R A QUEER TOWN.
Not a Spinster Nor n Bachelor In 1t,
hut There Are Plenty of Wealthy
widows.

Ninety widows in a town OF $500
population, every n good looking, all
of them rich, and no one that wants to
marry again. That is part of the CEN
sus record of Crownpoint, Ind, reports
the Indianapolis News.
At the intersection of two streets,
making four corners, are W squares,
called Quality Corners" and at these
corners are four widows whose aggre-
gate wealth is more than $500, 900, and
in two blocks there are eight widows
who can draw their checks for at least
$500, 900 more. In the vicinity Of
equality Corners" are IL widows, all
handsome, all well to do. The rest of
the 80 widows are scattered oyer town.
These widows enjoy themselves and
are noted for their acts of charity, and
many of the poor people Of the city can
thank them for good dinners and warm
clothing in winter. 1t vas once re-
ported that the widows of ~Crownpoint
were going to organize a union, but the
man who started the report mysterious
" disappeared and has never been heard
of but once; and then he was living
the life of a hermit in a cave of the
Rocky mountains.
Another popularity of the census in
Crownpoint is the fact that there is not
an aged spinster in the town, not a bach
elor, and only one widower. "Old
maids" do not grow well and bachelors
are considered a disgrace. The one wild
over has been showing signs of matri-
mony lately and there is no telling what
is going to happen.
The matrimonial sharks of the large
cities have heard about the wealthy
widows who grace Crownpoint with
their presence and have sent agents
there to get a list of m Several
of the widows have received offers. of
marriage, but they have turned them
all down. If any of them should get
married again it is declared that the
happy bridegroom will be one of Crown
points noblemen.
