ding Ceremony. ~

Twin Bridges, Mont.-Remarried 20
odd years after they had been d.
vorced, the man not knowing when the
marriage ceremony was performed that
the woman at his side was his former
wife-this was the strange matri-
monial experience of western couple
who are now enjoying their second
honeymoon in the east.
A few days ago a quiet, well-dressed,
middle-aged man with iron-gray hair
and mustache and a retiring, sweet
faced woman apparently a few years
his junior stood in a dingy little Office
in western mining camp and were
pronounced husband and wife by a
justice of the peace.
Twenty-Odd years ago they stood in
pretty little church in Canadian
city and were pronounced husband
and wife by minister of the gospel.
The man did not know, nor even sus-
pect, when he left the dingy little office
of the justice of the peace that the WON
an he had just taken to wife was the
woman whom, a quarter of a century
ago, he had solemnly/ promised before
God to ''love, honor and cherish" till
death should them part. The woman
knew it, however, and she has since
revealed the secret to him.

promptly led the cayuse out into the
street before Sherwood had time to
get his drink: With a burst of pro-
family at the indignity put upon him
Sherwood put spurs to his steed and
set out down Farnan street.
He rode his horse into nearly every
big saloon he came to and called for
drink, but in every instance he and
thirst was quenched.
Then he rode at the top of his
horses speed up Farnan street. He
urged his cayuse up the long fight
of stone steps leading to the big
courthouse, rode him at a gallop up
and down and around the terraces
surrounding the temple Of justice, and
was riding him leisurely down the
corridor of the building when a po-
liceman took him into custody ans
packed him off to the station.
Sherwood spent the night in Jail.
The next morning he was arraigned
in the police court and fined for dis
turD1ng the peace. he apol0glzed
profusely to the court for the offense
he had committed, paid his fine and
went to his hotel.

Sherwood afterward, "that I was 60
ing to create such disturbance and
get myself into Jail when I set out
to take a little ride around town.
AS for my riding up the courthouse
steps and running my broncho up
and down and around the terraces,
why, that was dead easy. Out in the
mountains I've ridden him down

And somehow or other it seemed to me
You didn't take half enough rest
You SLY little mother. you spry little

I'm going to have you rest.
Dear little mother, it brings the tears
Whenever I think what I've let you do;
You've planned for my pleasure years and
It's time planned little for you.
SO drop that apron and smooth your hair:

And really and truly rest.

CURSE OF A LEPER'S SKULL
FALLS ON YOUNG COUPLE.
TRAGEDY OF LOVE AND WAR
American Soldier and His Pretty Fill

naming Days on Island In
habited by Victims.

Chicago.-A strange and grewsome
tragedy of love and war, as it en-
tered into the life Of Philip j. Alling-
dean, young American soldier, is
related by Capt Edward H. White;
who returned to Chicago recently
after five years military service in
the Philippines. =.
Phil was one of the most daring
and dashing boys that wore Uncle
Sans uniform in the archipelago
said Capt White. after some hard
fighting we were one day resting near
an abandoned burying ground. Phil
picked up one Of those bleached,
homeless skulls, thrown upon the
ground near the cemetery. made the
inevitable quotation from Shakespeare,
and, in callous exuberance, began to
laugh and crack jokes. Suddenly a
Spanish soldier, whom we had re-
leased from the natives, became ex-
cited and horror stricken.-This Span
lard could speak tolerable English.
"'Drop it, senior, drop it; what you
do is evil. 1t is unlucky; o, so un-
lucky to handle leper's skull and to
laugh. Abajo, acknowledgements esta
muy malo.'
unlike the other skulls, this one
showed a kind of roughness, a feath-
cry sloughing off of the bone. Phil
dropped the horrible thing in double
quick time.
But we had small time ia bother
about omens or superstition of any

