FUN FOR "HAPPY COUPLE"
Modern Wedding Described with Pos
sibly Slight Exaegeration.

The young pair had so many friends
that the police were quite unable to
cope with the situation. The bride
was headed up in barrel and thrown
into the river, while the groom was
bound and gagged and suspended by
his feet from tall tree.
At this point the military was
called out and arrived at double quick
just in time to save the baggage from
being pasted over with insulting pla-
cards.
A number of shot were exchanged.
At late hour the city was reported
quiet and the authorities, though not
denying the popularity of the high
contracting parties, were confident
that there would be no more violence.

A Riddle.

An English paper recently asked its
readers for an answer to the follow
ing riddle:
What does a man love more than life,
Hate more than death or mortal
strife;'
That which contented men desire,
The poor have, and the rich require;
A miser spends, the spendthrift saves,
And all men carry to their graves?
All sorts of answers were sent in,
but the correct one was declared to
be Nothing"

AUTO RACER IS
DASHED TO DEATH
EMANUEL cEDRlNo is KILLED
ON THE PlMLlco TRACK.
WHEEL OF HIS GAR BREAKS
Expert Italian Driver Was Going al
Terrific Speed on the Trials
for Saturdays
Races.

Baltimore, Nd, May 30.--Emanuel
Cedrino, the Italian automobile driver,
was instantly killed on Pimlico race
track Friday evening. He had been
preparing for races In which he was
to have taken part Saturday and was
making some very fast miles.
One mile had Just been finished in
81 seconds and he had passed the
grandstand and rounded the first cor
ner OF the track when spectators saw
his car shoot into the air and turn a
somersault, landing on the track up
side down. Those who rushed to the
spot found Cedrino stretched upon his
back, dead, with horrible cash in
the back Of his head and portions of
MS brains scattered about. He was
some distance from the car, from
which he had apparently been thrown
as 1t went over, and it is supposed
that his head struck the fence.
9 ,st His Brains Dashed Out. a-.. ..
" DR.. Herbert Schoenrich, who was
watching the practice spins of the en-
trants In the races, reached Cedrino's
side almost before the dust OF the
accident had cleared away. He found
that the occipita1 bone had been torn
out entirely and that large portion OF
the brain was also missing.
The accident appears to have been
caused by the collapse Of the front
wheel on the right hand side of the
car 1t was a wooden wheel and
small fragments of It were all that
could be found after the accident. The
tire was found practically intact. The
machine was wrecked.
.r.... Was Going at Great Speed.
Cedrino arrived here Thursday and
had expressed himself as sure to
break the records from one to 25
miles. Earlier in the afternoon he had
made a circuit of the track In Sc Sec
onds. When he brought out his car
for his final work for the day he said
to the promoter of the races that he
liked the track and particularly the
turns, and that he would make a mile
In SO seconds. He made three or four
circuits of the track, each faster than
the preceding one, and at the time of
the accident was probably going at
the rate Of mile in SO seconds.
The car was the one in which he
made all his records and was designed
by Cedrino himself in 1905. He stated
recently that it had been run 5000
miles without material repairs.
Cedrino, several years before his
debut in the United States as an ex-
pert driver in automobile races, was
chauffeur to Queen Helena of Italy.

DENVER GETS CHURCH MEET
BIG PRESBYTERIAN ASSEMBLY,
THERE NEXT YEAR.
Session Is to Convene the Third
Thursday In May, According to
New Rule Decided Upon.

Kansas City, Mo-, May 30.--Denyer
was Friday selected as the city in
which next years general assembly
of the Presbyterian church in the
United States OF America Is to be
held. But one ballot Was taken for
the two contestingt cities,t The vote
was so nearly unanimous that. Seattle
withdrew and the Colorado capital H.
nally was selected with one voice. A
rule was passed providing that the
annual assembly hereafter shall al.
ways convene on the third Thursday
In May.
The invitation Of Denver to enter
tain the great gathering In 1909 was
accompanied with a promise OF a
bonus of $4,000 offered by that city
to entertain the delegates and guests.
In the report OF the committee on
bills and overtures, presented by DR..
William Henry Roberts OF Philadel.
phia, its chairman, Denver was IA
vored. The claims OF that city were
presented strongly by Rev. DR.. Robert
F. Coyle OF Denver, past moderator,
and Rev. DR.. Baxter P. Fullerton Of
st. Louis. the retiring moderator, also
spoke in favor of the Colorado -'ty,
1t was claimed for Denver asid~
the big bonus offered that If the~N
sembly were held there It would cost
much less In the matter Of railroad
fares than the long trip to the Pacific
coast, burden that must fall upon
the churches. Then, also, 1t was ar
gued, the general assembly had never
yet convened In the Rockies, and as
next year would mark the semicenten.
NAL anniversary of the establishment
OF the church In Colorado, II was par.
ticulafly desirous that the meeting
be held there. The first Presbyterian
church was organized In Colorado iua
1859. Rev. DIR. Mark A. Matthews bf,
Seattle made an eloquent plea in be-,
half Of that city. putting forth the
grand climate Of the far northwest
and the unusual beauty spots that 1t
presents.
When the voting began 1t was early.
apparent that the great majority OF
the delegates favored Denver. No
count of the one ballot taken was
kept, but when 1t had been concluded
Rev. Matthews promptly withdrew the
name of Seattle and moved Denver be,
made the selection. This
was done amid great applause.
