CAME NEAR MAR
RYING DAUGHTER
FACT WAS DISCOVERED JUST AS
MINISTER WAS ABOUT TO
PERFORM CEREMONY
PROSPECTIVE BRIDE
FAINTS.

RIVERTON, Wyo., July 1.-Erastus
Singer, a well known and quite
wealthy ranchman of this section, and
| thought bachelor by his friends and
acquaintances, recently became en-
gagged to marry his own daughter and
their relationship was only discovered
when they were aboutto be married.
i Singers daughter is Mrs. Nellie
Farmer, handsome widow of about
80 years of age. The denouement oc-
Cured at the home of friend Of
Mrs. Farmer near Anaconda, where
the wedding was to have taken place.
Singer became engaged to Mrs.
Farmer through an eastern matrimon-
ial agency and he did not inquire
too closely into her past life or she
into his.
When the couple met at the home OF
Mrs. Farmers friend, Singer thought
the face of his prospective bride
looked familiar. Then he requested
Mrs. Farmer to open the book of her
past.
When the story was finished Sin
iger exclaimed, with tears in his eyes.
"You are my long lost daughter; |
am your father"
Mrs. Farmer looked at her father q
moment and then tainted.
The minister who had been sum
moned to perform the ceremony was
dismissed
According to Singer, he married
years ago in the east and separated
from his wife who was given the Gus
tody of their little blue-eyed girl, Net
tie. Singer began roaming about the
country and finally settled in Wyom-
ing, keeping his past secret and per-
hitting his friends to believe that he
was bachelor

With the ushering in of the new
fiscal year yesterday, Uncle Sam put
into effect a number of new laws.
Hereafter 10 cents worth of ordinary
stamps, in addition to the required let
ter postage. with the words Special
delivery" written across the envelope,
will be an acceptable substitute for
the regular special delivery stamp.
The new SO gold certificate made
its debut On the face of this new
denomination of gold certificates is an
excellent likeness of Michael Hylle,
gas, the first Treasurer of the United
States, taking up nearly the entire
space. This is done in order to make
it hard to counterfeit.
Nearly 10000 postal clerks and
more than $4,000 city carriers got in
creases of salary. Rural carriers also
come in for a raise.
Railway mail employees also got
raises.
The compensation of railroads for
carrying the mail was reduced.
Every postmaster for the next six
months will keep a record of the
weight Of mail of each class.
The new immigration law, regu-
lating the solicitation of immigration,
and the accommodations to be ac-
corded immigrants aboard ships, went
into effect

PENALTY WILL
NOT Be ENFORCED
CORPORATIONS WILL NOT BE
REQUIRED TO PAY $500 FOR
FAILURE TO REPORT.

Yesterday being the last day in
which corporations could file their an
nual reports with the secretary of
state without being liable for the pen
atty of $500, there was a big rush to
get these reports in. So rushed has
been the force in the office Of the sec
Rotary of state that they have had no
opportunity to ascertain the total
amount of fees reported, but it will be
enormous. There are, however, a
very large number of corporations in
the state that have not paid the tax.
Secretary of State Morton will ac-
cept the reports and taxes of all cor
porations that may be filed after yes
terday and before Sept. 1. These re-
ports and the taxes will be accepted
without the penalty of $500, which, un-
der the law, accrues after July 1. No
delinquent list will be certified to the
attorney general of the state until af-
ter Sept. l, and then the list will in
clude only those corporations which
have failed to report by that date.
While from the wording of the law
it is quite probable that the courts
would hold that all concerns which
had not reported by July l were liable
for the penalty of $500, there Is no
disposition on the part of any official
of the state charged with the duty of
the enforcement Of the law to impose
any hardship upon the corporations.
The law is new, and to make any radi-
cal construction of it would doubtless
prove quite burden to many who
failed to report through ignorance

DOG REASONS WAY
TO CATCH RATS

One of my teachers owned small
dog that was a master ratter At the
back of the masters yard was small
house for coal, etc., which had been
invaded by rats from across the alley.
The dog had made many attempts to
catch them in the house, but they al
ways escaped through crack at the
back.
One day the dog rushed to the floor
with furious barking, but, instead OF
going in as usual, he scampered round
the house and shook the life out OF
more than one rat He had reasoned
his course of action out, his previous
experience having taught him it was
useless to try to catch them in the
house.-Chicago Tribune.

UNION SERVICE

Notwithstanding the threatening
weather and the fact that first Mon
day is hard day on most OF our
citizens, a creditable crowd gathered
the Tabernacle Monday night to enter
into the second service of the series,
The service was introduced by series
of songs after which the congregation
was led in prayer by Rev. Mr.. Cotton.
The sermon of the evening was
preached by DR.. T. A. Wharton, and
was both an interesting and very forci-
BILE presentation of the subject OF
Confession. With increasing clear
ness he developed his theme and with
the most pertinent and appropriate IL
lustration he emphasized each point.
Surely no one present who was feellng
the influence of the Spirit moving him
toward the religious life, could but be
helped and encouraged. After an IN
vitation to those interested, the serv-
ice was Closeu DN pi aSVi W

The little mother, of scarcely more
than 100 pounds weight, held Bob Tay-
lor, who, true to nature, must have the
best place when anything is around
for him or not.
The mother told me that Ed Car
mack, Jr., had been remembered al

"John /. is the heaviest; he has two
teeth and the others have none; he
and Ed Carmack can crawl, Bob Tay-
lor can't crawl yet"
She said, Il have heard that the
Senator and Governor want to take
their namesakes, Ed Carmack and
John l.. and raise them, but they
can't be separated But II, when they
are 8 or 10 years old, the three great

Arbor Day May 10th.

Gov. Cobb has designated May 10th
as Arbor Day. In his proclamation he
says:
''The fruits of Names material pros
perity and development will depend to
very great extent upon the care and
treatment bestowed upon her greatest
natural heritage, the forests. A public
sentiment in favor of their reasonable
preservation and increase will save to
succeeding generations the same charms
of scenery and the same economic ad-
vantages now enjoyed by our own, and
this sentiment should be fostered and
encouraged by all.
"While that spring holiday, created
by act of legislature and known as Ar
Dor Day, was originally intended to pro-
mote the planting of trees, shrubs and
vines for the purpose of adjournment, it
may we'll possess deeper and more vita
significance, and its observance should
incline the people of Maine to realize
the vast Importance of the forests, and
to insist that their interests in them be
safeguarded and perpetuated."
ae recommends that citizens general
ly join with the teachers and children
of the schools in observing the day.

THE ORIGIN OF A GREAT INVENTION

Writing of the career of George
Westinghouse in the May Every body's.
Paul Latzke says that the idea of the
air.brake was suggested to the inventor,
when little more than boy, in the fol
lowing fashion:
''On one of the daily trips of young
Westinghouse from Schenectady to the
foundry at Troy, his train was held up
by a bad wreck. Two freights had come
together in a head-on collision on a
piece of straight track. The engineers
had seen the danger plainly, but by the
time the hand brakes were brought into
play it was too late. The young man
allowed these facts to sink into his
mind. Then he said to one OF the train
hands:

control their trains from the cab. the
wreck could have been prevented,
couldn't it?'
