The principals in the ceremony were
MIR. Jacob Pfaff of Linton and Miss
Elizabeth Harr of Eureka. The cere-
mony uniting the two young people
for life was performed by the Rev.
A. "A. Boschee, the Evangelical min
lister. About two hundred people
attended the wedding. The brides
maids were the Misses Paulina Pfatf
and Jennie Schenckenberger. and the
groomsmen Messrs. Matthias Reich
and John Pfaff. A splendid we'd
ding feast was provided for the as
sembled guests.
A large number of valuable and
useful presents were made to the
bride. A feature of the occasion
was the friendly competition at the
auction Of the brides shoe, which
sold for fifteen dollars. Another
pleasing old-time German custom
was the auction sale of the brides
cake, which was run UP to 2l.7O.
However. the buyer did not try to
put the big cake in his pocket to be
eaten between meals, but it was cut
up Just the same and partaken of by
the guests.
The young husband and wife will
take up their residence on the A..

Albert Haak arrived in Linton
yesterday evening, and will leave to-
day for his home at Hull. He is re-
turning from visit Of about five
weeks at Big Timber and other Mon
tana points. He spent some time
at Big Timber with his wife's pa
rents, Mr.. and Mrs. Sinnema, who
formerly lived in Emmons county
but who went to Montana to reside
about five years ago. Mr.. Haal
says the dry farming system is
proving great boon to those farm
ers in Montana who are SO situated
that their land cannot be irrigated.
He brought back with him a sample
of very good wheat that was grow
on dry-farmed land.

A Notable Came Of Bridge.

The expert on Bridge Whist, Mr. r.
II Foster, contributes an interesting
bridge story to the July American
Magazine One of the exciting incl
dents OF bridge gnme is as follows
Accordingly, be cut into the next
rubber and the points were raised to
ten cents. BusGirk cut the u S. Con.
sui, who got the deal Among the spec
tators there was quite a little buzz Of
excitement when the points were raised
10 ten cents and the Judge, who was
looking on, al " his chair closer.
Some Of AIr. Buskrk's opening leads
were certainly calculated to excite ad
miration il one may measure the merit
of . beginning by a successful ending.
The player on his right having made it
mo trump, Mr.. Buskirk promptly doubled
holding Six clubs to the ace king, three
spades TO the jack and two small cards
in each Of the red suits
The dealer redoubled holding four
clubs to the queen nine, four spades to
the queen iack ten and the ace king
queen of both red suits. AIR Buskirk
hesitated a moment and then redoubled,
which made the well-dressed man behind
him gasp. The dealer Tedoubled again,
whereupon dummy protested aud wish
ca to avail himself of the rule permit
ting a player TO object to doubling be-
yond hundred points trick The
dealer Immediately offered to assume
the responsibility and informed air.
Buslirk that he could proceed If he
wished TO.
after thanking the dealer for his
generosity he did redoube, aud the deal
er then thought he had had enough,
the odd trick being worth three hum
bred and eighty -four points, or a hun.
bred and ninetytwo dollars To him, as
he was taking both ends
@To the astonishmeDt of both the
well-dressed man and the gambler who
stood beside him, Mr.. Buskirl did not
lead his club suit, but started with the
jack Of spades, Dummy laid down three
small spades, five Of each red suit, and
no clubs. Third hand, who was the
player from the Racquet club, won the
first trick with the King of spades and
then stopped to do a little thinking.
The Judge nudged the lame man, who
was falling asleep, and whispered that
the leader must have made one of those
rotten short suit openings
Finally after due consideration Of
the dummys cards, third hand returned
the Jack Of clubs.
The dealer covered, with the queen
nine and two small in his hand BUS
kirk won with the king and at once led
another spade. Third hand won this
and led the ten Of clubs without hest
tation, as if the situation were now
clear to him. The ten held, so he led
the trey, and Buskirk's ace and seven
picked up The dealers nine and four,
making four more club tricks; two by
cards against the declaration.

. MAGAZINE REVIEW.



In "The Fortifying Principle in
Swinburne,D a brilliant article by Louise
Collier Wilcox In the July number Of
The North American Review, we have
glimpse Of the philosophy underlying
the material masterpieces Of the late
poet, Mrs. Wilcox observes;
TO those who have ofgce absorbed
the philosophy OF Browning, Mr.. Swim
buTne offers the next step upward.
Browning assured us, with every aspect
of full conviction, that there should
never be one lost good; that EVIL is
null, is nauQht, is silence implying
sound;' that what was good shall be
good, with for evil so much good more;
on earth the broken arcs, in heaven the
perfect round" Since II was impossible
TO close The eyes TO the imperfections
of this life, Browning accepted evil as
d finite misconception, Just our human,
limited way Of seeing the fragrant in
stead Of the whole; and the number Of
struggling and stumbling beings whom
he set on their feet BY his wide, conr-
ageous outlook, by his staunch promises
Of future completion, by his hearty
explanation that all the Joy of growth
and progress depended on a mans reach
exceeding his grasp must never be I'M
derestimated or forgotten Mr.. Swim
bune's offering was different one.
His poetic deliverance was far more
spontaneous, more inspired, more per-
feet than Brownmg's; and, once the
little matter Of Brownings elisions
mastered, Mr.. Swinburne was frequent
" more difficult TO follow owing to the
wealth Of imagery and the magnifcence
Of vital felicities in which his thought
went clothed"

ties have attracted his notice. There

How The Cows Escaped at Gettysburg.

How the Cows Escaped at Gettysburg.
We had an old COW that had been in
the family for years, and the morning.
Of the first day Of the fight we had put
her in pasture as usual This pasture
was near the edge Of the town. Of
course, we saw nothing of her during the
three days Of fighting. Often one Of US
would say, Il wonder what has become
81 the old cow" The general opinion
was that we had seen the last of her.
On the morning Of the fourth day, father,
my brother and / took q walk over the
field to see if we could find any trace
0f her We saw many terrible sights.
Dead soldiers were lying around thick,
dead horses, and many COW skins and
heads; from this last we soon came to
the conclusion that our COW had been
killed for food ike the rest, so we gave
ar up. AS we we're eating supper one
evening a week Or more after the battle,
we heard a familiar believing in the
street. Everybody sprang from the Ia
Die and rushed out There stood our
dear old COW, looking as happy as it is
possible for a COW to look at being home
again. We petted and Rugged her IN
our pleasure at finding her alive, and
soon had her in the stable in her own
familiar stall. Then we discovered that
she had a bullet-hole in her neck and one
ID her side She was not severely hurt.
however, and both bullets came out even
tually We found out later that all
the cows in that particular field had got
out in some way the fret day Of the
fight and had wandered of about ten
miles from town, beyond the firing line.
After the battle they all found their
way back TO town Albertus McCreary

One in Every Eight Women Past IS Dies
Of Cancer.

In all probability, cancer IS the worst
physical soourge with which we have 70
deal. 1t annually destroys half al many
lives as tuberculosis but it is an even
greater menace, because, whereas the
mortality from tuberculosis steadily de-
creases year by year. that from cancer
steadily increases. The actual facts
even medical men themselves hesitate to
discuss. How many realize, for example,
that. in England, of all women who have
reached the age al thirty-ive years, one
in every eight dies Of cancer, and one
III every eleven meng Yet the latest Off
cial report Of the registrar general OF
England coldly declares that this is the
present situation. Whether the same
figures apply to the United States cam
not be determined with available statis-
tics; but as living conditions and medi-
cal practice represent about the same
standards in both countries, the proba-
bility Is that they do.-Bnrton ]. Hem