ness, and her devoted husband had
taken her to- the big city to consult a
leading physician. I wished them
all happiness, and they went on their
way -
Two hours later Allingdean called
on me at my quarters. I was ap-
palled at the sudden change in the
man. He was haggard and trembling,
wllted and collapsed. 1 asked him
what had happened, but for minutes
his emotion kept him speechless, as
between great sobs he endeavored to
speak
My wife-a leper,' were the
words at length distinguished, and
felt thrill of horror at mention
OF the terrible disease. There flashed
on me the memory of the heap Of
skulls in the Philippine cemetery, OF
All1ngdean's act, and the Spaniard's
warning. Alas, poor Yorick, I knew
thee WE'LL sergeant had quoted. Poor
fellow, I thought, he found a Yorick
that now he knows with vengeance:
But l dismissed the matter from my
mind as stupid fancy and q mere
coincidence.
They have taken her away from
me-, he moaned; they have shut her
up IN the pesthouse, Saint Lazaro
hospital, to be sent to the leper island
Cullon. We are to be parted for
ever, unless have the disease de-
veloping in myself, as they tell me
l may have, and he cried, desper-
ately, as hope l have
In vain l. tried to console him
The mans sorrow was deep, and deep
er yet next day, when his wife, ap-
parently picture of health and
strength, was conducted on the ship
that was to bear her to the lepe1
colony, that dreadful place of living
death, from which none return.
1T was not their last parting, how.
ever. Since returning home have
heard that Allingdean, having be-
trayed unmistakable symptoms Of the
disease, has gone to join his wife on
the lepers' island"

tune in the west.
A misunderstanding arose not long
after he left her. Angry letters passed
between them. BY and by she wrote
him it was her wish that their cor
respondence should cease. He re-
spected her wish.
A few years later Mrs. Hurlbutt
went to the states. There she applied
for and obtained decree of divorce
on the ground of desertion. Mean
time Rufus Beresford had met and
fallen in love with her. He was an
old man and had not little wealth.
They we're married and two years
after their marriage he died in New
Mexico, whittier he had gone in quest
of health.
Beresford left all his property to his
widow. A part of his estate consisted
of mining interests in Montana. She
had occasion not long after his death
to go to Montana to look after her
property there.
At hotel in Butte one day she
saw a face that looked strangely
familiar to her. 1t was that of mid
dle-aged man with iron-gray hair and
mustache. Her curiosity was strange
ly piqued. She went to the hotel reg
lister. The first name that greeted
her eyes there was that of James
Hurlbutt.
They met daily in the hotel, but he
did not recognize her and she could not
bring herself to speak and make her.
self known to him.
Mrs. Beresford wished to get an
experts report on mining property
in which she was interested. She
was referred to Hurlbutt as a COM
petent and trustworthy man to make
the report. They were introduced. He
agreed to examine the property and
make the report for her.
Thus after separation of some rs
years James Hurlbutt and Ruth Emery
were brought together again.
Mrs. Beresford returned to New
Mexico. Letters passed between her
and Hurlbutt. Within a year she re-
turned to Montana.
She met Hurlbutt again. 1t did not
take her long to discover thahhe was
in love with her, nor did it take him
long to declare his love. They went
together up in the mountains and were
quietly married. = =
Only they themselves knew what
was said when, Immediately after their
second marriage, she revealed to him
the secret she had carried in her heart
SO long and he had never suspected.
1t is known only that they are now
in the east enjoying their second
honeymoon and that they appear
happier than they have appeared be-
fore in many years. = ~

into the woods and thickets, whence
1t took some pains to coax them back
again, for the Spaniards had given
them most uncomplimentary account
of us, painting us as ferocious mon
sters. Sometimes the retreating enemy

our approach she recovered conscious

WOMAN'S QUEER ANTICS.

pecially those who remain up until
midnight, have been RECALLED on many
occasions recently by naked woman
under the electric light at the cor
ner mentioned. She appears, no one
knows whence, rolls in the dust under
the arc light a moment with the evil
dent JOY described by Mary Mac
Lane, and disappears, no ore knows
whittier.
A man who burns the midnight oil

These anxious peppers all see the
same spectacle, beautifully shaped
woman darting from darkness into the
light, rolling in the dust like a spar
row, and darting away again into the
night. She is so fleet and so noise
less in her movements that few have
fancied her to be a ghost, but the
impression left in the dust shows
that she is corporal, and that her
measurements are all but perfect. e

the same stunt at the same place. One
