Thomas McLemore Rogers, of Flor

ed on the evening of Tuesday, April

The surrender of this lovely and

by the closest bonds that affection
may forge.
All of the brief life of the only

Rod she has spent season abroad,
Miss Minis has held place with the

the grace of her manner being equal
to the charm of her person, and thus
won the esteem as well as the admi.
ration of all her friends.
To face the early REIMBURSEMENT of
this daughter of Jackson is no pleas
ing matter, but because of the splen-
did worth of the man whom she has
chosen os lord of her life,' and be-
cause her happiness will be consum-
mated by this marriage, we join our
congratulations to those which her
other friends will this morning hast
en- to offer her, and with them every
wish for the Joy of life which she SO
richly deserves.
The marriage of these young peo-
pei will be celebrated in the First

ceremony will be marked by extreme
simplicity it will of course he as
beautiful as youth and elegance of
taste can make it.
Following the church service there
will be reception at the home in
Fairfield, to which there will he no
invitations whatsoever, beyond the
limitations of the families and the
members of the bridal party.--Jack-

WILSON NOT TOO RADICAL.

3 . s. .
Woodrow Wilson, in his address to
the members of the IroQuois club, IN
Chicago, Monday night, did not take
an ultra-radical stand on any Of the
questions confronting the nation. In
fact, his talk sounded not much diff
ferent than those delivered by con-
servatively progressive leaders in
both great parties. He was not as
radical as either La Toilette or Bry-
an, but rather left the impression
that he wished to be considered no
more radical than either Taft or Har-
mon. He declared business should be
protected, that there should be no
ill-considered changes, and that the
tariff should be revised gradually in
order that business could not be an
jured. Wilson thus gives evidence of
a desire not to be considered as an
extremist. Inasmuch as he is OPP
posed to the recall of the judiciary
as we'll as opposed to radical and
hurried changes in methods Of doing
business, he will have to- be taken
out of the class OF radical politicians.

Strange Are Fancies Of the Inventor.
Necessity may be the mother of in
vention, though of this there is recur-
ring doubt, but evidently that stern
goddess concerns herself only limit
edly with patents. Among the $4,000
patents at present registered the
Patent Office Gazette finds numerous
examples whose conception no neces.
sity could be brought to foster.
Here is q strange one that was
actually patented-a scheme for con-
trolling horses by electricity. II the
animal balks, a powerful and we'll
placed shock will make him spring
forward in spite of himself. If he tries
to kick, his muscles will be cramped
by a paralyzing charge Of electricity.
Instead OF bride and reins. the all
powerful current may be used to give
him shock on the left cheek in order
to turn into the right fork Of the road,
or on the right to make him take a
left turn. Instead Of saving away at
the lines, the driver may sit back in
comfort, and. by means OF push but.
tons, "typewrite" the beast into sub
mission.

AZ BEFORE file FRENCH REvo.
2, ItIrION

There are things said at the pres,
emit time akin to things said just
prior to the French Revolution, and
in my opinion there is danger. dc
not want to wave the flag of dis.
tress, but the situation appears ser.
ious to me. Unless capitalists, cor.
porations, men of great wealth and
power, take leading position in i'm
proving conditions from time to
time, there will be changes made lat
er on by the mob.-Judge Gary at
the Lehigh Club dinner. u
There are also conditions now
which are akin to conditions just
prior to the French Revolution.
One OF the things reformers then
had to work against was the practi-
cal exemption Of the nobility and
wealth from taxation.
We in this country have Federal
system of taxation which loads the
great. cost OF the National Govern
ment on the consumption OF the
masses, and local systems Of taxa
ton which, through rents and prices,
filter the great costs. of local govern
ment down to the same thing. 1t is
a combined system of taxing the peo-
pie according to their needs and not
their wealth. sG.
What then? Shall the, Judge Garys
leave their beautiful altruism at the
banquet table and go forth to defeat
the income-tax amendment, through
which some little measure OF this
cost of government may be placed
exclusively on wealth?-New York

WHY THE WEST is MORE PRO:
@ eREss1vE THAN THE EAST.

The West lis more progressive than
the East. That is conceded fact,
and there is reason tor it. The
vigorous and ambitious young men
and women OF the East became the
pioneer settlers Of the West about SO
years ago, and it is easy to under
stand why their children are more
progressive than the children OF
those who remained to work in the
big unhealthy factories, or exc out
an existence on the stoney hill sides
Of New England and Atlantic states.

SHE FINISHED Her DRINK
Fifty Yeats Hau INTERVIEWED but the
Courteous Old Gentleman
Came 10 tho Rescue.

It was at a reception of the twen-
tieth century kind that the white
haired man and the little old lady with
the point lace collar were chatting in
corner where the palms stood They
belonged to the present day only be-
cause they lived in it and tried to
make its interests theirs. but when
you looked at the little old lady you
Immediately thought of lavender and
rose jars. You knew also that the
white-haired man would kiss her fin
ger tips in Difference when he left
her unless somebody from the modern
throng restrained him, and you knew
he was talking to her in phrases that
belonged to day Of gallantry that
had gone. =
4 Once during their chat the little
lady tapped his arm with her fan, just
as they always do in story books. and
said: "Ah, but you're forgetting I'm
an old woman. On the 2lst day of
this very month shall have ',ean mar
ried fifty years." and she drew back
from him and looked tito his face

glass-and oh! it was good! Then.
for some reason or other as turned
aside, my glass was taken away and
/ never had the remainder of that de.
lightful drink" And the little old
lady sighed in retrospect.
The crowd in the reception room
moved closer and soon the two were
absorbed by it and disappeared.
On the morning of the 21st of the
month two parcels were among the
mail delivered to the little lady of the
point lace. One was box containing
small golden spoon and with it the
cards of the white-haired man and
wife, and their formally /. expressed
congratulations upon her annivers-

bottle OF champagne of the size that

note-"that glass they took away
