DIRECTING MOTHER
MADE TO SEE LIGHT

An irate mamma, on Monday night,
tore her daughter, age sixteen years,
from the bridal board at which she
sat, and left in consequence large
gap in the heart of young Hawaiian
who had just had the fortune to be-
come her husband. The celebrative lu-
au was being given by the parents of
the groom who were well pleased at
the match and had not the mother of
the bride interfered it would have
proceeded with all possible smoothness.
Through the efforts of Captain Baker
of the police force, the quarrel has
been patched up and the obstreperous
mother has been made to see that had
the marriage not taken place, the end
of the universe had come for two true
and tender hearts. She viii now add
another luau on her own account.

Welded UNDER PATHETIC
CONDITIONS IN FRANCE
Ceremony Performed With Bridegroom
Under Escort of Gendarmes.

GENEVA, December IA wedding
has taken place under pathetic circum-
stances at st. Julien, French town a
few miles from Geneva. The bride
groom was an Italian named Pramot-
ton, who is awaiting trial for murder.
Mile. PICARD, Pramotton's sweet
heart, refused to accede to the wishes
of her family and break the engage
ment, and she agreed to marry him
this week. The ceremony took place at
the town hall, where the bridegroom
appeared escorted by two gendarmes.
An affecting scene followed the we'd
ding when the bride begged the gen
darmes to release her husband, declar.
ing that he was not guilty of muir
der. Eventually, Pramotton was taken
back to jail TO await trial.

UNITED DOCTORS
CHIEF STILL in COURT
Prosecutor Again Delays the
Trial in Spite Of the
Doctors Protests.

The case of the state against DIR. r.
D. Walsworth (chief physician to the
United Doctors Istitute at $40 Kan
sas ave.) was called Friday morning
on the docket of the court of Tope-
ka, the defense answered ready for
trial, but the prosecution again asked
for a continuance saying that they
had as yet been unable to get the
evidence in the case they desired The
court granted them another contin-
uance and set the case for Nov Sth.
The doctor says he regrets very much
that the case did not come to trial
as he feels that he will have no trou-
BILE in esta blishing the fact that he has
complied with the law in every way
If he can only get into court with his
evidence. So confident is the doctor
of his aequittal that he has not SO
far even employed an attorney to de-
fend him, being willing to leave 1t
to the court to decide from the evil
dence. He says he believes that the
courts of Kansas are in the habit of
dealing out justice, and that is all he
is asking for. \ The doctor says he is
continually securing offers of assis-
lance and expressions of good will, of
which the following letter from a
merchant at Olsburg. Kan, is fair
sample. it reads: Dear Doctor: just
read of your arrest, and I want you
to prepare another months treat
ment for me. I am getting along
splendidly, improving all thestime and
I want to keep up the treatment OF
course I know you are regularly IL
seen your certificate and license, but
even if you were not, after what your
treatment has done for me, I would
still be for you and would continue
your treatment.

threatened with extinction The people
are passionately fond of this pretty
little bird. but year by year the num-
Der deminishes It is said that the
bird was formerly so plentiful that
the poor could eat them occasional
ly. If what a French contemporary
says be true. the sooner the bird be-
comes extinct the better. unless the
authorities intervene and make an end
to the cruelty which We are told is
practiced.
The ortolan forms a dish for cpl
cures, and this is the terrible story
of how tn birds are fattened. They
are Melted in large numbers, and au-
thorities are agreed that they are
fattened by being placed in cages in
dark rooms or cellars. But to make
the process of fattening a success.
