Welded in Greek Church.

The Greek church was the scene of
a solemn, yet very pleasing ceremony
on Monday last At 10 O'Clock OF
that day, Chris Kojoivich and Miss
Annie Lepetich were joined in the
holy bonds of matrimony in accord
ance with the rites of the orthodox
Catholic church, the Rev. Father
SimovlUh officiating. The affair was
witnessed by large number of the
friends and relatives of the contract
ing parties.
The bride was attired in beautifuI
dress of cream silk, with bridal veil
and wreath of orange blossoms. She
was attended by Miss Annie Perovich
as bridesmaid, while the groomsman
was Clio GudeIj, of San Francisco, a
cousin of the groom. The bride is
the eldest daughter of Spire Lepetich
of jackson, and the groom is board
ing house keeper at jackson Gate.
After the ceremony in the church,
the invited friends sat down to a we'd
ding breakfast at the couples home
at jackson Gate. There were about
100 present at the feast, and the re-
mainder of the day was given over
to feasting and merIymaking by the
happy couple and their friends. In
the evening the jackson band sere-
naded the pair at their home Nh
and Mrs kojoivichhave repaired to
their own home at the Gate, and
their many friends unite in wishing
them long and happy matrimonial
lite. Many useful and beautiful gifts
we're presented to the bride on the
occasion.

as 1t is known there will be a vacancy
in the senatorial district comprising
Smith, Phillips and Norton counties
and which Warden Haskell now holds,
that Phillips county will trot out her
man. but that paper don't say whether
1t will be J. r. Morse, DR., G. E. Nelson,
W. A. Robertson, or some other fell
low
There may be some political fun in
sherman county. now that ex-State
Senator Lockard has moved there from
Norton county. e. S. Knight, former
clerk in the office OF Secretary of State
BurrOW, is also a resident of Sherman
county. Both he and Lockard are
politicians, and fighters, too, and either
of them have great political ambitions.
They will want TO know how things
are done in Sherman county, and
neither one will object to carrying the
pull of that county in their vest
pocket. This will create politicaljeal-
ousy, and then the hair will commence
to fay, and what then?
The Hill City New Era says that Mrs
NJ. c. Inflow is on the state delegation
from Graham county to the Populst
convention, TO be held in Topeka,
July T. She is the wife of Editor IN
low. of the Reveille, and is a former
Topeka lady.
The farmers of the Sixth district are
saying less about politics this year
than ever. They are reading more and
enjoy their papers since the rural free
deliveries are bringing them the daily
mails. There has never been q time
when the Sixth district farmers were
so independent as they are now, and
the present signs indicate that they
will go to the polls and vote this way.
The Sixth district Is all right; her
farmers are making money. and few of
them will attend political picnics or
reunions this year. A Ropulist con-
ventfon was held in Graham county
recently. and less than half hundred
of the faithful were present and sew
eral townships didn't have representa-
tives. Politics is unsettled, and by
many II is believed the trouble will not
be s'ironed" out until after the votes
are counted. So far as the Sixth dis
trict is concerned politics seem to be
an enigma at this time.

NO MOTOR CARS READY.
Missouri Pacific Files Answer in Nfadi.
son Branch Nfandamus Suit.

Waggeher, Doster & Orr. attorneys
for the Missouri Pacific. have fled the
answer of the railroad company to the
mandamus action commenced in the
supreme court by Carr Taylor to COM
pei the Missouri Pacific to install pas
senger service on the Madison branch
Of its line, which runs from Madison
through Mound City and over to Mis-
souri, points.
The company was ordered by the
railroad commissioners to install pas
senger service. or else put on a motor
car, on or before the first day Of last
May, but failed to obey the order. The
railroad company alleges in its answer
that the practical operation of motor
cars is still an unsolved problem, but
that It is experimenting with the
proposition, and will put one on the
Madison branch as soon as possible.
Until that time. the railroad company
claims that it is impossible to operate
a passenger train on that branch. and
claims that it lost $4,000 during the
last year that it did operate such a
train.

I'm time OF PEACE PREPARE
FOR WAR;" SAYS Mr., HULL
Chairman Of House Military Commit
tee Says United States Must Be
Prepared to Defend Its Own.

Observation-Disclosures Hull, Of
the military affairs committe, in pre-.
senting the army appropriation bill to
the house Wednesday urged the
necessity Of complete preparedness
as to our army and navy, for trouble
in the Orient. He declared that any
nation not prepared to defend its po-
sition in China might as well haul
down its flag and quit the Pacific.
Incidentally Mr.. Hull pronounced
Minister Rockhill guilty of an indis-
erection in indicating to Chinese off,
Gals that the United States intended
returning the e2O,OOO,OOO sterling
Boxer indemnity paid. Statements Of
this kind, he said, will be taken by
the Chinese as an indication that the
United States was afraid rather than
liberal.
Mr.. Hull secuted the idea that Ja-
pan was interested in stirring up trou-
bic in China to injure the United
States. Japan's interests in China, he
said, were identical with those Of the
United States and preservation OF
peace there was the only manner in
which they could be maintained.

The Payne customs house bill con.

The army appropriation bill under
iebate carries total appropriation OF
t69,67S,S27, which is less by $1,521,158
than the amount asked for by the de-
partment.

Then Custom Quickly Spread to
Women of Fashion.

Then Custom Quickly Spread to
Women of Fashion.
The custom Of powdering the hair
dates back as far as the sixteenth
century and was first introduced by
the nuns in French converts. Those
who had occasion to leave the clois-
tiers for any reason were wont to
powder their hair SO as to make it APP
pear gray and give them venerable
look. The fashionable danes were
80 struck with the novel effect Of
white powder on dark hair that they
soon appropriated the device as one
OF the arts Of the worldly toilet. Out
OF this grew the use of tints in the
hair. The Roman women often used
blue powder. and later, In 1860, En-
press Eugene set the fashion Of using
gold powder. Rome un6er the empire
and Greece during the time Of Per
tcles were seized with a mania for
golden hair. The bellies and fops Of
the day devised several methods
whereby black locks might be
changed to golden yellow, but bleach
ing did not always succeed. Conse-
quently quite trade was established
with tie fair-haired tribes beyond the
Alps, who sold their locks to Latin
merchants to be worn on the heads
OF Roman handles.
