to give his wife the best when they arrived at the Victoria hotel.
 ''The finest suite in the house." he said to Clerk McHenry.
 ''Sure," said the clerk, and gave them Ehe keys to room 313.
 According to the Chicago Chronicle. it was about Il o'clock when the bride groom and bride left the lobby. An hour later the bridegroom returned to the clerk
 Have you seen her 2" he queried, and be was excited, too.
 "Who?" naturally asked the clerk.
 'eWhy, my wife."
 Then the clerk looked at the bride groom. He wore a bathrobe. What else the clerk could not tell.
 ''No," he answered, finally. s'Well, she has deserted me-"
 s'So soon?" from the clerk.
 'Well, she's gone" a. .-@
 The clerk didn't know just what to do.
 Well, do you want to find herr" he asked at last.

You're a great model Lucy Ann," he said. "I'm ashamed to have done no better"
 She looked at the sketch with an eager, childish interest and seemed to enjoy holding it in hcr4hands..&
 l saw thiA out of the cornSe of my eye, my main attention being given to Miss Jones. Positively this could not be Sibyl; there was not the slightest physical resemblance. Her manner vaguely reminded me of some one I had known, but surely not Sibyl, whose habitual embarrassment in youth must have left some trace upon her, and Miss Jones was perfectly at ease. I had been pursuing a phantom. The picture I had found unquestionably represented the girl before MR. She and Sibyl must be friends, and thus the picture had come into our house.
 It was both disappointment and a relief. My thought of it was a strange mass of contradictions. I would have liked to find Sibyl though I had come to Mrs. Witherspoon's to avoid doing so. 1 had given myself great uneasi- ness for fear that Sibyl would not be pretty, and here was the prettiest girl that had seen in five years, yet was glad she was not Sibyl
 While we talked there was crac- kling in the underbrush and suddenly Jimmy Lamoine burst forth in great hurry. It must have been@the surprise of his life when he saw me. A youth of ordinary. resources would have been puzzled to account for his own pres ence theres and think it was a- notable

 See here, Shell, I'm out of cats, but I've got show for my stakes an- nounced Booker, as he threw in two kit tens and went shy cat.
 Well, Book, we'll show hands now or seal up the cards until you can raise more cats. It's shame to take your cats. I wish you'd call me-
 Not by long chalk, Shell. I'll never lay down on this hand. I'll die first Give me ten hours to hustle in for mors cats and then we'll show up"
 This was agreed to and inside of sin hours Booker drove up with 20 cats and six kittens The limit was raised ana the whole bunch of furry chips were de. posted in the fighting cat-pot, and tn, cards were unsealed
 Thus, says the New York Sun, did Smelling win the cat-poker championship of western New York and incidentally break Old Man Boo'-er

to pair of queens and caught small pair. Pete split pair of jacks and found 8 straight.
 ftOh, I'll bet kitten" said Booker. K "See your kitten and raise you two tcats,'' Pete came back.
 Booker called and lost.
 For the next six hands they simply swapped kittens back and forth without getting any action. Then on 3 jackpot Booker opened for one cat, holding pat a club straight, nine'high.
 Pete discarded a queen of hearts and caught the ten of diamonds, which gave him diamond straight, ten high. Then the cats flew into the box fast and furi- ous. . ~ ,
 The boxes began to get bit crowded and a vacant room was used to accumu- late the chips. Both men left their cards on the table and stood by their respec-

 'Xour aunt wants you," said he to Lucy Ann.
 The girl rose with quaint little sigh. 1t was pleasanter no doubt to sit there under the shade of the trees and be a modeS1Or a handsome young artist, pleasanter even to envy Miss Jones' beauty and pretty clothes and unattain- able refinement of manner, than to toll in Mrs. Witherspoon's kitchen Ditied her with hearty sincerity, exercising therein virtue not my own, for such merit is no more mine than is the money that spend. I have them both from my father, and my real nature goes back to some selfish anthropoid that lived in a tree and was perfectly satisfied so long as he had cocoanuts enough to fill his own stomach.
 What! More cake?" exclaimed Trask, addressing Lucy Ann in fine, cheery tone. Really you mustn't make it so good. We eat it too fast. I ad- wise you to make a nice soggy one this morning"
 "I guess you don't know my aunt" I" said Lucy Ann.
 Miss Witherspoon, said I, removing my hat with reverence, did you make the cake that we had with our ice cream last eveningT'
 It is a great thing to mean what you say If had not vitally believed that that cake was the best ever baked since the world began, I could not have pleased this poor child. She would have seen straight through me. As it was, she gave'me quick glance of gratitude.
 "Yes," said she. 'T made it."
 "Lucy Ann makes all the cake,' said Trask "She is an incomparable artist" '"
 "In that case,' said [, 'it is fitting that I should carry my hat in my hand all the way back to the house-that is, if Miss Witherspoon will let me walk with her."
 Without waiting for a reply I said good morning to Miss Jones and Trask, and grinned at Jimmy so that he might know that I was deliberately with drawing in order to give him chance to deliver his message about the pic ture. It was B. great and rare pleasure to observe that he was disconnected.
 "Did you ever see the like of Jimmy Lamoine?" said to Lucy Ann when we were out of earshot-
 'If you'd taught school, as I have" she replied, mentioning the occupation with touch of pride, as thought, you'd have seen & good many"
 ''So you've been schoolma' am,' I rejoined. Do you like 1t better than making cakeT' .....s
 Cake is mighty uncertain,'' said she, ''but I guess more school pupils are spoiled in the baking. I suppose per son, naturally likes to do what he can do best. I wish I could draw like Miss Jones.''
 Perhaps you could," said I, ''if MT. her, doesn't hep
 ''Yes," said Lucy Ann "He teaches her all the time" .....
 ''Is she staying here? I asked.
 She seemed not to have heard the question, and I was about to repeat 1t when she made a gesture toward the house, and at the same time shook her head.
 You'll see her around quite, often, though" she said. "Ain't she pretty?"
 Indeed she 1s,'' assented.
 Mighty pretty, I call her." said Lucy Ann, and she compressed her lips firm Ixy +1,o y1 1l~ ed little way in silence. -:
 "Goodby," she said suddenly. 'T've got to go in." ~ She nodded to me and then ran light ly toward the kitchen door, in which

