Finish. - II / C DRY
reeds are cleaner and

This applies also to
hickory flats.

CUP FOR "Doc" OWENS.
He Kept out Of Card Games and Passen-
gers on Cedric Gave Him Handsome
Testimonial

eStlmOnldl
DOC" owens, famed wherever the
game of poker Is known, and more especi-
ally in the smoking rooms of the more
pretentious of the transatlantic liners, and
from which all companies have made
efforts to exclude him, has been present
ed with a loving cup, and that by the
saloon passengers of one of the biggest
steamships atloat
Hitherto those who have met owens
on shipboard have been more inclined to
present him to the police than to tender
him tokens of appreciation. How he
happened to receive a loving cup instead
of the stormy reception which custom
arly attends his landings was told sun
day night when the White Star liner Ced-
ric reached port.
1t was on the vessels last outward trip
to Liverpool. Hardly had she swung out
from the North River pier before the word
went around among her numerous saloon
passengers that Owens was on board.
Forthwith those who had notions of Will
ing away some portion of the journey
in the smoking room thought better of II
and decided that the smoking room would
be a good place to avoid Then a curiosity
to see a man so notorious led some to the
compartment
And those who went to look remained
to play.
Assurance had been given by the officers
that he would not be allowed to play in
any game where money was hazarded, a
report cheerfully confirmed by owens
himself.
Then he set about making himself
agreeable and succeeded so admirably that
before the voyage was half done he was
selected to auction off the pools on the
days run, although some who knew him
shook their heads and opined that no good
would come from it, Then he loosened
thirty-nine of the worlds supply of forty
jokes, but what the smoking room
habitues most appreciated was the fact
that he RETAINED from efforts to get into
any of the card games that were being
played.
SO it came about that the unshorn felt
moved to present him with a loving cup
and To this end $l60 was promptly sub
scribed Those who came back by the
Cedric said that the cup was to have been
engraved in London, and with a ribald
inscription. the exact text of which they
could not recall.
Owens formerly made regular visits to
Brattleboro as an oculist He INDUCED
In the game while here and 1t is under
stood that on one occasion he paid dearly
for his experience. In the past few years
the New York papers have frequently
printed stories regarding his escapades on
the ocean steamships.

A Divorced Man Married stepmother Of
His Former wife.

At the Baptist church parsonage at
Randolph Saturday evening took place the
marriage of Dana Luce and Mrs. Cyrus
Rollins The contracting parties have
rather queer relationship, by the grOom's
first and second matrimonial adventures
Luce married Miss Dora Rollins. a step
daughter of his present wife. However
things did not run very smoothly and the
couple were divorced. After a few
months Of single life they were again
married and lived together some time and
seemed to be happy, but trouble again
developed and the Orange county court
settled the trouble this time by granting
Luce divorce at the last December term.
In his last marriage Luce took for his
wife. not exactly his motherin-law, but
a respectable woman, who has served two
terms as his mother law.

MASSACHUSETTS NOTES.
Orange Booming.

There is much activity in real estate at
the present time at Orange which may
be accounted for in the fact that 1t is
estimated that the proposed engagements
OF the present business of the town will
make an increase Of SO per cent. which
would run the voting list from 1850 to
200O. and the population to between 5000
and 5000 within three years. This is
without any new concerns. but a natural
growth of the present factories which Is
already planned. While all the factories
foresee an increase in the near future
the large share will be credited TO the
New Home sewing machine factory
About every tenement is taken, and thus
the slack caused by the going out of the
shoe shop is taken up, and a boom year
is ahead without doubt.

NEW HAMPSHIRE NOTES.

Edward o. Frink, of Winchester, killed
a fine specimen of a wood grey fox with
an ak recently. Mr.. Frink was chopping
in some woods in the eastern part of Win
chester, and feeling thirsty started for
nearby brook carrying his AK in his
hand. When he was near the brook he
saw something move in the brush, and.
thinking that it was probably a rabbit.
he hurled his AK at it. To his surprise
out jumped two large foxes, but the back
OF one had been broken by the blow from
the AK and it was not difficult matter
to finish him.
