 A beautifully impressive wedding cer- emony was soiennized last evening at inc home of Mir. and Mrs. George W i. Spear on Wilkerson Street, when at 7:30 o'clock last evening their daugh- ter. Miss Louise Elizabeth. Spear be- came the bride of Mr. John RdsselI Mcdaniel. The double parlors were with perfect taste adorned in a plan of green and white and in it's execu- tion profusioh of white roses. white carnations and white hyacinths were placed on nnantels, tables and cabinets. A lavish and artistic use of Southern smilax was an effective background for the white blossoms. while violets in low bowls punctuated their beauty. The ceremony was performed in the pres- ence of, a few close friends and the relatives of the young couple, Rev. Charles A. Stakely officiating.
 The bride was gowned in white net over silk and carried an arm shower bouquet of brides roses, lilies of the valley and smilax. She entered ac- eon1panied by the groom, and they were preceded to the altar by his sis-, ter. Miss Ellie McDsniel of Clanton, who was maid of honor to the bride She was becomingly attired in white liberty silk and lace and carried pink carnations caught together. with pink ribbon.
 Mir, Van Pelt rendered wedding march on the piano as the wedding party entered and during the cere- mony played soft appropriate selec- tion
 After the ceremony an informal re- ception was held in honor of the young couple and dainty refreshments were served from q table. the centerpiece of which was sS'endid cluster of white roses in a cut glass vase resting on lace over green satin.

 Eggs cheese. milk and butter may be used every day, but abstinence Good Friday.
 "S Persons exempt from the obli- gation of fasting are not bound by the restriction Of using meat but once a day on the days in which the use of meat Is permitted by dispensation.
 Children over seven years of age are bound by the law of absti- hence. unless excused by sickness or other causes
 TO. The pascha1 time, in which all catholics who have come to the years or discretion, are bound to receive Holy Communion worthfiy, extends from the first Sunday of Lent till Trinity Sunday, inclusive. Children over seven years of age are bound by the precept of Annual Confession. Pas tors md parents should see that the children comply with this duty
 I'll. The Holy season of Lent Is a time Of prayer, of sorrow for sin, of seclusion from the world and it's amusements. and of Senerous aimsGiv- ing.
 "12. By a special indult granted to the Bishops of the United States for ten years, dating from March 18th, 1905, working people, who can not cas- fly observe the common law of the Church, are dispensed from the obli- gation of abstinence on all days of the year, except Fridays, Ash We'd nesday. Holy Week and Christmas Eve. This dispensation does not exempt from the additional obligation of fast ing. where such exists, nor does it au- thorize the use of fish and flesh at the same meal. It includes, however, not only the individual workmen in whose favor iI is granted, but all the members of their families as we'll. In return 1t is expected that those who avail themselves of this indult will endeavor to enter into the spirit of the holy season of Lent by voluntary acts of modification, penance and almsgiving. A most praiseworthy cus- tom is that of abstainIng during Lent from stimulants, in honor of the Sa- cred Thirst of Cur Divine Savior.
 Those who entertain any reasona- ble doubt about their obligation to fast or abstain, ought to apply to their pastor or confessor for advice"
 Yesterday was Mardi Gras day, or the day preceding the beginning of Lent and as it is @ legal holiday in Alabama, all of the banks in the State were closed.

The resolutions went over until to-

The resolution went oyer until to- morrow.
 The reading of the bill was proceed ed with until the provision for the sale of coal lands in Indian Territory was reached, when Mir. Bailey took the floor. He expressed the opinion that the land should be held for the education of the Indian children. saying thu income would be sufficient to give anniversary education to all the Indian children in Indian Territory. He thought this dis position would be preferable to per hitting the lands to become the prop erty of the railroad companies as they were likely to do.
 He quoted a recent decision of the Supreme Court to show that roads car ry their own coal more cheaply than they do those of other vendors.
 Mr. Clapp said he would not object to the elimination of the committees amendment.
 MT. Clark (Mont.) moved to reject the amendment, and Mir. LaFollette proposed an amendment prohibiting railroads or the owners of railroad stock from acquiring the coal lands.
 MT LaFollette expressed the hope that Mir. Clark's motion would not pres vail and added the conviction that af- fairs were so intolerable m Indian Ter ritory that there should be affirmative Legislation. He announced his iuten- ton to later address the Senate on the subject.
 Mr. Clark tWyo.) opposed the mo- ton to strike out, saying that to sell ,the lands outright was preferable to the present leasing system. To con tinue the present plan, he urged, would be to place monopoly of the produc- tion of coal In the hands of twenty or thirty persons.
 Without disposing of any of the mo. tions or amendments, the Senate went into executive session at 5:30 and al 5:37 adjourned.

 Tuscaloosa. Feb. 27.-(Special. )-The revival services that have been con ducted at the Presbyterian Church by the Rev. Frank Wright for the past two weeks. closed last night. It was thought that these services would close last Friday, but MT. Wright con sented to stay over until last night.
 The farewell services, as they were called, were very impressive, and the Lrgs concodrse of people present seemed much stirred by the eloquent and impressive sermon 0f the preacher. At the close of the services the con- gregation sang the familiar hymn, God be With You Till We Meet Again. Mir wright, who has a magnificent bar itone vo.1e, singing the last stanza as a solo. The effect was impressive and touching in the extreme. Probably more responded to the call of Christi anity last evening than at any other meeting.

 Today is the beginning of Lent. Ths Lenten period will end Saturday night April 14th, Sunday. April 18th. being Easter Day
 Ash Wednesday as a holy day is nearly thousand years, old. It was sanctioned by tho Roman pontificacy in 1191. and afterwards came general ly to prevail. The historic ceremony of Ash Wednesday. which was the strewing of ashes on the heads of the congregations as sign of peniteuce still prevails in the Roman Catholic Churches. In the Episcopal Churches of England and America the symbol of the day has been discarded although the significance remains, and Ash Wednesday Is still throughout the Christian world a day of penitence.
 At St. Johns Church there will be services at Il a. m. and 5 D m., and at the Church of the Holy Comforter at 4:30 D. m.
