An exchange tells of an ignorant
fellow who was about 10 get married
He wanted 10 be perfect in his ans
wers TO the questions propounded by
the minister, so he studied what he
thought would be the ceremony for
the occasion. But somehow he got
the Methodist discipline mixed up
with that part of the ceremony which
has to do with taking of members in
to the church. wilt thou have this
woman to be thou welded wife,
The bridegroom answered in a sol
emn tone. Il renounce them all "
The astonished minister said, Il
think YOU are fool" to which he
replied, 'All this | steadfastly be-
lieve"

Kelly's Great Feat.

The latest marvel to rise o'1er the
athletic horizon is Kelly, the Pacific

KeIly's remarkable work is just becOm-
ing public In the report OF the Pacific
Coast A A l.. games Kelly waS cred
tied with running 100 yards in 3-5 sec
onds. thus equaling the marvellous feat
Of Arthur Duffey, the Georgetown flyer,
who ran in this time al the Eastern
intercoIlegiates in 1872. The majority Of
athletic critics IN the East looked
askance at his record and il Will prob
ably take some pretty well authenti-
Gated proof 10 secure its acceptance at
later day
But when the other performance
credited 70 this young man, about which
there can be little. II any. doubt. are
considered it viii be seen that Kelly
must indeed be 4 real wonder. Not
only did the Western officials give him
a record Of 9 3-5 seconds fOr the 10
yards. but they also caugh- him the

Good Work in Broad jump,

But Kelly had another Performance
little less remarkable than his sprintiug.
lie also wor the broad jump with leap
ot 3 feet 91z inches. Except the month
previous, when he is credited with hav-
Ing done a feet . inches in the oregon
State meet, this performance was the
best that has been done this year on
either side Of the Atlantic. Il was only
this year that Kelly began to show his
marvellous athletic ability. Last year he
was badly beaten in the National 4.
A l. championships at Portland Ore,
by both Hahn. Of Michigan, and Par
sons. then OF California. AS he is not
yet twenty-one years old, and in addi-
ton 20 the three performances credited
above mas cleared the bar in the high
jump al feet 105k inches, II begins 10
dawn on one that this Pacific coast ath-
lete may yet astonish the Eastern world.
Little. II any. less remarkable Is the
work of Edward Cook. the Chillieothe
high school boy Under competent
timers Cook has been credited with go
ing the 100 yards in 8 rs seconds lu com
petition, and has repeatedly won hts
event in 10 seconds fiat and beaten p
seconds for the 220-yard u6sn. Cook. IN

Not only can he sprint. D., Itr can broad
jump quite as well as Key. Al the
Central A. a. L meet in Chicago last
week. Cook Won with a leap of . feet
6L3 inches. He consistently clears bet
ter than % feet and is said TO have done
q feet . inches IN practice. He also
has a record OF feet I inch in the high
jump, and II feet 6 inches in the pole
vault Cook is now slated for the Uni
versity of Michigan, and under the in
struCtion OF Keene Fitzpatrick he ought
10 create more remarkable records than
those he now holds
