Century Old Bride to Wed Man
1902.

Tate Springs, Tenn, July IA
bridegroom of 102 is waiting for the
sweetheart who has ben true to him
for eighty years since the day when
a girl of twenty she plighted her
troth. John b. Bundren, the patri-
arch of Tate Springs, who in his old
age came back to enjoy the fortune
he had made in his youth wed
on August rs, her one hundredth
birthday, Miss Roes Mcclure, on the
very spot, now included in his es-
tate, where he won her consent SO
long ago.
Then the family of Miss Rose. who
had come from England, frowned on
the suit of the impulsive boy, and TO
seperate the love-sick pair sent the
girl to her English home in
Preston. Lancashire. Bundren, in de-
spair, went TO the gold fields, and
yesterday he returned here unwed to
pass the remainder of his life and the
scenes of his vanished happiness.
Bundren conceived the idea of hav-
ing a reunion at his home of those
OF his early associates who might
still be living and in the course OF
his preparations learned of the adj
dress of Rose Mcclure. Correspon'
dence followed and the two old lovers
renewed their VOWS. The invitations
to the reunion become wedding cards
and 200 guests all more thanh inety
will respond. Some of Bundren's
friends have crossed the ocean to
escort the aged bride to her new
home. She will arrive this month
Love is like good wine," said Bum
dren in discussing the situation. III

No Bottom Found In Any of the Wells
 Bored In curaeoa. t~
 Curacoa Is one of the queerest little islands in the Caribbean sea. It lies sixty miles north of Venezuela, Is about sixty miles long and twelve or four teen miles wide and 1t has a popula- ton of more than 50,OOO.
 There Is no means of procuring fresh water on the island except by saving rainwater in reservoirs. A number of wells have been bored under the su- pervision of the Dutch government to which 1t belongs, but each ended in a failure.
 A curious statement regarding these borings is made by the inhabitants of the island. They saw that in each and every case after certain depth was reached the tools dropped out of sight, indicating that there is no solid foundation to the island. The borings were made in low places and through hills and in about thirty different places, each with the same ultimate result A few wells have been dug to lesser depth and brackish, un- pleasant tasting water is obtained, fit only for manufacturing purposes.
 The approach of the rainy season Is always an interesting time. The wa ter In the reservoir Is low at this time, and the natives eagerly await the op portunity to gather a fresh supply. Clothing is never washed there in fresh water. but at all hours of the day the beach is alive with women beating the clothes with clubs on the rocks.-Buffalo News.

Men Who, Had They Lived, Might
 Have Changed History.
 Julius Caesar was assassinated when he had almost completed the task of consolidating the administration and dominion of the Roman empire, and his death opened the way to that des- potism and corruption which ultimate ly undid his work. Henry of Navarro was killed when he had almost healed the differences between Catholic and Protestant which subsequently rent not only France, but Europe, and Will liam the Silent also fell when he was on the point of uniting the Netherland provinces into compact barrier against the encroachments of Spain.
 Tn English history Lord Give died at the moment when he was the one man who could have saved the American colonies and kept the Anglo-Saxon race united. But there is the case of Mira beau. He was literally the one man in France who could have averted the horrors of the revolution, saved and reformed the monarchy and so spared Europe the murderous career of Napo- leon and all the devastation 1t brought. If he had lived ten or even five years longer, the history not only of France, but of Europe and the world, would fcient to say that he would have made both Robespierre and Napoleon impos- eihle.-strand Magazine.
