Marriage Vows.

fesses She Does Not Love the
Man Twice Her Age
She Married.

Those who witnessed the marriage cere-
mony of Adam Legler of Hastings and
Evelyn McClntock, the bride of H.
who left her husband after three days, are
not greatly surprised at the turn the affair
back and appeared to be acting against
her own wishes in the matter. They told
one of the clerks in the office they had
known each other for only two weeks.
Mr.. Legler, on the other hand was in a
very joyful mood. He applied for the
license first Friday evening, but because of
the youth of the bride he had to return to
Waterloo and secure the consent of her
father. When he returned to the office
Saturday he sang out cheerfully to Mar
riage Clerk Furay, You fellows in Doug
las county are slow to let us fellows from
the west come here and marry your good
looking young women"

Homestead-Fire in Three States.
With many towns in three States in
danger and the flames spreading rapidly
from dozen points in Canada, the for
est fires added three Thursday to their
number of deaths and vast losses to the
millions of dollars worth of property they
have destroyed. After sending his wife
and two small children to safety at a

nesniemi, with his two older sCns, respec-
lively II and IA years old, met death

which the entire population has been night
ing. A fire entered the city of Wash
burn, Wis, and caused 100000 loss at
latest reports. Fire of incendiary origin
menaced Hibbing, Mimi, sixty miles north
of Duluth. when several buildings were
burned. The blaze, it is said, was start
ed by MOntenegrans who had been EJECT
ed from their homes for the non-payment
of rent. Forest fires destroyed the BUSH
ness section of Peshtigo, Wis. Several
hundred are homeless; loss about $780,
600. The residence section was saved by
great efforts. A solid wall of flames
twenty-five miles in length is said to
stretch from Grand Marais to Chicago
bay on the international boundary line.
The flames are devouring everything in
the Whitefish valley. There is bad fire
at Silver Mountain and Gunfint. Two
Pigeon River lumber camps on the inter-
national boundary have been destroyed.

Inc labor holiday and hot weather to
some extent affected the course of busi-
ness. Movements of commodities are seen
to be comparatively lower and crop mar.

the volume of payments through the
banks makes low aggregate. Otherwise,
the dominant conditions remain enAlurag-
ing, the recent improvement being sus-
tanned in the leading industries and distri-
button of general merchandise.
Fall buying is now in full swing and
extends TO a wider variety of staples and
finished products. Operations in dry
goods, clothing and footwear run into
gratifying totals, with the attendance of
outside buyers exceeding all previous rec
ords for the season.
heavyweight apparel, woolens and
blankets ordered for early forwarding
compare favorably with a year ago, and
there is a stronger demand for food pro-
ducts, furniture, leather goods and hard
ware.
The general buying confirms previous
advices that stocks at most interior points
are low, bat the repleuishing process pro-
ceeds cautiously, and there is no danger
that anticipations of future requirements
will be overestimated.
Mercantile credits appear to be now in
a healthy position, money is more plenti-
full throughout the agricultural sections,

ers to secure all possible advantageous
discounts on purchases at this time.

Lad Who Failed to Get Into Army
Shoots Himself with Revolver.
Otto Schuchardt, 10 years old, son OF
Paul I. Schuchardt, owner of book
bindery in Chicago, because he had been
refused enlistment in the United States
army at Fort Sheridan, attempted to COM
NIT suicide at Highland Park by shoot
ing himself in the right side of the head
with a revolver. He is in a serious con-
dition. For the past several weeks the
boy had expressed a desre to join the
army and become a soldier, telling his
father that he had watched the army men
at Fort Sheridan and that he had become
fascinated with their striking uniforms.
His father sought to convince the boy that
it would be impossible for him to enlist
in the army because he was only 10 years
old, but the other morning the youth left
home, telling his mother that he was going
TO Fort Sheridan to try to enlist. After
he had been told by the army officers that
he was too young to become a soldier the
boy started back home. Shortly before
noon John Nelson, the marshal of High
land Park, while walking in the railroad
yards, heard four shots and found the boy
lying on the ground.

TWO DEAD IN TUNNEL WORK.
Double Fatality Occurs in Construct
ing Michigan Central Bore

Double Fatality Occurs in Construct
ing Michigan Central Bore.
The first double fatality to be charged
to the construction of the Michigan Cen
trail tunnel under the Detroit river occur
red early Tuesday in shaft No. of the
Canadian approach to the tunnel, when
two men were suffocated to death by
smoke from burning timbers and tar paper
in the shaft and two others were tempo
rarily overcome by smoke while attempt
ing to enter the shaft in a rescue party.
The dead are w. r. Kimball, superin-
tendent of shafts Nos. l and 2, and Bert
johnson, carpenter In the hospital are
Bert Schuman, shaft superintendent, and
Charles Cakebread, a Windsor city fire
man. The fire was put out about 3 a. m,
after the air pressure, maintained con-
stantly for the tunnel work, had been sac
rifced for the blowing out of the smoke
and fumes that hindered the rescue and
salvage operations. The blaze was con-
fined to the tinnbers constituting the false
work inside the cement wall and the loss
will probably not exceed 81 600 or $1,000,
enough for time the flames threatened
to extend to the timber work beyond bhe
cement construction, where heavy loss
would have resulted. About 200 men were
working in the tunnel when the fire broke
out, and there was a panic when the
alarm was given. Despite the danger
from fire, it was necessary to pass the
men slowly through the air lock, as they
had been working under air pressure.

Assistant Secretary Of the Treasury
Coolige and Chief Montgomery of the
customs division of that department
have presented TO Senator Burrows, as
the representative of the Senate COM
mittee on finance, the views of the de-
partment as to the changes believed to
be necessary in the administrative fea-
lures of the tariff law. Among the rec
concentrations was one for an increase
from 500 to $500 of the exemption
made in favor of Americans returning
from abroad. The department also
would abolish the fee system now ex-
tensively employed throughout the Gus
toms service and put merchandise sent
through the mails on the same footing
as that sent through the regular Gus
toms channels.
