She Pitied $4,000 Tramp.

Butler, Pa. Mrs. Ida M. Hines OF
Parker, has been refused a divorce
from her hobo husband, Harry j.
Hines. Judge Galbraith held that 1t
was not fraud for a man to rnisrepre-
sent his social standing.
Hines appeared in Parker from Gin
cinnati last year. He was typical
hobo, but explained his appearance by
saying he had been in a railroad
wreck and later was robbed of his
money.
Mrs. Hines, then a widow, pitied him
and believed he was worth $4,000 when
he said so. She bought him new
clothes, paid his fare to Butler, paid
for the marriage license, then paid the
preacher who married them.
Then she gave him several hundred
dollars to pay the expenses Of we'd
ding trip, and Hines disappeared.

Diqs Thru Snow for Bride.

Sterling, Ill - Undismayed by eight
miles of snowdrifts, which kept even
the rural mail carriers indoors, Joseph
Beaver, farmer boy, set out yester-
day morning to claim his bride and
married her seven hours after the
hour set for the ceremony. He had to
dig thru drifts from four to six feet
deep The snow ruined his clothes, and
he arrived at the brides home practi-
/, cally exhausted and with both feet
frozen. 1t was necessary to go to the
home Of pastor two miles away to
have the ceremony performed, as the
wedding guests would not come and
the preacher would not brave the drifts
for the marriage fee.

The Mountain Feuds.


The feuds and assassinations which
for ten years have made Breathitt
county, Kentucky, the most infamous
spot in the United States have lately
attracted new attention because OF the
tragic death of the man TO whom,
more than TO anyone else, the reign
of terror was due. 1t would be hard
TO find, even in Greek play, more
dramatic ending to career OF abhor-
rent crime. The man who had become
both political and a financial king OF
his mountain realm; who had de-
bauched the civil life of his state as
well as that of his county, and who
had no one knows how many assas-
sinations to his discredit, was finally
shot down in cold blood, in his own
store, by the son whom he had al
lowed TO grow up in untaught, unre-
strained drunken viciousness. Moth
ing stranger exists in the civilization
OF the United States than the feuds
OF which that which has just ended is
typical. The actors are of the purest
American blood, the most unmixed
lineage, of any people in the country.
They are forceful, proud and indepen'
dent, and possessed of more than
ordinary natural ability; but they
have lived in isolation, cut off from
the learning OF the schools and al
most everything else which spells
progress. Constant intermarriages
have intensified natural traits and
raised the sense of family solidarity
TO height that has rarely existed
elsewhere except among the Scottish
clans in the days of the border war
fare. 1t has been the family or the
friend against the world, with the Colt
OF the Winchester as the court of last
resort. The end of these feuds, re-
marks the Youths Companion, is I'M.
doubtedly in sight, if it has not al
ready been reached. Even before this
latest murder, public indignation, like
a tide, had been rising slowly and ire
sistibly in Kentucky. 1t had already
sent to the penitentiary for life two Of
the most notorious of the assassins,
and had driven others from the state.
The parricidal bullet may have been
only anticipatory.
