HUB WEDDING IN
THE L|MELICHT
Aged Bridegroom and His
Young Wife, Once Di-

IA FEW MOONLIGHT STROLLS
Old Man Now Cherries, Expects to
Once Again Fill His Life
With Romance.
A FEW MOONLIGHT STROLLS

Crown Point, Ind Sept. 17.-(Special.
Another Chicago couple who wed
here are examples of an old mans
darling and Christopher Thomas of
Evanston.
According to Thomas. both bride and
groom were content with life and each
other until it was discovered that they
were illegally united because of the law
forbidding Divorces to marry within
one year after a decree has been grant
ed Thomas was divorced from his first
wife in October, 1907 and married Mrs.
Mary Brooks at Crown Point the fol-
lowing January. Thomas is 66 years
old and his bride is 80.
But we love each other just as much,
as ever said the old man as he sat in
a window in his cheerless home at 426
LaSalle avenue. in Chicago. I'VE are
sweethearts still and my wife says that
just as soon is the years is up. which
will be only next month, we will be
married and have our honeymoon all
over again"
The old man rocked in silence while
contemplative smile stole over his
face and a sparkle CLEANED from his
dim old eyes.
We both loved at first sight" he re-
sumed, MY first wife had not yet Sc
cured all the papers for her decree;
but that was settled soon, and we de-
cided to marry at once. We knew about
the law, and so we wrote to news
paper bureau to learn whether it would
| be legal if we married at Crown Point.
| They answered the next day that it
would.
Three Times She Wavered.

such procedure. Three times we went
down to Crown Point. but each time
my wife backed out, fearing that it
would not be right At last I told her
it must be then or never. She took me
at my word and we were married by
a Baptist minister, for she was a mem
Der of the Baptist church.
"Old as 1 am, l think 1 was never so
happy as I was with my little wife
That lasted five months. and then one

TROUBLE IN STORE
FOR LAW V|OLATORS
Secretary of Health Board
Points Out How Sewer
Offal Poisoned Fruit.
ORDINANCE WILL Be EFFECTIVE
DR.. w. D. Weis Will Let the Blame
Fall On the Heads Where
It Belongs.

There is trouble in store for the vi
olater of the newest city health ordi-
nance which was adopted by the council
at it's regular meeting last Tuesday
night.
An ordinance fathered by DIR. w. ID.
Weis. secretary of the board of health
prohibits the sale of fruit for human
consumption which has been exposed
ON the sidewalks or in peddlers' wagons.
The ordinance provides a fine of from
s5 to 500 and was passed purposely to
urge the laggards into the fold for the
benefit of the city's health.
DIR. Weis proposes to let the law take
its course irrespective Of whom it may
strike.
Request Is Long Standing.
Several months go a personal can
vass among the fruit dealers asking
them to take their fruit from the side
walk Most of them complied cheer
fully with the request and since ther
have admitted that it has worked nc
handicap in their sales. Others, how
ever, have persisted in selling unclear
and dusty fruit to the people who die
not stop to think and it is to protect
the law abiding dealer that the ordi-
nance was passed.
Some time ago DIR. Weis pointed oui
glaring example of how fruit i:
poisoned with germs.
The sewer on Clinton street which
carries all the sewage of the hospita
which at the time housed typhoid pa
| tients was being cleaned in the Ham
mond style. The sewage was. scoopet
from the bottom of the sewer and pileo
| on the streets for the city wagons t
Maui away. 1t was of course, impos
sible to clean up every particle and tn
1 remainder was left to dry and turn int
dust. A gust of wind naturally car
ried the germ laden dust through al
and according. to the laws of nature an
| gravity some of it was deposited O
the fruit standing on the sidewalk
near Clinton street. The first perso
coming along and buying of this frui
gets not only the fruit but the dust an
the germs in the bargain. The result
tlrat the consumer eats the germ int
his system and wonders where he go
his disease from.

ASKS FOR PROTECTION
Railway Clerks Petition Government to
install Safety Devices

Railway mail clerks in all parts of
he country are alarmed over an an
nouncement made by the postofice de-
partment to the effect that they will be
held responsible for all damages to per
sons and property caused by careless
delivery Of mail at catch stations. In
other words, if clerk in throwing a
mail bag from swiftly moving train
happens to hit some one loafng on the
depot platform and breaks his head he
will be responsible for any damages
that the courts may allow.
Accompanying the notice IS the ac-
count of damage case recently tried
by a jury in Ohio and in which the mail
clerk compromised by paying $500. The
department declares that not only are
the railroads going to hold the mail
clerks responsible, but that the depart
ment will in addition assess a fine for
violation of the rules for handling
pouches when thrown off of moving
trains
The mail clerks declare that the eff
forts to hold them responsible is unfair,
because the government has been crimi-
nally slow in providing safe means of
delivery of mail from moving trains.
It is claimed that there are a number
of devices on the market which make
ii perfectly safe to throw a mail pouch
off train going at almost any rate of
speed.
A number Of these devices have been
tested by the government and one or
two Of them have been found to be
efficient. Despite this fact, the govern
ment delays in providing such faciH-
ties, choosing rather to stand the risk
Of loss of mails and damage to persons
and property. The official order Of the
railway mail clerks, therefore, has petit
ton the department. to take speedy ac-
ton toward providing safe mail
catch.

