united negro couple with this cere.
mony:
Jim, will you take Bet
Without any regret,
To love and cherish
Till one OF you perish,
And Is laid under the sod,
So help you God?
Jim having given the usual af-
firmative answer, Judge Stoble turn
ed to Bet: so
Bet. will you take Jim
And cling to him,
Both out and in,
Through thick and thin.
Holding him to your heart,
Till death you part?
Bet modestly acquiesced, and the
newly married couple were dis
missed with this benediction:
Through life's alternative joy and
strife,
l now pronounce you man and wife.

And salute your bride you dusky

VALUE OF IMMIGRANTS.
Much Of the Progress In Some Coun,
tries Due to Them.

"One OF the best evidences of the
value Of immigration to a country
like this" remarked DR.. Wilbur L
Comack. Of Boston, to a New York
Telegram reporter, "is the fact that
Canada, Australia, South Africa and
other progressive countries are real
izing that much OF odr rapid advance
Is due to immigration and are bidding
eagerly for a portion Of the thousands
who will naturally leave the older
countries during the next few years.
THE fact that the number Of de-
sirable immigrants is small must not
be overlooked, and when a wideawake
country like Australia begins to bid,
as 1t Is bidding. directly to the worthy
individual it means that we are liable
to get fewer desirable men and wo-
men and more undesirables.
I'm Australia the government is
making an appeal to the agricultural
immigrant. Not only are homesteads
offered. but the State will finance any
man who wants to till the soil.
I'VE cannot underestimate the
worth OF such immigrants as Austria
liza Is attracting. These are the men
We need In the United States, and the
which We are now throwing away an
nually on worthless mob OF idlers

the sooner we will end all Of our

He Rebuies . Party of Girls vino

(From the New York Sun.y

How President Roosevelt severely

tional Park Seminary at Forest Glen.
Nd. for riding past him. Thanksgiv-
Ing Day In Rock Creek Park. and how
he caused the horse one OF the girls
was riding to rear and jump by strik-
Ing II with his riding whip Is told In
a story which has Just leaked out and
been confirmed today by Miss e. I.
Sisson. teacher In the school. who was
the chaperon for the party.
Miss Sisson and three of the girls OF
the institution, whose names are with
held. went for horseback ride
through Rock Creek Park In the crisp
air of Thanksgiving morning. AS they
were. jogging along one of the tree
lined roads OF the national reserve
they saw q party ahead of them,
which included two women and two
men. As they closed up the gap be-
tween the two parties Miss, sisson
says she recognised one Of the men as
President Roosevelt.
For some time the Seminary party
rode slowly behind the president and
his party. But the spirited animals
wanted to 30 faster. declares Miss Sis
son. and finally the girls galloped past
the presidential party. When they
slowed their horses down again a few
minutes later they heard rapid hoof-
beats behind them. The rider was
pressing his horse hard and he soon
overlook them.
"As we were riding four abreast at
the time the presidents horse crowd
ed us no little as he dashed past" said
Miss sisson. continuing the narrative.
"As he brushed past his horse struck
the foot Of one Of the young ladies,
knocking II from tie stirrup. and o
blow from the presidents crop fell on
che horses flank. The young woman's
horse reared. and but for her GOODNESS
and admirable horsemanship she
