Knoxville, Tenn, January 24.-When
William F. Shortley. aged 81. and Miss
Mary Smeline Whitner, 65, were mar
ried here today in the office Of the
county court clerk by Magistrate C..
b. walker, an interrupted romance
had reached the novelist's conclusion.
Forty-fve years ago, near AsheVille,
n. c., William and Mary were sweet
hearts and exchanged sweet promises.
The war came on, William marched
away as a Confederate soldier, to re-
turn home and find his sweetheart
gone, leaving no trace. In his grief
and in the hope that he might one
day see her, he travelled over many
states and in many countries, finally
settling down on a farm near Jackson,
Miss. A week ago he decided to re-
visit the home scenes of his youth and
went to North Carolina. BY chance,
near his old home, he found the sweet.
heart Of forty years g living. Like
him she had been true to her vow and
remained single, despite many offers
of marriage, hoping one day to SET
William. Their mutual hopes realized
it required but a few hou for her te
accept his hand, pack her belonging:
and board the train for Mississippi
They stopped v e here and were mar
ried at noon today.

HOW TO WIND A SQUIRREL.
Mr.. Empie %Instructs Two Senators
and a Representative.

Senator Empie is always ready to
discuss any question relating to hunt
ing and the proper methods, first of
protecting and then OF securing game.
Already he is known as the sportsman
PAL excellence of the legislature and
any measure dealing with the conser-
walton Of game OF hunting privileges
meets with his enthusiastic support.
Also. Senator Empie is up to the kinks
Of the trade Of marxsmen and hunt
crs. He knows the various devices Of
is no new stunt of which he is not a
past master which concerns hunting
lore. Now and then he breaks GU.
with a new thing with the manner Of
a man who has grown I'D with the
story which makes other people sit ID
and think.
A couple of Senators and Repre-
s%entatives were walking down with
Mr.. Empie from the capitol yesterday
and admiring the tight rope perform
ance Of the squirrels running from
tree to tree upon the spans of the
electric light wires, when some one
spoke of Daniel Boone and his prac-
tice of getting squirrel meat by bark
ing" that is by shooting a rife baff
so that It strikes the limb on which
the rodent is sitting without actually
striking the game, the result being
tnat the squirrel is shocked to death.
One of the Senators was inclined
to demur to the truth of this tale OF
the ground that no man could be ex-
cept accidentally SO expert a shot. but
Mr.. Empie came promptly to the res
cue of Daniel Boone's reputation.
"~Barking!" said he. why that's
nothing: you ought to see the way g.
friend Of mine is Duplin county does
them. He don't ever think of a thing
like barking them, because 1T spells
the meat. A squirrel is a curious an
NAL. which few people understand.
1t you hit him with a shot, or even il
you bark him, the fright makes his
meat fifty pei cent. less eatabIe tnan
If you take his life before he knows its
going. There's only one way to kill
a squirrel, and hat is to wind him.
-What?" said VIC.
Haven't you ever heard of windIns
squfrrels?" asked Mr.. Empie. why
that's the only way a real squirrel
hunter oes 1t. You Just take a big
bore rife, or, better, a musket, any
way a thing h a carries a large ball.
Then you see your squirrel on a limb
and you aim just a fraction. a very
small fraction. in front of his nose
and shoot. AS h ball goes by, it
creates a vacuum in its wake and as
the nearest breath to this void Is that
Of the squirrel it follows IN the path
of the bullet, and the squirrel, from
the loss Of his breath, fails to the
ground dead before he knows where it

Empie, "a squirrel is not fit to be
eaten unless he has been winded."
"Ah!" said we simply for the Iack
