ELLIoTr-KANE.

Aiken, S. c., March 27.-The marriage
of Capt. Woodbury. Kane and Mrs. Dun
can Elliott, the celebrated Sally Hargous,
took place at 8 o'clock this afternoon in
st. Thaddeuss Episcopal church.
The wedding was not ostentatious, but
a party of relatives of the bride came
here from New York. A married sister
of the bride acted as matron of honor
and Center Hitchcock of New York was
best man.
The ceremony was performed by the
Rev. T. w. Clifford, the rector of the
church.
1t was announced at first that Bishop
Ellison Capers would officiate. but 1t now
develops that this was never the plan.
Bishop Capers gave his official consent
which the laws of the Episcopal church
require where either party has been di-
vorced. The bishop, however, does not
approve of the marriage of divorced par
ties
Captain and Mrs Kane left for an ex-
tended honeymoon trip.

Athletics in Philippine Army.

General w. II. Carter, u. S. A. in Har
per's Weekly.
A soldier who is not in fine condition is
not of much value in the rice-paddies
and mountain jungles of Filipinia. A
recognition of this fact induced the gem
eral in command in the Visayan islands
to introduce new system which removes
athletics from optional work and places
1t as one of the most important of COM
pany duties. The instruction was turned
over to captains, and period quite equal
to that allotted to rifle practice was set
aside during which athletics were the
main features and other military duties
incidental. 1t was even provided that any
injury received should be reported as in
Cured in line of duty.
The companies were given several
months in which to pursue a course of
training. A list of military and athletic
events for a department meet was an
nounced and the four companies of each
battalion were tried out, and the win
ming company designated TO compete in
regimental meet. The three companies
representing the three battalions of each
regiment then engaged in a competition
to determine which company should rep
resent the regiment The successful COM
panies were then brought together in a
battle royal at the department athletic
meet, which took place at the new "shel-
ter" post on Guimaros island, opposite
the city of Iloilo.
The individual events were quite up to
the standard, while the military team
events excited admiration and won thu
highest encomiums. The high and low
wall scaling were marvellous perform
ances.
The delivery of ammunition to the fir
ing line with pack mules, over a half
mile course, including the saddling and
packing of the mules. in less than seven
minutes establishes records which 1t will
be difficult to beat.

Hogs Keen Sense of Hearing.

From the New Orleans Times Democrat.
Hogs have much keener sense of
hearing than most people seem to think, !"
said man from the country. They can
see well and at a considerable distance,
but the nose and eyes of the hog must
give place to the ears.
This is. no doubt, because hearing is
probably the most useful of the senses in
the hog life, particularly at that season
of the year when the hog in the wild
state must rely upon the fruitage of
trees in the main. for food. Even with
this advantage 1t is frequently a fierce
race to see which hog can get there first
1t would be interesting to know just how
far hog can hear an acorn fall. 1t is
remarkable how quickly they become cog
infant of the fact that an acorn has been
blown from its outer shell and tumbling
toward the ground. and he seems to catch
petitor is near who will run him a race
for the nut. l have witnessed some fierce
ard interesting races between hogs. with
an acorn as the stake.
Put a hog within twenty yards of an
oak and In nine cases out of ten he will
beat the acorn to the place. In nine cases
out of ten the hog will be within a few
feet of where the acorn strikes the ground.
another fact which argues the superiority
of the hogs hearing. He can apparently
tell pretty well by the sound where the
acorn will fall. and he will rarely miss 1t
more than few feet"

Immigrants and Race Suicide.

From Harper's Weekly.
Is there any use in preaching the
propagation of their species to the people

stantly recruited at the rate of about a
million a year from the most distressed
people of Europe? Last week $4,000 i'm
migrants landed in New York, and the
busy season has not begun yet. If there
is something in the atmosphere of modern
American life that makes Americans dts
inclined to raise families so that immsra-
ton is necessary to recruit our porula-
ton, that is one thing. If Americans
have been scared out of raising any but
small families because of the Constant
pressure of immigrants on the labor mar
ket and the other opportunities or the
country, that is another thing. II ths

RIO GRANOE GETS BUSY
Builds Tracks at Night and Heads
Off Street Railway Com


BY putting large force Of men at
work shortly after midnight Wednesday
morning the three tracks of the Rio
Grande Western were laid across Twenty
third street near Wan avenue. This
haste was evidently for the purpose OF
getting the rails down before the Ogden
Rapid Transit company had time 10
build its line along that thOroughfare.
il appears that the cost of maintaining
the crossing falls upon the company
which lays its rails last, and by getting
their tracks down before the street rail-
way people had an opportunity TO pass
that point the Gould people scored a
point.
The action came somewhat as a sur
prise, as II was not generally known that
there was any contention over the mat
ter. Last Monday the street car COM
pany secured permission 70 lay its lines
street between Wall and Lincoln ave-
nues. Originally the street railway peo-
pie intended going along Wall 10 Twenty
second and were given permission by the
city to extend their Wall avenue line as
far as Twenty-secOnd street. They later
decided to pass up lwenty-third to LIN
coin with the evldeIN purpose of run
ming along that avenue to TWenty-secOnd
street, on which they would go east TO
Washington avenue. thereby tapping
section of the city that is without street
ear service.
special train was run over the Rio
A1IdillE ~ tSltIu TOT the purpose VI
bringing their labOrers to Ogden. The
train arrived between Z and 1 O'Clock
yesterday morning. and as soon as the
men could be uuoaded they were taken
10 the scene of operations, and in a short
time had the dirt flying. The street rail-
way people before o O'clock yesterday
morning had a large force OF employees
at TWeuty-third street. but it was too
late 10 do anything, so the men were set
at work laying the street car tracks up
to the tracks put down by the Rio Grande
Western. No attempt was made, how
ever TO cross the steam road tracks. The
street railway peOple state that they will
build up to the tracks and no farther at
the present lime. and that WITHIN a few
days they will have their cars running
that far. The Gould representatives
state that they are anxious to get their
tracks down as soon as possible, in order
that they may commence work on their
new terminals here With e compile
tion of the tracks across Twenty third
street the force of men wi. be moved
10 TWenty-second and Twenty-first
streets, where similar tracks will be put
down. This will practically head off the
RAPID Transit company from running
east from Wall avenue unless il stands
the cost of maintaining the crossings
after they are put in.

BONE OF CONTENTION.
Lively Fight Over the Postmastership
at ogden.

The question as to who will be the next
postmaster OF Ogden seems 10 be the
sole topic of conversation in the political
world here at the present time. Since
the meeting Of the executive body of the
Republican county committee the
charges that were brought by Rudolph
Kuchler against Bishop L. w. Wade have
received considerable airing. The bishop
was charged with circulating the report
that the Republican state committee op-
posed the election of Mr. kuChler for
mayor of Ogden and for this statement
he was accused of bad faith. Bishop
Wade denied the allegation, claiming that
the information ne received came from
others, including y. J. Harris, and in
turn Mr.. Harris denies that he ever re-
ceived any such word William Spry
chairman of the Republican state com
mittee. was in Ogden yesterday and de-
MED alphabetically that he or any other
members of his committee had ever made
OF authorized any such statement, and
INSTEAD We're in ful sympathy with the
movement TO elect Mr. Kuchler mayor.
The sentiment seems 10 be growing that
the executive body, which endorsed
Bishop Wade, was not the proper COM
miteee 10 make the endorsement, and
there is a possibility of the fun county
committee getting together TO make an
other endorsement IN the meantime all
Of the candidates are busy in an effort
10 further their chances for securing the
appointment.
