A good story is going the rounds
among the friends of a prominent
young gentleman who on going to the
court house recently to secure a Ii
cense to wed went up to the Office of
kell and made application for licen-
Sc, thinking that gentleman was the
right official Mr. Haskell, who knows
good joke when he sees it.. and
thinking to have little fun at the
expense of his friend told the appli-
cant who had had no experience in
the matter of securing marriage licen-
ses, that he would be glad to issue the
necessary papers. The genial district
clerk then solemnly flied out a blank
form, called in another court officer
who was put on by wink, to swear
to it, told the young man what the
fee would be and delivered the alleg-
ed license to him. The gentleman took
the matter all in dead earnest, made
preparation to treat the clerk and
the witness and started to leave
when Mr.. Haskell called him back
and told him he had better take the
paper down stairs to the county clerk
for approval. Then the gentleman
asked what has the matter and he
the clerk. was not authorized to issue
the license. Mr.. Haskell replied mo
that is your naturalization papers. ="
Then the laugh was given and the
proper place but had to stand treats
for the crowd.

At late hour yesterday after
noon Judge Stevens announced that
he would close his brief session of
the court as he had heard and passed
upon all motions and demurrers that
he believed needed to be acted up
on at this time.
The motion in the Hoskins- Jaynes
case. being argued yesterday when
the Sentinel went to press resulted
in the court sustaining motion made
by Attorneys Logan, Wheeler and
Weiser for Jaynes, the defendant in
the damage suit, demanding that the
plaintiff make his complaint more
definite and certain"
After arguments by the attorneys
in the case of w. N. White and Co. VS..
the Independent Fruit Growers, the
court reversed the decision given by
the same court at Gunnison some time
ago, and sustained the plaintiffs de-
murrer to the defendants answer.
The court announced that he had not
fully looked into the statutes when
he rendered his decision at Gunni-
son and felt satisfied that a revers-
al was justified. Attorney Wheeler
& Weiser represented the plaintiff
The White company is commission
firm which brought suit some time
ago against the Independent Fruit
Growers association for damages on
account of an alleged violation of a
contract.
In the matter of j. II. Schieswold

murrer to the defendants complaint.

rections the Fairies came stealthily trooping
through the Wood, their tiny feet treading
the soft moss as If they walked on egg
shells. so afraid were the Fairies that the
Princess might awake and hear them and at
once suspect their secret.
They sat close together in Fairy rings,
and talked long time in low voices. At
last, after many conflicting suggestions, it
was unanimously agreed that the gift of
the Fairies should be an enchanted veil.
such as never bride wore before. They then
appointed a committee of the wisest most
practical Fairies to decide upon the nature
of the veil, and gave them whole week and
a day to present their report.
At the second mass meeting the excite
ment was even greater than at the first SO
enthusiastic were they all over the beaut-
full designs for veil that the artists of the
committee had drawn.
But 1t Is comparatively easy to draw love-
ly pictures of what you wish to have done.
1t is much more difficult to make your pic
lures come true. And the task of weaving
the beautiful enchanted veil would have
discouraged any one but Fairies, for each
microscopic thread has to be made by
hand. Fortunately there was an abundance
of time For the engagement OF the Prince
and Princess had been announced in June.
while they had selected Christmas, because
it is the best day of the whole year for
their wedding.
The Fairies knew that no good and beau
tiful thing was ever made In minute. SO
they began on the enchanted veil the very
next morning after the mass meeting AMI
they patiently continued to work each day,
and every night that the moon was lighted,
until the last fairy stitch was taken on
Christmas Eve
Now this beautiful, enchanted veil was
very different from the kind that just ordi-
nary brides wear today, and if you really
wish to know exactly how it looked you
must ask Mamma or your pet Auntie to
take you to florists and ask for mistle-
toe For Mistletoe is the Fairy name for
the bridal veil of the Trees. When the
sun rose on Christmas Day, there stood the
lovely Christmas bride with the beautiful
enchanted veil gracefully floating about
her, while the exutant Fairies looped
fold here and there, with glittering jewels
of frost.
The wedding that followed was the most
magnificent and impressive ever celebrated
in the great Wood. A troop OF little Cloud
Children, all dressed in white, scattered
snow flowers in the path of the bride. AMI
the Christmas wind was the peal of
mighty organ playing the bridal march.
But after all, their happy wedding day
was only one of the hundred and thousand
happy days of their married life. In fact,
this marriage of the Prince and Princess
proved so very happy that it soon became
tradition in Tree circles that for one to be
happily married the Fairies must be per-
And while human beings never use the
mistletoe for bridal wells, to this day they
look upon IT as sacred love token. For
even If they have merely shred OF the
Fairies enchanted veil hung up In their
homes, they make any two who come to-
gether under this piece Of mistletoe kiss
each other.
