Miss Kaye met him in the west,
where she was travelling with Miss

Count lIolstetn appeared at every city
and always at the same hotel where
Miss Kaye was stopping, The counts
mother was with him; the transconti'

The next steamer took them to Eu-
rope, where Miss Kaye has been ever

the continent, even to Egypt up the
Nile and into the Holy Land
With her beauty and her wealth she
found It easy to be presented at the
courts of Europe Her social sue

sides a special vintage of champagne,
in which numerous toasts to the bride
to-be were tossed off.
But all that iollity is with the dead
now-both sides would forget in a
new love. Mrs Kemp has another
husband, and even Mrs. Hunnewell No.

fray that was Mrs Hunnewell is now
the wife of J. s. Tooker. SO of the
three marriages and the six persons
involved, only Miss Kaye has not been
married twice.

bride, are very wealthy, but care little

Will Enforce the Law.

In an interview today wit h Marshal Marsh regarding the rigidness of the quarantine of all parties who have been exposed to small. pox, and which in most cases will go into effect tomor- row, the marshal stated that he had no alternative in the matter. That all of the parties who came under the ban had been officially notified of what was expected of them, and that any violation of the quarantine law would be rig idly enforced. And without re gard to any consideration, if any of these parties appear outside of their premises within ten days after the day designat. ed for them to remain confined, it would necessitate immediately placing them in the pest house, and that they would stay there too. In this enforcement, the marshal is backed by the unani nous sanction of the mayor and council.

IS NOW A CERTAINTY
The Farmers Union Warehouse Will Be
 Built At Prescott.

The Nevada County Farmers Union met yesterday at New Sa- lem, and among other important matters considered was the ware house situation. It was the sent iment of the meeting that the building committee, composed of Calvin Jones, G. F. Cummins, P. Norman, w. c. Felts, Lee Dil. lard, M. B. Sigler and Will Thompson, proceed at once to erect a suitable warehouse in Prescott and that they be un- tramelled in their operations. The committe is to select the site for the building, the materi- al of which it is to be constructed and the dimensions.
 It is not settled yet whether the building will be erected in the fire district, or at some other point. If the former, it will re. quire $4 ,00O to construct a build ing to conform to to the city's re- quirements, but if a sheet iron or steel construction is built, the cost will be reduced to S25O0 but the site will naturally be more remote.
 And while the details are as yet unsettled, the fact that a warehouse is to be built in Pres colt is an absolute certainty.

Will Fight 2-Ce nj Rate.

The establishment of the three-cent passenger rate on all railroads in Arkansas is eXpec t. ed within short time. Persist ent rumors are current in rail road circles to the effect that the various railroads in Arkansas af . fected by the new two-cent pas senger rate law which was only recently enacted by the Arkan- sas legislature, will re-install the old rate of three cents with the view of contesting the constitu- tionality of the new law.
 It has been learned from relia- ble sources that it the intention of the railroads to test the legali- ty of the new twO-cent rate law in Arkansas and that in order to do so the various trunk lines propose e to reinState the former rate of three cent per mile in direct op- position to the new statue which says that only twO-c cents shall be charged.

Hotel Meeting.

The promoters of the new ho- tel met last night at the office of Sam o. Logan.

When the full amount is secured, another meet ing will be called, when the de- tails of the construction will be outlined. It is known now, how ever, the original plan of having store rooms beneath has been abandoned; the building will be strictly hotel, with lower floor compressing office, dining room. kitchen, family rooms, parlor, sample rooms, etc.
