REMAINS OF MONSTER BIRD.
Valuable Discovery Made in Southern
Part Of Argentine Republic
Larger Than the Dodo,

Brief information of the discovery
in Patagonia, or rather, of the south
ern part of the Argentine Republic,
of part OF the remains of an extinct
bird that. in size, outrivals any Of the
forms known to science, either living
or extinct, has just reached the chief
ornithologlsa of the Smithsonian IN
stitution, who regards the discovery
as one OF the first Importance. The
details thus far received are to the
effect that a scientific party explor-
ing along the eastern foothills OF the
Andes range unearthed from the
strata of the tertiary age the skull of
what they at first took to be a gigsn-
tic bird of prey, but on subsequent
examination they unearthed other
parts that caused them to change
their first view and reach the conclu-
sion that the bird must have been a
water fowl. The size of this extinct
bird, watch the discoverers named the
"phorlrachis," is, according to the
reports. something amazing, it having
been at least fourth larger than the
"dodo" Of Madagascar, bird now ex-
tinet, but which until the finding of
this Patagonian monster held first
place for size in the list OF birds hv-
ing and extinct. The government or
n;thologists are anxiously awaiting
further details Of this interesting dig

A special to the State from Barn.
well last. week says Herbert Sanders
was shot Saturday, July 4th, by Sea-
born Moore, and it is said the wound
is fatal. 1t is said there was dance
at Mr.. Lewis Creech's, near kline's,
and during the dance these young
men had some unpleasantness, which
resulted as above. Full particulars
cannot be gotten at this writing.
Moore is in jail, having surrendered
himself to Sheriff Creech. Monday
night 10 masked men went to the
jail, where they demanded Moore, and
being told by the sheritf's daughter
that he was atchurch with her father,
the sheriff, they then demanded the
keys Of the jail, which she told them
she would get for them from the next
room. and On returning from the room
she came armed and drawing j loaded
wea pom she presented it and deied
them, thereby running them away.
In short time the sheriff returned
from church and at once got up Il
guard for the jail consisting Of the
mayor and many of the best citizens.
Nothing further took place during the
night and the town is quiet.

Noble Work OF Firemen.

At nre Friday morning at l:30
o'clock on King street, four women

Murdered and Robbed.

Mrs. Benjamin Lowry, well-knoWn
and highly respected old lady, living
alone near Good Hope c. II, in Madi-
son county Va. was murdered at some
recent date not definitely known, and
her house robbed. The body of the
cid lady was found lying On the floor
Of her room almost in nude condition
and blood was spattered over the floor
and all about the room. The coron-
er's investigation developed the fact
that her skill had been fractured in
two places and her body otherwise
mutilated. It is estimated that about
5000 or S700 in cash was taken. 1t
is believed by those making the in
vestigation that the murder occurred

aire, AnxIou. to Secure Ella Be-
lease from the Navy 1a Order
to Begin Life. Over Again.

Edward L. Dwyer, once millionaire
mine owner, promoter and bold specu-
lator in wheat, who startled even Chi
cago by his daring, and who later mar
ried duchess worth millions of dol
lars. sailed into the Brooklyn navy
yard the other day q marine on the
United States transport Calgoa.
Dressed in his natty sailor suit, his
face bronzed by the Philippine sun.
his muscles hardened by work, Dwyer
looked little like dashing speculatos
and husband Of duchess.
Dwyer has been in the service of the
United States since July 81, 1900, when
penniless, disnherited by his aged
wife, tired of wandering, he went to
Harrisburg ard enlisted in the marine
corps. The term of enlistment is three
years, but Dwyer has influences at
work in the navy department. and
there is little doubt that his early dis
charge will be secured.
Dwyer first attracted attention in
1880, then a member OF the Chicago
board of trade, by purchasing $1,000
bushels of wheat for future delivery
without depositing margins. While in
New York in 1894, representing west
ern mining interests, he met the
Duchess de Castelluccia, whose hus-
band had died only short while be-
fore. leaving her fortune estimated
Cho
years older than Dwyer. but he woR
her, and the two were married ct Rock
Ridge, Fla. January 20, 1895.
The duchess died soon after the we'd
ding, leaving the bulk of her fortune
to her two children. Dwyer received
$4,000.
Dwyer then started on the road to
financial ruin through speculation,
and in May, 1899, he found himself pen
niless He filed petition in bankrupt
cy in New York, with liabilities Of
S252,055 and no visible assets. But
Dwyer within a year had organized q
company with capital Of S1,500,0o0
to develop silver mines in Zacatecaa,
Mexico. Apparently this scheme was
not successful, and year later he was
again penniless. It was then that he
enlisted and was assigned to service
in the Philippines.
While Dwyer was in the Philippines
be looked about him for favorable in
vestments and he thinks enterprise
there will open the way to fortune. It
IS said that the bronzed marine will go
back to the islands Immediately upon
receiving his discharge.

WHAT IT COSTS TO MARRY.
Only . Five Dollar Bill 1s Necessary
to Ds1ray the Expenses In
Most P1acea,

Marriage is one OF the cheapest OF
Injuries if one reckons only the outlay
required for the payment Of the preach
er or magistrate who performs the
ceremony and the cost Of the license in
such states as require licenses. ANY
minister, priest or preacher Of the
Gospel in the United States may sol
emnize marriages, and in many states
judges for one or more classes Of
courts may ofaciate. In all save hall
dozen states, too, justices Of the
peace have the privilege Of officiating
at the highly important function, saya
the Chicago Chronicle.
In some parts of the United Statea
the person performing marriage GER
emony must have personal knowledge
OF the identity, names and residence OF
the parties, and inasmuch as such laws
are enforced in some Of the western
states where young people frequently
drive long distances to be married, the
stipulation has on occasion caused

of the states two witnesses are re-

states q single witness is sufficient.
There is still in force in Pennsylvania
an old law which p:escribes that l2
witnesses shall be present, but this. .e1-
action is seldomif ever enforced. Per-
baps the strangest stipulation OF all

baptismal name of either party in the
license and the use of a nickname in
.tcad, provided the parties can beiden-
.ifed. Any person cohversant with
the conditions prevailing in the mour-
.ain districts of Tennessee will appre-
ejste the wisdom Of this unique pre-
<iso.
Common supposition is to the effect
that the fee for performing the mar
riage ceremony is dependent entirely
upon the generosity ofthe bridegroom,
aud it will, doubtless, therefore, sur
prise many persons to learn that in
several states the law has hand in
the matter. In the Old Dominion, for
instance, there is statute which pro-
vides that the person solemnizing a
marriage ia entitled to fee OF one
dollar, and that any person exacting
. greater fee shall forfeit to the party
aggrieved $50" In West Virginia it is
stipulated that the, fee be "at least
one dollar" and the Idaho law says
that 1.-The fee shall be five dollars, or
any other or greater sum voluntarily
given by the parties to such marriage"
