danger of the short turn into

horse in circle. He had a clear
field, but not quite broad enough
for the momentum, and the bug
gy was turned completely ovel
alt hough Mr.. Turner escaped
without injury. Mrs. Turner
however, was badly frightened
as she saw the runaway pass di
rectly in front of the house, which
is about half way down South

HYMEN EAL.

NIT. Leroy w OOQ ana MISS Lud
G. Whittier were married early
last Tuesday morning.
The happy event took place at
the residence of Mr.. Isadore
Gelders where the ceremony
was performed by Rev. Carl w.
Minor about 8 o'clock.
The marriage was in the nat
ure of a genuine surprise to the
friends of the couple as only a
very few of their most intimate
friends had been appraised of
their intention to be married so
soon. It was generally under
stood among the friends of the
high contracting parties that they
contemplated getting married,
probably this fall. They were
not prepared for the announce
ment Tuesday morning when it
became generally known that
they were already married.
There is quite a tinge of romance
in the story that began with an
accident to the groom while out
hunting about six weeks ago in
which he lost several fingers of
his left hand by the accidental
discharge of his gun. He was
then a stranger to the bride who
happened to be boarding at the
Lee-Grant where he was stop
ping. The wound proved to be
quite a serious one and for sever
al weeks Mr.. Wood was confined
to his bed at the hotel with high
fever. Being a stranger in the
city naturally there was no one
to take an especial interest in
him although his wants were
looked after by the attending
physician, and the hotel manage
ment. The ladies of the hotel
sometimes visited his room while
he was seriously i'll and among
them was Miss Whittier who I'M
til that time was an entire strang-
er to him. On several occasions
it became necessary or at least
she found it necessary to look
after him and perhaps before he
was strong enough to be out of
his room both parties realized
that an unusual fondness had
sprung up between them. When
he was able to be out and talk bus
mess it seems they lost little
time in discussing their affairs
with possibly now and then a
reference to the tendency of their
affections. At any rate within a
short but eventful six weeks they
had resolved that their interest
in each other was sufficient to
warrant the partnership, which
eliminated as above stated last
T tuesday, morning. The groom
is travelling man representing a
Savannah house an d the bride is
the we'll known proprietress OF
the Bazaar in this city, where she
has successfully conducted for
three years or more a millin cry
and ladies furnishing store. She
is we'll known and highly esteem.

It is human nature essentially to tire of what We have much of and to prize most the fruit which hangs highest and is most difficult to obtain.
 Consequently, the woman who is chary of her favors, who is niggardly even with her caresses, will find that her lover values them all the more, and that his respect, as well as his af- lection. for her becomes the greater Tn proportion as he hopes rather than IS sure of her. It has long been a maxim that no man shall kiss and tell; nevertheless, the woman is safest by far of whom there is nothing which it were better it were left untold.-Helen Oldfield in Chicago Tribune.

Florence Roberts Twice Next Week.
Clyde Fitch, the author OF Inc
Frisky Mrs. Johnson which Florence
Roberts will present at the Walla Wal
la theater for her opening performance
on next Wednesday night, is the cleV-
crest delineator of female character
as found in society among our Anlerl-
can dramatisers and is great faVorlte
with the New York public. In this
new play he has eXcelled hlmsel1 as lar
as interest of story and dramatic
strength go and by many 1t IS consld-
cred the best play he has written. Inc
story is about d noble woman VINO IS
willing to sacrifice her own social po-
sition and happiness to save her sister
from disgrace and divorce 1t is cleV-
erly worked out and abounds in COM
edy.
THE Unwelcome Mrs. Hatch which
is announced for Thursday night is by
far the strongest, most artistic and
generally most acceptable play that
this brilliant artistic has ever produc-
ed A drama better suited to her own
style of work could hardly be imagln-
ed. Every chance is given her to por-
tray very heavy emotional acting as
we'll as picture all the noblest traits
of womanhood. The artistic quality
dominates the entire performance and
there are no false climaXes or forced
situations. 1t is just what the public
wants, a clean wholesome story, full OF
human interest, affording Miss Roberts
and her splendid company full scope
for their magnificent talents.
The sale of seats for both perform
ances commences at the box office on
Tuesday morning.

WANTS HIS RANK AGAIN.
Dismissed Captain In Civil War t
Ask for Reinstatement.

SPOKANE, Dec. 5.-Capt. G.. N.
Clark, a veteran of the civil war, and
comrade of John Brown, has applied
for reinstatement to the rank of cap
tain, and has asked Congressman Cush-
man to introduce bill in congress
for this purpose. He says President
Roosevelt has promised his signature
as soon as the bill passes. Mr.. Cush-
man will introduce the bill.
Clark was in many a Kansas fight
with John Brown and only missed be-
ing present at the Harper's Ferry fight
because he had been sent by Brown
with some escaped negroes into Can
ada and did not get back before the
Harpers Ferry trouble was over.
Clark is now an old man, but is still
vigorous. He is tall and straight as
an arrow, and the same fire flashes
from his eye as in the days when he
rode over the plains of Kansas and
Joined in the union raids in Missouri.
At that time he was captain Of Com
pany B Fifteenth Kansas infantry
volunteers. In the latter part Of the
war he was dismissed from the SER
vice. He explains the dismissal this
way:
MY company had been for two
days without bread, having nothing
but bacon all that ime. One of the
men told me there were two loads of
flour on hand. 1 took a couple of SER
geants with me and went to the COM
missary department and asked for a
sack of flour. was told that would
have to get orders from the command
ing general. I asked where he was,
and the commissary agent said he did
not know and didn't care. That set
tied it with me. I just leveled my gun
and said we would have some flour or
blow the top of his head off. I told
my sergeants to take the flour. For
that 1 was dismissed. It was just at
the close of the war;
Clark was born in Ireland. Recently
he has been night Waterman in the

"A Royal Prisoner" one of the ro-

MayerfOr White Whittlesey's tour of
the coast next season is a comedy

Florence Roberts is a stickler for
artistic detail in her productions. She
has just discarded $1,000 worth of
scenery prepared for The Frisky Mrs.
Johnson" and ordered it reprinted
because the color scheme did not ap-
peal to her. David Belasco changed
the costly hangings in his New York
theater three times before he was
satisfied. Some people may regard
these extravagances as purely eccen-
trio, but they are usually justified
when final results are attained.
