WEDDING OF \
PROMINENT COUPLE
miss Marion Forsyth, Formerly of
Brownsville, Weds Lawrence FOn-
taine of III PaSO.

The marriage of Mr. Lawrence
FOntaine of this city and Miss Mari
an Forsyth of League City was sol
emnized in Ell PasO on Monday. The
bride was on a visit to her uncle,
Col Houston, in command at Fort
Bliss, and although the engagement
of this young couple was known
among their intimate friends the
wedding came as a surprise, as it
was expected to take place on the
return of the bride to her home. Mr..
Fontaine is the second son of Col.
and Mrs. Sidney FOntaine of this
city and belongs to one of the old
aristocratic families of the state.
The bride is the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Forsyth, originally of Browns
vile, Tex. and comes of an equally
as prominent family, whose male
members have all distinguished
themselves in the United States
army. A host of good wishes go
to them in their new home.-El PasO

Brownsville friends remember af-
fectiOnately Miss Marion Forsyth,
the young daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles A Forsyth, who moved from
here several years ago, and now re
side at League City, Texas.

FIRE-FIGHTING MACHINE.
Automobile Which Combines III
Kinds OF Apparatms

l. A. Howe of indianapolis Of the
Howe Engine Company is here i'll
1erviewing the fire department about
up-to-date fire fighting machines.
MIR. Howe met the civic committee
of the Business Mems Club, the
heads of the fire department and sew
eral members of the city council Sat
urday afternoon and explained his
proposition Yesterday he was
present at the meeting of the city
council for the same purpose. Mr.
HOwe's company makes a machine in
the shape OF an automobile which IS
equipped with the necessary fire
lighting apparatus and which ap
pears to be the most modern i'm
prGyement in this line yet produced
The cost OF the machine is between
$4,000 and $1,000. If it is all that
is claimed for it, Brownsville would
do well to make such an investment
as the city has great need of proper
facilities for protection from fire.

Essay on Hens.

A city newspaper" boy thus writes
Of hens:
'"The hen Is the female sex Of the
rooster. She Is very useful when you
want eggs. which are sometimes 40
cents dozen. and are unwholesome
II eaten copoiusly when they are hard
boiled. The hen frequents barns
and others agricultural places and is
always hungry except when she Is get
ting at which time she becomes much
irritated and will inflict severe inju-
ries on you II you attempt to caress
her. Once my Uncle Betram had a
hen that set for five weeks on a wal
nut two boot heels and a glass stop
per-. She did not hatch anything.
From that We learn that we should
have some great object in life and
stick to it. Let us be punctual in our
attendance at school and mind our
beloved teacher. Some hens have
feathers all the way down their legs.
To tell when a hen Is done you cook
her five or six hours and then stick
a fork into her chest, but prefer a
nice piece of custard pie."-The Ru-
ralist.
