The Result in Sharp.
What This Gay Old County
Did to the Festive
Candidate.

The unofficial returns of the
primary show Sharp county to
have been carried by Davis for
governor, Bourland for attorney
general, Eoff for auditor, Car
michael for chief justice and
McCulloch for associate justice.
In the race for state senator Nc
Call carried the county largely
over Beakley. In county poll
tics Andrews was nominated for
representative by heavy vote.
Matheny leads in the sheriff s
race by about 100 votes, Smith
being the candidate next to him.
The county judges race is close,
but it appears tibet Smith has de-
feated Mobley by something like
20 votes. The official count will
be required to decide the contest
for assessor. Horn and Murphy
are almost together, and it is be-
lieved there will not be more
than five votes difference either
way. Simpson was renominated
for surveyor it appears.

well, I guess not!
eve were married this afternoon at
Bloomfield, Ia, and are now ON our
wedding trip. We lowe each other
dearly. We are on this train. Hunt us
up"
This was the legend printed upon a
little slip of paper which was handed
to every passenger on the northbound
Wabash passenger as 1t left Bloomfield
last evening for OttumwaA Everyone
knew that bridal party was on the
train, and, most: of all, the young
couple themselves seemed ITO be aware
of their conspicuous position. They

ming, who had been married. at Bloom.
field yesterday afternoon, am were en-.
route to Burlington. Mrst Glenden
ming was formerly Miss Pauline Payne
one of Bloomfield's most popular and
best known young women.
When the train arrived at the
Bloomfield station, the yourtg people
boarded it, and were followed by a
crowd of friends, torrent iof rice.
and storm of good wishes. The
friends also got on the car, butt before
the train started on they haos appar-
emily left for their homes. and it was
not until Belknap had been passed that
Mr.. and Mrs. Glendenning knew they
were still to be prosecuted. They had
been enduring the gaze of the passen-
gers on the train who had been favored
with the little slips at the Bloomfield
stop, but Just as the train pulled away
from Belknap the entire party of
Bloomfield young men and women who
had accompanied the bride and groom
to the depot burst into the car and be-
gan cannonade of rice and conversa-
ton that threatened to engulf Cd
ductor Carson before he could escaI
out of range.
The passengers enjoyed it, and ever!
one else seemed to have a thorough APP
probation of the affair except Mr.. ants
Mrs. Glendenning. However, they en-.
dured the seige laughingly. and even
when some of the merry.makers pre-
coded them to the Ballingall hotel and
displayed number of placards pro-
claiming to all the world that they
were married at Bloomfield yesterday,
neither the young preacher nor his
wife was seen to finch. However, it
is very improbable that either will
soon forget the experience.
The young couple left last night for
Burlington, and their prosecutors took
the evening Wabash for their home
city.
