ated- They have numberless rur-
Al communities. he SAYS, where

tie elder, terror stricken, fled
home and gave the alarm. For
three days the inhabitants of three
villages sought in vain for the lost
child. Finally Gordon was drawn
around the extensive tract of for

discovered the bear and her booty
in dense -hicket. The child was
perfectly unframed, and reclined
in a deep, messy couch made for
her by the bear. She had gotten
over her first fright, and had sub
sisted fairly well on nuts and 9th
er forest fruits brought to her By

,;..nmarily killed by the villagers.

AGRICULTURAL COURTsHIP.

A potato went out on mash,
And sought an onion-bed;
That pie for me, observed the scuasi
And all the beets turned red.
Go way" the onion, weeping, cried,
Your love l cannot be;
The pumpkin be your lawful bride,
You cantelope with me. -
But onward still the tuber came,
And laid down at her feet;
You cauliflower by any name
And it will smell as wheat;
And I, too, am an early rose,
And You I've come to see
So don't turn up your lovely nose
But spinache at with me-
Il do not carrot all to wed,
So go, sir, if you please!Y
The modest onion meekly said,
And lettuce, pray, have peas.
Go. think that you have never seen
Myself, or smelled my sigh;
Too long maiden have been
For favor in your rye"
"Ah spare cuss." the tuber prayed;
my cherished bride you'll be;
You are the only weeping maid
That's current now with me-
And as the willy tuber spoke
He caught her by surprise,
And, giving her an artichoke,
Devoured her with his eyes.

WEEDS YOUNG COACHMAN
Georgiana. Dowaser Countess Of Ra-
vensworth. Aged 90. Marries
Her Jehu. Aged Is.

London, Eng, May 16.-Geor-
giana, dowager countess of Raw
ellsworth, has startled society by
marrying her coachman, James
Wadsworth. The bride is nearly
90 years of age, grande dame, a
leader of one of the most exclusive
sets and regarded as one OF the
staunchest defenders of position. :"
She is daughter of the. Right
Hon. Richard Denman and married
in 1872 Major Oswin, c. Baker
Cresswell, and, secondly, in 1892,
the Earl of Ravensworth, who died
in 1908, leaving the widow all es
tate amounting to nearly 81, OO0,
600. Little is known of the fort
innate coachman. He is the son of
a real estate dealer, handsome and
% years old. ttfttfft
Wadsworth had been in the serv-
ice of the countess four months
when they were married The we'd
ding was a secret zone, celebrated
at ST. Georges, Hanover Square.
A curate ,officiated and only two
witnesses were present For a
week after the wedding he lived in
the stables behind the countess
mansion in 'Grosvenor street. per
forming his duties as though moth
ing had occurred to'change his posi-
ton III the world.
None of the great establishments
Ill Grosvenor knew of the marriage
during that time and when they
visited the countess to investigate
it was found the couple had gone
into the country and are now spend
ing their honeymoon on the Ravens
worth estate, where they are closely
guarded by retainers and where all
visitors are denied.
1t has been learned that on the
day of the wedding the countess
was driven away with Wadsworth |
on the box, and it was believed /
that she >had merely gone upon
some of her social duties. The
coach was driven to Hanover Squa-
re, where the counress was left
while Wadsworth drove off and
changed his clothes, returning in
a short time inside the carriage
with a friend driving for him.
After the wedding he changed ,
his clothes and drove the countess
back to her town house, taking the
carriage back to the coach house
and placing the horses in the stable
where he continued to live for
week.

This is enormously construed as
practicing polygamy, and creates
the impression that polygamous
marriages are still permitted in and
by the church.
IL was ascertained by a careful
census Of 1890, when President
Woodruff issued his manifesto
against further polygamous marri-
ages that there were 24sI such
families belonging to the church of
Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints in
the United States. In May, 1909,
a complete and thorough inquiry
showed that the original number ia

majority OF whom were of advanced

the Herald that he has let the con-
tract for constructing the buildings
for the fruit dryer being erected by
him to Messrs Leigh Of this city at
price exceeding $1,000. AS soon

the brick work is on the ground,
and the construction work will soon
be under way.-Parma Herald.
