hem, n. H., where Mr.. Hamilton is superin-
tendent of schools. Waterville Mail.
DoLAN-DoNwoRTH. thursday morning,
at the Church of The Holy Name of this
place, Helen Catherine Donworth became
the wife of Hugh Francis Dolan. The mar
riage service was performed by Rev. John
O'Dowd, ID. D., of Portland, assisted by
Rev. {. O'Sullivan, the home pastor. The
bridesmaid was Miss Genevieve Sherlock
of Boston, a cousin of the bride, while Eu-
gene c.. Donworth, Esq, of Bangor, the
brides brother and for years an intimate
friend of the groom, acted as best man.
Father O'DOWd gave brief but touching
address previous to the marriage ceremony,
the latter being performed according to the
most solemn rites prescribed by the ritual
OF the Catholic Church, of which both the
contracting parties are members. At the
church the altar and sanctuary were deco
rated for the occasion and the service was
witnessed by a number of specially invited
guests, the marriage ceremony itself being
followed by a Nuptial Mass, the entire
hours. After the wedding breakfast at the
late home of the bride a reception was ten
dered an unusually large number of friends
by Mr. and Mrs. DonwOrth beginning at
high noon and continuing until $50 O'Clock.
The house, specially decorated for the oc-
casion, was darkened and brilliantly lighted
by electricity, giving a charming evening
effect to the pretty gowns and the profuSe
floral decorations. During the reception
music was furnished by IIutchinson's Or
chestra and refreshments were served by a
Bangor caterer. Numerous and costly we'd
ding gifts attested the popularity of the
young couple. The bride is the daughter
of MIR. and Mrs. c. b. Donworth, Esq, and
while an unusually large number of friends
extend their congratulations to the groom,
it is with regret that they realize that Ma
chias will no longer be the home of one
whose friendship the younger people of the
town have cherished for so long a time. Mr..
DClan, the groom, is native of Bangor and
at present practicing physician in Isles
boro, Me. Mr.. and Mrs. Dolan left on the
evening train for an extended trip to New
York, Philadelphia and Washington, and
will be at home to their many friends after

his African cousin. One of these is
that he scoots ahead in a straight line
when pursued, and always against the
wind, if he can. Aware of this habit,
the Patagonians chase him on horse
back, first placing some of their party
in ambush in the direction which he is
likely to take. They then gallop full
tilt up to the lines of flight, and either
intercept the ostrich altogether or
''hopple" it with pair of bolas. The
latter weapon is peculiarly Patagonan,
and was in use nobody knows how
many centuries before the coming of
white men; yet nothing better has ever
been devised for hunting the shy
creatures OF the plains, and the Span
iards and Guachos, away up in Chilli
and Argentine, have adopted it's use.
To make bolas take two stones of un-
equal size, one about as large as a
goose egg, the other as hens egg, and
grind them perfectly smooth by rubbing
one against the other. Cover each with
bit of guanaco raw-hide, firmly sewed
on, till it looks something like circlet
ball. Then cut two stout thongs, each
about four feet long; attach one end of
each to ball and knot the other end of
the thong together, so that when the
strings are at full stretch the balls will
be at least eight feet apart. That is
all there is of it and the bolas are then
ready for use. But the difficulty begins
when the novice attempts to handle
them, for dexterity comes only with
long practice. Every Patagonian has
had his almost from the cradle, for the
