BEAT THE RECORD.
Topeka Girl Keeps Marriage Secret for
Year and Half

A romantic episode in which two well
known young people in Topeka were
the central figures has just come to
light.
Miss Marie Gill and George K.
Croker. childhood playmates and
schoolchildren together were secretly
married in Lawrence, Kansas, more
than year and a half ago by the Rev.
Mr.. Courtney, the Congregational min
lister OF that place.
Miss Gill is the daughter of Mr.. and
AIRS. f. d. Gill of No. 935 Madison
street, who formerly lived at Anthony,
Kansas, which place is also the home
of the parents of MIR. Croker who are
very well-to-do and prominent people
of the locality.
The couple were playmateS together
and grew up in school together Not
many years ago Mr.. Gill moved to To-
peka to live, and Mr.. Croker came
also He was a clerk in the last legis-
lature. The young people were together
much of the time but none OF their
friends suspected that they were plan
ming to be married. nor did any of
their friends find it out after the cere-
mony was performed.
On February 3, 1903, however, they
quietly went to Lawrence where they
secured a marriage license and were
married by the Rev. Courtney.
After this time All. Croker entered
q drug store on Kansas avenue and
worked in this city until several months
ago when Mrs Gill went to Anthony to
visit with friends and relatives OF
course Mrs. Gill who was unaware of
her daughters marriage, took her
daughter with her to Anthony.
i About that time ME-. Croker also
went to Anthony where he has engaged
IN the drug business. The young folks
revealed the fact of their marriage to
AIRS. Crooker's mother at that time.
Mrs Gill returned to Topeka just re-
Gently. Mr.. Gill was surprised at her
return alone and upon fnquiring where

HER LARGEST CORN CROP.
Lincoln County Has Splendid Acreage
This Year.

Lincoln, Oct. 29.-Lincoln county
this year is raising one of the larg-
est corn crops in her history. The
county also raised a fair wheat crop.
1t is no wonder her farmers are get
ting rich, and most of them carry bank
accounts. In fact, Lincoln county in
over twenty years has missed but one
crop of corn and wheat, and that year
crops were a total failure SO far as
the wheat and corn were concerned.
i Even the women of Lincoln county are
concerned about crops. One of the
good women of Lincoln, who has re-
sided here for more than twenty years,
business and prominent stock feed
err suggests that the Saline valley in
which Lincoln is situated, is one of
the fairest and most fertile sections
of Kansas. This good Lincoln woman
says: eff a little dry weather, a hail
storm, a freshet or any other setback
to crops, however slight it is, comes
to our people in this favored Saline
valley, the correspondents for the daily
newspapers herald it all over the
country, but when the farmers are
showered with prosperity. such as has
generally been the case with the Sa-
line valley since I have lived in Lin
cOln and only one failure in over
twenty years, the papers are generally
silent
This Lincoln woman is a good
housekeeper, bakes a nice loaf of
bread and lives in a comfortable
home from which a commanding view
of Lincoln and the prosperous and
beautiful Saline valley can be seen,
both east and west as far as the eye
can reach.
