AN OLD NEWSPAPER.
MIR. Ruggles Has an Interesting Relic
He Prizes Highly.

Mr.. RuggIes Has an Interesting Relic
He Prizes Highly.
Mr. F. A. Ruggles of this city has
copy of the Vicksburg Daily Citi-
zen dated July 2, 1868, the day be-
fore the surrender of Vicksburg to
General Grant and his forces. The
paper, which is printed on wall pa
per, evidently did not "get off, the
press, however, until the day after
that historic event, as the following
item appears at the foot of one of
the columns:
'NOTE.-July 4th, 1863. Two
days bring about great changes. The
banner of the Union floats over Vicks-
burg. Gen. Grant has Caught the
rabbit; he has dined in Vicksburg,
and he did bring his dinner with
him. The Citizen lives to see it..
For the last time it appears on wall
paper. No more will it eulogize the
luxury of mule meat and fricasseed
kitten-urge Southern warriors to
such diet nevermore. This is the last
wallpaper Citizen, and is, excepting
this note, from the types as we found
them. 1t will be valuable hereafter
as a curiosity"

On January 30th at D. m. the
marriage VOWS of Mr.. William Wesley
Massey and Miss Charlie Claude Har-
rls were plighted at the home of the
brides father, Hon. c. M. Harris, in

formed the wedding ceremony in a
beautiful and impressive manner,
during which soft music was played
on the piano. After Mr.. O'Keiley
congratulated the truly happy pair
he introduced them to the assembled
guests, and then the ball of mirth
rolled freely.
rms was another surprise wedding,
as 1t was to have been a church af-
fair on February oath; but Mr.. Mas
sey insisted on biblical authority that
1t is not good for man to dwell
alone" and proceeded to draw the
date up.
For the occasion the bride was
gowned in Alice blue silk with motifs
of lace. Her jewels were diamonds,
being gifts from her father, and
others from Mr.. Massey. Miss Har-
ris wore white lingerie, and was
picture of girlish innocence and beau
ty.
Mrs. Massey, as Miss Claude Har-
ris, numbered her friends over half
the state. Her sweetness of charac-
ter and her life of real piety and de-
votion to duty rendered her a favor

LIFT NO MORE LOOSE COINS
Postmaster Lewis Receives New In
structions, Effective Feb. 18th,
For Rural Carriers,

structions, Effective Feb. 18th,
For Rural Carriers.
postmaster Lewis has received in
structions from the postofice DEPART
ment at Washington that on and
after February 18th rural letter car
riers will not be required to collect
loose coins from rural mail boxes
placed therein for the purpose of
stamp supplies and money orders.
When, however, patrons enclose
CONS IN an envelope, wrap them Sc
curely in a piece of paper or de-
poslt them in coin-holding re-
ceptacle, so they can be easily and
quickly taken from boxes, carriers
will be required to lift such coins
and, where accompanied by mail for
dispatch, attach the requisite stamps.
The order is based on the ground
that the abuse of the privilege has
grown so great as to make it an I'M
just burden upon rural carriers, es-
peclally in bad weather, and cause
delay in the delivery of the mail.
lnstancing the extent to which the
ABUSE mas grown records of the de-
partment show where as many as 1919
l-cent coins have been collected from
boxes by carrier on single trip,
and thirty-eight coins have been
taken from single box at one time
for as many post cards.
Complaints against the practice
are general, and from reports which
have been received and estimates
based thereon the rural letter car
riers throughout the country are re-
quired to take from boxes in the
course of a year the tremendous to-
tai of 3OO,O0O,OOO 1-cent coins.
