CHANCE FOR NEW LIFE
ON A VIRGINIA. FARM
Superintendent of the Central
Union Mission Plans to Res
cue Inebriates.

Rev. F. j. Lukens, superintendent of
the Central Union Mission. has started an
enterprise near Orange Court House, Va.
which has for its object the uplift of men
who are seeking spiritual welfare and
who are also anxious to renew their eff
forts to earn a livelihood.
1t is the intention of the minister to
provide a place where victims of intem-
perance, who have a desire to reform,
may go and be kept away from the temp
tations that are SO often thrown in Their
way in the cities. He will demand OF
such persons that they remain on the
farm at least thirty days.
Take Men From Streets.
a man who has been a victim of
strong drink, the minister said today,
cannot expect to accomplish much in the
way of being uplifted in less than
month. 1t is my intention to cater en-
tirely to those who want to start a new
life, and / am satisfied it will mean the
taking from the streets OF many persons
who should have good homes and sur
roundings.
The minister has purchased tract of
about LOCO acres, the land being about
six miles from the Southern and Chesa-
peake and Ohio railroads ard three miles
away TO prevent those OH the farm from
going where temptation will be in their
way.
Mr. Lukens says he has planned to
make the place self-supporting.
About go acres of land are covered with
heavy timber. while part of the remaining
800 acres is under cuitiva ton. IL is the in
tention of the promoter to put up saw
mill and eventually to utilize the timber
in the construction of buildings on the
farm and bungalows on the sites that
may be sold.
Known as Happy Manor.
The land that is cleared from time to
time will be planted in apples. For more
than 2D years the tract was in the fam
lily Of Dr. Stevens and 1t was known as
Happy Manor regarded as an apprOpr.a ate
name for the religious and uplift institu-
ton. The North Anna river is near the
tract and the north branch of the stream
runs through il.
A fourteen-room brick structure on the
tract is TO be used as the administration
building. Gold ore has been found on the
property. but not in sufficient quantities
There are also granite and soapstone
quarries there.
Arrangements have been made by Mr.
Lukens to take half dozen men to the
future home of those in need. They will!
go there Monday morning. taking with
them a cook and carpenter. and as soon
as the place is in condition to care for
those whom it is intended to help the
number will be increased.

Is Binding.

Notwithstanding that Wien W. Easter
day of the Windsor and Miss Roberta
Coates Of Iowa circle were married late
Thursday afternoon by Rev. c. Herbert
Reese, second curate of Trinity Episco-
pal Church in direct violation of the law
the validity of the marriage is not affect
ed in the least. according to attorneys
who discussed the question today.
The license obtained by the young cou-
pie. who now are in Atlantic City enjoy
ing their honeymoon, bore the name of
the Rev. c. W. Whitmore as the person
chosen to perform the ceremony.
Telephoned for Permit.
Rev. Mr.. Whitmore. who is first curate
of Trinity Church, not being at home when
yesterday and his prospective bride
called, they hurried to the home of the
assistant rector, Rev. Mr.. Reese, who be-
lieved he had fully complied with the
law when he called up the Office of the
clerk of the District Supreme Court and
obtained permission over the telephone to
perform the ceremony. The District code,
however provides that mo person au-
thorized to celebrate the rites of maria ge
shall do SO in any case without having de-
livered to him a. license therefore ad-
dressed to him. under penalty OF not more
than $500, IN the discretion of the court
to be recovered in the Police Court of the

Rev. Mr.. Reese called at the Office of
the clerk In the city hall this morning,
where the irresuiarity was corrected by
having the name of Rev. Mr.. Whitmore
stricken out Of the marriage license end