 I glanced back toward the spot where we had left the others. All were upon their feet, Trask facing in my direc- tion, with Miss Jones at his right hand and Jimmy at his left. By the way that Trask's head turned from side to side I knew that an animated conver- sation was in progress, and could not be in doubt as to the subject. Jimmy had told his news about the photo graph. Did they guess that I had SUD- posed 1t to be Sibyrs? Probably. So Trask was in the secret. He knew where Sfbyl was.
 Well, for that matter, so did I. Be- yond question she was the girl in the orchard.

Tight Undergarments.

Many mothers and nurses who are careful'to supply the growing children with garments of sufficient size for day wear are careless as to the fit Of the night clothes. This is a serious error. Considering the attitudes which children assurhe during sleep it should be clear to all that anything which cramps the chest and limbs is detri- mental to free breathing and growth A tight collar band is especially harm ful and, in fact, dangerous. It should be remembered also that there is great CT warmth from loose than from tight clothing.

Salvation Army Wishes to Redeem
the Feud Country.
CLEVELAND, O., Sept. 14.-Colonel
Richard E. Holz, who will command
the Salvation Army corps during its
trip into the mountain districts of Ken
lucky and Tennessee, where it will
work striving to bring about a more
Christian condition of affairs than now
exists, was given a farewell by the To-
cal army branch. Colonel Holz, with
Salvation Army officials from Cleve-
land, Pittsburg and Cincinnati, will
leave for the field Of work. In an inter-
view Colonel Holz gave the following
details of the method Of work:
Our object is to carry Christianity
to the mountaineers Of the southern
states that will be visited. These peo-
pie are practically without Christiani-
ty. We feel that we should get in
touch with these mountain people
have a band of our Salvationists per-
sonally visit them and try our methods
on them. We are very hopeful that the
methods Of the Salvation Army will
prove just the thing to awaken this
peculiar people and bring them out of
their present condition. l can only say
that we are hopeful. Our methods may
not work at all. The coming trip will
tell the tale"

DOG UPSETS ,
AUTOMOBILE.
| Or. Albright Met with Accident in
D Henry Street Saturday
Afternoon.

A large dog belonging to Mrs. Nc
Govern, Of Henry street, caused quite
ar excitement Saturday. The dog is
a fine big animal and has performed a
number of feats, the latest n on
record was the throwing down of
Chris French's young daughter not
long ago, but nc one ever thought he
would come up against an automobile.
He did, however, and came out victor.
DR.. Albright was taking a spin
through Henry street when he saw
the dog right in his path. He attempt
ed to turn out and give him the road
and in the effort ran into the curb
stone. That sent the front of the auto
up in the air and the DOCTORS hat
also. The first report was that the
doctor went up and out too, but that
was afterwards ~contradicted, and al
though he no doubt received a good
shaking up, he was in his drug store
as usual in the evening. The dog had
been run over and he rolled over and
over about twenty times, it is said,
and then started on a run and was
around the street as usual in a little
while ready for any more stray autos
coming that way. The axel of the
front wheels of the doctor s auto was
bent and the machine had to be towed
back by Dayton, the car man, and the
doctor walked home.

The captain of the coal barge Ma
jestic was taking off the matches, pre-
paratory to loading with coal at the
lowest chute of the Lehigh wharf and
accidently fell into the hold. He
struck on his side and hip and for a
while couldn't get his breath, SO they
thought he was dying. DR.. Meachem
was called and examined him. He
said no bones were broken although
his hip was injured and it is probable
that he was injured internally. He
was taken to Jersey City where he
resides,
