cheers" that he expected to
see all American outbursts thrown
into the shade. Instead of that he
found less show of enthusiasm, even
when the king and queen rode
through the city, than may
be met with any day in
the states at a baseball match.
This is a comment which
American visitors often make, and
not without reason. The London
crowd is more hearty and vociferous
than the French or German crowd,
but compared with an American
gathering on any big occasion, poll
teal meeting, for instance, civic
welcome to a victorious admiral, OF a
varsity football match, it is as Aber
waterfall to Niagara. On the other
hand, it is claimed that the Ameri-
cans do not really cheer, they yell.

Mrs. Johanna Soderholm, of Fer
gus Falls, Mimi, fell and dislo.
Gated her shoulder. She had a sur
geon get it back in place as soon as
possible, but it was quite sore and
panied her very much. Her son
mentioned that he had seen Cham
berlain's Pain Balm advertised for
sprains and soreness, and she
asked him to buy her a bottle of it,
which he did. 1t quickly relieved
her and enabled her to sleep which
she had not done for several days
The son was so much pleased with
the relief it gave his mother that he
has s11ce recommended it to many

cONcERNINe ROSE VALUES.
Some Recent Litigation Indicates That
They Reach High Figures.

They Reach High Figures.
The rose in popular estimation Is
the queen Of flowers, but apprecia-
ton Of it is generally left for the
poets expression, and its merits are
not usually threshed out in the dry
courts Of law. 1t is true that it has
been associated with one Of the
worlds most interesting civil wars,
but even there the part it played was
one of sentiment and symbolism and
we have waited until the utilitarian
age to have that sentiment translat-
ed into terms of commercialism. Per-
haps those terms have been appreci-
ated before this by those who have
sought to express themselves in floral
Language to friends or sweethearts,
especially in the winter season, but on
large scale, says the Boston Tran
script, we are enlightened upon the
money value of these gems Of the gar
den by a suit brought against the New
York, New Haven & Hartford, rail-
road by Miss Sarah B. Fay and Mich
ael H. Walsh, Of Woods Hole.
Some time in May last year the
company was burning some old build
ings at that place, and the defendants
claimed that their rose gardens, sit
uated across the way, were seriously
injured by the fire. AS the company
denied its liability. actions for dam
ages were brought and the cases were
heard before an auditor, who found
for Miss Fay and Mr., Walsh in sums
rising $5, 900 and $16, 900 respective
ly. Before the cases were reached for
trial in court the railroad company
paid $2O,000 in settlement.
Probably Robert NJ. Morse never
before argued a case in which he en-
ployed roseate language in such pro-
fusion as in this. Such names as
"debutante," Sweetheart" and "Lil-
liam Nordica" should give to things
precious in themselves, a higher
touch of sweetness and perfection
and, therefore, a higher value. To be-
gin with, half dozen experts gave
Mr.. Walsh's collection of roses the
highest praise, one testifying that it
was unsurpassed in this country"
and another that it was the highest
class he had seen of any exhibitor in
America without exception" Not
only the damage to these matchless
beds was considered, but the Gloss of
prizes which he might have got" and
the loss of advertising which he would
have had if the fire had not prevented
him from exhibiting.
1t is not often that even popular
and successful lawyers find their
paths strewn with roses and the court
room filled with a divine fragrance.
Yet we should think they would APP
preciate such an exceptional oppor-
tunity. The old detective in Wilkie
Collins exciting storyof "The Moon
stone" had a vocation which was to
find out the sins andcrimes ofothers;
but he had an avocation and a pas
sion, which was to grow roses and
breed new varieties. The value of
beauty has been rather indeter-
inmate. Trees and flowers have been
regarded as of small consequence
when they got in the wayo of what are
denominated the utilities, but they
are rising in thescale of public appre-
citation, and precedents like the pres
ent will lend encouragement to the
efforts that are making to increase and
protect them.

country, in which Count Cassni cites
as the reason for the unfriendly atii-

the Jews will no work in the felds
or engage in agriculture, but prefer
to be money lenders.
"The Jews OF Russia would gladly
engage in agriculture" said Rabbi
Caro-. "but they are not permitted to
Go so. 1 have studied up these mat
ters thoroughly and have received
news directly from the newspapers of
Germany, which are reliable.
''No Jew in Russia can own land
They are forced to belong to the

for them to gain actual possession Of
farms or gardens is prohibited by the
law of the land The few colonies Of
Jewish agriculturists which have been
