WOelfOlk-0'Brien.

Sylvester O'Brieu, of St. Paul
and Miss Barbara Voolfolk, OF
near this city were united In
marriage at st Paul Catholic
Church; Tuesday morning at II
o'clock by Rev. Father Ernst.
The attendants were VIM Wool
folk and Miss Nora Whelan, of
Stoutsville, a brother and cous-
in. of the bride. After the cere.
mony they drove to the home of
the bride where dinner was
served to a few of their friends.
Mr.. O'Brien is a gentlemanly,
industrious young man OF bright
intellect and good moral habits
and will make a kind and
thoughtful husband. His wife
is daughter of a farmer resid-
ing near Monroe City and is a
young lady of pleasing person

Marriage Should Not End Courtesy.

A great many persons seem
t. think that the marriage GER
emory absolves them from all
courtesies aad attentions to the
person whom they have wed.
After that they are careless,
both as to manners and clothes,
when they are at home.
This is a fatal mistake. Be-
cause a woman is married is no
excuse for her going untidy
about the house and telling her
husband home truths that hurt
his vanity. Because a woman
is his wife, gives man no right
to say things to her he would
not dare to say to any other
lady who possessed a big able,
bodied brother.
Good manners are the pre-.
sentative of peace and concord,
aud are warranted to keep peace
and happiness in any climate

TO Lead to ApOplexy

People who suffer with head
ache, giddlness, palpitation,
bad taste in the mouth. drowsi-
ness, distress after eating, and
any of the other distressing re-
suits OF indigestion, are in serl-
Gus danger. Their digestive or
gans cannot care for the food
properly and hence the coats OF
tue blood vessels in the brain
get little nourishment, become
brittle, and finally yield to the
fierce blood pressure and one is
then said to have a SHOCK" be
paralyzed, or die from apo
plexy.
In all diseases of digestion
aud nutrition the prescription
called Mi-o-na has proven itself
of great value. 1t is relied up
on today as certainty to re-
lieve the worst troubles of indi-
gestion and make a complete
cure.
That Milo ma will cure the
worst forms of stomach trouble,
cancer excepted, and give quick
relief in indigestion is proven
by the guarantee L. NJ. Wood
give with every 5O-ceut box to
refund the money unless Mi.o-na
cures. A guarantee like this
must inspire confidence.

Broken Rails and Railroad Accidents

side by SIDE with the alarming
growth in the numOrr Of rail
road accidents which has been
noticeable during the past WIN
ter, there has been an increasing
frequency in the breakage of
the steel rails, upon which. at
ter all, the security Of rail- DAD
travel Immediately depends.
There is evidence that not a
few Of the disas tiers have been
caused directly by these broken
rails; and there can be little
doubt that many OF the unex-
planned accidents have been due
to a similar Cause. ccordiug
10 one Of our technical contem.
poraries, an engineer who was
present at a recent railroad
wreck stated within d distance
OF one mile in the vicinity OF
the wreck. lie counted nineteen
broken rails which had been re.
moved from the track during
the winter.
The writer was recently Civ
en- an opportunity to examine an
utficia report, made to the pres
ident Of certain trunk line, on
the subject of broken rails; and
he was mbtouuded to learn
that, during two months of the
present winter, there had oc
CURED on this road over 600
cases of broken rails. When we
remember that every such
break puts the trains in immedi-
ate peril o. derailment, we are
filed with wonderment, not
that there are so many. but
that there are so few, disastrous
accidents.
Time was when American
rails, bought in the open mar.
ket and rolled to the specifica-
tions Of the engineers of the
railroads, and by them held
strictly to these pecihcations
were equal TO any in the world.
To-day the rails that are receiv-
ed from the one colossal concern
which can furnish them, are of
the very poorest quality-a con.
slant and positively fearful
menace to every passenger that
rides over them.
The depreciation, rapid de-
probation, in the quality OF
rails is due to the introduction
by the makers of cheaper and
quicker methods OF manufac-
ure.
These methods have beer
adopted with single eye. no,
TO the Improvement of quality
but to the increase OF profits
on the output.
That the broken rail is Z
growing peril will be realized
when we state that during thC
past few years, the rails sup
piled to the railroads by tn,
concern which has III. mouopo
ly of their mann lure, hav
become so poor quality, tina
hreakages nave soue up seveIa
hundred per cent.
Aud every broken rail is a
invition to a railroad disaster
The blame for the presen
alarming conditions lies then a
the door of the manufacturers
This fact will be fully appreci
ated, when we have made tn

THE SALToN SEA.

Three weeks ago this morning THE OASIS editor was in the office of the First Assistant Secretary of State at Washington, to attend a matter of business before the Department, and after his mission had been accomplished, the Assist ant Secretary, MT. Robert Bacon, asked, point blank:
 What shall we do with the Salton Sea?"
 To the inquiry put so direct Mir. Bird made instant reply:
 Let the Salton Sea fill to the level of the ocean, after which it will cut channel to the Gulf of California, which can be deepened, if necessary, to permit navigation by sea going craft, and the United States will then have upon it's southwestern border what the gen. eral government failed to get when 1t made the Gadsden purchase at a cost of s15,000,00O-a seaport or seaports upon the gulf"
 MT. Bacon expressed an opinion that the people whose farms and homes in the Imperial valley are threatened and will be obliterated, are to be considered, and that the damage that will be done them un- less the Sea be controlled will be at least ten million of dollars.
 To that the reply was made that the general government could and should reimburse those people, for all damages. No one ap- preciates h II a fable benefit that would result to South ern California and all of Arizona to have at that place great body of navigable water, with deep sea ports on all sides where navies might ride in safety and where  would grow surely great conner cial cities, any one of which would speedily reach greater valuations, expressed in millions, than the loss now threatened by sinking beneath the sea the farms and set dement's in the Imperial Valley, without taking into consideration the commercial and agricultural development that would follow upon bringing Arizona in touch with deep sea navigation.
 No one has given any thought to the great benefits that would en- sue should the Salton Sea continue
