A Wedding Anniversary.

Possibly some of your readers might
be interested in the knowledge that the
forty first anniversary Of the marriage
of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. S. Campbell of
Cherry twp. occurred on Wednesday,
April 25th, which day was celebrated
by the ingathering of many of their
relatives and friends, who rejoiced with
them in their having passed so many
years together. The day was spent
much as such days are usually spent,
WIN talking, ball playing, eating.
speech making, etc, all of which tend
to make a day both enjoyable and
profitable to busy men and women.
The first speech was made by Rev.
Fenstermacher which, although very
good and to the point, was cut q little
short at one end by his having to be at
home in time to plant his onions that
evening. This gentleman is evidently
methodical in his work and does not
believe in putting off until tomorrow
what he can do today.
The next speaker was Rev Bradshaw.
He certainly had no onions to plant that
evening as he gave rs q well rounded
out speech. full of jokes and good
points, however he evidently believes
| that the marriage knot may through
time become SO worn as to render it IN
safe and acting on the belief he called
up Mr.. and Mrs. Campbell and remar
ried them on the spot.
Another, who spoke, was Mr.. Camp
bell himself He, as usual spoke in
terestingly-for few minutes.
They were also the recipients of som,
valuable gifts in the shape of furniture
etc, presented by their children.
Old Father Time has laid his HAND
very gently on this couple and consider
ing the two facts, viz: that Mr.. Camp
bell il veteran of the Civil War, ais
that he has been married forty on,
years, it is remarkable how few sign
OF age are visible.
These people have the love and re
spect of the entire community, and w,
| express a hope that they may pas
many more such anniversaries in thei
pleasant and comfortable home. Thes
meetings are JOY to us all, they ar
among the bright spots in our lives
the oasis Of life's desert.

WASHINGTON NOTES.

The general debate on the Hepburn
hill. in the Senate, will close to morrow,
by agreement; and the debate In the
amendments begin. Senator Tillman
tried to have May 9th fixed for the
final vote, but Morgan Of Alabama OBJ
iected, and the time can only be fixed
by unanimous consent.
Speaker Cannon has expressed his be-
lief that Congress will not adjourn
until well OH in June, and fortifies 1t by
excellent reasoning why it should not
Since passing the Philippine tariff bill
the statehood bill and the Hepburn rate
bill the House has labored more or less
diligently over the appropriation nllis'
which are now well in hand. but have
not been passed in the Senate Mr.
Cannon does not expect that the Senate
viii make any progress in considering
them until the rate bill is disposed OF
but he sounds an emphatic warning that
Senatorial haste in acting upon them
then will not be followed by the House
The speaker is familiar with the Sena-
torial custom of slashing and amending
appropriation bills on the order OF the
army appropriation bill. which was cut
$7. 900 from the House figures by the
Senate and then increased s, 100000 by
Senate amendments.
Champ Clark thinks that the Presi-
dent is too busy man to be chargea
with selecting the members OF the
Board Of Education for the schools OF
the District of Columbia
nIt's too much to ask of man who
I is making 100000 appointments year,
bringing the crowned heads Of the world
to a realization of the folly of making
war, delivering speeches about the man
with the muck rake and advising the
women of the country about purely
domestic affairs that he appoint the
members of the Board of Education OF
this district or any other part OF the
habitable globe. said Clark in opposing
a section in a bill pertaining to the
affairs of Washington.
That one little speech knocked out
the amendment and one was inserted
placing the duty Of making the appoint
ments upon the shoulders OF the
Supreme Court of the District OF Col
umbia.

CHURCH NOTES.

1t is said that at the religious services
held last Sunday among the ruins OF
San Francisco multitudes of men and
women joined with great fervor. and
many knee was bent and manv head
bowed in PRAYER for the first time in
years Doubtless this was the case The
calamity which overlook the people of
San Francisco was well calculated to
stir the souls of the people of the city in
a most unusual manner, and to make
them realize their own impotence and
the power of the Creator.

Hobson for President.

From state to state the rumor flies,
Arousing wonder and surprise
That Hobson, who became renowned
BY osculating all around,
Declares he cannot be content
Till he's elected president.
And SO the chance he'll hardly miss,

Kiss, kiss, kiss,
From Texas up to Maine.
Kiss, kiss, kiss,
And never mind the strain.
Widow, wife or maid,
Wallfower or budding miss
If Hobson lands
He'll meet all hands
With kiss, kiss, kiss. Gazette I

GEN. KURoKI of the Japanese army
is mystery He disappeared immedi-
ataly after the war, and no honor has
been publicly bestowed upon him Now
it is rumored that he is the former
English General, Sir Hector Mcdonald,
who was supposed to have committed
suicide in Paris, three years ago. After
the Boer campaign he was given high
command in India, and then in 1908
came the report that he had suddenly
left Hindustan ION private business. :
On this business he reached Paris, and
there read in a newspaper that he was
to stand a court-martial on grave
charges" Then came the report that
Immediately on reading this paragraph
he went to his room and shot himself.
At first it was decided that the general
was to be buried in Paris, but a new
surprise appeared in the person of his
widow, of whose existence the war Of
flee did not know. By the express wish
Of Lady Macdonald the body-or, as
rumor says now. the coffin-.was sent tc
London and unceremoniously huddled
away to Scotland in a baggage van
The body, or the coffin, was quietly al
most secretly, buried in public GENE
terry at half-past 6 in the morning. The
coffin was not opened from the time il
left the Paris hotel.

EVERY dog has his day and every
cat her night. No longer is the cat a
despised creature at which to throw
boot jacks and cuss words. Cat raising
has become a money making business
and one in which women are particular
ly successful Miss Laura Gold Hop
kins of New York says she is making
lots Of money raising pussies. She gets
from 800 to $500 each for Persian cats
and from $40 to SEQ each for the or
binary backyard variety. She began
with one cat about four years ago and
now she declares her "cattery" is worth
several thousand dollars. However,
she says there is not much money in
the common feline-society has the fad
rs usual, it is willing to pay high for
what it wants. So Persians have the
call-that is, for pets. But the poor,
neglected midnight serenaders are not
scorned as once they were. No. They
are eagerly sought. Some butchers
openly and above board are advertising
