Tom Thumb Wedding.

The Tom Thumb Wedding Friday
night was one of the most unique affairs
ever transpired in our city. AS trainer
of small children Miss Briney can not be
beaten anywhere. She was here less than
week and yet she had the little "tots"
so well trained as wedding guests that
scarcely mistake was difcoversble,
Seld m have we witnessed such real
hearty laugh by any audience. The
house was full and we do not believe
there was a single person that went away
feeling that their moneys worth was mol
fully obtained. 1t was a play that has
excited more comment than any event OF
the kind that has occurred for long
time here All honor to Miss Briney for
her wonderful success, and three times
three cheers for our bright little children.
There is not a single parent but what has
reasons for feeling proud Clyde, Kans.,
Herald.
Miss Briney is training the children OF
The primary school here for this amusing
little play which they will give at the
opera house Thursday, October Oath at
200 p. m.
We anticipate full house to greet The

A Christian science Decision.

A novel and interesting decision waA
recently handed down by the Supreme
Court of the State of Texas. The case
was that of a lady who had sued the
Fort Worth and Denver City Railway
Company for damages on account Of
physical and mental suffering in being ex-
PEELED from one of the defendants passen-
ger trains. The lady in question was a
member of the Christian Science cult,
and the attorney for the defendant en-
deavored to establish this fact during the
trial, explaining that the plaintiff would
not take medicine, and that it was her
belief that she suffered only when she
thought she suffered. and it was only a
question with her whether she suffered or
did not, and that as a Christian Scientist
"she lived in a spiritual plane above men
tai and physical sufferings; that it vas
an article of her faith that there was no
such thing as mental or physical suffer-
ing, and that she did not actually suf-
fer" The court would not permit the
attorney to bring out this point, and a
verdict was given for the plaintiff. On
appeal the Supreme Court reversed the
decision, holding that it was an error not
to allow the desired testimony to be in
troduced, since it was pertinent to the
main and essential issue in the case, to
wit, the mental and physical suffering of
the plaintiff. This decision suggests q
new line of crcss-examination in damage
suits where the plaintiff is a believer in
Christian Science.
