Fl encargado de la guardia del arse
nal del honor, era maese Elias kopp.
Los grupos estaban repartidos en-
I'm simpatico desorden: alrededor
, de ciertas mesas reinaba una inerte
somnoiencia.
Sc bebia Sc fumaba, sc callaba.
Junto al mostrador de maese E.
las Kopp, VINO, ,lejos del arsenal del
honor, haliabase ocupada una mesa
por cineo Q seis jovenes que rodea-
ban a uno de sus camaradas envuei-
to en- una capa, color de escariata.
El estudiante vestido de esta ma
nera, habfa reempiazado su pequeha
gorra universitaria por I'm ancho fiel-
tro de viaje; podrfa contar sobre u
nos vicente amos, y sus acciones, de II
una regularidad masculine, expresa-
ban en- su armonioso conjunto la
fogosidad del joven, moderada por
esfuerzos de una firmeza superior a
su edad.
Su mirada era orguliosa e impera-
tiva, su boca parecfa deber abrlrse
tan solo para el mandate.
Cuando Sc disipaban por interva-
los los espesos nubarroneS de humo,
era faci divisar, aunque vagamente,
otros dos estudiantes vestidos con ca
pas encarnadas, y los cuales al traves
de la nebulosa estancia parecfan ser
tan solo una doble reproduction del
primero.
Pero no tardaban en- volverse 4
encender las pipas; condensabase en-
tonces la atm6sfera mas y mas, E in
terceptabanse las miradas de los Gu
riosos, sin que les fuese facll dlstin-
guir NADIA.
De nuevo Sc vefan aquelIas dos co
pias cuando sucedfa la cEaridad a las
tinieblas.
Una de elias aparecia sentada
junto a una mesa de juego.
La otra gesticulaba en- medic de
I'm grupo ocioso y chariatan, comen
tador de aventuras galantes.
Esta copia del primer estudiante
entreabrfa sus labios con una sonri-
sa extraha, brilIaba en- su mirada un
rayo de atolondramiento Y fanfarro
neria.
Diferenciabase tambien la otra c(
pia del original. pero no en- ell mlsm'
sentido, por cierto; no Sc podia lee
en- su rostro ninguna de las emociont
propias del juego, y vacilaba uno ira
otro sus vases, pero sin hallar en- e

UNIQUE WEDDING
AT GLASGOW, KY.
SANTA CLAUS CELEBRATION Is
WOUND UP WITH A WEDDING
CEREMONY.

GLASGOW. KY, Dec. 27.-One OF
the most unique weddings ever sol
emnized took place in the large Cir
cult Court room here yesterday. The
contracting parties were Willie Bor-
ders and Miss Malissa Carver, who
live in the southern part of the coun-
ty.
Several hundred children had as
sembled at the courthouse to receive
presents, it being an annual custom
for all poor children to meet there.
When the couple applied to J. A. MUIR
ray, the County Court Clerk, he con-
ceived the plan of having them marry
in the presence of the children and
after little persuasion they agreed.
Mr.. Murray arrangd for the young
lady to sing three selections for the
children, which she did, after which
the marriage took place
Mrs. Borders has quite reputa-
ton in this part OF the State as a
singer and her singing just before the
marriage was pronounced the effort Of
her life.

HOLIDAY CROWD
WAS WELL BEHAVED
POLICE DECLARE THEY NEVER
SAW SUCH AN ORDERLY LOT
or SHOPPERS.

Members Of the police, force say
that the crowd here Christmas eve.
considering the number Of people
here and the season. was the best be-
haved and most orderly they have ever
seen in Columbia. There was not an
arrest during the day and signs Of
any drinking whatsoever were rare
indeed The crowd was q jolly one
and in good spirits all the time, but
there spirits were natural and in keep
ing with the occasion. There were
no signs Of disorderly conduct, every
one was polite and all 1t seemed were
bent on their preparations to observe
the Christmas season sanely and to-
ward making others enjoy the occa-
sion.

HIS SPOUSE.

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 25.-Mrs
Bertha May Stone of Uniontown, Pa,
may be in Indianapolis, and If she is
the police department will go pellmell
in her direction. as there is a reward
of $500 for information concerning
her whereabouts. The woman is the
wife of w. A. Stone, millionaire coal
operator of Unfontown, and he has
employed no fewer than thirty detec-
tives to trace the woman. The Union
town detectives agency of Indianap-
oils, which is branch of an agency
in Pittsburg, has received word that
Mrs. Stone may be in Indianapolis,
and that every effort should be made
to find her. Incidentally the reward
is a good one.
Circulars being the pictures of Mrs.
Stone and Emery Martin, with whom
she is supposed to be, have been sent
to both the detective agency and the
police department. The detectives
working on the case said Mrs. Stone

At The National Capital.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 25.-Christ
mas at the National Capital waf
marked by an almost complete cessa
ton of business, both oficial and pri
vate, in its stead there was substi
tuted the time-honored observance OF
the gladstone day Nature combined
to give an added effect to the joyous
occasion by covering the city with a
mantle Of SHOW. and the jingle OF
sleigh bells was everywhere heard,
AS has been the case in years past,
interest centered in what the ofdcial
families were doing. President and
Mrs. Roosevelt gave a large family
luncheon to a few intimate friends.
and tonight they dined with Rear Ad-
miral and Mrs. Cowles.
Most of the Cabinet folks were here,
the only absentees being Secretary Of
War Wright and Mrs. Wright, who
celebrated the day at their home in
Memphis; Attorney General and Mrs.
Bonaparte, who are at their home in
Baltimore; Secretary Newberry, who
was the guest OF the Detroit Club in
his native city, and Postmaster Cen
eral Meyer, who has gone on brief
hunting trip.
