HONEYMOON IN JAIL.

From Missouri comes the account OF
bridegroom who may be made deaf
for life because some grains OF rice
hurled at him by his friends have
lodged against his ear drum.
The other day the news columns told
of bride who was driven insane by
the merry pranks OF cbarivari party.
Only short time before a bridegroom
was seriously injured by the pleas
antries Of his uproarious friends.
Getting married Is. usually, serious
enough business without the extra
hazardous risks to life and limb run
by the happy pair at the hands Of a
wedding party--with doubious sense
OF hunor. 1t begins to look as though
the prudent young married couple
would in the future be compelled to
arrange to spend the honeymoon in a
mobproof jail--where iron bars and a
force OF police with riot guns-would
serve to protect them from their life

FIRST STEP IN
CLEAN Up
PROGRAM

Engineer J. r. Preble, head of
The Green river gravity water sys-
tenn, is out and Assistant City En-
gineer Manley will complete the
plant.
The resignation of Preble Is one
OF the first results of the order
from the other commissioners to
Weeks to "clean up" and get down
to business.
For several weeks an explosion
has been pending.
The commission last spring
questioned Preble's efficiency and
would not proceed until r. H
Thompson of Seattle approved the
rlans. Thompson made several
changes. Commissioner Weeks
made others. But Preble still
held his Job.
TrestIe Is Crumbling.
Recently stories have been com
ing down from the work that in
dicated there was something
wrong. One trestle put in Is said
TO be already crumbling with dry
Tot. The estimates of Pre5le are
way under the expenditures found
necessary.
Contractor Fowler says while
the headworks was supposed to be
Iput in for $65,000 it will COST
three times that amount.
The Royal Arch inspectors en-
ployed by Weeks and kept ON by
Preble also have been falling
Gown, it is said.
So the commission ordered
something done and Preble hand
ed his resignation in and Manley
will finish the job. He will be In
command from today.
Preble will probably continue
until the first of the month ON the
payroll.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Nov. II.
Attorney Walter G. Baiderson
admitted today that Paul Bcattie
made an affidavit in his office
last week repudiating the main
features of his testimony, on which
his cousin, Henry Clay Beattie, jr.,
was convicted of the murder of his
wife near Richmond, Va.
The affidavit was presented to
Governor Mann at Richmond to-
day.
Paul Beattie gave as a reason
for his testimony, which he now
says is false, that he was in a bad
physical condition at the time,
was in great fear as a result of the
suspicious directed toward him,
and was affected by his confine-
ment in jail.
In the affidavit, Paul Beattie
denied that he gave shotgun to

upon stills, is not such an everyday
sight.
This particular kind of watch boy is
