who operated it for several years,
and after his death the place was
sold to Mr.. Gordon, formerly chef
at the Pavilion. This deal was
made about four years ago and since

good business until the announce

the hands of W. n. Theriault, ref
cree in bankruptcy, and the pros

to evening suppers, ordered by par
ties N advance, while the regular

it was a surprise to everyone, since
it was not known until a few hours
before the ceremony that Mr.. Nc
Adow was in town. The wedding
was extremely quiet aud informal,
only the brides family and the men,
bers of Sigma Psi sorority being the
witnesses.
The bride is tue Youngest daughter
of Judge j. E, Burden, aud is held
in high esteem by all her acquain-
tances for her graces and accomplish
ments. She was educated In the
public schools of Lexington and
Central college, where she was gradu.
ated in piano music. She is attrac.
tive in every way and Mr.. Meadow
is deserving of congratulatlon for
securing her as his bride.
The groom is a young man with the
brightest of prospects. he: is an
alumnus of Virginia Military insti.
tute and a member of Kappa Alpha
fraternity. After three years of ser
vice as an officer in the Philippine
Constabulary be accepted a position
in Wentworth Military academy
where he taught during the pas
year. He won the admiration of al

Born In Lexington.

Monday another transportation
line for Lexington was born. The
infant is not a sturdy little ''cuss'' as
the people of Lexington would wish,
but, a tiny little spark of expectancy
that will require the tender nursing
of every man, woman and child in
Lexington and vicinity before it can
zoe and cry like a normal child.
The committee appointed to receive
aud decide upon propositions for
transportation lines met Monday
n voted to accept the one offered
by Capt. Belt, viz; The people of
Lexington and Odessa to raise s75, 900
and give the r~ight-ot-way for an
electric or motor line between the
two points, the money payable when
the line is completed and in operation
and subscribers receiving dollar for
dollar in stock of the road. The only
out and out gift will be the right of
way.
In years past strangers have exper-
fenced little trouble in unloading
gold bricks aud stocks of fake con-
Germs upon the moneyed men of this
community and at the present day it
is whispered that the "plckiu" is still
good. Here is a home proposition for
our gambling Instincts; one which if
consumated will prove a blessing to
your own people, a panacea for a great
many of our Ills. The infaut should
live. Let's gamble on the result any
way. II we lose it will be for a good
cause and II we win Lexington will be
put on the map and everyone will be
benefited
