Man Gets Divorce, EIopes Next Minute
Chicago.-With divorce decree
less than three hours old in one pocket
and a marriage license, on which the
ink had scarcely dried in another,
Louis +. Brown, 31S Winthrop avenue,
general manager Of Burton Holmes
Travelogue bureau, stepped before the
Rev. H. b. Nicholson of Crown Point,
Ind, and was married to Miss Edith
II Gould, 313 Winthrop avenue, Chi
cago, yesterday afternoon.
SO hurried was the ceremony that
MIR. Mrown and his bride had no time
to brush from their garments the dust
which had settled upon them in their
hurried trip from Chicago to the In
diana Gretna Green in large red au-
tomobile.
So short was the schedule upon
which they were travelling that there
was no time for the minister to kiss
the bride before the newly married
couple and MIR. Holmes, who had ac-
companied them to Crown Point made
a dash for the train which brought
them back to Chicago just in time for
the lecturer to take the platform at
Orchestra hall. while his manager de-
serted for brief time the new Mrs.
Brown and completed arrangements
for the trip to ST Louis, which will

Des Moines.-Four twenty dollar bills
and probably small fortune to their
owner who had less business judy
ment than love for poetry, was found
by purchaser recently at the Fjke
second hand book store, between the
leaves of sheep bound copy of Burns
poems. Z
Picking up the book at random and
running over the leaves his attention
was suddenly directed to the paper
bills which were ingeniously inserted
between it's leaves. Mr.. Fike had been
owner of the book for six months
had handled it at least twenty times
and it had been in the hands of others
that many times without its valuable
secret being discovered. Worn and
thumbed the book did not attract buy
ers and lay on the shelf with It's small
fortune ring in its folds. The man who
found it's treasure took the precaution
to ask the price. He had the price con-
f1rmed and they laying down the 20
cent piece asked the seller If contents
went with the book. Assured that they

Women Husk Corr. for Church.


Ottumwa.---Is husking bee the real
article when the red ear is barred and
a man disguised in a Mother Hubbard
wrapper and sunbonnet acts as chap
eron?
This is question pondered over
with many pretty points by the Ladies'
Aid society of the Methodist church at
Lineville
These energetic women gave an old
fashioned "bee" to raise money to wipe
out the church debt George Rock
hold donated five loads of corn to the
women provided they would husk it
and take 1t to market.
Forty feminine members of the aid
society drove to his house and soon
demonstrated that they possessed no
mean ability in separating the kernels
and cobs from their husks. When the
husking was finished the corn was
loaded in five wagons by the women
and hauled to market, where it was
disposed of and the sum of $94.13 was
realized.
About half dozen men accompan-
led the women on their husking ex-
petition, among whom were the Rev.
John Holland G. w. Hutchinson and
Sam Leachman, in the capacities of
chaperons.
The latter was dressed in a Mother
Hubbard and sunbonnet. Neighboring
farmers endeavored to hire the fair
corn huskers for 10 cents bushel, but
as yet none has accepted.

all over the country, will feel justified
in maintaining his original position,
and that his annual message Will de-
mand those things which he thinks the
country needs. This is Of course the
obvious opinion, but while entertaining
it people everywhere must not lose
sight of the pressure to which the
president is now being subjected by
those ultra conservatives who are glad
to take advantage of the present mon
ey situation to checkmate the White
House.
Remedies Are Numerous.
Within the past week a couple doz-
EN- senators and many representatives
have been in the city, on business OF
various kinds, and it is apparent, from
their talk, and from what one reads In
the newspapers, that nobody can make
any satisfactory guess as to what con-
gress will, or really ought to do, about
providing more elastic currency, anu
the various other phases of the presi-
dents financial policy Remedies are
as thick as blackberries in August and
hardly any two Of them agree. They
come to the president in letters from
flnanciers all over the country, IN
newspaper clippings containing inter-
views with these financiers, in editor
ials from these newspapers, and In
suggestions from members of the two
houses of congress as well as from
members of the cabinet The result,
so far as the president is concerned,
is a babel of ideas, altho they are All
stated in the same tongue. New York,
as usual, leads in these financial ideas,
and perhaps properly. as finance IS the
principal business Of it's leading citt-
zens. The views of those citizenshave
unquestioned value, and yet it is fact
that New York on this subject Is al
ways distrusted by the south and west
New York resents this distrust, and
says what Injuries her Injuries the rest
of the country. But the distrust does
not vanish, and 1t will be found that
whatever New York may recommend
will be by congress and the country
most carefully scrutinized For years
there has been a cry against accept
| ing any suggestions from New YORK
as to currency legislation, and tnat cry
is mainly responsible for the failure of
congress long ago to enact such legis-
lation.
The president must be very wise
man to select from the multiplicity OF
advice which he is receiving that
which will prove to be for the greatest
good of the greatest number, but ne
is not shrinking from the task. and his
plan to recast the financial paragraphs
of his annual message - paragraphs
which were written in the quiet of
Oyster Bay In early September, before
the financial situation had become IN
any sense acute-is an indication OF
/ his desire to do the best that In MIN
lies for the country as whole.

San Bernardino, Cal.-Grest green
frogs that would make a F'renchman's
mouth water are being brought UP
from q we'll between seventy-five ana
eighty feet in depth in the new ceme-
terry tract, north of this city. How
they came there is the puzzltng ques-
ton being asked by the well diggers
and others who have witnessed the
bringing from the bowels of the earth
of these creatures. To make the hnh
still more remarkable. the well Is III
q high and dry section, and no swamp
land within five or more miles. There
are no frogs in the vicinity, and those
who have made a close Investigator
declare that the frogs must live AT
the great depth named. Below the
seyenty-five foot level the we'll Dig
gers encountered a great body of pure
water and it is from this water that
the frogs are obtained. This is taken
as another evidence that beneath this
valley lies a great river Fish nave

Lono Distance SMOKING.


Ted Cooper, student Ut the Uni.
versity of Washington, has discovered
q new smoke which. It b believed, may
become fad, says the Seattle Post
1ntelligencer. While examining soma
glass chemistry tubes he noticed .
long one and wondered how tobacco
smoke would taste through 1t. BY
means OF rubber he attached tho
glass tube and tried 1t. The smoke
was altogether different from that Of
the ordinary pipe, for while passing
through the tube 1t was much cooler!
He attached other tubes until his pipe
was ten feet long and allowed It to-
hang out Of the window. The result
was that the smoke gave a new 0ensaS
ton and one very refreshing.

The state fair management made
great mistake in not appointing
Frank Meredith as one of the judges
of the live stock. Mr.. Meredith has
always been an ardent lover of fine
stock, and from his earliest youth
has made that a study. When he is
talking insurance or theatre you
would hardly suspect he is an au-
thority on livestock also, but once
get him started, aud the way he Will
talk about the points, neck, eyes,
horns, color and coat, is surprise.
He advances the theory that more
can be told of an animals blood and
breeding by the fineness and quality
of the hair than by any other single
point.
Meresse, recently of Salem, but
now of The Dalles, and prying out
the Chronicle, is taking a different
view of things. Ed. has learned
that The Dalles is the most "convinc-
INCEST" place on earth, and he is
now satisfied that The Dalles is the

will be thinking It is the boss city
for peaches.
