her mother and father and herself

There was moments awful silence,

OF so much emotion, came over and
awkwardly patted the two on the back

At least that is what the widow
thought She put on her wedding
gown and repaired to st. Paul's Cath
olic church, where the ceremony was
to be performed. The wedding guests
we're there and the bride was smiling
happily.
But the smile changed from natural

widow, respondent in her wedding

toned her friends. She was game.

The widow, however, smiled on.
She was in love and love is ever
ready to find excuses. She only grew
indignant when her friends exchanged
meaning smiles and openly expressed
their somewhat scornful pity.
But the bridegroom came not. Mes.
sengers were dispatched to seek him
but they could not find him. They
limited that his heart had failed him

ate of Senator Clark in the early days

Butte girl was as popular socially as
any other rich and winsome girl. She
had many admirers and would-be low

famous, but they could not touch her
heart. Always she remembered the
youth back in Butte who was clerking
in a cab office at $50 month.
This summer. when she went back
to Montana, her fathers estate was
divided, and Miss Largey received as
her share just S27 less than million
