A MODERN LADY OF LYONS.

The danger of hasty marriages
rarely has been more clearly demon
strated than in the case Of the fash
ionable Chicago Divorce who eloped
to Crown Point, Ind. with a man
whom she believed to be a son Of
Marshall M. Kirkman, former vice
president of the Northwestern Rail-
road company. but who proved to be
Kirkman's discharged chauffeur.
This modern repetition of the story
Of the Lady of Lyons should furnish
food for thought to young girls who
resent the advice Of their parents in
regulating their acquaintance. Many
modsrn girls look upon their parents
- "oId fogies' when they insist on
knowing al shout tho a~ntecedents of
yeuaS men friends. but this 10 the only
Wsy IN which deception and wrstched-
paO can be avoided.

 No Loss of Life.

Wausau, Wis.,, July 24.-Loss esti- mated at $1,000,000 was done to the industries of Wausau today by the giving away of the enormous power dams north of this city. Worse than the financial loss directly due to the breaking dams, however, is the prob lem of the great paper mills near the clty, which are operated by power from the ruined dams With orders ah9ad for paper for newspapers in many parts of the country which de- pend upon Wausau for their daily supply, the Wausau paper mills which own a great plant, the largest west of Massachusetts, is crippled by the giving away of it's dam, which backs water up the Wisconsin river for five miles and which stretches across the iver for half mile at the famous old Little Grand Rapids.
 The city is without electric lights, power, gas or street car service. The water has surrounded the waterworks plant and the supply is cut off.
 A volume of water swept down the river early Wednesday morning. The streets of Wausau and also the river front are all under water The city hall is surrounded and business is paralyzed. No loss of life has been reported.
 In the north end of the city the manufacturing and resident sections arc flooded for distance of five and six blocks, reaching nearly to the baseball park.

WiITE BULL MOOSE
 CALL A MEETING
SUPPORTERS ANNOUNCE GATHER. ING FOR ALL IRRESPECTIVE
 OF PARTY AFFILIATIONS.
Meet Saturday Night-No Negroes Will Be Recognized But They
 Will Meet Elsewhere.

With an invitation to those who want a square deal, who believe "bossism must go' and who have confidence in the ability of Colonel Theodore Roosevelt and in his will lngness to institute needed reforms and to administer affairs of the nat ion on nonsectional lines," call, signed by Captain R. M. Galbraith as chairman, is issued this morning for meeting to be held at the court house Saturday night at o'clock, at which time delegates will be selected to attend state convention of third partyites to he held in Little Rock Ju- ly 30, which will in turn send dele gates to the national conyenting of the National Progressive party in Chicago in August.
 In other words the Bull Moose,'' born at the Republican national con- vention has again moosed his way into Pine Bluff with practically all of the white Republicans, or former Republicans, as his stable boys.
 This is the second convention call ed to be held in this city on next Sat urday. The first was issued several days ago by negro adherents of the father of the Bull Moose Their meet ing will be held at the Miller Theater Saturday morning. They, too, will elect delegates to the state convention called by J. A. Conner, of Little Rock, who is slowly recovering from the effects of the "squashing" he received at the hands of the "Steam Roller" when he represented the Roosevelt delegates who attempted to gain rec ognition by the National Committee of the G. o. P.
 The prospects of two delegations, one black and the other white, Icing sent from Jefferson county to the Lit tie Rock meeting will be an occasion that will be watched with interest by Democrats. Only one delegation can be seated as each county is allowed a certain number of representatives, and this mere fact gives promise of a predicament the final adjudication of which will perhaps cause the unseat- ed Bull Moose adherents to become disgruntled and thereby repudiate the Oyster Bay leader.
 With one or two exceptions the white Republicans in this city, most VI 0lC OuSlIcSS HIGH, have declared themselves for Colonel Roosevelt. They have only been wait ing for the call to rally to the banner of the third party
 ''This call is the official one for the formation of the new party in this city and county" said H. Bringman, secre- tary of the Roosevelt club, last night. We do not recognize any other. The time has come when party lines must ,be brushed aside and the time has come when we must support men who stand for the remedies so badly need ed by our present form of govern ment."