Of the entire $50 acres only about
two am half acres are waste land.
There is half an acre Of slough on the
north line to which the drainage lines
for that part of the farm run and an
other similar swamp-hole of about two
acres on the west line to which several
OF the main drainage lines run.
In the years Senator Stephenson has
owned this farm it has appreciated to
over 800 an acre, exclusive Of stock
machinery. 1t is. yearly becoming
more valuable. The shipment of milk
to Chicago amounts now to an average
Of thirty 38-gallon cans daily, while
it runs as high at times as fifty cans
As the high-priced acreage in the
vicinity OF Kenosha is turned to truck
farming more and more every year,
there is an increasing demand for milk
and cream from outside farms, and the
time is probably near at hand when the
milk and cream from the 0cephenson
farm will all be demanded at home,
instead of being shipped to Chicago
1t could be sold in Kenosha now if the
farm would deliver it to customers.
About fifteen men are employed on
this big farm and comfortable board
ing house stands in the handsome lawn
alongside Of the pleasant home of the
superintendent. The labor in the sugar
beet and cabbage fields is contracted
for by the acre. Senator Stephenson
always visits the property during the
state fair week and at all times takes
a keen interest in it's affairs. Many
of the horses reared here are sent
north for the use Of the Stephenson
lumber companies

COOP ROADS CONVENTION
People Favoring Improvement of High
ways to Meet in Milwaukee

EeOpl0 8 dV0Ilng Improvement OF High
ways TO Meet in Milwaukee
Preparations are being made for one
O. the biggest good roads conventions
ever held in the country. The first
state. convention, held last year, had
nearly two thousand members present,
and a permanent organization was
formed with Ex-Governor Hoard as
president.
This state convention was considera-
bly, larger than any of the national
good road gatherings that have been
held for many years, and from the in
te1est already manifested it seems
probable that there will be, more dele
gates present this year than last
Every town chairman in the state
has been asked to suggest the names
of prominent farmers in his locality
who will be appointed as delegates.
The State Good Roads Association is
very much interested in the amendment
to the state institution which must be
passed by the people in our November
elections before our state can give state
rooney to aid the farmers to pay for
building good roads. This amendment
will doubtless be very thoroughly dis
cussed.
The committee aims to make this
convention better than the one held
last year. It is planned, in SO far as
time will permit, to give each dele
gate who desires it an opportunity to
discuss any of the questions under dis
cussion. The meeting will not be held
on the state fair groundA as last year,
but in some large hall down town. The
place will be announced later.

RAHR TO SPEAK
Kenosha Orator Named by State Com

Kenosha Orator Named by State Com
mittee as One of the spellbinders
Louis F. Rahr, is in receipt of let
tiers from Chairman w. D. Conner of
the Republican State Central Committee
and T. Coleman Du Point, director of
the Speakers Committee of the Repub-
lican National Committee informing
him that his name has been suggested
before each of the two committees to
do some stump speaking in the inter
ests Of the Republican party during the
coming campaign. With his past
record to assist him, Rahr regards this
nomination almost equivalent to an
election.
Mr.. Rahr did effective work in both
the campaign of 1900 and the campaign
of 1904. In the former campaign, he
was only seventeen years old at the
occasion of his first political speech.
in both of these campaigns he made
arrangements with local committees of
the Republican party and in this way
became known to the members of the
state committee by whom his name was
brought before the National Committee.
Mr.. Rahr is already preparing his
speeches in addition to his law studies,
having made two special trips to Madi-
SOL this summer for the purpose of
gathering statistics. lie is as yet some
what undecided as to whether or not
to devote his entire time during the
next few months to this work, or to
do it in addition to his other work and
studies.

CABBAGE CROP rs A FAILURE
Kenosla County Farmers Say at Least
Half of Acreage is Dead on Fields
County Clerk,
wifi

Although last years abundance of
cabbage in this vicinity resulted in poor
prices for the product, and the acreage
was consequently cut down by almost
half, the crop this year will be even
smaller than was expected With the
acreage reduced by large percentage,
farmers from Kenosha county declare
that the crop on these acres will be
poorer by at least SO per cent than it
was during the past year. This will re
suit in the total crop scarcely being one
quarter of that produced in the county
last year. Those farmers fortunate
enough in having cabbage however, will
realize much better price on their
crop than during the past years. The
dry weather of the past month has been
responsible for the failure in the crop,
enrmous quantities ofsthe vegetable ~
ing dead On the fields.
In place of the cabbage, a large MUIR
Der of farmers have devoted their at
tention to sugar beets and cultivators
OF the beet will be well repaid, the crop
being large, with every indication Of re-
.ceiving a good price.

ten out of the church into the world
to allow us to think of all the good
being in the church, and of the world
as being nothing but evil. Religion
is taking on secular. in distinction

consciousness to which nothing that
