Wanamaker Celebrates His
Seyenty-f0urth Birthday

ATLANTIC CITY. July 12.-John
Wanamaker celebrated his seventy
fourth birthday here yesterday at his
summer villa, in Pacific avenue near
Chelsea. Except for congratulatory
messages and the many visitors who
dropped in during the afternoon to
pay their respects Mr.. Wanamaker
spent the day the same as any other
Of the year.
For the greater part Of the morning
he was out on the boardwalk, and
in the afternoon he was found chat
ting with Mrs. Wanamaker seated
on the porch. Although perfectly
good-natured about it, Mr.. Wanna
maker refused to be interviewed.
"Td rather not" he said. Then he
chatted quite pleasantly about the
weather, but steered clear of politics
and business. The ex-postmaster-
general thoroughly enjoyed himself,
taking a quiet rest again last night
on the veranda OF his cottage.

Again on Trial for Life

MOBILE, July 12.-For the second
time In her life. Mary T. Godau. an
aged woman. was placed on trial for
murder yesterday. She is accused of
having killed her son-in-law, Fred

she shot in self-defense. The prose-

FOR HUGG|NG A GIRL

NEW YORK, July 12.-Either the
heat or an overdemonstrative nature
was the undoing of John G.. Becker,

witch Baptist Church, read the abbre-
Waited form of marriage service, and
comment was made later by the
members of the wedding party at his
omission of the word 'obey" from
the service.

heiress wife was that she had refused
to obey him.

SANGfRS TO BUILD.
l. b. Perrine, Who Sold His Tract of
Land at Twin Falls, Is in the City.

l. B. Perrine of Twin Falls, who is in
the city on business, is highly optimis-
tic over the prospects of his section of
the country this coming spring.
Within the past 10 days. said Mr.
Perrine, 1--WE have had noticeable
change in business, which was for a
time little SLOW Our hotels have
been simply crowded during this time
and people from all over the country
are flocking in. The outlook for ac-
tivity in real estate this coming spring
is excellent. A number of deals are
pending on the north side tract which
will be consummated in the near fu-
ture."
One of the best things in business
activity at Twin Falls has been the big
sale made by Mr.. Perrine week ago,
when he sold to w. E. Sanger and J. c.
Sanger Of the state Of Washington, 80
acres OF land Immediately adjoining
Twin Falls, for 100000.
This is Carey act land" said Mr..
Perrine, land when you consider that
| paid $25 an acre for it eight years
ago and am now selling it for $3.50 an
acre, you will have some idea of values
in our section"
Mr. Perrine says that it Is the in
tention of the Sangers to divide this
land into town lots and Immediately
make an addition to the city. Mr.. Per-
rine believes this will bring many new
settlers to the city, and it alone will
add much to the prosperity of the
place.-Statesman
