TOLD THE TRUTH ONCE.
An Editor Did-And What Came of the
Experiment. it no More.

An editor, who promised to tell
the truth in just one issue of his
paper wrote up a wedding as fol-
lows: "Married-Miss Sylvia Smith
and James Cranahan last Saturday
at the Baptist parsonage. The
bride is very ordinary girl about
town who doesn't known any more
than rabbit about cooking, and
never helped her poor mother three
days in her life, and is not beauty
by long shot. and has gait like
duck. The groom is known as
an up-to-date 1oafer, and has been
living off his mother all his life,
and don't amount to anything no
how. They will have tough
time of it, and we withhold con-
gratu1ations for we don't believe
any good can come from such a
marriage"
An hour after the paper came
out the editor met the brides broth
er on the street. He got both eyes
BACKED and lost half an ear in that
encounter. On the next corner he
met her father, but heing out of
condition, sued for peace. But
there was no peace. The fathers
voice was for war, and the editor
retired from that scrap with seven
teeth and the end of his nose mis-
sing.
Then a feeling stole over him
that there was no place like home
and with the best haste that he
could summon under the circum-
stances he hurried to seek shelter
under his own vine and fig tree.
1t was the bride, backed up by
her mother, the groom's mother
and thirteen female sympathizers
that met him at the next corner.
They were armed with brooms,
scissors, pokers, kettles of hot
water, which they brandished and
fourished as they approached.
"Ohl you blackmailer; you liar;
you william; you horse thief" hel
heard them say, But the spectacle
was too much for him. He knew
it was useless to hoist the white
flag and sue for peace in the pre-
sence of that kind of foe, and with
a glance heavenward and a prayer
on his lips for forgiveness for hav-
ing once told the truth in his paper, |
he sank to earth in dead swoon.
When the ladies had finished,
all that was left of the wayward
editor was hauled home in wheel
barrow. ....
The paper did not come out the
next week. A note on the door re-
lated that the editor was confined
at home with very severe cold,
but that it would be out as usual
next week.
And so it was. And the leading
article said that on account of great
haste in going to press in former
issue, and by reason of certain ty-
biographical errors, grave blunders
had been made with reference to the
of Miss Sylvia Smith and 7
Mr. James Cranahan. This love-
Ly and fortunate couple, " the paper
continued, ''are a son and daughter
IN two Of our most distinguished
and wealthy families, the bride be-
ng most estimable and popular
young lady and a leader and fav-
orite in social circles. The groom
S one of our most talented young
business men and there is general
:ejoicing over the union of this
most fortunate young couple

HEALTH.

Several weeks ago we received
notice that Johu T. Washington,
a very exemplary, industrious
and intelligent young clerk from

run down in health that he had
to resign his clerkship in the
large Company store and go to
Hot Springs, Ark, to recuperate
in health. MIR. Washington was
prominent in social and public
affairs, and was director of the
large choir at the A. NJ. E.

many friends in Buxton and
Boone, his native home, that he
may speedily regain his health.
His wife accompanied him to the
South.

We received word that the
charges preferred against Rev.
H. S. Graves, pastor Of the A.

those charges preferred against
him before the Presiding Elder,
Rev. J. w. Malone, several weeks

Abraham Grant Of Indianapolis.
The charges were of nearly a
dozen different accusations and
each was proven to be true. The
bishop had hoped to have come
here himself, and did get as far
as Chicago, but took. suddenly
sick and was forcedsto return
