B. II. Blackwell Of Oxford has pub
lished careful reprint of AN Account
Of Virginia; Its Situation, Tempera-
ture, Productions, Inhabitants and
Their Manner of Planting and Order
ing Tobacco" 1t is, in brief, pam
phlet communicated to the Royal 30
ciety in 1916 by one Thomas Glover,
ian ingenious Chirurgion." who had
lived for some years in the province.
Mr.. Glover would seem to have reckon
ed the sea serpent among the inhabit-
ants of the colony to Judge from the
minute accuracy Of the following de-
scrlption:
"a most prodiglous Creature. much
resembling a man, only somewhat lar
ger, standing right up in the water
with his head, neck, shoulders, breast
and vast, to the cubits Of his arms,
above water; his skin was tawny, much
like that of an Indian; the figure Of
his head was pyramidal, and slick,
without hair, his eyes large and black,
and so We're his eyebrows; his mouth
very wide, with a broad, black streak
on the upper lip. which turned upward
ut each end like moustachoes; his coun-
tenance was grim and terrible; his
neck, shoulders, arms, breast and vast
were like unto the neck, arms, shoul-
derS, breast and vast Of a man; his
hands. IL he had any, were under wa
ter. He seemed to stand with his eyes

MARRIED AT HIGH NOON
Last Tuesday Miss Lizzie
Ritter Became the Bride
of Ed. G.. OiehI,

Tuesday, at high noon, the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. William Ritter, Rail
road street, was the scene of very
pretty wedding, when Rev. S. b.
Evans, pastor of st. PauPs NJ. E.
church, pronounced the words that
joined their accomplish daughter,
Lizzie G., into life partnership with
Mr.. Edward G. Diehl, popular
young man of this city.
The bride, who was handsomely
gowned in Alice blue landsdowne, and
the groom, in the conventional black,
stepped into the presence of some fifty
especially invited guests, unattended,
while Mrs. Emma Woods rendered
the wedding march from Lohengrin.
After the ceremony and a round of
best wishes and congratulations ex-
tended, fine dinner was spread and
all present did eat of such feast as
would do justice to royalty. At 2:11
O. clock the happy couple, amid a
shower of rice, boarded the ID. l.. d
w. train for tour to Wilkes Barre
and Scranton.
The bride is a highly esteemed and
popular lady, and very successful
music instructor, being for II number
of years pianist in the st. PauPs M.
Z. Sunday school, from which or
ganization she received as a token Of
love for her very faithful services,
two handsome rocking chairs. Many
other useful and valuable presents
were received
The groom is son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Anthony Diehl, of Mahoning town
ship, and is well and favorably known,
being the popular assistant at Shan
mons meat market.
They will return home Saturday
and take up housekeeping on Sudbury
street, South Danville, where newly
furnished house awaits them.
The Intelligencer voices their many
friends in wishing them happy, long
and prosperous union.

A Chinese gentleman often presents
his intended bride with pair of
geese, and they are regarded as en-
blems OF conjugal fidelity.
The head of an Eskimo family
gives his doctor fee as soon as he
comes. If the patient recovers, it is
kept; if not, it is returned.
In Bolivia the natives of the inter
ior wear hats and shirts made of the
bark of tree, which is first soaked in
water and then beaten until pliable.
In Siam the number of rooms in q
house, of windows or doors in q room,
even of rungs on a ladder, must al
ways be odd. Even numbers are
considered unlucky.
The adjutant, or marabout, a tall
bird of India, of the stork species,
will swallow hare or a cat whole.
1t stands five feet high, and the ex-
panse of wings is nearly fifteen feet.
Ladies seldom rise in Spain to re-
ceive male visitor, and they rarely
accompany him to the door. For a
Spaniard to give a lady-even his
wife his arm when out walking is
looked upon as decided violation of
propriety.
Conspicuous among the adornments
of the bridal feast in Brittany is an
artistic and elaborate butter structure,
as fanciful and elegant as the most
beautiful bridal cake, and into this
structure the guests stick split sticks
bearing coins of gold or silver.
A curious custom is observed in
certain districts of Spain in regard to
betrothals. A young man who de-
sires to win the hand of any damsel
calls on her parents for three success
sive days at the same hour of the day.
On the last occasion he leaves his
walking stick, and if he is looked on
with favor by the maiden and her
family the cane is handed to him
when he calls again.
Bakers in France are subjected to
certain unusual rules and regulations.
In large fortified towns, for instance,
they must always have certain stock
in hand in case of war. Not only
this, but everywhere they have to de-
post sum of money in the hands of
the municipal authorities as surety
of good conduct; and the law, not
content with merely looking after
their weights and measures, actually
decides the price at which bread is
| sold.
