Girl in Panic When She
Saw Color of We'd

CARVER. Ont, Nov. "a romance. Of
the French Canadian settlement 10 the
north Of here came TO an untimely and
sad ending a week ago because an in
dulgent aunt presented the bride with
scarlet wedding dress. This may seem
an odd cause for breaking of love
affair that had been progressing ardent
~ for a couple OF years. but it did,
temporarily.
Peter LoveJOy and Marie Larocque an
nounced their engagement a year ago
and when pretty Marie's prosperous
aunt in Montreal heard of Il she
straightway wrote a letter 10 her IA
vorite niece telling her that her wedding
gift should be the bridal gown and ask
ing her TO select the color. Marie has
dark hair. rosy cheeks and an artistic
temperament, and. after due thought,
she asked for deep maroon, thinking
that would go best with her brilliant
brunette complexion.
Whiskers Wouldn't Match.
In due time the coveted parcel arrived
by express and stage and Marie, in the
ecstasies OF unbounded delight. opened
il. Instead OF maroon the handsome
cloth was a pinkish red, and pretty
Marie almost swooned

II was up TO the mother TO explain TO
Peter, for the daughter couldn't trust
herself to look at him in the same
room with the wOndrous garment. so
as gently as she could she broke the
news. But If good Mrs. Lerocque had
any idea that she was going 10 lose her
prospective sOn-tn-laW by so simple q
combination as dress, Whskers and
scar, she was happily disappointed.

Mrs LarOcque was filled with con-

the neighbOrs would say, how her
daughter would take It and II the dye
could be washed of when the gown
wore out. She was sorely perplexed,
but Peter settled ali questions once and

 T cannot believe that the loss of life in San Francisco was confined to mere hundreds. I would be the last to stretch facts, but I am convinced that several thousand persons suffered death. Thieves and looters were dealt with summarily. personally witness ed the sudden demise of several ghoul- ish men.
 q saw a fellow cutting rings from the hands of dead woman in Bush street, just below Sacramento. There was rush of men, and within few minutes the robber was dangling from a pole. One innocent man met his death at the hands of the military. He was the cashier of bank and refused to obey the command to halt, but con- tinued to run into the bank building. He was shot"
 South of Market street the loss of life was mostly brought about by the collapsing of many cheap and crowd ed lodging houses. Among others the caving in of the Royal corner of Fourth and Ninna streets, added to the horror of the situation by the shrieks of it's many scores of victims imbedded in the ruins.
 The collapsing of the Portland house on Sixth street came about in a similar manner. Fully sixty persons were en- tombed amidst the crash of timbers and brick. Many of these were saved before the fire eventually crept to the scene.

BENEFITS DURANGO MUST
ACCRUE FROM COAL DEAL

The gigantic coal deal announced
in The Herald yesterday afternoon,
in which the large coal territory for
merly owned by the Porter Fuel COM
pany passed into the possession of
the Southern Pacific railway. at once
suggests the paramount benefits that
must come to Durango coal fields and
to the whole commercial and indus
trial fabrics of Durango. The South
ern Pacific railway Is one of the larg-
est, II not really the largest railway
corporation financially in the world,
owning steamship lines on both At
lantic and Pacific oceans.
The first benefit which must appear
to the ordinary observer is that as
surance implied that Durango will get
the Southern Pacific broad gauge line
to the Pacific coast as quickly as the
railway company can build It, The
Southern Pacific railway had already
acquired possessory title to several
thousand acres of coal land on the
south. but they had to have coking
coal and mines equipped for immedi-
ate production. Even though. AZ sug-

A GREAT IRRIGATION PROJECT.

A great irrigation project, involving
an expenditure of about $4,000. 600.
has been authorized by the secretary
of state for India. The area com
manded by the canals is about $3.50
square miles, although only small
part of II will be reached for num-
ber of years to come. In this area, 1t
is estimated. about 5000 square miles
will be irrigated. The water will be
taken from the Jhelum river. in which
there is now unappropriated at the
site of the headworks a flow of $500
to 1900 cubic feet per second. 1t is
believed that the investment of public
funds in these works. great as the
sum may be, is well warranted by the
economic advantages of the undertake
ing and the reasonable assurance of
ample interest payments.
