OnJuly 7th, 1905, in Denver, Colo,
occurred the marriage of Mr.. Isaac T.
Purcell Of this city and Miss Edith f.
Andrews of Shenandoah, Iowa. The
host of friends here were not a little
surprised to learn of this happy event,
for Isaac had long been looked upon
as immune from the charms OF the
fair sex but even the Inyincible is
vanqHished and the gentleman in
question has surrendered his bache-
iordom for matrimonial bliss. We
are not acquainted with the bride
but are informed that she is very
charming lady In every way. Mr..
Purcell is perhaps as widely known as
any man in the western half of the
state and needs no introduction to
our readers. He is personal friend
of the editor and we feel that we
know him so we'll that we do not need
to dwell at any length upon his excel
lent qualities for all who know him
soon find out that he is thorough
business man. shrewd politician and
a true friend. After September Ist
Mr.. Purcell and his bride will be at
home to their friends in Wa-Keeney.
The WORLD and a large circle of
friends extend congratulations to
Mr.. and Mrs. Purcell and will gladly
welcome them in their midst.

A. newspaper IS like man, because
it generally reflects some man, and it,
as man, should be judged ON the
whole. No man lives a perfect life;
no editor prints perfect paper. If
an editor is honest he is bound to Of
fend some one every day of his life.
II he doesn't offend some one, the ed
itor is namby. PANTY. and flabby.
The same is true of the average man.
A newspaper is bound to make mis-
takes, in getting news 1t must neces-
sarily take hearsay. But it is in the
long run In the main, week after
week and year after year, a paper
stands for decency, for honest think
ing and clean living, If it speaks for
those who are trying to do good and
condemns sneaks and cheats, that is a
good paper.-Hiawatha World.

TELEPHONE FIGHT.
Further Hearing on BilI to Incorporsts
 Independent Companies.

Hartford, May 1o.--The judiciary committee continued it's hearing this afternoon on the bill to incorporate in- dependent telephone companies in this state. Advocates of the admission or Independent companies to the state were heard f1r5t, among them being D. Albert Reynolds, of New York, proni- nently identified with independent conn panies in that state, and various others. Ex-C Congressman Lewis Sperry, of this city, counsel for the advocates of the measure, said that since these hearings had begun farmers about the state who desired telephone service had been i'm vited by representatives of the South ern New England company to build in- dependent lines, the promise being made that after theNline was constructs ed the farmer could have service for g a year. From witnesses whom he ex- amined MT. Sperry brought out the as- sertion that any telephone company could afford to operate such lines on 2 basis of $9 a year.

WILL NOT RUN AGAIN.
President Reiterates With Emphasis
 Ills Determination

Omaha, Neb., May 10.-The Bee to- day quotes President Roosevelt as making the emphatic statement that he will not be a candidate for reelection. The paper says:
 You are authorized to state that [ will not again be q candidate for tho office of President of the United States. There are no strings on this statement. mean 1t. made my speech at Dem yer for the purpose of convincing the people of my earnestness in regard to the matter of railroad Legislation. ! will not be satisfied with any compron- ise that will not bring relief to the peo- pie from the conditions that now exist in regard to transportation affairs in the country. No compromise bill from congress will be accepted.
 This is President Roosevelt's reply to a representative of the Bee on his special train, as it journeyed across Nebraska. Published statements to the effect that the president would be forc- ed to accept renomination by the peo- pie, who would be aroused to that pitch by the failure of congress to enact re- medal legislation, was shown him. He expressed himself most efnphatically that he was not to be swayed from hia determination by any advances that might be made him, no matter in what disguise they came"

COUNT CAssINIs TRANSFER,
Russian Ambassador Going to Madrid
 Baron Rosen Coming.

Z s
 St. Petersburg, May 11-1:20 a. m.- The transfer of Count Cassini to the embassy at Madrid and the nomination of Baron Rosen to succeed him as am bassador to the United States are off, cially confirmed here. The change was: substantially decided upon some months ago, but was held in abeyance, and, as has been stated in these dispatches, it was not expected that Count Cassini would be relieved until the conclusion of the war with Japan. The transfer now was precipitated by the resigna- tion of M. Schevitch, the ambassador to Madrid, who has retired from the diplo- matic service and been made member of the council of the empire. Baron Rosen's thorough acquaintance with far eastern questions, should peace ne- gotiations eventually be begun or com pleted at Washington, peculiarly fits him to take Count Cassini's place.
 Baron Roserrs diplomatic career was begun as secretary of the legation in Japan and he has twice represented his government as minister at Tokio. He has also served as minister to Seryia and Greece. He enjoys personal ac- quaintance in the United States, having acted for time, early in his career, as consul general at New York The baron and baroness are now in St. Pe- tersburg. The exact time of their de- parture for Washington has not been determined.

 Paid Him s11, 1000.

Boston, May 10.- Neither party; no further action to be taken, is the sim pie statement of the settlement of the suit brought by Frederick R. Coudert and Paul Fuller of New York against Thomas w. Lawson for $225,000 with interest from May, 1899, which was written on the back of the writ filed with the clerk of the supreme court to- day Lawson stated tonight that the terms of the settlement were that the plaintiffs should pay him $11,OO0 as counsel fees, and no further action would be taken in the case.
 The suit originated in a subscription for $25O000 of the stock of the Kern incondescent gas light company made by MT. Lawson, on which he paid $25,- 900 cash. He refused to pay more, claiming that certain conditions had not been carried out and that false representations had been made. Paul Fuller and Frederick R. Coudert as as. signees of the company, sued him for the remainder with interest amounting in all to s31O, 1000.
