Mobile, April 1s.--(special.)-- )--Today the most Interesting subject or conVer- sation has been the hearty and enjoy able dinner given by Colonei E. l.. Russell and Miss Eoline Russell last evening in honor of Miss Jessie Whiting and Mir. Walter Herron' who are so soon to wed.
 II was just the beautiful affair that 0ns would have expected at the hands pf the host and hostess and the orange blossoms under which Miss Whiting seemed to naturally find her place -n the drawing room prior to the playing of the wedding march and the an nouncfnx of dinner, was most becom- ing to this prettiest of Mobile girls whose gown of all white embroidered net and lace made her look unusually stunning.
 Colonel Russell begun the evening by voicing the envy of MT. Heron. Sen ttments of all the men present who were besides MT. W. W. Heron. the bridegroom-elect, Messrs. c. E. Harri- son. Frank Ross, H. Hatcher, l.. C. Dorgan, G. B. Thomas and Frank Yerger.
 Orange blossoms were most certain ly in the air and the perfume of them was waited in from the drawing room, and all went as merrily as the mar riage bells by which the guests found their places. These bells talked for themselves and needed no clapper They said many things in script ruch as Hitch Your Wagon to n Star" which Mir. Heron has surely done, and even without the names they bore in gilt with their accompaniment of q spray of orange blossoms many could have been located for the notes they sounded were telling ones such as ''Even an Oyster May Be Crossed in Love-" and The reason why so few marriages are happy is because young ladies spend their time in making nets, not fin making cages"

ONE MANS TROUBLES.

Some Of Beversee's friends have
suggested that he raise the extra four
dollars by selling his ration; but that
would leave him without anything to
eat. and. besides. he might run up
against some hard regulation against
disposing OF ration allowance.
Beversee's wife is suing him for
separation. The two lived together
quite happily until two or three years
ago. They have been living apart for
a year. Their son. who is seaman
10 years old. made an an,davit year
ago. in which he took sides with his
mother. and alleges that his papa was
very bad man in his treatment Of
Mrs. Beversee. Now. Mr.. Mann 10.
armed with new afhdavit from young
Beversee which tells of the splendid
qualities Of his father. with whom he
is now stopping. In his new affidavit
young Beversee throws some light on
the effect of beer and hot weather
upon affidavlt making: in fact, he
makes 1t appear that the combination
Of lager and high temperature caused
him to make the former affidavit. He
says that after drinking beer all day
in hot weather his mothehr induced
him to go with her to her lawyers
ONCE In the Pulitzer building and
swear to allegations which he now
declares to be untrue.
After Mrs. Beversee's suit had got
under way the court ordered her hus-
band to pay her $40 month. Bev-
ersee was able to pay the amount
at that, time. as he was playing at
night with big uptown orchestra
In addition to his employment in the
Navy Yard band. He is a musician
Of high class. and he says that he
would be able to get employment out
side now but for the meddling of his
wife. He paid the $36 month up to
eight weeks ago, when he found it
impossible to pay that amount out
Of his navy pay.

Hicks daughter-Susie was her
name-came to the county seat and
lived at a boarding house while her
father was locked up awaiting trial.
Lemuel saw her often. Once he told
her he was sorry he ever saw her dad.
Another time, he said he would wish
he had never been born were it not
for the fact that he went into the
mountains TO catch him. In fact,
Lemuel did not know exactly how he
felt
The night before the trial he had a
long talk with her. She stood on the
porch and, as he left her, she play

The people in the mountains say the
prisoner never operated still and
they did not know they were talking
to an officer when they said it.
Hicks could not understand this He
had been captured while making his
fires. but he was discreet enough to
maintain a silence. There was long
examination and the moonshiner was
discharged for lack of evidence
That afternoon he met Susie. Her
face was radiant. She could hardly
speak for gratitude that crowded in
her throat
Say she whispered, 'Yeh amt no

knowed." And the blush that sprang
through the tanned skin told Lemuel
more than words.
He explained the lack OF evidence

MOOnShiner'S
Recruit
By Ernest RGeSer.

The United States marshal who was
compelled by duty TO seek out and ar
rest moonshiners in the mountains of
West Virginia had a hard task His
work received little commentator
and his chances of being toppled over
by a bullet from a tree top were many
The nervous strain while campaign
ing in the wilds was severe and the
mental invention niece ssary to trap
ping a human victim and getting him
out of the region, was the most diff
cult and important work of all.
Every officer who went into the
mountains with the specific intention
of discovering and destroying the still
operated by Bill Hicks, soon fund
out the truth of these statements.
They all failed. Fighting failed, and
Bill was a match for the best of
strategists. They never as much as
saw his still.
One day Hicks came TO town, how
ever, and beside him walked a tall,
angular man of about thirty. Bill
was more powerful in build but he did
not have the cat-tread nor the sinewy
appearance of the Trailer man.
Hicks was a prisoner. His captor-
the lanky young man-was a new dep
uty marshal and on his first trip he
managed to get Bill out of the region
of his old haunts and get the drop
on him." He kept that drop until he
landed his man in jail. Then he went
back in the mountains. found Hicks

drawings, as well as exhibits to be
used as evidence. He was sneakine
away when a young woman, breaking
through the laurel brush, accosted
him.
Yer sneak-a dirty sneak!" she
said
Lemuel Hargis, the deputy, stared
at her a moment and then began to
fidget.
You're the one tibet TUX Bill Hicks
out'en his own neighborhood and
clapped him in Jail, amt yeh?" she
continued. Il wonder whar yeh wus
raised att"
Kentucky" stammered Lemuel,
unable to say anything else.
4 believe yer lynn. Sneaks don't
come frum Kentucky.
Her eyes flashed with scorn and
her slight frame trembled as she said
this.
Il see yer takin' evidence with
yeh," she continued. Suddenly her
eyes grew moist, her fresh lips trem-
bled and her voice was soft and plead
ing. She rested a tiny. brown hand
on the deputy's sleeve.
Say, mister she said, Il dom t
know yeh, but l don't believe yer
nacher-Iy sneakin' like most marshals.
Bill Hicks is my dad-that's why I
called yeh names. Yeh see-I'm-I'm
all alone sence Dad was TUX to jail.
An now yer goin' t send him away.
He'll die in Jail. He amt used to be-
ing indoors"
Lemuel felt throb of pity for the
girl and as compassion increased, self
reproach for bringing sorrow to the
pretty mountain flower increased. He
was not a hardened marshal. He was
new at the business The arrest of
the moonshiner was KS first case and
1t verified the circumstance that in
experience always blundess into mat
tiers of magnitude.
The girl pleaded with him. Her
hand on his arm stole away his senses
Her eyes reproached him. although he
could not understand 1t, when he
made his way out OF the mountains.
